In the textual format, `noduplicates` means no COMDAT/section group
deduplication is performed. Therefore, if both sets of sections are retained, and
they happen to define strong external symbols with the same names,
there will be a duplicate definition linker error.
In PE/COFF, the selection kind lowers to `IMAGE_COMDAT_SELECT_NODUPLICATES`.
The name describes the corollary instead of the immediate semantics. The name
can cause confusion to other binary formats (ELF, wasm) which have implemented/
want to implement the "no deduplication" selection kind. Rename it to be clearer.

We need the compiler generated variable to override the weak symbol of
the same name inside the profile runtime, but using LinkOnceODRLinkage
results in weak symbol being emitted in which case the symbol selected
by the linker is going to depend on the order of inputs which can be
fragile.
This change replaces the use of weak definition inside the runtime with
a weak alias. We place the compiler generated symbol inside a COMDAT
group so dead definition can be garbage collected by the linker.
We also disable the use of runtime counter relocation on Darwin since
Mach-O doesn't support weak external references, but Darwin already uses
a different continous mode that relies on overmapping so runtime counter
relocation isn't needed there.

When using -fprofile-list to selectively apply instrumentation only
to certain files or functions, we may end up with a binary that doesn't
have any counters in the case where no files were selected. However,
because on Linux and Fuchsia, we pass -u__llvm_profile_runtime, the
runtime would still be pulled in and incur some non-trivial overhead,
especially in the case when the continuous or runtime counter relocation
mode is being used. A better way would be to pull in the profile runtime
only when needed by declaring the __llvm_profile_runtime symbol in the
translation unit only when needed.
This approach was already used prior to 9a041a75221ca, but we changed it
to always generate the __llvm_profile_runtime due to a TAPI limitation.
Since TAPI is only used on Mach-O platforms, we could use the early
emission of __llvm_profile_runtime there, and on other platforms we
could change back to the earlier approach where the symbol is generated
later only when needed. We can stop passing -u__llvm_profile_runtime to
the linker on Linux and Fuchsia since the generated undefined symbol in
each translation unit that needed it serves the same purpose.

Many optimizers (e.g. GlobalOpt/ConstantMerge) do not respect linker semantics
for comdat and may not discard the sections as a unit.
The interconnected `__llvm_prf_{cnts,data}` sections (in comdat for ELF)
are similar to D97432: `__profd_` is not directly referenced, so
`__profd_` may be discarded while `__profc_` is retained, breaking the
interconnection. We currently conservatively add all such sections to
`llvm.used` and let the linker do GC for ELF.
In D97448, we will change GlobalObject's in the llvm.used list to use SHF_GNU_RETAIN,

D68041 placed `__profc_`, `__profd_` and (if exists) `__profvp_` in different comdat groups.
There are some issues:
* Cost: one or two additional section headers (`.group` section(s)): 64 or 128 bytes on ELF64.
* `__profc_`, `__profd_` and (if exists) `__profvp_` should be retained or
discarded. Placing them into separate comdat groups is conceptually inferior.
* If the prevailing group does not include `__profvp_` (value profiling not
used) but a non-prevailing group from another translation unit has `__profvp_`
(the function is inlined into another and triggers value profiling), there
will be a stray `__profvp_` if --gc-sections is not enabled.
This has been fixed by 3d6f53018f845e893ad34f64ff2851a2e5c3ba1d.
Actually, we can reuse an existing symbol (we choose `__profd_`) as the group
signature to avoid a string in the string table (the sole reason that D68041
could improve code size is that `__profv_` was an otherwise unused symbol which
wasted string table space). This saves one or two section headers.

Revise the coverage mapping format to reduce binary size by:
1. Naming function records and marking them `linkonce_odr`, and

This shrinks the size of llc's coverage segment by 82% (334MB -> 62MB)
and speeds up end-to-end single-threaded report generation by 10%. For
reference the compressed name data in llc is 81MB (__llvm_prf_names).
Rationale for changes to the format:
- With the current format, most coverage function records are discarded.
E.g., more than 97% of the records in llc are *duplicate* placeholders
for functions visible-but-not-used in TUs. Placeholders *are* used to
show under-covered functions, but duplicate placeholders waste space.
- We reached general consensus about giving (1) a try at the 2017 code

duplicates is simpler than alternatives like teaching build systems
about a coverage-aware database/module/etc on the side.
- Revising the format is expensive due to the backwards compatibility
requirement, so we might as well compress filenames while we're at it.
This shrinks the encoded filenames in llc by 86% (12MB -> 1.6MB).

We have to avoid using a GOT relocation to access the bias variable,
setting the hidden visibility achieves that.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D73529
This is an alternative to the continous mode that was implemented in
D68351. This mode relies on padding and the ability to mmap a file over
the existing mapping which is generally only available on POSIX systems
and isn't suitable for other platforms.
This change instead introduces the ability to relocate counters at
runtime using a level of indirection. On every counter access, we add a
bias to the counter address. This bias is stored in a symbol that's
provided by the profile runtime and is initially set to zero, meaning no
relocation. The runtime can mmap the profile into memory at abitrary
location, and set bias to the offset between the original and the new
counter location, at which point every subsequent counter access will be
to the new location, which allows updating profile directly akin to the
continous mode.
The advantage of this implementation is that doesn't require any special
OS support. The disadvantage is the extra overhead due to additional
instructions required for each counter access (overhead both in terms of
binary size and performance) plus duplication of counters (i.e. one copy
in the binary itself and another copy that's mmapped).

For COFF, a comdat group is really a symbol marked
IMAGE_COMDAT_SELECT_ANY and zero or more other symbols marked
IMAGE_COMDAT_SELECT_ASSOCIATIVE. Typically the associative symbols in
the group are not external and are not referenced by other TUs, they are
things like debug info, C++ dynamic initializers, or other section
registration schemes. The Visual C++ linker reports a duplicate symbol
error for symbols marked IMAGE_COMDAT_SELECT_ASSOCIATIVE even if they
would be discarded after handling the leader symbol.

This fixes relocations against __profd_ symbols in discarded sections,
which is PR41380.
In general, instrumentation happens very early, and optimization and
inlining happens afterwards. The counters for a function are calculated
early, and after inlining, counters for an inlined function may be
widely referenced by other functions.
For C++ inline functions of all kinds (linkonce_odr &
available_externally mainly), instr profiling wants to deduplicate these
__profc_ and __profd_ globals. Otherwise the binary would be quite
large.
I made __profd_ and __profc_ comdat in r355044, but I chose to make
__profd_ internal. At the time, I was only dealing with coverage, and in
that case, none of the instrumentation needs to reference __profd_.
However, if you use PGO, then instrumentation passes add calls to
__llvm_profile_instrument_range which reference __profd_ globals. The
solution is to make these globals externally visible by using
linkonce_odr linkage for data as was done for counters.
This is safe because PGO adds a CFG hash to the names of the data and
counter globals, so if different TUs have different globals, they will
get different data and counter arrays.
