Summary:
This is a follow up for D70548.
Currently, variables with debug info coverage between 0% and 1% are put into
zero-bucket. D70548 changed the way statistics calculate a variable's coverage:
we began to use enclosing scope rather than a possible variable life range.
Thus more variables might be moved to zero-bucket despite they have some debug
info coverage.
The patch is to distinguish between a variable that has location info but
it's significantly less than its enclosing scope and a variable that doesn't
have it at all.

Currently dwarfdump uses the ArchType to filter out architectures, which
is problematic for architectures like arm64e and x86_64h that map back
to arm64 and x86_64 respectively. The result is that the filter doesn't
work for these architectures because it matches all the variants. This
is especially bad because usually these architectures are the reason to
use the filter in the first place.
Instead, we should match the architecture based on the string name. This
means the filter works for the values printed by dwarfdump. It has the
unfortunate side effect of not working for aliases, like AArch64, but I
think that's worth the trade-off.

Summary:
The patch removes OffsetToFirstDefinition in the 'scope bytes total'
statistic computation. Thus it unifies the way the scope and the coverage
buckets are computed. The rationals behind that are the following:
1. OffsetToFirstDefinition was used to calculate the variable's life range.
However, there is no simple way to do it accurately, so the scope calculated
this way might be misleading. See D69027 for more details on the subject.
2. Both 'scope bytes total' and coverage buckets seem to be intended
to represent the same data in different ways. Otherwise, the statistics
might be controversial and confusing.
Note that the approach gives up a thorough evaluation of debug information
completeness (i.e. coverage buckets by themselves doesn't tell how good
the debug information is). Only changes in coverage over time make
a 'physical' sense.

Summary:
This patch removes manual location list handling in the statistics code
and replaces it with the new DWARFDie api, which provides access to a
"cooked" location list. This has the following effects:
- the code now properly handles split-dwarf location lists
- it will automatically support dwarf5 location lists once support for
those is added
- it properly handles location lists with base address selection entries
- it fixes a bug where the location list code was using the first
DW_AT_ranges range as a "base address" of the compile unit (it should
have used DW_AT_low_pc instead. The effect of this was that the
computation of the start address of a variable in its scope was broken
for these kinds of compile units. This only manifested itself on
linked files, since in object files the first DW_AT_ranges range
normally starts at 0.
Since pretty much every kind of location list was broken in some way,
it's hard to verify that the new implementation is correct -- the output
will be different in all non-trivial cases, and mostly with good reason.
Most of the existing statistics tests continue to pass though, and a
visual inspection of the statistics for non-trivial inputs shows that
the data is more "reasonable" now. I have updated the "dwo statistics"
test to include the new numbers, as the previous ones were completely
bogus, and I have added a targeted test for the "base address" bug.

Summary:
This adds a visitLocationList function to the DWARF v4 location lists,
similar to what already exists for DWARF v5. It follows the approach
outlined in previous patches (D69672), where the parsed form is always
stored in the DWARF v5 format, which makes it easier for generic code to
be built on top of that. v4 location lists are "upgraded" during
parsing, and then this upgrade is undone while dumping.
Both "inline" and section-based dumping is rewritten to reuse the
existing "generic" location list dumper. This means that the output
format is consistent for all location lists (the only thing one needs to
implement is the function which prints the "raw" form of a location
list), and that debug_loc dumping correctly processes base address
selection entries, etc.
The previous existing debug_loc functionality (e.g.,
parseOneLocationList) is rewritten on top of the new API, but it is not
removed as there is still code which uses them. This will be done in
follow-up patches, after I build the API to access the "interpreted"
location lists in a generic way (as that is what those users really
want).

Many LLVM-based tools already support response files (i.e. files

updates the documentation and help text for some of these tools to

I've taken the opportunity to add some tests for --help behaviour, where
they were missing. We could expand these tests, but I don't think that's

--help and -h are automatically supported by the command-line parser,
unless overridden by the tool. The behaviour of the PrintHelpMessage
being used for -h prior to this patch is subtly different to that
provided by --help automatically (it omits certain elements of help text
and options, such as --help-list), so overriding the default is not
desirable, without good reason. This patch removes the explicit
specification of -h and its behaviour, so that the default behaviour is
used.

That patch is the fix for https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40703
"wrong line number info for obj file compiled with -ffunction-sections"
bug. The problem happened with only .o files. If object file contains
several .text sections then line number information showed incorrectly.
The reason for this is that DwarfLineTable could not detect section which
corresponds to specified address(because address is the local to the
section). And as the result it could not select proper sequence in the
line table. The fix is to pass SectionIndex with the address. So that it
would be possible to differentiate addresses from various sections. With
this fix llvm-objdump shows correct line numbers for disassembled code.

We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and

DWARF v5 introduces DW_AT_call_all_calls, a subprogram attribute which
indicates that all calls (both regular and tail) within the subprogram
have call site entries. The information within these call site entries
can be used by a debugger to populate backtraces with synthetic tail
call frames.
Tail calling frames go missing in backtraces because the frame of the
caller is reused by the callee. Call site entries allow a debugger to
reconstruct a sequence of (tail) calls which led from one function to
another. This improves backtrace quality. There are limitations: tail
recursion isn't handled, variables within synthetic frames may not
survive to be inspected, etc. This approach is not novel, see:
https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/summit2010?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=jelinek.pdf
This patch adds an IR-level flag (DIFlagAllCallsDescribed) which lowers
to DW_AT_call_all_calls. It adds the minimal amount of DWARF generation
support needed to emit standards-compliant call site entries. For easier
deployment, when the debugger tuning is LLDB, the DWARF requirement is
adjusted to v4.
Testing: Apart from check-{llvm, clang}, I built a stage2 RelWithDebInfo
clang binary. Its dSYM passed verification and grew by 1.4% compared to
the baseline. 151,879 call site entries were added.
