When generating _end, _edata, etc. symbols, and a version script provides
a version name, and we are linking against another shared library that
provides those symbols with a different version, gold ends up trying to
resolve the other shared library's symbols to the new definitions, resulting
in two copies of each symbol, one as default, and one as non-default.
This patch tests for that condition, and ignores the symbols provided
by the other shared library.

When we have a weak reference to a symbol defined in an
as-needed library, and that library ends up not-needed, gold
simply clears the version information in the symbol table, even
if the symbol could have been resolved by a needed library later
in the link order. This results in a loss of version information,
which can cause the program to bind to the wrong version at run
time.
This patch lets a dynamic definition override an earlier one if
the earlier one is from a not-needed library, so that we can
retain the version information from the binding to the needed
library. In order to do that, the tracking of needed/not-needed
had to be moved up to symbol resolution time, instead of during
Symbol_table::set_dynsym_indexes().
In cases where we still end up discarding version information,
I've added a warning.

In PR 16979, a reference to malloc is being resolved to an unversioned
reference in libmalloc.so. When linked with --as-needed, however, the
dynamic table does not list libmalloc.so as a DT_NEEDED library.
If we have a reference to an unversioned symbol in a shared object,
and we later see a versioned definition in another shared object, we
were overriding the first definition with the second in the process of
defining the default version. As a result, we no longer think that the
first shared object was actually needed to resolve any symbols, and we
don't list it as a DT_NEEDED library.
This patch fixes the problem by treating the two definitions as separate
symbols, so the second definition does not override the first.

The previous commit to fix PR gold/18886 converted STT_IFUNC
to STT_FUNC when resolving to a symbol defined in a shared library.
This leads to an internal error if the shared library symbol is
seen first, as we do not convert the symbol at all.

in override_base().

When a user object overrides a versioned definition in a shared object,
it's possible to trigger an internal error because the versioned
definition we saw didn't override the unversioned definition. This
was introduced by the fix for PR 18703. This patch fixes the problem
by reordering the tests so that we do not check ret->is_default()
until we're confident that the symbol is in fact versioned.
gold/
PR gold/18866
PR gold/18703
* symtab.cc (Symbol_table): Reorder conditions to avoid internal error.
If a symbol is defined with ".symver foo,foo@VER", the assembler
creates two symbols in the object: one unversioned, and one with
the (non-default) version "VER". If foo is listed in a version
script, gold would then make the first of those symbols the
default version, and would ignore the second symbol as a
duplicate, without making it a non-default version. While this is
arguably reasonable behavior, it doesn't match Gnu ld behavior,
so this patch fixes that by allowing the second definition to
override the first by resetting the "default version" indication.
Several test cases from the Gnu ld testsuite also exposed another
related problem, where a symbol defined with ".symver foo,foo@",
placed into a shared library, is not handled properly by gold.
This patch also fixes that case, binding the symbol to the base
version.

This patch adds option --weak-unresolved-symbols to treat unresolved symbols as

The plugin API doesn't provide a way for the claimed file handler to
identify a TLS symbol, so when adding a common TLS symbol, gold
mistakenly places the symbol in the non-TLS commons list, and does
not override it when we see the replacement symbol that is marked
as TLS. Consequently, we allocate the TLS common symbol as a regular
common, and, if it's the only TLS in the program, we'll give an
internal error because we haven't allocated a TLS segment.
This patch fixes the problem by removing an exclusion where common
symbols would not override the placeholder symbols, but checking to
see if the size needs adjusting (the original reason for the exclusion).
Furthermore, we need to avoid putting placeholder symbols in the common
list, and wait until we see a real common symbol with a type we can
trust.

PR gold/13577 complains that even though symbols listed in
the --dynamic-list script are exported, they are still bound symbolically
if -Bsymbolic is also used. There are two underlying problems here.
First, -Bsymbolic should be overridden by --dynamic-list, since the
dynamic list provides an explicit list of symbols that are not bound
within the library, and if we go ahead and set DT_SYMBOLIC, then the
dynamic loader will bind it within the library anyway. Second, gold
did not properly identify the symbols listed in the file as preemptible.
PR gold/16530 complains that symbols listed in the --dynamic-list script
can still be garbage collected. I've fixed this by checking the symbols
as they're added to the symbol table. (Unlike the --export-dynamic-symbol
option, we can't iterate over the list, because the --dynamic-list script
can have wildcards in it.)
