Only pass --[no-]gc-sections if linker is GNU ld.
Fixes a regression from #84468 where linking now fails with solaris linkers. LinkerFlavor::Gcc does not always mean GNU ld specifically. And in the case of at least the solaris ld in illumos, that flag is unrecognized and will cause the linking step to fail.
Even though removing the `is_like_solaris` branch from `gc_sections` in #84468 made sense as `-z ignore/record` are more analogous to the `--[no-]-as-needed` flags, it inadvertently caused solaris linkers to be passed the `--gc-sections` flag. So let's just change it to be more explicit about when we pass those flags.
Remove CrateNum parameter for queries that only work on local crate
The pervasive `CrateNum` parameter is a remnant of the multi-crate rustc idea.
Using `()` as query key in those cases avoids having to worry about the validity of the query key.
Use the object crate for metadata reading
This allows sharing the metadata reader between cg_llvm, cg_clif and other codegen backends.
This is not currently useful for rlib reading with cg_spirv ([rust-gpu](https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/rust-gpu/)) as it uses tar rather than ar as .rlib format, but it is useful for dylib reading required for loading proc macros. (cc `@eddyb)`
The object crate is already trusted as dependency of libstd through backtrace. As far as I know it supports reading all object file formats used by targets for which we support rust dylibs with crate metadata, but I am not certain. If this happens to not be the case, I could keep using LLVM for reading dylib metadata.
Marked as WIP for a perf run and as it is based on #83637.
LinkerFlavor::Gcc does not always mean GNU ld specifically. And in the
case of at least the solaris ld in illumos, that flag is unrecognized
and will cause the linking step to fail.
Under some conditions, the toolchain will produce a sequence of linker
arguments that result in a NEEDED list that puts libc before libgcc_s;
e.g.,
[0] NEEDED 0x2046ba libc.so.1
[1] NEEDED 0x204723 libm.so.2
[2] NEEDED 0x204736 libsocket.so.1
[3] NEEDED 0x20478b libumem.so.1
[4] NEEDED 0x204763 libgcc_s.so.1
Both libc and libgcc_s provide an unwinder implementation, but libgcc_s
provides some extra symbols upon which Rust directly depends. If libc
is first in the NEEDED list we will find some of those symbols in libc
but others in libgcc_s, resulting in undefined behaviour as the two
implementations do not use compatible interior data structures.
This solution is not perfect, but is the simplest way to produce correct
binaries on illumos for now.
Fix#84467 linker_args with --target=sparcv9-sun-solaris
Trying to cross-compile for sparcv9-sun-solaris
getting a error message for -zignore
Introduced when -z -ignore was seperated here

This commit implements both the native linking modifiers infrastructure
as well as an initial attempt at the individual modifiers from the RFC.
It also introduces a feature flag for the general syntax along with
individual feature flags for each modifier.

Use FromStr trait for number option parsing
Replace `parse_uint` with generic `parse_number` based on `FromStr`.
Use it for parsing inlining threshold to avoid casting later.
Add an Mmap wrapper to rustc_data_structures
This wrapper implements StableAddress and falls back to directly reading the file on wasm32.
Taken from #83640, which I will close due to the perf regression.
