/section command line option is to set/reset attributes of the Characteristics
field in the section header. You can set non-default values with this option.
You can make .data section executable with this, for example.

This patch implements the parser of the command line option. The code to use
the parsed values will be committed in a separate patch.

I'm not sure if it is really an alias for /nodefaultlib, but I can say that
they are at least similar. Making it an alias would be better than ignoring it.

msvcrt.lib contains "/disallowlib" command line option in its .drectve section.
I couldn't spot any documentation for the option. Ignore it for now so that we
can link the library without error.

/merge:<from>=<to> option makes the linker to combine "from" section to "to"
section. This patch is to parse the option. The actual feature will be
implemented in a subsequent patch.

/manifestfile:<path> specifies an alternative manifest file output path.
Default is "<output-path>.manifest" where <output-path> is the executable's
path.

llvm-svn: 193195

The manifest file is an XML file that conveys some information to the loader,
such as whether the executable needs to run as Administrator or not. This patch
is to parse command line option for manifest file.

Actual XML file generation will be done in a separate patch.

/PDBALTPATH:<path> is an option to embed a different path for the PDB file to
the binary than the actual PDB file location. Because we don't support PDB
file, we'll just ignore the option for now.

We used to support both Windows and Unix style command line options. In Windows
style, an option and its value are separated by ":" (colon). In Unix, separator
is a space. Accepting both styles were convenient, but we can no longer allow
Unix style because I found that can be ambiguous.

For example, /nodefaultlib option takes an optional argument. In Windows style
it's going to be something like "/nodefaultlib:foo". There's no ambiguity what
"foo" means. However, if the option is "/nodefaultlib foo", "foo" can be
interpreted either an optional argument for "/nodefaultlib" or an input file
"foo.obj". We should just stop accepting the non-standard command line style.

These options are to enable DLL delay loading. If enabled, DLL is loaded
at run time by a helper routine when a function in the DLL is actually called
for the first time, instead of making the Windows loader to load all DLLs at
startup time. This should shorten startup delay if an executable have many
imported symbols.

The linker needs to create a "delayed import table" and link delayimp.lib in
which helper functions are defined to support the feature.

For now, we just ignore the options, so that the linker does not complain when
it sees these options. We want to support them in the future.

/incremental is an option to enable incremental linking. We will eventually
want to implement the feature for better performance, but in the meantime,
we want to just ignore the option so that the linker does not output unknown
option error when it sees /incremental option.

/errorReport is a command line option to let the linker to report internal
linker error information to Microsoft. For LLD that option doesn't make any
sense, so it just ignores the option.

The compiler is allowed to add a linker option starting with -?<name> to
.drectve section. If the linker can interpret -<name>, it's processed as if
there's no question mark there. If not, such option is silently ignored.

This is a COFF's feature to allow the compiler to emit new linker options
while keeping compatibility with older linkers.

in order to match link.exe's behaviour.

Patch by Ron Ofir.

llvm-svn: 189159

This used to be handled automagically by the option parsing library,
but after LLVM r188314, we should handle it ourselves.

No functionality change, but adds a test.

This patch does not change the behavior of LLD, but changes the output of the
help text. We want to show the help text with Windows style indicator rather
than Unix style indicator.

It's still not as simple as it should be because of the many duplicated
lines, but it's at least better than before.

llvm-svn: 187091

The /include command line option is equivalent to Unix --undefined
option, which forces the linker to resolve the given symbol name
as if it's an unresolved symbol in one of its input files. This feature
is used to link an additional object file or a shared library that no
input files refer to.
