c34fb3cfc6 cmd/link: always resolve functions locally when linking dynamically
When dynamically linking, we want references to functions defined
in this module to always be to the function object, not to the
PLT. We force this by writing an additional local symbol for
every global function symbol and making all relocations against
the global symbol refer to this local symbol instead. This is
approximately equivalent to the ELF linker -Bsymbolic-functions
option, but that is buggy on several platforms.

runtime/msan package, and support for -msan in the go tool and the
compiler, and tests, are in separate CLs.

d66f6c2c86 cmd/link: centralize knowledge of size of fixed part of stack
Shared libraries on ppc64le will require a larger minimum stack frame (because
the ABI mandates that the TOC pointer is available at 24(R1)). Part 2b of
preparing for that is to have all the code in the linker that needs to know
this size of this call a function to find out.

69a99ccc62 cmd/link: always disable lazy PLT resolution when dynamically linking Go
Go cannot allow lazy PLT resolution when calling between Go functions because
the lazy resolution can use more stack than is available. Lazy resolution is
disabled by passing -z now to the system linker, but unfortunately was only
passed when linking to a Go shared library. That sounds fine, but the shared
library containing the runtime is not linked to any other Go shared library but
calls main.init and main.main via a PLT, and before this fix this did use lazy
resolution. (For some reason this never caused a problem on intel, but it
breaks on ppc64le). Fortunately the fix is very simple: always pass -z now to
the system linker when dynamically linking Go.

Go shared libraries do not support dlclose, and there is no likelihood
that they will suppose dlclose in the future.  Set the DF_1_NODELETE
flag to tell the dynamic linker to not attempt to remove them from

dlopen passed the RTLD_NODELETE flag.

5cbca8d84b cmd/internal/ld: put read-only relocated data into .data.rel.ro when making a shared object
Currently Go produces shared libraries that cannot be shared between processes
because they have relocations against the text segment (not text section). This

static linker.

The comment about not having correct SP information at the call
to morestack was true, but that was a real bug, not something to

no need to special-case morestack in the way done here.

This cleanup and simplification of the code was the first step
to fixing a bug that happened when I started working on the
arm64 frame size adjustments, but the cleanup was sufficient
to make the bug go away.

ca19e55f9a cmd/link: make stkcheck more flexible
stkcheck is flow-insensitive: It processes calls in PC order.
Since morestack was always the first call in a function,
it was a safe, conservative approximation to simply adjust stack
space as we went, recognizing morestack when it showed up.

Subsequent CLS will rearrange the function prologue;
morestack may no longer be the first call in a function.

Introducing flow-sensitivity to stkcheck would allow this,
and possibly allow a smaller stackguard.
It is also a high risk change and possibly expensive.

Instead, assume that all calls to morestack occur as
part of the function prologue, no matter where they
are located in the program text.

c949cff6a7 cmd/internal/ld: do not depend on local symbols to read a type's gcdata
We already read the address of a gcmask/gcprog out of the type data, but I
didn't know how many bytes to read. But it turns out that it's easy to
calculate, so change to do that. This means that we no longer depend on the
local symbols being present, allowing me to strip the shared libraries for
distribution and make them a lot smaller.

As a bonus, this makes LSym another 24 bytes smaller, down to 296 bytes now.

bcc1870fcf cmd/internal/ld: store the libraries a shared library was linked against in a note
The motivation for this is the innocuous looking test case that is added. This
creates a stack exe -> libdep2.so -> libdep.so -> libruntime.so. The problem
comes from the fact that a function from libdep.so gets inlined all the way
into exe. This (unsurprisingly) means that the object file for exe references
symbols from libdep.so, which means that -ldep needs to be passed when linking
exe and it isn't. The fix is simply to pass it -- there is no harm in passing
it when it's not needed.

The thing is, it's not clear at all in the current code to see how the linker
can know that libdep2 is linked against libdep. It could look through the
DT_NEEDED entries in libdep2 and try to guess which are Go libraries, but it
feels better to be explicit. So this adds another SHT_NOTE section that lists
the shared libraries a shared library was linked against, and makes sure the
complete set of depended upon shared libraries is passed to the external
linker.

65518032b9 cmd/link/internal/ld: put abi hash into a note
This makes for a more stable API for tools (including cmd/link itself) to
extract the abi hash from a shared library and makes it possible at all for a
library that has had the local symbol table removed.

The existing note-writing code only supports writing notes into the very start
of the object file so they are easy to find in core dumps. This doesn't apply
to the "go" notes and means that all notes have to fit into a fixed size
budget. That's annoying now we have more notes (and the next CL will add
another one) so this does a little bit of work to make adding notes that do not
have to go at the start of the file easier and moves the writing of the package
list note over to that mechanism, which lets me revert a hack that increased
the size budget mentioned above for -buildmode=shared builds.

cf2736c4c5 cmd/link: replace interface{} fields with concrete types
The LSym.Section and Section.Elfsect fields were defined as interface{} but
always had the same concrete type (*Section and *ElfShdr respectively) so just
define them with that type. Reduces size of LSym from 328 to 320 bytes and
reduces best-of-10 maxresident size from 246028k to 238036k when linking
libstd.so.

714291f2d8 cmd/link/internal/ld: if -v, display external linker output
It can be useful when debugging to be able to see what the external
linker is doing even when it succeeds.  In particular this permits
passing -v to the external linker to see precisely what it is doing.

cf932cd897 all: retire architecture letter in file names, public API
This CL removes the remaining visible uses of the "architecture letter" concept.
(They are no longer in tool names nor in source directory names.)

Because the architecture letter concept is now gone, delete GOCHAR
from "go env" output, and change go/build.ArchChar to return an
error always.

The architecture letter is still used in the compiler and linker sources
as a clumsy architecture enumeration, but that use is not visible to
Go users and can be cleaned up separately.

17eba6e6b7 cmd/compile, cmd/link: create from 5g, 5l, etc
Trivial merging of 5g, 6g, ... into go tool compile,
and similarlly 5l, 6l, ... into go tool link.
The files compile/main.go and link/main.go are new.
Everything else in those directories is a move followed by
change of imports and package name.

This CL breaks the build. Manual fixups are in the next CL.

See golang-dev thread titled "go tool compile, etc" for background.
