[X86] Do not use movq in -mcmodel=kernel on an out of range abs global (#163323) CFI can lead to some `relocation R_X86_64_32S out of range` errors when using thinlto. We have an instance of an `inline_bits` alias with a value of 0x8000008000000001 which cannot fit into a signed 32-bit reloc hence the error. This reloc is used because the instruction for reading the alias is `movq` which uses a signed 32-bit immediate. The proper instruction to use in this instance is `movabs` for the full 64-bit reloc. Under the kernel model, a signed 32-bit immediate was always used but if the target is a global with `absolue_symbol` we should reject the MOV64ri32. The pattern matching logic will eventually lead to a match for MOV64ri which emits the `movabs`.
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
