According to the ABI for the Arm Architecture, the value for the
Tag_also_compatible_with eabi attribute is represented by an NTBS entry.
This string value, in turn, is composed of a pair of tag+value encoded
in one of two formats:
- ULEB128: tag, ULEB128: value, 0.
- ULEB128: tag, NBTS: data.
(See [[ 60a8eb8c55/addenda32/addenda32.rst (3373secondary-compatibility-tag) | section 3.3.7.3 on the Addenda to, and Errata in, the ABI for the Arm Architecture ]].)
Currently the Arm assembly parser and streamer ignore the encoding of
the attribute's NTBS value, which can result in incorrect attributes
being emitted in both assembly and object file outputs.
This patch fixes these issues by properly handing the value's encoding.
An update to llvm-readobj to properly handle the attribute's value will be
covered by a separate patch.

Running iwyu-diff on LLVM codebase since fb67d683db detected a few
regressions, fixing them.
The impact on preprocessed output is negligible: -4k lines.
It's a fairly common issue that the generating code incorrectly marks
instructions as narrow or wide; check that the instruction lengths
add up to the expected value, and error out if it doesn't. This allows
catching code generation bugs.
Also check that prologs and epilogs are properly terminated, to

This includes .seh_* directives for generating it from assembly.
It is designed fairly similarly to the ARM64 handling.
For .seh_handler directives, such as
".seh_handler __C_specific_handler, @except" (which is supported
on x86_64 and aarch64 so far), the "@except" bit doesn't work in
ARM assembly, as '@' is used as a comment character (on all current
platforms).
Allow using '%' instead of '@' for this purpose. This convention
is used by GAS in similar contexts already,
e.g. [1]:
Note on targets where the @ character is the start of a comment
(eg ARM) then another character is used instead. For example the
ARM port uses the % character.
In practice, this unfortunately means that all such .seh_handler
directives will need ifdefs for ARM.
Contrary to ARM64, on ARM, it's quite common that we can't evaluate
e.g. the function length at this point, due to instructions whose
length is finalized later. (Also, inline jump tables end with
a ".p2align 1".)
If unable to to evaluate the function length immediately, emit
it as an MCExpr instead. If we'd implement splitting the unwind
info for a function (which isn't implemented for ARM64 yet either),
we wouldn't know whether we need to split it though.
Avoid calling getFrameIndexOffset() on an unset
FuncInfo.UnwindHelpFrameIdx, to avoid triggering asserts in the
preexisting testcase CodeGen/ARM/Windows/wineh-basic.ll. (Once
MSVC exception handling is fully implemented, those changes
can be reverted.)

AArch32/Armv8A introduced the performance deprecation of certain patterns
of IT instructions. After some debate internal to ARM, this is now being
reverted; i.e. no IT instruction patterns are performance deprecated
anymore, as the perfomance degredation is not significant enough.
This reverts the following:
"ARMv8-A deprecates some uses of the T32 IT instruction. All uses of
IT that apply to instructions other than a single subsequent 16-bit
instruction from a restricted set are deprecated, as are explicit
references to the PC within that single 16-bit instruction. This permits
the non-deprecated forms of IT and subsequent instructions to be treated
as a single 32-bit conditional instruction."
The deprecation no longer applies, but the behaviour may be controlled
by the -arm-restrict-it and -arm-no-restrict-it command-line options,
with the latter being the default. No warnings about complex IT blocks
will be generated.

This patch implements PAC return address signing for armv8-m. This patch roughly
accomplishes the following things:
- PAC and AUT instructions are generated.
- They're part of the stack frame setup, so that shrink-wrapping can move them
inwards to cover only part of a function
- The auth code generated by PAC is saved across subroutine calls so that AUT
can find it again to check
- PAC is emitted before stacking registers (so that the SP it signs is the one
on function entry).
- The new pseudo-register ra_auth_code is mentioned in the DWARF frame data
- With CMSE also in use: PAC is emitted before stacking FPCXTNS, and AUT
validates the corresponding value of SP
- Emit correct unwind information when PAC is replaced by PACBTI
- Handle tail calls correctly
Some notes:
We make the assembler accept the `.save {ra_auth_code}` directive that is
emitted by the compiler when it saves a register that contains a
return address authentication code.
For EHABI we need to have the `FrameSetup` flag on the instruction and
handle the `t2PACBTI` opcode (identically to `t2PAC`), so we can emit
`.save {ra_auth_code}`, instead of `.save {r12}`.
For PACBTI-M, the instruction which computes return address PAC should use SP
value before adjustment for the argument registers save are (used for variadic
functions and when a parameter is is split between stack and register), but at
the same it should be after the instruction that saves FPCXT when compiling a
CMSE entry function.
This patch moves the varargs SP adjustment after the FPCXT save (they are never
enabled at the same time), so in a following patch handling of the `PAC`
instruction can be placed between them.
Epilogue emission code adjusted in a similar manner.
PACBTI-M code generation should not emit any instructions for architectures
v6-m, v8-m.base, and for A- and R-class cores. Diagnostic message for such cases
is handled separately by a future ticket.
note on tail calls:
If the called function has four arguments that occupy registers `r0`-`r3`, the
only option for holding the function pointer itself is `r12`, but this register
is used to keep the PAC during function/prologue epilogue and clobbers the
function pointer.
When we do the tail call we need the five registers (`r0`-`r3` and `r12`) to
keep six values - the four function arguments, the function pointer and the PAC,
which is obviously impossible.
One option would be to authenticate the return address before all callee-saved
registers are restored, so we have a scratch register to temporarily keep the
value of `r12`. The issue with this approach is that it violates a fundamental
invariant that PAC is computed using CFA as a modifier. It would also mean using
separate instructions to pop `lr` and the rest of the callee-saved registers,
which would offset the advantages of doing a tail call.
Instead, this patch disables indirect tail calls when the called function take
four or more arguments and the return address sign and authentication is enabled
for the caller function, conservatively assuming the caller function would spill
LR.
This patch is part of a series that adds support for the PACBTI-M extension of
the Armv8.1-M architecture, as detailed here:

Some instructions with i8 immediate ranges can only hold negative values

AddrModeT2_i8pos and AddrModeT2_i8neg to make this clear.
This allows us to get the offset ranges of t2LDRHi8 correct in the

This allows VMOVL in tail predicated loops so long as the the vector
size the VMOVL is extending into is less than or equal to the size of
the VCTP in the tail predicated loop. These cases represent a
sign-extend-inreg (or zero-extend-inreg), which needn't block tail
predication as in https://godbolt.org/z/hdTsEbx8Y.
For this a vecsize has been added to the TSFlag bits of MVE
instructions, which stores the size of the elements that the MVE
instruction operates on. In the case of multiple size (such as a
MVE_VMOVLs8bh that extends from i8 to i16, the largest size was be
chosen). The sizes are encoded as 00 = i8, 01 = i16, 10 = i32 and 11 =
i64, which often (but not always) comes from the instruction encoding
directly. A unit test was added, and although only a subset of the
vecsizes are currently used, the rest should be useful for other cases.

On some architectures such as Arm and X86 the encoding for a nop may
change depending on the subtarget in operation at the time of
encoding. This change replaces the per module MCSubtargetInfo retained
by the targets AsmBackend in favour of passing through the local
MCSubtargetInfo in operation at the time.
On Arm using the architectural NOP instruction can have a performance
benefit on some implementations.
For Arm I've deleted the copy of the AsmBackend's MCSubtargetInfo to
limit the chances of this causing problems in the future. I've not
done this for other targets such as X86 as there is more frequent use
of the MCSubtargetInfo and it looks to be for stable properties that
we would not expect to vary per function.
This change required threading STI through MCNopsFragment and
MCBoundaryAlignFragment.
I've attempted to take into account the in tree experimental backends.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D45962
In preparation for passing the MCSubtargetInfo (STI) through to writeNops
so that it can use the STI in operation at the time, we need to record the
STI in operation when a MCAlignFragment may write nops as padding. The
STI is currently unused, a further patch will pass it through to
writeNops.
There are many places that can create an MCAlignFragment, in most cases
we can find out the STI in operation at the time. In a few places this
isn't possible as we are in initialisation or finalisation, or are
emitting constant pools. When possible I've tried to find the most
appropriate existing fragment to obtain the STI from, when none is
available use the per module STI.
For constant pools we don't actually need to use EmitCodeAlign as the
constant pools are data anyway so falling through into it via an
executable NOP is no better than falling through into data padding.
This is a prerequisite for D45962 which uses the STI to emit the
appropriate NOP for the STI. Which can differ per fragment.
Note that involves an interface change to InitSections. It is now
called initSections and requires a SubtargetInfo as a parameter.
