Summary:
This is needed to implemented the same approach as lld (implemented in r338434)
for how to handling symbols that can be generated by LTO code generator
but not present in the symbol table for linker that uses legacy C APIs.
libLTO is in charge of providing the list of symbols. Linker is in
charge of implementing the eager loading from static libraries using
the list of symbols.

The bitstream remark serializer landed in r367372.
This adds a bitstream remark parser that parser bitstream remark files
to llvm::remarks::Remark objects through the RemarkParser interface.
A few interesting things to point out:
* There are parsing helpers to parse the different types of blocks
* The main parsing helper allows us to parse remark metadata and open an
external file containing the encoded remarks
* This adds a dependency from the Remarks library to the BitstreamReader
library
* The testing strategy is to create a remark entry through YAML, parse
it, serialize it to bitstream, parse that back and compare the objects.
* There are close to no tests for malformed bitstream remarks, due to
the lack of textual format for the bitstream format.
* This adds a new C API for parsing bitstream remarks:
LLVMRemarkParserCreateBitstream.
* This bumps the REMARKS_API_VERSION to 1.

Summary: This exposes `CallInst`'s tail call kind via new `LLVMGetTailCallKind` and `LLVMSetTailCallKind` functions. The motivation for this is to be able to see `musttail` for languages that require mandatory tail calls for correctness. Today only the weaker `LLVMSetTail` is exposed and there is no way to set `GuaranteedTailCallOpt` via the C API.

Before, everything was based on some kind of type erased parser
implementation which container a lot of boilerplate code when multiple
formats were to be supported.
This simplifies it by:
* the remark now owns its arguments
* *always* returning an error from the implementation side
* working around the way the YAML parser reports errors: catch them through
callbacks and re-insert them in a proper llvm::Error
* add a CParser wrapper that is used when implementing the C API to
avoid cluttering the C++ API with useless state
* LLVMRemarkParserGetNext now returns an object that needs to be
released to avoid leaking resources
* add a new API to dispose of a remark entry: LLVMRemarkEntryDispose

Dependent libraries support for the legacy api was committed in a
broken state (see: https://reviews.llvm.org/D60274). This was missed
due to the painful nature of having to integrate the changes into a
linker in order to test. This change implements support for dependent
libraries in the legacy LTO api:
- I have removed the current api function, which returns a single
string, and added functions to access each dependent library
specifier individually.
- To reduce the testing pain, I have made the api functions as thin as
possible to maximize coverage from llvm-lto.
- When doing ThinLTO the system linker will load the modules lazily
when scanning the input files. Unfortunately, when modules are
lazily loaded there is no access to module level named metadata. To
fix this I have added api functions that allow querying the IRSymtab
for the dependent libraries. I hope to expand the api in the future
so that, eventually, all the information needed by a client linker
during scan can be retrieved from the IRSymtab.

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.

COMMON blocks are a feature of Fortran that has no direct analog in C languages, but they are similar to data sections in assembly language programming. A COMMON block is a named area of memory that holds a collection of variables. Fortran subprograms may map the COMMON block memory area to their own, possibly distinct, non-empty list of variables. A Fortran COMMON block might look like the following example.
COMMON /ALPHA/ I, J
For this construct, the compiler generates a new scope-like DI construct (!DICommonBlock) into which variables (see I, J above) can be placed. As the common block implies a range of storage with global lifetime, the !DICommonBlock refers to a !DIGlobalVariable. The Fortran variable that comprise the COMMON block are also linked via metadata to offsets within the global variable that stands for the entire common block.
@alpha_ = common global %alphabytes_ zeroinitializer, align 64, !dbg !27, !dbg !30, !dbg !33!14 = distinct !DISubprogram(…)
!20 = distinct !DICommonBlock(scope: !14, declaration: !25, name: "alpha")
!25 = distinct !DIGlobalVariable(scope: !20, name: "common alpha", type: !24)
!27 = !DIGlobalVariableExpression(var: !25, expr: !DIExpression())
!29 = distinct !DIGlobalVariable(scope: !20, name: "i", file: !3, type: !28)
!30 = !DIGlobalVariableExpression(var: !29, expr: !DIExpression())
!31 = distinct !DIGlobalVariable(scope: !20, name: "j", file: !3, type: !28)
!32 = !DIExpression(DW_OP_plus_uconst, 4)
!33 = !DIGlobalVariableExpression(var: !31, expr: !32)
The DWARF generated for this is as follows.

This updates the C API for the removal of `TerminatorInst`. It converts
the type query to a predicate query and moves the generic methods to
work on `Instruction` instances that satisfy this predicate rather than
requiring a specific type. It also clarifies that the C API wrapping
`BasicBlock::getTerminator` just returns an `Instruction`. Because this
was always wrapped opaquely as a value and the functions consuming these
values will work on `Instruction` objects, this shouldn't break any
clients.
This is a completely compatible change to the C API.

The original was reverted due to an apparent build-bot test failure,
but it looks like this is just a flaky test.
Also added a C-interface function for large values, and updated
llvm-lto's --thinlto-cache-max-size-bytes switch to take a type larger
than int.
The maximum cache size in terms of bytes is a 64-bit number. However,
the methods to set it only took unsigned previously, which meant that
the maximum cache size could not be specified above 4GB. That's quite
small compared to the output of some projects, so it makes sense to
provide the ability to set larger values in that field.
We also needed a C-interface function that provides a greater range
than the existing thinlto_codegen_set_cache_size_bytes, which also only
takes an unsigned, so this change also adds
hinlto_codegen_set_cache_size_megabytes.

This adds the plumbing for the Tiny code model for the AArch64 backend. This,
instead of loading addresses through the normal ADRP;ADD pair used in the Small

its statically defined symbols need to be within 1MB of each other.
This makes it mostly interesting for embedded applications where we want to fit

In the past, DbgInfoIntrinsic has a strong assumption that these

However, it is too strong to derive the class for other debug entities.
Now, it has problems for debug labels.

This new JIT event listener supports generating profiling data for
the linux 'perf' profiling tool, allowing it to generate function and
instruction level profiles.
Currently this functionality is not enabled by default, but must be
enabled with LLVM_USE_PERF=yes. Given that the listener has no
dependencies, it might be sensible to enable by default once the
initial issues have been shaken out.
I followed existing precedent in registering the listener by default
in lli. Should there be a decision to enable this by default on linux,
that should probably be changed.
Please note that until https://reviews.llvm.org/D47343 is resolved,
using this functionality with mcjit rather than orcjit will not
reliably work.

Summary:
This flag is used when emitting debug info and is needed to initialize subprogram and member function attributes (function options) for Codeview. These function options are used to create an accurate compiler type for UDT symbols (class/struct/union) from PDBs.
It is not easy to determine if a C++ record is trivial or not based on the current DICompositeType flags and other accessible debug information from Codeview. For example, without this flag the metadata for a non-trivial C++ record with user-defined ctor and a trivial one with a defaulted ctor are the same.
struct S { S(); }
struct S { S() = default; }
This change introduces a new DI flag and corresponding clang::CXXRecordDecl::isTrivial method to set the flag in the frontend.

The basic idea is that we take an outer loop of the form:

for j..
SubLoopBlocks(i, j)
AftBlocks(i)
Instead of doing normal inner or outer unrolling, we unroll as follows:

So we have unrolled the outer loop, then jammed the two inner loops into
one. This can lead to a simpler inner loop if memory accesses can be shared
between the now jammed loops.
To do this we have to prove that this is all safe, both for the memory
accesses (using dependence analysis) and that ForeBlocks(i+1) can move before
AftBlocks(i) and SubLoopBlocks(i, j).

This is another case where probably inverting the llvm-c implementation
might be best (rather than core llvm libraries implementing the parts of
