Summary:
This patch enable assembly output of local commons for AIX using .lcomm
directives. Adds a EmitXCOFFLocalCommonSymbol to MCStreamer so we can emit the
AIX version of .lcomm assembly directives which include a csect name. Handle the
case of BSS locals in PPCAIXAsmPrinter by using EmitXCOFFLocalCommonSymbol. Adds
a test for generating .lcomm on AIX Targets.

The original behavior was to always emit the offsets to each call site in the
call site table as uleb128 values, however on some architectures (eg RISCV)
these uleb128 offsets into the code cannot always be resolved until link time
(because relaxation will invalidate any calculated offsets), and there are no
appropriate relocations for uleb128 values. As a consequence it needs to be
possible to specify an alternative.
This also switches RISCV to use DW_EH_PE_udata4 for call side encodings in
.gcc_except_table

This patch sets correct encodings for DWARF exception handling for RISC-V
(other than call site encoding, which must be udata4 rather than uleb128 and
is handled by D63415).
This has the same intend as D63409, except this version matches GCC/binutils
behaviour which uses the same encodings regardless of PIC/non-PIC and
medlow/medany code model.

Summary:
This makes it so that IR files using triples without an environment work

Typically, the MSVC behavior is more desirable. For example, it tends to

This patch implements a limited form of autolinking primarily designed to allow
either the --dependent-library compiler option, or "comment lib" pragmas (
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/preprocessor/comment-c-cpp?view=vs-2017) in
C/C++ e.g. #pragma comment(lib, "foo"), to cause an ELF linker to automatically
add the specified library to the link when processing the input file generated
by the compiler.
Currently this extension is unique to LLVM and LLD. However, care has been taken
to design this feature so that it could be supported by other ELF linkers.
The design goals were to provide:
- A simple linking model for developers to reason about.
- The ability to to override autolinking from the linker command line.
- Source code compatibility, where possible, with "comment lib" pragmas in other
environments (MSVC in particular).
Dependent library support is implemented differently for ELF platforms than on
the other platforms. Primarily this difference is that on ELF we pass the
dependent library specifiers directly to the linker without manipulating them.
This is in contrast to other platforms where they are mapped to a specific
linker option by the compiler. This difference is a result of the greater
variety of ELF linkers and the fact that ELF linkers tend to handle libraries in
a more complicated fashion than on other platforms. This forces us to defer
handling the specifiers to the linker.
In order to achieve a level of source code compatibility with other platforms
we have restricted this feature to work with libraries that meet the following
"reasonable" requirements:
1. There are no competing defined symbols in a given set of libraries, or
if they exist, the program owner doesn't care which is linked to their
program.
2. There may be circular dependencies between libraries.
The binary representation is a mergeable string section (SHF_MERGE,
SHF_STRINGS), called .deplibs, with custom type SHT_LLVM_DEPENDENT_LIBRARIES
(0x6fff4c04). The compiler forms this section by concatenating the arguments of
the "comment lib" pragmas and --dependent-library options in the order they are
encountered. Partial (-r, -Ur) links are handled by concatenating .deplibs
sections with the normal mergeable string section rules. As an example, #pragma
comment(lib, "foo") would result in:
.section ".deplibs","MS",@llvm_dependent_libraries,1
.asciz "foo"
For LTO, equivalent information to the contents of a the .deplibs section can be
retrieved by the LLD for bitcode input files.
LLD processes the dependent library specifiers in the following way:
1. Dependent libraries which are found from the specifiers in .deplibs sections
of relocatable object files are added when the linker decides to include that
file (which could itself be in a library) in the link. Dependent libraries
behave as if they were appended to the command line after all other options. As
a consequence the set of dependent libraries are searched last to resolve
symbols.
2. It is an error if a file cannot be found for a given specifier.
3. Any command line options in effect at the end of the command line parsing apply
to the dependent libraries, e.g. --whole-archive.
4. The linker tries to add a library or relocatable object file from each of the
strings in a .deplibs section by; first, handling the string as if it was
specified on the command line; second, by looking for the string in each of the
library search paths in turn; third, by looking for a lib<string>.a or
lib<string>.so (depending on the current mode of the linker) in each of the
library search paths.
5. A new command line option --no-dependent-libraries tells LLD to ignore the
dependent libraries.
Rationale for the above points:
1. Adding the dependent libraries last makes the process simple to understand
from a developers perspective. All linkers are able to implement this scheme.
2. Error-ing for libraries that are not found seems like better behavior than
failing the link during symbol resolution.
3. It seems useful for the user to be able to apply command line options which
will affect all of the dependent libraries. There is a potential problem of
surprise for developers, who might not realize that these options would apply
to these "invisible" input files; however, despite the potential for surprise,
this is easy for developers to reason about and gives developers the control
that they may require.
4. This algorithm takes into account all of the different ways that ELF linkers
find input files. The different search methods are tried by the linker in most
obvious to least obvious order.
5. I considered adding finer grained control over which dependent libraries were
ignored (e.g. MSVC has /nodefaultlib:<library>); however, I concluded that this
is not necessary: if finer control is required developers can fall back to using
the command line directly.

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

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

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:
https://github.com/llvm-mirror/llvm/blob/master/lib/MC/MCObjectFileInfo.cpp#L391
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.
