The layout_version attribute is pretty straightforward: use the layout
rules from version XYZ of MSVC when used like
struct __declspec(layout_version(XYZ)) S {};
The empty_bases attribute is more interesting. It tries to get the C++
empty base optimization to fire more often by tweaking the MSVC ABI
rules in subtle ways:
1. Disable the leading and trailing zero-sized object flags if a class
is marked __declspec(empty_bases) and is empty.
This means that given:
struct __declspec(empty_bases) A {};
struct __declspec(empty_bases) B {};
struct C : A, B {};
'C' will have size 1 and nvsize 0 despite not being annotated
__declspec(empty_bases).
2. When laying out virtual or non-virtual bases, disable the injection
of padding between classes if the most derived class is marked
__declspec(empty_bases).
This means that given:
struct A {};
struct B {};
struct __declspec(empty_bases) C : A, B {};
'C' will have size 1 and nvsize 0.
3. When calculating the offset of a non-virtual base, choose offset zero
if the most derived class is marked __declspec(empty_bases) and the
base is empty _and_ has an nvsize of 0.
Because of the ABI rules, this does not mean that empty bases
reliably get placed at offset 0!
For example:
struct A {};
struct B {};
struct __declspec(empty_bases) C : A, B { virtual ~C(); };
'C' will be pointer sized to account for the vfptr at offset 0.
'A' and 'B' will _not_ be at offset 0 despite being empty!
Instead, they will be located right after the vfptr.
This occurs due to the interaction betweeen non-virtual base layout
and virtual function pointer injection: injection occurs after the
nv-bases and shifts them down by the size of a pointer.

Previously, mergeable section's constructors did more than just
setting member variables; it split section contents into small
pieces. It is not always computationally cheap task because if
the section is a mergeable string section, it needs to scan the
entire section to split them by NUL characters.
If a section would be thrown away by GC, that cost ended up
being a waste of time. It is going to be larger problem if the
section is compressed -- the whole time to uncompress it and
split it up is going to be a waste.
Luckily, we can defer section splitting after GC. We just have
to remember which offsets are in use during GC and apply that later.
This patch implements it.

In r268693, we started requiring that SelectionDAGISel::Select return
void, but provided a default implementation that did just that by
calling into the old interface. Now that all targets have been
updated, we'll just remove the default implementation.

Summary: This needs to get in before anything is released concerning attribute. If the old name gets in the wild, then we are stuck with it forever. Putting it in its own diff should getting that part at least in fast.

.eh_frame_hdr assumes that there is only one .eh_frame and
ensures it by assertions. This patch makes .eh_frame a real
singleton object to simplify.

The exit-on-error flag on the many_args1.ll test is needed to avoid an
unreachable in BPFTargetLowering::LowerCall. We can also avoid it by ignoring
any superfluous arguments to the call (i.e. any arguments after the first 5).
Fixes PR27766.

v2 of r270419
llvm-svn: 270440
This patch reverts r270419 because it broke a lot of buildbots,
mostly Windows. We'd like help in investigating the issues, but
for now, it should stay out.

This code should have been with the previous check-in (r270417) and prevents the DelaySlotFiller pass being utilized in functions where the erratum fix has been applied as this will break the run-time code.
llvm-svn: 270418
Due to an erratum in some versions of LEON, we must insert a NOP after any LD or LDF instruction to ensure the processor has time to load the value correctly before using it. This pass will implement that erratum fix.
The code will have no effect for other Sparc, but non-LEON processors.

Before this patch we bailed if a required invariant load was potentially
overwritten. However, now we will optimistically assume it is actually
invariant and, to this end, restrict the valid parameter space as well as the
execution context with regards to potential overwrites of the location.
llvm-svn: 270416
Since the base pointer of a possibly aliasing pointer might not alias
with any other pointer it (the base pointer) might not be tagged as
"required invariant". However, we need it do be in order to compare
the accessed addresses of the derived (possibly aliasing) pointer.
This patch also tries to clean up the load hoisting a little bit.
