The KCFI sanitizer, enabled with `-fsanitize=kcfi`, implements a
forward-edge control flow integrity scheme for indirect calls. It
uses a !kcfi_type metadata node to attach a type identifier for each
function and injects verification code before indirect calls.
Unlike the current CFI schemes implemented in LLVM, KCFI does not
require LTO, does not alter function references to point to a jump
table, and never breaks function address equality. KCFI is intended
to be used in low-level code, such as operating system kernels,
where the existing schemes can cause undue complications because
of the aforementioned properties. However, unlike the existing
schemes, KCFI is limited to validating only function pointers and is
not compatible with executable-only memory.
KCFI does not provide runtime support, but always traps when a
type mismatch is encountered. Users of the scheme are expected
to handle the trap. With `-fsanitize=kcfi`, Clang emits a `kcfi`
operand bundle to indirect calls, and LLVM lowers this to a
known architecture-specific sequence of instructions for each
callsite to make runtime patching easier for users who require this
functionality.
A KCFI type identifier is a 32-bit constant produced by taking the
lower half of xxHash64 from a C++ mangled typename. If a program
contains indirect calls to assembly functions, they must be
manually annotated with the expected type identifiers to prevent
errors. To make this easier, Clang generates a weak SHN_ABS
`__kcfi_typeid_<function>` symbol for each address-taken function
declaration, which can be used to annotate functions in assembly
as long as at least one C translation unit linked into the program
takes the function address. For example on AArch64, we might have
the following code:
```
.c:
int f(void);
int (*p)(void) = f;
p();
.s:
.4byte __kcfi_typeid_f
.global f
f:
...
```
Note that X86 uses a different preamble format for compatibility
with Linux kernel tooling. See the comments in
`X86AsmPrinter::emitKCFITypeId` for details.
As users of KCFI may need to locate trap locations for binary
validation and error handling, LLVM can additionally emit the
locations of traps to a `.kcfi_traps` section.
Similarly to other sanitizers, KCFI checking can be disabled for a
function with a `no_sanitize("kcfi")` function attribute.

We currently suggest that users not use an else clause after a return
statement in a prior if branch. e.g.,
if (foo)
return 1;
else // Should remove this else clause
return 10;
however, this suggestion is incorrect for a constexpr if statement
because one of the two branches will be a discarded statement and thus
can impact template instantiation behavior. This updates the coding
standard to make it clear that it's okay to have a return after an else
in a constexpr if statement.
I think this is an NFC change to the intent of the rule, which is why
I've not started an RFC for the changes.

This works with the automatic export of all symbols; in MinGW mode,
when a DLL has no explicit dllexports, it exports all symbols (except
for some that are hardcoded to be excluded, including some toolchain
libraries).
By hooking up the hidden visibility to the -exclude-symbols: directive,
the automatic export of all symbols can be controlled in an easier
way (with a mechanism that doesn't require strict annotation of every
single symbol, but which allows gradually marking more unnecessary
symbols as hidden).
The primary use case is dylib builds of LLVM/Clang. These can be done
in MinGW mode but not in MSVC mode, as MinGW builds can export all
symbols (and the calling code can use APIs without corresponding
dllimport directives). However, as all symbols are exported, it can
easily overflow the max number of exported symbols in a DLL (65536).
In the llvm-mingw distribution, only the X86, ARM and AArch64 backends
are enabled; for the LLVM 13.0.0 release, libLLVM-13.dll ended up with
58112 exported symbols. For LLVM 14.0.0, it was 62015 symbols. Current
builds of the 15.x branch end up at around 64650 symbols - i.e. extremely
close to the limit.
The msys2 packages of LLVM have had to progressively disable more
of their backends in their builds, to be able to keep building with a
dylib.
This allows improving the current mingw dylib situation significantly,
by using the same hidden visibility options and attributes as on Unix.
With those in place, a current build of LLVM git main ends up at 35142
symbols instead of 64650.
For code using hidden visibility, this now requires linking with either
a current git lld or ld.bfd. (Older lld error out on the unknown
directives, older ld.bfd will successfully link, but will print huge
amounts of warnings.)

This adds a +forced-atomics target feature with the same semantics
as +atomics-32 on ARM (D130480). For RISCV targets without the +a
extension, this forces LLVM to assume that lock-free atomics
(up to 32/64 bits for riscv32/64 respectively) are available.
This means that atomic load/store are lowered to a simple load/store
(and fence as necessary), as these are guaranteed to be atomic
(as long as they're aligned). Atomic RMW/CAS are lowered to __sync
(rather than __atomic) libcalls. Responsibility for providing the
__sync libcalls lies with the user (for privileged single-core code
they can be implemented by disabling interrupts). Code using
+forced-atomics and -forced-atomics are not ABI compatible if atomic
variables cross the ABI boundary.
For context, the difference between __sync and __atomic is that the
former are required to be lock-free, while the latter requires a
shared global lock provided by a shared object library. See
https://llvm.org/docs/Atomics.html#libcalls-atomic for a detailed
discussion on the topic.
This target feature will be used by Rust's riscv32i target family
to support the use of atomic load/store without atomic RMW/CAS.

**Motivation: ** I have been studying LLVM with LLVM Kaleidoscope tutorial. In the 4th part I faced an error which said that I can't redefine a function as shown in the tutorial. After hours of searching, I finally found the reason that produced the error is that the feature of symbols redefinition has been disabled since LLVM-9. There was no information about that in the tutorial's text, so I've decided to add a warning.
**Changes**: The only file I fixed is "`llvm/docs/tutorial/MyFirstLanguageFrontend/LangImpl04.rst`", I added text warning which says that described feature is outdated and the described functionality will not work properly on LLVM versions older 8 one.

Improve the cycle definition, by avoiding usage of not yet defined

More precisely, the existing definition defined "outermost cycles",
and then proceeded to use the term "cycles" for further definitions,
which in turn were used to actually define "cycles".
Now, instead only define "cycles". This does not change the meaning
of a cycle, which depends on the chosen surrounding (subgraph) of a CFG.
Also mention the function CFG in the first definition, because later
later definitions require it anyways.

This teaches ProcessElfCore to recognise the MTE tag segments.
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/arm64/memory-tagging-extension.html#core-dump-support
These segments contain all the tags for a matching memory segment
which will have the same size in virtual address terms. In real terms
it's 2 tags per byte so the data in the segment is much smaller.
Since MTE is the only tag type supported I have hardcoded some
things to those values. We could and should support more formats
as they appear but doing so now would leave code untested until that
happens.
A few things to note:
* /proc/pid/smaps is not in the core file, only the details you have
in "maps". Meaning we mark a region tagged only if it has a tag segment.
* A core file supports memory tagging if it has at least 1 memory
tag segment, there is no other flag we can check to tell if memory
tagging was enabled. (unlike a live process that can support memory
tagging even if there are currently no tagged memory regions)
Tests have been added at the commands level for a core file with
mte and without.
There is a lot of overlap between the "memory tag read" tests here and the unit tests for
MemoryTagManagerAArch64MTE::UnpackTagsFromCoreFileSegment, but I think it's
worth keeping to check ProcessElfCore doesn't cause an assert.
