We introduced VariantKinds after MCSymbolRefExpr::VariantKind and then
deprecated the VariantKind naming in favor of AtSpecifier (#133214).
Rename the function and type to use the recommended convention.
Introduce MCAsmInfo::UsesSetToEquateSymbol to control the preferred
syntax for symbol equating. We now favor the more readable and common
`symbol = expression` syntax over `.set`. This aligns with pre- https://reviews.llvm.org/D44256 behavior.
On Apple platforms, this resolves a clang -S vs -c behavior difference (resolves#104623).
For targets whose = support is unconfirmed, UsesSetToEquateSymbol is set to false.
This also minimizes test updates.

Most changes are mechanic, except:
* ELFObjectWriter::shouldRelocateWithSymbol: .TOC.@tocbase does not
register the undefined symbol. Move the handling into the
Sym->isUndefined() code path.
* ELFObjectWriter::fixSymbolsInTLSFixups's VK_PPC* cases are moved to
PPCELFObjectWriter::getRelocType. We should do similar refactoring
for other targets and eventually remove fixSymbolsInTLSFixups.
In the future, we should classify PPCMCExpr similar to AArch64MCExpr.
Make the name conciser. PPC-specific MCSymbolRefExpr::VariantKind
members will be moved to PPCMCExpr and we will not ue
MCSymbolRefExpr::VariantKind's "generic" members, so there won't be
mix-and-match.
This cleans up @l @ha optimization in PPCAsmParser and is also the first
step toward removing VK_PPC_* from the generic MCSymbolRefExpr::VariantKind.
Basically we ensure that @l @ha family modifiers always lead to
PPCMCExpr and avoid MCSymbolRefExpr::VariantKind. This allows us
to delete a lot of switch statements that involve a long list of VK_PPC_LO/VK_PPC_HI/...
52cf8e44880bcf614068b66b63393aa8da1edd76 (2013) introduced the
VK_PPC_TLSGD workaround to prevent unconditional reference to
_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ in ELFObjectWriter.
e2b355d651ed8f2cbe61672c4c39b6419e471265 (2015) removed the
`_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_` hack for the generic VK_TLSGD,
making the VK_PPC_TLSGD workaround unneeded.
Follow-up to 14951a5a3120e50084b3c5fb217e2d47992a24d1
* Unify getVariantKindName and getVariantKindForName
* Allow each target to specify the preferred case (albeit ignored in MCParser)
Note: targets that use variant kinds should call MCExpr::print with a
non-null MAI to print variant kinds. operator<< passes a nullptr to
`MCExpr::print`, which should be avoided (e.g. Hexagon; fixed in
commit cf00ac81ac049cddb80aec1d6d88b8fab4f209e8).
$ is used as PC for PowerPC inlineasm, ELF use it,
enable it for AIX XCOFF as well.

Add a triple for powerpcle-*-*.
This is a little-endian encoding of the 32-bit PowerPC ABI, useful in certain niche situations:
1) A loader such as the FreeBSD loader which will be loading a little endian kernel. This is required for PowerPC64LE to load properly in pseries VMs.
Such a loader is implemented as a freestanding ELF32 LSB binary.
2) Userspace emulation of a 32-bit LE architecture such as x86 on 64-bit hosts such as PowerPC64LE with tools like box86 requires having a 32-bit LE toolchain and library set, as they operate by translating only the main binary and switching to native code when making library calls.
3) The Void Linux for PowerPC project is experimenting with running an entire powerpcle userland.

Summary:
The standard data emission directives (e.g. .short, .long) in the AIX assembler
have the unintended consequence of aligning their output to the natural byte
boundary. This cause problems because we aren't expecting behavior from the
Data*bitsDirectives, so the final alignment of data isn't correct in some cases
on AIX.
This patch updated the Data*bitsDirectives to use .vbyte pseudo-ops instead to emit the
data, since we will emit the .align directives as needed. We update the existing
testcases and add a test for emission of struct data.

The code to prevent using `PPCXCOFFMCAsmInfo` with little-endian targets
used an incorrect check. Also, there does not appear to be sufficient
earlier checking to prevent failing this check, so the check here is
upgraded to be a `report_fatal_error`.
`PPCAIXAsmPrinter` was also missing a check against use with
little-endian targets. This patch adds such a check in.
The setting of `MCAsmInfo` properties for XCOFF got split between
`MCAsmInfoXCOFF` and `PPCXCOFFMCAsmInfo`. Except for the properties that
are dependent on the target information being passed via the
constructor, the properties being set in `PPCXCOFFMCAsmInfo` had no
fundamental reason for being treated as specific for XCOFF on PowerPC.
Indeed, the property that might be considered more specific to PowerPC,
`NeedsFunctionDescriptors`, was set in `MCAsmInfoXCOFF`.
XCOFF being specific to PowerPC anyway, this patch consolidates the
setting of the properties into `MCAsmInfoXCOFF` except for the cases
that are dependent on the information provided via the
`PPCXCOFFMCAsmInfo` constructor.
This patch also reorders the assignments to the fields to match the
declaration order in `MCAsmInfo`.
Summary:
The AIX assembler .space directive can't take a second non-zero argument to fill
with. But LLVM emitFill currently assumes it can. We add a flag to the AsmInfo
to check if non-zero fill is supported, and if we can't zerofill non-zero values
we just splat the .byte directives.

Summary:
Emit the correct .toc psuedo op when we change to the TOC and emit
TC entries. Make sure TOC psuedos get the right symbols via overriding
getMCSymbolForTOCPseudoMO on AIX. Add a test for TOC assembly writing

Also make sure external globals have a csect set and handle external function descriptor (originally authored by Jason Liu) so we can emit TOC entries for them.

We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and

Summary:
This is the first patch in the series to migrate Triple's (which are ambiguous)
to TargetTuple's (which aren't).
For the moment, TargetTuple simply passes all requests to the Triple object it
holds. Once it has replaced Triple, it will start to implement the interface in
a more suitable way.
This change makes some changes to the public C++ API. In particular,
InitMCSubtargetInfo(), createMCRelocationInfo(), and createMCSymbolizer()
now take TargetTuples instead of Triples. The other public C++ API's have
been left as-is for the moment to reduce patch size.
This commit also contains a trivial patch to clang to account for the C++ API
change. Thanks go to Pavel Labath for fixing LLDB for me.

This was already done in clang, this commit now uses the integrated
assembler as default when using LLVM tools directly.
A number of test cases using inline asm had to be adapted, either by
updating the expected output, or by using -no-integrated-as (for such
tests that deliberately use an invalid instruction in inline asm).
llvm-svn: 225819
As a first step towards real little-endian code generation, this patch
changes the PowerPC MC layer to actually generate little-endian object
files. This involves passing the little-endian flag through the various
layers, including down to createELFObjectWriter so we actually get basic
little-endian ELF objects, emitting instructions in little-endian order,
and handling fixups and relocations as appropriate for little-endian.
The bulk of the patch is to update most test cases in test/MC/PowerPC
to verify both big- and little-endian encodings. (The only test cases
*not* updated are those that create actual big-endian ABI code, like
the TLS tests.)
Note that while the object files are now little-endian, the generated
code itself is not yet updated, in particular, it still does not adhere
to the ELFv2 ABI.
llvm-svn: 204634
Summary:
AsmPrinter::EmitInlineAsm() will no longer use the EmitRawText() call for
targets with mature MC support. Such targets will always parse the inline
assembly (even when emitting assembly). Targets without mature MC support
continue to use EmitRawText() for assembly output.
The hasRawTextSupport() check in AsmPrinter::EmitInlineAsm() has been replaced
with MCAsmInfo::UseIntegratedAs which when true, causes the integrated assembler
to parse inline assembly (even when emitting assembly output). UseIntegratedAs
is set to true for targets that consider any failure to parse valid assembly
to be a bug. Target specific subclasses generally enable the integrated
assembler in their constructor. The default value can be overridden with
-no-integrated-as.
All tests that rely on inline assembly supporting invalid assembly (for example,
those that use mnemonics such as 'foo' or 'hello world') have been updated to
disable the integrated assembler.
Changes since review (and last commit attempt):
- Fixed test failures that were missed due to configuration of local build.
(fixes crash.ll and a couple others).
- Fixed tests that happened to pass because the local build was on X86
(should fix 2007-12-17-InvokeAsm.ll)
- mature-mc-support.ll's should no longer require all targets to be compiled.
(should fix ARM and PPC buildbots)
- Object output (-filetype=obj and similar) now forces the integrated assembler
to be enabled regardless of default setting or -no-integrated-as.
(should fix SystemZ buildbots)
