// Identical Code Folding Algorithm
// ----------------------------------
// Detecting identical functions is done here and the basic algorithm
// is as follows.  A checksum is computed on each foldable section using
// its contents and relocations.  If the symbol name corresponding to
// a relocation is known it is used to compute the checksum.  If the
// symbol name is not known the stringified name of the object and the
// section number pointed to by the relocation is used.  The checksums
// are stored as keys in a hash map and a section is identical to some
// other section if its checksum is already present in the hash map.
// Checksum collisions are handled by using a multimap and explicitly
// checking the contents when two sections have the same checksum.
//
// However, two functions A and B with identical text but with
// relocations pointing to different foldable sections can be identical if
// the corresponding foldable sections to which their relocations point to
// turn out to be identical.  Hence, this checksumming process must be
// done repeatedly until convergence is obtained.  Here is an example for
// the following case :
//
// int funcA ()               int funcB ()
// {                          {
//   return foo();              return goo();
// }                          }
//
// The functions funcA and funcB are identical if functions foo() and
// goo() are identical.
//
// Hence, as described above, we repeatedly do the checksumming,
// assigning identical functions to the same group, until convergence is
// obtained.  Now, we have two different ways to do this depending on how
// we initialize.
//
// Algorithm I :
// -----------
// We can start with marking all functions as different and repeatedly do
// the checksumming.  This has the advantage that we do not need to wait
// for convergence. We can stop at any point and correctness will be
// guaranteed although not all cases would have been found.  However, this
// has a problem that some cases can never be found even if it is run until
// convergence.  Here is an example with mutually recursive functions :
//
// int funcA (int a)            int funcB (int a)
// {                            {
//   if (a == 1)                  if (a == 1)
//     return 1;                    return 1;
//   return 1 + funcB(a - 1);     return 1 + funcA(a - 1);
// }                            }
//
// In this example funcA and funcB are identical and one of them could be
// folded into the other.  However, if we start with assuming that funcA
// and funcB are not identical, the algorithm, even after it is run to
// convergence, cannot detect that they are identical.  It should be noted
// that even if the functions were self-recursive, Algorithm I cannot catch
// that they are identical, at least as is.
//
// Algorithm II :
// ------------
// Here we start with marking all functions as identical and then repeat
// the checksumming until convergence.  This can detect the above case
// mentioned above.  It can detect all cases that Algorithm I can and more.
// However, the caveat is that it has to be run to convergence.  It cannot
// be stopped arbitrarily like Algorithm I as correctness cannot be
// guaranteed.  Algorithm II is not implemented.
//
// Algorithm I is used because experiments show that about three
// iterations are more than enough to achieve convergence. Algorithm I can
// handle recursive calls if it is changed to use a special common symbol
// for recursive relocs.  This seems to be the most common case that
// Algorithm I could not catch as is.  Mutually recursive calls are not
// frequent and Algorithm I wins because of its ability to be stopped
// arbitrarily.
//
// Caveat with using function pointers :
// ------------------------------------
//
// Programs using function pointer comparisons/checks should use function
// folding with caution as the result of such comparisons could be different
// when folding takes place.  This could lead to unexpected run-time
// behaviour.
//
// Safe Folding :
// ------------
//
// ICF in safe mode folds only ctors and dtors if their function pointers can
// never be taken.  Also, for X86-64, safe folding uses the relocation
// type to determine if a function's pointer is taken or not and only folds
// functions whose pointers are definitely not taken.
//
// Caveat with safe folding :
// ------------------------
//
// This applies only to x86_64.
//
// Position independent executables are created from PIC objects (compiled
// with -fPIC) and/or PIE objects (compiled with -fPIE).  For PIE objects, the
// relocation types for function pointer taken and a call are the same.
// Now, it is not always possible to tell if an object used in the link of
// a pie executable is a PIC object or a PIE object.  Hence, for pie
// executables, using relocation types to disambiguate function pointers is
// currently disabled.
//
// Further, it is not correct to use safe folding to build non-pie
// executables using PIC/PIE objects.  PIC/PIE objects have different
// relocation types for function pointers than non-PIC objects, and the
// current implementation of safe folding does not handle those relocation
// types.  Hence, if used, functions whose pointers are taken could still be
// folded causing unpredictable run-time behaviour if the pointers were used
// in comparisons.
//
// Notes regarding C++ exception handling :
// --------------------------------------
//
// It is possible for two sections to have identical text, identical
// relocations, but different exception handling metadata (unwind
// information in the .eh_frame section, and/or handler information in
// a .gcc_except_table section).  Thus, if a foldable section is
// referenced from a .eh_frame FDE, we must include in its checksum
// the contents of that FDE as well as of the CIE that the FDE refers
// to.  The CIE and FDE in turn probably contain relocations to the
// personality routine and LSDA, which are handled like any other
// relocation for ICF purposes.  This logic is helped by the fact that
// gcc with -ffunction-sections puts each function's LSDA in its own
// .gcc_except_table.<functionname> section.  Given sections for two
// functions with nontrivial exception handling logic, we will
// determine on the first iteration that their .gcc_except_table
// sections are identical and can be folded, and on the second
// iteration that their .text and .eh_frame contents (including the
// now-merged .gcc_except_table relocations for the LSDA) are
// identical and can be folded.
//
//
// How to run  : --icf=[safe|all|none]
// Optional parameters : --icf-iterations <num> --print-icf-sections
//
// Performance : Less than 20 % link-time overhead on industry strength
// applications.  Up to 6 %  text size reductions.
