Most Windows platforms use auxiliary data for unwinding. This information is
stored in the .pdata section. The encoding format for the data differs between
architectures and Windows variants. Windows MIPS and Alpha use identical
formats; Alpha64 is the same with different widths. Windows x86_64 and Itanium
share the representation. All Windows CE entries are identical irrespective of
the architecture. ARMv7 (Windows [NT] on ARM) has its own format.
This enumeration will become the differentiator once the windows EH emission
infrastructure is generalised, allowing us to emit the necessary unwinding
information for Windows on ARM.

I saw at least a memory leak or two from inspection (on probably
untested error paths) and r206991, which was the original inspiration
for this change.
I ran this idea by Jim Grosbach a few weeks ago & he was OK with it.
Since it's a basically mechanical patch that seemed sufficient - usual
post-commit review, revert, etc, as needed.

* Section association cannot use just the section name as many
sections can have the same name. With this patch, the comdat symbol in
an assoc section is interpreted to mean a symbol in the associated
section and the mapping is discovered from it.
* Comdat symbols were not being set correctly. Instead we were getting
whatever was output first for that section.
A consequence is that associative sections now must use .section to
set the association. Using .linkonce would not work since it is not
possible to change a sections comdat symbol (it is used to decide if
we should create a new section or reuse an existing one).
This includes r210298, which was reverted because it was asserting
on an associated section having the same comdat as the associated
section.
llvm-svn: 210367
We extended the .section syntax to allow multiple sections with the
same name but different comdats, but currently we don't make sure that
the output section has that comdat symbol.
That happens to work with the code llc produces currently because it looks like
.section secName, "dr", one_only, "COMDATSym"
.globl COMDATSym
COMDATSym:
....
but that is not very friendly to anyone coding in assembly or even to
llc once we get comdat support in the IR.
This patch changes the coff object writer to make sure the comdat symbol is
output just after the section symbol, as required by the coff spec.

Now that clang can be used as an assembler via the IAS, invalid assembler inputs
would cause the assertions to trigger. Although we cannot recover from the
errors here, nor provide caret diagnostics, attempt to handle them slightly more
gracefully by reporting a fatal error.

This reverts commit r208930, r208933, and r208975.
It seems not all fission consumers are ready to handle this behavior.
Reverting until tools are brought up to spec.
llvm-svn: 209338
Add support to allow a target specific COFF object writer to restrict the
recorded resolutions in the emitted object files. This is motivated by the need
in Windows on ARM, where an intermediate relocation needs to be prevented from
being emitted in the object file.
llvm-svn: 209336
Since type units in the dwo file are handled by a debug aware tool, they
don't need to leverage the ELF comdat grouping to implement
deduplication. Avoid creating all the .group sections for these as a
space optimization.

The old method used by X86TTI to determine partial-unrolling thresholds was
messy (because it worked by testing target features), and also would not
correctly identify the target CPU if certain target features were disabled.
After some discussions on IRC with Chandler et al., it was decided that the
processor scheduling models were the right containers for this information
(because it is often tied to special uop dispatch-buffer sizes).
This does represent a small functionality change:
- For generic x86-64 (which uses the SB model and, thus, will get some
unrolling).
- For AMD cores (because they still currently use the SB scheduling model)
- For Haswell (based on benchmarking by Louis Gerbarg, it was decided to bump
the default threshold to 50; we're working on a test case for this).
Otherwise, nothing has changed for any other targets. The logic, however, has
been moved into BasicTTI, so other targets may now also opt-in to this
functionality simply by setting LoopMicroOpBufferSize in their processor
model definitions.

The fix itself is fairly simple: move getAccessVariant to MCValue so that we
replace the old weak expression evaluation with the far more general
EvaluateAsRelocatable.
This then requires that EvaluateAsRelocatable stop when it finds a non
trivial reference kind. And that in turn requires the ELF writer to look
harder for weak references.
Last but not least, this found a case where we were being bug by bug
compatible with gas and accepting an invalid input. I reported pr19647
to track it.

This patch centralizes the handling of the thumb bit around
MCStreamer::isThumbFunc and makes isThumbFunc handle aliases.
This fixes a corner case, but the main advantage is having just one
way to check if a MCSymbol is thumb or not. This should still be
refactored to be ARM only, but at least now it is just one predicate
that has to be refactored instead of 3 (isThumbFunc,
ELF_Other_ThumbFunc, and SF_ThumbFunc).
llvm-svn: 207522
When evaluating an assembly expression for a relocation, we want to
stop at MCSymbols that are in the symbol table, even if they are variables.
This is needed since the semantics may require that the relocation use them.
That is not the case when computing the value of a symbol in the symbol table.
There are no relocations in this case and we have to keep going until we hit
a section or find out that the expression doesn't have an assembly time
value.

This introduces a target specific streamer, X86WinCOFFStreamer, which handles
the target specific behaviour (e.g. WinEH). This is mostly to ensure that
differences between ARM and X86 remain disjoint and do not accidentally cross
boundaries. This is the final staging change for enabling object emission for
Windows on ARM.
llvm-svn: 207344
This is in preparation for promoting WinCOFFStreamer to a base class which will
be shared by the X86 and ARM specific target COFF streamers. Also add a new
getOrCreateSymbolData interface (like MCELFStreamer) for the ARM COFF Streamer.
This makes the COFFStreamer more similar to the ELFStreamer.

I discovered this const-hole while attempting to coalesnce the Symbol
and SymbolMap data structures. There's some pending issues with that,
but I figured this change was easy to flush early.

For now it contains a single flag, SanitizeAddress, which enables
AddressSanitizer instrumentation of inline assembly.
Patch by Yuri Gorshenin.

from places like MCCodeEmitter() in the MC backend when the
MCContext is const.
I was going to use this in my change for r206669 but Jim convinced
me to use an assert there. But this still is a good tweak.
