- I haven't really tried to find the "right" way to store the fixups or apply
them, yet. This works, but isn't particularly elegant or fast.
- Still no evaluation support, so we don't actually ever not turn a fixup into
a relocation entry.

should be forced to 32-bits (.long) even on 64-bit architectures. Darwin wants
these bits to be 64-bits (.quad). However, other platforms may disagree.
This is just the info right now and is part of a work-in-progress which needs
this. We'll add the actual *use* of this soon.

- The indirect table itself isn't being filled in yet.
- This isn't factored properly and is rather FIXMEd, but at the moment I'm more
focused on figuring out what it needs to do.
llvm-svn: 79910
- This is mostly complete, the main thing missing is .indirect_symbol support
(which would be straight-forward, except that the way it is implemented in
'as' makes getting an exact .o match interesting).
llvm-svn: 79899
- Honor .globl.
- Set symbol type and section correctly ('nm' now works), and order symbols
appropriately.
- Take care to the string table so that the .o matches 'as' exactly (for ease
of testing).
llvm-svn: 79740
- The only .s syntax this honors right now is emitting labels, and some parts
of the symbol table generation are wrong or faked.
- This is enough to get nm to report such symbols... incorrectly, but still.
Also, fixed byte emission to extend the previous fragment if possible.
llvm-svn: 79739
(external was really undefined and there wasn't an explicit representation for
absolute symbols).
- This still needs some cleanup to how the absolute "pseudo" section is dealt
with, but I haven't figured out the nicest approach yet.
llvm-svn: 79733
- Together these form the (Mach-O) back end of the assembler.
- MCAssembler is the actual assembler backend, which is designed to have a
reasonable API. This will eventually grow to support multiple object file
implementations, but for now its Mach-O/i386 only.
- MCMachOStreamer adapts the MCStreamer "actions" API to the MCAssembler API,
e.g. converting the various directives into fragments, managing state like
the current section, and so on.
- llvm-mc will use the new backend via '-filetype=obj', which may eventually
be, but is not yet, since I hear that people like assemblers which actually
assemble.
- The only thing that works at the moment is changing sections. For the time
being I have a Python Mach-O dumping tool in test/scripts so this stuff can
be easily tested, eventually I expect to replace this with a real LLVM tool.
- More doxyments to come.
I assume that since this stuff doesn't touch any of the things which are part of
2.6 that it is ok to put this in not so long before the freeze, but if someone
objects let me know, I can pull it.

MCAsmStreamer. Based on this, eliminate the current section from AsmPrinter.
While I'm at it, clean up the last of the horrible "switch to null section" stuff
and add an assert. This change is in preparation for completely eliminating
asmprinter::switchtosection.
llvm-svn: 79324
doing it directly. This requires const'izing a bunch of stuff that
took sections, but this seems like the right semantic thing to do:
emitting a label to a section shouldn't mutate the MCSection object
itself, for example.
llvm-svn: 79227
specific printer (this only works on x86, for now).
- This makes it possible to do some correctness checking of the parsing and
matching, since we can compare the results of 'as' on the original input, to
those of 'as' on the output from llvm-mc.
- In theory, we could now have an easy ATT -> Intel syntax converter. :)

instead of syntactically as a string. This means that it keeps track of the
segment, section, flags, etc directly and asmprints them in the right format.
This also includes parsing and validation support for llvm-mc and
"attribute(section)", so we should now start getting errors about invalid
section attributes from the compiler instead of the assembler on darwin.
Still todo:
1) Uniquing of darwin mcsections
2) Move all the Darwin stuff out to MCSectionMachO.[cpp|h]
3) there are a few FIXMEs, for example what is the syntax to get the
S_GB_ZEROFILL segment type?
llvm-svn: 78547
2. Move section switch printing to MCSection virtual method which takes a
TAI. This eliminates textual formatting stuff from TLOF.
3. Eliminate SwitchToSectionDirective, getSectionFlagsAsString, and
TLOFELF::AtIsCommentChar.
llvm-svn: 78510
should have no state that is specific to particular globals in the
section. In this case, it means the removal of the "isWeak" and
"ExplicitSection" bits. MCSection uses the new form of SectionKind.
To handle isWeak, I introduced a new SectionInfo class, which is
SectionKind + isWeak, and it is used by the part of the code generator
that does classification of a specific global.
The ExplicitSection disappears. It is moved onto MCSection as a new
"IsDirective" bit. Since the Name of a section is either a section
or directive, it makes sense to keep this bit in MCSection. Ultimately
the creator of MCSection should canonicalize (e.g.) .text to whatever
the actual section is.

- Uses MCAsmToken::getIdentifier which returns the (sub)string representing the
meaningfull contents a string or identifier token.
- Directives aren't done yet.
llvm-svn: 77739
the parsing of the .dump and .load should be done in the assembly parser and
not have any need for an MCStreamer API. Changed the code for now so these
just produce an error saying these specific directives are not yet implemented
since they are likely no longer used and may never need to be implemented.
llvm-svn: 76462
allowed to be undefined when the expression is seen, we cannot enforce the
same-section requirement until the entire assembly file has been seen.
llvm-svn: 74565
- For example, we diagnose errors on:
--
a:
a = 10
--
- For now we reject code like:
--
.long a
a = 10
--
which "as" accepts (on Darwin).

implementation. The idea is that we want asmprinting to
work by converting MachineInstrs into a new MCInst class,
then the per-instruction asmprinter works on MCInst. MCInst
and the new asmprinters will not depend on most of the
llvm code generators. This allows building diassemblers
that don't link in the whole llvm code generator. This is
step #1 of many.
