/// only participate in linking if they can satisfy at least one undefined reference (version
/// scripts doesn't count). This causes `#[no_mangle]` or `#[used]` items to be ignored by the
/// linker, and since they never participate in the linking, using `KEEP` in the linker scripts
/// can't keep them either. This causes #47384.
///
/// To keep them around, we could use `--whole-archive` and equivalents to force rlib to
/// participate in linking like object files, but this proves to be expensive (#93791). Therefore
/// we instead just introduce an undefined reference to them. This could be done by `-u` command
/// line option to the linker or `EXTERN(...)` in linker scripts, however they does not only
/// introduce an undefined reference, but also make them the GC roots, preventing `--gc-sections`
/// from removing them, and this is especially problematic for embedded programming where every
/// byte counts.
///
/// This method creates a synthetic object file, which contains undefined references to all symbols
/// that are necessary for the linking. They are only present in symbol table but not actually
/// used in any sections, so the linker will therefore pick relevant rlibs for linking, but
/// unused `#[no_mangle]` or `#[used]` can still be discard by GC sections.

/// libstd) which actually have a circular dependence upon one another. This

//
// When performing LTO, almost(*) all of the bytecode from the upstream
// libraries has already been included in our object file output. As a
// result we need to remove the object files in the upstream libraries so
// the linker doesn't try to include them twice (or whine about duplicate
// symbols). We must continue to include the rest of the rlib, however, as
// it may contain static native libraries which must be linked in.
//
// (*) Crates marked with `#![no_builtins]` don't participate in LTO and
// their bytecode wasn't included. The object files in those libraries must
// still be passed to the linker.
//
// Note, however, that if we're not doing LTO we can just pass the rlib
// blindly to the linker (fast) because it's fine if it's not actually
// included as we're at the end of the dependency chain.
