Now, after landing r270560, r270557, r270320 it is a proper time.
Original commit message:
[llvm-mc] - Teach llvm-mc to generate compressed debug sections in zlib style.
Before this patch llvm-mc generated zlib-gnu styled sections.
That means no SHF_COMPRESSED flag was set, magic 'zlib' signature
was used in combination with full size field. Sections were renamed to "*.z*".
This patch reimplements the compression style to zlib one as zlib-gnu looks
to be depricated everywhere.

Actually it is just because D20273 not yet commited, but these 2 were crossing with each other,
and I`ll better find the way to land them separatelly soon.

Summary:
There seems to have been a misunderstanding as to the meaning of 'offset' in
the rules laid down by our ABI. The previous code believed that 'offset' meant
the offset within the section that the relocation is applied to. However, it
should have meant the offset from the symbol used in the relocation expression.
This patch adds two fields to ELFRelocationEntry and uses them to correct the
order of relocations for MIPS. These fields contain:
* The original symbol before shouldRelocateWithSymbol() is considered. This
ensures that R_MIPS_GOT16 is able to correctly distinguish between local and
external symbols, allowing us to tell whether %got() requires a matching
%lo() or not (local symbols require one, external symbols don't). It also
prevents confusing cases where the fuzzy matching rules cause things like
%hi(foo)/%lo(foo+3) and %hi(bar)/%lo(bar+1) to swap their %lo()'s.
* The original offset before shouldRelocateWithSymbol() is considered. The
existing Addend field is always zero when the object uses in place addends
(because it's already moved it to the encoding) but MIPS needs to use the
original offset to ensure that the linker correctly calculates the carry-in
bit for %hi() and %got().
IAS ensures that unmatchable %hi()/%got() relocations are placed at the end of
the table to ensure that the linker rejects the table (we're unable to report
such errors directly). The alternatives to this risk accidental matching
against inappropriate relocations which may silently compute incorrect values
due to an incorrect carry bit between the %lo() and %hi()/%got().

Summary:
This is much closer to the way MIPS relocation expressions work
(%hi(foo + 2) rather than %hi(foo) + 2) and removes the need for the
various bodges in MipsAsmParser::evaluateRelocExpr().
Removing those bodges ensures that the constant stored in MCValue is the
full 32 or 64-bit (depending on ABI) offset from the symbol. This will be used
to correct the %hi/%lo matching needed to sort the relocation table correctly.
As part of this:
* Gave MCExpr::print() the ability to omit parenthesis when emitting a
symbol reference inside a MipsMCExpr operator like %hi(X). Without this
we print things like %lo(($L1)).
* %hi(%neg(%gprel(X))) is now three MipsMCExpr's instead of one. Most of
the related special cases have been removed or moved to MipsMCExpr. We
can remove the rest as we gain support for the less common relocations
when they are not part of this specific combination.
* Renamed MipsMCExpr::VariantKind and the enum prefix ('VK_') to avoid confusion
with MCSymbolRefExpr::VariantKind and its prefix (also 'VK_').
* fixup_Mips_GOT_Local and fixup_Mips_GOT_Global were found to be identical
and merged into fixup_Mips_GOT.
* MO_GOT16 and MO_GOT turned out to be identical and have been merged into
MO_GOT.
* VK_Mips_GOT and VK_Mips_GOT16 turned out to be the same thing so they
have been merged into MEK_GOT

This is a fix for PR26941.
When there is both a section and a global definition with the same
name, the global wins.
Section symbols are not added to the symbol table; section references
are left undefined and fixed up in the object writer unless they've
been satisfied by some other definition.
llvm-svn: 264649
When a symbol S shows up in an expression in assembly there are two
possible interpretations
* The expression is referring to the value of S in this file.
* The expression is referring to the value after symbol resolution.
In the first case the assembler can reason about the value and try to
produce a relocation.
In the second case, that is only possible if the symbol cannot be
preempted.
Assemblers are not very consistent about which interpretation gets used.
This changes MC to agree with GAS in the case of an expression of the
form "Sym - WeakSym".

These days relocations are created and stored in a deterministic way.
The order they are created is also suitable for the .o file, so we don't
need an explicit sort.
The last remaining exception is MIPS.
llvm-svn: 255902
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.

In this mode it just tries to tail merge the strings without imposing any other
format constrains. It will not, for example, add a null byte between them.
Also add support for keeping a tentative size and offset if we decide to
not optimize after all.
This will be used shortly in lld for merging SHF_STRINGS sections.

This extends the work done in r233995 so that now getFragment (in addition to
getSection) also works for variable symbols.
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
per section. It is used to assign a section to a symbol when no other fragment
exists.
This patch is a joint work by Maxim Ostapenko andy myself.

There are occasions where it is useful to consider the entirety of the
contents of a section. For example, compressed debug info needs the
entire section available before it can compress it and write it out.
The compressed debug info scenario was previously implemented by
mirroring the implementation of writeSectionData in the ELFObjectWriter.
Instead, allow the output stream to be swapped on demand. This lets
callers redirect the output stream to a more convenient location before
it hits the object file.
No functionality change is intended.

This causes errors like:

Now that pr23900 is fixed, we can bring it back with no changes.
Original message:
Make all temporary symbols unnamed.
What this does is make all symbols that would otherwise start with a .L
(or L on MachO) unnamed.
Some of these symbols still show up in the symbol table, but we can just
make them unnamed.
In order to make sure we produce identical results when going thought assembly,
all .L (not just the compiler produced ones), are now unnamed.
Running llc on llvm-as.opt.bc, the peak memory usage goes from 208.24MB to
205.57MB.

Section symbols exist as an optimization: instead of having multiple relocations
point to different symbols, many of them can point to a single section symbol.
When that optimization is unused, a section symbol is also unused and adds no
extra information to the object file.
This saves a bit of space on the object files and makes the output of
llvm-objdump -t easier to read and consequently some tests get quite a bit
simpler.

The fix is just that getOther had not been updated for packing the st_other
values in fewer bits and could return spurious values:
- unsigned Other = (getFlags() & (0x3f << ELF_STO_Shift)) >> ELF_STO_Shift;
+ unsigned Other = (getFlags() & (0x7 << ELF_STO_Shift)) >> ELF_STO_Shift;

This create a MCSymbolELF class and moves SymbolSize since only ELF
needs a size expression.
