For a definition (of most linkage types), dso_local is set for ELF -fno-pic/-fpie
and COFF, but not for Mach-O. This nuance causes unneeded binary format differences.
This patch replaces (function) `define ` with `define{{.*}} `,
(variable/constant/alias) `= ` with `={{.*}} `, or inserts appropriate `{{.*}} `
if there is an explicit linkage.
* Clang will set dso_local for Mach-O, which is currently implied by TargetMachine.cpp. This will make COFF/Mach-O and executable ELF similar.
* Eventually I hope we can make dso_local the textual LLVM IR default (write explicit "dso_preemptable" when applicable) and -fpic ELF will be similar to everything else. This patch helps move toward that goal.
On some targets, passing zero to the clz() or ctz() builtins has undefined
behavior. I ran into this issue while debugging UB in __hash_table from libcxx:
the bug I was seeing manifested itself differently under -O0 vs -Os, due to a
UB call to clz() (see: libcxx/r304617).
This patch introduces a check which can detect UB calls to builtins.
