actuall addresses in a .o file, so it is better to let the MachO writer compute
it.
This is good for two reasons. First, areas that shouldn't care about
addresses now don't have access to it. Second, the layout of each section
is independent. I should use this in a subsequent commit to speed it up.
Most of the patch is just removing the section address computation. The two
interesting parts are the change on how we handle padding in the end
of sections and how MachO can get the address of a-b when a and b are in
different sections.
Since now the expression evaluation normally doesn't know the section address,
it will think that a-b needs relocation and let the MachO writer know. Once
it has computed the section addresses, it calls back the expression evaluation
with the section addresses to resolve these expressions.
The remaining problem is the handling of padding. Currently it will create
a special alignment fragment at the end. Since that fragment doesn't update
the alignment of the section, it needs the real address to be computed.
Since now the layout will not compute a-b with a and b in different sections,
the only effect that the special alignment fragment has is update the
address size of the section. This can also be done by the MachO writer.

foo = a - b
.long foo
instead of just
.long a - b
First, on darwin9 64 bits the assembler produces the wrong result. Second,
if "a" is the end of the section all darwin assemblers (9, 10 and mc) will not
consider a - b to be a constant but will if the dummy foo is created.
Split how we handle these cases. The first one is something MC should take care
of. The second one has to be handled by the caller.

doing that if the target is darwin10 or newer.
This fixes
*) Direct object emission was producing objects without the workaround on
darwin9.
*) Assembly printing was producing objects with the workaround on linux.

contain only data. Handle them specially instead of using AddSectionToTheEnd.
This moves a hack from the generic assembler to the elf writer. It is also
a bit faster and should make other improvements easier.

MCStreamer instead of just MCObjectStreamer. Address changes cannot
be as efficient as we have to use DW_LNE_set_addres, but at least
most of the logic is shared.
This will be used so that, with CodeGen still using EmitDwarfLocDirective,
llvm-gcc is able to produce debug_line sections without needing an
assembler that supports .loc.
llvm-svn: 119777
and testing is easier. A good example is the unknown-location.ll test that
now can just look for ".loc 1 0 0". We also don't use a DW_LNE_set_address for
every address change anymore.

variable if recursing fails to simplify it.
Factor AliasedSymbol to be a method of MCSymbol.
Update MCAssembler::EvaluateFixup to match the change in
EvaluateAsRelocatableImpl.
Remove the WeakRefExpr hack, as the object writer now sees the weakref with
no extra effort needed.
Nothing else is using MCTargetExpr, but keep it for now.
Now that the ELF writer sees relocations with aliases, handle
.weak foo2
foo2:
.weak bar2
.set bar2,foo2
.quad bar2
the same way gas does and produce a relocation with bar2.

This moves most of the isUsed logic to the MCSymbol itself. With this we
get a bit more relaxed about allowing definitions after uses: uses that
don't evaluate their argument immediately (jmp foo) are accepted.
ddunbar, this was the smallest compromise I could think of that lets us
accept gcc (and clang!) assembly.

nodes to indicate when ha16/lo16 modifiers should be used. This lets
us pass PowerPC/indirectbr.ll.
The one annoying thing about this patch is that the MCSymbolExpr isn't
expressive enough to represent ha16(label1-label2) which we need on
PowerPC. I have a terrible hack in the meantime, but this will have
to be revisited at some point.
Last major conversion item left is global variable references.
