[compiler-rt] Rework profile data handling for GPU targets (#187136)
Summary:
Currently, the GPU iterates through all of the present symbols and
copies them by prefix. This is inefficient as it requires a lot of small
high-latency data transfers rather than a few large ones. Additionally,
we force every single profiling symbol to have protected visibility.
This means potentially hundreds of unnecessary symbols in the symbol
table.
This PR changes the interface to move towards the start / stop section
handling. AMDGPU supports this natively as an ELF target, so we need
little changes. Instead of overriding visibility, we use a single table
to define the bounds that we can obtain with one contiguous load.
Using a table interface should also work for the in-progress HIP
implementation for this, as it wraps the start / stop sections into
standard void pointers which will be inside of an already mapped region
of memory, so they should be accessible from the HIP API.
NVPTX is more difficult as it is an ELF platform without this support. I
have hooked up the 'Other' handling to work around this, but even then
it's a bit of a stretch. I could remove this support here, but I wanted
to demonstrate that we can share the ABI. However, NVPTX will only work
if we force LTO and change the backend to emit variables in the same
TL;DR, we now do this:
```c
struct { start1, stop1, start2, stop2, start3, stop3, version; } device;
struct host = DtoH(lookup("device"));
counters = DtoH(host.stop - host.start)
version = DtoH(host.version);
```
