Now the only method to configure ELF section's content and size is to assign
a hexadecimal string to the `Content` field. Unfortunately this way is
completely useless when you need to declare a really large section.
To solve this problem this patch adds one more optional field `Size`
to the `RawContentSection` structure. When yaml2obj generates an ELF file
it uses the following algorithm:
1. If both `Content` and `Size` fields are missed create an empty section.
2. If only `Content` field is missed take section length from the `Size`
field and fill the section by zero.
3. If only `Size` field is missed create a section using data from
the `Content` field.
4. If both `Content` and `Size` fields are provided validate that the `Size`
value is not less than size of `Content` data. Than take section length
from the `Size`, fill beginning of the section by `Content` and the rest
by zero.
Examples
--------
* Create a section 0x10000 bytes long filled by zero
Name: .data
Type: SHT_PROGBITS
Flags: [ SHF_ALLOC ]
Size: 0x10000
* Create a section 0x10000 bytes long starting from 'CA' 'FE' 'BA' 'BE'
Name: .data
Type: SHT_PROGBITS
Flags: [ SHF_ALLOC ]
Content: CAFEBABE
Size: 0x10000

This reverts commit r208934.
The patch depends on aliases to GEPs with non zero offsets. That is not
supported and fairly broken.
The good news is that GlobalAlias is being redesigned and will have support
for offsets, so this patch should be a nice match for it.

Patch replaces old isEquivalentGEP implementation, and changes type of
comparison result from bool (equal or not) to {-1, 0, 1} (less, equal, greater).
This patch belongs to patch series that improves MergeFunctions
performance time from O(N*N) to O(N*log(N)).

TableGen has a fairly dubious heuristic to decide whether an alias should be
printed: does the alias have lest operands than the real instruction. This is
bad enough (particularly with no way to override it), but it should at least be
calculated consistently for both strings.
This patch implements that logic: first get the *correct* string for the
variant, in the same way as the Matcher, without guessing; then count the
number of whitespace chars.
There are basically 4 changes this brings about after the previous
commits; all of these appear to be good, so I have changed the tests:
+ ARM64: we print "neg X, Y" instead of "sub X, xzr, Y".
+ ARM64: we skip implicit "uxtx" and "uxtw" modifiers.
+ Sparc: we print "mov A, B" instead of "or %g0, A, B".
+ Sparc: we print "fcmpX A, B" instead of "fcmpX %fcc0, A, B"

The canonical syntax is "fcmXY ..., #0.0".
This will be tested when the TableGen "should I print this Alias" heuristic is
fixed (very soon).
llvm-svn: 208968
This alias appears not to have an appropriate PrintMethod. Normally, I'd look
into it, but since AArch64 is disappearing soon it's probably not worth it.
This will be tested when the TableGen "should I print this Alias" heuristic is
fixed (very soon).
llvm-svn: 208967
These aliases are handled entirely in C++ and only having TableGen InstAliases
for some of them was confusing LLVM.
This will be tested when the TableGen "should I print this Alias" heuristic is
fixed (very soon).
llvm-svn: 208966
Certainly not without having a custom PrintMethod to invert the immediate
beforehand. But probably not at all.

fixed (very soon).
llvm-svn: 208964
In AT&T syntax, we should probably print the full "movl" or "movw". TableGen
used to ignore these aliases because it was miscounting the number of operands.
This fixes the issue.

heuristic is fixed (very soon).

Actually, MOV sometimes is canonical, but for now this is a better
approximation than what's there.

llvm-svn: 208962
You can perform (say) an fcmle operation by swapping the operands on an fcmge,
but it shouldn't be printed like that.
This will be tested when the TableGen "should I print this Alias" heuristic is
fixed (very soon).
llvm-svn: 208961
We accept "ldr w3, [x1, #-1]" as a convenience, but we should still print the
canonical "ldur" form.
This will be tested when the TableGen "should I print this Alias" heuristic is
fixed (very soon).
llvm-svn: 208960
If an ANDS instruction has Rd == ZR it should be printed as TST since
its only effect is on the flags register NZCV.

heuristic is fixed (very soon).
llvm-svn: 208959
MOV is almost always the right thing to print if possile. People understand it.

llvm-svn: 208958
For example, the full instruction "sub w0, wzr, w1, uxtw" could print as either
"neg w0, w1" or "sub w0, wzr, w1". The former is better.
This will be tested when the TableGen "should I print this Alias" heuristic is
fixed (very soon).
llvm-svn: 208957
You can write "lslv w0, w1, w2" (probably for legacy reasons), but it should be
printed as simply "lsl".

Add some Windows on ARM specific library calls. These are provided by msvcrt,
and can be used to perform integer to floating-point conversions (and
vice-versa) mirroring similar functions in the RTABI.

Sometimes a LLVM compilation may take more time then a client would like to
wait for. The problem is that it is not possible to safely suspend the LLVM
thread from the outside. When the timing is bad it might be possible that the
LLVM thread holds a global mutex and this would block any progress in any other
thread.
This commit adds a new yield callback function that can be registered with a
context. LLVM will try to yield by calling this callback function, but there is
no guaranteed frequency. LLVM will only do so if it can guarantee that
suspending the thread won't block any forward progress in other LLVM contexts
in the same process.
Once the client receives the call back it can suspend the thread safely and
resume it at another time.

Allow multiple raw profiles to coexist in a single .profraw file,
given the following conditions:
- Zero padding at the end of or between profiles will be skipped.
- Each profile must start with a valid header.
- Mixing endianness or pointer sizes in concatenated profiles files is
not allowed.
This is needed to handle cases where a program's shared libraries are
profiled as well as the main executable itself, as we'll need to emit
each executable's counters. Combining the tables in the runtime would
be expensive for the instrumented program.

This commit implements two command line switches -global-merge-on-external
and -global-merge-aligned, and both of them are false by default, so this
optimization is disabled by default for all targets.
For ARM64, some back-end behaviors need to be tuned to get this optimization
further enabled.

Since type units in the dwo file are handled by a debug aware tool, they
don't need to leverage the ELF comdat grouping to implement
deduplication. Avoid creating all the .group sections for these as a
space optimization.

It is more appropriate than the current situation, when one flag
(AbsoluteFilePath) is relevant only if another flag is set.
This refactoring would also simplify fetching the short function name
(stored in DW_AT_name) instead of a linkage name returned currently.
No functionality change.

The allocas going out of scope are immediately killed by the return
instruction.
This is a resend of r208912, which was committed accidentally.
