This also turns off non-debug modes for the bss linker tests for
Wasm. This is done as it's not required to guarantee to zero out
the bss section for non-debug modes.
Move common tests by target file format (Wasm, MachO) into helper
functions in `link.zig`, and sort alphabetically within for easier
tracking versus file organization on disk.
* test/link: initial wasm support
This adds basic parsing and dumping of wasm section so they
can be tested using the new linker-test infrastructure.
* test/link: all wasm sections parsing and dumping
We now parse and dump all sections for the wasm binary format.
Currently, this only dumps the name of a custom section.
Later this should also dump symbol table, name, linking metadata and relocations.
All of those live within the custom sections.
* Add wasm linker test
This also fixes a parser mistake in reading the flags.
* test/link: implement linker tests wasm & fixes
Adds several test cases to test the wasm self-hosted linker.
This also introduces fixes that were caught during the implementation
of those tests.
* test-runner: obey omit_stage2 for standalone
When a standalone test requires stage2, but stage2 is omit
from the compiler, such test case will not be included as part
of the test suite that is being ran. This is to support CI's
where we omit stage2 to lower the memory usage.
Improve testing MachO binaries by verbose printing of the symtab
which includes segment,section names for defined symbols, and
import (dylib) name for imports.
MachO linker now handles `-needed-l<name>`, `-needed_library=<name>`
and `-needed_framework=<name>`. While on macOS `-l` is equivalent
to `-needed-l`, and `-framework` to `-needed_framework`, it can be
used to the same effect as on Linux if combined with `-dead_strip_dylibs`.
This commit also adds handling for `-needed_library` which is macOS
specific flag only (in addition to `-needed-l`).
Finally, in order to leverage new linker testing harness, this commit
added ability to specify lowering to those flags via `build.zig`:
`linkSystemLibraryNeeded` (and related), and `linkFrameworkNeeded`.
This approach is more inline with what LLVM/LLD does for testing
of their output, and seems to be more generic and easier to extend
than implementing a lot of repetitive and nontrivial comparison
logic when working directly on structures.
CheckMachOStep specialises CheckFileStep into directed (surgical)
MachO file fuzzy searches. This will be the building block for
comprehensive MachO linker tests.
