If a section is rw, it is irrelevant if the dynamic linker will write to
it or not.
It looks like llvm implemented this because gcc was doing it. It looks
like gcc implemented this in the hope that it would put all the
relocated items close together and speed up the dynamic linker.
There are two problem with this:
* It doesn't work. Both bfd and gold will map .data.rel to .data and
concatenate the input sections in the order they are seen.
* If we want a feature like that, it can be implemented directly in the
linker since it knowns where the dynamic relocations are.
llvm-svn: 253436
This adds reportError to MCContext, which can be used as an alternative to
reportFatalError when the assembler wants to try to continue processing the
rest of the file after the error is reported, so that all of the errors ina
file can be reported. It records the fact that an error was encountered, so we
can avoid emitting an object file if any errors occurred.
This patch doesn't add any uses of this function (a later patch will convert
most uses of reportFatalError to use it), but there is a small functional
change: we use the SourceManager to print the error message, even if we have a
null SMLoc. This means that we get a SourceManager-style message, with the file
and line information shown as <unknown>, rather than the "LLVM ERROR" style
used by report_fatal_error.
llvm-svn: 253327
The way prelink used to work was
* The compiler decides if a given section only has relocations that
are know to point to the same DSO. If so, it names it
.data.rel.ro.local<something>.
* The static linker puts all of these together.
* The prelinker program assigns addresses to each library and resolves
the local relocations.
There are many problems with this:
* It is incompatible with address space randomization.
* The information passed by the compiler is redundant. The linker
knows if a given relocation is in the same DSO or not. If could sort
by that if so desired.
* There are newer ways of speeding up DSO (gnu hash for example).
* Even if we want to implement this again in the compiler, the previous
implementation is pretty broken. It talks about relocations that are
"resolved by the static linker". If they are resolved, there are none
left for the prelinker. What one needs to track is if an expression
will require only dynamic relocations that point to the same DSO.
At this point it looks like the prelinker is an historical curiosity.
For example, fedora has retired it because it failed to build for two
releases
(http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/prelink.git/commit/?id=eb43100a8331d91c801ee3dcdb0a0bb9babfdc1f)
This patch removes support for it. That is, it stops printing the
".local" sections.

MCRelaxableFragment previously kept a copy of MCSubtargetInfo and
MCInst to enable re-encoding the MCInst later during relaxation. A copy
of MCSubtargetInfo (instead of a reference or pointer) was needed
because the feature bits could be modified by the parser.
This commit replaces the MCSubtargetInfo copy in MCRelaxableFragment
with a constant reference to MCSubtargetInfo. The copies of
MCSubtargetInfo are kept in MCContext, and the target parsers are now
responsible for asking MCContext to provide a copy whenever the feature
bits of MCSubtargetInfo have to be toggled.
With this patch, I saw a 4% reduction in peak memory usage when I
compiled verify-uselistorder.lto.bc using llc.

The existing behavior was correct on Darwin, which is probably the

Before this change, we would rewrite "align 8" to ".align 3" and then

Crashing is bad, m'kay? Fixing a 4 year old bug of my own creation.
Adding the testcase now which I should have added then which would have
long since caught this.
The problem is that printMessage() will display the diagnostic but not
set HadError to true, resulting in the assembler continuing on its way
and trying to create relocations for things that may not allow them or
otherwise get itself into trouble. Using the Error() helper function
here rather than calling printMessage() directly resolves this.

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.

Avoid marking some MCSymbols as used in MC/AsmParser.cpp when no uses
exist. This fixes a bug in parseAssignmentExpression() which
inadvertently sets IsUsed, thereby triggering:
"invalid re-assignment of non-absolute variable"
on otherwise valid code. No other functionality change intended.
The original version of this patch touched many calls to MCSymbol
accessors. On rafael's advice, I have stripped this patch down a bit.
As a follow-up, I intend to find the call sites which intentionally set
IsUsed and force them to do so explicitly.

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.

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.

Summary:
In an expression such as "(((a+b)+c)+d)", parseParenExpression() would only parse the "a+b)+c", which would result in an error later on in the parser.
This means that we can only parse one level of inner parentheses.
In order to fix this, I added a new function called parseParenExprOfDepth(), which parses a specified number of trailing parenthesis expressions
(except for the outermost parenthesis), and changed MipsAsmParser to use it in parseMemOffset instead of parseParenExpression().

According to the documentation, .thumb_set is 'the equivalent of a .set directive'.
We didn't have equivalent behaviour in terms of all the errors we could throw, for
example, when a symbol is redefined.
This change refactors parseAssignment so that it can be used by .set and .thumb_set
and implements tests for .thumb_set for all the errors thrown by that method.

Both MCStreamer and MCObjectStreamer were maintaining a current section
variable and they were slightly out of sync. I don't think this was observable,
but was inefficient and error prone.
Changing this requires a few cascading changes:
* SwitchSection has to call ChangeSection earlier for ChangeSection to see
the old section.
* With that change, ChangeSection cannot call EmitLabel, since during
ChangeSection we are still in the old section.
* When the object streamer requires a begin label, just reused the existing
generic support for begin labels instead of calling EmitLabel directly.

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.
