Reapply "[BOLT][AArch64] Handle OpNegateRAState to enable optimizing
binaries with pac-ret hardening (#120064)" (#162353)
This reverts commit c7d776b06897567e2d698e447d80279664b67d47.
#120064 was reverted for breaking builders.
Fix: changed the mismatched type in MarkRAStates.cpp to `auto`.
---
Original message:
OpNegateRAState is an AArch64-specific DWARF CFI used to change the value
of the RA_SIGN_STATE pseudoregister. The RA_SIGN_STATE register records
whether the current return address has been signed with PAC.
OpNegateRAState requires special handling in BOLT because its placement
depends on the function layout. Since BOLT reorders basic blocks during
optimization, these CFIs must be regenerated after layout is finalized.
This patch introduces two new passes:
- MarkRAStates (runs before optimizations): assigns a signedness annotation to each
instruction based on OpNegateRAState CFIs in the input binary.
- InsertNegateRAStates (runs after optimizations): reads the annotations and emits
new OpNegateRAState CFIs where RA state changes between instructions.
Design details are described in: `bolt/docs/PacRetDesign.md`.
