If .gcda is corrupted, gcov continues to produce a .gcov and just
assumes execution counts are zeros. This is reasonable, because the
program can corrupt its .gcda output. The code path should be similar to
the code path without .gcda.
Between gcov 4.9~8, `gcov -i $file` prints coverage information to
$file.gcov in an intermediate text format (single file, instead of
$source.gcov for each source file).
lcov newer than 2019-05-24 detects -i support and uses it to increase
processing speed. gcov 9 (GCC r265587) removed --intermediate-format
and -i was changed to mean --json-format. However, we consider this
format still useful and support it. geninfo (part of lcov) supports this
format even if we announce that we are compatible with gcov 9.0.0
global-ctor.ll no longer checks what it intended to check
(@_GLOBAL__sub_I_global-ctor.ll needs a !dbg to work).
Rewrite it.
gcov 3.4 and gcov 4.2 use the same format, thus we can lower the version
requirement to 3.4
llvm-cov.test and many Inputs/test* files contain wrong tests.
This patch rewrites a large portion of these files.
The pre-canned .gcno & .gcda are replaced by binaries produced by

gcov 9 (r264462) started to use GCOV_TAG_OBJECT_SUMMARY. Before,
GCOV_TAG_PROGRAM_SUMMARY was used.
libclang_rt.profile should emit just one tag according to the version.
Another bug introduced by rL194499 is that the wrong runcount field was
selected.
Fix the two bugs so that gcov can correctly decode "Runs:" from
libclang_rt.profile produced .gcda files, and llvm-cov gcov can
correctly decode "Runs:" from libgcov produced .gcda files.
gcov by default prints to a .gcov file. With --stdout, stdout is used.
Some summary information is omitted. There is no separator for multiple
source files.
GCDAProfiling.c unnecessarily writes function names to .gcda files.
GCC 4.2 gcc/libgcov.c (now renamed to libgcc/libgcov*) did not write function
names. gcov-7 (compatible) crashes on .gcda produced by libclang_rt.profile
rL176173 realized the problem and introduced a mode to remove function
names.
llvm-cov code apparently takes GCDAProfiling.c output format as truth
and tries to decode function names. Additionally, llvm-cov tries to
decode tags in certain order which does not match libgcov emitted .gcda
files.
This patch fixes the .gcda decoder and makes it work with GCC 8 and 9
(10 is compatible with 9). Note, line statistics are broken and not
fixed by this patch.
Add test/tools/llvm-cov/gcov-{4.7,8,9}.c to test compatibility.

The common profile usage is to collect profile from a target and then use the profile to guide the optimized build for the same target. There are some cases that no profile can be collected for a target. In those cases, although no full profile is available, it is possible to have some partial profile collected from other targets to optimize common libraries and utilities. A flag is needed to tell the partial profile from the full profile apart, so compiler can use different strategy for them.

Compbinary format uses MD5 to represent strings in name table. That gives smaller profile without the need of compression/decompression when writing/reading the profile. The patch adds the support in extbinary format. It is off by default but user can choose to enable it.
Note the feature of using MD5 in name table can bring very small chance of name conflict leading to profile mismatch. Besides, profile using the feature won't have the profile remapping support.

After the format change from D69471, there can be more than one section
in an object that contains coverage function records. Look up each of
these sections and concatenate all the records together.
This re-enables the instrprof-merging.cpp test, which previously was
failing on OSes which use comdats.

Revise the coverage mapping format to reduce binary size by:
1. Naming function records and marking them `linkonce_odr`, and
2. Compressing filenames.
This shrinks the size of llc's coverage segment by 82% (334MB -> 62MB)
and speeds up end-to-end single-threaded report generation by 10%. For
reference the compressed name data in llc is 81MB (__llvm_prf_names).
Rationale for changes to the format:
- With the current format, most coverage function records are discarded.
E.g., more than 97% of the records in llc are *duplicate* placeholders
for functions visible-but-not-used in TUs. Placeholders *are* used to
show under-covered functions, but duplicate placeholders waste space.
- We reached general consensus about giving (1) a try at the 2017 code
coverage BoF [1]. The thinking was that using `linkonce_odr` to merge
duplicates is simpler than alternatives like teaching build systems
about a coverage-aware database/module/etc on the side.
- Revising the format is expensive due to the backwards compatibility
requirement, so we might as well compress filenames while we're at it.
This shrinks the encoded filenames in llc by 86% (12MB -> 1.6MB).
See CoverageMappingFormat.rst for the details on what exactly has
changed.
Fixes PR34533 [2], hopefully.

Summary:
Most libraries are defined in the lib/ directory but there are also a
few libraries defined in tools/ e.g. libLLVM, libLTO. I'm defining
"Component Libraries" as libraries defined in lib/ that may be included in
libLLVM.so. Explicitly marking the libraries in lib/ as component
libraries allows us to remove some fragile checks that attempt to
differentiate between lib/ libraries and tools/ libraires:
1. In tools/llvm-shlib, because
llvm_map_components_to_libnames(LIB_NAMES "all") returned a list of
all libraries defined in the whole project, there was custom code
needed to filter out libraries defined in tools/, none of which should
be included in libLLVM.so. This code assumed that any library
defined as static was from lib/ and everything else should be
excluded.
With this change, llvm_map_components_to_libnames(LIB_NAMES, "all")
only returns libraries that have been added to the LLVM_COMPONENT_LIBS
global cmake property, so this custom filtering logic can be removed.
Doing this also fixes the build with BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON
and LLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB=ON.
2. There was some code in llvm_add_library that assumed that
libraries defined in lib/ would not have LLVM_LINK_COMPONENTS or
ARG_LINK_COMPONENTS set. This is only true because libraries
defined lib lib/ use LLVMBuild.txt and don't set these values.
This code has been fixed now to check if the library has been
explicitly marked as a component library, which should now make it
easier to remove LLVMBuild at some point in the future.
I have tested this patch on Windows, MacOS and Linux with release builds
and the following combinations of CMake options:
- "" (No options)
- -DLLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB=ON
- -DLLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB=ON
- -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON
- -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON -DLLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB=ON
- -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON -DLLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB=ON

Add support for continuously syncing profile counter updates to a file.
The motivation for this is that programs do not always exit cleanly. On
iOS, for example, programs are usually killed via a signal from the OS.
Running atexit() handlers after catching a signal is unreliable, so some
method for progressively writing out profile data is necessary.
The approach taken here is to mmap() the `__llvm_prf_cnts` section onto
a raw profile. To do this, the linker must page-align the counter and
data sections, and the runtime must ensure that counters are mapped to a
page-aligned offset within a raw profile.
Continuous mode is (for the moment) incompatible with the online merging
mode. This limitation is lifted in https://reviews.llvm.org/D69586.
Continuous mode is also (for the moment) incompatible with value
profiling, as I'm not sure whether there is interest in this and the
implementation may be tricky.
As I have not been able to test extensively on non-Darwin platforms,
only Darwin support is included for the moment. However, continuous mode
may "just work" without modification on Linux and some UNIX-likes. AIUI
the default value for the GNU linker's `--section-alignment` flag is set
to the page size on many systems. This appears to be true for LLD as
well, as its `no_nmagic` option is on by default. Continuous mode will
not "just work" on Fuchsia or Windows, as it's not possible to mmap() a
section on these platforms. There is a proposal to add a layer of
indirection to the profile instrumentation to support these platforms.

by ExtBinary format profile
Profile on-demand loading was added for ExtBinary format profile in rL374233,
but currently profile on-demand loading doesn't work well with profile
remapping. The patch adds the support.
Suppose a function in the current module has outline instance in the profile.
The function name in the module is different from the name of the outline
instance, but remapper knows the two names are equal. When loading profile
on-demand, the outline instance has to be loaded with remapper's help.
At the same time SampleProfileReaderItaniumRemapper is changed from a proxy
of SampleProfileReader to a helper member in SampleProfileReader.

in ExtBinary format
Currently for Text, Binary and ExtBinary format profiles, when we compile a
module with samplefdo, even if there is no function showing up in the profile,
we have to load all the function profiles from the profile input. That is a
waste of compile time.
CompactBinary format profile has already had the support of loading function
profiles on demand. In this patch, we add the support to load profile on
demand for ExtBinary format. It will work no matter the sections in ExtBinary
format profile are compressed or not. Experiment shows it reduces the time to
compile a server benchmark by 30%.
When profile remapping and loading function profiles on demand are both used,
extra work needs to be done so that the loading on demand process will take
the name remapping into consideration. It will be addressed in a follow-up
patch.

Previously ExtBinary profile format only supports compression using zlib for
profile symbol list. In this patch, we extend the compression support to any
section. User can select some or all of the sections to compress. In an
experiment, for a 45M profile in ExtBinary format, compressing name table
reduced its size to 24M, and compressing all the sections reduced its size
to 11M.

Sometimes we want to limit the size of the profile by stripping some functions

Summary:
The PGO counter reading will add cold and inlinehint (hot) attributes
to functions that are very cold or hot. This was using hardcoded
thresholds, instead of the profile summary cutoffs which are used in
other hot/cold detection and are more dynamic and adaptable. Switch
to using the summary-based cold/hot detection.
The hardcoded limits were causing some code that had a medium level of
hotness (per the summary) to be incorrectly marked with a cold
attribute, blocking inlining.

This is the second half of https://reviews.llvm.org/D66374.
Profile symbol list is the collection of function symbols showing up in
