We don't need to populate a string table, so we don't need to pre-parse the
remarks.
Split the bitstream2yaml and yaml2bitstream cases up so that we can avoid the
extra remark traversal in the bitstream2yaml case.
This kills the TODO.
Some compilers (like all the ones I've tried) seem to NVRO the
Expected<std::vector<unique_ptr>> but other ones (like some of the bots) seem
to not want to.
Change the return type to Error and pass in the vector as an output parameter
to try and fix things.
This adds llvm-remarkutil. This is intended to be a general tool for doing stuff
with/to remark files.
This patch gives it the following powers:
* `bitstream2yaml` - To convert bitstream remarks to YAML
* `yaml2bitstream` - To convert YAML remarks to bitstream remarks
These are both implemented as subcommands, like
`llvm-remarkutil bitstream2yaml <input_file> -o -`
I ran into an issue where I had some bitstream remarks coming from CI, and I
wanted to be able to do stuff with them (e.g. visualize them). But then I
noticed we didn't have any tooling for doing that, so I decided to write this
thing.
Being able to output YAML as a start seemed like a good idea, since it
would allow people to reuse any tooling they may have written based around YAML
remarks.
Hopefully it can grow into a more featureful remark utility. :)
Currently there are is an outstanding performance issue (see the TODO) with
the bitstream2yaml case. I decided that I'd keep the tool small to start with
and have the yaml2bitstream and bitstream2yaml cases be symmetric.
Also I moved the remarks documentation to its own header because it seems
a little out of place with "basic commands" and "developer tools"; it's
really kind of its own thing.
