For a default visibility external linkage definition, dso_local is set for ELF
-fno-pic/-fpie and COFF and Mach-O. Since default clang -cc1 for ELF is similar
to -fpic ("PIC Level" is not set), this nuance causes unneeded binary format differences.
To make emitted IR similar, ELF -cc1 -fpic will default to -fno-semantic-interposition,
which sets dso_local for default visibility external linkage definitions.
To make this flip smooth and enable future (dso_local as definition default),
this patch replaces (function) `define ` with `define{{.*}} `,
(variable/constant/alias) `= ` with `={{.*}} `, or inserts appropriate `{{.*}} `.
The test was fixed after a discussion with the revision author: the check
pattern was made more flexible as the "%call" part is not what we actually want
to check strictly there.
The original patch description:
===
Introduce SPIR calling conventions.
This implements Section 3.7 from the SPIR 1.2 spec:
SPIR kernels should use "spir_kernel" calling convention.
Non-kernel functions use "spir_func" calling convention. All
other calling conventions are disallowed.
The patch works only for OpenCL source. Any other uses will need
to ensure that kernels are assigned the spir_kernel calling
convention correctly.
