Type encodings are part of symbol names in the Objective C ABI. Replace
characters which are reseved in symbol names:
- ELF: avoid including '@' characters in type encodings
- Windows: avoid including '=' characters in type encodings
We have a new policy in place making links to private resources
something we try to avoid in source and test files. Normally, we'd
organically switch to the new policy rather than make a sweeping change
across a project. However, Clang is in a somewhat special circumstance
currently: recently, I've had several new contributors run into rdar
links around test code which their patch was changing the behavior of.
This turns out to be a surprisingly bad experience, especially for
newer folks, for a handful of reasons: not understanding what the link
is and feeling intimidated by it, wondering whether their changes are
actually breaking something important to a downstream in some way,
having to hunt down strangers not involved with the patch to impose on
them for help, accidental pressure from asking for potentially private
IP to be made public, etc. Because folks run into these links entirely
by chance (through fixing bugs or working on new features), there's not
really a set of problematic links to focus on -- all of the links have
basically the same potential for causing these problems. As a result,
this is an omnibus patch to remove all such links.
This was not a mechanical change; it was done by manually searching for
rdar, radar, radr, and other variants to find all the various
problematic links. From there, I tried to retain or reword the
surrounding comments so that we would lose as little context as
possible. However, because most links were just a plain link with no
supporting context, the majority of the changes are simple removals.

This adds -no-opaque-pointers to clang tests whose output will
change when opaque pointers are enabled by default. This is
intended to be part of the migration approach described in
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/enabling-opaque-pointers-by-default/61322/9.
The patch has been produced by replacing %clang_cc1 with
%clang_cc1 -no-opaque-pointers for tests that fail with opaque
pointers enabled. Worth noting that this doesn't cover all tests,
there's a remaining ~40 tests not using %clang_cc1 that will need
a followup change.

A significant number of our tests in C accidentally use functions
without prototypes. This patch converts the function signatures to have
a prototype for the situations where the test is not specific to K&R C
declarations. e.g.,
void func();
becomes
void func(void);
This is the twelfth batch of tests being updated (the end may be in
sight soon though).
For a definition (of most linkage types), dso_local is set for ELF -fno-pic/-fpie
and COFF, but not for Mach-O. This nuance causes unneeded binary format differences.
This patch replaces (function) `define ` with `define{{.*}} `,
(variable/constant/alias) `= ` with `={{.*}} `, or inserts appropriate `{{.*}} `
if there is an explicit linkage.
* Clang will set dso_local for Mach-O, which is currently implied by TargetMachine.cpp. This will make COFF/Mach-O and executable ELF similar.
* Eventually I hope we can make dso_local the textual LLVM IR default (write explicit "dso_preemptable" when applicable) and -fpic ELF will be similar to everything else. This patch helps move toward that goal.
clang was encoding pointers to typedefs as if they were pointers to
structs because that is apparently what gcc is doing.
For example:
```
@class Class1;
typedef NSArray<Class1 *> MyArray;
void foo1(void) {
const char *s0 = @encode(MyArray *); // "^{NSArray=#}"
const char *s1 = @encode(NSArray<Class1 *> *); // "@"
}
```
This commit removes the code that was there to make clang compatible
with gcc and make clang emit the correct encoding for ObjC pointers,
which is "@".

Some of these functions take some extraneous arguments, e.g. EltSize,
Offset, which are computable from the Type and DataLayout.
Add some asserts to ensure that the computed values are consistent
with the passed-in values, in preparation for eliminating the
extraneous arguments. This also asserts that the Type is an Array for
the calls named "Array" and a Struct for the calls named "Struct".
Then, correct a couple of errors:
1. Using CreateStructGEP on an array type. (this causes the majority
of the test differences, as struct GEPs are created with i32
indices, while array GEPs are created with i64 indices)
2. Passing the wrong Offset to CreateStructGEP in TargetInfo.cpp on
x86-64 NACL (which uses 32-bit pointers).

These are all emitted into a section with a cstring_literal attribute. The
attribute permits the linker to coalesce the string contents. The address of
the strings are not important.
llvm-svn: 281855
These strings are constants, mark them as such. This doesn't matter too much in
practice on MachO since the constants are placed into a special section and not
referred to directly.

In llvm the only semantic difference between internal and private is that llvm
tries to hide private globals my mangling them with a private prefix. Since
the globals changed by this patch already had the magic don't mangle marker,
there should be no change in the generated assembly.
A followup patch should then be able to drop the \01L and \01l prefixes and let
llvm mangle as appropriate.
