Summary:
The default behavior is to omit the .section directive for .text, .data,
and sometimes .bss, but some targets may want to omit this directive for
other sections too.
The AMDGPU backend will uses this to emit a simplified syntax for section
switches. For example if the section directive is not omitted (current
behavior), section switches to .hsatext will be printed like this:
.section .hsatext,#alloc,#execinstr,#write
This is actually wrong, because .hsatext has some custom STT_* flags,
which MC doesn't know how to print or parse.
If the section directive is omitted (made possible by this commit),
section switches will be printed like this:
.hsatext
The motivation for this patch is to make it possible to emit sections
with custom STT_* flags without having to teach MC about all the target
specific STT_* flags.

This matches other assemblers and is less unexpected (e.g. PR23227).
On ELF, I tried binutils gas v2.24 and nasm 2.10.09, and they both
agree on LShr. On COFF, I couldn't get my hands on an assembler yet,
so don't change the behavior. For now, don't change it on non-AArch64
Darwin either, as the other assembler is gas v1.38, which does an AShr.
llvm-svn: 235963
Defaulting to AShr without consulting the target MCAsmInfo isn't OK.
Add a flag to fix that. Keep it off for now: target migrations will
follow in separate commits.

Currently symbol names are printed in quotes if it contains something
outside of the arbitrary set of characters that isAcceptableChar tests
for. On somem targets, it is never OK to print a symbol name in quotes
so allow targets to opt out of this behavior.

This is affecting the behavior of some ObjC++ / AArch64 test cases on Darwin.

Use the MCAsmInfo instead of the DataLayout, and allow

Summary:
".weak" symbols cannot be consumed by ptxas (PR21685). This patch makes the
weak directive in MCAsmPrinter customizable, and disables emitting ".weak"
symbols for NVPTX.

Every target we support has support for assembly that looks like
a = b - c
.long a
What is special about MachO is that the above combination suppresses the
production of a relocation.
With this change we avoid producing the intermediary labels when they don't
add any value.

This is an enum class, and will be appropriately prefixed, making the encoding
type prefix redundant. No change to any uses as the use of this was not yet
introduced.
llvm-svn: 216893
In assembly the expression a=b is parsed as an assignment, so it should be
printed as one.
This remove a truly horrible hack for producing a label with "a=.". It would
be used by codegen but would never be reached by the asm parser. Sorry I
missed this when it was first committed.

Most Windows platforms use auxiliary data for unwinding. This information is
stored in the .pdata section. The encoding format for the data differs between
architectures and Windows variants. Windows MIPS and Alpha use identical
formats; Alpha64 is the same with different widths. Windows x86_64 and Itanium
share the representation. All Windows CE entries are identical irrespective of
the architecture. ARMv7 (Windows [NT] on ARM) has its own format.
This enumeration will become the differentiator once the windows EH emission
infrastructure is generalised, allowing us to emit the necessary unwinding
information for Windows on ARM.

The upcoming ARM64 backend doesn't have section-relative relocations,
so we give each section its own symbol to provide this functionality.
Of course, it doesn't need to appear in the final executable, so
linker-private is the best kind for this purpose.

1) When creating a .debug_* section and instead create a .zdebug_
section.
2) When creating a fragment in a .zdebug_* section, make it a compressed
fragment.
3) When computing the size of a compressed section, compress the data
and use the size of the compressed data.
4) Emit the compressed bytes.
Also, check that only if a section has a compressed fragment, then that
is the only fragment in the section.
Assert-fail if the fragment's data is modified after it is compressed.

This commit moves getSLEB128Size() and getULEB128Size() from

Summary:
AsmPrinter::EmitInlineAsm() will no longer use the EmitRawText() call for
targets with mature MC support. Such targets will always parse the inline
assembly (even when emitting assembly). Targets without mature MC support
continue to use EmitRawText() for assembly output.
The hasRawTextSupport() check in AsmPrinter::EmitInlineAsm() has been replaced
with MCAsmInfo::UseIntegratedAs which when true, causes the integrated assembler
to parse inline assembly (even when emitting assembly output). UseIntegratedAs
is set to true for targets that consider any failure to parse valid assembly
to be a bug. Target specific subclasses generally enable the integrated
assembler in their constructor. The default value can be overridden with
-no-integrated-as.
All tests that rely on inline assembly supporting invalid assembly (for example,
those that use mnemonics such as 'foo' or 'hello world') have been updated to
disable the integrated assembler.
Changes since review (and last commit attempt):
- Fixed test failures that were missed due to configuration of local build.
(fixes crash.ll and a couple others).
- Fixed tests that happened to pass because the local build was on X86
(should fix 2007-12-17-InvokeAsm.ll)
- mature-mc-support.ll's should no longer require all targets to be compiled.
(should fix ARM and PPC buildbots)
- Object output (-filetype=obj and similar) now forces the integrated assembler
to be enabled regardless of default setting or -no-integrated-as.
(should fix SystemZ buildbots)

Modern versions of OSX/Darwin's ld (ld64 > 97.17) have an optimisation present that allows the back end to omit relocations (and replace them with an absolute difference) for FDE some text section refs.
This patch allows a backend to opt-in to this behaviour by setting "DwarfFDESymbolsUseAbsDiff". At present, this is only enabled for modern x86 OSX ports.

Before this patch any program that wanted to know the final symbol name of a
GlobalValue had to link with Target.
This patch implements a compromise solution where the mangler uses DataLayout.
This way, any tool that already links with Target (llc, clang) gets the exact
behavior as before and new IR files can be mangled without linking with Target.
With this patch the mangler is constructed with just a DataLayout and DataLayout
is extended to include the information the Mangler needs.

ARM symbol variants are written with parens instead of @ like this:
.word __GLOBAL_I_a(target1)
This commit adds support for parsing these symbol variants in
expressions. We introduce a new flag to MCAsmInfo that indicates the
parser should use parens to parse the symbol variant. The expression
parser is modified to look for symbol variants using parens instead
of @ when the corresponding MCAsmInfo flag is true.
The MCAsmInfo parens flag is enabled only for ARM on ELF.
By adding this flag to MCAsmInfo, we are able to get rid of
redundant ARM-specific symbol variants and use the generic variants
instead (e.g. VK_GOT instead of VK_ARM_GOT). We use the new
UseParensForSymbolVariant attribute in MCAsmInfo to correctly print
the symbol variants for arm.
To achive this we need to keep a handle to the MCAsmInfo in the
MCSymbolRefExpr class that we can check when printing the symbol
variant.
Updated Tests:
Changed case of symbol variant to match the generic kind.

Accepting quotes is a property of an assembler, not of an object file. For
example, ELF can support any names for sections and symbols, but the gnu
assembler only accepts quotes in some contexts and llvm-mc in a few more.
LLVM should not produce different symbols based on a guess about which assembler
will be reading the code it is printing.

This is another (final?) stab at making us able to parse our own asm output
on Windows.
Symbols on Windows often contain @'s and ?'s in their names. Our asm parser
didn't like this. ?'s were not allowed, and @'s were intepreted as trying to
reference PLT/GOT/etc.
We can't just add quotes around the bad names, since e.g. for MinGW, we use gas
to assemble, and it doesn't like quotes in some places (notably in .def
directives).
This commit makes us allow ?'s in symbol names, and @'s in symbol names for MS
assembly.

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.

I've been comparing the object file output of LLVM's integrated
assembler against the external assembler on PowerPC, and one
area where differences still remain are in DWARF sections.
In particular, the GNU assembler generates .debug_frame and
.debug_line sections using a code alignment factor of 4, since
all PowerPC instructions have size 4 and must be aligned to a
multiple of 4. However, current MC code hard-codes a code
alignment factor of 1.
This patch changes this by adding a "minimum instruction alignment"
data element to MCAsmInfo and using this as code alignment factor.
This requires passing a MCContext into MCDwarfLineAddr::Encode
and MCDwarfLineAddr::EncodeAdvanceLoc. Note that one caller,
MCDwarfLineAddr::Write, didn't actually have that information
available. However, it turns out that this routine is in fact
never used in the whole code base, so the patch simply removes
it. If it turns out to be needed again at a later time, it
could be re-added with an updated interface.
