I was surprised to see the code model being passed to MC. After all,
it assembles code, it doesn't create it.
The one place it is used is in the expansion of .cfi directives to
handle .eh_frame being more that 2gb away from the code.
As far as I can tell, gnu assembler doesn't even have an option to
enable this. Compiling a c file with gcc -mcmodel=large produces a
regular looking .eh_frame. This is probably because in practice linker
parse and recreate .eh_frames.
In llvm this is used because the JIT can place the code and .eh_frame
very far apart. Ideally we would fix the jit and delete this
option. This is hard.
Apart from confusion another problem with the current interface is
that most callers pass CodeModel::Default, which is bad since MC has
no way to map it to the target default if it actually needed to.
This patch then replaces the argument with a boolean with a default
value. The vast majority of users don't ever need to look at it. In
fact, only CodeGen and llvm-mc use it and llvm-mc just to enable more
testing.

This is a preparatory change to expose the debug compression style to
clang. It requires exposing the enumeration and passing the actual
value through to the backend from the frontend in actual value form
rather than a boolean that selects the GNU style of debug info
compression.
Minor tweak to the ELF Object Writer to use a variable for re-used
values. Add an assertion that debug information format is one of the
two currently known types if debug information is being compressed.

what I believe was an undefined behavior when calling:
va_start(ValueArgs, Desc);

Summary:
They are now lexed as a single token on targets where
MCAsmInfo::HasMipsExpressions is true and then parsed in a similar way to
the '~' operator as part of MCExpr::parseExpression.
As a result:
* expressions and immediates no longer have different parsing rules. The
difference is now solely down to whether evaluateAsAbsolute() succeeds.
* %hi(%neg(%gp_rel(x))) are no longer parsed as a single operator and
decomposed into the three MipsMCExpr nodes. They are parsed directly as
three MipsMCExpr nodes.
* parseMemOperand no longer needs to eat all the surrounding parenthesis
to get at the outermost operator to make this work
* %hi(%neg(%gp_rel(x))) and %lo(%neg(%gp_rel(x))) are no longer the only
3-in-1 relocs that parse for N64. They're still the only combinations that
are permitted in relocatable expressions though. Fixing that should be a
later patch.
* We no longer need to list all the tokens that can occur as the first token of
an expression or immediate.
test/MC/Mips/expr1.s:
This change also prevents the incorrect lowering of %lo(2*4)+foo to
%lo(8+foo) which is not an equivalent expression (the difference is
whether foo is truncated to 16-bit or not) and the test has been
updated to account for the macro expansion the correct expression requires.

[llvm-mc] - Teach llvm-mc to generate zlib styled compression sections.
This patch is strongly based on previously reverted D20331.
(because of gnuutils < 2.26 does not support compressed debug sections in non zlib-gnu style)
Difference that this patch supports both zlib and zlib-gnu styles.
-compress-debug-sections option now supports next values:
-compress-debug-sections=zlib-gnu
-compress-debug-sections=zlib
-compress-debug-sections=none
Previously specifying -compress-debug-sections enabled zlib-gnu compression,
so anyone can put "-compress-debug-sections=zlib-gnu" to restore the behavior
that was before this patch for case when compression was enabled.

MC only needs to know if the output is PIC or not. It never has to
decide about creating GOTs and PLTs for example. The only thing that
MC itself uses this information for is expanding "macros" in sparc and
mips. The rest I am pretty sure could be moved to CodeGen.
This is a cleanup and isolates the code from future changes to
Reloc::Model.

MCContext shouldn't be accessing the filesystem - that's a gross
layering violation and makes it awkward to use as a library or in a
daemon where it may not even be allowed filesystem access.
The CWD lookup here is normally redundant anyway, since the calling
context either also looks up the CWD or sets this to something more
specific. Here, we fix up the one caller that doesn't already set up a
debug compilation dir and make it clear that the responsibility for
such set up is in the users of MCContext.

Today, we always take into account the possibility that object files
produced by MC may be consumed by an incremental linker. This results
in us initialing fields which vary with time (TimeDateStamp) which harms
hermetic builds (e.g. verifying a self-host went well) and produces
sub-optimal code because we cannot assume anything about the relative
position of functions within a section (call sites can get redirected
through incremental linker thunks).
Let's provide an MCTargetOption which controls this behavior so that we
can disable this functionality if we know a-priori that the build will
not rely on /incremental.

Summary:
This is the first patch in the series to migrate Triple's (which are ambiguous)
to TargetTuple's (which aren't).
For the moment, TargetTuple simply passes all requests to the Triple object it
holds. Once it has replaced Triple, it will start to implement the interface in
a more suitable way.
This change makes some changes to the public C++ API. In particular,
InitMCSubtargetInfo(), createMCRelocationInfo(), and createMCSymbolizer()
now take TargetTuples instead of Triples. The other public C++ API's have
been left as-is for the moment to reduce patch size.
This commit also contains a trivial patch to clang to account for the C++ API
change. Thanks go to Pavel Labath for fixing LLDB for me.

This is a follow up to r247518.
As a general note, I think we could do a much better job testing for
error conditions in tools. I already anticipated in a previous mail,
but while implementing this I noticed that the code coverage we have
for error checking is pretty low. I can arbitrarily remove checks from
several tools and the suite still passes.

Before we just printed on stderr the program name. Now at least we
print the name of the file that doesn't exist. There's probably room
for improvement of error handling in llvm-mc (and the tools in general),
but still this is a step forward.

Directional labels can show up in symbol tables (and we have a llvm-mc test for
that). Given that, we need to make sure they are named.
With that out of the way, use setUseNamesOnTempLabels in llvm-mc so that it
too benefits from the memory saving.

Summary:
This affects other tools so the previous C++ API has been retained as a
deprecated function for the moment. Clang has been updated with a trivial
patch (not covered by the pre-commit review) to avoid breaking -Werror builds.
Other in-tree tools will be fixed with similar patches.
This continues the patch series to eliminate StringRef forms of GNU triples
from the internals of LLVM that began in r239036.
The first time this was committed it accidentally fixed an inconsistency in
triples in llvm-mc and this caused a failure. This inconsistency was fixed in
r239808.

Summary:
GetTarget() may modify TripleName without also updating TheTriple.
This can lead to situations where the MCObjectStreamer has a different triple
to the rest of LLVM.
This inconsistency caused sparc-little-endian.s to pass on Windows because most
of LLVM had sparcel-pc-win32 while MCObjectStreamer had "". I believe the same
kind of thing was also true of Darwin.

This adds the following targets to cmake. These can be used to build and link only specific parts of a backend, instead of having to link the whole backend.
- AllTargetsAsmPrinters, AllTargetsAsmParsers, AllTargetsDescs, AllTargetsDisassemblers, AllTargetsInfos
A typical use for these is instead of linking ${LLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD}. This commit changes llvm-mc to show how to use the new targets.

formatted_raw_ostream is a wrapper over another stream to add column and line
number tracking.
It is used only for asm printing.
This patch moves the its creation down to where we know we are printing
assembly. This has the following advantages:
* Simpler lifetime management: std::unique_ptr
* We don't compute column and line number of object files :-)

The code this patch removes was there to make sure the text sections went
before the dwarf sections. That is necessary because MachO uses offsets
relative to the start of the file, so adding a section can change relaxations.
The dwarf sections were being printed at the start just to produce symbols
pointing at the start of those sections.
The underlying issue was fixed in r231898. The dwarf sections are now printed
when they are about to be used, which is after we printed the text sections.
To make sure we don't regress, the patch makes the MachO streamer assert
if CodeGen puts anything unexpected after the DWARF sections.
