LLVM_ENABLE_TIMESTAMPS controls if timestamps are embedded into llvm's
binaries. Turning it off is useful for deterministic builds.
r246905 made it so that the define suddenly also controls if the binaries that
the llvm binaries _create_ embed timestamps or not – but this shouldn't be a
configure-time option. r256203/r256204 added a driver option to toggle this on
and off, so this patch now passes this driver option in LLVM_ENABLE_TIMESTAMPS
builds so that if LLVM_ENABLE_TIMESTAMPS is set, the build of LLVM is
deterministic – but the built clang can still write timestamps into other
executables when requested.
This also allows removing some of the test machinery added in r292012 to work
around this problem.

of casting the integer '4' to such a pointer. There is no reason to
expect '4' to be a portable or reliable pointer of this form. The only
reason this ever worked is because the PointerIntPair that this actually
gets used with has an artificially *low* presumed alignment that allowed
it to work. When the alignment of PointerIntPair is derived from the
actual type's alignment, the asserts start firing on this pointer. I'm
amazed we never managed to do anything that triggered the alignment
sanitizer with it, as this is just flat out UB.
If folks dislike this approach to providing a sentinel fragment address,
there are a myriad of other alternatives, suggestions welcome. But this
one has the distinct advantage of not requiring the friend dance of
ilist's sentinel (which I'll point out is *also* in play for
MCFragment!) and seems to be using a nicely provided facility in
MCFragment to establish just such dummy nodes.
This is part of a series of patches to allow LLVM to check for complete

Note that this doesn't in any way change the design of MC, it is just
moving code around to allow the *header files* to be more fine grained.
Without this, it is impossible to get a complete type for MCSection

Today, we always take into account the possibility that object files
produced by MC may be consumed by an incremental linker. This results
in us initialing fields which vary with time (TimeDateStamp) which harms
hermetic builds (e.g. verifying a self-host went well) and produces
sub-optimal code because we cannot assume anything about the relative
position of functions within a section (call sites can get redirected
through incremental linker thunks).
Let's provide an MCTargetOption which controls this behavior so that we
can disable this functionality if we know a-priori that the build will
not rely on /incremental.

Support for COFF timestamps was unintentionally broken in r246905 when
it was conditionally available depending on whether or not LLVM was
configured with LLVM_ENABLE_TIMESTAMPS. However, Config/config.h was
never included which essentially broke the feature. Due to lax testing,
the breakage was never identified until we observed strange failures
during incremental links of Chromium.
This issue is resolved by simply including Config/config.h in
WinCOFFObjectWriter and teaching lit that the MC/COFF/timestamp.s test
is conditionally supported depending on LLVM_ENABLE_TIMESTAMPS. With
this in place, we can strengthen the test to ensure that it will not
accidentally get broken in the future.
This fixes PR25891.

The COFF object writer was previously adding unnecessary symbols to its
temporary data structures and cleaning them up later. This made the code
harder to understand and caused a bug (aliases classed as temporary symbols
would cause an assertion failure). A much simpler way of handling such

If a section is rw, it is irrelevant if the dynamic linker will write to
it or not.
It looks like llvm implemented this because gcc was doing it. It looks
like gcc implemented this in the hope that it would put all the
relocated items close together and speed up the dynamic linker.
There are two problem with this:
* It doesn't work. Both bfd and gold will map .data.rel to .data and
concatenate the input sections in the order they are seen.
* If we want a feature like that, it can be implemented directly in the
linker since it knowns where the dynamic relocations are.
llvm-svn: 253436
Currently, if the assembler encounters an error after parsing (such as an
out-of-range fixup), it reports this as a fatal error, and so stops after the
first error. However, for most of these there is an obvious way to recover
after emitting the error, such as emitting the fixup with a value of zero. This
means that we can report on all of the errors in a file, not just the first
one. MCContext::reportError records the fact that an error was encountered, so
we won't actually emit an object file with the incorrect contents.
Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D14717

This adds reportError to MCContext, which can be used as an alternative to
reportFatalError when the assembler wants to try to continue processing the
rest of the file after the error is reported, so that all of the errors ina
file can be reported. It records the fact that an error was encountered, so we
can avoid emitting an object file if any errors occurred.
This patch doesn't add any uses of this function (a later patch will convert
most uses of reportFatalError to use it), but there is a small functional
change: we use the SourceManager to print the error message, even if we have a
null SMLoc. This means that we get a SourceManager-style message, with the file
and line information shown as <unknown>, rather than the "LLVM ERROR" style
used by report_fatal_error.
llvm-svn: 253327
The way prelink used to work was
* The compiler decides if a given section only has relocations that
are know to point to the same DSO. If so, it names it
.data.rel.ro.local<something>.
* The static linker puts all of these together.
* The prelinker program assigns addresses to each library and resolves
the local relocations.
There are many problems with this:
* It is incompatible with address space randomization.
* The information passed by the compiler is redundant. The linker
knows if a given relocation is in the same DSO or not. If could sort
by that if so desired.
* There are newer ways of speeding up DSO (gnu hash for example).
* Even if we want to implement this again in the compiler, the previous
implementation is pretty broken. It talks about relocations that are
"resolved by the static linker". If they are resolved, there are none
left for the prelinker. What one needs to track is if an expression
will require only dynamic relocations that point to the same DSO.
At this point it looks like the prelinker is an historical curiosity.
For example, fedora has retired it because it failed to build for two
releases

MCRelaxableFragment previously kept a copy of MCSubtargetInfo and
MCInst to enable re-encoding the MCInst later during relaxation. A copy
of MCSubtargetInfo (instead of a reference or pointer) was needed
because the feature bits could be modified by the parser.
This commit replaces the MCSubtargetInfo copy in MCRelaxableFragment
with a constant reference to MCSubtargetInfo. The copies of
MCSubtargetInfo are kept in MCContext, and the target parsers are now
responsible for asking MCContext to provide a copy whenever the feature
bits of MCSubtargetInfo have to be toggled.

This is a patch to improve StringTableBuilder's performance. That class'
finalize function is very hot particularly in LLD because the function
does tail-merge strings in string tables or SHF_MERGE sections.
Generic std::sort-style sorter is not efficient for sorting strings.
The function implemented in this patch seems to be more efficient.
Here's a benchmark of LLD to link Clang with or without this patch.
The numbers are medians of 50 runs.

real 0m0.430s (5.5% faster)
-O3

StringTableBuilder itself is much more than that.

In PIC mode we were previously computing global variable addresses (or GOT
entry addresses) by adding the PC, the PC-relative GOT displacement and
the GOT-relative symbol/GOT entry displacement. Because the latter two
displacements are fixed, we ended up performing one more addition than
necessary.
This change causes us to compute addresses using a single PC-relative
displacement, resulting in a shorter code sequence. This reduces code size
by about 4% in a recent build of Chromium for Android.
As a result of this change we no longer need to compute the GOT base address
in the ARM backend, which allows us to remove the Global Base Reg pass and
SDAG lowering for the GOT.
We also now no longer use the GOT when addressing a symbol which is known
to be defined in the same linkage unit. Specifically, the symbol must have
either hidden visibility or a strong definition in the current module in
order to not use the the GOT.
This is a change from the previous behaviour where we would use the GOT to
address externally visible symbols defined in the same module. I think the
only cases where this could matter are cases involving symbol interposition,
but we don't really support that well anyway.

Recommit r250342: move coal-sections-powerpc.s to subdirectory for powerpc.
Some background on why we don't have to use *coal* sections anymore:
Long ago when C++ was new and "weak" had not been standardized, an attempt was
made in cctools to support C++ inlines that can be coalesced by putting them
into their own section (TEXT/textcoal_nt instead of TEXT/text).
The current macho linker supports the weak-def bit on any symbol to allow it to
be coalesced, but the compiler still puts weak-def functions/data into alternate
section names, which the linker must map back to the base section name.
This patch makes changes that are necessary to prevent the compiler from using
the "coal" sections and have it use the non-coal sections instead when the
target architecture is not powerpc:
TEXT/textcoal_nt instead use TEXT/text
TEXT/const_coal instead use TEXT/const
DATA/datacoal_nt instead use DATA/data
If the target is powerpc, we continue to use the *coal* sections since anyone
targeting powerpc is probably using an old linker that doesn't have support for
the weak-def bits.
Also, have the assembler issue a warning if it encounters a *coal* section in
the assembly file and inform the users to use the non-coal sections instead.

This extends the work done in r233995 so that now getFragment (in addition to

With that the existing logic to decide if a-b can be computed works even if
a or b are variables. Given that, the expression evaluation can avoid expanding
variables as aggressively and that in turn lets the relocation code see the
original variable.
In order for this to work with the asm streamer, there is now a dummy fragment
