COFF lacks a feature that other object file formats support: mergeable
sections.
To work around this, MSVC sticks constant pool entries in special COMDAT
sections so that each constant is in it's own section. This permits
unused constants to be dropped and it also allows duplicate constants in
different translation units to get merged together.
This fixes PR20262.

TargetLoweringBase is implemented in CodeGen, so before this patch we had
a dependency fom Target to CodeGen. This would show up as a link failure of
llvm-stress when building with -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON.
This fixes pr18900.

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
The IR
@foo = private constant i32 42
is valid, but before this patch we would produce an invalid MachO from it. It
was invalid because it would use an L label in a section where the liker needs
the labels in order to atomize it.
One way of fixing it would be to just reject this IR in the backend, but that
would not be very front end friendly.
What this patch does is use an 'l' prefix in sections that we know the linker
requires symbols for atomizing them. This allows frontends to just use
private and not worry about which sections they go to or how the linker handles
them.
One small issue with this strategy is that now a symbol name depends on the
section, which is not available before codegen. This is not a problem in
practice. The reason is that it only happens with private linkage, which will
be ignored by the non codegen users (llvm-nm and llvm-ar).
llvm-svn: 201608
These methods normally call each other and it is really annoying if the
arguments are in different order. The more common rule was that the arguments
specific to call are first (GV, Encoding, Suffix) and the auxiliary objects
(Mang, TM) come after. This patch changes the exceptions.

code to see if we're emitting a function into a non-default
text section. This is still a less-than-ideal solution, but more
contained than r199871 to determine whether or not we're emitting
code into an array of comdat sections.

e.g. linkonce, to TargetMachine and set it when we've done so
for ELF targets currently. This involved making TargetMachine
non-const in a TLOF use and propagating that change around - I'm
open to other ideas.
This will be used in a future commit to handle emitting debug
information with ranges.
llvm-svn: 199871
With the gnu objc runtime private strings are used. Since we only need to
produce a unique label, the fix is to just drop the asserts.
llvm-svn: 198701
Before this patch any program that wanted to know the final symbol name of a
GlobalValue had to link with Target.
This patch implements a compromise solution where the mangler uses DataLayout.
This way, any tool that already links with Target (llc, clang) gets the exact
behavior as before and new IR files can be mangled without linking with Target.
With this patch the mangler is constructed with just a DataLayout and DataLayout
is extended to include the information the Mangler needs.
llvm-svn: 198438
getSymbolWithGlobalValueBase use is to create a name of a new symbol based
on the name of an existing GV. Assert that and then remove the last call
to pass true to isImplicitlyPrivate.
This gives the mangler API a 1:1 mapping from GV to names, which is what we
need to drop the mangler dependency on the target (and use an extended
datalayout instead).
llvm-svn: 196472
This allows getDebugThreadLocalSymbol to return a generic MCExpr
instead of just a MCSymbolRefExpr.
This is in preparation for supporting debug info for TLS variables
on PowerPC, where we need to describe the variable location using
a more complex expression than just MCSymbolRefExpr.
llvm-svn: 185460
Based on GCC's output for TLS variables (OP_constNu, x@dtpoff,
OP_lo_user), this implements debug info support for TLS in ELF. Verified
that this output is correct/sufficient on Linux (using gold - if you're
using binutils-ld, you'll need something with the fix for
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15685 in it).
Support on non-ELF is sort of "arbitrary" at the moment - if Apple folks
want to discuss (or just go ahead & implement) how this should work in
MachO, etc, I'm open.

into their new header subdirectory: include/llvm/IR. This matches the
directory structure of lib, and begins to correct a long standing point
of file layout clutter in LLVM.
There are still more header files to move here, but I wanted to handle
them in separate commits to make tracking what files make sense at each
layer easier.
The only really questionable files here are the target intrinsic
tablegen files. But that's a battle I'd rather not fight today.
I've updated both CMake and Makefile build systems (I think, and my
tests think, but I may have missed something).
I've also re-sorted the includes throughout the project. I'll be
committing updates to Clang, DragonEgg, and Polly momentarily.

Sooooo many of these had incorrect or strange main module includes.
I have manually inspected all of these, and fixed the main module
include to be the nearest plausible thing I could find. If you own or
care about any of these source files, I encourage you to take some time
and check that these edits were sensible. I can't have broken anything
(I strictly added headers, and reordered them, never removed), but they
may not be the headers you'd really like to identify as containing the
API being implemented.
Many forward declarations and missing includes were added to a header
files to allow them to parse cleanly when included first. The main
module rule does in fact have its merits. =]

of several newly un-defaulted switches. This also helps optimizers
(including LLVM's) recognize that every case is covered, and we should
assume as much.

change, now you need a TargetOptions object to create a TargetMachine. Clang
patch to follow.
One small functionality change in PTX. PTX had commented out the machine
verifier parts in their copy of printAndVerify. That now calls the version in
LLVMTargetMachine. Users of PTX who need verification disabled should rely on
not passing the command-line flag to enable it.

If the linker supports it, this will hold the CIE and FDE information in a
compact format. The implementation of the compact unwinding emission is coming
soon.

give it a bit more responsibility. Also implement it for MachO.
If hacked to use cfi, 32 bit MachO will produce
.cfi_personality 155, L___gxx_personality_v0$non_lazy_ptr
and 64 bit will produce
.cfi_presonality ___gxx_personality_v0
The general idea is that .cfi_personality gets passed the final symbol. It is
up to codegen to produce it if using indirect representation (like 32 bit
MachO), but it is up to MC to decide which relocations to create.
