It's useful for the memory managers that are allocating a section to know what the name of the section is.
At a minimum, this is useful for low-level debugging - it's customary for JITs to be able to tell you what
memory they allocated, and as part of any such dump, they should be able to tell you some meta-data about
what each allocation is for. This allows clients that supply their own memory managers to do this.
Additionally, we also envision the SectionName being useful for passing meta-data from within LLVM to an LLVM
client.
This changes both the C and C++ APIs, and all of the clients of those APIs within LLVM. I'm assuming that
it's safe to change the C++ API because that API is allowed to change. I'm assuming that it's safe to change
the C API because we haven't shipped the API in a release yet (LLVM 3.3 doesn't include the MCJIT memory
management C API).

Tests to follow.
PIC with small code model and EH frame handling will not work with multiple modules. There are also some rough edges to be smoothed out for remote target support.

EngineBuilder interface required a JITMemoryManager even if it was being used
to construct an MCJIT. But the MCJIT actually wants a RTDyldMemoryManager.
Consequently, the SectionMemoryManager, which is meant for MCJIT, derived
from the JITMemoryManager and then stubbed out a bunch of JITMemoryManager
methods that weren't relevant to the MCJIT.
This patch fixes the situation: it teaches the EngineBuilder that
RTDyldMemoryManager is a supertype of JITMemoryManager, and that it's
appropriate to pass a RTDyldMemoryManager instead of a JITMemoryManager if
we're using the MCJIT. This allows us to remove the stub methods from
SectionMemoryManager, and make SectionMemoryManager a direct subtype of
RTDyldMemoryManager.

missed in the first pass because the script didn't yet handle include
guards.
Note that the script is now able to handle all of these headers without
manual edits. =]

This patch adds the interface to expose events from MCJIT when an object is emitted or freed and implements the MCJIT functionality to send those events. The IntelJITEventListener implementation is left empty for now. It will be fleshed out in a future patch.

Prior to this patch RuntimeDyld attempted to re-apply relocations every time reassignSectionAddress was called (via MCJIT::mapSectionAddress). In addition to being inefficient and redundant, this led to a problem when a section was temporarily moved too far away from another section with a relative relocation referencing the section being moved. To fix this, I'm adding a new method (finalizeObject) which the client can call to indicate that it is finished rearranging section addresses so the relocations can safely be applied.

(and hopefully on Windows). The bots have been down most of the day
because of this, and it's not clear to me what all will be required to
fix it.
The commits started with r153205, then r153207, r153208, and r153221.
The first commit seems to be the real culprit, but I couldn't revert
a smaller number of patches.
When resubmitting, r153207 and r153208 should be folded into r153205,
they were simple build fixes.

1. Declare a virtual function getPointerToNamedFunction() in JITMemoryManager
2. Move the implementation of getPointerToNamedFunction() form JIT/MCJIT to DefaultJITMemoryManager.

The OptLevel is now redundant with the TargetMachine*.
And selectTarget() isn't really JIT-specific and could probably
get refactored into one of the lower level libraries.

In particular, into EngineBuilder. This should only impact
the private API between the EE and EB classes, not external
clients, since JITCtor and MCJITCtor are both protected members.

The JITMemory manager references LLVM IR constructs directly, while the
runtime Dyld works at a lower level and can handle objects which may not
originate from LLVM IR. Introduce a new layer for the memory manager to
handle the interface between them. For the MCJIT, this layer will be almost
entirely simply a call-through w/ translation between the IR objects and
symbol names.
llvm-svn: 128851
Support argument passing simple, common, prototypes directly. More
complicated scenarios will require building up a stub function, which the
MC-JIT isn't set up to handle yet.
Add Intercept.cpp, which is just a copy from ExecutionEngine/JIT for now,
to handle looking looking up external symbol names. This probably more
properly belongs as part of RuntimeDyld. It'll migrate there as things
flesh out more fully.

Lots of cleanup to make the interfaces prettier, use the JITMemoryManager,
handle multiple functions and modules, etc.. This gets far enough that
the MCJIT compiles and runs code, though.

Proof-of-concept code that code-gens a module to an in-memory MachO object.
This will be hooked up to a run-time dynamic linker library (see: llvm-rtdyld
for similarly conceptual work for that part) which will take the compiled
object and link it together with the rest of the system, providing back to the
JIT a table of available symbols which will be used to respond to the
getPointerTo*() queries.
