We currently do not touch a symbol's linkage in the case where a definition
has a single copy. However, this code is effectively unnecessary: either
the definition is not exported, in which case the internalize phase sets
its linkage to internal, or it is exported, in which case we need to promote
linkage to weak. Those two cases are already handled by existing code.
I believe that the only real functional change here is in the case where we
have a single definition which does not prevail (e.g. because the definition
in a native object file prevails). In that case we now lower linkage to
available_externally following the existing code path for that case.
As a result we can remove the isExported function parameter from the
thinLTOResolveWeakForLinkerInIndex function.

This check is not only unnecessary, it can produce the wrong result. If we
are linking a single module and it has an exported linkonce symbol, we need
to promote to weak in order to avoid PR19901-style problems.

This tests the effect of both promotion and internalization on a module,
and helps show that D21883 is NFC wrt promotion+internalization.

llvm-svn: 269798
Summary:
Add support to control where files for a distributed backend (the
individual index files and optional imports files) are created.
This is invoked with a new thinlto-prefix-replace option in the gold
plugin and llvm-lto. If specified, expects a string of the form
"oldprefix:newprefix", and instead of generating these files in the
same directory path as the corresponding bitcode file, will use a path
formed by replacing the bitcode file's path prefix matching oldprefix
with newprefix.
Also add a new replace_path_prefix helper to Path.h in libSupport.
Depends on D19636.

This moves the code that handles stripping debug info intrinsic from
StripDebugInfo(Module) to StripDebugInfo(Function). The latter is
already walking every instructions so it makes sense to do it at the
same time.
This makes also stripDebugInfo(Function) as an API more useful: it
is really dropping every debug info in the Function.
Finally the existing code is trigerring an assertion when the Module
is not fully materialized.

Summary:
When launching ThinLTO backends in a distributed build (currently
supported in gold via the thinlto-index-only plugin option), emit
an individual index file for each backend process as described here:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2016-April/098272.html
The individual index file encodes the summary and module information
required for implementing the importing/exporting decisions made
for a given module in the thin link step.
This is in place of the current mechanism that uses the combined index
to make importing decisions in each back end independently. It is an
enabler for doing global summary based optimizations in the thin link
step (which will be recorded in the individual index files), and reduces
the size of the index that must be sent to each backend process, and
the amount of work to scan it in the backends.
Rather than create entirely new ModuleSummaryIndex structures (and all
the included unique_ptrs) for each backend index file, a map is created
to record all of the GUID and summary pointers needed for a particular
index file. The IndexBitcodeWriter walks this map instead of the full
index (hiding the details of managing the appropriate summary iteration
in a new iterator subclass). This is more efficient than walking the
entire combined index and filtering out just the needed summaries during
each backend bitcode index write.
Depends on D19481.

There is not point in importing a "weak" or a "linkonce" function
since we won't be able to inline it anyway.
We already had a targeted check for WeakAny, this is using the
same check on GlobalValue as the inline, i.e.
isMayBeOverriddenLinkage()

Keeping as much as possible internal/private is

These function can be dropped by the compiler if they are no longer
referenced in the current module. However there is a change that
another module is still referencing them because of the import.
Multiple solutions can be used:
- Always import LinkOnce when a caller is imported. This ensure that
every module with a call to a LinkOnce has the definition and will
be able to emit it if it emits the call.
- Turn the LinkOnce into Weak, so that it is always emitted.
- Turn all LinkOnce into available_externally and come back after all
modules are codegen'ed to emit only one copy of the linkonce, when
there is still a reference to it.
This patch implement the second option, with am optimization that
only *one* module will turn the LinkOnce into Weak, while the others
will turn it into available_externally, so that there is exactly one
copy emitted for the whole compilation.

FunctionIndex* data structures to ModuleIndex*, and renamed related

A companion clang patch will immediately succeed this patch to reflect
