// For rlibs we "pack" rustc metadata into a dummy object file. When rustc
// creates a dylib crate type it will pass `--whole-archive` (or the
// platform equivalent) to include all object files from an rlib into the
// final dylib itself. This causes linkers to iterate and try to include all
// files located in an archive, so if metadata is stored in an archive then
// it needs to be of a form that the linker will be able to process.
//
// Note, though, that we don't actually want this metadata to show up in any
// final output of the compiler. Instead this is purely for rustc's own
// metadata tracking purposes.
//
// With the above in mind, each "flavor" of object format gets special
// handling here depending on the target:
//
// * MachO - macos-like targets will insert the metadata into a section that
// is sort of fake dwarf debug info. Inspecting the source of the macos
// linker this causes these sections to be skipped automatically because
// it's not in an allowlist of otherwise well known dwarf section names to
// go into the final artifact.
//
// * WebAssembly - we actually don't have any container format for this
// target. WebAssembly doesn't support the `dylib` crate type anyway so
// there's no need for us to support this at this time. Consequently the
// metadata bytes are simply stored as-is into an rlib.
//
// * COFF - Windows-like targets create an object with a section that has
// the `IMAGE_SCN_LNK_REMOVE` flag set which ensures that if the linker
// ever sees the section it doesn't process it and it's removed.
//
// * ELF - All other targets are similar to Windows in that there's a
// `SHF_EXCLUDE` flag we can set on sections in an object file to get
// automatically removed from the final output.

//
// * Some targets don't have support in the `object` crate just yet
// to write an object file. These targets are likely to get filled
// out over time.
//
// * Targets like WebAssembly don't support dylibs, so the purpose
// of putting metadata in object files, to support linking rlibs
// into dylibs, is moot.
//
// In both of these cases it means that linking into dylibs will
// not be supported by rustc. This doesn't matter for targets like
// WebAssembly and for targets not supported by the `object` crate
// yet it means that work will need to be done in the `object` crate
// to add a case above.
