This PR is to improve the driver code to build `flang-rt` path by
re-using the logic and code of `compiler-rt`.
1. Moved `addFortranRuntimeLibraryPath` and `addFortranRuntimeLibs` to
`ToolChain.h` and made them virtual so that they can be overridden if
customization is needed. The current implementation of those two
procedures is moved to `ToolChain.cpp` as the base implementation to
default to.
2. Both AIX and PPCLinux now override `addFortranRuntimeLibs`.
The overriding function of `addFortranRuntimeLibs` for both AIX and
PPCLinux calls `getCompilerRTArgString` => `getCompilerRT` =>
`buildCompilerRTBasename` to get the path to `flang-rt`. This code
handles `LLVM_ENABLE_PER_TARGET_RUNTIME_DIR` setting. As shown in
`PPCLinux.cpp`, `FT_static` is the default. If not found, it will search
and build for `FT_shared`. To differentiate `flang-rt` from `clang-rt`,
a boolean flag `IsFortran` is passed to the chain of functions in order
to reach `buildCompilerRTBasename`.
When building Flang with Clang, we need to do the same quadmath.h
wrapping as we do for flang-rt. I extracted the CMake code
into FlangCommon.cmake, and cleaned up the arguments passing
to execute_process (note that `-###` was treated as `-` in the original
code, because `#` starts a comment). I believe the Clang command
does not require the input source file, so I removed it as well.
Summary:
This patch adds initial support for compiling `flang-rt` directly for
the GPU. The method used here matches what's already done for `libc` and
`libc++` for the GPU and builds off of those projects.
Mainly this requires setting up some flags and setting the sources that
currently work. This will deposit the resulting library in the
appropriate directory. These files are then intended to be linked via
`-Xoffload-linker` support in the offloading driver.
```
lib/clang/21/lib/nvptx64-nvidia-cuda/libflang_rt.runtime.a
lib/clang/21/lib/amdgcn-amd-amdhsa/libflang_rt.runtime.a
```
This is obviously missing a lot of functions, mainly the `io` support.
Most of what we cannot support is due to using POSIX things that just
don't make sense on the GPU. Stuff like `pthreads` or `sema`.
Getting unit tests to run on this will also be a challenge. We could run
tests the same way we do with `libc`, but the problem there is that the
`libc` test suite is freestanding while `gtest` currently doesn't
compile on the GPU bcause it uses a lot of weird stuff. If the unit
tests were simply `int main` then it would work.
I don't understand the actual runtime code very well, I'd appreciate
some guidance on how to actually support Fortran IO from this interface.
As I understand it, Fortran IO requires a stack-like operation, which
conflicts with the SIMT model GPUs use. Worst case scenario we could
burn some LDS to keep a stack, or serialize it somehow since we can
always just iterate over all the active lanes.
Building this right now looks like this, which depends on the arguments
added in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/131695.

Summary:
This patch adds an interface that uses an in-tree build of LLVM's libc
and libc++.
This is done using the `-DFLANG_RT_LIBC_PROVIDER=llvm` and
`-DFLANG_RT_LIBCXX_PROVIDER=llvm` options. Using `libc` works in terms
of CMake, but the LLVM libc is not yet complete enough to compile all
the files.
When compiling Flang-RT with Clang, query Clang for the GCC installation
it uses. If found, create `quadmath_wrapper.h` that points to the
`quadmath.h` of that GCC installation.
`quadmath.h` is only available when compiling with gcc, and Clang has no
equivalent even though gcc's version compiles fine with Clang (at least
up to and including gcc 13). It is still available into gcc's
installation resource dir (in constrast to a system-wide indirectory
such as `/usr/include` or `/usr/local/include`) and therefore not
available to any compiler other than the gcc of that installation.
quadmath may also be a different OS package than gcc itself, so it is
not necessarily presesent.
Clang actually already appropriates a GCC installation for its libraries
such that `libquadmath.a` is already found, but it does not do so for
the include paths. Because adding that directory to the header search
path may have wide-reaching consquences, we create only a wrapper header
that points to the real `quadmath.h` in the same GCC installation that
Clang uses.
This patch is to explicitly link the pthread library when building
shared flang-rt.
On AIX, for example, it needs to link in `libpthread.a` explicitly in
order to resolve the references to those `pthread_*` functions in
`include/flang-rt/runtime/lock.h`
Under non-Windows platforms, also create a dynamic library version of
the runtime. Build of either version of the library can be switched on
using FLANG_RT_ENABLE_STATIC=ON respectively FLANG_RT_ENABLE_SHARED=ON.
Default is to build only the static library, consistent with previous
behaviour. This is because the way the flang driver invokes the linker,
most linkers choose the dynamic library by default, if available.
Building the dynamic library therefore causes flang-built executables to
depend on `libflang_rt.so`, unless explicitly told otherwise.
Extract Flang's runtime library to use the LLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIME
mechanism. It will only become active when
`LLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES=flang-rt` is used, which also changes the
`FLANG_INCLUDE_RUNTIME` to `OFF` so the old runtime build rules do not
conflict. This also means that unless `LLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES=flang-rt` is
passed, nothing changes with the current build process.
Motivation:
* Consistency with LLVM's other runtime libraries (compiler-rt, libc,
libcxx, openmp offload, ...)
* Allows compiling the runtime for multiple targets at once using the
LLVM_RUNTIME_TARGETS configuration options
* Installs the runtime into the compiler's per-target resource directory
so it can be automatically found even when cross-compiling

Mostly mechanical changes in preparation of extracting the Flang-RT
"subproject" in #110217. This PR intends to only move pre-existing files
to the new folder structure, with no behavioral change. Common files
(headers, testing, cmake) shared by Flang-RT and Flang remain in
`flang/`.
Some cosmetic changes and files paths were necessary:
* Relative paths to the new path for the source files and
`add_subdirectory`.
* Add the new location's include directory to `include_directories`
* The unittest/Evaluate directory has unitests for flang-rt and Flang. A
new `CMakeLists.txt` was introduced for the flang-rt tests.
* Change the `#include` paths relative to the include directive
* clang-format on the `#include` directives
* Since the paths are part if the copyright header and include guards, a
script was used to canonicalize those
* `test/Runtime` and runtime tests in `test/Driver` are moved, but the
lit.cfg.py mechanism to execute the will only be added in #110217.
