Another option might be to not bump "dot" for .tbss alignment in the
main section sizing loop, but that could leak some of the following

Replace the options --warn-orphan and --no-warn-orphan with a single
option --orphan-handling=MODE, where mode can be place, warn, error, and
discard.

Mode 'warn' is the same as '--warn-orphan'. The orphan is also placed
using the same algorithm as for 'place'.

Add a new command line option '--require-defined' to the linker. This
option operates identically to the '--undefined' option, except that if
the symbol is not defined in the final output file then the linker will
exit with an error.
When making use of --gc-section, or just when trying to pull in parts of
a library, it is not uncommon for a user to use the '--undefined'
command line option to specify a symbol that the user then expects to be
defined by one of the object files supplied to the link.
However, if for any reason the symbol is not satisfied by an object
provided to the link the user will be left with an undefined symbol in
the output file, instead of a defined symbol.
In some cases the above behaviour is what the user wants, in other cases
though we can do better. The '--require-defined' option tries to fill
this gap. The symbol passed to the '--require-defined' option is
treated exactly as if the symbol was passed to '--undefined', however,
before the linker exits a check is made that all symbols passed to
'--require-defined' are actually defined, if any are not then the link
will fail with an error.

The linker tries to put the end of the last section in the relro
segment exactly on a page boundary, because the relro segment itself
must end on a page boundary. If for any reason this can't be done,
padding is inserted. Since the end of the relro segment is typically
between .got and .got.plt, padding effectively increases the size of
the GOT. This isn't nice for targets and code models with limited GOT
addressing.
The problem with the current code is that it doesn't cope very well
with aligned sections in the relro segment. When making .got aligned
to a 256 byte boundary for PowerPC64, I found that often the initial
alignment attempt failed and the fallback attempt to be less than
adequate. This is a particular problem for PowerPC64 since the
distance between .got and .plt affects the size of plt call stubs,
leading to "stubs don't match calculated size" errors.
So this rewrite takes a direct approach to calculating a new relro
base. Starting from the last section in the segment, we calculate
where it must start to position its end on the boundary, or as near as
possible considering alignment requirements. The new start then
becomes the goal for the previous section to end, and so on for all
sections. This of course ignores the possibility that user scripts
will place . = ALIGN(xxx); in the relro segment, or provide section
address expressions. In those cases we might fail, but the old code
probably did too, and a fallback is provided.

* ldlang.c (lang_process): Add _init and _fini to gc_sym_list.
Adjusting the start of the relro segment in order to make it end
exactly on a page boundary runs into difficulties when sections in the
relro segment are aligned; Adjusting the start by (next_page - end)
sometimes results in more than that adjustment occurring at the end,
overrunning the page boundary. So when that occurs we try a new lower
start position by masking the adjusted start with the maximum section
alignment. However, we didn't consider that this masked start address
may in fact be before the initial relro base, which is silly since
that can only increase padding at the relro end.
I've also moved some calculations closer to where they are used, and
comments closer to the relevant statements.

LTO output objects have an STT_FILE symbol using the name of the file,
a temporary file. This results in executables that can't be exactly
reproduced, so the file name needs to be dropped. We don't want to
lose all file symbols when linking a mix of lto and non-lto objects as
a file symbol can be used to figure which source file generated a
given local symbol. So lto output objects need to be marked.
I chose to mark lto output objects with a new bfd flag. This flag is
also used to fix a bug in the link-once handling; An object being
loaded after "loading_lto_outputs" is set might be one extracted from
an archive to satisfy new references from lto objects, not an lto
object itself.
The new flag is copied from archive to elements, and the same done
for no_export. This fixes a bug in that --exclude-libs doesn't work
with thin archives. I'm not completely happy with this part of the
patch and may revist this to avoid the hack in

When creating a linker mapfile (using -Map=MAPFILE), we previously would
always try to evaluate the expression from a PROVIDE statement.
However, this is not always safe, consider:
PROVIDE (foo = 0x10);
PROVIDE (bar = foo);
In this example, if neither 'foo' or 'bar' is needed, then while
generating the linker mapfile evaluating the expression for 'foo' is
harmless (just the value 0x10). However, evaluating the expression for
'bar' requires the symbol 'foo', which is undefined. This used to cause
a fatal error.
This patch changes the behaviour, so that when the destination of the
PROVIDE is not defined (that is the PROVIDE is not going to provide
anything) the expression is not evaluated, and instead a special string
is displayed to indicate that the linker is discarding the PROVIDE
statement.
This change not only fixes the spurious undefined symbol error, but also
means that a user can now tell if a PROVIDE statement has provided
anything by inspecting the linker mapfile, something that could not be
done before.

Running lang_common before garbage collection means slightly less work

necessary to delay creating the sections.

A long time ago ld made use of userdata to tie an output section to
its lang_input_statement_struct object file. Some time later Joern
made map file printing of symbols at lot faster, using userdata on
input sections. That complicated allocation of userdata, and when the
output section use disappeared a year later, the code wasn't properly
cleaned up. This patch does that cleanup, and also tidies the symbol
printing code to not allocate userdata where it won't be needed. We
don't print symbols defined in the absolute section or in output
sections.

This patch fixes 2 GNU_RELRO segment bugs:
1. lang_size_sections didn't properly align base to the maximum
alignment power of sections between DATA_SEGMENT_ALIGN and
DATA_SEGMENT_RELRO_END.
2. ld failed to adjust LOAD segment to generate GNU_RELRO segment
when LOAD segment doesn't fit GNU_RELRO segment. This is
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14207
We "fixed" ld by not generating GNU_RELRO segment. This patch
adjusts LOAD segment to generate GNU_RELRO segment. It fixes
PR ld/16322 and at the same time it also fixes PR binutils/16323
since now we can adjust LOAD segment if it is too small.
