Now the Windows mangling modes ('w' and 'x') do not do any mangling for
symbols starting with '?'. This means that clang can stop adding the
hideous '\01' leading escape. This means LLVM debug logs are less likely
to contain ASCII escape characters and it will be easier to copy and
paste MS symbol names from IR.
Finally.
For non-Windows platforms, names starting with '?' still get IR
mangling, so once clang stops escaping MS C++ names, we will get extra
'_' prefixing on MachO. That's fine, since it is currently impossible to
construct a triple that uses the MS C++ ABI in clang and emits macho
object files.

`llvm.used` contains a list of pointers to named values which the
compiler, assembler, and linker are required to treat as if there is a
reference that they cannot see. Ensure that the symbols are preserved
by adding an explicit `-include` reference to the linker command.

The summary is that it moves the mangling earlier and replaces a few
calls to .addExternalSymbol with addSym.
I originally wanted to replace all the uses of addExternalSymbol with
addSym, but noticed it was a lot of work and doesn't need to be done
all at once.

This reverts commit r239437.
This broke clang-cl self-hosts. We'd end up calling the __imp_ symbol
directly instead of using it to do an indirect function call.

Summary:
Now that the DataLayout is a mandatory part of the module, let's start
cleaning the codebase. This patch is a first attempt at doing that.
This patch is not exactly NFC as for instance some places were passing
a nullptr instead of the DataLayout, possibly just because there was a
default value on the DataLayout argument to many functions in the API.
Even though it is not purely NFC, there is no change in the
validation.
I turned as many pointer to DataLayout to references, this helped
figuring out all the places where a nullptr could come up.
I had initially a local version of this patch broken into over 30
independant, commits but some later commit were cleaning the API and
touching part of the code modified in the previous commits, so it
seemed cleaner without the intermediate state.

This is a Microsoft calling convention that supports both x86 and x86_64
subtargets. It passes vector and floating point arguments in XMM0-XMM5,
and passes them indirectly once they are consumed.
Homogenous vector aggregates of up to four elements can be passed in
sequential vector registers, but this part is not implemented in LLVM
and will be handled in Clang.
On 32-bit x86, it is similar to fastcall in that it uses ecx:edx as
integer register parameters and is callee cleanup. On x86_64, it
delegates to the normal win64 calling convention.

This reverts commit r214981.
I'm not sure what I was thinking when I wrote this. Testing with MSVC
shows that this function is mangled to '@f@8':
int __fastcall f(int a, int b);

These linkages were introduced some time ago, but it was never very
clear what exactly their semantics were or what they should be used
for. Some investigation found these uses:
* utf-16 strings in clang.
* non-unnamed_addr strings produced by the sanitizers.
It turns out they were just working around a more fundamental problem.
For some sections a MachO linker needs a symbol in order to split the
section into atoms, and llvm had no idea that was the case. I fixed
that in r201700 and it is now safe to use the private linkage. When
the object ends up in a section that requires symbols, llvm will use a
'l' prefix instead of a 'L' prefix and things just work.
With that, these linkages were already dead, but there was a potential
future user in the objc metadata information. I am still looking at
CGObjcMac.cpp, but at this point I am convinced that linker_private
and linker_private_weak are not what they need.
The objc uses are currently split in
* Regular symbols (no '\01' prefix). LLVM already directly provides
whatever semantics they need.
* Uses of a private name (start with "\01L" or "\01l") and private
linkage. We can drop the "\01L" and "\01l" prefixes as soon as llvm
agrees with clang on L being ok or not for a given section. I have two
patches in code review for this.
* Uses of private name and weak linkage.
The last case is the one that one could think would fit one of these
linkages. That is not the case. The semantics are
* the linker will merge these symbol by *name*.
* the linker will hide them in the final DSO.
Given that the merging is done by name, any of the private (or
internal) linkages would be a bad match. They allow llvm to rename the
symbols, and that is really not what we want. From the llvm point of
view, these objects should really be (linkonce|weak)(_odr)?.
For now, just keeping the "\01l" prefix is probably the best for these
symbols. If we one day want to have a more direct support in llvm,
IMHO what we should add is not a linkage, it is just a hidden_symbol
attribute. It would be applicable to multiple linkages. For example,
on weak it would produce the current behavior we have for objc
metadata. On internal, it would be equivalent to private (and we
should then remove private).

r201608 made llvm corretly handle private globals with MachO. r201622 fixed
a bug in it and r201624 and r201625 were changes for using private linkage,
assuming that llvm would do the right thing.
They all got reverted because r201608 introduced a crash in LTO. This patch
includes a fix for that. The issue was that TargetLoweringObjectFile now has
to be initialized before we can mangle names of private globals. This is
trivially true during the normal codegen pipeline (the asm printer does it),
but LTO has to do it manually.
llvm-svn: 201700
The IR
@foo = private constant i32 42
is valid, but before this patch we would produce an invalid MachO from it. It
was invalid because it would use an L label in a section where the liker needs
the labels in order to atomize it.
One way of fixing it would be to just reject this IR in the backend, but that
would not be very front end friendly.
What this patch does is use an 'l' prefix in sections that we know the linker
requires symbols for atomizing them. This allows frontends to just use
private and not worry about which sections they go to or how the linker handles
them.
One small issue with this strategy is that now a symbol name depends on the
section, which is not available before codegen. This is not a problem in
practice. The reason is that it only happens with private linkage, which will
be ignored by the non codegen users (llvm-nm and llvm-ar).

A const ObjectFile needs to be able to provide its name. For an IRObjectFile,
that means being able to call the mangler. Since each IRObjectFile can have
a different mangling, it is natural for them to contain a Mangler which is
therefore also const.
llvm-svn: 201113
Calls with inalloca are lowered by skipping all stores for arguments
passed in memory and the initial stack adjustment to allocate argument
memory.
Now the frontend is responsible for the memory layout, and the backend
doesn't have to do any work. As a result these changes are pretty
minimal.

This is a bit more convenient for some callers, but more importantly, it is
easier to implement correctly. Doing this removes the patching of already
printed data that was used for fastcall, fixing a crash with private fastcall
symbols.
llvm-svn: 200367
fastcall requires @ as global prefix instead of _ but getNameWithPrefix
wrongly assumes the OutName buffer is empty and replaces at index 0.
For imported functions this buffer is pre-filled with "__imp_" resulting
in broken "@_imp_foo@0" mangling.
Instead replace at the proper index. We also never have to prepend the
@-prefix because this fastcall mangling is only used on 32-bit Windows
targets which have _ has global prefix.
