("[MC] Relax fragments eagerly") and relaxes fragments eagerly to
eliminate MCSection::HasLayout and `getFragmentOffset` overhead. The
approach is slightly different from
1a47f3f3db66589c11f8ddacfeaecc03fb80c510 and has less performance
benefit.
The new layout algorithm also addresses the following problems:
* Size change of MCFillFragment/MCOrgFragment did not influence the
fixed-point iteration, which could be problematic for contrived cases.
* The `invalid number of bytes` error was reported too early. Since
`.zero A-B` might have temporary negative values in the first few
iterations.
* X86AsmBackend::finishLayout performed only one iteration, which might
not converge. In addition, the removed `#ifndef NDEBUG` code (disabled
by default) in X86AsmBackend::finishLayout was problematic, as !NDEBUG
and NDEBUG builds evaluated fragment offsets at different times before
this patch.
* The computed layout for relax-recompute-align.s is optimal now.
Builds with many text sections (e.g. full LTO) shall observe a decrease
in compile time while the new algorithm could be slightly slower for
some -O0 -g projects.
Aligned bundling from the deprecated PNaCl placed constraints how we can
perform iteration.
This reverts commit 1a47f3f3db66589c11f8ddacfeaecc03fb80c510.
Fix#100283
This commit is actually a trigger of other preexisting problems:
* Size change of fill fragments does not influence the fixed-point iteration.
* The `invalid number of bytes` error is reported too early. Since
`.zero A-B` might have temporary negative values in the first few
iterations.
However, the problems appeared at least "benign" (did not affect the
Linux kernel builds) before this commit.
Commit 8728e097dfbec3630a1dd907431c0f14274a1ae8 (2018) introduced
getWriterPtr, which might be nullptr for MCAsmStreamer. This lured call
sites to use getWriterPtr when it's guaranteed to be non-null for
MCObjectstreamer. Remove this misleading API.

("[MC] Relax fragments eagerly") and relaxes fragments eagerly to
eliminate MCSection::HasLayout and `getFragmentOffset` overhead.
Note: The removed `#ifndef NDEBUG` code (disabled by default) in
X86AsmBackend::finishLayout was problematic, as (a) !NDEBUG and NDEBUG
builds evaluated fragment offsets at different times before this patch
(b) one iteration might not be sufficient to converge. There might be
some edge cases that it did not handle. Anyhow, this patch probably
makes it work for more cases.
Similar to commit 28fcafb50274be2520117eacb0a886adafefe59d (2011) for
MachObjectWriter. MCWinCOFFStreamer can now access WinCOFFObjectWriter
directly without holding object file format specific inforamtion in
MCAssembler (e.g. IncrementalLinkerCompatible).
This restores 63ec52f867ada8d841dd872acf3d0cb62e2a99e8 and
46f7929879a59ec72dc75679b4201e2d314efba9, NFC changes that were
unnecessarily reverted.
This completes the work that merges MCAsmLayout into MCAssembler.
Pull Request: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/97449
and replace MCAssembler::Layout with a bool.
This mostly completes "[MC] Start merging MCAsmLayout into MCAssembler".
Note: BOLT used a dummy `MCAsmLayout` to call `getSymbolOffset`, which
is technically not supported. There is some discussion in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D154604 .
The revert f80a4072ced41b52363c63df28fea9a649f7f89e is incorrect and
actually broke bots.
This reverts commit c72cb2766cec0ac519a051780ae5aed42485e012.
The patch was not reviewed, and this assertion guards against incorrect
values for symbols if the linker decides to modify the layout as it
happens on some platforms. getSymbolOffset() is used for code size
estimation, among others.
Reverting for now, until we get proper code review and undersatnding of
the implications.
BOLT used a dummy `MCAsmLayout` to call `getSymbolOffset`, which is
technically not supported. There is some discussion in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D154604 that this is not ideal.
For now, remove the assert.
The assert was added by bbb50369a149d9a7d1f91efaaabf75c260a220c7.

SectionOrder is Mach-O specific to place zerofill sections after

MCAsmLayout, introduced by ac8a95498a99eb16dff9d3d0186616645d200b6e
(2010), provides APIs to compute fragment/symbol/section offsets.
The separate class is cumbersome and passing it around has overhead.
Let's remove it as the underlying implementation is tightly coupled with
MCAsmLayout anyway.
Some forwarders are added to ease migration.
8d736236d36ca5c98832b7631aea2e538f6a54aa (2015) moved these MCAsmLayout
functions to MCFragment.cpp, but the original placement is better as
these functions are tightly coupled with MCAssembler.cpp.
RelaxAll/SubsectionsViaSyms are used more frequently then vector members
like Sections/Symbols. The size of MCAssembler doesn't particularly
matter, so avoid bit fields.
MCAssembler::layout ensures that every section has at least one
fragment, which simplifies MCAsmLayout::getSectionAddressSize (see
e73353c7201a3080851d99a16f5fe2c17f7697c6 from 2010). It's better to
ensure the condition is satisfied at create time (COFF, GOFF, Mach-O) to
simplify more fragment processing.
This commit removes the complexity introduced by pending labels in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D5915 by using a simpler approach. D5915 aimed
to ensure padding placement before `.Ltmp0` for the following code, but
at the cost of expensive per-instruction `flushPendingLabels`.
```
// similar to llvm/test/MC/X86/AlignedBundling/labeloffset.s
.bundle_lock align_to_end
calll .L0$pb
.bundle_unlock
.L0$pb:
popl %eax
.Ltmp0: //// padding should be inserted before this label instead of after
addl $_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_+(.Ltmp0-.L0$pb), %eax
```
(D5915 was adjusted by https://reviews.llvm.org/D8072 and
https://reviews.llvm.org/D71368)
This patch achieves the same goal by setting the offset of the empty
MCDataFragment (`Prev`) in `layoutBundle`. This eliminates the need for
pending labels and simplifies the code.
llvm/test/MC/MachO/pending-labels.s (D71368): relocation symbols are
changed, but the result is still supported by linkers.
