rG21f831134c90: [lld-macho] Add very basic support for LTO
Summary

Just enough to consume some bitcode files and link them. There's more
to be done around the symbol resolution API and the LTO config, but I don't yet
understand what all the various LTO settings do...

Out of curiosity: are going to add distributed thinlto?
e.g. https://reviews.llvm.org/D46034

322–323

Why not write this as:

if (Optional<DylibFile *> dylib = makeDylibFromTAPI(mbref))
  newFile = *dylib;
332–333

LLVM style generally does not compare against nullptr or NULL.

lld/MachO/LTO.cpp

Could we not just do a .reserve on the std::vector on L37 and then do an emplace_back on the vector and use a range based for loop, and avoid the unnecessary construction and replacement of the resolutions?

@tschuett we'll want to implement that eventually, but it's not a priority. Thanks for the pointer to that diff!

This needs a test file with more than one input file.

I actually did try doing that (with 2 files), but it appears that the ltoObj compiled both of them in the same thread. Any idea how to get it to deterministically use more than 1?

MachO/CMakeLists.txt needs 3 dependencies LTO/MC/Passes otherwise it will fail to build in -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=on mode due to -Wl,-z,defs

Ah, partitions is a ThinLTO concept. You'll need opt -module-summary a.ll -o a.o instead of llvm-as

Thanks for the pointer! I've added the test, let me know if it looks right

pack into one test file

fix

it would be nice to check that the other temp files *don't* exist, but I'm not sure how to do that in a cross-platform way in llvm-lit
