When implementing the DWARF accelerator tables in dsymutil I ran into an
assertion in the assembler. Debugging these kind of issues is a lot
easier when looking at the assembly instead of debugging the assembler
itself. Since it's only a matter of creating an AsmStreamer instead of a
MCObjectStreamer it made sense to turn this into a (hidden) dsymutil
feature.

This is a short-term fix for PR38093.
For now, we llvm::report_fatal_error if the instruction builder finds an
unsupported instruction in the instruction stream.
We need to revisit this fix once we start addressing PR38101.
Essentially, we need a better framework for error handling.

The reference implementation uses a case-insensitive string
comparison for strings of equal length. This will cause the
string "tEo" to compare less than "VUo". However we were using
a case sensitive comparison, which would generate the opposite
outcome. Switch to a case insensitive comparison. Also, when
one of the strings contains non-ascii characters, fallback to
a straight memcmp.
The only way to really test this is with a DIA test. Before this
patch, the test will fail (but succeed if link.exe is used instead
of lld-link). After the patch, it succeeds even with lld-link.

This patch moves the construction of the default backend from llvm-mca.cpp and
into mca::Context. The Context class is responsible for holding ownership of
the simulated hardware components. These components are subclasses of
HardwareUnit. Right now the HardwareUnit is pretty bare-bones, but eventually
we might want to add some common functionality across all hardware components,
such as isReady() or something similar.
I have a feeling this patch will probably need some updates, but it's a start.
One thing I am not particularly fond of is the rather large interface for
createDefaultPipeline. That convenience routine takes a rather large set of
inputs from the llvm-mca driver, where many of those inputs are generated via
command line options.
One item I think we might want to change is the separating of ownership of
hardware components (owned by the context) and the pipeline (which owns
Stages). In short, a Pipeline owns Stages, a Context (currently) owns hardware.
The Pipeline's Stages make use of the components, and thus there is a lifetime
dependency generated. The components must outlive the pipeline. We could solve
this by having the Context also own the Pipeline, and not return a
unique_ptr<Pipeline>. Now that I think about it, I like that idea more.

This patch modifies the Scheduler heuristic used to select the next instruction
to issue to the pipelines.
The motivating example is test X86/BtVer2/add-sequence.s, for which llvm-mca
wrongly reported an estimated IPC of 1.50. According to perf, the actual IPC for
that test should have been ~2.00.
It turns out that an IPC of 2.00 for test add-sequence.s cannot possibly be
predicted by a Scheduler that only prioritizes instructions based on their
"age". A similar issue also affected test X86/BtVer2/dependent-pmuld-paddd.s,
for which llvm-mca wrongly estimated an IPC of 0.84 instead of an IPC of 1.00.
Instructions in the ReadyQueue are now ranked based on two factors:
- The "age" of an instruction.
- The number of unique users of writes associated with an instruction.
The new logic still prioritizes older instructions over younger instructions to
minimize the pressure on the reorder buffer. However, the number of users of an
instruction now also affects the overall rank. This potentially increases the
ability of the Scheduler to extract instruction level parallelism. This patch
fixes the problem with the wrong IPC reported for test add-sequence.s and test
dependent-pmuld-paddd.s.

We add an option to dump the entire global / public symbol record
stream. Previously we would dump globals or publics, but not both.
And when we did dump them, we would always dump them in the order
they were referenced by the corresponding hash streams, not in
the order they were serialized in. This patch adds a lower level
mode that just dumps the whole stream in serialization order.
Additionally, when dumping global-extras, we now dump the hash
bitmap as well as the record offset instead of dumping all zeros
for the offsets.

Different CodeBlocks don't overlap. The same MCInst cannot appear in more than
one code block because all blocks are instantiated before the simulation is run.
We should always clear the content of map VariantDescriptors before every
simulation, since VariantDescriptors cannot possibly store useful information
for the next blocks. It is also "safer" to clear its content because `MCInst*`
is used as the key type for map VariantDescriptors.

On darwin, all virtual sections have zerofill type, and having a
.zerofill directive in a non-virtual section is not allowed. Instead of
asserting, show a nicer error.
In order to use the equivalent of .zerofill in a non-virtual section,

Currently the llvm-exegesis native architecture is determined by comparing the
llvm native architecture with X86, so to add a new target would mean adding a
new check. Change this to building up a list of the targets llvm-exegesis
supports then using that, as this means that when adding a new target you just
add the target to the list of supported targets.

The original binary holder has an optimization where it caches a static
library (archive) between consecutive calls to GetObjects. However, the
actual memory buffer wasn't cached between calls.
This made sense when dsymutil was processing objects one after each
other, but when processing them in parallel, several binaries have to be
in memory at the same time. For this reason, every link context
contained a binary holder.
Having one binary holder per context is problematic, because the same
static archive was cached for every object file. Luckily, when the file
is mmap'ed, this was only costing us virtual memory.
This patch introduces a new BinaryHolder variant that is fully cached,
for all the object files it load, as well as the static archives. This
way, we don't have to give up on this optimization of bypassing the
file system.

This simplifies the logic that updates RAW dependencies in the DispatchStage.
There is no advantage in storing that flag in the ReadDescriptor; we should
simply rely on the call to `STI.getReadAdvanceCycles()` to obtain the
ReadAdvance cycles. If there are no read-advance entries, then method
`getReadAdvanceCycles()` quickly returns 0.

Summary:
This patch removes a few callbacks from Pipeline. It comes at the cost of
registering Listeners with all Stages. Not all stages need listeners or issue
callbacks, this registration is a bit redundant. However, as we build-out the
API, this redundancy can disappear.
The main purpose here is to move callback code from the Pipeline and into the
stages that actually issue those callbacks. This removes the back-pointer to
the Pipeline that was put into a few Stage subclasses.

Report an error in -check-debugify when the size of a dbg.value operand
doesn't match up with the size of the variable it describes.
Eventually this check should be moved into the IR verifier. For the

of catching regressions and finding existing bugs.
Here are some instances of bugs the new check finds in the -O2 pipeline
(all in InstCombine):
1) A float is used where a double is expected:
ERROR: dbg.value operand has size 32, but its variable has size 64:
call void @llvm.dbg.value(metadata float %expf, metadata !12, metadata
!DIExpression()), !dbg !15

call void @llvm.dbg.value(metadata i8 %t4, metadata !14, metadata
!DIExpression()), !dbg !24
3) A <4 x i32> is used where something twice as large is expected
(perhaps a <4 x i64>, I haven't double-checked):
ERROR: dbg.value operand has size 128, but its variable has size 256:
