Implements
https://github.com/llvm/wg-hlsl/blob/main/proposals/0026-symbol-visibility.md.
The change is to stop using the `hlsl.export` attribute. Instead,
symbols with "program linkage" in HLSL will have export linkage with
default visibility, and symbols with "external linkage" in HLSL will
have export linkage with hidden visibility.
This PR implements HLSL's initialization list behvaior as specified in
the draft language specifcation under
[*Decl.Init.Agg*](https://microsoft.github.io/hlsl-specs/specs/hlsl.html#Decl.Init.Agg).
This behavior is a bit unusual for C/C++ because intermediate braces in
initializer lists are ignored and a whole array of additional
conversions occur unintuitively to how initializaiton works in C.
The implementaiton in this PR generates a valid C/C++ initialization
list AST for the HLSL initializer so that there are no changes required
to Clang's CodeGen to support this. This design will also allow us to
use Clang's rewrite to convert HLSL initializers to valid C/C++
initializers that are equivalent. It does have the downside that it will
generate often redundant accesses during codegen. The IR optimizer is
extremely good at eliminating those so this will have no impact on the
final executable performance.
There is some opportunity for optimizing the initializer list generation
that we could consider in subsequent commits. One notable opportunity
would be to identify aggregate objects that occur in the same place in
both initializers and do not require converison, those aggregates could
be initialized as aggregates rather than fully scalarized.
Closes#56067

To consolidate behavior of function mangling and limit the number of
places that ABI changes will need to be made, this switches the DirectX
target used for HLSL to use the Itanium ABI from the Microsoft ABI. The
Itanium ABI has greater flexibility in decisions regarding mangling of
new types of which we have more than a few yet to add.
One effect of this will be that linking library shaders compiled with
DXC will not be possible with shaders compiled with clang. That isn't
considered a terribly interesting use case and one that would likely
have been onerous to maintain anyway.
This involved adding a function to call all global destructors as the
Microsoft ABI had done.
This requires a few changes to tests. Most notably the mangling style
has changed which accounts for most of the changes. In making those
changes, I took the opportunity to harmonize some very similar tests for
greater consistency. I also shaved off some unneeded run flags that had
probably been copied over from one test to another.
Other changes effected by using the new ABI include using different
types when manipulating smaller bitfields, eliminating an unnecessary
alloca in one instance in this-assignment.hlsl, changing the way static
local initialization is guarded, and changing the order of inout
parameters getting copied in and out. That last is a subtle change in
functionality, but one where there was sufficient inconsistency in the
past that standardizing is important, but the particular direction of
the standardization is less important for the sake of existing shaders.
fixes#110736
HLSL constant sized array function parameters do not decay to pointers.
Instead constant sized array types are preserved as unique types for
overload resolution, template instantiation and name mangling.
This implements the change by adding a new `ArrayParameterType` which
represents a non-decaying `ConstantArrayType`. The new type behaves the
same as `ConstantArrayType` except that it does not decay to a pointer.
Values of `ConstantArrayType` in HLSL decay during overload resolution
via a new `HLSLArrayRValue` cast to `ArrayParameterType`.
`ArrayParamterType` values are passed indirectly by-value to functions
in IR generation resulting in callee generated memcpy instructions.
The behavior of HLSL function calls is documented in the [draft language
specification](https://microsoft.github.io/hlsl-specs/specs/hlsl.pdf)
under the Expr.Post.Call heading.
Additionally the design of this implementation approach is documented in
[Clang's
documentation](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/HLSL/FunctionCalls.html)
Resolves#70123
