[llvm-cov] Fix llvm-cov on Windows and un-XFAIL test
ClosedPublic

Authored by rnk on Feb 25 2019, 5:56 PM.

Details

Summary

The llvm-cov tool needs to be able to find coverage names in the
executable, so the .lprfn and .lcovmap sections cannot be merged into
.rdata.

Also, the linker merges .lprfn$M into .lprfn, so llvm-cov needs to
handle that when looking up sections. It has to support running on both
relocatable object files and linked PE files.

Lastly, when loading .lprfn from a PE file, llvm-cov needs to skip the
leading zero byte added by the profile runtime.

I suppose Names{Start,End} are needed on Windows so that we can find section boundaries.

Thanks, lgtm.

Yep. Along the way I tried this creative code pattern, which works with clang but not MSVC:

const char COMPILER_RT_SECTION(".lprfn$A") NamesStart[0] = {};
const char COMPILER_RT_SECTION(".lprfn$Z") NamesEnd[0] = {};

Thanks, lgtm.

Thanks!
