Previously ExtBinary profile format only supports compression using zlib for
profile symbol list. In this patch, we extend the compression support to any
section. User can select some or all of the sections to compress. In an
experiment, for a 45M profile in ExtBinary format, compressing name table
reduced its size to 24M, and compressing all the sections reduced its size
to 11M.

profile symbol list.
Currently many existing users using profile-sample-accurate want to reduce
code size as much as possible. Their use cases are different from the scenario
profile symbol list tries to handle -- the major motivation of adding profile
symbol list is to get the major memory/code size saving without introduce
performance regression. So to keep the behavior of profile-sample-accurate
unchanged, we think decoupling these two things and using a new flag to
control the handling of profile symbol list may be better.
When profile-sample-accurate and the new flag profile-accurate-for-symsinlist
are both present, since profile-sample-accurate is a user assertion we let it
have a higher precedence.

is enabled.
We can save memory and reduce binary size significantly by enabling
ProfileSampleAccurate. However when ProfileSampleAccurate is true,
function without sample will be regarded as cold and this could
potentially cause performance regression.
To minimize the potential negative performance impact, we want to be
a little conservative here saying if a function shows up in the profile,
no matter as outline instance, inline instance or call targets, treat
the function as not being cold. This will handle the cases such as most
callsites of a function are inlined in sampled binary (thus outline copy
don't get any sample) but not inlined in current build (because of source
code drift, imprecise debug information, or the callsites are all cold
individually but not cold accumulatively...), so that the outline function
showing up as cold in sampled binary will actually not be cold after current
build. After the change, such function will be treated as not cold even
profile-sample-accurate is enabled.
At the same time we lower the hot criteria of callsiteIsHot check when
profile-sample-accurate is enabled. callsiteIsHot is used to determined
whether a callsite is hot and qualified for early inlining. When
profile-sample-accurate is enabled, functions without profile will be
regarded as cold and much less inlining will happen in CGSCC inlining pass,
so we can worry less about size increase and be aggressive to allow more
early inlining to happen for warm callsites and it is helpful for performance
overall.

cold versus function being newly added.
This is the second half of https://reviews.llvm.org/D66374.
Profile symbol list is the collection of function symbols showing up in

function being cold versus function being newly added. Profile symbol list
is only added for profile with ExtBinary format.

a function without profile will be regarded as cold only when it is
contained in that list.

Summary: It is possible that multiple indirect call targets have been promoted for a single callsite from the profiled binary. Current implementation repeats promotion for all these targets as far as the callsite itself is hot (the callsite is assumed to be hot if any one of these targets was "hot" during the profiling). However, even when one of the ICPed target is hot other targets may not, and we should not repeat promotion for "cold" targets.

Summary:
Profile sample files include the number of times each entry or inlined
call site is sampled. This is translated into the entry count metadta
on functions.
When sample data is being read, if a call site that was inlined
in the sample program is considered cold and not inlined, then
the entry count of the out-of-line functions does not reflect
the current compilation.
In this patch, we note call sites where the function was not inlined
and as a last action of the sample profile loading, we update the
called function's entry count to reflect the calls from these
call sites which are not included in the profile file.

This can be used to preserve profiling information across codebase
changes that have widespread impact on mangled names, but across which
most profiling data should still be usable. For example, when switching
from libstdc++ to libc++, or from the old libstdc++ ABI to the new ABI,
or even from a 32-bit to a 64-bit build.
The user can provide a remapping file specifying parts of mangled names
that should be treated as equivalent (eg, std::__1 should be treated as
equivalent to std::__cxx11), and profile data will be treated as
applying to a particular function if its name is equivalent to the name
of a function in the profile data under the provided equivalences. See
the documentation change for a description of how this is configured.
Remapping is supported for both sample-based profiling and instruction
profiling. We do not support remapping indirect branch target
information, but all other profile data should be remapped
appropriately.
Support is only added for the new pass manager. If someone wants to also
add support for this for the old pass manager, doing so should be
straightforward.

We found current sampleFDO had a performance issue when triaging a regression.
For a callsite with inline instance in the profile, even if hot callsite inliner
cannot inline it, it may still execute enough times and should not be treated as
cold in regular inliner later. However, currently if such callsite is not inlined
by hot callsite inliner, and the BB where the callsite locates doesn't get
samples from other instructions inside of it, the callsite will have no profile
metadata annotated. In regular inliner cost analysis, if the callsite has no
profile annotated and its caller has profile information, it will be treated as
cold.
The fix changes the isCallsiteHot check and chooses to compare
CallsiteTotalSamples with hot cutoff value computed by ProfileSummaryInfo.

In order to set breakpoints on labels and list source code around
labels, we need collect debug information for labels, i.e., label
name, the function label belong, line number in the file, and the
address label located. In order to keep these information in LLVM
IR and to allow backend to generate debug information correctly.
We create a new kind of metadata for labels, DILabel. The format
of DILabel is
!DILabel(scope: !1, name: "foo", file: !2, line: 3)
We hope to keep debug information as much as possible even the
code is optimized. So, we create a new kind of intrinsic for label
metadata to avoid the metadata is eliminated with basic block.
The intrinsic will keep existing if we keep it from optimized out.
The format of the intrinsic is
llvm.dbg.label(metadata !1)
It has only one argument, that is the DILabel metadata. The
intrinsic will follow the label immediately. Backend could get the
label metadata through the intrinsic's parameter.
We also create DIBuilder API for labels to be used by Frontend.
Frontend could use createLabel() to allocate DILabel objects, and use
insertLabel() to insert llvm.dbg.label intrinsic in LLVM IR.

cold. Otherwise we end up treating these functions conservatively

Instead, for SamplePGO use -1 when there are no samples, and change
getEntryCount to return None when the value is -1.

Summary:
The New Pass Manager infrastructure was forgetting to keep around the optimization remark yaml file that the compiler might have been producing. This meant setting the option to '-' for stdout worked, but setting it to a filename didn't give file output (presumably it was deleted because compilation didn't explicitly keep it). This change just ensures that the file is kept if compilation succeeds.
So far I have updated one of the optimization remark output tests to add a version with the new pass manager. It is my intention for this patch to also include changes to all tests that use `-opt-remark-output=` but I wanted to get the code patch ready for review while I was making all those changes.
