This patch replaces SmallSet<T *, N> with SmallPtrSet<T *, N>. Note
that SmallSet.h "redirects" SmallSet to SmallPtrSet for pointer
element types:
template <typename PointeeType, unsigned N>
class SmallSet<PointeeType*, N> : public SmallPtrSet<PointeeType*, N>
{};
We only have 140 instances that rely on this "redirection", with the
vast majority of them under llvm/. Since relying on the redirection
doesn't improve readability, this patch replaces SmallSet with
SmallPtrSet for pointer element types.
The object file format specific derived classes are used in context
where the type is statically known. We don't use isa/dyn_cast and we
want to eliminate MCSymbol::Kind in the base class.

`Data` now references the first byte of the fixup offset within the current fragment.
MCAssembler::layout asserts that the fixup offset is within either the
fixed-size content or the optional variable-size tail, as this is the
most the generic code can validate without knowing the target-specific
fixup size.
Many backends applyFixup assert
```
assert(Offset + Size <= F.getSize() && "Invalid fixup offset!");
```
This refactoring allows a subsequent change to move the fixed-size
content outside of MCSection::ContentStorage, fixing the
-fsanitize=pointer-overflow issue of #150846
Pull Request: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/151724
to facilitate replacing `MutableArrayRef<char> Data` (fragment content)
with the relocated location. This is necessary to fix the
pointer-overflow sanitizer issue and reland #150846
Refactor the fragment representation of `push rax; jmp foo; nop; jmp foo`,
previously encoded as
`MCDataFragment(nop); MCRelaxableFragment(jmp foo); MCDataFragment(nop); MCRelaxableFragment(jmp foo)`,
to
```
MCFragment(fixed: push rax, variable: jmp foo)
MCFragment(fixed: nop, variable: jmp foo)
```
Changes:
* Eliminate MCEncodedFragment, moving content and fixup storage to MCFragment.
* The new MCFragment contains a fixed-size content (similar to previous
MCDataFragment) and an optional variable-size tail.
* The variable-size tail supports FT_Relaxable, FT_LEB, FT_Dwarf, and
FT_DwarfFrame, with plans to extend to other fragment types.
dyn_cast/isa should be avoided for the converted fragment subclasses.
* In `setVarFixups`, source fixup offsets are relative to the variable part's start.
Stored fixup (in `FixupStorage`) offsets are relative to the fixed part's start.
A lot of code does `getFragmentOffset(Frag) + Fixup.getOffset()`,
expecting the fixup offset to be relative to the fixed part's start.
* HexagonAsmBackend::fixupNeedsRelaxationAdvanced needs to know the
associated instruction for a fixup. We have to add a `const MCFragment &` parameter.
* In MCObjectStreamer, extend `absoluteSymbolDiff` to apply to
FT_Relaxable as otherwise there would be many more FT_DwarfFrame
fragments in -g compilations.

Follow-up to #146307
Moved MCInst storage to MCSection, enabling trivial ~MCRelaxableFragment
and eliminating the need for a fragment walk in ~MCSection.
Updated MCRelaxableFragment::getInst to construct an MCInst on demand.
Modified MCAssembler::relaxInstruction's mayNeedRelaxation to accept
opcode and operands instead of an MCInst, avoiding redundant MCInst
creation. Note that MCObjectStreamer::emitInstructionImpl calls
mayNeedRelaxation before determining the target fragment for the MCInst.
Unfortunately, we also have to encode `MCInst::Flags` to support
the EVEX prefix, e.g. `{evex} xorw $foo, %ax`
There is a small decrease in max-rss (stage1-ReleaseLTO-g (link only))
with negligible instructions:u change.

Next: Enable MCFragment to store fixed-size data (was MCDataFragment's job)
and optional Opcode/Operands data (was MCRelaxableFragment's job),
and delete MCDataFragment/MCRelaxableFragment.
This will allow re-encoding of Data+Relax+Data+Relax sequences as
Frag+Frag. The saving should outweigh the downside of larger
MCFragment.

Utilize the generalized MCAsmBackend::evaluateFixup hook. This reduces
overhead for other targets (e.g., x86).
Now MCAsmBackend::getFixupKindInfo is only used by MCAsmStreamer
-show-encoding in the generic code.
Avoid reliance on the MCAssembler::evaluateFixup workaround that checks
MCFixupKindInfo::FKF_IsPCRel. Additionally, standardize how fixups are
appended. This helper will facilitate future fixup data structure
optimizations.
Follow-up to #141333. Relocation generation called both addReloc and
applyFixup, with the default addReloc invoking shouldForceRelocation,
resulting in three virtual calls. This approach was also inflexible, as
targets needing additional data required extending
`shouldForceRelocation` (see #73721, resolved by #141311).
This change integrates relocation handling into applyFixup, eliminating
two virtual calls. The prior default addReloc is renamed to
maybeAddReloc. Targets overriding addReloc now call their customized
addReloc implementation.
so that subclasses can provide the appropriate MCAsmInfo to print
MCExpr objects.
At present, llvm/utils/TableGen/AsmMatcherEmitter.cpp constucts a
generic MCAsmInfo.
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.
Replace MCSymbol argument with MCValue::AddSym. The minor difference in
.weakref handling is negligible, as our implementation may not fully
align with GAS, and .weakref is not used in practice.
Remove the MCSubtargetInfo argument from applyFixup, introduced in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D45962 , as it's only required by ARM. Instead,
add const MCFragment & so that ARMAsmBackend can retrieve
MCSubtargetInfo via a static member function.
Additionally, remove the MCAssembler argument, which is also only
required by ARM.
Additionally, make applyReloc non-const. Its arguments now fully cover
addReloc's functionality.
This reverts the code change in commit
e87f33d9ce785668223c3bcc4e06956985cccda1 (#73721) but keeps its test.
There have been many changes to lib/MC and AsmBackend.cpp files, so this
is not a pure revert.
#73721, a workaround to generate necessary relocations in mixed
non-relax/relax code,
is no longer necessary after #140692 fixed the root issue (whether two
locations are separated by a fragment with indeterminate size due to
linker relaxation).
The MS bit-field packing ABI depends on the storage size of the type of
being placed in the bit-field. This PR addresses a number of cases in
llvm where the storage type has lead to suboptimal packing.
We will increase the use of raw relocation types and eliminate fixup
kinds that correspond to relocation types. The getFixupKindInfo
functions will return an rvalue instead. Let's update the return type
from a const reference to a value type.
Add two helper functions to simplify checks for relocation types,
replacing direct comparisons with FirstRelocationKind and
FirstLiteralRelocationKind. Note: Some targets haven't utilized
isRelocation yet.
Also, update RelaxFixupKind to use 0 as the sentinel value.
- Change various Inst/Asm Printer functions to use a StringRef for the
Modifier parameter (instead of a const char *).
- This simplifies various string comparisons used within these
functions.
- Remove these params for print functions that do not use them.
Among fixupNeedsRelaxationAdvanced (introduced by
https://reviews.llvm.org/D8217) targets, only Hexagon needs the
`MCRelaxableFragment` parameter (commit
86f218e7ec5d941b7785eaebcb8f4cad76db8a64) to get the instruction packet
(MCInst with sub-instruction operands).
As fixupNeedsRelaxationAdvanced follows mayNeedRelaxation, we can store
the MCInst in mayNeedRelaxation and eliminate the MCRelaxableFragment
parameter.
Follow-up to 7c83b7ef1796210451b839f4c58f2815f4aedfe5 that eliminates
the MCRelaxableFragment parameter from fixupNeedsRelaxation.
Follow-up to commits 5710759eb390c0d5274c2a4d43967282d7df1993
and 634f9a981571eae000c1adc311014c5c64486187
- Integrate `evaluateFixup` into `recordRelocation` and inline code
within `MCAssembler::layout`, removing `handleFixup`.
- Update `fixupNeedsRelaxation` to bypass `shouldForceRelocation` when
calling `evaluateFixup`, eliminating the `WasForced` workaround for
RISC-V linker relaxation (https://reviews.llvm.org/D46350 ).
This parameter eliminates a redundant computation for VK_ABS8 in X86 and
reduces reliance on shouldForceRelocation in relaxation decisions.
Note: `local: jmp local@plt` relaxes JMP. This behavior depends on
fixupNeedsRelaxation calling shouldForceRelocation, which might change
in the future.
Commit 52eb11f925ddeba4e1b3840fd636ee87387f3ada temporarily introduced
getSymSpecifier to prepare for "MCValue: Replace MCSymbolRefExpr members
with MCSymbol" (d5893fc2a7e1191afdb4940469ec9371a319b114). The
refactoring is now complete.
