This change puts the functionality in commit
c5792aa90f behind a flag that is off by
default. The original commit is not in Apple's Clang fork (and blocks
are an Apple extension in the first place), and there is one known
issue that needs to be addressed before it can be enabled safely.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D108243
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.
initializes a local auto variable or is assigned to a local auto
variable that is declared in the scope that introduced the block
literal.
