We use both -long-option and --long-option in tests. Switch to --long-option for consistency.
In the "llvm-readelf" mode, -long-option is discouraged as it conflicts with grouped short options and it is not accepted by GNU readelf.
While updating the tests, change llvm-readobj -s to llvm-readobj -S to reduce confusion ("s" is --section-headers in llvm-readobj but --symbols in llvm-readelf).

In PDBs, symbol records must be aligned to four bytes. However, in the
object file, symbol records may not be aligned. MSVC does not pad out
symbol records to make sure they are aligned. That means the linker has
to do extra work to insert the padding. Currently, LLD calculates the
required space with alignment, and copies each record one at a time
while padding them out to the correct size. It has a fast path that
avoids this copy when the records are already aligned.
This change fixes a bug in that codepath so that the copy is actually
saved, and tweaks LLVM's symbol record emission to align symbol records.
Here's how things compare when doing a plain clang Release+PDB build:
- objs are 0.65% bigger (negligible)
- link is 3.3% faster (negligible)
- saves allocating 441MB
- new LLD high water mark is ~1.05GB

In order to set breakpoints on labels and list source code around
labels, we need collect debug information for labels, i.e., label
name, the function label belong, line number in the file, and the
address label located. In order to keep these information in LLVM
IR and to allow backend to generate debug information correctly.
We create a new kind of metadata for labels, DILabel. The format
of DILabel is
!DILabel(scope: !1, name: "foo", file: !2, line: 3)
We hope to keep debug information as much as possible even the
code is optimized. So, we create a new kind of intrinsic for label
metadata to avoid the metadata is eliminated with basic block.
The intrinsic will keep existing if we keep it from optimized out.
The format of the intrinsic is
llvm.dbg.label(metadata !1)
It has only one argument, that is the DILabel metadata. The
intrinsic will follow the label immediately. Backend could get the
label metadata through the intrinsic's parameter.
We also create DIBuilder API for labels to be used by Frontend.
Frontend could use createLabel() to allocate DILabel objects, and use
insertLabel() to insert llvm.dbg.label intrinsic in LLVM IR.

S_UDT records are basically the "bridge" between the debugger's
expression evaluator and the type information. If you type
(Foo*)nullptr into the watch window, the debugger looks for an
S_UDT record named Foo. If it can find one, it displays your type.
Otherwise you get an error.
We have always understood this to mean that if you have code like
this:
struct A {
int X;
};
struct B {
typedef A AT;
AT Member;
};
that you will get 3 S_UDT records. "A", "B", and "B::AT". Because
if you were to type (B::AT*)nullptr into the debugger, it would
need to find an S_UDT record named "B::AT".
But "B::AT" is actually the S_UDT record that would be generated
if B were a namespace, not a struct. So the debugger needs to be
able to distinguish this case. So what it does is:
1. Look for an S_UDT named "B::AT". If it finds one, it knows
that AT is in a namespace.
2. If it doesn't find one, split at the scope resolution operator,
and look for an S_UDT named B. If it finds one, look up the type
for B, and then look for AT as one of its members.
With this algorithm, S_UDT records for nested typedefs are not just
unnecessary, but actually wrong!
The results of implementing this in clang are dramatic. It cuts
our /DEBUG:FASTLINK PDB sizes by more than 50%, and we go from
being ~20% larger than MSVC PDBs on average, to ~40% smaller.
It also slightly speeds up link time. We get about 10% faster
links than without this patch.

We have llvm-readobj for dumping CodeView from object files, and
llvm-pdbutil has always been more focused on PDB. However,
llvm-pdbutil has a lot of useful options for summarizing debug
information in aggregate and presenting high level statistical
views. Furthermore, it's arguably better as a testing tool since
we don't have to write tests to conform to a state-machine like
structure where you match multiple lines in succession, each
depending on a previous match. llvm-pdbutil dumps much more
concisely, so it's possible to use single-line matches in many
cases where as with readobj tests you have to use multi-line
matches with an implicit state machine.
Because of this, I'm adding object file support to llvm-pdbutil.
In fact, this mirrors the cvdump tool from Microsoft, which also
supports both object files and pdb files. In the future we could
perhaps rename this tool llvm-cvutil.
In the meantime, this allows us to deep dive into object files
the same way we already can with PDB files.

This change simplifies code that has to deal with
DIGlobalVariableExpression and mirrors how we treat DIExpressions in
debug info intrinsics. Before this change there were two ways of
representing empty expressions on globals, a nullptr and an empty
!DIExpression().
If someone needs to upgrade out-of-tree testcases:
perl -pi -e 's/(!DIGlobalVariableExpression\(var: ![0-9]*)\)/\1, expr: !DIExpression())/g' <MYTEST.ll>
will catch 95%.

Avoid duplicating DictScope with hand-written names everywhere. Print
the S_-prefixed symbol kind for every record. This should make it easier
to search for certain kinds of records when debugging PDB linking.

This patch renumbers the metadata nodes in debug info testcases after
https://reviews.llvm.org/D26769. This is a separate patch because it
causes so much churn. This was implemented with a python script that
pipes the testcases through llvm-as - | llvm-dis - and then goes
through the original and new output side-by side to insert all
comments at a close-enough location.

This patch implements PR31013 by introducing a
DIGlobalVariableExpression that holds a pair of DIGlobalVariable and
DIExpression.
Currently, DIGlobalVariables holds a DIExpression. This is not the
best way to model this:
(1) The DIGlobalVariable should describe the source level variable,
not how to get to its location.
(2) It makes it unsafe/hard to update the expressions when we call
replaceExpression on the DIGLobalVariable.
(3) It makes it impossible to represent a global variable that is in
more than one location (e.g., a variable with multiple
DW_OP_LLVM_fragment-s). We also moved away from attaching the
DIExpression to DILocalVariable for the same reasons.
This reapplies r289902 with additional testcase upgrades and a change
to the Bitcode record for DIGlobalVariable, that makes upgrading the
old format unambiguous also for variables without DIExpressions.

This reverts commit 289920 (again).
I forgot to implement a Bitcode upgrade for the case where a DIGlobalVariable
has not DIExpression. Unfortunately it is not possible to safely upgrade
these variables without adding a flag to the bitcode record indicating which
version they are.
My plan of record is to roll the planned follow-up patch that adds a
unit: field to DIGlobalVariable into this patch before recomitting.
This way we only need one Bitcode upgrade for both changes (with a
version flag in the bitcode record to safely distinguish the record
formats).
Sorry for the churn!
