Summary:
Large-model was added first. With the addition of support for multiple PIC
models in LLVM, now add small-model PIC for 32-bit PowerPC, SysV4 ABI. This
generates more optimal code, for shared libraries with less than about 16380
data objects.

With this patch MCDisassembler::getInstruction takes an ArrayRef<uint8_t>
instead of a MemoryObject.
Even on X86 there is a maximum size an instruction can have. Given
that, it seems way simpler and more efficient to just pass an ArrayRef
to the disassembler instead of a MemoryObject and have it do a virtual
call every time it wants some extra bytes.

Referencing one symbol from another in the same section does not
generally require a relocation. However, the MS linker has a feature
called /INCREMENTAL which enables incremental links. It achieves this
by creating thunks to the actual function and redirecting all
relocations to point to the thunk.
This breaks down with the old scheme if you have a function which
references, say, itself. On x86_64, we would use %rip relative
addressing to reference the start of the function from out current
position. This would lead to miscompiles because other references might
reference the thunk instead, breaking function pointer equality.
This fixes PR21520.

This adds const to a few methods that already return const references or

This patch handles the case where both fragments are part of the first atom
in a section and there is no corresponding symbol to that atom.
This fixes pr21328.
llvm-svn: 221304
When LLVM emits DWARF call frame information, it currently creates a local,
section-relative symbol in the code section, which is pointed to by a
relocation on the .eh_frame section. However, for C++ we emit some functions in
section groups, and the SysV ABI has some rules to make it easier to remove
these sections
(http://www.sco.com/developers/gabi/latest/ch4.sheader.html#section_group_rules):
A symbol table entry with STB_LOCAL binding that is defined relative to one
of a group's sections, and that is contained in a symbol table section that is
not part of the group, must be discarded if the group members are discarded.
References to this symbol table entry from outside the group are not allowed.
This means that we need to use the function symbol for the relocation, not a
temporary symbol.
There was a comment in the code claiming that the local symbol was used to
avoid creating a relocation, but a relocation must be created anyway as the
code and CFI are in different sections.

Summary:
Currently when emitting a label, a new data fragment is created for it if the
current fragment isn't a data fragment.
This change instead enqueues the label and attaches it to the next fragment
(e.g. created for the next instruction) if possible.
When bundle alignment is not enabled, this has no functionality change (it
just results in fewer extra fragments being created). For bundle alignment,
previously labels would point to the beginning of the bundle padding instead
of the beginning of the emitted instruction. This was not only less efficient
(e.g. jumping to the nops instead of past them) but also led to miscalculation
of the address of the GOT (since MC uses a label difference rather than
emitting a "." symbol).

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.

The only difference from r219829 is using
getOrCreateSectionSymbol(*ELFSec)
instead of
GetOrCreateSymbol(ELFSec->getSectionName())
in ELFObjectWriter which causes us to use the correct section symbol even if
we have multiple sections with the same name.
Original messages:
r219829:
Correctly handle references to section symbols.
When processing assembly like
.long .text
we were creating a new undefined symbol .text. GAS on the other hand would
handle that as a reference to the .text section.
This patch implements that by creating the section symbols earlier so that
they are visible during asm parsing.
The patch also updates llvm-readobj to print the symbol number in the relocation
dump so that the test can differentiate between two sections with the same name.
r219835:
Allow forward references to section symbols.

Summary:
Currently an error is thrown if bundle alignment mode is set more than once
per module (either via the API or the .bundle_align_mode directive). This
change allows setting it multiple times as long as the alignment doesn't
change.
Also nested bundle_lock groups are currently not allowed. This change allows
them, with the effect that the group stays open until all nests are exited,
and if any of the bundle_lock directives has the align_to_end flag, the
group becomes align_to_end.
These changes make the bundle aligment simpler to use in the compiler, and
also better match the corresponding support in GNU as.

COFF normally doesn't allow us to describe the alignment of COMMON
symbols.
It turns out that most linkers use the symbol size as a hint as to how
aligned the symbol should be.
However the BFD folks have added a .drectve command, which we
now support as of r219229, that allows us to specify the alignment
precisely. With this in mind, stop rounding sizes up.

The GNU linker supports an -aligncomm directive that allows for power-of-2

Nico Rieck added support for this 32-bit COFF relocation some time ago
for Win64 stuff. It appears that as an oversight, the assembly output
used "foo"@IMGREL32 instead of "foo"@IMGREL, which is what we can parse.
Sadly, there were actually tests that took in IMGREL and put out
IMGREL32, and we didn't notice the inconsistency. Oh well. Now LLVM can
assemble it's own output with slightly more fidelity.

link.exe:
Fuzz testing has shown that COMMON symbols with size > 32 will always
have an alignment of at least 32 and all symbols with size < 32 will
have an alignment of at least the largest power of 2 less than the size
of the symbol.
binutils:
The BFD linker essentially work like the link.exe behavior but with
alignment 4 instead of 32. The BFD linker also supports an extension to
COFF which adds an -aligncomm argument to the .drectve section which
permits specifying a precise alignment for a variable but MC currently
doesn't support editing .drectve in this way.
With all of this in mind, we decide to play a little trick: we can
ensure that the alignment will be respected by bumping the size of the
global to it's alignment.

We had a few bugs:
- We were considering the GVKind instead of just looking at the section
characteristics
- We would never print out 'y' when a section was meant to be unreadable
- We would never print out 's' when a section was meant to be shared
- We translated IMAGE_SCN_MEM_DISCARDABLE to 'n' when it should've meant
IMAGE_SCN_LNK_REMOVE
llvm-svn: 218189
A problem with our old behavior becomes observable under x86-64 COFF
when we need a read-only GV which has an initializer which is referenced
using a relocation: we would mark the section as writable. Marking the
section as writable interferes with section merging.
This fixes PR21009.
