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.

Print aliases in topological order, that is, for any alias a = b,

GCC also prints aliases in topological order.

This patch adds support for the MachO .alt_entry assembly directive, and uses
it for global aliases with non-zero GEP offsets. The alt_entry flag indicates
that a symbol should be layed out immediately after the preceding symbol.
Conceptually it introduces an alternate entry point for a function or data
structure. E.g.:
safe_foo:
// check preconditions for foo
.alt_entry fast_foo
fast_foo:
// body of foo, can assume preconditions.
The .alt_entry flag is also implicitly set on assembly aliases of the form:
a = b + C
where C is a non-zero constant, since these have the same effect as an
alt_entry symbol: they introduce a label that cannot be moved relative to the
preceding one. Setting the alt_entry flag on aliases of this form fixes
http://llvm.org/PR25381.

Update APIs in MachineInstrBundle.h to take and return MachineInstr&

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.

In r256077, I added printing for DIExpressions in DEBUG_VALUE comments,
but neglected to handle DW_OP_bit_piece operands. Thanks to
Mikael Holmen and Joerg Sonnenberger for spotting this.
llvm-svn: 256236
Summary:
First up is instcombine, where in the dbg.declare -> dbg.value conversion,
the llvm.dbg.value needs to be called on the actual loaded value, rather
than the address (since the whole point of this transformation is to be
able to get rid of the alloca). Further, now that that's cleaned up, we
can remove a hack in the backend, that would add an implicit OP_deref if
the argument to dbg.value was an alloca. This stems from before the
existence of DIExpression and is no longer necessary since the deref can
be expressed explicitly.
Now, in order to make sure that the tests pass with this change, we need to
correct the printing of DEBUG_VALUE comments to take into account the
expression, which wasn't taken into account before.
Unfortunately, for both these changes, there were a number of incorrect
test cases (mostly the wrong number of DW_OP_derefs, but also a couple
where the test itself was broken more badly). aprantl and I have gone
through and adjusted these test case in order to make them pass with
these fixes and in some cases to make sure they're actually testing
what they are meant to test.

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.

Several places in AsmPrinter.cpp print comments describing MachineOperand
registers using MCRegisterInfo, which uses MCOperand-oriented names. This
doesn't work for targets that use virtual registers exclusively, as
WebAssembly does, since virtual registers are represented and printed
differently.
This patch preserves what seems to be the spirit of r229978, avoiding the
use of TM.getSubtargetImpl(), while still using MachineOperand-oriented
printing for MachineOperands.

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
(http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/prelink.git/commit/?id=eb43100a8331d91c801ee3dcdb0a0bb9babfdc1f)

MCRelaxableFragment previously kept a copy of MCSubtargetInfo and
MCInst to enable re-encoding the MCInst later during relaxation. A copy
of MCSubtargetInfo (instead of a reference or pointer) was needed
because the feature bits could be modified by the parser.
This commit replaces the MCSubtargetInfo copy in MCRelaxableFragment
with a constant reference to MCSubtargetInfo. The copies of
MCSubtargetInfo are kept in MCContext, and the target parsers are now
responsible for asking MCContext to provide a copy whenever the feature
bits of MCSubtargetInfo have to be toggled.

Summary:
Initially, these intrinsics seemed like part of a family of "frame"
related intrinsics, but now I think that's more confusing than helpful.
Initially, the LangRef specified that this would create a new kind of
allocation that would be allocated at a fixed offset from the frame
pointer (EBP/RBP). We ended up dropping that design, and leaving the
stack frame layout alone.
These intrinsics are really about sharing local stack allocations, not
frame pointers. I intend to go further and add an `llvm.localaddress()`
intrinsic that returns whatever register (EBP, ESI, ESP, RBX) is being
used to address locals, which should not be confused with the frame
pointer.
Naming suggestions at this point are welcome, I'm happy to re-run sed.

The personality routine currently lives in the LandingPadInst.
This isn't desirable because:
- All LandingPadInsts in the same function must have the same

- There is ongoing work to introduce EH IR constructs other than
LandingPadInst. Moving the personality routine off of any one
particular Instruction and onto the parent function seems a lot better
than have N different places a personality function can sneak onto an

This drops memory usage on Mach-O from 975 MB down to 919 MB (5.8%).
The only call is when `!doesDwarfUseRelocationsAcrossSections()` --

ELF anyway, since it creates 1 fewer temp symbol, and it gets called far

Finish off PR23080 by renaming the debug info IR constructs from `MD*`
to `DI*`. The last of the `DIDescriptor` classes were deleted in
r235356, and the last of the related typedefs removed in r235413, so
this has all baked for about a week.
Note: If you have out-of-tree code (like a frontend), I recommend that
you get everything compiling and tests passing with the *previous*
commit before updating to this one. It'll be easier to keep track of
what code is using the `DIDescriptor` hierarchy and what you've already
updated, and I think you're extremely unlikely to insert bugs. YMMV of
course.

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 removes a bit of duplicated code and more importantly, remembers the
labels so that they don't need to be looked up by name.
This in turn allows for any name to be used and avoids a crash if the name
we wanted was already taken.

Front-ends could use global unnamed_addr to hold pointers to other
symbols, like @gotequivalent below:
@foo = global i32 42
@gotequivalent = private unnamed_addr constant i32* @foo
@delta = global i32 trunc (i64 sub (i64 ptrtoint (i32** @gotequivalent to i64),
i64 ptrtoint (i32* @delta to i64))
to i32)
The global @delta holds a data "PC"-relative offset to @gotequivalent,
an unnamed pointer to @foo. The darwin/x86-64 assembly output for this follows:
.globl _foo
_foo:
.long 42
.globl _gotequivalent
_gotequivalent:
.quad _foo
.globl _delta
_delta:
.long _gotequivalent-_delta
Since unnamed_addr indicates that the address is not significant, only
the content, we can optimize the case above by replacing pc-relative
accesses to "GOT equivalent" globals, by a PC relative access to the GOT
entry of the final symbol instead. Therefore, "delta" can contain a pc
relative relocation to foo's GOT entry and we avoid the emission of
"gotequivalent", yielding the assembly code below:
.globl _foo
_foo:
.long 42
.globl _delta
_delta:
.long _foo@GOTPCREL+4
There are a couple of advantages of doing this: (1) Front-ends that need
to emit a great deal of data to store pointers to external symbols could
save space by not emitting such "got equivalent" globals and (2) IR
constructs combined with this opt opens a way to represent GOT pcrel
relocations by using the LLVM IR, which is something we previously had
no way to express.

AsmPrinter.
getSubtargetInfo now asserts that the MachineFunction exists.
Debug printing of register naming now uses the register info
from MCAsmInfo as that's unchanging.
