When MC was first added, targets could use hasRawTextSupport to keep features
working before they were added to the MC interface.
The design goal of MC is to provide an uniform api for printing assembly and
object files. Short of relaxations and other corner cases, a object file is
just another representation of the assembly.
It was never the intention that targets would keep doing things like
if (hasRawTextSupport())
Set flags in one way.
else
Set flags in another way.
When they do that they create two code paths and the object file is no longer
just another representation of the assembly. This also then requires testing
with llc -filetype=obj, which is extremelly brittle.
This patch removes some of these hacks by replacing them with smaller ones.
The ARM flag setting is trivial, so I just moved it to the constructor. For
Mips, the patch adds two temporary hack directives that allow the assembly
to represent the same things as the object file was already able to.
The hope is that the mips developers will replace the hack directives with
the same ones that gas uses and drop the -print-hack-directives flag.
I will also try to implement a target streamer interface, so that we can
move this out of the common code.
In summary, for any new work, two rules of the thumb are
* Don't use "llc -filetype=obj" in tests.
* Don't add calls to hasRawTextSupport.

This patch handles LLVM standalone assembler (llvm-mc) ELF flag setting based on input file
directive processing.
Mips assembly requires processing inline directives that directly and
indirectly affect the output ELF header flags. This patch handles one
".abicalls".
To process these directives we are following the model the code generator
uses by storing state in a container as we go through processing and when
we detect the end of input file processing, AsmParser is notified and we
update the ELF header flags through a MipsELFStreamer method with a call from
MCTargetAsmParser::emitEndOfAsmFile(MCStreamer &OutStreamer).
This patch will allow other targets the same functionality.

This patch adds Direct Object Emission support for I8 instructions: andi.b, bmnzi.b, bmzi.b, bseli.b, nori.b, ori.b, shf.{b,h,w} and xori.b.

This is the first set of instructions with a ".b" modifier thus we need to add the required code to disassemble a MSA128B register class.

In more detail, this patch adds the ability to parse, encode and decode MSA registers ($w0-$w31). The format of 2RF instructions (MipsMSAInstrFormat.td) was updated so that we could attach a test case to this patch i.e., the test case parses, encodes and decodes 2 MSA instructions. Following patches will add the remainder of the instructions.
Note that DecodeMSA128BRegisterClass is missing from MipsDisassembler.td because it's not yet required at this stage and having it would cause a compiler warning (unused function).

- Instead of setting the suffixes in a bunch of places, just set one master
list in the top-level config. We now only modify the suffix list in a few
suites that have one particular unique suffix (.ml, .mc, .yaml, .td, .py).
- Aside from removing the need for a bunch of lit.local.cfg files, this enables
4 tests that were inadvertently being skipped (one in
Transforms/BranchFolding, a .s file each in DebugInfo/AArch64 and
CodeGen/PowerPC, and one in CodeGen/SI which is now failing and has been
XFAILED).
- This commit also fixes a bunch of config files to use config.root instead of
older copy-pasted code.

the operand being parsed is not in the expected format.

When producing objects that are abi compliant we are
marking neither the object file nor the assembly file
correctly and thus generate warnings.
We need to set the EF_CPIC flag in the ELF header when
generating direct object.
Note that the warning is only generated when compiling without PIC.
When compiling with clang the warning will be suppressed by supplying:
-Wa,-mno-shared -Wa,-call_nonpic
Also the following directive should also be added:
.option pic0
when compiling without PIC, This eliminates the need for supplying:
-mno-shared -call_nonpic
on the assembler command line.

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.

This patch solves the problem of numeric register values not being accepted:
../set_alias.s:1:11: error: expected valid expression after comma
.set r4,$4

The parsing of .set directive is changed and handling of symbols in code
as well to enable this feature.
The test example is added.

This patch removes alias definition for addiu $rs,$imm
and instead uses the TwoOperandAliasConstraint field in
the ArithLogicI instruction class.
This way all instructions that inherit ArithLogicI class
have the same macro defined.
The usage examples are added to test files.

This patch adds bnez and beqz instructions which represent alias definitions for bne and beq instructions as follows:

beqz $rs,$imm => beq $rs,$zero,$imm
