IR symbol table does not parse inline asm. A symbol only referenced by inline
asm is not in the IR symbol table, so LTO does not know that the definition (in
another translation unit) is referenced and may internalize it, even if that
definition has `__attribute__((used))` (which lowers to `llvm.compiler.used` on
ELF targets since D97446).
```
// cabac.c
__attribute__((used)) const uint8_t ff_h264_cabac_tables[...] = {...};
// h264_cabac.c
asm("lea ff_h264_cabac_tables(%rip), %0" : ...);
```
`__attribute__((used))` is the recommended way to tell the compiler there may
be inline asm references, so the usage is perfectly fine. This patch
conservatively sets the `FB_used` bit on `llvm.compiler.used` symbols to work
around the IR symbol table limitation. Note: before D97446, Clang never emitted
symbols in the `llvm.compiler.used` list, so this change does not punish any
Clang emitted global object.
Without the patch, `ff_h264_cabac_tables` may be assigned to a non-external
partition and get internalized. Then we will get a linker error because the
`cabac.c` definition is not exposed.

lld already marks shared library defs as ExportDynamic, which prevents
potentially unsafe devirtualization of symbols defined in shared
libraries. Match that behavior in the gold plugin, and add the same

Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D96722
The new tests added by 1487747e99 for lld
and gold plugin were largely equivalent, but the gold one was missing
one of the cases added to lld. Add that test to the gold plugin version.
The gold LTO plugin uses a set of hooks to implements emit-llvm and capture intermediate file generated during LTO. The hooks are called by each lto backend thread with a taskID as argument to differentiate between threads and tasks. Currently, all threads are overwriting the same file which results into only the intermediate output of the last backend thread to be preserved. This diff encodes the taskID into the filename.

Part of the gold test added in 1487747e99
relies on more recent fixes to gold that fix the plugin behavior with
--export-dynamic-symbol and --dynamic-list. Extract those parts of the
new test into a v1.16 test.
Identify dynamically exported symbols (--export-dynamic[-symbol=],
--dynamic-list=, or definitions needed to preempt shared objects) and
prevent their LTO visibility from being upgraded.
This helps avoid use of whole program devirtualization when there may
be overrides in dynamic libraries.

Imported functions and variable get the visibility from the module supplying the
definition. However, non-imported definitions do not get the visibility from
(ELF) the most constraining visibility among all modules (Mach-O) the visibility
of the prevailing definition.
This patch
* adds visibility bits to GlobalValueSummary::GVFlags
* computes the result visibility and propagates it to all definitions
Protected/hidden can imply dso_local which can enable some optimizations (this
is stronger than GVFlags::DSOLocal because the implied dso_local can be
leveraged for ELF -shared while default visibility dso_local has to be cleared
for ELF -shared).
Note: we don't have summaries for declarations, so for ELF if a declaration has
the most constraining visibility, the result visibility may not be that one.

TargetMachine::shouldAssumeDSOLocal currently implies dso_local for
Static. Split some tests so that these `external dso_local global`

They are currently implicit because TargetMachine::shouldAssumeDSOLocal implies
dso_local.
For external data, clang -fno-pic emits the dso_local specifier for ELF and
non-MinGW COFF. Adding explicit dso_local makes these tests in align with the
clang behavior and helps implementing an option to use GOT indirection for
external data access in -fno-pic mode (to avoid copy relocations).

"[llvm-dev] Multiple documents in one test file" for some discussions.
This patch has explored several alternatives. The current semantics are similar to
what @dblaikie proposed.
`split-file filename output` splits the input file into multiple parts separated by
regex `^(.|//)--- filename` and write each part to the file `output/filename`
(`filename` can include path separators).
Use case A (organizing input of different formats (e.g. linker
script+assembly) in one file).
```
# RUN: split-file %s %t
# RUN: llvm-mc %t/asm -o %t.o
# RUN: ld.lld -T %t/lds %t.o -o %t
This is sometimes better than the %S/Inputs/ approach because the user
can see the auxiliary files immediately and don't have to open another file.
# asm
...
# lds
...
```
Use case B (for utilities which don't have built-in input splitting
feature):
```
// RUN: split-file %s %t
// RUN: llc < %t/1.ll | FileCheck %s --check-prefix=CASE1
// RUN: llc < %t/2.ll | FileCheck %s --check-prefix=CASE2
Combing tests prudently can improve readability.
For example, when testing parsing errors if the recovery mechanism isn't possible,
grouping the tests in one file can more readily see test coverage/strategy.
//--- 1.ll
...
//--- 2.ll
...
```
Since this is a new utility, there is no git history concerns for
UpperCase variable names. I use lowerCase variable names like mlir/lld.

Summary:
Third part in series to support Safe Whole Program Devirtualization
Enablement, see RFC here:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2019-December/137543.html
This patch adds type test metadata under -fwhole-program-vtables,
even for classes without hidden visibility. It then changes WPD to skip
devirtualization for a virtual function call when any of the compatible
vtables has public vcall visibility.
Additionally, internal LLVM options as well as lld and gold-plugin
options are added which enable upgrading all public vcall visibility
to linkage unit (hidden) visibility during LTO. This enables the more
aggressive WPD to kick in based on LTO time knowledge of the visibility
guarantees.
Support was added to all flavors of LTO WPD (regular, hybrid and
index-only), and to both the new and old LTO APIs.
Unfortunately it was not simple to split the first and second parts of
this part of the change (the unconditional emission of type tests and
the upgrading of the vcall visiblity) as I needed a way to upgrade the
public visibility on legacy WPD llvm assembly tests that don't include
linkage unit vcall visibility specifiers, to avoid a lot of test churn.
I also added a mechanism to LowerTypeTests that allows dropping type
test assume sequences we now aggressively insert when we invoke
distributed ThinLTO backends with null indexes, which is used in testing
mode, and which doesn't invoke the normal ThinLTO backend pipeline.
Depends on D71907 and D71911.

Summary:
We hit undefined references building with ThinLTO when one source file
contained explicit instantiations of a template method (weak_odr) but
there were also implicit instantiations in another file (linkonce_odr),
and the latter was the prevailing copy. In this case the symbol was
marked hidden when the prevailing linkonce_odr copy was promoted to
weak_odr. It led to unsats when the resulting shared library was linked
with other code that contained a reference (expecting to be resolved due
to the explicit instantiation).
Add a CanAutoHide flag to the GV summary to allow the thin link to
identify when all copies are eligible for auto-hiding (because they were
all originally linkonce_odr global unnamed addr), and only do the
auto-hide in that case.
Most of the changes here are due to plumbing the new flag through the
bitcode and llvm assembly, and resulting test changes. I augmented the
existing auto-hide test to check for this situation.

Summary:
The opt level was not being passed down to the ThinLTO backend when
invoked via clang (for distributed ThinLTO).
This exposed an issue where the new PM was asserting if the Thin or
regular LTO backend pipelines were invoked with -O0 (not a new issue,
could be provoked by invoking in-process *LTO backends via linker using
new PM and -O0). Fix this similar to the old PM where -O0 only does the
necessary lowering of type metadata (WPD and LowerTypeTest passes) and
then quits, rather than asserting.
