Summary:
In the clang UI, replaces -mthread-model posix with -matomics as the
source of truth on threading. In the backend, replaces
-thread-model=posix with the atomics target feature, which is now
collected on the WebAssemblyTargetMachine along with all other used
features. These collected features will also be used to emit the
target features section in the future.
The default configuration for the backend is thread-model=posix and no
atomics, which was previously an invalid configuration. This change
makes the default valid because the thread model is ignored.
A side effect of this change is that objects are never emitted with
passive segments. It will instead be up to the linker to decide
whether sections should be active or passive based on whether atomics
are used in the final link.

Implement options in clang to enable recording the driver command-line
in an ELF section.
Implement a new special named metadata, llvm.commandline, to support
frontends embedding their command-line options in IR/ASM/ELF.
This differs from the GCC implementation in some key ways:
* In GCC there is only one command-line possible per compilation-unit,
in LLVM it mirrors llvm.ident and multiple are allowed.
* In GCC individual options are separated by NULL bytes, in LLVM entire
command-lines are separated by NULL bytes. The advantage of the GCC
approach is to clearly delineate options in the face of embedded
spaces. The advantage of the LLVM approach is to support merging
multiple command-lines unambiguously, while handling embedded spaces
with escaping.

On 32-bit archs, before, we would assume that an indirect symbol will
never have local linkage. This can lead to miscompiles where the

`INDIRECT_SYMBOL_LOCAL` for that specific symbol.

This adds support for LSDA (exception table) generation for wasm EH.
Wasm EH mostly follows the structure of Itanium-style exception tables,
with one exception: a call site table entry in wasm EH corresponds to
not a call site but a landing pad.
In wasm EH, the VM is responsible for stack unwinding. After an
exception occurs and the stack is unwound, the control flow is
transferred to wasm 'catch' instruction by the VM, after which the
personality function is called from the compiler-generated code. (Refer
to WasmEHPrepare pass for more information on this part.)
This patch:
- Changes wasm.landingpad.index intrinsic to take a token argument, to
make this 1:1 match with a catchpad instruction
- Stores landingpad index info and catch type info MachineFunction in
before instruction selection
- Lowers wasm.lsda intrinsic to an MCSymbol pointing to the start of an

- Adds WasmException class with overridden methods for table generation

I am experimenting with a single split dwarf (.dwo sections in .o files).
I want to make linker to ignore .dwo sections in .o, for that I am trying to add
SHF_EXCLUDE flag ("E") for them in my asm sample.
I found that currently, it is impossible to add any flag for debug sections using llvm-mc.
That happens because we have a set of predefined unique sections created early with default flags:

This patch allows a user to add any flags he wants.
I had to edit TargetLoweringObjectFileImpl.cpp to set MetaData type for debug sections.
Their kind was Data by default (so they were allocatable) and so after changes introduced by

Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D50490
llvm-svn: 339534
Summary:
The TType encoding, LSDA encoding, and personality encoding are all
passed explicitly by CodeGen to the assembler through .cfi_* directives,
so only the AsmPrinter needs to know about them.
The FDE CFI encoding however, controls the encoding of the label
implicitly created by the .cfi_startproc directive. That directive seems
to be special in that it doesn't take an encoding, so the assembler just
has to know how to encode one DSO-local label reference from .eh_frame
to .text.
As a result, it looks like MC will continue to have to know when the
large code model is in use. Perhaps we could invent a '.cfi_startproc
[large]' flag so that this knowledge doesn't need to pollute the
assembler.

Summary:
GCC and the binutils COFF linker do comdats differently from MSVC.
If we want to be ABI compatible, we have to do what they do, which is to
emit unique section names like ".text$_Z3foov" instead of short section
names like ".text". Otherwise, the binutils linker gets confused and
reports multiple definition errors when two object files from GCC and
Clang containing the same inline function are linked together.
The best description of the issue is probably at
https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/issues/1677, we don't seem to
have a good one in our tracker.
I fixed up the .pdata and .xdata sections needed everywhere other than
32-bit x86. GCC doesn't use associative comdats for those, it appears to
rely on the section name.

Introduce an extension to support passing linker options to the linker.
These would be ignored by older linkers, but newer linkers which support
this feature would be able to process the linker.
Emit a special discarded section `.linker-option`. The content of this
section is a pair of strings (key, value). The key is a type identifier for
the parameter. This allows for an argument free parameter that will be
processed by the linker with the value being the parameter. As an example,
`lib` identifies a library to be linked against, traditionally the `-l`
argument for Unix-based linkers with the parameter being the library name.

I've reverted a number of files where the results of sorting includes
isn't healthy. Either places where we have legacy code relying on
particular include ordering (where possible, I'll fix these separately)
or where we have particular formatting around #include lines that
I didn't want to disturb in this patch.
This patch is *entirely* mechanical. If you get merge conflicts or
anything, just ignore the changes in this patch and run clang-format

Sorry for any noise here, but it is important to keep these things

Summary:
We were already using 32-bit jump table entries, but this was a
consequence of the default PIC model on Win64, and not an intentional
design decision. This patch ensures that we always use 32-bit label
difference jump table entries on Win64 regardless of the PIC model. This
is a good idea because it saves executable size and object file size.
Moving the jump tables to .rdata cleans up the disassembled object code
and reduces the available ROP targets, but it requires adding one more
RIP-relative lea to the code. COFF doesn't have relocations to express
the difference between two arbitrary symbols, so we can't use the jump
table label in the label difference like we do elsewhere.

The following changes are involved:
* Add the CodeGen option "-arm-execute-only" to the ARM code generator.
* Add the clang flag "-mexecute-only" as well as the GCC-compatible

* When enabled, literal pools are replaced with MOVW/MOVT instructions,
with VMOV used in addition for floating-point literals. As the MOVT
instruction is required, execute-only support is only available in
Thumb mode for targets supporting ARMv8-M baseline or Thumb2.
* Jump tables are placed in data sections when in execute-only mode.
* The execute-only text section is assigned section ID 0, and is
marked as unreadable with the SHF_ARM_PURECODE flag with symbol 'y'.

If a local_unnamed_addr attribute is attached to a global, the address
is known to be insignificant within the module. It is distinct from the
existing unnamed_addr attribute in that it only describes a local property
of the module rather than a global property of the symbol.
This attribute is intended to be used by the code generator and LTO to allow
the linker to decide whether the global needs to be in the symbol table. It is
possible to exclude a global from the symbol table if three things are true:
- This attribute is present on every instance of the global (which means that
the normal rule that the global must have a unique address can be broken without
being observable by the program by performing comparisons against the global's
address)
- The global has linkonce_odr linkage (which means that each linkage unit must have
its own copy of the global if it requires one, and the copy in each linkage unit
must be the same)
- It is a constant or a function (which means that the program cannot observe that
the unique-address rule has been broken by writing to the global)
Although this attribute could in principle be computed from the module
contents, LTO clients (i.e. linkers) will normally need to be able to compute
this property as part of symbol resolution, and it would be inefficient to
materialize every module just to compute it.

Since r207518 they are printed exactly like non-hidden stubs on x86 and
since r207517 on ARM.
This means we can use a single set for all stubs in those platforms.

This code currently relies on static methods in ProfileSummary to determine whether a function is hot or unlikley. I am refactoring the ProfileSummary code and these methods will be removed. As discussed offline, the right way to re-introduce this is to add a pass to annotate functions with unlikely/hot hints and use the hints to determine the prefix here.

Summary:
This adds a unique ID to the COFF section uniquing map, similar to the
one we have for ELF. The unique id is not currently exposed via the
assembler because we don't have a use case for it yet. Users generally
create .pdata with the .seh_* family of directives, and the assembler
internally needs to produce .pdata and .xdata sections corresponding to
the code section.
The association between .text sections and the assembler-created .xdata
and .pdata sections is maintained as an ID field of MCSectionCOFF. The
CFI-related sections are created with the given unique ID, so if more
code is added to the same text section, we can find and reuse the CFI
sections that were already created.

The relative vtable ABI (PR26723) needs PLT relocations to refer to virtual
functions defined in other DSOs. The unnamed_addr attribute means that the
function's address is not significant, so we're allowed to substitute it
with the address of a PLT entry.
Also includes a bonus feature: addends for COFF image-relative references.

COFF doesn't have sections with mergeable contents. Instead, each
constant pool entry ends up in a COMDAT section. The linker, when
choosing between COMDAT sections, doesn't choose the max alignment of
the two sections. You just get whatever alignment was on the section.
If one constant needed a higher alignment in one object file from
another one, then we will get into trouble if the linker chooses the
lower alignment one.
Instead, lets promote the alignment of the constant pool entry to make
sure we don't use an under aligned constant with an instruction which
assumed otherwise.
This fixes PR26680.

covmap needs to created as non allocatable, but not with
SHT_NOTE. The latter was needed to workaround a problem
of BFD linker with gc, which is no longer needed. (A more
proper longer term fix requires changing FE driver to force
referencing the section using linker script).

Coverage mapping data is not referenced by runtime, and they won't be dumped
into profile data. There is no need to allocate memory for covmap sections.
A good side effect of this change is that the coverage map data won't be mistakenly
garbage collected by the linker (for Gold linker only, BFD linker has an issue where the a bug is filed).
Tested with clang build with instrumentation and -fcoverage-mapping and linker GC. The size of
covmap section is ~17.6M so the text segment size will be reduced by this amount with this change.

If a section is rw, it is irrelevant if the dynamic linker will write to
it or not.
It looks like llvm implemented this because gcc was doing it. It looks
like gcc implemented this in the hope that it would put all the
relocated items close together and speed up the dynamic linker.
There are two problem with this:
* It doesn't work. Both bfd and gold will map .data.rel to .data and
concatenate the input sections in the order they are seen.
* If we want a feature like that, it can be implemented directly in the
linker since it knowns where the dynamic relocations are.
llvm-svn: 253436
The way prelink used to work was
* The compiler decides if a given section only has relocations that
are know to point to the same DSO. If so, it names it
.data.rel.ro.local<something>.
* The static linker puts all of these together.
* The prelinker program assigns addresses to each library and resolves
the local relocations.
There are many problems with this:
* It is incompatible with address space randomization.
* The information passed by the compiler is redundant. The linker
knows if a given relocation is in the same DSO or not. If could sort
by that if so desired.
* There are newer ways of speeding up DSO (gnu hash for example).
* Even if we want to implement this again in the compiler, the previous
implementation is pretty broken. It talks about relocations that are
"resolved by the static linker". If they are resolved, there are none
left for the prelinker. What one needs to track is if an expression
will require only dynamic relocations that point to the same DSO.
At this point it looks like the prelinker is an historical curiosity.
For example, fedora has retired it because it failed to build for two
releases

This patch removes support for it. That is, it stops printing the
".local" sections.

A profile of an LTO link of Chrome revealed that we were spending some
~30-50% of execution time in the function Constant::getRelocationInfo(),
which is called from TargetLoweringObjectFile::getKindForGlobal() and in turn
from TargetMachine::getNameWithPrefix().
It turns out that we only need the result of getKindForGlobal() when
targeting Mach-O, so this change moves the relevant part of the logic to
TargetLoweringObjectFileMachO.

This prevents MC clients from getting COFF.h, which conflicts with
winnt.h macros. Also a minor IWYU cleanup. Now the only public headers
including COFF.h are in Object, and they actually need it.
