When MC was first added, targets could use hasRawTextSupport to keep features
working before they were added to the MC interface.
The design goal of MC is to provide an uniform api for printing assembly and
object files. Short of relaxations and other corner cases, a object file is
just another representation of the assembly.
It was never the intention that targets would keep doing things like
if (hasRawTextSupport())
Set flags in one way.
else
Set flags in another way.
When they do that they create two code paths and the object file is no longer
just another representation of the assembly. This also then requires testing
with llc -filetype=obj, which is extremelly brittle.
This patch removes some of these hacks by replacing them with smaller ones.
The ARM flag setting is trivial, so I just moved it to the constructor. For
Mips, the patch adds two temporary hack directives that allow the assembly
to represent the same things as the object file was already able to.
The hope is that the mips developers will replace the hack directives with
the same ones that gas uses and drop the -print-hack-directives flag.
I will also try to implement a target streamer interface, so that we can
move this out of the common code.
In summary, for any new work, two rules of the thumb are
* Don't use "llc -filetype=obj" in tests.
* Don't add calls to hasRawTextSupport.

This patch handles LLVM standalone assembler (llvm-mc) ELF flag setting based on input file
directive processing.
Mips assembly requires processing inline directives that directly and
indirectly affect the output ELF header flags. This patch handles one
".abicalls".
To process these directives we are following the model the code generator
uses by storing state in a container as we go through processing and when
we detect the end of input file processing, AsmParser is notified and we
update the ELF header flags through a MipsELFStreamer method with a call from
MCTargetAsmParser::emitEndOfAsmFile(MCStreamer &OutStreamer).
This patch will allow other targets the same functionality.

disassembled output alongside the instructions.
E.g., on a vector shuffle operation with a memory operand, disassembled
outputs are:
* Without the option:
vpshufd $-0x79, (%rsp), %xmm0
* With the option:
vpshufd $-0x79, (%rsp), %xmm0 ## Latency: 5
The printed latency is extracted from the schedule model available in the
disassembler context. Thus, this option has no effect if there is not a
scheduling model for the target.
This boils down to one may need to specify the CPU string, so that this
option could have an effect.
Note: Latency < 2 are not printed.

The binutils assembler supports a mode called DOLLAR_DOT which treats
the dollar sign token as a reference to the current program counter if
the dollar sign doesn't precede a constant or identifier.
This commit adds a new MCAsmInfo flag stating whether or not a given
target supports this interpretation of the dollar sign token; by
default, this flag is not enabled.
Further, enable this flag for PPC. The system assembler for AIX and
binutils both support using the dollar sign in this manner.
This fixes PR17353.

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.

Summary:
We indicate that the object files are safe by emitting a @feat.00
absolute address symbol. The address is presumably interpreted as a
bitfield of features that the compiler would like to enable. Bit 0 is
documented in the PE COFF spec to opt in to "registered SEH", which is
what /safeseh enables.
LLVM's object files are safe by default because LLVM doesn't know how to
produce SEH handlers.

In particular, this means we emit non-external symbols defined to
variables, such as aliases or absolute addresses.
This is needed to implement /safeseh, and it appears there was some
confusion about what symbols to emit previously.

Summary:
The '?' flag uses the last section group if the last had a section
group. We treat combining an explicit section group and the '?' as a
hard error.

There are more than one paths to where the frame information is emitted. Place
the call to generateCompactUnwindEncodings() into the method which outputs the
frame information, thus ensuring that the encoding is there for every path. This

We used to generate the compact unwind encoding from the machine
instructions. However, this had the problem that if the user used `-save-temps'
or compiled their hand-written `.s' file (with CFI directives), we wouldn't
generate the compact unwind encoding.
Move the algorithm that generates the compact unwind encoding into the
MCAsmBackend. This way we can generate the encoding whether the code is from a
`.ll' or `.s' file.

with a debug build) with this buggy .indirect_symbol directive usage:
% cat test.s
x: .indirect_symbol _y
The assertion is because it is trying to get the symbol index for the
symbol _y when it is writing out the indirect symbol table. This line of
code in MachObjectWriter::WriteObject() :
Write32(Asm.getSymbolData(*it->Symbol).getIndex());
And while there is a symbol _y it does not have any getSymbolData set which
is only done in MachObjectWriter::BindIndirectSymbols() for pointer sections
or stub sections. I added a check and an error in there to catch this in case
something slips through.
But to get a better error the parser should detect when a .indirect_symbol
directive is used and it is not in a pointer section or stub section. To make
that work I moved the handling of the indirect symbol out of the target
independent AsmParser code into the DarwinAsmParser code that can check
for the proper Mach-O section types.
