This relands D64327 with a more specific workaround for R_386_GOTOFF
(gold<2.34 bug https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16794)
.debug_info has quite a few .debug_str relocations (R_386_32/R_ARM_ABS32).
The original workaround was too general and introduced too many .L symbols
used just as relocation targets.
From the original review:
... it reduced the size of a big ARM-32 debug image by 33%. It contained ~68M
of relocations symbols out of total ~71M symbols (96% of symbols table was
generated for relocations with symbol).
This reverts commit b497665d98ad5026b1d3d67d5793a28fefe27bea.
Spent some time trying to reproduce this locally, reverting in a
desparate attempt to fix the sanitizer buildbot:
- http://lab.llvm.org:8011/builders/sanitizer-x86_64-linux/builds/28828
I don't know exactly why or how this patch breaks the bots, but it seems
pretty concrete that it's the culprit.
This drops a GNU gold workaround and reverts the revert commit rL366708.
Before binutils 2.34, gold -O2 and above did not correctly handle R_386_GOTOFF to

-Wl,-O2 (and -Wl,-O3) is so rare that we should just lower the
optimization level for LLVM_LINKER_IS_GOLD rather than pessimizing all users.
This reverts commit r366686 as it appears to be causing buildbot
failures on sanitizer-x86_64-linux-android and sanitizer-x86_64-linux.

This patch was not the reason of the buildbot failure.
Deleted code was introduced as a work around for a bug in the gold linker
(http://sourceware.org/PR16794). Test case that was given as a reason for
this part of code, the one on previous link, now works for the gold.
This condition is too strict and when a code is compiled with debug info
it forces generation of numerous relocations with symbol for architectures
that do not have relocation addend.

-t is --symbols in llvm-readobj but --section-details (unimplemented) in readelf.
The confusing option should not be used since we aim for improving
compatibility.
Keep just one llvm-readobj -t use case in test/tools/llvm-readobj/symbols.test
llvm-svn: 359661
We use both -long-option and --long-option in tests. Switch to --long-option for consistency.
In the "llvm-readelf" mode, -long-option is discouraged as it conflicts with grouped short options and it is not accepted by GNU readelf.
While updating the tests, change llvm-readobj -s to llvm-readobj -S to reduce confusion ("s" is --section-headers in llvm-readobj but --symbols in llvm-readelf).

As part of the unification of the debug format and the MIR format, print
MBB references as '%bb.5'.
The MIR printer prints the IR name of a MBB only for block definitions.

This causes errors like:
ld: error: blah.o: requires dynamic R_X86_64_PC32 reloc against '' which
may overflow at runtime; recompile with -fPIC
blah.cc:function f(): error: undefined reference to ''
blah.o:g(): error: undefined reference to ''
I have not yet come up with an appropriate reproduction.

Now that pr23900 is fixed, we can bring it back with no changes.
Original message:
Make all temporary symbols unnamed.
What this does is make all symbols that would otherwise start with a .L
(or L on MachO) unnamed.
Some of these symbols still show up in the symbol table, but we can just
make them unnamed.
In order to make sure we produce identical results when going thought assembly,
all .L (not just the compiler produced ones), are now unnamed.
Running llc on llvm-as.opt.bc, the peak memory usage goes from 208.24MB to
205.57MB.

Section symbols exist as an optimization: instead of having multiple relocations
point to different symbols, many of them can point to a single section symbol.
When that optimization is unused, a section symbol is also unused and adds no
extra information to the object file.
This saves a bit of space on the object files and makes the output of
llvm-objdump -t easier to read and consequently some tests get quite a bit
simpler.
llvm-svn: 239045
Many of these predate llvm-readobj. With elf-dump we had to match
a relocation to symbol number and symbol number to symbol name or
section number.

For COFF and MachO, sections semantically have relocations that apply to them.
That is not the case on ELF.
In relocatable objects (.o), a section with relocations in ELF has offsets to
another section where the relocations should be applied.
In dynamic objects and executables, relocations don't have an offset, they have
a virtual address. The section sh_info may or may not point to another section,
but that is not actually used for resolving the relocations.
This patch exposes that in the ObjectFile API. It has the following advantages:
* Most (all?) clients can handle this more efficiently. They will normally walk
all relocations, so doing an effort to iterate in a particular order doesn't
save time.
* llvm-readobj now prints relocations in the same way the native readelf does.
* probably most important, relocations that don't point to any section are now
visible. This is the case of relocations in the rela.dyn section. See the
updated relocation-executable.test for example.
