In ELF and COFF an alias is just another offset in a section. There is no way
to represent an alias to something in another file.
In MachO, the spec has the N_INDR type which should allow for exactly that, but
is not currently implemented. Given that it is specified but not implemented,
we error in codegen to avoid miscompiling but don't reject aliases to
declarations in the verifier to leave the option open of implementing it.
In the past we have used alias to declarations as a way of implementing
weakref, which is why it exists in some old tests which this patch updates.

linkonce_odr_auto_hide was in incomplete attempt to implement a way
for the linker to hide symbols that are known to be available in every
TU and whose addresses are not relevant for a particular DSO.
It was redundant in that it all its uses are equivalent to
linkonce_odr+unnamed_addr. Unlike those, it has never been connected
to clang or llvm's optimizers, so it was effectively dead.
Given that nothing produces it, this patch just nukes it
(other than the llvm-c enum value).
llvm-svn: 193865
With this patch llvm produces a weak_def_can_be_hidden for linkonce_odr
if they are also unnamed_addr or don't have their address taken.
There is not a lot of documentation about .weak_def_can_be_hidden, but
from the old discussion about linkonce_odr_auto_hide and the name of
the directive this looks correct: these symbols can be hidden.
Testing this with the ld64 in Xcode 5 linking clang reduces the number of
exported symbols from 21053 to 19049.

Use EmitLabelOffsetDifference for handling on darwin platform when
non-darwin platforms use EmitLabelPlusOffset.
Also fix a bug in EmitLabelOffsetDifference where the size is hard-coded
to 4 even though Size is passed in as an argument.

This ensures that the prefix data is treated as part of the function for
the purpose of debug info. This provides a better debugging experience,
among other things by allowing a debug info client to correctly look up
a function in debug info given a function pointer.

For NVPTX, this fixes a crash where the emitImplicitDef implementation was expecting physical registers,
while NVPTX uses virtual registers (with a couple of exceptions). Now, the implicit def comment will be
emitted as a true PTX register name. Other targets can use this to customize the output of implicit def
comments.
Fixes PR17519

The size of common symbols is now tracked correctly, so they can be listed in the arange section without needing knowledge of other following symbols.
.comm (and .lcomm) do not indicate to the system assembler any particular section to use, so we have to treat them as having no section.
Test case update to account for this.

The 'Deprecated' class allows you to specify a SubtargetFeature that the
instruction is deprecated on.
The 'ComplexDeprecationPredicate' class allows you to define a custom
predicate that is called to check for deprecation.
For example:
ComplexDeprecationPredicate<"MCR">
would mean you would have to define the following function:
bool getMCRDeprecationInfo(MCInst &MI, MCSubtargetInfo &STI,
std::string &Info)
Which returns 'false' for not deprecated, and 'true' for deprecated
and store the warning message in 'Info'.
The MCTargetAsmParser constructor was chaned to take an extra argument of
the MCInstrInfo class, so out-of-tree targets will need to be changed.
llvm-svn: 190598
We currently emit labels with the prefix Lllvm$workaround$fake$stub$ if
the target's MCAsmInfo has getLinkOnceDirective() mapped to something
interesting. This was apparently a work around introduced in r31033 for
binutils that we don't need anymore.

MF is normally initialized in AsmPrinter::SetupMachineFunction, but if the file
contains only globals (no functions), then we need this to be initialized
because, when encountering an error, lowerConstant() references it.
This should fix the non-deterministic failures of
test/CodeGen/X86/nonconst-static-iv.ll, etc.

Change the informal convention of DBG_VALUE machine instructions so that
we can express a register-indirect address with an offset of 0.
The old convention was that a DBG_VALUE is a register-indirect value if
the offset (operand 1) is nonzero. The new convention is that a DBG_VALUE
is register-indirect if the first operand is a register and the second
operand is an immediate. For plain register values the combination reg,
reg is used. MachineInstrBuilder::BuildMI knows how to build the new
DBG_VALUES.

r179494 switched to using the object file info to retrieve the default text
section for some MC streamers. It is possible that initializing an MC
streamer can request sections before the object file info is initialized
when the AutoInitSections flag is set on the streamer.
llvm-svn: 185670
This is dead code since PIC16 was removed in 2010. The result was an odd mix,
where some parts would carefully pass it along and others would assert it was
zero (most of the object streamer for example).

We had been papering over a problem with location info for non-trivial
types passed by value by emitting their type as references (this caused
the debugger to interpret the location information correctly, but broke
the type of the function). r183329 corrected the type information but
lead to the debugger interpreting the pointer parameter as the value -
the debug info describing the location needed an extra dereference.
Use a new flag in DIVariable to add the extra indirection (either by
promoting an existing DW_OP_reg (parameter passed in a register) to
DW_OP_breg + 0 or by adding DW_OP_deref to an existing DW_OP_breg + n
(parameter passed on the stack).

Frame index handling is now target-agnostic, so delete the target hooks
for creation & asm printing of target-specific addressing in DBG_VALUEs
and any related functions.
llvm-svn: 184067
Rather than using the full power of target-specific addressing modes in
DBG_VALUEs with Frame Indicies, simply use Frame Index + Offset. This
reduces the complexity of debug info handling down to two
representations of values (reg+offset and frame index+offset) rather
than three or four.
Ideally we could ensure that frame indicies had been eliminated by the
time we reached an assembly or dwarf generation, but I haven't spent the
time to figure out where the FIs are leaking through into that & whether
there's a good place to convert them. Some FI+offset=>reg+offset
conversion is done (see PrologEpilogInserter, for example) which is
necessary for some SelectionDAG assumptions about registers, I believe,
but it might be possible to make this a more thorough conversion &
ensure there are no remaining FIs no matter how instruction selection
is performed.
llvm-svn: 184066
Fix an assertion when the compiler encounters big constants whose bit width is
not a multiple of 64-bits.
Although clang would never generate something like this, the backend should be
able to handle any legal IR.
