On MachO, putting a symbol that doesn't start with a 'L' or 'l' in one of the
__TEXT,__literal* sections prevents the linker from merging the context of the
section.
Since private GVs are the ones the get mangled to start with 'L' or 'l', we now
only put those on the __TEXT,__literal* sections.

make the functions to set them non-static.
Move and rename the llvm specific backend options to avoid conflicting
with the clang option.
Paired with a backend commit to update.

This is a pretty straight forward translation for COFF, we just need to
stick the data in a COMDAT section marked as
IMAGE_COMDAT_SELECT_NODUPLICATES.
N.B. We must be careful to avoid sticking entities with private linkage
in COMDAT groups. COFF is pretty hostile to the renaming of entities so
we must be careful to disallow GlobalVariables with unstable names.

r201608 made llvm corretly handle private globals with MachO. r201622 fixed
a bug in it and r201624 and r201625 were changes for using private linkage,
assuming that llvm would do the right thing.
They all got reverted because r201608 introduced a crash in LTO. This patch
includes a fix for that. The issue was that TargetLoweringObjectFile now has
to be initialized before we can mangle names of private globals. This is
trivially true during the normal codegen pipeline (the asm printer does it),
but LTO has to do it manually.
llvm-svn: 201700
When outputting an object we check its section to find its name, but when
looking for the section with -ffunction-section we look for the symbol name.
Break the loop by requesting a name with the private prefix when constructing
the section name. This matches the behavior before r201608.

Accepting quotes is a property of an assembler, not of an object file. For
example, ELF can support any names for sections and symbols, but the gnu
assembler only accepts quotes in some contexts and llvm-mc in a few more.
LLVM should not produce different symbols based on a guess about which assembler
will be reading the code it is printing.

Original commit message:
Stop emitting weak symbols into the "coal" sections.
The Mach-O linker has been able to support the weak-def bit on any symbol for
quite a while now. The compiler however continued to place these symbols into a
"coal" section, which required the linker to map them back to the base section
name.
Replace the sections like this:
__TEXT/__textcoal_nt instead use __TEXT/__text
__TEXT/__const_coal instead use __TEXT/__const
__DATA/__datacoal_nt instead use __DATA/__data

This patch broke `make check-asan` on Mac, causing ld warnings like the following one:
ld: warning: direct access in __GLOBAL__I_a to global weak symbol
___asan_mapping_scale means the weak symbol cannot be overridden at
runtime. This was likely caused by different translation units being
compiled with different visibility settings.
The resulting test binaries crashed with incorrect ASan warnings.

1) nuke ConstDataCoalSection, which is dead.
2) revise my previous patch for rdar://8018335,
which was completely wrong. Specifically, it doesn't
make sense to mark __TEXT,__const_coal as PURE_INSTRUCTIONS,
because it is for readonly data. templates (it turns out)
go to const_coal_nt. The real fix for rdar://8018335 was
to give ConstTextCoalSection a section kind of ReadOnly
instead of Text.

to keep "Text" in sync with the "pure instructions" section attribute.
Lack of this attribute was preventing the assembler from emitting
multibyte noops instructions for templates (and inlines, and other
coalesced stuff) and was causing the assembler to mismatch .o files.
This fixes rdar://8018335

is a workaround for <rdar://problem/7672401/> (which I filed).
This let's us build Wine on Darwin, and it gets the Qt build there a little bit
further (so Doug says).

GCC would put weak zero initialized mutable data in the .bss section,
we would put it into a crasy '.gnu.linkonce.b.test,"aw",@nobits'
section. Fixing this will allow simplifications next up.

instead of syntactically as a string. This means that it keeps track of the
segment, section, flags, etc directly and asmprints them in the right format.
This also includes parsing and validation support for llvm-mc and
"attribute(section)", so we should now start getting errors about invalid
section attributes from the compiler instead of the assembler on darwin.
Still todo:
1) Uniquing of darwin mcsections
2) Move all the Darwin stuff out to MCSectionMachO.[cpp|h]
3) there are a few FIXMEs, for example what is the syntax to get the
S_GB_ZEROFILL segment type?

into the mergable section if it is one of our special cases. This could
obviously be improved, but this is the minimal fix and restores us to the
previous behavior.
llvm-svn: 77679
and make it more aggressive, we now put:
const int G2 __attribute__((weak)) = 42;
into the text (readonly) segment like gcc, previously we put
it into the data (readwrite) segment.
