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 .

This directory contains testcases that the verifier is supposed to detect as
malformed LLVM code. Testcases for situations that the verifier incorrectly
identifies as malformed should go in the test/Assembler directory.
