This patch adds a pipeline to support in-order CPUs such as ARM
Cortex-A55.
In-order pipeline implements a simplified version of Dispatch,
Scheduler and Execute stages as a single stage. Entry and Retire
stages are common for both in-order and out-of-order pipelines.

For some build configurations, `check-all` calls lit multiple times to
run multiple lit test suites. Most recently, I've found this to be
true when configuring openmp as part of `LLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES`, but
this is not the first time.
If one test suite fails, none of the remaining test suites run, so you
cannot determine if your patch has broken them. It can then be
frustrating to try to determine which `check-` targets will run the
remaining tests without getting stuck on the failing tests.
When such cases arise, it is probably best to adjust the cmake
configuration for `check-all` to run all test suites as part of one
lit invocation. Because that fix will likely not be implemented and
land immediately, this patch introduces `--ignore-fail` to serve as a
workaround for developers trying to see test results until it does
land:
```
$ LIT_OPTS=--ignore-fail ninja check-all
```
One problem with `--ignore-fail` is that it makes it challenging to
detect test failures in a script, perhaps in CI. This problem should
serve as motivation to actually fix the cmake configuration instead of
continuing to use `--ignore-fail` indefinitely.

Some test systems do not use lit for test discovery but only for its
substitution and test selection because they use another way of managing
test collections, e.g. CTest. This forces those tests to be invoked with
lit --no-indirectly-run-check. When a mix of lit version is in use, it
requires to detect the availability of that option.
This commit provides a new config option standalone_tests to signal a
directory made of tests meant to run as standalone. When this option is
set, lit skips test discovery and the indirectly run check. It also adds
the missing documentation for --no-indirectly-run-check.

This stack of changes introduces `llvm-profgen` utility which generates a profile data file from given perf script data files for sample-based PGO. It’s part of(not only) the CSSPGO work. Specifically to support context-sensitive with/without pseudo probe profile, it implements a series of functionalities including perf trace parsing, instruction symbolization, LBR stack/call frame stack unwinding, pseudo probe decoding, etc. Also high throughput is achieved by multiple levels of sample aggregation and compatible format with one stop is generated at the end. Please refer to: https://groups.google.com/g/llvm-dev/c/1p1rdYbL93s for the CSSPGO RFC.
This change supports context-sensitive profile data generation into llvm-profgen. With simultaneous sampling for LBR and call stack, we can identify leaf of LBR sample with calling context from stack sample . During the process of deriving fall through path from LBR entries, we unwind LBR by replaying all the calls and returns (including implicit calls/returns due to inlining) backwards on top of the sampled call stack. Then the state of call stack as we unwind through LBR always represents the calling context of current fall through path.
we have two types of virtual unwinding 1) LBR unwinding and 2) linear range unwinding.
Specifically, for each LBR entry which can be classified into call, return, regular branch, LBR unwinding will replay the operation by pushing, popping or switching leaf frame towards the call stack and since the initial call stack is most recently sampled, the replay should be in anti-execution order, i.e. for the regular case, pop the call stack when LBR is call, push frame on call stack when LBR is return. After each LBR processed, it also needs to align with the next LBR by going through instructions from previous LBR's target to current LBR's source, which we named linear unwinding. As instruction from linear range can come from different function by inlining, linear unwinding will do the range splitting and record counters through the range with same inline context.
With each fall through path from LBR unwinding, we aggregate each sample into counters by the calling context and eventually generate full context sensitive profile (without relying on inlining) to driver compiler's PGO/FDO.
A breakdown of noteworthy changes:
- Added `HybridSample` class as the abstraction perf sample including LBR stack and call stack
* Extended `PerfReader` to implement auto-detect whether input perf script output contains CS profile, then do the parsing. Multiple `HybridSample` are extracted
* Speed up by aggregating `HybridSample` into `AggregatedSamples`
* Added VirtualUnwinder that consumes aggregated `HybridSample` and implements unwinding of calls, returns, and linear path that contains implicit call/return from inlining. Ranges and branches counters are aggregated by the calling context. Here calling context is string type, each context is a pair of function name and callsite location info, the whole context is like `main:1 @ foo:2 @ bar`.
* Added PorfileGenerater that accumulates counters by ranges unfolding or branch target mapping, then generates context-sensitive function profile including function body, inferring callee's head sample, callsite target samples, eventually records into ProfileMap.
* Leveraged LLVM build-in(`SampleProfWriter`) writer to support different serialization format with no stop
- `getCanonicalFnName` for callee name and name from ELF section
- Added regression test for both unwinding and profile generation

As a starter, this change sets up an entry point by introducing PerfReader to load profiled binaries and perf traces(including perf events and perf samples). For the event, here it parses the mmap2 events from perf script to build the loader snaps, which is used to retrieve the image load address in the subsequent perf tracing parsing.
As described in llvm-profgen.rst, the tool being built aims to support multiple input perf data (preprocessed by perf script) as well as multiple input binary images. It should also support dynamic reload/unload shared objects by leveraging the loader snaps being built by this change

When diffing disassembly dump of two binaries, I see lots of noises from mismatched jump target addresses and global data references, which unnecessarily causes diffs on every function, making it impractical. I'm trying to symbolize the raw binary addresses to minimize the diff noise.
In this change, a local branch target is modeled as a label and the branch target operand will simply be printed as a label. Local labels are collected by a separate pre-decoding pass beforehand. A global data memory operand will be printed as a global symbol instead of the raw data address. Unfortunately, due to the way the disassembler is set up and to be less intrusive, a global symbol is always printed as the last operand of a memory access instruction. This is less than ideal but is probably acceptable from checking code quality point of view since on most targets an instruction can have at most one memory operand.
So far only the X86 disassemblers are supported.
Test Plan:
llvm-objdump -d --x86-asm-syntax=intel --no-show-raw-insn --no-leading-addr :
```
Disassembly of section .text:
<_start>:
push rax
mov dword ptr [rsp + 4], 0
mov dword ptr [rsp], 0
mov eax, dword ptr [rsp]
cmp eax, dword ptr [rip + 4112] # 202182 <g>
jge 0x20117e <_start+0x25>
call 0x201158 <foo>
inc dword ptr [rsp]
jmp 0x201169 <_start+0x10>
xor eax, eax
pop rcx
ret
```
llvm-objdump -d **--symbolize-operands** --x86-asm-syntax=intel --no-show-raw-insn --no-leading-addr :
```
Disassembly of section .text:
<_start>:
push rax
mov dword ptr [rsp + 4], 0
mov dword ptr [rsp], 0
<L1>:
mov eax, dword ptr [rsp]
cmp eax, dword ptr <g>
jge <L0>
call <foo>
inc dword ptr [rsp]
jmp <L1>
<L0>:
xor eax, eax
pop rcx
ret
```
Note that the jump instructions like `jge 0x20117e <_start+0x25>` without this work is printed as a real target address and an offset from the leading symbol. With a change in the optimizer that adds/deletes an instruction, the address and offset may shift for targets placed after the instruction. This will be a problem when diffing the disassembly from two optimizers where there are unnecessary false positives due to such branch target address changes. With `--symbolize-operand`, a label is printed for a branch target instead to reduce the false positives. Similarly, the disassemble of PC-relative global variable references is also prone to instruction insertion/deletion.
