--only-keep-debug produces a debug file as the output that only
preserves contents of sections useful for debugging purposes (the
binutils implementation preserves SHT_NOTE and non-SHF_ALLOC sections),
by changing their section types to SHT_NOBITS and rewritting file
offsets.
See https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Separate-Debug-Files.html
The intended use case is:
```
llvm-objcopy --only-keep-debug a a.dbg
llvm-objcopy --strip-debug a b
llvm-objcopy --add-gnu-debuglink=a.dbg b
```
The current layout algorithm is incapable of deleting contents and
shrinking segments, so it is not suitable for implementing the
functionality.
This patch adds a new algorithm which assigns sh_offset to sections
first, then modifies p_offset/p_filesz of program headers. It bears a
resemblance to lld/ELF/Writer.cpp.

Summary: GNU objcopy accepts the --wildcard flag to allow wildcard matching on symbol-related flags. (Note: it's implicitly true for section flags).
The basic syntax is to allow *, ?, \, and [] which work similarly to how they work in a shell. Additionally, starting a wildcard with ! causes that wildcard to prevent it from matching a flag.
Use an updated GlobPattern in libSupport to handle these patterns. It does not fully match the `fnmatch` used by GNU objcopy since named character classes (e.g. `[[:digit:]]`) are not supported, but this should support most existing use cases (mostly just `*` is what's used anyway).

GNU objcopy documents that -B is only useful with architecture-less
input (i.e. "binary" or "ihex"). After D67144, -O defaults to -I, and
-B is essentially a NOP.
* If -O is binary/ihex, GNU objcopy ignores -B.
* If -O is elf*, -B provides the e_machine field in GNU objcopy.
So to convert a blob to an ELF, `-I binary -B i386:x86-64 -O elf64-x86-64` has to be specified.
`-I binary -B i386:x86-64 -O elf64-x86-64` creates an ELF with its
e_machine field set to EM_NONE in GNU objcopy, but a regular x86_64 ELF
in elftoolchain elfcopy. Follow the elftoolchain approach (ignoring -B)
to simplify code. Users that expect their command line portable should

Summary:
Commit r366897 introduced the possibility to set a variable from an
expression, such as [[#VAR2:VAR1+3]]. While introducing this feature, it
introduced extra logic to allow using such a variable on the same line
later on. Unfortunately that extra logic is flawed as it relies on a
mapping from variable to expression defining it when the mapping is from
variable definition to expression. This flaw causes among other issues
PR42896.
This commit avoids the problem by forbidding all use of a variable
defined on the same line, and removes the now useless logic. Redesign
will be done in a later commit because it will require some amount of
refactoring first for the solution to be clean. One example is the need
for some sort of transaction mechanism to set a variable temporarily and
from an expression and rollback if the CHECK pattern does not match so
that diagnostics show the right variable values.

[2]: Latency
[3]: RThroughput
[4]: MayLoad
[5]: MayStore

1 4 1.00 4 c5 e3 7c e3 vhaddps %xmm3, %xmm3, %xmm4
In this example, column Encoding Size is the size in bytes of the instruction
encoding. Column Encodings reports the actual instruction encodings as byte
sequences in hex (objdump style).
The computation of encodings is done by a utility class named mca::CodeEmitter.
In future, I plan to expose the CodeEmitter to the instruction builder, so that
information about instruction encoding sizes can be used by the simulator. That
would be a first step towards simulating the throughput from the decoders in the
hardware frontend.

Summary:
This patch is part of a patch series to add support for FileCheck

numeric expression to either be a variable definition or a numeric
expression to try to match.
This commit allows a numeric variable to be set to the result of the
evaluation of a numeric expression after it has been matched
successfully. When it happens, the variable is allowed to be used on
the same line since its value is known at match time.
It also makes use of this possibility to reuse the parsing code to
parse a command-line definition by crafting a mirror string of the
-D option with the equal sign replaced by a colon sign, e.g. for option
'-D#NUMVAL=10' it creates the string
'-D#NUMVAL=10 (parsed as [[#NUMVAL:10]])' where the numeric expression
is parsed to define NUMVAL. This result in a few tests needing updating
for the location diagnostics on top of the tests for the new feature.
It also enables empty numeric expression which match any number without
defining a variable. This is done here rather than in commit #5 of the
patch series because it requires to dissociate automatic regex insertion
in RegExStr from variable definition which would make commit #5 even
bigger than it already is.

Sphinx allows for definitions of command-line options using
`.. option <name>` and references to those options via `:option:<name>`.
However, it looks like there is no scoping of these options by default,
meaning that links can end up pointing to incorrect documents. See for
example the llvm-mca document, which contains references to -o that,
prior to this patch, pointed to a different document. What's worse is
that these links appear to be non-deterministic in which one is picked
(on my machine, some references end up pointing to opt, whereas on the
live docs, they point to llvm-dwarfdump, for example).
The fix is to add the .. program <name> tag. This essentially namespaces
the options (definitions and references) to the named program, ensuring
that the links are kept correct.

There were a number of issues with the llvm-readobj documentation. The
following points were raised in https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42255,
and have been fixed in this patch:
1. The description section claimed "The tool and its output is
primarily designed for use in FileCheck-based tests" which is not
really the case any more.
2. The documentation used single-dash long options for option names,
but references in the help text to other options exclusively used
double-dashes. Fixed by standardising on double-dashes for all
long-form options.
3. The majority of options available and in the help text were not
present in the documentation. This patch adds them.
4. Several aliases, both long and short, were missing, e.g. --relocs.
Additionally, this patch improves the documentation by:
1. Splitting the options into categories based on the file format they
are specific to.
2. Updating the Exit Status section to correctly mention that errors
lead to a non-zero exit code.
3. Adding a See Also section referencing other similar LLVM tools.
4. Improving/correcting some of the descriptions of options that did
not quite match up with what llvm-readobj does.

Summary:
Terminology introduced by [[#]] blocks is confusing and does not
integrate well with existing terminology.
First, variables referred by [[]] blocks are called "pattern variables"
while the text a CHECK directive needs to match is called a "CHECK
pattern". This is inconsistent with variables in [[#]] blocks since
[[#]] blocks are also found in CHECK pattern yet those variables are
called "numeric variable".
Second, the replacing of both [[]] and [[#]] blocks by the value of the
variable or expression they contain is represented by a
FileCheckPatternSubstitution class. The naming refers to being a
substitution in a CHECK pattern but could be wrongly understood as being
a substitution of a pattern variable.
Third and lastly, comments use "numeric expression" to refer both to the
[[#]] blocks as well as to the numeric expressions these blocks contain
which get evaluated at match time.
This patch solves these confusions by
- calling variables in [[]] and [[#]] blocks as string and numeric
variables respectively;
- referring to [[]] and [[#]] as substitution *blocks*, with the former
being a string substitution block and the latter a numeric
substitution block;
- calling [[]] and [[#]] blocks to be replaced by the value of a
variable or expression they contain a substitution (as opposed to
definition when these blocks are used to defined a variable), with the
former being a string substitution and the latter a numeric
substitution;
- renaming the FileCheckPatternSubstitution as a FileCheckSubstitution
class with FileCheckStringSubstitution and
FileCheckNumericSubstitution subclasses;
- restricting the use of "numeric expression" to refer to the expression
that is evaluated in a numeric substitution.
While numeric substitution blocks only support numeric substitutions of
numeric expressions at the moment there are plans to augment numeric
substitution blocks to support numeric definitions as well as both a
numeric definition and numeric substitution in the same numeric
substitution block.

This patch is part of a patch series to add support for FileCheck

This commit introduces a new syntax to express a relation a numeric
value in the input text must have with the line number of a given CHECK
pattern: [[#<@LINE numeric expression>]]. Further commits build on that
to express relations between several numeric values in the input text.
To help with naming, regular variables are renamed into pattern
variables and old @LINE expression syntax is referred to as legacy
numeric expression.
Compared to existing @LINE expressions, this new syntax allow arbitrary
spacing between the component of the expression. It offers otherwise the
same functionality but the commit serves to introduce some of the data
structure needed to support more general numeric expressions.

It makes more sense to print out the number of micro opcodes that are issued
every cycle rather than the number of instructions issued per cycle.
This behavior is also consistent with the dispatch-stats: numbers from the two
views can now be easily compared.
llvm-svn: 357919
Summary:
This is an alternative to D59539.
Let's suppose we have measured 4 different opcodes, and got: `0.5`, `1.0`, `1.5`, `2.0`.
Let's suppose we are using `-analysis-clustering-epsilon=0.5`.
By default now we will start processing the `0.5` point, find that `1.0` is it's neighbor, add them to a new cluster.
Then we will notice that `1.5` is a neighbor of `1.0` and add it to that same cluster.
Then we will notice that `2.0` is a neighbor of `1.5` and add it to that same cluster.
So all these points ended up in the same cluster.
This may or may not be a correct implementation of dbscan clustering algorithm.
But this is rather horribly broken for the reasons of comparing the clusters with the LLVM sched data.
Let's suppose all those opcodes are currently in the same sched cluster.
If i specify `-analysis-inconsistency-epsilon=0.5`, then no matter
the LLVM values this cluster will **never** match the LLVM values,
and thus this cluster will **always** be displayed as inconsistent.
The solution is obviously to split off some of these opcodes into different sched cluster.
But how do i do that? Out of 4 opcodes displayed in the inconsistency report,
which ones are the "bad ones"? Which ones are the most different from the checked-in data?
I'd need to go in to the `.yaml` and look it up manually.
The trivial solution is to, when creating clusters, don't use the full dbscan algorithm,
but instead "pick some unclustered point, pick all unclustered points that are it's neighbor,
put them all into a new cluster, repeat". And just so as it happens, we can arrive
at that algorithm by not performing the "add neighbors of a neighbor to the cluster" step.
But that won't work well once we teach analyze mode to operate in on-1D mode
(i.e. on more than a single measurement type at a time), because the clustering would
depend on the order of the measurements.
Instead, let's just create a single cluster per opcode, and put all the points of that opcode into said cluster.
And simultaneously check that every point in that cluster is a neighbor of every other point in the cluster,
and if they are not, the cluster (==opcode) is unstable.
This is //yet another// step to bring me closer to being able to continue cleanup of bdver2 sched model..

This patch adds a new flag named -bottleneck-analysis to print out information
about throughput bottlenecks.
MCA knows how to identify and classify dynamic dispatch stalls. However, it
doesn't know how to analyze and highlight kernel bottlenecks. The goal of this
patch is to teach MCA how to correlate increases in backend pressure to backend
stalls (and therefore, the loss of throughput).
From a Scheduler point of view, backend pressure is a function of the scheduler
buffer usage (i.e. how the number of uOps in the scheduler buffers changes over
time). Backend pressure increases (or decreases) when there is a mismatch
between the number of opcodes dispatched, and the number of opcodes issued in
the same cycle. Since buffer resources are limited, continuous increases in
backend pressure would eventually leads to dispatch stalls. So, there is a
strong correlation between dispatch stalls, and how backpressure changed over
time.
This patch teaches how to identify situations where backend pressure increases
due to:
- unavailable pipeline resources.
- data dependencies.
Data dependencies may delay execution of instructions and therefore increase the
time that uOps have to spend in the scheduler buffers. That often translates to
an increase in backend pressure which may eventually lead to a bottleneck.
Contention on pipeline resources may also delay execution of instructions, and
lead to a temporary increase in backend pressure.
Internally, the Scheduler classifies instructions based on whether register /
memory operands are available or not.
An instruction is marked as "ready to execute" only if data dependencies are
fully resolved.
Every cycle, the Scheduler attempts to execute all instructions that are ready
to execute. If an instruction cannot execute because of unavailable pipeline
resources, then the Scheduler internally updates a BusyResourceUnits mask with
the ID of each unavailable resource.
ExecuteStage is responsible for tracking changes in backend pressure. If backend
pressure increases during a cycle because of contention on pipeline resources,
then ExecuteStage sends a "backend pressure" event to the listeners.
That event would contain information about instructions delayed by resource
pressure, as well as the BusyResourceUnits mask.
Note that ExecuteStage also knows how to identify situations where backpressure
increased because of delays introduced by data dependencies.
The SummaryView observes "backend pressure" events and prints out a "bottleneck
report".
Example of bottleneck report:
```
Cycles with backend pressure increase [ 99.89% ]
Throughput Bottlenecks:
Resource Pressure [ 0.00% ]
Data Dependencies: [ 99.89% ]
- Register Dependencies [ 0.00% ]
- Memory Dependencies [ 99.89% ]
```
A bottleneck report is printed out only if increases in backend pressure
eventually caused backend stalls.
About the time complexity:
Time complexity is linear in the number of instructions in the
Scheduler::PendingSet.
The average slowdown tends to be in the range of ~5-6%.
For memory intensive kernels, the slowdown can be significant if flag
-noalias=false is specified. In the worst case scenario I have observed a
slowdown of ~30% when flag -noalias=false was specified.
We can definitely recover part of that slowdown if we optimize class LSUnit (by
doing extra bookkeeping to speedup queries). For now, this new analysis is
disabled by default, and it can be enabled via flag -bottleneck-analysis. Users
of MCA as a library can enable the generation of pressure events through the
constructor of ExecuteStage.

from gcov(1):
```
-x
--hash-filenames
By default, gcov uses the full pathname of the source files to to
create an output filename. This can lead to long filenames that
can overflow filesystem limits. This option creates names of the
form source-file##md5.gcov, where the source-file component is
the final filename part and the md5 component is calculated from
the full mangled name that would have been used otherwise.

If a stack trace or similar has a list of addresses from an executable
or DSO loaded at a variable address (e.g. due to ASLR), the addresses
will not directly correspond to the addresses stored in the object file.
If a user wishes to use llvm-symbolizer, they have to subtract the load
address from every address. This is somewhat inconvenient, especially as
the output of --print-address will result in the adjusted address being
listed, rather than the address coming from the stack trace, making it
harder to map results between the two.
This change adds a new switch to llvm-symbolizer --adjust-vma which
takes an offset, which is then used to automatically do this
calculation. The printed address remains the input address (allowing for
easy mapping), whilst the specified offset is applied to the addresses
when performing the lookup.
The switch is conceptually similar to llvm-objdump's new switch of the
same name (see D57051), which in turn mirrors a GNU switch. There is no
equivalent switch in addr2line.

information also appears in the input dump's annotations.
2. The old trace buries any error diagnostic between it and the input
dump, but I find it useful to see any error diagnostic up front.
3. FILECHECK_OPTS=-dump-input=fail requests annotated input dumps only
for failed FileCheck calls. However, I have to also add -v or -vv
to get a full set of annotations, and that can produce massive
output from all FileCheck calls in all tests. That's a real
problem when I run this in the IDE I use, which grinds to a halt as
it tries to capture all that output.
When -dump-input=fail|always, this patch suppresses the old trace from
-v or -vv. Error diagnostics still print as usual. If you want the
old trace, perhaps to see variable expansions, you can set
-dump-input=none (the default).

Although GNU readelf doesn't support demangling, it is still a useful

Summary:
When running llvm-objdump with the -macho option objdump will by default
disassemble only the __TEXT,__text section (or __TEXT_EXEC,__text when
disassembling MH_KEXT_BUNDLE files). The -disassemble-all option is
treated no diferently than -disassemble.
This change upates llvm-objdump's MachO parsing code to disassemble all
__text sections found in a file when -disassemble-all is specified. This
is useful for disassembling files with more than one __text section, or
when disassembling files whose __text section is not present in __TEXT.
I added a lit test case that verifies "llvm-objdump -m -d" and
"llvm-objdump -m -D" produce the expected results on a reference binary.
I also updated the CommandGuide documentation for llvm-objdump.rst and
verified it renders correctly as man and html.

Part of the effort to refactoring frame pointer code generation. We used
to use two function attributes "no-frame-pointer-elim" and
"no-frame-pointer-elim-non-leaf" to represent three kinds of frame
pointer usage: (all) frames use frame pointer, (non-leaf) frames use
frame pointer, (none) frame use frame pointer. This CL makes the idea
explicit by using only one enum function attribute "frame-pointer"
Option "-frame-pointer=" replaces "-disable-fp-elim" for tools such as
llc.
"no-frame-pointer-elim" and "no-frame-pointer-elim-non-leaf" are still
supported for easy migration to "frame-pointer".

Extend FileCheck to dump its input annotated with FileCheck's
diagnostics: errors, good matches if -v, and additional information if
-vv. The goal is to make it easier to visualize FileCheck's matching
behavior when debugging.
Each patch in this series implements input annotations for a
particular category of FileCheck diagnostics. While the first few
patches alone are somewhat useful, the annotations become much more
useful as later patches implement annotations for -v and -vv
diagnostics, which show the matching behavior leading up to the error.
This first patch implements boilerplate plus input annotations for
error diagnostics reporting that no matches were found for a
directive. These annotations mark the search ranges of the failed
directives. Instead of using the usual `^~~`, which is used by later
patches for good matches, these annotations use `X~~` so that this
category of errors is visually distinct.
For example:
```
$ FileCheck -dump-input=help
The following description was requested by -dump-input=help to
explain the input annotations printed by -dump-input=always and
-dump-input=fail:
- L: labels line number L of the input file
- T:L labels the match result for a pattern of type T from line L of
the check file
- X~~ marks search range when no match is found
- colors error
If you are not seeing color above or in input dumps, try: -color
$ FileCheck -v -dump-input=always check1 < input1 |& sed -n '/^Input file/,$p'
Input file: <stdin>
Check file: check1
-dump-input=help describes the format of the following dump.
Full input was:
<<<<<<
1: ; abc def
2: ; ghI jkl
next:3 X~~~~~~~~ error: no match found
>>>>>>
$ cat check1
CHECK: abc
CHECK-SAME: def
CHECK-NEXT: ghi
CHECK-SAME: jkl
$ cat input1
; abc def
; ghI jkl
```
Some additional details related to the boilerplate:
* Enabling: The annotated input dump is enabled by `-dump-input`,
which can also be set via the `FILECHECK_OPTS` environment variable.
Accepted values are `help`, `always`, `fail`, or `never`. As shown
above, `help` describes the format of the dump. `always` is helpful
when you want to investigate a successful FileCheck run, perhaps for
an unexpected pass. `-dump-input-on-failure` and
`FILECHECK_DUMP_INPUT_ON_FAILURE` remain as a deprecated alias for
`-dump-input=fail`.
* Diagnostics: The usual diagnostics are not suppressed in this mode
and are printed first. For brevity in the example above, I've
omitted them using a sed command. Sometimes they're perfectly
sufficient, and then they make debugging quicker than if you were
forced to hunt through a dump of long input looking for the error.
If you think they'll get in the way sometimes, keep in mind that
it's pretty easy to grep for the start of the input dump, which is
`<<<`.
* Colored Annotations: The annotated input is colored if colors are
enabled (enabling colors can be forced using -color). For example,
errors are red. However, as in the above example, colors are not
vital to reading the annotations.
I don't know how to test color in the output, so any hints here would
be appreciated.

In some cases it is desirable to match the same pattern repeatedly

check pattern as many times as needed. And that gets pretty unwieldy

Introducing CHECK-COUNT-<num> directive which acts like a plain CHECK
directive yet matches the same pattern exactly <num> times.
Extended FileCheckType to a struct to add Count there.
Changed some parsing routines to handle non-fixed length of directive
(all currently existing directives were fixed-length).
The code is generic enough to allow future support for COUNT in more

This patch introduces the following changes to the DispatchStatistics view:
* DispatchStatistics now reports the number of dispatched opcodes instead of
the number of dispatched instructions.
* The "Dynamic Dispatch Stall Cycles" table now also reports the percentage of
stall cycles against the total simulated cycles.
This change allows users to easily compare dispatch group sizes with the
processor DispatchWidth.
Before this change, it was difficult to correlate the two numbers, since
DispatchStatistics view reported numbers of instructions (instead of opcodes).
DispatchWidth defines the maximum size of a dispatch group in terms of number of
micro opcodes.
The other change introduced by this patch is related to how DispatchStage
generates "instruction dispatch" events.
In particular:
* There can be multiple dispatch events associated with a same instruction
* Each dispatch event now encapsulates the number of dispatched micro opcodes.
The number of micro opcodes declared by an instruction may exceed the processor
DispatchWidth. Therefore, we cannot assume that instructions are always fully
dispatched in a single cycle.
DispatchStage knows already how to handle instructions declaring a number of
opcodes bigger that DispatchWidth. However, DispatchStage always emitted a
single instruction dispatch event (during the first simulated dispatch cycle)
for instructions dispatched.
With this patch, DispatchStage now correctly notifies multiple dispatch events
for instructions that cannot be dispatched in a single cycle.
A few views had to be modified. Views can no longer assume that there can only
be one dispatch event per instruction.
Tests (and docs) have been updated.

The aim of this backend is to output everything TableGen knows about
the record set, similarly to the default -print-records backend. But
where -print-records produces output in TableGen's input syntax
(convenient for humans to read), this backend produces it as
structured JSON data, which is convenient for loading into standard
scripting languages such as Python, in order to extract information
from the data set in an automated way.
The output data contains a JSON representation of the variable
definitions in output 'def' records, and a few pieces of metadata such
as which of those definitions are tagged with the 'field' prefix and
which defs are derived from which classes. It doesn't dump out
absolutely every piece of knowledge it _could_ produce, such as type
information and complicated arithmetic operator nodes in abstract
superclasses; the main aim is to allow consumers of this JSON dump to
essentially act as new backends, and backends don't generally need to
depend on that kind of data.
The new backend is implemented as an EmitJSON() function similar to
all of llvm-tblgen's other EmitFoo functions, except that it lives in
lib/TableGen instead of utils/TableGen on the basis that I'm expecting
to add it to clang-tblgen too in a future patch.
To test it, I've written a Python script that loads the JSON output
and tests properties of it based on comments in the .td source - more
or less like FileCheck, except that the CHECK: lines have Python
expressions after them instead of textual pattern matches.

Prior to this change, there was no clean way of getting FileCheck to
check that a line is completely empty. The expected way of using
"CHECK: {{^$}}" does not work because the '^' matches the end of the
previous match (this behaviour may be desirable in certain instances).
For the same reason, "CHECK-NEXT: {{^$}}" will fail when the previous
match was at the end of the line, as the pattern will match there.
Using the recommended [[:space:]] to match an explicit new line could
also match a space, and thus is not always desired. Literal '\n'
matches also do not work. A workaround was suggested in the review, but
it is a little clunky.
This change adds a new directive that behaves the same as CHECK-NEXT,
except that it only matches against empty lines (nothing, not even
whitespace, is allowed). As with CHECK-NEXT, it will fail if more than
one newline occurs before the next blank line. Example usage:
; test.txt
foo

This patch moves the logic that collects and analyzes dispatch events to the
DispatchStatistics view.
Added flag -dispatch-stats to print statistics related to the dispatch logic.

This patch teaches llvm-mca how to parse code comments in search for special
"markers" used to select regions of code.
Example:
# LLVM-MCA-BEGIN My Code Region
....
# LLVM-MCA-END
The MCAsmLexer now delegates to an object of class MCACommentParser (i.e. an
AsmCommentConsumer) the parsing of code comments to search for begin/end code
region markers.
A comment starting with substring "LLVM-MCA-BEGIN" marks the beginning of a new
region of code. A comment starting with substring "LLVM-MCA-END" marks the end
of the last region.
This implementation doesn't allow regions to overlap. Each region can have a
optional description; internally, each region is identified by a range of source
code locations (SMLoc).
MCInst objects are added to a region R only if the source location for the
MCInst is in the range of locations specified by R.
By default, the tool allocates an implicit "Default" code region which contains
every source location. See new tests llvm-mca-marker-*.s for a few examples.
A new Backend object is created for every region. So, the analysis is conducted
on every parsed code region. The final report is the union of the reports
generated for every code region. Note that empty regions are skipped.
Special "[#] Code Region - ..." strings are used in the report to mark the
portion which is specific to a code region only. For example, see
llvm-mca-markers-5.s.

Summary:
The option is helpful for large projects where it's not feasible to specify sources which
user would like to see in the report. Instead, it allows to black-list specific sources via
regular expressions (e.g. now it's possible to skip all files that have "test" in its name).

This is done in preparation for D45259.
With D45259, models can specify the size of the reorder buffer, and the retire

Before this patch, the "BackendStatistics" view was responsible for printing the
register file usage (as well as many other statistics).
Now users can enable register file usage statistics using the command line flag
`-register-file-stats`. By default, the tool doesn't print register file
statistics.

When running dsymutil as part of your build system, it can be desirable
for warnings to be part of the end product, rather than just being
emitted to the output stream. This patch upstreams that functionality.

Document that flag -resource-pressure can be used to enable/disable the resource
pressure view. This change should have been part of r328305.
llvm-svn: 328492
The goal of this patch is to address most of PR36874. To fully fix PR36874 we
need to split the "InstructionInfo" view from the "SummaryView". That would make
easy to check the latency and rthroughput as well.
The patch reuses all the logic from ResourcePressureView to print out the
"instruction tables".
We have an entry for every instruction in the input sequence. Each entry reports
the theoretical resource pressure distribution. Resource pressure is uniformly
distributed across all the processor resource units of a group.
At the moment, the backend pipeline is not configurable, so the only way to fix
this is by creating a different driver that simply sends instruction events to
the resource pressure view. That means, we don't use the Backend interface.
Instead, it is simpler to just have a different code-path for when flag
-instruction-tables is specified.
Once Clement addresses bug 36663, then we can port the "instruction tables"
logic into a stage of our configurable pipeline.
Updated the BtVer2 test cases (thanks Simon for the help). Now we pass flag
-instruction-tables to each modified test.

llvm-mca is an LLVM based performance analysis tool that can be used to
statically measure the performance of code, and to help triage potential
problems with target scheduling models.
llvm-mca uses information which is already available in LLVM (e.g. scheduling
models) to statically measure the performance of machine code in a specific cpu.
Performance is measured in terms of throughput as well as processor resource
consumption. The tool currently works for processors with an out-of-order
backend, for which there is a scheduling model available in LLVM.
The main goal of this tool is not just to predict the performance of the code
when run on the target, but also help with diagnosing potential performance
issues.
Given an assembly code sequence, llvm-mca estimates the IPC (instructions per
cycle), as well as hardware resources pressure. The analysis and reporting style
were mostly inspired by the IACA tool from Intel.

Now that dsymutil can generate accelerator tables, we can upstream the
update logic that, as the name implies, updates the accelerator tables
in an existing dSYM bundle. In combination with `-minimize` this can be
used to remove redundant .debug_(inlines|pubtypes|pubnames).

Passing -minimize to dsymutil prevents the emission of .debug_inlines,

The actual check in the DWARF linker was added in r323655. This patch
