Summary:
Emission of XRay table was occasionally disabled for Arm32, but this bug was not then detected because earlier (also by mistake) testing of XRay was occasionally disabled on 32-bit Arm targets. This patch should fix that problem and detect such problems in the future.

Revert [ARM] Fix ubig32_t read in ARMAttributeParser
Now using support functions to read data instead of trying to
perform casts.
===========================================================
Revert [ARM] Enable objdump to construct triple for ARM
Now that The ARMAttributeParser has been moved into the library,
it has been modified so that it can parse the attributes without
printing them and stores them in a map. ELFObjectFile now queries
the attributes to fill out the architecture details of a provided
triple for 'arm' and 'thumb' targets. llvm-objdump uses this new
functionality.

No need to have this per-architecture. While there, unify 32-bit ARM's
behaviour with what changed elsewhere and start function names lowercase
as per the coding standards. Individual entry emission code goes to the
entry's own class.

This implements execute-only support for ARM code generation, which
prevents the compiler from generating data accesses to code sections.
The following changes are involved:
* Add the CodeGen option "-arm-execute-only" to the ARM code generator.
* Add the clang flag "-mexecute-only" as well as the GCC-compatible
alias "-mpure-code" to enable this option.
* When enabled, literal pools are replaced with MOVW/MOVT instructions,
with VMOV used in addition for floating-point literals. As the MOVT
instruction is required, execute-only support is only available in
Thumb mode for targets supporting ARMv8-M baseline or Thumb2.
* Jump tables are placed in data sections when in execute-only mode.
* The execute-only text section is assigned section ID 0, and is
marked as unreadable with the SHF_ARM_PURECODE flag with symbol 'y'.
This also overrides selection of ELF sections for globals.
llvm-svn: 289784
When the base register (register pointing to the jump table) is the PC, we expect the jump table to directly follow the jump sequence with no intervening padding.
If there is intervening padding, the calculated offsets will not be correct. One solution would be to account for any padding in the emitted LDRB instruction, but at the moment we don't support emitting MCExprs for the load offset.
In the meantime, it's correct and only a slight amount worse to just move the padding up, from just before the jump table to just before the jump instruction sequence. We can do that by emitting code alignment before the jump sequence, as we know the number of instructions in the sequence is always 4.
llvm-svn: 286107
[Reapplying r284580 and r285917 with fix and testing to ensure emitted jump tables for Thumb-1 have 4-byte alignment]
The TBB and TBH instructions in Thumb-2 allow jump tables to be compressed into sequences of bytes or shorts respectively. These instructions do not exist in Thumb-1, however it is possible to synthesize them out of a sequence of other instructions.
It turns out this sequence is so short that it's almost never a lose for performance and is ALWAYS a significant win for code size.
TBB example:
Before: lsls r0, r0, #2 After: add r0, pc
adr r1, .LJTI0_0 ldrb r0, [r0, #6]
ldr r0, [r0, r1] lsls r0, r0, #1
mov pc, r0 add pc, r0
=> No change in prologue code size or dynamic instruction count. Jump table shrunk by a factor of 4.
The only case that can increase dynamic instruction count is the TBH case:
Before: lsls r0, r4, #2 After: lsls r4, r4, #1
adr r1, .LJTI0_0 add r4, pc
ldr r0, [r0, r1] ldrh r4, [r4, #6]
mov pc, r0 lsls r4, r4, #1
add pc, r4
=> 1 more instruction in prologue. Jump table shrunk by a factor of 2.
So there is an argument that this should be disabled when optimizing for performance (and a TBH needs to be generated). I'm not so sure about that in practice, because on small cores with Thumb-1 performance is often tied to code size. But I'm willing to turn it off when optimizing for performance if people want (also note that TBHs are fairly rare in practice!)

This patch adds simplified support for tail calls on ARM with XRay instrumentation.
Known issue: compiled with generic flags: `-O3 -g -fxray-instrument -Wall
-std=c++14 -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections` (this list doesn't include my
specific flags like --target=armv7-linux-gnueabihf etc.), the following program
#include <cstdio>
#include <cassert>
#include <xray/xray_interface.h>
[[clang::xray_always_instrument]] void __attribute__ ((noinline)) fC() {
std::printf("In fC()\n");
}
[[clang::xray_always_instrument]] void __attribute__ ((noinline)) fB() {
std::printf("In fB()\n");
fC();
}
[[clang::xray_always_instrument]] void __attribute__ ((noinline)) fA() {
std::printf("In fA()\n");
fB();
}
// Avoid infinite recursion in case the logging function is instrumented (so calls logging
// function again).
[[clang::xray_never_instrument]] void simplyPrint(int32_t functionId, XRayEntryType xret)
{
printf("XRay: functionId=%d type=%d.\n", int(functionId), int(xret));
}
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
__xray_set_handler(simplyPrint);
printf("Patching...\n");
__xray_patch();
fA();
printf("Unpatching...\n");
__xray_unpatch();
fA();
return 0;
}
gives the following output:
Patching...
XRay: functionId=3 type=0.
In fA()
XRay: functionId=3 type=1.
XRay: functionId=2 type=0.
In fB()
XRay: functionId=2 type=1.
XRay: functionId=1 type=0.
XRay: functionId=1 type=1.
In fC()
Unpatching...
In fA()
In fB()
In fC()
So for function fC() the exit sled seems to be called too much before function
exit: before printing In fC().
Debugging shows that the above happens because printf from fC is also called as
a tail call. So first the exit sled of fC is executed, and only then printf is
jumped into. So it seems we can't do anything about this with the current
approach (i.e. within the simplification described in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D23988 ).

If a constant is unamed_addr and is only used within one function, we can save
on the code size and runtime cost of an indirection by changing the global's storage
to inside the constant pool. For example, instead of:
ldr r0, .CPI0
bl printf
bx lr
.CPI0: &format_string
format_string: .asciz "hello, world!\n"
We can emit:
adr r0, .CPI0
bl printf
bx lr
.CPI0: .asciz "hello, world!\n"
This can cause significant code size savings when many small strings are used in one
function (4 bytes per string).
This recommit contains fixes for a nasty bug related to fast-isel fallback - because
fast-isel doesn't know about this optimization, if it runs and emits references to
a string that we inline (because fast-isel fell back to SDAG) we will end up
with an inlined string and also an out-of-line string, and we won't emit the
out-of-line string, causing backend failures.
It also contains fixes for emitting .text relocations which made the sanitizer
bots unhappy.

Before, only Thumb functions were marked as ".code 16". These
".code x" directives are effective until the next directive of its
kind is encountered. Therefore, in code with interleaved ARM and
Thumb functions, it was possible to declare a function as ARM and
end up with a Thumb function after assembly. A test has been added.
An existing test has also been fixed to take this change into
account.

This patch adds support for some new relocation models to the ARM
backend:
* Read-only position independence (ROPI): Code and read-only data is accessed
PC-relative. The offsets between all code and RO data sections are known at
static link time. This does not affect read-write data.
* Read-write position independence (RWPI): Read-write data is accessed relative
to the static base register (r9). The offsets between all writeable data
sections are known at static link time. This does not affect read-only data.
These two modes are independent (they specify how different objects
should be addressed), so they can be used individually or together. They
are otherwise the same as the "static" relocation model, and are not
compatible with SysV-style PIC using a global offset table.
These modes are normally used by bare-metal systems or systems with
small real-time operating systems. They are designed to avoid the need
for a dynamic linker, the only initialisation required is setting r9 to
an appropriate value for RWPI code.
I have only added support to SelectionDAG, not FastISel, because
FastISel is currently disabled for bare-metal targets where these modes
would be used.

Windows on ARM uses a pure thumb-2 environment. This means that it can select a
high register when doing a __builtin_longjmp. We would use a tLDRi which would
truncate the register to a low register. Use a t2LDRi12 to get the full
