2) Associate liveness of the array with that of the runtime hook variable
__llvm_profile_runtime.
3) Perform the runtime initialization through the runtime hook variable.
4) Preserve the runtime hook variable using the -u linker flag.

This patch switches the PGO implementation on AIX from using the runtime
registration-based section tracking to the __start_SECNAME/__stop_SECNAME
based. In order to enable the recognition of __start_SECNAME/__stop_SECNAME
symbols in the AIX linker, the -bdbg:namedsects:ss needs to be used.

Existing code tended to assume that counters had type `uint64_t` and
computed size from the number of counters. Fix this code to directly
compute the counters size in number of bytes where possible. When the
number of counters is needed, use `__llvm_profile_counter_entry_size()`
or `getCounterTypeSize()`. In a later diff these functions will depend
on the profile mode.
Change the meaning of `DataSize` and `CountersSize` to make them more clear.
* `DataSize` (`CountersSize`) - the size of the data (counter) section in bytes.
* `NumData` (`NumCounters`) - the number of data (counter) entries.

This patch adds support to read all the PT_NOTE segments in the

the first PT_NOTE segment, and this was missing the cases where
binary id is in the following segments. As a result, binary-id.c

Some tests with binary IDs would fail with error: no profile can be merged.
This is because raw profiles could have unaligned headers when emitting binary
IDs. This means padding should be emitted after binary IDs are emitted to
ensure everything else is aligned. This patch adds padding after each binary ID
to ensure the next binary ID size is 8-byte aligned. This also adds extra
checks to ensure we aren't reading corrupted data when printing binary IDs.

The Solaris buildbots have been broken for some time by the unconditional
use of `NT_GNU_BUILD_ID`, e.g. Solaris/sparcv9
<https://lab.llvm.org/staging/#/builders/50/builds/4910> and Solaris/amd64
<https://lab.llvm.org/staging/#/builders/101/builds/3751>. Being a GNU
extension, it is not defined in `<sys/elf.h>`. However, providing a
fallback definition doesn't help because the code also relies on
`__ehdr_start`, another unportable GNU extension that most likely never
will be implemented in Solaris `ld`. Besides, there's reallly no point in
supporting build ids since they aren't used on Solaris at all.
This patch fixes this by making the relevant code conditional on the
definition of `NT_GNU_BUILD_ID`.
Tested on `amd64-pc-solaris2.11` and `sparcv9-sun-solaris2.11`.

This patch changes the linkage type of a compiler-rt func

To make a kind of metadata section usage work, we want to drop the
`__start_/__stop_ references retain C identifier name sections` rule from LLD (see D96914).
If an application has no `__llvm_prf_data` input section surviving --gc-sections,
LLD will error for undefined hidden `{__start_,__stop_}__llvm_prf_*` from `libclang_rt.profile-*`.
Other `__llvm_prf_*` sections have similar issues.
Making the references weak can address the problem.
This probably enables the opportunity to drop zero size dummy sections in `InstrProfilingPlatformLinux.c`.

D14468 added these dummy sections. This patch adds `__attribute__((used))` so
that when compiled by GCC>=11 or (expected, D96838) Clang>=13 on some ELF platforms,
these sections will get SHF_GNU_RETAIN to make sure they will not be discarded
by ld --gc-sections.
We are trying to get rid of LLD's "__start_/__stop_ references retain C identifier name sections" rule.
If LLD drops the rule in the future (we will retain compatibility for `__llvm_prf_*` for a while),
`__llvm_prf_*` will need to have the SHF_GNU_RETAIN flag, otherwise:
```
// __llvm_prf_cnts/__llvm_prf_data usually exist, but {names,vnds} may not exist.
// Such diagnostics will happen with {cnts,data} as well if no input object file is instrumented.

Unlike GNU `ld` (which primarily operates on section names) the Solaris
linker, following the ELF spirit, only merges input sections into an output
section if both section name and section flags match, so two separate
sections are maintained.
The read-write one comes from `lib/clang/12.0.0/lib/sunos/libclang_rt.profile-i386.a(InstrProfilingPlatformLinux.c.o)`
while the read-only one is generated by
`llvm/lib/Transforms/Instrumentation/InstrProfiling.cpp` (`InstrProfiling::emitNameData`)
at l.1004 where `isConstant = true`.
The easiest way to avoid the mismatch is to change the definition in
`compiler-rt/lib/profile/InstrProfilingPlatformLinux.c` to `const`.
This fixes all failures observed.
Tested on `amd64-pc-solaris2.11`, `sparcv9-sun-solaris2.11`, and
`x86_64-pc-linux-gnu`.

The !associated metadata may be attached to a global object declaration
with a single argument that references another global object. This
metadata prevents discarding of the global object in linker GC unless
the referenced object is also discarded.
Furthermore, when a function symbol is discarded by the linker, setting
up !associated metadata allows linker to discard counters, data and
values associated with that function symbol. This is not possible today
because there's metadata to guide the linker. This approach is also used
by other instrumentations like sanitizers.
Note that !associated metadata is only supported by ELF, it does not have
any effect on non-ELF targets.

In this patch, Darwin should be working with testing case. Linux should be working,
I will enable the testing case in a follwup diff. Windows/Other should be building.

Summary:
The motivating use case is eliminating duplicate profile data registered
for the same inline function in two object files. Before this change,
users would observe multiple symbol definition errors with VC link, but
links with LLD would succeed.
Users (Mozilla) have reported that PGO works well with clang-cl and LLD,
but when using LLD without this static registration, we would get into a
"relocation against a discarded section" situation. I'm not sure what
happens in that situation, but I suspect that duplicate, unused profile
information was retained. If so, this change will reduce the size of
such binaries with LLD.
Now, Windows uses static registration and is in line with all the other
platforms.

We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and

NetBSD uses typical UNIX interfaces.
All tests pass except instrprof-dlopen-dlclose-gcov.test, as there
is not supported semantics of atexit(3) in dlopen(3)ed+dlclose(3)d
DSO.
NetBSD also ships an older version of LLVM profile (ABI v.2 predating
ABI v.4 in upstream version) inside libc. That copy has been manually
removed during the porting and testing process of the upstream version
to NetBSD. Otherwise there were conflicts between them two.

This ports the profiling runtime on Fuchsia and enables the
instrumentation. Unlike on other platforms, Fuchsia doesn't use
files to dump the instrumentation data since on Fuchsia, filesystem
may not be accessible to the instrumented process. We instead use
the data sink to pass the profiling data to the system the same
sanitizer runtimes do.

On Linux, the profile runtime can use __start_SECTNAME and __stop_SECTNAME
symbols defined by the linker to locate the start and end location of
a named section (with C name). This eliminates the need for instrumented
binary to call __llvm_profile_register_function during start-up time.
