Renaming the option is based on discussions in https://reviews.llvm.org/D101122.
It is normally not a good idea to rename driver flags but this flag is
new enough and obscure enough that it is very unlikely to have adopters.
While we're here also drop the `<kind>` metavar. It's not necessary and
is actually inconsistent with the documentation in
`clang/docs/ClangCommandLineReference.rst`.

Now that the WebAssembly SIMD specification is finalized and engines are
generally up-to-date, there is no need for a separate target feature for gating
SIMD instructions that engines have not implemented. With this change,
v128.const is now enabled by default with the simd128 target feature.

The new `-fsanitize-address-destructor-kind=` option allows control over how module
destructors are emitted by ASan.
The new option is consumed by both the driver and the frontend and is propagated into
codegen options by the frontend.
Both the legacy and new pass manager code have been updated to consume the new option
from the codegen options.
It would be nice if the new utility functions (`AsanDtorKindToString` and
`AsanDtorKindFromString`) could live in LLVM instead of Clang so they could be
consumed by other language frontends. Unfortunately that doesn't work because
the clang driver doesn't link against the LLVM instrumentation library.

This change implements support for applying profile instrumentation
only to selected files or functions. The implementation uses the
sanitizer special case list format to select which files and functions
to instrument, and relies on the new noprofile IR attribute to exclude
functions from instrumentation.

D94700 removed the static library so we no longer need to pass
`-llibomptarget-nvptx` to `nvlink`. Since the bitcode library is the only device
runtime for now, instead of emitting a warning when it is not found, an error
should be raised. We also set a new option `libomptarget-nvptx-bc-path` to let
user choose which bitcode library is being used.

The help text for `-I` was recently expanded in [1]. The expanded
version focuses on explaining the semantics of `-I` in Clang. We are now
in the process of adding support for `-I` in Flang and this new
description is incompatible with the semantics of `-I` in Flang. This
was brought up in this review:
* https://reviews.llvm.org/D93453
This patch reverts the original change in Options.td. This way the help
text for `-I` remains generic enough so that it applies to both Clang
and Flang.
The expanded description of `-I` from [1] is moved to the
`DocBrief` field for `-I`. This field is prioritised over the help text
when generating ClangCommandLineReference.rst, so the user facing
documentation for Clang retains the expanded description:
* https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangCommandLineReference.html
`DocBrief` fields are currently not used in Flang.
As requested in the reviews, the help text and the expanded description
are slightly refined.

PowerPC cores like e200z759n3 [1] using an efpu2 only support single precision
hardware floating point instructions. The single precision instructions efs*
and evfs* are identical to the spe float instructions while efd* and evfd*
instructions trigger a not implemented exception.
This patch introduces a new command line option -mefpu2 which leads to
single-hardware / double-software code generation.

SUMMARY:
In IBM compiler xlclang , there is an option -fnovisibility which suppresses visibility. For more details see: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSGH3R_16.1.0/com.ibm.xlcpp161.aix.doc/compiler_ref/opt_visibility.html.
We need to add the option -mignore-xcoff-visibility for compatibility with the IBM AIX OS (as the option is enabled by default in AIX). With this option llvm does not emit any visibility attribute to ASM or XCOFF object file.
The option only work on the AIX OS, for other non-AIX OS using the option will report an unsupported options error.
In AIX OS:
1.1 the option -mignore-xcoff-visibility is enabled by default , if there is not -fvisibility=* and -mignore-xcoff-visibility explicitly in the clang command .
1.2 if there is -fvisibility=* explicitly but not -mignore-xcoff-visibility explicitly in the clang command. it will generate visibility attributes.
1.3 if there are both -fvisibility=* and -mignore-xcoff-visibility explicitly in the clang command. The option "-mignore-xcoff-visibility" wins , it do not emit the visibility attribute.
The option -mignore-xcoff-visibility has no effect on visibility attribute when compile with -emit-llvm option to generated LLVM IR.

We currently have strict floating point/constrained floating point enabled
for all targets. Constrained SDAG nodes get converted to the regular ones
before reaching the target layer. In theory this should be fine.
However, the changes are exposed to users through multiple clang options
already in use in the field, and the changes are _completely_ _untested_
on almost all of our targets. Bugs have already been found, like
"https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45274".
This patch disables constrained floating point options in clang everywhere
except X86 and SystemZ. A warning will be printed when this happens.
Use the new -fexperimental-strict-floating-point flag to force allowing
strict floating point on hosts that aren't already marked as supporting
it (X86 and SystemZ).

This patch creates a clang flag to enable SESES. This flag also ensures that
lvi-cfi is on when using seses via clang.
SESES should use lvi-cfi to mitigate returns and indirect branches.
The flag to enable the SESES functionality only without lvi-cfi is now
-x86-seses-enable-without-lvi-cfi to warn users part of the mitigation is not
enabled if they use this flag. This is useful in case folks want to see the
cost of SESES separate from the LVI-CFI.

Summary:
Change the default ABI to be compatible with GCC. For 32-bit ELF
targets other than Linux, Clang now returns small structs in registers
r3/r4. This affects FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD. There is no change for
32-bit Linux, where Clang continues to return all structs in memory.
Add clang options -maix-struct-return (to return structs in memory) and
-msvr4-struct-return (to return structs in registers) to be compatible
with gcc. These options are only for PPC32; reject them on PPC64 and
other targets. The options are like -fpcc-struct-return and
-freg-struct-return for X86_32, and use similar code.
To actually return a struct in registers, coerce it to an integer of the
same size. LLVM may optimize the code to remove unnecessary accesses to
memory, and will return i32 in r3 or i64 in r3:r4.

This pass replaces each indirect call/jump with a direct call to a thunk that looks like:
lfence
jmpq *%r11
This ensures that if the value in register %r11 was loaded from memory, then
the value in %r11 is (architecturally) correct prior to the jump.
Also adds a new target feature to X86: +lvi-cfi
("cfi" meaning control-flow integrity)
The feature can be added via clang CLI using -mlvi-cfi.
This is an alternate implementation to https://reviews.llvm.org/D75934 That merges the thunk insertion functionality with the existing X86 retpoline code.
