Don't create names for temporary symbols when using an object streamer.
The names never make it to the output anyway. From the starting point
of r236629, my heap profile says this drops peak memory usage from 1100
MB to 1058 MB for CodeGen of `verify-uselistorder`, a savings of almost
4% on peak memory, and removes `StringMap<bool, BumpPtrAllocator...>`
from the profile entirely.
(I'm looking at `llc` memory usage on `verify-uselistorder.lto.opt.bc`;
see r236629 for details.)

Currently symbol names are printed in quotes if it contains something
outside of the arbitrary set of characters that isAcceptableChar tests
for. On somem targets, it is never OK to print a symbol name in quotes
so allow targets to opt out of this behavior.

This allows the compiler/assembly programmer to switch back to a
section. This in turn fixes the bootstrap failure on powerpc (tested
on gcc110) without changing the ppc codegen at all.
I will try to cleanup the various getELFSection overloads in a followup patch.
Just using a default argument now would lead to ambiguities.

This lets us catch exceptions in simple cases.
N.B. Things that do not work include (but are not limited to):
- Throwing from within a catch handler.
- Catching an object with a named catch parameter.
- 'CatchHigh' is fictitious, we aren't sure of its purpose.
- We aren't entirely efficient with regards to the number of EH states
that we generate.
- IP-to-State tables are sensitive to the order of emission.

These sections are never looked up and we know when have to create them. Use
that to save adding them to the regular map and avoid a symbol->string->symbol
conversion for the group symbol.
This also makes the implementation independent of the details of how unique
sections are implemented.
llvm-svn: 233539
Before this patch code wanting to create temporary labels for a given entity
(function, cu, exception range, etc) had to keep its own counter to have stable
symbol names.
createTempSymbol would still add a suffix to make sure a new symbol was always
returned, but it kept a single counter. Because of that, if we were to use
just createTempSymbol("cu_begin"), the label could change from cu_begin42 to
cu_begin43 because some other code started using temporary labels.
Simplify this by just keeping one counter per prefix and removing the various
specialized counters.

Same as MakeArgString in r232465, keep only LookupSymbol(Twine)
while making sure it handles the StringRef like cases efficiently
using twine::toStringRef.
llvm-svn: 232517
This lets us pass the symbol to the constructor and avoid the mutable field.
This also opens the way for outputting the symbol only when needed, instead
of outputting them at the start of the file.
llvm-svn: 231859
This removes a bit of duplicated code and more importantly, remembers the
labels so that they don't need to be looked up by name.
This in turn allows for any name to be used and avoids a crash if the name
we wanted was already taken.

Add support for having multiple sections with the same name and comdat.
Using this in combination with -ffunction-sections allows LLVM to output a .o
file with mulitple sections named .text. This saves space by avoiding long
unique names of the form .text.<C++ mangled name>.

regressions for LLDB on Linux. Rafael indicated on lldb-dev that we
should just go ahead and revert these but that he wasn't at a computer.
The patches backed out are as follows:
r228980: Add support for having multiple sections with the name and ...
r228889: Invert the section relocation map.
r228888: Use the existing SymbolTableIndex intsead of doing a lookup.
r228886: Create the Section -> Rel Section map when it is first needed.
These patches look pretty nice to me, so hoping its not too hard to get
them re-instated. =D

Any code creating an MCSectionELF knows ELF and already provides the flags.
SectionKind is an abstraction used by common code that uses a plain
MCSection.
Use the flags to compute the SectionKind. This removes a lot of
guessing and boilerplate from the MCSectionELF construction.

These intrinsics allow multiple functions to share a single stack
allocation from one function's call frame. The function with the
allocation may only perform one allocation, and it must be in the entry
block.
Functions accessing the allocation call llvm.recoverframeallocation with
the function whose frame they are accessing and a frame pointer from an
active call frame of that function.
These intrinsics are very difficult to inline correctly, so the
intention is that they be introduced rarely, or at least very late
during EH preparation.

Having two ways to do this doesn't seem terribly helpful and
consistently using the insert version (which we already has) seems like
it'll make the code easier to understand to anyone working with standard
data structures. (I also updated many references to the Entry's
key and value to use first() and second instead of getKey{Data,Length,}
and get/setValue - for similar consistency)
Also removes the GetOrCreateValue functions so there's less surface area
to StringMap to fix/improve/change/accommodate move semantics, etc.

The only difference from r219829 is using
getOrCreateSectionSymbol(*ELFSec)
instead of
GetOrCreateSymbol(ELFSec->getSectionName())
in ELFObjectWriter which causes us to use the correct section symbol even if
we have multiple sections with the same name.
Original messages:
r219829:
Correctly handle references to section symbols.
When processing assembly like
.long .text
we were creating a new undefined symbol .text. GAS on the other hand would
handle that as a reference to the .text section.
This patch implements that by creating the section symbols earlier so that
they are visible during asm parsing.
The patch also updates llvm-readobj to print the symbol number in the relocation
dump so that the test can differentiate between two sections with the same name.
r219835:
Allow forward references to section symbols.

Summary:
This fixes a long standing issue where we would emit many little .text
sections and only one .pdata and .xdata section. Now we generate one
.pdata / .xdata pair per .text section and associate them correctly.
Fixes PR19667.

COFF lacks a feature that other object file formats support: mergeable
sections.
To work around this, MSVC sticks constant pool entries in special COMDAT
sections so that each constant is in it's own section. This permits
unused constants to be dropped and it also allows duplicate constants in
different translation units to get merged together.
This fixes PR20262.

Use 0 for the invalid buffer instead of -1/~0 and switch to unsigned
representation to enable more idiomatic usage.
Also introduce a trivial SourceMgr::getMainFileID() instead of hard-coding 0/1
to identify the main file.
llvm-svn: 212398
COFF sections in MC were represented by a tuple of section-name and
COMDAT-name. This is not sufficient to represent a .text section
associated with another .text section; we need a way to distinguish
between the key section and the one marked associative.

string_ostream is a safe and efficient string builder that combines opaque
stack storage with a built-in ostream interface.
small_string_ostream<bytes> additionally permits an explicit stack storage size
other than the default 128 bytes to be provided. Beyond that, storage is
transferred to the heap.
This convenient class can be used in most places an
std::string+raw_string_ostream pair or SmallString<>+raw_svector_ostream pair
would previously have been used, in order to guarantee consistent access
without byte truncation.
The patch also converts much of LLVM to use the new facility. These changes
include several probable bug fixes for truncated output, a programming error
that's no longer possible with the new interface.

Currently, when using llvm as an assembler, DWARF debug information is only
generated for the .text section. This patch modifies this so that DWARF info
is emitted for all executable sections.

* 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
This was initialized by llvm-mc (calling setDwarfVersion) but other
clients (such as clang, llc, etc) aren't necessarily initializing this
so we were getting garbage DWARF version values in the output.
Initialize it to a reasonable default (the same default used in llvm-mc,
though this is higher than it was (2) previously).

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.

This seems to have been a cargo-culted habit from the very first such
cache which didn't have any specific justification (but might've been a
layering constraint at the time).

To support compressing the debug_line section that contains multiple
fragments (due, I believe, to variation in choices of line table
encoding depending on the size of instruction ranges in the actual
program code) we needed to support compressing multiple MCFragments in a
single pass.
This patch implements that behavior by mutating the post-relaxed and
relocated section to be the compressed form of its former self,
including renaming the section.
This is a more flexible (and less invasive, to a degree) implementation
that will allow for other features such as "use compression only if it's
smaller than the uncompressed data".
Compressing debug_frame would be a possible further extension to this
work, but I've left it for now. The hurdle there is alignment sections -
which might require going as far as to refactor
MCAssembler.cpp:writeFragment to handle writing to a byte buffer or an
MCObjectWriter (there's already a virtual call there, so it shouldn't
add substantial compile-time cost) which could in turn involve
refactoring MCAsmBackend::writeNopData to use that same abstraction...
which involves touching all the backends. This would remove the limited
handling of fragment writing seen in
ELFObjectWriter.cpp:getUncompressedData which would be nice - but it's
more invasive.
I did discover that I (perhaps obviously) don't need to handle
relocations when I rewrite the fragments - since the relocations have
already been applied and computed (and stored into
ELFObjectWriter::Relocations) by this stage (necessarily, because we
need to have written any immediate values or assembly-time relocations
into the data already before we compress it, which we have). The test
case doesn't necessarily cover that in detail - I can add more test
coverage if that's preferred.

To support compression for debug_line and debug_frame a different
approach is required. To simplify review, revert the old implementation
and XFAIL the test case. New implementation to follow shortly.

The upcoming ARM64 backend doesn't have section-relative relocations,
so we give each section its own symbol to provide this functionality.
Of course, it doesn't need to appear in the final executable, so
linker-private is the best kind for this purpose.
llvm-svn: 205081
Turns out debug_frame does use multiple fragments, so it doesn't
compress correctly with the current approach. Disable compressing it for
now while I figure out what's the best solution for it.
