This patch adds support for the MachO .alt_entry assembly directive, and uses
it for global aliases with non-zero GEP offsets. The alt_entry flag indicates
that a symbol should be layed out immediately after the preceding symbol.
Conceptually it introduces an alternate entry point for a function or data
structure. E.g.:
safe_foo:
// check preconditions for foo
.alt_entry fast_foo
fast_foo:
// body of foo, can assume preconditions.
The .alt_entry flag is also implicitly set on assembly aliases of the form:
a = b + C
where C is a non-zero constant, since these have the same effect as an
alt_entry symbol: they introduce a label that cannot be moved relative to the
preceding one. Setting the alt_entry flag on aliases of this form fixes
http://llvm.org/PR25381.

CodeView, like most other debug formats, represents the live range of a
variable so that debuggers might print them out.
They use a variety of records to represent how a particular variable
might be available (in a register, in a frame pointer, etc.) along with
a set of ranges where this debug information is relevant.
However, the format only allows us to use ranges which are limited to a
maximum of 0xF000 in size. This means that we need to split our debug
information into chunks of 0xF000.
Because the layout of code is not known until *very* late, we must use a
new fragment to record the information we need until we can know
*exactly* what the range is.

CodeView requires us to accurately describe the extent of the inlined
code. We did this by grabbing the next debug location in source order
and using *that* to denote where we stopped inlining. However, this is
not sufficient or correct in instances where there is no next debug
location or the next debug location belongs to the start of another
function.
To get this correct, use the end symbol of the function to denote the
last possible place the inlining could have stopped at.

This directive emits the binary annotations that describe line and code
deltas in inlined call sites. Single-stepping through inlined frames in
windbg now works.

If a target can only emit 8-bits data, we would loop in EmitValueImpl
since it will try to split a 32-bits data in 1 chunk of 32-bits.
No test since all current targets can emit 32bits at a time.

This support is _very_ rudimentary, just enough to get some basic data
into the CodeView debug section.
Left to do is:
- Use the combined opcodes to save space.
- Do something about code offsets.

This reverts commit r259117.
The LineInfo constructor is defined in the codeview library and we have

Adds a new family of .cv_* directives to LLVM's variant of GAS syntax:
- .cv_file: Similar to DWARF .file directives
- .cv_loc: Similar to the DWARF .loc directive, but starts with a
function id. CodeView line tables are emitted by function instead of
by compilation unit, so we needed an extra field to communicate this.
Rather than overloading the .loc direction further, we decided it was
better to have our own directive.
- .cv_stringtable: Emits the codeview string table at the current
position. Currently this just contains the filenames as
null-terminated strings.
- .cv_filechecksums: Emits the file checksum table for all files used
with .cv_file so far. There is currently no support for emitting
actual checksums, just filenames.
This moves the line table emission code down into the assembler. This
is in preparation for implementing the inlined call site line table
format. The inline line table format encoding algorithm requires knowing
the absolute code offsets, so it must run after the assembler has laid
out the code.

For historic reasons, the behavior of .align differs between targets.
Fortunately, there are alternatives, .p2align and .balign, which make the
interpretation of the parameter explicit, and which behave consistently across
targets.
This patch teaches MC to use .p2align instead of .align, so that people reading
code for multiple architectures don't have to remember which way each platform
does its .align directive.

Summary:
Support for R_MIPS_NONE allows us to parse MIPS16's usage of .reloc.
R_MIPS_32 was included to be able to better test the directive.
Targets can add their relocations by overriding MCAsmBackend::getFixupKind().

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.

After r244870 flush() will only compare two null pointers and return,

Small (really small!) C++ exception handling examples work on 32-bit x86
now.
This change disables the use of .seh_* directives in WinException when
CFI is not in use. It also uses absolute symbol references in the tables
instead of imagerel32 relocations.
Also fixes a cache invalidation bug in MMI personality classification.

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.

formatted_raw_ostream is a wrapper over another stream to add column and line
number tracking.
It is used only for asm printing.
This patch moves the its creation down to where we know we are printing
assembly. This has the following advantages:
* Simpler lifetime management: std::unique_ptr
* We don't compute column and line number of object files :-)

per-function subtarget.
Currently, code-gen passes the default or generic subtarget to the constructors
of MCInstPrinter subclasses (see LLVMTargetMachine::addPassesToEmitFile), which
enables some targets (AArch64, ARM, and X86) to change their instprinter's
behavior based on the subtarget feature bits. Since the backend can now use
different subtargets for each function, instprinter has to be changed to use the
per-function subtarget rather than the default subtarget.
This patch takes the first step towards enabling instprinter to change its
behavior based on the per-function subtarget. It adds a bit "PassSubtarget" to
AsmWriter which tells table-gen to pass a reference to MCSubtargetInfo to the
various print methods table-gen auto-generates.
I will follow up with changes to instprinters of AArch64, ARM, and X86.

Now that SmallString is a first-class citizen, most SmallString::str()
calls are not required. This patch removes a whole bunch of them, yet
there are lots more.
There are two use cases where str() is really needed:
1) To use one of StringRef member functions which is not available in
SmallString.
2) To convert to std::string, as StringRef implicitly converts while
SmallString do not. We may wish to change this, but it may introduce
ambiguity.

GCC does this for non-zero discriminators and since GCC doesn't produce
column info, that was the only place it comes up there. For LLVM, since
we can emit discriminators and/or column info, it makes more sense to
invert the condition and just test for changes in line number.
This should resolve at least some of the GDB 7.5 test suite failures
created by recent Clang changes that increase the location fidelity
(which, since Clang defaults to including column info on Linux by
default created a bunch of cases that confused GDB).
In theory we could do this better/differently by grouping actual source
statements together in a similar manner to the way lexical scopes are
handled but given that GDB isn't really in a position to consume that (&
users are probably somewhat used to different lines being different
'statements') this seems the safest and cheapest change. (I'm concerned
that doing this 'right' would bloat the debugloc data even further -
something Duncan's working hard to address)

Clang's static analyzer found several potential cases of undefined
behavior, use of un-initialized values, and potentially null pointer

When LLVM emits DWARF call frame information, it currently creates a local,
section-relative symbol in the code section, which is pointed to by a
relocation on the .eh_frame section. However, for C++ we emit some functions in
section groups, and the SysV ABI has some rules to make it easier to remove
these sections
(http://www.sco.com/developers/gabi/latest/ch4.sheader.html#section_group_rules):
A symbol table entry with STB_LOCAL binding that is defined relative to one
of a group's sections, and that is contained in a symbol table section that is
not part of the group, must be discarded if the group members are discarded.
References to this symbol table entry from outside the group are not allowed.
This means that we need to use the function symbol for the relocation, not a
temporary symbol.
There was a comment in the code claiming that the local symbol was used to
avoid creating a relocation, but a relocation must be created anyway as the
code and CFI are in different sections.
