Objective-C metadata types which should be marked as "weak", but which the
linker will remove upon final linkage. However, this linkage isn't specific to
Objective-C.
For example, the "objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc" symbol is defined like this:
.globl l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
.weak_definition l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
.section __DATA, __objc_msgrefs, coalesced
.align 3
l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc:
.quad _objc_msgSend_fixup
.quad L_OBJC_METH_VAR_NAME_1
This is different from the "linker_private" linkage type, because it can't have
the metadata defined with ".weak_definition".
Currently only supported on Darwin platforms.

having a library both as bitcode and native code. We want to use the
bitcode first, but if codegen produces new undefined references we have to use
the native code to satisfy those references.
Gold has no notion of bitcode and native search directories, so instead it has
an API where the plugin can instruct it to look for the libraries it is passing
to it. This patch uses that API.

ask the linker to take another look into some library or object. The case when
one might want to do this is when codegen introduces a new undefined reference.
The canonical example is libgcc.

callgraph SCC's. This makes it match what the node itself would print. Also,
"indirect callgraph node" doesn't make sense - it has nothing particularly to
do with indirect calls.

raw_ostream doesn't try to do its own error handling.
Also, close the raw_ostream before checking for errors so that any
errors that occur during closing are caught by the manual check.

bugpoint does "Running the code generator to test for a crash" this
gets you a crash if llc goes into an infinite loop or uses up vast
amounts of memory.

isn't ideal if we want to be able to use another object file format.
Add a createObjectStreamer() factory method so that the correct object
file streamer can be instantiated for a given target triple.

The revision history for this function is interesting, with multiple layers of
wrongness being introduced one at a time.
This fixes a weird issue where bugpoint -run-llc would suddenly exit 13 half way
through isolating a miscompilation.

and the others use the regular addPassesToEmitFile hook now, and
llc no longer needs a bunch of redundant code to handle the
whole-file case.

string of features for that target. However LTO was using that string to pass
into the "create target machine" stuff. That stuff needed the feature string to
be in a particular form. In particular, it needed the CPU specified first and
then the attributes. If there isn't a CPU specified, it required it to be blank
-- e.g., ",+altivec". Yuck.
Modify the getDefaultSubtargetFeatures method to be a non-static member
function. For all attributes for a specific subtarget, it will add them in like
normal. It will also take a CPU string so that it can satisfy this horrible
syntax.

evaluated incorrectly. Also added support for
checking operand values to the llvm-mc tester.
