We now create the .eh_frame section early, just like every other special

This means that the special flags are visible in code that explicitly
asks for ".eh_frame".

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 prevents MC clients from getting COFF.h, which conflicts with

This reverts commit r245047.
It was failing on the darwin bots. The problem was that when running
./bin/llc -march=msp430
llc gets to
if (TheTriple.getTriple().empty())
TheTriple.setTriple(sys::getDefaultTargetTriple());
Which means that we go with an arch of msp430 but a triple of
x86_64-apple-darwin14.4.0 which fails badly.
That code has to be updated to select a triple based on the value of
march, but that is not a trivial fix.
llvm-svn: 245062
Other than some places that were handling unknown as ELF, this should
have no change. The test updates are because we were detecting
arm-coff or x86_64-win64-coff as ELF targets before.
It is not clear if the enum should live on the Triple. At least now it lives
in a single location and should be easier to move somewhere else.

llvm-svn: 240613
Summary:
This affects other tools so the previous C++ API has been retained as a
deprecated function for the moment. Clang has been updated with a trivial
patch (not covered by the pre-commit review) to avoid breaking -Werror builds.
Other in-tree tools will be fixed with similar patches.
This continues the patch series to eliminate StringRef forms of GNU triples
from the internals of LLVM that began in r239036.
The first time this was committed it accidentally fixed an inconsistency in
triples in llvm-mc and this caused a failure. This inconsistency was fixed in
r239808.

Summary:
This instruction encodes a loading operation that may fault, and a label
to branch to if the load page-faults. The locations of potentially
faulting loads and their "handler" destinations are recorded in a
FaultMap section, meant to be consumed by LLVM's clients.
Nothing generates FAULTING_LOAD_OP instructions yet, but they will be
used in a future change.
The documentation (FaultMaps.rst) needs improvement and I will update
this diff with a more expanded version shortly.

This commit uses DW_EH_PE_sdata8 for N64 as far as is possible at the moment.
However, it is possible to end up with DW_EH_PE_sdata4 when a TargetMachine is
not available. There's no risk of issues with inconsistency here since the
tables are self describing but it does mean there is a small chance of the
PC-relative offset being out of range for particularly large programs.

This starts merging MCSection and MCSectionData.
There are a few issues with the current split between MCSection and
MCSectionData.
* It optimizes the the not as important case. We want the production
of .o files to be really fast, but the split puts the information used
for .o emission in a separate data structure.
* The ELF/COFF/MachO hierarchy is not represented in MCSectionData,
leading to some ad-hoc ways to represent the various flags.
* It makes it harder to remember where each item is.
The attached patch starts merging the two by moving the alignment from
MCSectionData to MCSection.
Most of the patch is actually just dropping 'const', since
MCSectionData is mutable, but MCSection was not.
llvm-svn: 237936
Summary:
The object format can be set to something other than MachO, e.g.
to use ELF-on-Darwin for MCJIT. This already works on Windows, so
there's no reason it shouldn't on Darwin.

Any code creating an MCSectionELF knows ELF and already provides the flags.
SectionKind is an abstraction used by common code that uses a plain

link.exe:
Fuzz testing has shown that COMMON symbols with size > 32 will always
have an alignment of at least 32 and all symbols with size < 32 will
have an alignment of at least the largest power of 2 less than the size
of the symbol.
binutils:
The BFD linker essentially work like the link.exe behavior but with
alignment 4 instead of 32. The BFD linker also supports an extension to
COFF which adds an -aligncomm argument to the .drectve section which
permits specifying a precise alignment for a variable but MC currently
doesn't support editing .drectve in this way.
With all of this in mind, we decide to play a little trick: we can
ensure that the alignment will be respected by bumping the size of the
global to it's alignment.
