## Purpose
This patch is one in a series of code-mods that annotate LLVM’s public
interface for export. This patch annotates the `llvm/Target` library.
These annotations currently have no meaningful impact on the LLVM build;
however, they are a prerequisite to support an LLVM Windows DLL (shared
library) build.
## Background
This effort is tracked in #109483. Additional context is provided in
[this
discourse](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/psa-annotating-llvm-public-interface/85307),
and documentation for `LLVM_ABI` and related annotations is found in the
LLVM repo
[here](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/main/llvm/docs/InterfaceExportAnnotations.rst).
A sub-set of these changes were generated automatically using the
[Interface Definition Scanner (IDS)](https://github.com/compnerd/ids)
tool, followed formatting with `git clang-format`.
The bulk of this change is manual additions of `LLVM_ABI` to
`LLVMInitializeX` functions defined in .cpp files under llvm/lib/Target.
Adding `LLVM_ABI` to the function implementation is required here
because they do not `#include "llvm/Support/TargetSelect.h"`, which
contains the declarations for this functions and was already updated
with `LLVM_ABI` in a previous patch. I considered patching these files
with `#include "llvm/Support/TargetSelect.h"` instead, but since
TargetSelect.h is a large file with a bunch of preprocessor x-macro
stuff in it I was concerned it would unnecessarily impact compile times.
In addition, a number of unit tests under llvm/unittests/Target required
additional dependencies to make them build correctly against the LLVM
DLL on Windows using MSVC.
## Validation
Local builds and tests to validate cross-platform compatibility. This
included llvm, clang, and lldb on the following configurations:
- Windows with MSVC
- Windows with Clang
- Linux with GCC
- Linux with Clang
- Darwin with Clang
Follow the X86 and Mips renaming.
> "Relocation modifier" suggests adjustments happen during the linker's relocation step rather than the assembler's expression evaluation.
> "Relocation specifier" is clear, aligns with Arm and IBM’s usage, and fits the assembler's role seamlessly.
In addition, rename *MCExpr::getKind, which confusingly shadows the base class getKind.
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.
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).
The parameter is confusing as it duplicates MCStreamer::isVeboseAsm
(initialized from MCTargetOptions::AsmVerbose). After
233cca169237b91d16092c82bd55ee6a283afe98, no in-tree target uses the
parameter.
Related to clean-up opportunities discussed at #90013.
After these cleanups, the `RelaxAll` parameter from
`createMCObjectStreamer` can be removed as well. As
`createMCObjectStreamer` is a more user-facing API and used by two files
in mlir/, we postpone the cleanup to the future.
See issue #64166 for more information about the layering issue.
The PPCMCTargetDesc library was including CodeGen headers such as
PPCInstrInfo.h and calling inline functions in them. This doesn't work
in the Bazel build, and is error-prone. If the inline function moves to
a cpp file, it will result in linker errors.
To address the issue, I moved several inline functions to
PPCMCTargetDesc.cpp, and declared them in the PPC namespace in
PPCMCTargetDesc.h, which seemed like the most straightforward fix.

This patch adds support for the TLS local-exec access model on AIX to allow
for the ability to generate the 64-bit (specifically, non-optimized) code sequence.
For this patch in particular, the sequence that is generated involves a load of the
variable offset, followed by an add of the loaded variable offset to r13 (which is
thread pointer, respectively). This code sequence looks like the following:
```
ld reg1,var[TC](2)
add reg2, reg1, r13 // r13 contains the thread pointer
```
The TOC (.tc pseudo-op) entries generated in the assembly files are also
changed where we add the @le relocation for the variable offset.

Change MCInstrDesc::operands to return an ArrayRef so we can easily use
it everywhere instead of the (IMHO ugly) opInfo_begin and opInfo_end.
A future patch will remove opInfo_begin and opInfo_end.
Also use it instead of raw access to the OpInfo pointer. A future patch
will remove this pointer.

D25618 added a method to verify the instruction predicates for an
emitted instruction, through verifyInstructionPredicates added into
<Target>MCCodeEmitter::encodeInstruction. This is a very useful idea,
but the implementation inside MCCodeEmitter made it only fire for object
files, not assembly which most of the llvm test suite uses.
This patch moves the code into the <Target>_MC::verifyInstructionPredicates
method, inside the InstrInfo. The allows it to be called from other
places, such as in this patch where it is called from the
<Target>AsmPrinter::emitInstruction methods which should trigger for
both assembly and object files. It can also be called from other places
such as verifyInstruction, but that is not done here (it tends to catch
errors earlier, but in reality just shows all the mir tests that have
incorrect feature predicates). The interface was also simplified
slightly, moving computeAvailableFeatures into the function so that it
does not need to be called externally.
The ARM, AMDGPU (but not R600), AVR, Mips and X86 backends all currently
show errors in the test-suite, so have been disabled with FIXME
comments.
Recommitted with some fixes for the leftover MCII variables in release
builds.

This moves the registry higher in the LLVM library dependency stack.
Every client of the target registry needs to link against MC anyway to
actually use the target, so we might as well move this out of Support.
This allows us to ensure that Support doesn't have includes from MC/*.

Adds support for the TLS general dynamic access model to
assembly files on AIX 32-bit.
To generate the correct code sequence when accessing a TLS variable
`v`, we first create two TOC entry nodes, one for the variable offset, one
for the region handle. These nodes are followed by a `PPCISD::TLSGD_AIX`
node (new node introduced by this patch).
The `PPCISD::TLSGD_AIX` node (`TLSGDAIX` pseudo instruction) is
expanded to 2 copies (to put the variable offset and region handle in
the right registers) and a call to `__tls_get_addr`.
This patch also changes the way TC entries are generated in asm files.
If the generated TC entry is for the region handle of a TLS variable,
we add the `@m` relocation and the `.` prefix to the entry name.
For example:
```
L..C0:
.tc .v[TC],v[TL]@m -> region handle
L..C1:
.tc v[TC],v[TL] -> variable offset
```

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.

This patch implements initial backend support for a -mtune CPU controlled by a "tune-cpu" function attribute. If the attribute is not present X86 will use the resolved CPU from target-cpu attribute or command line.
This patch adds MC layer support a tune CPU. Each CPU now has two sets of features stored in their GenSubtargetInfo.inc tables . These features lists are passed separately to the Processor and ProcessorModel classes in tablegen. The tune list defaults to an empty list to avoid changes to non-X86. This annoyingly increases the size of static tables on all target as we now store 24 more bytes per CPU. I haven't quantified the overall impact, but I can if we're concerned.
One new test is added to X86 to show a few tuning features with mismatched tune-cpu and target-cpu/target-feature attributes to demonstrate independent control. Another new test is added to demonstrate that the scheduler model follows the tune CPU.
I have not added a -mtune to llc/opt or MC layer command line yet. With no attributes we'll just use the -mcpu for both. MC layer tools will always follow the normal CPU for tuning.

On PowerPC most functions require a valid TOC pointer.
This is the case because either the function itself needs to use this
pointer to access the TOC or because other functions that are called
from that function expect a valid TOC pointer in the register R2.
The main exception to this is leaf functions that do not access the TOC
since they are guaranteed not to need a valid TOC pointer.
This patch introduces a feature that will allow more functions to not
require a valid TOC pointer in R2.
