Text section prefix is created in CodeGenPrepare, it's file format independent implementation, text section name is written into object file in TargetLoweringObjectFile, it's file format dependent implementation, port code of adding text section prefix to text section name from ELF to COFF.
Different with ELF that use '.' as concatenation character, COFF use '$' as concatenation character. That is, concatenation character is variable, so split concatenation character from text section prefix.
Text section prefix is existing feature of ELF, it can help to reduce icache and itlb misses, it's also make possible aggregate other compilers e.g. v8 created same prefix sections. Furthermore, the recent feature Machine Function Splitter (basic block level text prefix section) is based on text section prefix.

This broke Chromium's PGO build, it seems because hot-cold-splitting got turned
on unintentionally. See comment on the code review for repro etc.

This reverts commit 273c299d5d.
This patch adds -f[no-]split-cold-code CC1 options to clang. This allows
the splitting pass to be toggled on/off. The current method of passing
`-mllvm -hot-cold-split=true` to clang isn't ideal as it may not compose
correctly (say, with `-O0` or `-Oz`).
To implement the -fsplit-cold-code option, an attribute is applied to
functions to indicate that they may be considered for splitting. This
removes some complexity from the old/new PM pipeline builders, and
behaves as expected when LTO is enabled.

As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.
llvm-svn: 358546
Summary:
When compiling with profile data, ensure the split cold function gets
cold function_entry_count metadata (just use 0 since it should be cold).
Otherwise with function sections it will not be placed in the unlikely
text section with other cold code.
