26/*
27 * === The EH frame format ===
28 *
29 * EH frames can either be Common Information Entries (CIEs) or Frame
30 * Description Entries (FDEs). CIEs contain information that is common amongst
31 * several FDEs. Each FDE contains a pointer to its CIE. Thus all the EH frame
32 * entries together form a forest of two-level trees, with CIEs as the roots
33 * and FDEs as the leaves. Note that a CIE must precede the FDEs which point
34 * to it.
35 *
36 * A CIE comprises the following fields in order:
37 * 1. Length of the entry (4 or 12 bytes)
38 * 2. CIE offset (4 bytes; always 0 for CIEs)
39 * 3. CIE version (byte)
40 * 4. Null-terminated augmentation string
41 * 5-8. LEB128 values that we don't care about
42 * 9. Augmentation data, to be interpreted using the aug string
43 * 10. DWARF instructions (ignored by LLD)
44 *
45 * An FDE comprises of the following:
46 * 1. Length of the entry (4 or 12 bytes)
47 * 2. CIE offset (4 bytes pcrel offset that points backwards to this FDE's CIE)
48 * 3. Function address (pointer-sized pcrel offset)
49 * 4. (std::optional) Augmentation data length
50 * 5. (std::optional) LSDA address (pointer-sized pcrel offset)
51 * 6. DWARF instructions (ignored by LLD)

79// The EH frame format, when emitted by llvm-mc, consists of a number of

82// symbols in the input object file. When we ingest these EH frames, we convert
83// these implicit relocations into explicit Relocs.
84//
85// These pcrel relocations are semantically similar to X86_64_RELOC_SIGNED_4.
86// However, we need this operation to be cross-platform, and ARM does not have a
87// similar relocation that is applicable. We therefore use the more verbose (but
88// more generic) subtractor relocation to encode these pcrel values. ld64
89// appears to do something similar -- its `-r` output contains these explicit
90// subtractor relocations.
