After a first attempt to fix the test-suite failures, my first recommit
caused the same failures again. I had updated CMakeList.txt files of
tests that needed -fcommon, but it turns out that there are also
Makefiles which are used by some bots, so I've updated these Makefiles
now too.
See the original commit message for more details on this change:
0a9fc9233e
This includes fixes for:
- test-suite: some benchmarks need to be compiled with -fcommon, see D75557.
- compiler-rt: one test needed -fcommon, and another a change, see D75520.
This reverts commit 0a9fc9233e.
Going to look at the asan failures.
I find the failures in the test suite weird, because they look
like compile time test and I don't understand how that can be
failing, but will have a brief look at that too.
This makes -fno-common the default for all targets because this has performance
and code-size benefits and is more language conforming for C code.
Additionally, GCC10 also defaults to -fno-common and so we get consistent
behaviour with GCC.
With this change, C code that uses tentative definitions as definitions of a
variable in multiple translation units will trigger multiple-definition linker
errors. Generally, this occurs when the use of the extern keyword is neglected
in the declaration of a variable in a header file. In some cases, no specific
translation unit provides a definition of the variable. The previous behavior
can be restored by specifying -fcommon.
As GCC has switched already, we benefit from applications already being ported
and existing documentation how to do this. For example:
- https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-10/porting_to.html
- https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Gcc_10_porting_notes/fno_common

Summary:
Clang -fpic defaults to -fno-semantic-interposition (GCC -fpic defaults
to -fsemantic-interposition).
Users need to specify -fsemantic-interposition to get semantic
interposition behavior.
Semantic interposition is currently a best-effort feature. There may
still be some cases where it is not handled well.

Code in CGCall.cpp that loads up function arguments that need to be
coerced to a different type may in some cases ignore the fact that
the source of the argument is not naturally aligned. This may cause
incorrect code to be generated. In some places in CreateCoercedLoad,
we already have setAlignment calls to address this, but I ran into one
where it was missing, causing wrong code generation on SystemZ.
However, in that location, we do not actually know what alignment of
the source location we can rely on; the callers do not pass anything
to this routine. This is already an issue in other places in
CreateCoercedLoad; and the same problem exists for CreateCoercedStore.
To avoid pessimising code, and to fix the FIXMEs already in place,
this patch also adds an alignment argument to the CreateCoerced*
routines and uses it instead of forcing an alignment of 1. The
callers are changed to pass in the best information they have.
This actually requires changes in a number of existing test cases
since we now get better alignment in many places.

Code in CodeGenModule::GetOrCreateLLVMGlobal that sets up GlobalValue
object for LLVM external symbols has this comment:
// FIXME: This code is overly simple and should be merged with other global
// handling.
One part does seems to be "overly simple" currently is that this code
never sets any alignment info on the GlobalValue, so that the emitted
IR does not have any align attribute on external globals. This can
lead to unnecessarily inefficient code generation.
This patch adds a GV->setAlignment call to set alignment info.

SystemZ prefers to align all global variables to two bytes, which is
implemented by setting the TargetInfo member MinGlobalAlign.
However, for compatibility with existing compilers this should *not*
change the ABI alignment value as retrieved via __alignof__, which
it currently does.
This patch fixes the issue by having ASTContext::getDeclAlign ignore
the MinGlobalAlign setting in the ForAlignof case.
Since SystemZ is the only platform setting MinGlobalAlign, this should
cause no change for any other target.
