This format is simply a regular object file with the bitcode stored in a
section named ".llvmbc", plus any number of other (non-allocated) sections.
One immediate use case for this is to accommodate compilation processes
which expect the object file to contain metadata in non-allocated sections,
such as the ".go_export" section used by some Go compilers [1], although I
imagine that in the future we could consider compiling parts of the module
(such as large non-inlinable functions) directly into the object file to
improve LTO efficiency.

This finishes the ability of llvm-objdump to print out all information from
the LC_DYLD_INFO load command.
The -bind option prints out symbolic references that dyld must resolve
immediately.
The -lazy-bind option prints out symbolc reference that are lazily resolved on
first use.
The -weak-bind option prints out information about symbols which dyld must
try to coalesce across images.

Similar to my previous -exports-trie option, the -rebase option dumps info from
the LC_DYLD_INFO load command. The rebasing info is a list of the the locations
that dyld needs to adjust if a mach-o image is not loaded at its preferred
address. Since ASLR is now the default, images almost never load at their
preferred address, and thus need to be rebased by dyld.

This adds support for reading the "bigobj" variant of COFF produced by
cl's /bigobj and mingw's -mbig-obj.
The most significant difference that bigobj brings is more than 2**16
sections to COFF.
bigobj brings a few interesting differences with it:
- It doesn't have a Characteristics field in the file header.
- It doesn't have a SizeOfOptionalHeader field in the file header (it's
only used in executable files).
- Auxiliary symbol records have the same width as a symbol table entry.
Since symbol table entries are bigger, so are auxiliary symbol
records.
Write support will come soon.

Summary:
Until r216870 LLVMCreateObjectFile returned nullptr in case of an error,
so callers could check if the call was successful. Now, it always
returns an OwningBinary wrapped as an LLVMObjectFileRef, so callers
can't check if the call was successul.
This results in a segfault running e.g.
llvm-c-test --object-list-sections < /dev/null
So the old behaviour should be restored.

This adds the printing of more load commands, so that the normal load commands
in a typical X86 Mach-O executable can all be printed.

I took a guess at the changes to the gold plugin, because that doesn't
seem to build by default for me. Not sure what dependencies I might be
missing for that.

This forces callers to use std::move when calling it. It is somewhat odd to have
code with std::move that doesn't always move, but it is also odd to have code
without std::move that sometimes moves.

An unpleasant surprise while migrating unique_ptrs (see changes in
lib/Object): ErrorOr<int*> was implicitly convertible to
ErrorOr<std::unique_ptr<int>>.
Keep the explicit conversions otherwise it's a pain to convert
ErrorOr<int*> to ErrorOr<std::unique_ptr<int>>.
I'm not sure if there should be more SFINAE on those explicit ctors (I
could check if !is_convertible && is_constructible, but since the ctor
has to be called explicitly I don't think there's any need to disable
them when !is_constructible - they'll just fail anyway. It's the
converting ctors that can create interesting ambiguities without proper
SFINAE). I had to SFINAE the explicit ones because otherwise they'd be
ambiguous with the implicit ones in an explicit context, so far as I
could tell.
The converting assignment operators seemed unnecessary (and similarly
buggy/dangerous) - just rely on the converting ctors to convert to the
right type for assignment instead.

MachOObjectFile in lib/Object currently has no support for parsing the rebase,
binding, and export information from the LC_DYLD_INFO load command in final
linked mach-o images. This patch adds support for parsing the exports trie data
structure. It also adds an option to llvm-objdump to dump that export info.
I did the exports parsing first because it is the hardest. The information is
encoded in a trie structure, but the standard ObjectFile way to inspect content
is through iterators. So I needed to make an iterator that would do a
non-recursive walk through the trie and maintain the concatenation of edges
needed for the current string prefix.
I plan to add similar support in MachOObjectFile and llvm-objdump to
parse/display the rebasing and binding info too.

By taking a reference we can do the ownership transfer in one place instead of
expecting every caller to do it.

The attached patch simplifies a few interfaces that don't need to take
ownership of a buffer.
For example, both parseAssembly and parseBitcodeFile will parse the
entire buffer before returning. There is no need to take ownership.
Using a MemoryBufferRef makes it obvious in the type signature that
there is no ownership transfer.
git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@216488 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
Owning the buffer is somewhat inflexible. Some Binaries have sub Binaries
(like Archive) and we had to create dummy buffers just to handle that. It is
also a bad fit for IRObjectFile where the Module wants to own the buffer too.
Keeping this ownership would make supporting IR inside native objects
particularly painful.
This patch focuses in lib/Object. If something elsewhere used to own an Binary,
now it also owns a MemoryBuffer.
This patch introduces a few new types.
* MemoryBufferRef. This is just a pair of StringRefs for the data and name.
This is to MemoryBuffer as StringRef is to std::string.
* OwningBinary. A combination of Binary and a MemoryBuffer. This is needed
for convenience functions that take a filename and return both the
buffer and the Binary using that buffer.
The C api now uses OwningBinary to avoid any change in semantics. I will start
a new thread to see if we want to change it and how.

file with -macho, the Mach-O specific object file parser option.
After some discussion I chose to do this implementation contained in the logic
of llvm-objdump’s MachODump.cpp using a second disassembler for thumb when
needed and with updates mostly contained in the MachOObjectFile class.

they're useful)

Having both Triple::arm64 and Triple::aarch64 is extremely confusing, and
invites bugs where only one is checked. In reality, the only legitimate
difference between the two (arm64 usually means iOS) is also present in the OS
part of the triple and that's what should be checked.
We still parse the "arm64" triple, just canonicalise it to Triple::aarch64, so
there aren't any LLVM-side test changes.

createBinary documented that it destroyed the parameter in error cases,
though by observation it does not. By passing the unique_ptr by value
rather than lvalue reference, callers are now explicit about passing
ownership and the function implements the documented contract. Remove
the explicit documentation, since now the behavior cannot be anything
other than what was documented, so it's redundant.
Also drops a unique_ptr::release in llvm-nm that was always run on a
null unique_ptr anyway.
