Currently, many profiling tests on Solaris FAIL like
Command Output (stderr):

__llvm_profile_register_names_function /tmp/lit_tmp_Nqu4eh/infinite_loop-9dc638.o

Solaris 11.4 ld supports the non-standard GNU ld extension of adding
__start_SECNAME and __stop_SECNAME labels to sections whose names are valid
as C identifiers. Given that we already use Solaris 11.4-only features
like ld -z gnu-version-script-compat and fully working .preinit_array
support in compiler-rt, we don't need to worry about older versions of
Solaris ld.
The patch documents that support (although the comment in
lib/Transforms/Instrumentation/InstrProfiling.cpp
(needsRuntimeRegistrationOfSectionRange) is quite cryptic what it's
actually about), and adapts the affected testcase not to expect the
alternativeq __llvm_profile_register_functions and __llvm_profile_init.
It fixes all affected tests.
Tested on amd64-pc-solaris2.11.

Summary:
The motivating use case is eliminating duplicate profile data registered
for the same inline function in two object files. Before this change,
users would observe multiple symbol definition errors with VC link, but
links with LLD would succeed.
Users (Mozilla) have reported that PGO works well with clang-cl and LLD,
but when using LLD without this static registration, we would get into a
"relocation against a discarded section" situation. I'm not sure what
happens in that situation, but I suspect that duplicate, unused profile
information was retained. If so, this change will reduce the size of
such binaries with LLD.
Now, Windows uses static registration and is in line with all the other
platforms.

This reverts 295092 (re-applies 295084), with a fix for dangling
references from the array of coverage names passed down from frontends.
I missed this in my initial testing because I only checked test/Profile,
and not test/CoverageMapping as well.
Original commit message:
The profile name variables passed to counter increment intrinsics are dead
after we emit the finalized name data in __llvm_prf_nm. However, we neglect to
erase these name variables. This causes huge size increases in the
__TEXT,__const section as well as slowdowns when linker dead stripping is
disabled. Some affected projects are so massive that they fail to link on
Darwin, because only the small code model is supported.
Fix the issue by throwing away the name constants as soon as we're done with
them.

On Darwin, marking a section as "regular,live_support" means that a
symbol in the section should only be kept live if it has a reference to
something that is live. Otherwise, the linker is free to dead-strip it.
Turn this functionality on for the __llvm_prf_data section.
This means that counters and data associated with dead functions will be
removed from dead-stripped binaries. This will result in smaller
profiles and binaries, and should speed up profile collection.
Tested with check-profile, llvm-lit test/tools/llvm-{cov,profdata}, and
check-llvm.

Summary:
The PS4 linker seems to handle this fine.
Hi David, it seems that indeed most ELF linkers support
__{start,stop}_SECNAME, as our proprietary linker does as well.
This follows the pattern of r250679 w.r.t. the testing.
Maggie, Phillip, Paul: I've tested this with the PS4 SDK 3.5 toolchain
prerelease and it seems to work fine.

This reduces sizes of instrumented object files, final binaries,
process images, and raw profile data.
The format of the indexed profile data remain the same.

Profile symbols have long prefixes which waste space and creating pressure for linker.
This patch shortens the prefixes to minimal length without losing verbosity.

This change introduces an instrumentation intrinsic instruction for
value profiling purposes, the lowering of the instrumentation intrinsic
and raw reader updates. The raw profile data files for llvm-profdata
testing are updated.

On Linux, the profile runtime can use __start_SECTNAME and __stop_SECTNAME
symbols defined by the linker to locate the start and end location of
a named section (with C name). This eliminates the need for instrumented
binary to call __llvm_profile_register_function during start-up time.

Similar to gep (r230786) and load (r230794) changes.
Similar migration script can be used to update test cases, which
successfully migrated all of LLVM and Polly, but about 4 test cases
needed manually changes in Clang.
(this script will read the contents of stdin and massage it into stdout
- wrap it in the 'apply.sh' script shown in previous commits + xargs to
apply it over a large set of test cases)

Introduce the ``llvm.instrprof_increment`` intrinsic and the
``-instrprof`` pass. These provide the infrastructure for writing
counters for profiling, as in clang's ``-fprofile-instr-generate``.
The implementation of the instrprof pass is ported directly out of the
CodeGenPGO classes in clang, and with the followup in clang that rips
that code out to use these new intrinsics this ends up being NFC.
Doing the instrumentation this way opens some doors in terms of
improving the counter performance. For example, this will make it
simple to experiment with alternate lowering strategies, and allows us
to try handling profiling specially in some optimizations if we want
to.
Finally, this drastically simplifies the frontend and puts all of the
lowering logic in one place.
