The resulting profile will include the crate name and will be stored in
the `--out-dir` directory.
This implementation makes it convenient to use LLVM time trace together
with cargo, in the contrast to the previous implementation which would
overwrite profiles or store them in `.cargo/registry/..`.
We already use the object crate for generating uncompressed .rmeta
metadata object files. This switches the generation of compressed
.rustc object files to use the object crate as well. These have
slightly different requirements in that .rmeta should be completely
excluded from any final compilation artifacts, while .rustc should
be part of shared objects, but not loaded into memory.
The primary motivation for this change is #90326: In LLVM 14, the
current way of setting section flags (and in particular, preventing
the setting of SHF_ALLOC) will no longer work. There are other ways
we could work around this, but switching to the object crate seems
like the most elegant, as we already use it for .rmeta, and as it
makes this independent of the codegen backend. In particular, we
don't need separate handling in codegen_llvm and codegen_gcc.
codegen_cranelift should be able to reuse the implementation as
well, though I have omitted that here, as it is not based on
codegen_ssa.
This change mostly extracts the existing code for .rmeta handling
to allow using it for .rustc as well, and adjust the codegen
infrastructure to handle the metadata object file separately: We
no longer create a backend-specific module for it, and directly
produce the compiled module instead.
This does not fix#90326 by itself yet, as .llvmbc will need to be
handled separately.
In https://reviews.llvm.org/D71059 LLVM 11, the time trace profiler was
extended to support multiple threads.
`timeTraceProfilerInitialize` creates a thread local profiler instance.
When a thread finishes `timeTraceProfilerFinishThread` moves a thread
local instance into a global collection of instances. Finally when all
codegen work is complete `timeTraceProfilerWrite` writes data from the
current thread local instance and the instances in global collection
of instances.
Previously, the profiler was intialized on a single thread only. Since
this thread performs no code generation on its own, the resulting
profile was empty.
Update LLVM codegen to initialize & finish time trace profiler on each
code generation thread.
Provide `layout_of` automatically (given tcx + param_env + error handling).
After #88337, there's no longer any uses of `LayoutOf` within `rustc_target` itself, so I realized I could move the trait to `rustc_middle::ty::layout` and redesign it a bit.
This is similar to #88338 (and supersedes it), but at no ergonomic loss, since there's no funky `C: LayoutOf<Ty = Ty>` -> `Ty: TyAbiInterface<C>` generic `impl` chain, and each `LayoutOf` still corresponds to one `impl` (of `LayoutOfHelpers`) for the specific context.
After this PR, this is what's needed to get `trait LayoutOf` (with the `layout_of` method) implemented on some context type:
* `TyCtxt`, via `HasTyCtxt`
* `ParamEnv`, via `HasParamEnv`
* a way to transform `LayoutError`s into the desired error type
* an error type of `!` can be paired with having `cx.layout_of(...)` return `TyAndLayout` *without* `Result<...>` around it, such as used by codegen
* this is done through a new `LayoutOfHelpers` trait (and so is specifying the type of `cx.layout_of(...)`)
When going through this path (and not bypassing it with a manual `impl` of `LayoutOf`), the end result is that only the error case can be customized, the query itself and the success paths are guaranteed to be uniform.
(**EDIT**: just noticed that because of the supertrait relationship, you cannot actually implement `LayoutOf` yourself, the blanket `impl` fully covers all possible context types that could ever implement it)
Part of the motivation for this shape of API is that I've been working on querifying `FnAbi::of_*`, and what I want/need to introduce for that looks a lot like the setup in this PR - in particular, it's harder to express the `FnAbi` methods in `rustc_target`, since they're much more tied to `rustc` concepts.

Issue Details:
In some cases it is necessary to generate an "allocator shim" to forward various Rust allocation functions (e.g., `__rust_alloc`) to an underlying function (e.g., `malloc`). However, since this allocator shim is a manually created LLVM module it is not processed via the normal module processing code and so no debug info is generated for it (if debugging info is enabled).
Fix Details:
* Modify the `debuginfo` code to allow creating debug info for a module without a `CodegenCx` (since it is difficult, and expensive, to create one just to emit some debug info).
* After creating the allocator shim add in basic debug info.
This commit removes the `TargetMachineFactory` struct and adds a
`TargetMachineFactoryFn` type alias which is used everywhere that the
previous, long type was used.

Codegen backend interface refactor
This moves several things away from the codegen backend to rustc_interface. There are a few behavioral changes where previously the incremental cache (incorrectly) wouldn't get finalized, but now it does. See the individual commit messages.

Guarded with `#![feature(default_alloc_error_handler)]` a default
`alloc_error_handler` is called, if a custom allocator is used and no
other custom `#[alloc_error_handler]` is defined.
The panic message does not contain the size anymore, because it would
pull in the fmt machinery, which would blow up the code size
significantly.
