so we can stop using DW_OP_bit_piece with the wrong semantics.
The entire back story can be found here:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20161114/405934.html
The gist is that in LLVM we've been misinterpreting DW_OP_bit_piece's
offset field to mean the offset into the source variable rather than
the offset into the location at the top the DWARF expression stack. In
order to be able to fix this in a subsequent patch, this patch
introduces a dedicated DW_OP_LLVM_fragment operation with the
semantics that we used to apply to DW_OP_bit_piece, which is what we
actually need while inside of LLVM. This patch is complete with a
bitcode upgrade for expressions using the old format. It does not yet
fix the DWARF backend to use DW_OP_bit_piece correctly.
Implementation note: We discussed several options for implementing
this, including reserving a dedicated field in DIExpression for the
fragment size and offset, but using an custom operator at the end of
the expression works just fine and is more efficient because we then
only pay for it when we need it.

In r266692, we made it possible to emit linkage names for just inlined
functions, putting the attribute on the abstract origin. Make sure we
don't think the linkage-name was already emitted on a declaration.

The DIEUnit class represents a compile or type unit and it owns the unit DIE as an instance variable. This allows anyone with a DIE, to get the unit DIE, and then get back to its DIEUnit without adding any new ivars to the DIE class. Why was this needed? The DIE class has an Offset that is always the CU relative DIE offset, not the "offset in debug info section" as was commented in the header file (the comment has been corrected). This is great for performance because most DIE references are compile unit relative and this means most code that accessed the DIE's offset didn't need to make it into a compile unit relative offset because it already was. When we needed to emit a DW_FORM_ref_addr though, we needed to find the absolute offset of the DIE by finding the DIE's compile/type unit. This class did have the absolute debug info/type offset and could be added to the CU relative offset to compute the absolute offset. With this change we can easily get back to a DIE's DIEUnit which will have this needed offset. Prior to this is required having a DwarfDebug and required calling:
DwarfCompileUnit *DwarfDebug::lookupUnit(const DIE *CU) const;
Now we can use the DIEUnit class to do so without needing DwarfDebug. All clients now use DIEUnit objects (the DwarfDebug stack and the DwarfLinker). A follow on patch for the DWARF generator will also take advantage of this.

This patch makes AsmPrinter less reliant on DwarfDebug by relying on the DWARF version in the AsmPrinter's MCStreamer's MCContext. This allows us to remove the redundant DWARF version from DwarfDebug. It also lets us change code that used to access the AsmPrinter's DwarfDebug just to get to the DWARF version by changing the DWARF version accessor on AsmPrinter so that it grabs the version from its MCStreamer's MCContext.

Summary:
Now DISubroutineType has a 'cc' field which should be a DW_CC_ enum. If
it is present and non-zero, the backend will emit it as a
DW_AT_calling_convention attribute. On the CodeView side, we translate
it to the appropriate enum for the LF_PROCEDURE record.
I added a new LLVM vendor specific enum to the list of DWARF calling
conventions. DWARF does not appear to attempt to standardize these, so I
assume it's OK to do this until we coordinate with GCC on how to emit
vectorcall convention functions.

These attributes aren't used by other debuggers (& may be confused with
other DWARF extensions) so they just waste space (about 1.5% on .dwo
file size on a random large program I tested).
We could remove the ObjC property ones too, but I figured they were
probably more necessary when trying to understand ObjC (I could be wrong
though) & so any debugger interested in working with ObjC would use
them, perhaps? (also, there are some legacy tests in Clang that test for
them - making it one of those annoying cross-project commits and/or
cleanup to refactor those tests)

The DWARF spec clearly states that a bit field member should have either a

The DWARF2 specification of DW_AT_bit_offset is ambiguous for
little-endian machines, but by restoring to the old behavior
we match what debuggers expect and what other popular compilers
generate.
llvm-svn: 267896
The DWARF2 specification of DW_AT_bit_offset was written from the perspective of
a big-endian machine with unclear semantics for other systems. DWARF4
deprecated DW_AT_bit_offset and introduced a new attribute DW_AT_data_bit_offset
that simply counts the number of bits from the beginning of the containing
entity regardless of endianness.
After this patch LLVM emits DW_AT_bit_offset for DWARF 2 or 3 and
DW_AT_data_bit_offset when DWARF 4 or later is requested.

Eliminate DITypeIdentifierMap and make DITypeRef a thin wrapper around
DIType*. It is no longer legal to refer to a DICompositeType by its
'identifier:', and DIBuilder no longer retains all types with an
'identifier:' automatically.
Aside from the bitcode upgrade, this is mainly removing logic to resolve
an MDString-based reference to an actualy DIType. The commits leading
up to this have made the implicit type map in DICompileUnit's
'retainedTypes:' field superfluous.
This does not remove DITypeRef, DIScopeRef, DINodeRef, and
DITypeRefArray, or stop using them in DI-related metadata. Although as
of this commit they aren't serving a useful purpose, there are patchces
under review to reuse them for CodeView support.
The tests in LLVM were updated with deref-typerefs.sh, which is attached

When we suppress linkage names, for a non-inlined subprogram the name
can still be found in the object-file symbol table, because we have
the code address of the subprogram. This is not necessarily the case
for an inlined subprogram, so we still want to emit the linkage name
in the DWARF. Put this on the abstract-origin DIE because it's common
to all inlined instances.

Rather than storing type units in a vector and emitting them at the end
of code generation, emit them immediately and destroy them, reclaiming the
memory we were using for their DIEs.
In one benchmark carried out against Chromium's 50 largest (by bitcode
file size) translation units, total peak memory consumption with type units
decreased by median 17%, or by 7% when compared against disabling type units.
Tested using check-{llvm,clang}, the GDB 7.5 test suite (with
'-fdebug-types-section') and by eyeballing llvm-dwarfdump output on those
Chromium translation units with split DWARF both disabled and enabled, and
verifying that the only changes were to addresses and abbreviation ordering.

This is handy for some AutoFDO stuff, and seems like a minor improvement
to correctness (otherwise a debug info consumer might think the decl
line/file of the def was the same as that of the declaration - though
what a consumer might use that for, I'm not sure - maybe "list <func>"
would've misbehaved with the old behavior?) and at a minor cost (in my
experiment, with fission, without type units, without compression, 0.01%
growth in debug info in the executable/objects, 0.02% growth in the .dwo
files).
llvm-svn: 249487
Currently the DWARF backend requires that subprograms have a type, and
the type is ignored if it has an empty type array. The long term
direction here -- see PR23079 -- is instead to skip the type entirely if
there's no valid type.
It turns out we have cases in tree of missing types on subprograms, but
since they're not referenced by compile units, the backend never crashes
on them. One option would be to add a Verifier check that subprograms
have types, and fix the bitrot. However, this is a fair bit of churn
(20-30 testcases) that would be reversed anyway by PR23079.
I found this inconsistency because of a WIP patch and upgrade script for
PR23367 that started crashing on test/DebugInfo/2010-10-01-crash.ll.
This commit updates the testcase to reference the subprogram from the
compile unit, and fixes the resulting crash (in line with the direction
of PR23079). This also updates `DIBuilder` to stop assuming a non-null
pointer for the subroutine types.

Mangled "linkage" names can be huge, and if the debugger (or other
tools) have no use for them, the size savings can be very impressive
(on the order of 40%).
Add one test for controlling behavior, and modify a number of tests to
either stop using linkage names, or make llc emit them (so these tests
will still run when the default triple is for PS4).

Remove the fake `DW_TAG_auto_variable` and `DW_TAG_arg_variable` tags,
using `DW_TAG_variable` in their place Stop exposing the `tag:` field at
all in the assembly format for `DILocalVariable`.
Most of the testcase updates were generated by the following sed script:
find test/ -name "*.ll" -o -name "*.mir" |
xargs grep -l 'DILocalVariable' |
xargs sed -i '' \
-e 's/tag: DW_TAG_arg_variable, //' \
-e 's/tag: DW_TAG_auto_variable, //'
There were only a handful of tests in `test/Assembly` that I needed to
update by hand.
(Note: a follow-up could change `DILocalVariable::DILocalVariable()` to
set the tag to `DW_TAG_formal_parameter` instead of `DW_TAG_variable`
(as appropriate), instead of having that logic magically in the backend
in `DbgVariable`. I've added a FIXME to that effect.)

Refactor `isUnsignedDIType()` to deal with `DICompositeType` explicitly.
Since `DW_TAG_subroutine_type` isn't handled here (the assertions about
