Summary:
Many directives are unavailable, and support for others may be limited.
This first draft has preliminary support for:
- conditional directives (including errors),
- data allocation (unsigned types up to 8 bytes, and ALIGN),
- equates/variables (numeric and text),
- and procedure directives (without parameters),
as well as COMMENT, ECHO, INCLUDE, INCLUDELIB, PUBLIC, and EXTERN. Text variables (aka text macros) are expanded in-place wherever the identifier occurs.
We deliberately ignore all ml.exe processor directives.
Prominent features not yet supported:
- structs
- macros (both procedures and functions)
- procedures (with specified parameters)
- substitution & expansion operators
Conditional directives are complicated by the fact that "ifdef rax" is a valid way to check if a file is being assembled for a 64-bit x86 processor; we add support for "ifdef <register>" in general, which requires adding a tryParseRegister method to all MCTargetAsmParsers. (Some targets require backtracking in the non-register case.)

The current code has following issues:
1) It has a duplicated logic part.
2) This logic relies on unwrapOrError calls, but if we want to convert
them to warnings, we will need to change all of them what is hard to do
because of the duplication.
In this patch I've created a new method that returns Expected<> what allows
now to catch all errors in a single place and remove the code duplication.
Note: this change is itself a refactor NFC. It does not change the current logic
anyhow. It prepares the code for the follow-up(s).

Passing '-dlopen <library-path>' to lli will cause the specified library to be
loaded (via llvm::sys::DynamicLibrary::LoadLibraryPermanently) before JIT'd code
is executed, making the library's symbols accessible to JIT'd code.
This avoids questionable code such as taking address of current
range-based for variable and comparing it with vector begin iterator.
While this may not be a problem in itself, it can be written more consice.
This was initially suggested by @aaronpuchert.
It seems like gcc 5.5 wants to iterate over the new variable instead
of the container that lives outside the loop. But of course this
new container is empty.
Plus using a different variable names makes the code more readable.
The goal of this patch is to maximize CPU utilization on multi-socket or high core count systems, so that parallel computations such as LLD/ThinLTO can use all hardware threads in the system. Before this patch, on Windows, a maximum of 64 hardware threads could be used at most, in some cases dispatched only on one CPU socket.
== Background ==
Windows doesn't have a flat cpu_set_t like Linux. Instead, it projects hardware CPUs (or NUMA nodes) to applications through a concept of "processor groups". A "processor" is the smallest unit of execution on a CPU, that is, an hyper-thread if SMT is active; a core otherwise. There's a limit of 32-bit processors on older 32-bit versions of Windows, which later was raised to 64-processors with 64-bit versions of Windows. This limit comes from the affinity mask, which historically is represented by the sizeof(void*). Consequently, the concept of "processor groups" was introduced for dealing with systems with more than 64 hyper-threads.
By default, the Windows OS assigns only one "processor group" to each starting application, in a round-robin manner. If the application wants to use more processors, it needs to programmatically enable it, by assigning threads to other "processor groups". This also means that affinity cannot cross "processor group" boundaries; one can only specify a "preferred" group on start-up, but the application is free to allocate more groups if it wants to.
This creates a peculiar situation, where newer CPUs like the AMD EPYC 7702P (64-cores, 128-hyperthreads) are projected by the OS as two (2) "processor groups". This means that by default, an application can only use half of the cores. This situation could only get worse in the years to come, as dies with more cores will appear on the market.
== The problem ==
The heavyweight_hardware_concurrency() API was introduced so that only *one hardware thread per core* was used. Once that API returns, that original intention is lost, only the number of threads is retained. Consider a situation, on Windows, where the system has 2 CPU sockets, 18 cores each, each core having 2 hyper-threads, for a total of 72 hyper-threads. Both heavyweight_hardware_concurrency() and hardware_concurrency() currently return 36, because on Windows they are simply wrappers over std:🧵:hardware_concurrency() -- which can only return processors from the current "processor group".
== The changes in this patch ==
To solve this situation, we capture (and retain) the initial intention until the point of usage, through a new ThreadPoolStrategy class. The number of threads to use is deferred as late as possible, until the moment where the std::threads are created (ThreadPool in the case of ThinLTO).
When using hardware_concurrency(), setting ThreadCount to 0 now means to use all the possible hardware CPU (SMT) threads. Providing a ThreadCount above to the maximum number of threads will have no effect, the maximum will be used instead.
The heavyweight_hardware_concurrency() is similar to hardware_concurrency(), except that only one thread per hardware *core* will be used.
When LLVM_ENABLE_THREADS is OFF, the threading APIs will always return 1, to ensure any caller loops will be exercised at least once.

function_ref is non-owning, so if we get it as a parameter in constructor,
our reference goes out-of-scope as soon as constructor returns.
Instead, let's just take it as a parameter to the actual `generate()` call
Summary:
Currently, we only have nice exploration for LEA instruction,
while for the rest, we rely on `randomizeUnsetVariables()`
to sometimes generate something interesting.
While that works, it isn't very reliable in coverage :)
Here, i'm making an assumption that while we may want to explore
multi-instruction configs, we are most interested in the
characteristics of the main instruction we were asked about.
Which we can do, by taking the existing `randomizeMCOperand()`,
and turning it on it's head - instead of relying on it to randomly fill
one of the interesting values, let's pregenerate all the possible interesting
values for the variable, and then generate as much `InstructionTemplate`
combinations of these possible values for variables as needed/possible.
Of course, that requires invasive changes to no longer pass just the
naked `Instruction`, but sometimes partially filled `InstructionTemplate`.
As it can be seen from the test, this allows us to explore
`X86::OperandType::OPERAND_COND_CODE` for instructions
that take such an operand.
I'm hoping this will greatly simplify exploration.

Summary:
Simplifies the C++11-style "-> decltype(...)" return-type deduction.
Note that you have to be careful about whether the function return type
is `auto` or `decltype(auto)`. The difference is that bare `auto`
strips const and reference, just like lambda return type deduction. In
some cases that's what we want (or more likely, we know that the return
type is a value type), but whenever we're wrapping a templated function
which might return a reference, we need to be sure that the return type
is decltype(auto).
No functional change.

Fix inconsistencies in error reporting created by mixing
`report_fatal_error()` and `ExitOnErr()`, and add additional information
to the error message to make it more user friendly. Minimize the use
`report_fatal_error()` because it's meant for use in very rare cases and
it results in low information density of the error messages.
Summary of the new design:
* For command line argument errors output `llvm-exegesis: <error_message>`,
which is consistent with the error output format emitted by the backend
which checks correctness of the command line arguments.
* For other errors the format `llvm-exegesis error: <error_message>` is used.
** If the error occurred during file access `<error_message>` will have
of two parts: `'<file_name>': <rest_of_the_error_message>`

All errors of type `Failure` are `StringError`s. In order for exit code
mapping to detect that specifically a clustering error has occurred it
needs to have a different type.
This patch also prepares D74085 where termination `report_fatal_error()`
will be replaced with emitting `StringError`s.
