Implements a backend targeting RV32GC and RV64GC, based on Linux standardizing around GC. The assembler is written to make it easy to disable usage of C, but because the sizes of some instruction sequences are compile-time constants, an additional build configuration would need to be defined to make use of it.
The assembler and disassembler cover every RV32/64GC instruction. The simulator covers all instructions except accessing CSRs and the floating point state accessible through such, include accrued exceptions and dynamic rounding mode.
Quirks:
- RISC-V is a compare-and-branch architecture, but some existing "architecture-independent" parts of the Dart compiler assume a condition code architecture. To avoid rewriting these parts, we use a peephole in the assembler to map to compare-and-branch. See Assembler::BranchIf. Luckily nothing depended on taking multiple branches on the same condition code set.
- There are no hardware overflow checks, so we must use Hacker's Delight style software checks. Often these are very cheap: if the sign of one operand is known, a single branch is needed.
- The ranges of RISC-V branches and jumps are such that we use 3 levels of generation for forward branches, instead of the 2 levels of near and far branches used on ARM[64]. Nearly all code is handled by the first two levels with 20-bits of range, with enormous regex matchers triggering the third level that uses aupic+jalr to get 32-bits of range.
- For PC-relative calls in AOT, we always generate auipc+jalr pairs with 32-bits of range, so we never generate trampolines.
- Only a subset of registers are available in some compressed instructions, so we assign the most popular uses to these registers. In particular, THR, TMP[2], CODE and PP. This has the effect of assigning CODE and PP to volatile registers in the C calling convention, whereas they are assigned preserved registers on the other architectures. As on ARM64, PP is untagged; this is so short indices can be accessed with a compressed instruction.
- There are no push or pop instructions, so combining pushes and pops is preferred so we can update SP once.
- The C calling convention has a strongly aligned stack, but unlike on ARM64 we don't need to use an alternate stack pointer. The author ensured language was added to the RISC-V psABI making the OS responsible for realigning the stack pointer for signal handlers, allowing Dart to leave the stack pointer misaligned from the C calling convention's point of view until a foreign call.
- We don't bother with the link register tracking done on ARM[64]. Instead we make use of an alternate link register to avoid inline spilling in the write barrier.
Unimplemented:
- non-trivial FFI cases
- Compressed pointers - No intention to implement.
- Unboxed SIMD - We might make use of the V extension registers when the V extension is ratified.
- BigInt intrinsics

To do this, BitsContainer is changed to be a more rope-like
representation of section portions. In addition to containing
most of the same information stored per-section previously, each
portion also has a section-relative offset that is calculated when
it is added. Thus, merging two compatible BitsContainer sections
is just adding the portions from the second to the first, tweaking
the section-relative offset for each.
Other changes in this CL:
* Create PseudoSections subclasses for the elf header, program
header table, and section header table, so we can treat them
more uniformly with the other parts of the ELF snapshot.
* We now only allocate as much BSS space in the snapshot as is needed
for any text sections in the snapshot, instead of always allocating
a big enough BSS space for both VM and isolate, even for deferred
snapshots where there is no VM isolate.
* We already separated segment and section alignment in previous CLs,
so the fact that our own ELF loader needs load segments to be
page-aligned no longer means that the sections within those segments
also needs to be. Thus, we align individual instructions sections to
kMaxObjectAlignment, like readonly data sections, since both hold a
single Image object. This removes unnecessary intra-section padding.
TEST=Tests that check DWARF information and trybots that use ELF
snapshots.

but without renaming TARGET_OS_IPHONE to DART_TARGET_OS_IPHONE.
It also changes uses of TARGET_OS_IOS to
DART_TARGET_OS_MACOS_IOS to be consistent with the rest of the
VM.
TargetConditionals.h for XCode 13 defines several
TARGET_OS_* preprocessor symbols that confuse the
Dart build. There is probably a more targeted fix
for this, but renaming the symbols that Dart uses
will also prevent this problem if more symbols
are added to the platform headers in the future.

Since we've run out of room for more fields in the Image object header
on 64-bit architectures, the serializer instead creates an ImageHeader
object for precompiled snapshots that is placed at the start of text
segments. The new ImageHeader object contains the following information:
* The offset of the BSS segment from the text segment, previously
stored in the Image object header.
* The relocated address of the text segment in the dynamic shared
object. Due to restrictions when generating assembly snapshots, this
field is only set for ELF snapshots, and so it can also be used to
detect whether a snapshot was compiled to assembly or ELF.
* The offset of the build ID description field from the text segment.
* The length of the build ID description field.
We replace the BSS offset in the Image object header with the offset of
the ImageHeader object within the text segment, so that we can detect
when a given Image has an ImageHeader object available.
There are no methods available on ImageHeader objects, but instead the
Image itself controls access to the information. In particular, the
relocated address method either returns the relocated address
information from the ImageHeader object or from the initialized BSS
depending on the type of snapshot, so the caller need not do this work.
Also, instead of returning the raw offset to the BSS section and having
the caller turn that into an appropriate pointer, the method for
accessing the BSS segment now returns a pointer to the segment.

(Assignment of libraries to loading units is already done in the kernel generation step.)
After compiling and before serializing, we walk the program and for each Code we assign its Instructions, CodeSourceMap and CompressedStackMap to the loading unit of that Code's defining library. Deduplication may cause Instructions, CodeSourceMaps and CompressedStackMaps to belong to more than one loading unit; in this case the objects are assigned to the root loading unit. Later they can be more precisely assigned to the dominating loading unit.
All objects except some Instructions, CodeSourceMaps and CompressedStackMaps belong to the root loading unit's snapshot. This snapshot is written like an unsplit snapshot, except that when serializing Code, we will write a reference to a stub or null when the Code's Instructions, CodeSourceMap or CompressedStackMap belongs to a non-root loading unit. The snapshots of non-root loading units contain these deferred objects and references to the corresponding Code objects to patch. The types of objects we defer (Instructions, CodeSourceMaps and CompressedStackMaps) usually represent 70+% of the snapshot size.
Bare instructions mode must be disabled when splitting because we cannot have PC-relative calls between loading units. Later we can re-enable this for calls within loading units.
Broken: Compactor probably crashes we can now have an unbounded number of image pages and the compactor assumes a fixed number.
Embedder's guide:
At compile-time, gen_snapshot should be passed --loading_unit_manifest with a path, which will enable splitting and output a mapping from loading unit ids to snapshot output paths.
At runtime, sometime during isolate startup, an embedder should call Dart_SetDeferredLoadHandler, probably near an existing call to Dart_SetLibraryTagHandler. The callback is given a loading unit id, and should eventually call Dart_DeferredLoadComplete[Error].

The relocated addresses are populated during BSS::Initialize() for
natively loaded ELF snapshots, and during the non-native loader when it
is used. Putting this information in the BSS segment avoids having to
change the embedder interface, since we only need this information for
AOT snapshots. This also avoids depending on our ELF snapshot layout
to reverse-engineer the DSO base for ELF-compiled snapshots.
We now always print the DSO base for both the VM and isolate in
non-symbolic stack traces, not just for ELF-compiled snapshots. However,
we still only print the relocated addresses in individual stack frames
if we're guaranteed they match those in separately saved debugging
information.
