N_FUNC_COLD is a new MachO symbol attribute. It's a hint to the linker
to order a symbol towards the end of its section, to improve locality.
Example:
```
void a1() {}
__attribute__((cold)) void a2() {}
void a3() {}
int main() {
a1();
a2();
a3();
return 0;
}
```
A linker that supports N_FUNC_COLD will order _a2 to the end of the text
section. From `nm -njU` output, we see:
```
_a1
_a3
_main
_a2
```

We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and

Summary:
It does so using a simple nesting stack, and gives clear errors upon
violation. This is unique to wasm, since most CPUs do not have
any nested constructs.
Had to add an end of file check to the general assembler for this.
Note: if/else/end instructions are not currently supported in our
tablegen defs, so these tests will be enabled in a follow-up.
They already pass the nesting check.

Summary:
The "single parameter" .file directive appears to be an ELF-only feature
that is intended to insert the main source filename into the string
table table.
I noticed that if you assemble an ELF .s file for COFF, typically it
will assert right away on a .file directive near the top of the file. My
first change was to make this emit a proper error in the asm parser so
that we don't assert so easily.
However, COFF actually does have some support for this directive, and if
you emit an object file, llvm-mc does not assert. When emitting a COFF
object, MC will take those file names and create "debug" symbol table
entries for them. I'm not familiar with these kinds of symbol table
entries, and I'm not aware of any users of them, but @compnerd added
them a while ago. They don't introduce absolute paths, and most main
source file paths are short enough that this extra entry shouldn't cause
any problems, so I enabled the flag in MCAsmInfoCOFF that indicates that
it's supported.
This has the side effect of adding an extra debug symbol to every object
produced by clang, which is a pretty big functional change. My question
is, should we keep the functionality or remove it in the name of symbol
table minimalism?

- When signing return addresses with -msign-return-address=<scope>{+<key>},
either the A key instructions or the B key instructions can be used. To
correctly authenticate the return address, the unwinder/debugger must know
which key was used to sign the return address.
- When and exception is thrown or a break point reached, it may be necessary to
unwind the stack. To accomplish this, the unwinder/debugger must be able to
first authenticate an the return address if it has been signed.
- To enable this, the augmentation string of CIEs has been extended to allow
inclusion of a 'B' character. Functions that are signed using the B key
variant of the instructions should have and FDE whose associated CIE has a 'B'
in the augmentation string.
- One must also be able to preserve these semantics when first stepping from a
high level language into assembly and then, as a second step, into an object
file. To achieve this, I have introduced a new assembly directive
'.cfi_b_key_frame ', that tells the assembler the current frame uses return
address signing with the B key.
- This ensures that the FDE is associated with a CIE that has 'B' in the
augmentation string.

If offset is a forward declared label, MCObjectStreamer keeps the fixup locally

Summary:
This is to replace the ELFAsmParser that WebAssembly was using, which
so far was a stub that didn't do anything, and couldn't work correctly
with wasm.
This new class is there to implement generic directives related to
wasm as a binary format. Wasm target specific directives are still
parsed in WebAssemblyAsmParser as before. The two classes now
cooperate more correctly too.
Also implemented .result which was missing. Any unknown directives
will now result in errors.

Summary:
This renames the IsParsingMSInlineAsm member variable of AsmLexer to
LexMasmIntegers and moves it up to MCAsmLexer. This is the only behavior
controlled by that variable. I added a public setter, so that it can be
set from outside or from the llvm-mc command line. We may need to
arrange things so that users can get this behavior from clang, but
that's future work.
I also put additional hex literal lexing functionality under this flag
to fix PR32973. It appears that this hex literal parsing wasn't intended
to be enabled in non-masm-style blocks.
Now, masm integers (0b1101 and 0ABCh) work in __asm blocks from clang,
but 0b label references work when using .intel_syntax in standalone .s
files.
However, 0b label references will *not* work from __asm blocks in clang.
They will work from GCC inline asm blocks, which it sounds like is
important for Crypto++ as mentioned in PR36144.
Essentially, we only lex masm literals for inline asm blobs that use
intel syntax. If the .intel_syntax directive is used inside a gnu-style
inline asm statement, masm literals will not be lexed, which is
compatible with gas and llvm-mc standalone .s assembly.
This fixes PR36144 and PR32973.

This avoids a crash (with asserts) or bad codegen (without asserts)
in Dwarf streamer later on. This patch fixes this condition in
MCStreamer and propogates SMLoc down when it's available with an
added bonus of source locations for those specific types of errors.
Further patches could use similar improvements as currently most

Modified an existing test to verify source location propogation and
added an object-file version of it to verify that it does not crash in
addition to a standalone test to only ensure it does not crash.

On targets like Arm some relaxations may only be performed when certain
architectural features are available. As functions can be compiled with
differing levels of architectural support we must make a judgement on
whether we can relax based on the MCSubtargetInfo for the function. This
change passes through the MCSubtargetInfo for the function to
fixupNeedsRelaxation so that the decision on whether to relax can be made
per function. In this patch, only the ARM backend makes use of this
information. We must also pass the MCSubtargetInfo to applyFixup because
some fixups skip error checking on the assumption that relaxation has
occurred, to prevent code-generation errors applyFixup must see the same
MCSubtargetInfo as fixupNeedsRelaxation.

Teach AsmParser to check with Assembler for when evaluating constant
expressions. This improves the handing of preprocessor expressions
that must be resolved at parse time. This idiom can be found as
assembling-time assertion checks in source-level assemblers. Note that
this relies on the MCStreamer to keep sufficient tabs on Section /
Fragment information which the MCAsmStreamer does not. As a result the
textual output may fail where the equivalent object generation would
pass. This can most easily be resolved by folding the MCAsmStreamer
and MCObjectStreamer together which is planned for in a separate
patch.
Currently, this feature is only enabled for assembly input, keeping IR
compilation consistent between assembly and object generation.

Summary:
The LLVM SourceMgr class (which is used indirectly by Swift, though not Clang)
has a routine for looking up line numbers of SMLocs. This routine uses a
shared, special-purpose cache that handles exactly one access pattern
efficiently: looking up the line number of an SMLoc that points into the same
buffer as the last query made to the SourceMgr, at a location in the buffer at
or ahead of the last query.
When this works it's fine, but when it fails it's catastrophic for performancer:
one recent out-of-order access from a Swift utility routine ran for tens of
seconds, spending 99% of its time repeatedly scanning buffers for '\n'.
This change removes the shared cache from the SourceMgr and installs a new
cache in each SrcBuffer. The per-SrcBuffer caches are also "full", in the sense
that rather than caching a single last-query pointer, they cache _all_ the
line-ending offsets, in a binary-searchable array, such that once it's
populated (on first access), all subsequent access patterns run at the same
speed.
Performance measurements I've done show this is actually a little bit faster on
real codebases (though only a couple fractions of a percent). Memory usage is
up by a few tens to hundreds of bytes per SrcBuffer that has a line lookup done
on it; I've attempted to minimize this by using dynamic selection of integer
sized when storing offset arrays. But the main motive here is to
make-impossible the cases we don't always see, that show up by surprise when
there is an out-of-order access pattern.
