Summary:
Many directives are unavailable, and support for others may be limited.
This first draft has preliminary support for:
- conditional directives (including errors),
- data allocation (unsigned types up to 8 bytes, and ALIGN),
- equates/variables (numeric and text),
- and procedure directives (without parameters),
as well as COMMENT, ECHO, INCLUDE, INCLUDELIB, PUBLIC, and EXTERN. Text variables (aka text macros) are expanded in-place wherever the identifier occurs.
We deliberately ignore all ml.exe processor directives.
Prominent features not yet supported:
- structs
- macros (both procedures and functions)
- procedures (with specified parameters)
- substitution & expansion operators
Conditional directives are complicated by the fact that "ifdef rax" is a valid way to check if a file is being assembled for a 64-bit x86 processor; we add support for "ifdef <register>" in general, which requires adding a tryParseRegister method to all MCTargetAsmParsers. (Some targets require backtracking in the non-register case.)

This rule has been implemented by GNU as https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2020-02/msg00028.html (binutils >= 2.35)
It allows us to simplify
```
.section .foo,"o",foo,unique,0
.section .foo,"o",bar,unique,1 # different section
```
to
```
.section .foo,"o",foo
.section .foo,"o",bar # different section
```
We consider the two `.foo` different even if the linked-to symbols foo and bar
are defined in the same section. This is a deliberate choice so that we don't
need to know the section where foo and bar are defined beforehand.

Pad macho section data to pointer size bytes, so that relocation
table and symbol table following section data will be pointer size
aligned.
Patch by pguo.
Printing floating point number in decimal is inconvenient for humans.
Verbose asm output will print out floating point values in comments, it
helps.
But in lots of cases, users still need additional work to covert the
decimal back to hex or binary to check the bit patterns,
especially when there are small precision difference.
Hexadecimal form is one of the supported form in LLVM IR, and easier for
debugging.
This patch try to print all FP constant in hex form instead.

"linked-to section" is used by the ELF spec. By analogy, "linked-to
symbol" is a good name for the signature symbol. The word "linked-to"
implies a directed edge and makes it clear its relation with "sh_link",
while one can argue that "associated" means an undirected edge.
Also, combine tests and add precise SMLoc to improve diagnostics.

The AIX assembler .space directive can't take a second non-zero argument to fill

This is how it should've been and brings it more in line with
std::string_view. There should be no functional change here.
This is mostly mechanical from a custom clang-tidy check, with a lot of
manual fixups. It uncovers a lot of minor inefficiencies.
This doesn't actually modify StringRef yet, I'll do that in a follow-up.
Summary:
Previously, we would erroneously turn %pcrel_lo(label), where label has
a %pcrel_hi against a weak symbol, into %pcrel_lo(label + offset), as
evaluatePCRelLo would believe the target independent logic was going to
fold it. Moreover, even if that were fixed, shouldForceRelocation lacks
an MCAsmLayout and thus cannot evaluate the %pcrel_hi fixup to a value
and check the symbol, so we would then erroneously constant-fold the
%pcrel_lo whilst leaving the %pcrel_hi intact. After D72197, this same
sequence also occurs for symbols with global binding, which is triggered
in real-world code.
Instead, as discussed in D71978, we introduce a new FKF_IsTarget flag to
avoid these kinds of issues. All the resolution logic happens in one
place, with no coordination required between RISCAsmBackend and
RISCVMCExpr to ensure they implement the same logic twice. Although the
implementation of %pcrel_hi can be left as target independent, we make
it target dependent to ensure that they are handled identically to
%pcrel_lo, otherwise we risk one of them being constant folded but the
other being preserved. This also allows us to properly support fixup
pairs where the instructions are in different fragments.

Summary:
We create a number of standard types of control sections in multiple places for
things like the function descriptors, external references and the TOC anchor
among others, so it is possible for their properties to be defined
inconsistently in different places. This refactor moves their creation and
properties into functions in the TargetLoweringObjectFile class hierarchy, where
functions for retrieving various special types of sections typically seem
to reside.
Note: There is one case in PPCISelLowering which is specific to function entry
points which we don't address since we don't have access to the TLOF there.

When compiling position-independent executables, we now use
DW_EH_PE_pcrel | DW_EH_PE_sdata4. However, the MIPS ABI does not define a
64-bit PC-relative ELF relocation so we cannot use sdata8 for the large
code model case. When using the large code model, we fall back to the
previous behaviour of generating absolute relocations.
With this change clang-generated .o files can be linked by LLD without
having to pass -Wl,-z,notext (which creates text relocations).
This is simpler than the approach used by ld.bfd, which rewrites the
.eh_frame section to convert absolute relocations into relative references.
I saw in D13104 that apparently ld.bfd did not accept pc-relative relocations
for MIPS ouput at some point. However, I also checked that recent ld.bfd
can process the clang-generated .o files so this no longer seems true.

For a target symbol defined in the same section, currently we don't emit
a relocation if VariantKind is VK_None (with few exceptions like RISC-V
relaxation), while GNU as emits one. This causes program behavior
differences with and without -ffunction-sections, and can break intended
symbol interposition in a -shared link.
```
.globl foo
foo:
call foo # no relocation. On other targets, may be written as b foo, etc
call bar # a relocation if bar is in another section (e.g. -ffunction-sections)
call foo@plt # a relocation
```
Unify these cases by always emitting a relocation. If we ever want to
optimize `call foo` in -shared links, we should emit a STB_LOCAL alias
and call via the alias.
ARM/thumb2-beq-fixup.s: we now emit a relocation to global_thumb_fn as GNU as does.
X86/Inputs/align-branch-64-2.s: we now emit R_X86_64_PLT32 to foo as GNU does.
ELF/relax.s: rewrite the test as target-in-same-section.s .
We omitted relocations to `global` and now emit R_X86_64_PLT32.
Note, GNU as does not emit a relocation for `jmp global` (maybe its own
bug). Our new behavior is compatible except `jmp global`.

`APFLoat::convertFromString` returns `Expected` result, which must be
"checked" if the LLVM_ENABLE_ABI_BREAKING_CHECKS preprocessor flag is
set.
To mark an `Expected` result as "checked" we must consume the `Error`
within.
In many cases, we are only interested in knowing if an error occured,
without the need to examine the error info. This is achieved, easily,
with the `errorToBool()` API.
As discussed heavily in the original review (D70157), there's a need for the compiler to be able to selective suppress padding (either nop or prefix) to respect assumptions about the meaning of labels and instructions in generated code.
Rather than wait for syntax to be finalized - which appears to be a very slow process - this patch focuses on the compiler use case and *only* worries about the integrated assembler. To my knowledge, this covers all cases mentioned to date for clang/JIT support.
For testing purposes, I wired it up so that if the integrated assembler was using autopadding for branch alignment (e.g. enabled at command line) then the textual assembly output would contain a comment for each location where padding was enabled or disabled. This seemed like the least painful choice overall.
Note that the result of this patch effective disables the jcc errata mitigation for many constructs (statepoints, implicit null checks, xray, etc...) which is non ideal. It is at least *correct* and should allow us to enable the mitigation for the compiler. Once that's done, and a few other items are worked through, we probably want to come back to this an explore a bundling based approach instead so that we can pad instructions while keeping labels in the right place.

Silence (clang/MSVC) static analyzer warnings that the fragment data may either write out of bounds of the local array or reference uninitialized data.
printInst prints a branch/call instruction as `b offset` (there are many
variants on various targets) instead of `b address`.
It is a convention to use address instead of offset in most external
symbolizers/disassemblers. This difference makes `llvm-objdump -d`
output unsatisfactory.
Add `uint64_t Address` to printInst(), so that it can pass the argument to
printInstruction(). `raw_ostream &OS` is moved to the last to be
consistent with other print* methods.
The next step is to pass `Address` to printInstruction() (generated by
tablegen from the instruction set description). We can gradually migrate
targets to print addresses instead of offsets.
In any case, downstream projects which don't know `Address` can pass 0 as
the argument.

sizeof(MCFragment) does not change, but some if its subclasses do, e.g.
on a 64-bit platform,
sizeof(MCEncodedFragment) decreases from 64 to 56,
sizeof(MCDataFragment) decreases from 224 to 216.
This simplifies the generic interface and also makes SHF_ARM_PURECODE
more robust (fixes a TODO). Inspecting MCDataFragment contents covers
more cases than MCObjectStreamer::EmitBytes.
clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenModule performs the -mpie-copy-relocations
check and sets dso_local on applicable global variables. We don't need
to duplicate the work in TargetMachine shouldAssumeDSOLocal.

Summary:
Amend MS offset operator implementation, to more closely fit with its MS counterpart:
1. InlineAsm: evaluate non-local source entities to their (address) location
2. Provide a mean with which one may acquire the address of an assembly label via MS syntax, rather than yielding a memory reference (i.e. "offset asm_label" and "$asm_label" should be synonymous
3. address PR32530
Based on http://llvm.org/D37461
Fix broken test where the break appears unrelated.
- Set up appropriate memory-input rewrites for variable references.
- Intel-dialect assembly printing now correctly handles addresses by adding "offset".
- Pass offsets as immediate operands (using "r" constraint for offsets of locals).

If we have references to the same extern_weak in multiple objects,
all of them would generate external symbols with the same name. Make
them static to avoid duplicate definitions; nothing should need to
refer to this symbol outside of the current object.
GCC/binutils seems to handle the same by not using a fixed string
for the ".default" suffix, but instead using the name of some other
defined external symbol from the same object (which is supposed to
be unique among objects unless there's other duplicate definitions).

WARNING: If you're looking at this patch because you're looking for a full
performace mitigation of the Intel JCC Erratum, this is not it!
This is a preliminary patch on the patch towards mitigating the performance
regressions caused by Intel's microcode update for Jump Conditional Code
Erratum. For context, see:
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000055650.html
The patch adds the required assembler infrastructure and command line options
needed to exercise the logic for INTERNAL TESTING. These are NOT public flags,
and should not be used for anything other than LLVM's own testing/debugging
purposes. They are likely to change both in spelling and meaning.
WARNING: This patch is knowingly incorrect in some cornercases. We need, and
do not yet provide, a mechanism to selective enable/disable the padding.
Conversation on this will continue in parellel with work on extending this
infrastructure to support prefix padding.
The goal here is to have the assembler align specific instructions such that
they neither cross or end at a 32 byte boundary. The impacted instructions are:
a. Conditional jump.
b. Fused conditional jump.
c. Unconditional jump.
d. Indirect jump.
e. Ret.
f. Call.
The new options for llvm-mc are:
-x86-align-branch-boundary=NUM aligns branches within NUM byte boundary.
-x86-align-branch=TYPE[+TYPE...] specifies types of branches to align.
A new MCFragment type, MCBoundaryAlignFragment, is added, which may emit
NOP to align the fused/unfused branch.
alignBranchesBegin inserts MCBoundaryAlignFragment before instructions,
alignBranchesEnd marks the end of the branch to be aligned,
relaxBoundaryAlign grows or shrinks sizes of NOP to align the target branch.
Nop padding is disabled when the instruction may be rewritten by the linker,
such as TLS Call.

(This commit restores the original branch (4272372c57) and applies an
additional change dropped from the original in a bad merge. This change
should address the previous bot failures. Both changes reviewed by pete.)
Summary:
This commit builds upon Derek Schuff's 2014 commit for attaching labels to
existing fragments ( Diff Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D5915 )
When temporary labels appear ahead of a fragment, MCObjectStreamer will
track the temporary label symbol in a "Pending Labels" list. Labels are
associated with fragments when a real fragment arrives; otherwise, an empty
data fragment will be created if the streamer's section changes or if the
stream finishes.
This commit moves the "Pending Labels" list into each MCStream, so that
this label-fragment matching process is resilient to section changes. If
the streamer emits a label in a new section, switches to another section to
do other work, then switches back to the first section and emits a
fragment, that initial label will be associated with this new fragment.
Labels will only receive empty data fragments in the case where no other
fragment exists for that section.
The downstream effects of this can be seen in Mach-O relocations. The
previous approach could produce local section relocations and external
symbol relocations for the same data in an object file, and this mix of
relocation types resulted in problems in the ld64 Mach-O linker. This
commit ensures relocations triggered by temporary labels are consistent.
