- Honor .globl.
- Set symbol type and section correctly ('nm' now works), and order symbols
appropriately.
- Take care to the string table so that the .o matches 'as' exactly (for ease
of testing).

- The only .s syntax this honors right now is emitting labels, and some parts
of the symbol table generation are wrong or faked.
- This is enough to get nm to report such symbols... incorrectly, but still.
Also, fixed byte emission to extend the previous fragment if possible.

(external was really undefined and there wasn't an explicit representation for
absolute symbols).
- This still needs some cleanup to how the absolute "pseudo" section is dealt
with, but I haven't figured out the nicest approach yet.

bytes. libgcc doesn't seem to mind, but if you pass this DWARF to GDB, it
doesn't like it.
Also make the JIT memory manager to initialize it's memory to garbage in debug
mode, so that it's easier to find bugs like these in the future.

- Together these form the (Mach-O) back end of the assembler.
- MCAssembler is the actual assembler backend, which is designed to have a
reasonable API. This will eventually grow to support multiple object file
implementations, but for now its Mach-O/i386 only.
- MCMachOStreamer adapts the MCStreamer "actions" API to the MCAssembler API,
e.g. converting the various directives into fragments, managing state like
the current section, and so on.
- llvm-mc will use the new backend via '-filetype=obj', which may eventually
be, but is not yet, since I hear that people like assemblers which actually
assemble.
- The only thing that works at the moment is changing sections. For the time
being I have a Python Mach-O dumping tool in test/scripts so this stuff can
be easily tested, eventually I expect to replace this with a real LLVM tool.
- More doxyments to come.
I assume that since this stuff doesn't touch any of the things which are part of
2.6 that it is ok to put this in not so long before the freeze, but if someone
objects let me know, I can pull it.

conversion code do we really need?
- S.append_uint(N) can be replaced with 'raw_svector_ostream(S) << N' which is
somewhat slower due to the extra set up cost, but still plenty fast
(especially if the svector set up cost can be amortized).
llvm-svn: 79450
right.
- This class turns out to be much more convenient to use if we do this; clients
can make sure the buffer is always big enough if they care (since our current
idiom tends to be to use a SmallString<256> for the input to this we should
generally be avoiding an unnecessary malloc).
Also, add a convenience raw_svector_ostream::str method which flushes the buffer
and returns a StringRef for the vector contents.
llvm-svn: 79446
- This avoids unnecessary malloc/free overhead in the common case, and
unnecessary copying from the ostream buffer into the output vector.
llvm-svn: 79434
- These allow clients to make use of the extra elements in the vector which
have already been allocated, without requiring them to be value initialized.
