Add support for the "@high" and "@higha" symbol modifiers in powerpc64 assembly.
The modifiers represent accessing the segment consiting of bits 16-31 of a
64-bit address/offset.

As a first step towards real little-endian code generation, this patch
changes the PowerPC MC layer to actually generate little-endian object
files. This involves passing the little-endian flag through the various
layers, including down to createELFObjectWriter so we actually get basic
little-endian ELF objects, emitting instructions in little-endian order,
and handling fixups and relocations as appropriate for little-endian.
The bulk of the patch is to update most test cases in test/MC/PowerPC
to verify both big- and little-endian encodings. (The only test cases
*not* updated are those that create actual big-endian ABI code, like
the TLS tests.)
Note that while the object files are now little-endian, the generated
code itself is not yet updated, in particular, it still does not adhere
to the ELFv2 ABI.

Various tests had sprung up over the years which had --check-prefix=ABC on the
RUN line, but "CHECK-ABC:" later on. This happened to work before, but was
strictly incorrect. FileCheck is getting stricter soon though.

This was unfortunately incorrect, there is is fact another,
serious drawback to using the default VK_TLSLD/VK_TLSGD
variant kinds: using these causes ELFObjectWriter::RelocNeedsGOT
to return true, which in turn causes the ELFObjectWriter to emit
an undefined reference to _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_.
This is a problem on powerpc64, because it uses the TOC instead
of the GOT, and the linker does not provide _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_,
so the symbol remains undefined. This means shared libraries
using TLS built with the integrated assembler are currently
broken.
While the whole RelocNeedsGOT / _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ situation
probably ought to be properly fixed at some point, for now I'm
simply reverting the r185476 commit. Now this in turn exposes
the breakage of handling @tlsgd/@tlsld in the asm parser that
this check-in was originally intended to fix.
To avoid this regression, I'm also adding a different fix for
this problem: while common code now parses @tlsgd as VK_TLSGD,
a special hack in the asm parser translates this code to the
platform-specific VK_PPC_TLSGD that the back-end now expects.
While this is not really pretty, it's self-contained and
shouldn't hurt anything else for now. One the underlying
problem is fixed, this hack can be reverted again.

When a target@got@tprel or target@got@tprel@l symbol variant is used in
a fixup_ppc_half16 (*not* fixup_ppc_half16ds) context, we currently fail,
since the corresponding R_PPC64_GOT_TPREL16 / R_PPC64_GOT_TPREL16_LO
relocation types do not exist.
However, since such symbol variants resolve to GOT offsets which are
always 4-aligned, we can simply instead use the _DS variants of the
relocation types, which *do* exist.
The same applies for the @got@dtprel variants.
llvm-svn: 185700
The ppc64-fixups.s test currently fails to build with GNU as, since it
does not support plain symbols as arguments to li/lis. Rewrite the test
for R_PPC64_ADDR16 and R_PPC64_REL16 to use lwz instead.
Allowing the test case to be built with both LLVM and GNU as makes it
easier to spot unwanted difference in the output.
llvm-svn: 185694
This adds support for the last missing construct to parse TLS-related
assembler code:
add 3, 4, symbol@tls
The ADD8TLS currently hard-codes the @tls into the assembler string.
This cannot be handled by the asm parser, since @tls is parsed as
a symbol variant. This patch changes ADD8TLS to have the @tls suffix
printed as symbol variant on output too, which allows us to remove
the isCodeGenOnly marker from ADD8TLS. This in turn means that we
can add a AsmOperand to accept @tls marked symbols on input.
As a side effect, this means that the fixup_ppc_tlsreg fixup type
is no longer necessary and can be merged into fixup_ppc_nofixup.
llvm-svn: 185692
This patch now adds support for recognizing TLS call sequences in
the asm parser. This needs a new pattern BL8_TLS, which is like
BL8_NOP_TLS except without nop. That pattern is used for the
asm parser only.
llvm-svn: 185478
This adds support for TLS data relocations and modifiers:
.quad target@dtpmod
.quad target@tprel
.quad target@dtprel
Currently exploited by the asm parser only.
llvm-svn: 185394
Currently, all instructions taking s16imm operands support symbolic
operands. However, for u16imm operands, we only support actual
immediate integers. This causes the assembler to reject code like
ori %r5, %r5, symbol@l
This patch changes the u16imm operand definition to likewise
accept symbolic operands. In fact, s16imm and u16imm can
share the same encoding routine, now renamed to getImm16Encoding.
llvm-svn: 184944
There is currently only limited support for the "absolute" variants
of branch instructions. This patch adds support for the absolute
variants of all branches that are currently otherwise supported.
This requires adding new fixup types so that the correct variant
of relocation type can be selected by the object writer.
While the compiler will continue to usually choose the relative
branch variants, this will allow the asm parser to fully support
the absolute branches, with either immediate (numerical) or
symbolic target addresses.
No change in code generation intended.
llvm-svn: 184721
The GNU assembler supports (as extension to the ABI) use of PC-relative
relocations in half16 fields, which allows writing code like:
li 1, base-.
This patch adds support for those relocation types in the assembler.
llvm-svn: 184552
The current code base only supports the minimum set of tls-related
relocations and @modifiers that are necessary to support compiler-
generated code. This patch extends this to the full set defined
in the ABI (and supported by the GNU assembler) for the benefit
of the assembler parser.
llvm-svn: 184551
This adds necessary infrastructure to support the @h modifier.
Note that all required relocation types were already present
(and unused).
This patch provides support for using @h in the assembler;
it would also be possible to now use this feature in code
generated by the compiler, but this is not done yet.
llvm-svn: 184548
Now that fixup_ppc_ha16 and fixup_ppc_lo16 are being treated exactly
the same everywhere, it no longer makes sense to have two fixup types.
This patch merges them both into a single type fixup_ppc_half16,
and renames fixup_ppc_lo16_ds to fixup_ppc_half16ds for consistency.
(The half16 and half16ds names are taken from the description of
relocation types in the PowerPC ABI.)
No change in code generation expected.
llvm-svn: 182092
The current PowerPC MC back end distinguishes between fixup_ppc_ha16
and fixup_ppc_lo16, which are determined by the instruction the fixup
applies to, and uses this distinction to decide whether a fixup ought
to resolve to the high or the low part of a symbol address.
This isn't quite correct, however. It is valid -if unusual- assembler
to use, e.g.
li 1, symbol@ha
or
lis 1, symbol@l
Whether the high or the low part of the address is used depends solely
on the @ suffix, not on the instruction.
In addition, both
li 1, symbol
and
lis 1, symbol
are valid, assuming the symbol address fits into 16 bits; again, both
will then refer to the actual symbol value (so li will load the value
itself, while lis will load the value shifted by 16).
To fix this, two places need to be adapted. If the fixup cannot be
resolved at assembler time, a relocation needs to be emitted via
PPCELFObjectWriter::getRelocType. This routine already looks at
the VK_ type to determine the relocation. The only problem is that
will reject any _LO modifier in a ha16 fixup and vice versa. This
is simply incorrect; any of those modifiers ought to be accepted
for either fixup type.
If the fixup *can* be resolved at assembler time, adjustFixupValue
currently selects the high bits of the symbol value if the fixup
type is ha16. Again, this is incorrect; see the above example
lis 1, symbol
Now, in theory we'd have to respect a VK_ modifier here. However,
in fact common code never even attempts to resolve symbol references
using any nontrivial VK_ modifier at assembler time; it will always
fall back to emitting a reloc and letting the linker handle it.
If this ever changes, presumably there'd have to be a target callback
to resolve VK_ modifiers. We'd then have to handle @ha etc. there.
llvm-svn: 182091
Now that applyFixup understands differently-sized fixups, we can define
fixup_ppc_lo16/fixup_ppc_lo16_ds/fixup_ppc_ha16 to properly be 2-byte
fixups, applied at an offset of 2 relative to the start of the
instruction text.
This has the benefit that if we actually need to generate a real
relocation record, its address will come out correctly automatically,
without having to fiddle with the offset in adjustFixupOffset.
Tested on both 64-bit and 32-bit PowerPC, using external and
integrated assembler.
llvm-svn: 181894
This patch extends test/MC/PowerPC/ppc64-fixups.s to not only check for
the correct fixup type in the --show-encoding output, but also runs the
generated object file through llvm-readobj -r and verifies that the
correct ELF relocation records were generated.
llvm-svn: 181453
This patch adds support for PowerPC platform-specific variant
kinds in MCSymbolRefExpr::getVariantKindForName, and also
adds a test case to verify they are translated to the appropriate
fixup type.
