- Together these form the (Mach-O) back end of the assembler.
- MCAssembler is the actual assembler backend, which is designed to have a
reasonable API. This will eventually grow to support multiple object file
implementations, but for now its Mach-O/i386 only.
- MCMachOStreamer adapts the MCStreamer "actions" API to the MCAssembler API,
e.g. converting the various directives into fragments, managing state like
the current section, and so on.
- llvm-mc will use the new backend via '-filetype=obj', which may eventually
be, but is not yet, since I hear that people like assemblers which actually
assemble.
- The only thing that works at the moment is changing sections. For the time
being I have a Python Mach-O dumping tool in test/scripts so this stuff can
be easily tested, eventually I expect to replace this with a real LLVM tool.
- More doxyments to come.
I assume that since this stuff doesn't touch any of the things which are part of
2.6 that it is ok to put this in not so long before the freeze, but if someone
objects let me know, I can pull it.

- Add missing flags for various Objective-C sections.
- Fix names for [non_]lazy_symbol_pointer (these are misspelled in the manual).
- .symbol_stub does not have the self modifying code flag set (this appears to
be wrong in the manual?).
- Add implicit alignment values; not yet used.
Also, call MCStreamer::Finish at the end of a successful parse.

- This is cleaner, and makes bugpoint match the host instead of the build
architecture.

try to use i686-darwin to build for arm-eabi, you'll quickly run into
several false assumptions that the target OS must be the same as the
host OS. These patches split $(OS) into $(HOST_OS) and $(TARGET_OS) to
help builds like "make check" and the test-suite able to cross
compile. Along the way a target of *-unknown-eabi is defined as
"Freestanding" so that TARGET_OS checks have something to work with.

It doesn't stop or reconfigure the build, though, so the user will see
a broken build that magically succeeds at the next attempt. It is
technically possible to halt the build with a helpful message, and
even to automatically restart the build using the new dependencies as
it we did when llvm-config was used by cmake for learning
dependencies. This is left on the TODO list.

specific printer (this only works on x86, for now).
- This makes it possible to do some correctness checking of the parsing and
matching, since we can compare the results of 'as' on the original input, to
those of 'as' on the output from llvm-mc.
- In theory, we could now have an easy ATT -> Intel syntax converter. :)

and short. Well, it's kinda short. Definitely nasty and brutish.
The front-end generates the register/unregister calls into the SjLj runtime,
call-site indices and landing pad dispatch. The back end fills in the LSDA
with the call-site information provided by the front end. Catch blocks are
not yet implemented.
Built on Darwin and verified no llvm-core "make check" regressions.

instead of syntactically as a string. This means that it keeps track of the
segment, section, flags, etc directly and asmprints them in the right format.
This also includes parsing and validation support for llvm-mc and
"attribute(section)", so we should now start getting errors about invalid
section attributes from the compiler instead of the assembler on darwin.
Still todo:
1) Uniquing of darwin mcsections
2) Move all the Darwin stuff out to MCSectionMachO.[cpp|h]
3) there are a few FIXMEs, for example what is the syntax to get the
S_GB_ZEROFILL segment type?

- Part of optimal static profiling patch sequence by Andreas Neustifter.
- Store edge, block, and function information separately for each functions
(instead of in one giant map).
- Return frequencies as double instead of int, and use a sentinel value for
missing information.

I can clean this up a bit more and do way with the TheCondState and just use
the top element on the TheCondStack if not empty. Also may tweak the code
around ParseConditionalAssemblyDirectives() to simplify the AsmParser code.

just argv[0]. And remove the code for searching the current
working directory and for searching PATH; the point of FindExecutable
is not to find whatever version of the executable can be found by
searching around, but to find an executable that accompanies the
current executable.
Update the tools to use sys::Program::FindProgramByName when they
want PATH searching.
