This patch adds support for GCC's -fstack-usage flag. With this flag, a stack
usage file (i.e., .su file) is generated for each input source file. The format
of the stack usage file is also similar to what is used by GCC. For each
function defined in the source file, a line with the following information is
produced in the .su file.
<source_file>:<line_number>:<function_name> <size_in_byte> <static/dynamic>
"Static" means that the function's frame size is static and the size info is an
accurate reflection of the frame size. While "dynamic" means the function's
frame size can only be determined at run-time because the function manipulates
the stack dynamically (e.g., due to variable size objects). The size info only
reflects the size of the fixed size frame objects in this case and therefore is
not a reliable measure of the total frame size.

This change enables emitting CFI unwind information for debugging purpose
for targets with MCAsmInfo::ExceptionsType == ExceptionHandling::None.
Currently generating CFI unwind information is entangled with supporting
the exceptions, even when AsmPrinter explicitly recognizes that the unwind
tables are being generated as debug information.
In fact, the unwind information is not generated even if we specify
--force-dwarf-frame-section, unless exceptions are enabled. The LIT test
llvm/test/CodeGen/AMDGPU/debug_frame.ll demonstrates this behavior.
Enable this option for AMDGPU to prepare for future patches which add
complete CFI support.

The situation with inline asm/MC error reporting is kind of messy at the
moment. The errors from MC layout are not reliably propagated and users
have to specify an inlineasm handler separately to get inlineasm
diagnose. The latter issue is not a correctness issue but could be improved.
* Kill LLVMContext inlineasm diagnose handler and migrate it to use
DiagnoseInfo/DiagnoseHandler.
* Introduce `DiagnoseInfoSrcMgr` to diagnose SourceMgr backed errors. This
covers use cases like inlineasm, MC, and any clients using SourceMgr.
* Move AsmPrinter::SrcMgrDiagInfo and its instance to MCContext. The next step
is to combine MCContext::SrcMgr and MCContext::InlineSrcMgr because in all
use cases, only one of them is used.
* If LLVMContext is available, let MCContext uses LLVMContext's diagnose
handler; if LLVMContext is not available, MCContext uses its own default
diagnose handler which just prints SMDiagnostic.
* Change a few clients(Clang, llc, lldb) to use the new way of reporting.

This change implements pseudo probe encoding and emission for CSSPGO. Please see RFC here for more context: https://groups.google.com/g/llvm-dev/c/1p1rdYbL93s
Pseudo probes are in the form of intrinsic calls on IR/MIR but they do not turn into any machine instructions. Instead they are emitted into the binary as a piece of data in standalone sections. The probe-specific sections are not needed to be loaded into memory at execution time, thus they do not incur a runtime overhead.
**ELF object emission**
The binary data to emit are organized as two ELF sections, i.e, the `.pseudo_probe_desc` section and the `.pseudo_probe` section. The `.pseudo_probe_desc` section stores a function descriptor for each function and the `.pseudo_probe` section stores the actual probes, each fo which corresponds to an IR basic block or an IR function callsite. A function descriptor is stored as a module-level metadata during the compilation and is serialized into the object file during object emission.
Both the probe descriptors and pseudo probes can be emitted into a separate ELF section per function to leverage the linker for deduplication. A `.pseudo_probe` section shares the same COMDAT group with the function code so that when the function is dead, the probes are dead and disposed too. On the contrary, a `.pseudo_probe_desc` section has its own COMDAT group. This is because even if a function is dead, its probes may be inlined into other functions and its descriptor is still needed by the profile generation tool.
The format of `.pseudo_probe_desc` section looks like:
```
.section .pseudo_probe_desc,"",@progbits
.quad 6309742469962978389 // Func GUID
.quad 4294967295 // Func Hash
.byte 9 // Length of func name

.quad -2016976694713209516
.quad 72617220756
.byte 7
.ascii "_Z3fibi"
```
For each `.pseudoprobe` section, the encoded binary data consists of a single function record corresponding to an outlined function (i.e, a function with a code entry in the `.text` section). A function record has the following format :
```
FUNCTION BODY (one for each outlined function present in the text section)
GUID (uint64)
GUID of the function
NPROBES (ULEB128)
Number of probes originating from this function.
NUM_INLINED_FUNCTIONS (ULEB128)
Number of callees inlined into this function, aka number of
first-level inlinees
PROBE RECORDS
A list of NPROBES entries. Each entry contains:
INDEX (ULEB128)
TYPE (uint4)
0 - block probe, 1 - indirect call, 2 - direct call
ATTRIBUTE (uint3)
reserved
ADDRESS_TYPE (uint1)
0 - code address, 1 - address delta
CODE_ADDRESS (uint64 or ULEB128)
code address or address delta, depending on ADDRESS_TYPE
INLINED FUNCTION RECORDS
A list of NUM_INLINED_FUNCTIONS entries describing each of the inlined
callees. Each record contains:
INLINE SITE
GUID of the inlinee (uint64)
ID of the callsite probe (ULEB128)
FUNCTION BODY
A FUNCTION BODY entry describing the inlined function.
```
To support building a context-sensitive profile, probes from inlinees are grouped by their inline contexts. An inline context is logically a call path through which a callee function lands in a caller function. The probe emitter builds an inline tree based on the debug metadata for each outlined function in the form of a trie tree. A tree root is the outlined function. Each tree edge stands for a callsite where inlining happens. Pseudo probes originating from an inlinee function are stored in a tree node and the tree path starting from the root all the way down to the tree node is the inline context of the probes. The emission happens on the whole tree top-down recursively. Probes of a tree node will be emitted altogether with their direct parent edge. Since a pseudo probe corresponds to a real code address, for size savings, the address is encoded as a delta from the previous probe except for the first probe. Variant-sized integer encoding, aka LEB128, is used for address delta and probe index.
**Assembling**
Pseudo probes can be printed as assembly directives alternatively. This allows for good assembly code readability and also provides a view of how optimizations and pseudo probes affect each other, especially helpful for diff time assembly analysis.
A pseudo probe directive has the following operands in order: function GUID, probe index, probe type, probe attributes and inline context. The directive is generated by the compiler and can be parsed by the assembler to form an encoded `.pseudoprobe` section in the object file.
A example assembly looks like:
```

This patch provides exception support for basic block sections by splitting the call-site table into call-site ranges corresponding to different basic block sections. Still all landing pads must reside in the same basic block section (which is guaranteed by the the core basic block section patch D73674 (ExceptionSection) ). Each call-site table will refer to the landing pad fragment by explicitly specifying @LPstart (which is omitted in the normal non-basic-block section case). All these call-site tables will share their action and type tables.
The C++ ABI somehow assumes that no landing pads point directly to LPStart (which works in the normal case since the function begin is never a landing pad), and uses LP.offset = 0 to specify no landing pad. In the case of basic block section where one section contains all the landing pads, the landing pad offset relative to LPStart could actually be zero. Thus, we avoid zero-offset landing pads by inserting a **nop** operation as the first non-CFI instruction in the exception section.
**Background on Exception Handling in C++ ABI**
https://github.com/itanium-cxx-abi/cxx-abi/blob/master/exceptions.pdf
Compiler emits an exception table for every function. When an exception is thrown, the stack unwinding library queries the unwind table (which includes the start and end of each function) to locate the exception table for that function.
The exception table includes a call site table for the function, which is used to guide the exception handling runtime to take the appropriate action upon an exception. Each call site record in this table is structured as follows:
| CallSite | --> Position of the call site (relative to the function entry)
| CallSite length | --> Length of the call site.
| Landing Pad | --> Position of the landing pad (relative to the landing pad fragment’s begin label)
| Action record offset | --> Position of the first action record
The call site records partition a function into different pieces and describe what action must be taken for each callsite. The callsite fields are relative to the start of the function (as captured in the unwind table).
The landing pad entry is a reference into the function and corresponds roughly to the catch block of a try/catch statement. When execution resumes at a landing pad, it receives an exception structure and a selector value corresponding to the type of the exception thrown, and executes similar to a switch-case statement. The landing pad field is relative to the beginning of the procedure fragment which includes all the landing pads (@LPStart). The C++ ABI requires all landing pads to be in the same fragment. Nonetheless, without basic block sections, @LPStart is the same as the function @Start (found in the unwind table) and can be omitted.
The action record offset is an index into the action table which includes information about which exception types are caught.
**C++ Exceptions with Basic Block Sections**
Basic block sections break the contiguity of a function fragment. Therefore, call sites must be specified relative to the beginning of the basic block section. Furthermore, the unwinding library should be able to find the corresponding callsites for each section. To do so, the .cfi_lsda directive for a section must point to the range of call-sites for that section.
This patch introduces a new **CallSiteRange** structure which specifies the range of call-sites which correspond to every section:
`struct CallSiteRange {
// Symbol marking the beginning of the precedure fragment.
MCSymbol *FragmentBeginLabel = nullptr;
// Symbol marking the end of the procedure fragment.
MCSymbol *FragmentEndLabel = nullptr;
// LSDA symbol for this call-site range.
MCSymbol *ExceptionLabel = nullptr;
// Index of the first call-site entry in the call-site table which
// belongs to this range.
size_t CallSiteBeginIdx = 0;
// Index just after the last call-site entry in the call-site table which
// belongs to this range.
size_t CallSiteEndIdx = 0;
// Whether this is the call-site range containing all the landing pads.
bool IsLPRange = false;
};`
With N basic-block-sections, the call-site table is partitioned into N call-site ranges.
Conceptually, we emit the call-site ranges for sections sequentially in the exception table as if each section has its own exception table. In the example below, two sections result in the two call site ranges (denoted by LSDA1 and LSDA2) placed next to each other. However, their call-sites will refer to records in the shared Action Table. We also emit the header fields (@LPStart and CallSite Table Length) for each call site range in order to place the call site ranges in separate LSDAs. We note that with -basic-block-sections, The CallSiteTableLength will not actually represent the length of the call site table, but rather the reference to the action table. Since the only purpose of this field is to locate the action table, correctness is guaranteed.
Finally, every call site range has one @LPStart pointer so the landing pads of each section must all reside in one section (not necessarily the same section). To make this easier, we decide to place all landing pads of the function in one section (hence the `IsLPRange` field in CallSiteRange).
| @LPStart | ---> Landing pad fragment ( LSDA1 points here)
| CallSite Table Length | ---> Used to find the action table.

This patch introduces the new .bb_addr_map section feature which allows us to emit the bits needed for mapping binary profiles to basic blocks into a separate section.
The format of the emitted data is represented as follows. It includes a header for every function:
| Address of the function | -> 8 bytes (pointer size)
| Number of basic blocks in this function (>0) | -> ULEB128
The header is followed by a BB record for every basic block. These records are ordered in the same order as MachineBasicBlocks are placed in the function. Each BB Info is structured as follows:
| Offset of the basic block relative to function begin | -> ULEB128
| Binary size of the basic block | -> ULEB128
| BB metadata | -> ULEB128 [ MBB.isReturn() OR MBB.hasTailCall() << 1 OR MBB.isEHPad() << 2 ]
The new feature will replace the existing "BB labels" functionality with -basic-block-sections=labels.
The .bb_addr_map section scrubs the specially-encoded BB symbols from the binary and makes it friendly to profilers and debuggers.
Furthermore, the new feature reduces the binary size overhead from 70% bloat to only 12%.

This patch uses ranges for debug information when a function contains basic block sections rather than using [lowpc, highpc]. This is also the first in a series of patches for debug info and does not contain the support for linker relaxation. That will be done as a follow up patch.

This function is deceptive at best: it doesn't return what you'd expect.
If you have an arbitrary GlobalValue and you want to determine the
alignment of that pointer, Value::getPointerAlignment() returns the
correct value. If you want the actual declared alignment of a function
or variable, GlobalObject::getAlignment() returns that.
This patch switches all the users of GlobalValue::getAlignment to an
appropriate alternative.

SUMMARY:
in the aix assembly , it do not have .hidden and .protected directive.
in current llvm. if a function or a variable which has visibility attribute, it will generate something like the .hidden or .protected , it can not recognize by aix as.
in aix assembly, the visibility attribute are support in the pseudo-op like
.extern Name [ , Visibility ]
.globl Name [, Visibility ]
.weak Name [, Visibility ]
in this patch, we implement the visibility attribute for the global variable, function or extern function .
for example.
extern __attribute__ ((visibility ("hidden"))) int
bar(int* ip);
__attribute__ ((visibility ("hidden"))) int b = 0;
__attribute__ ((visibility ("hidden"))) int
foo(int* ip){
return (*ip)++;
}
the visibility of .comm linkage do not support , we will have a separate patch for it.
we have the unsupported cases ("default" and "internal") , we will implement them in a a separate patch for it.

Otherwise, because xray_instr_map is now read-only, the absolute

Machine Block Frequency Info (MBFI) is being computed but unused in AsmPrinter.
MBFI computation was introduced with PGO change D71149 and then its use was

xray_instr_map contains absolute addresses of sleds, which are relocated
by `R_*_RELATIVE` when linked in -pie or -shared mode.
By making these addresses relative to PC, we can avoid the dynamic
relocations and remove the SHF_WRITE flag from xray_instr_map. We can
thus save VM pages containg xray_instr_map (because they are not
modified).
This patch changes x86-64 and bumps the sled version to 2. Subsequent
changes will change powerpc64le and AArch64.

in the same section.
This allows specifying BasicBlock clusters like the following example:
!foo
!!0 1 2
!!4
This places basic blocks 0, 1, and 2 in one section in this order, and
places basic block #4 in a single section of its own.
Follow-up for D74006.
When the integrated assembler is used, we use SHF_LINK_ORDER. The
linked-to symbol is part of ELFSectionKey, thus we can omit the unique
ID.
This extends the RemarkStreamer to allow for other emitters (e.g.
frontends, SIL, etc.) to emit remarks through a common interface.

For -fpatchable-function-entry=N,0 -mbranch-protection=bti, after
9a24488cb67a90f889529987275c5e411ce01dda, we place the NOP sled after
the initial BTI.
```
.Lfunc_begin0:
bti c
nop
nop
.section __patchable_function_entries,"awo",@progbits,f,unique,0
.p2align 3
.xword .Lfunc_begin0
```
This patch adds a label after the initial BTI and changes the __patchable_function_entries entry to reference the label:
```
.Lfunc_begin0:
bti c
.Lpatch0:
nop
nop
.section __patchable_function_entries,"awo",@progbits,f,unique,0
.p2align 3
.xword .Lpatch0
```
This placement is compatible with the resolution in
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=92424 .
A local linkage function whose address is not taken does not need a BTI.
Placing the patch label after BTI has the advantage that code does not
need to differentiate whether the function has an initial BTI.

For `MC_GlobalAddress` operands referencing **certain** GlobalObjects,
we can lower them to STB_LOCAL aliases to avoid costs brought by
assembler/linker's conservative decisions about symbol interposition:
* An assembler conservatively assumes a global default visibility symbol interposable (ELF
semantics). So relocations in object files are needed even if the code generator assumed
the definition exact and non-interposable.
* The relocations can cause the creation of PLT entries on some targets for -shared links.
A linker conservatively assumes a global default visibility symbol interposable (if not
otherwise constrained by -Bsymbolic/--dynamic-list/VER_NDX_LOCAL/etc).
"certain" refers to GlobalObjects in the intersection of
`hasExactDefinition() and !isInterposable()`: `external`, `appending`, `internal`, `private`.
Local linkages (`internal` and `private`) cannot be interposed. `appending` is for very
few objects LLVM interpret specially. So the set just includes `external`.
This patch emits STB_LOCAL aliases (.Lfoo$local) for such GlobalObjects, so that targets can lower
MC_GlobalAddress operands to STB_LOCAL aliases if applicable.
We may extend the scope and include GlobalAlias in the future.
LLVM's existing -fno-semantic-interposition behaviors give us license to do such optimizations:
* Various optimizations (ipconstprop, inliner, sccp, sroa, etc) treat normal ExternalLinkage
GlobalObjects as non-interposable.
* Before D72197, MC resolved a PC-relative VK_None fixup to a non-local symbol at assembly time (no
outstanding relocation), if the target is defined in the same section. Put it simply, even if IR
optimizations failed to optimize and allowed interposition for the function call in
`void foo() {} void bar() { foo(); }`, the assembler would disallow it.
This patch sets up AsmPrinter infrastructure to make -fno-semantic-interposition more so.
With and without the patch, the object file output should be identical:
`.Lfoo$local` does not take a symbol table entry.

Summary:
This is a follow up on https://reviews.llvm.org/D71473#inline-647262.
There's a caveat here that `Align(1)` relies on the compiler understanding of `Log2_64` implementation to produce good code. One could use `Align()` as a replacement but I believe it is less clear that the alignment is one in that case.

Similar to the function attribute `prefix` (prefix data),
"patchable-function-prefix" inserts data (M NOPs) before the function
entry label.
-fpatchable-function-entry=2,1 (1 NOP before entry, 1 NOP after entry)
will look like:
```
.type foo,@function
.Ltmp0: # @foo
nop
foo:
.Lfunc_begin0:
# optional `bti c` (AArch64 Branch Target Identification) or
# `endbr64` (Intel Indirect Branch Tracking)
nop
.section __patchable_function_entries,"awo",@progbits,get,unique,0
.p2align 3
.quad .Ltmp0
```
-fpatchable-function-entry=N,0 + -mbranch-protection=bti/-fcf-protection=branch has two reasonable
placements (https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2020-01/msg01185.html):
```
(a) (b)
func: func:
.Ltmp0: bti c
bti c .Ltmp0:
nop nop
```
(a) needs no additional code. If the consensus is to go for (b), we will
need more code in AArch64BranchTargets.cpp / X86IndirectBranchTracking.cpp .

The Linux kernel uses -fpatchable-function-entry to implement DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS
for arm64 and parisc. GCC 8 implemented
-fpatchable-function-entry, which can be seen as a generalized form of
-mnop-mcount. The N,M form (function entry points before the Mth NOP) is
currently only used by parisc.
This patch adds N,0 support to AArch64 codegen. N is represented as the
function attribute "patchable-function-entry". We will use a different
function attribute for M, if we decide to implement it.
The patch reuses the existing patchable-function pass, and
TargetOpcode::PATCHABLE_FUNCTION_ENTER which is currently used by XRay.
When the integrated assembler is used, __patchable_function_entries will
be created for each text section with the SHF_LINK_ORDER flag to prevent
--gc-sections (https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=93197) and
COMDAT (https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=93195) issues.
Retrospectively, __patchable_function_entries should use a PC-relative
relocation type to avoid the SHF_WRITE flag and dynamic relocations.
"patchable-function-entry"'s interaction with Branch Target
Identification is still unclear (see
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=92424 for GCC discussions).

This new patch shares similarity with MCCodePadder, but has a concrete

introduces can potentially be used for general performance improvement
via alignment. Delete the unused MCCodePadder so that people can develop
