// BasicBlockSections implementation.
//
// The purpose of this pass is to assign sections to basic blocks when
// -fbasic-block-sections= option is used. Further, with profile information
// only the subset of basic blocks with profiles are placed in separate sections
// and the rest are grouped in a cold section. The exception handling blocks are
// treated specially to ensure they are all in one seciton.
//
// Basic Block Sections
// ====================
//
// With option, -fbasic-block-sections=list, every function may be split into
// clusters of basic blocks. Every cluster will be emitted into a separate
// section with its basic blocks sequenced in the given order. To get the
// optimized performance, the clusters must form an optimal BB layout for the
// function. We insert a symbol at the beginning of every cluster's section to
// allow the linker to reorder the sections in any arbitrary sequence. A global
// order of these sections would encapsulate the function layout.
// For example, consider the following clusters for a function foo (consisting
// of 6 basic blocks 0, 1, ..., 5).
//
// 0 2
// 1 3 5
//
// * Basic blocks 0 and 2 are placed in one section with symbol `foo`
// referencing the beginning of this section.
// * Basic blocks 1, 3, 5 are placed in a separate section. A new symbol
// `foo.__part.1` will reference the beginning of this section.
// * Basic block 4 (note that it is not referenced in the list) is placed in
// one section, and a new symbol `foo.cold` will point to it.
//
// There are a couple of challenges to be addressed:
//
// 1. The last basic block of every cluster should not have any implicit
// fallthrough to its next basic block, as it can be reordered by the linker.
// The compiler should make these fallthroughs explicit by adding
// unconditional jumps..
//
// 2. All inter-cluster branch targets would now need to be resolved by the
// linker as they cannot be calculated during compile time. This is done
// using static relocations. Further, the compiler tries to use short branch
// instructions on some ISAs for small branch offsets. This is not possible
// for inter-cluster branches as the offset is not determined at compile
// time, and therefore, long branch instructions have to be used for those.
//
// 3. Debug Information (DebugInfo) and Call Frame Information (CFI) emission
// needs special handling with basic block sections. DebugInfo needs to be
// emitted with more relocations as basic block sections can break a
// function into potentially several disjoint pieces, and CFI needs to be
// emitted per cluster. This also bloats the object file and binary sizes.
//
// Basic Block Labels
// ==================
//
// With -fbasic-block-sections=labels, we encode the offsets of BB addresses of
// every function into the .llvm_bb_addr_map section. Along with the function
// symbols, this allows for mapping of virtual addresses in PMU profiles back to
// the corresponding basic blocks. This logic is implemented in AsmPrinter. This
// pass only assigns the BBSectionType of every function to ``labels``.
