All file formats only needed 16-bits right now which is enough to fit
in to the padding with other fields.
This reduces the size of MCSymbol to 24-bytes on a 64-bit system. The

Given that alignments are always powers of 2, just encode it this way.
This matches how we encode alignment on IR GlobalValue's for example.
This compresses the CommonAlign member down to 5 bits which allows it
to pack better with the surrounding fields.

This is part of an effort to pack the average MCSymbol down to 24 bytes.
The HasName bit was pushing the size of the bitfield over to another word,
so this change uses a PointerIntPair to fit in it to unused bits of a
PointerUnion.

This is a reapplication of r239440 which was reverted in r239441.
There are no changes to this patch from then, but this had instead exposed
a bug in .thumb_set which was fixed in r240318. Having fixed that bug, it
is now safe to re-apply this code.
Original commit message below:
It wasn't possible to have a variable Symbol with offset or 'isCommon' so
this just enables better packing of the MCSymbol class.

Based on feedback to r239428 by David Blaikie, use const_cast to reduce
duplication of the const and non-const versions of getNameEntryPtr.
Also have that method return the pointer to the name directly instead
of users having to then get the name from the union.
Finally, add a FIXME that we should use a static_assert once available in
the new operator.

This should hopefully fix the 32-bit bots which were allocating space for a pointer
but needed to be aligned to 64-bits.
Now we allocate enough space for a uint64_t and a pointer and cast to the appropriate storage
llvm-svn: 239428
Similarly to User which allocates a number of Use's prior to the this pointer,
allocate space for the Name* for MCSymbol only when we need a name.
Given that an MCSymbol is 48-bytes on 64-bit systems, this saves a decent % of space.
Given the verify_uselistorder test case with debug info and llc, 50k symbols have names
out of 700k so this optimises for the common case of temporary unnamed symbols.

Fixes most of the test suite on Windows with clang-cl.
I'm not sure why the test suite was passing with MSVC 2013. Maybe they
changed their behavior and we are emulating their old sign extension
behavior. I think this deserves more investigation, but I want to green
the bot first.

Shave a pointer off of `MCSymbolName` by storing `StringMapEntry<bool>*`
instead of `StringRef`. This brings `sizeof(MCSymbol)` down to 64 on
64-bit platforms, a nice round number. My profile showed memory
dropping from 914 MB down to 908 MB, roughly 0.7%. Other than memory
usage, no functionality change here.

see r236629 for details.)

Save a pointer for each `MCSymbol`, bringing `llc` memory usage down

This starts merging MCSection and MCSectionData.
There are a few issues with the current split between MCSection and
MCSectionData.
* It optimizes the the not as important case. We want the production
of .o files to be really fast, but the split puts the information used
for .o emission in a separate data structure.
* The ELF/COFF/MachO hierarchy is not represented in MCSectionData,
leading to some ad-hoc ways to represent the various flags.
* It makes it harder to remember where each item is.
The attached patch starts merging the two by moving the alignment from
MCSectionData to MCSection.
Most of the patch is actually just dropping 'const', since
MCSectionData is mutable, but MCSection was not.
llvm-svn: 237936
Finally remove the `MCSymbolData::Symbol` pointer. It was still being
used to track whether `MCSymbolData` had been initialized, but this is
better tracked by the bitfield in `MCSymbol`.
The only caller of `MCSymbolData::initialize()` was `MCAssembler`, which
(other than `Symbol`) passed in all-0 values. Replace all that
indirection with a default constructor.
The main point is a cleanup (and there's more cleanup to do), but there
are also some small memory savings. I measured ~989 MB down to ~975 MB,
cutting a little over 1% off the top of `llc`.
(I'm looking at `llc` memory usage on `verify-uselistorder.lto.opt.bc`;

Make the back-pointer from `MCSymbolData` to `MCSymbol` private,
preparing to remove the back pointer entirely. I've already updated all
the users, although for now it's still used to indicate whether
`MCSymbol::Data` has been initialized.
llvm-svn: 237868
Turn `MCSymbolData` into a field inside of `MCSymbol`. Keep all the old
API alive for now, so that consumers can be updated in a later commit.
This means we still temporarily need the back pointer from
`MCSymbolData` to `MCSymbol`, but I'll remove it in a follow-up.
This optimizes for object emission over assembly emission. By removing
the `DenseMap` in `MCAssembler`, llc memory usage drops from around 1040
MB to 1001 MB (3.8%).

Currently symbol names are printed in quotes if it contains something

Fixes PR19582.
Previously, when an asm assignment (.set or =) was created, we would look up
the section immediately in MCSymbol::setVariableValue. This caused symbols
to receive the wrong section if the RHS of the assignment had not been seen
yet. This had a knock-on effect in the object file emitters, causing them
to emit extra symbols, or to give symbols the wrong visibility or the wrong
section. For example, in the following asm:
.data
.Llocal:
.text
leaq .Llocal1(%rip), %rdi
.Llocal1 = .Llocal2
.Llocal2 = .Llocal
the first assignment would give .Llocal1 a null section, which would never get
fixed up by the second assignment. This would cause the ELF object file emitter
to consider .Llocal1 to be an undefined symbol and give it external linkage,
even though .Llocal1 should not have been emitted at all in the object file.
Or in the following asm:
alias_to_local = Ltmp0
Ltmp0:
the Mach-O object file emitter would give the alias_to_local symbol a n_type
of N_SECT and a n_sect of 0. This is invalid under the Mach-O specification,
which requires N_SECT symbols to receive a non-zero section number if the
symbol is defined in a section in the object file.
https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/MachORuntime/#//apple_ref/c/tag/nlist
After this change we do not look up the section when the assignment is created,
but instead look it up on demand and store it in Section, which is treated
as a cache if the symbol is a variable symbol.
This change also fixes a bug in MCExpr::FindAssociatedSection. Previously,
if we saw a subtraction, we would return the first referenced section, even in
cases where we should have been returning the absolute pseudo-section. Now we
always return the absolute pseudo-section for expressions that subtract two
section-derived expressions. This isn't always correct (e.g. if one of the
sections ends up being laid out at an absolute address), but it's probably
the best we can do without more context.
This allows us to remove code in two places where we appear to have been
working around this bug, in MachObjectWriter::markAbsoluteVariableSymbols
and in X86AsmPrinter::EmitStartOfAsmFile.
