For a definition (of most linkage types), dso_local is set for ELF -fno-pic/-fpie
and COFF, but not for Mach-O. This nuance causes unneeded binary format differences.
This patch replaces (function) `define ` with `define{{.*}} `,
(variable/constant/alias) `= ` with `={{.*}} `, or inserts appropriate `{{.*}} `
if there is an explicit linkage.
* Clang will set dso_local for Mach-O, which is currently implied by TargetMachine.cpp. This will make COFF/Mach-O and executable ELF similar.
* Eventually I hope we can make dso_local the textual LLVM IR default (write explicit "dso_preemptable" when applicable) and -fpic ELF will be similar to everything else. This patch helps move toward that goal.
Summary:
Upstream LLVM is changing the the prototypes of the @llvm.memcpy/memmove/memset
intrinsics. This change updates the Clang tests for this change.
The @llvm.memcpy/memmove/memset intrinsics currently have an explicit argument
which is required to be a constant integer. It represents the alignment of the
dest (and source), and so must be the minimum of the actual alignment of the
two.
This change removes the alignment argument in favour of placing the alignment
attribute on the source and destination pointers of the memory intrinsic call.
For example, code which used to read:
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* %dest, i8* %src, i32 100, i32 4, i1 false)
will now read
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* align 4 %dest, i8* align 4 %src, i32 100, i1 false)
At this time the source and destination alignments must be the same (Step 1).
Step 2 of the change, to be landed shortly, will relax that contraint and allow
the source and destination to have different alignments.

This is a follow on from a similar LLVM commit: r253511.
Note, this was reviewed (and more details are in) http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20151109/312083.html
These intrinsics currently have an explicit alignment argument which is
required to be a constant integer. It represents the alignment of the
source and dest, and so must be the minimum of those.
This change allows source and dest to each have their own alignments
by using the alignment attribute on their arguments. The alignment
argument itself is removed.
The only code change to clang is hidden in CGBuilder.h which now passes
both dest and source alignment to IRBuilder, instead of taking the minimum of
dest and source alignments.

Code in CGCall.cpp that loads up function arguments that need to be
coerced to a different type may in some cases ignore the fact that
the source of the argument is not naturally aligned. This may cause
incorrect code to be generated. In some places in CreateCoercedLoad,
we already have setAlignment calls to address this, but I ran into one
where it was missing, causing wrong code generation on SystemZ.
However, in that location, we do not actually know what alignment of
the source location we can rely on; the callers do not pass anything
to this routine. This is already an issue in other places in
CreateCoercedLoad; and the same problem exists for CreateCoercedStore.
To avoid pessimising code, and to fix the FIXMEs already in place,
this patch also adds an alignment argument to the CreateCoerced*
routines and uses it instead of forcing an alignment of 1. The
callers are changed to pass in the best information they have.
This actually requires changes in a number of existing test cases
since we now get better alignment in many places.
