3f8d55c617 Remove --ld-path=* from _LDFLAGS
It makes no sense to pass --ld-path to direct ${LD} invocations.

This was missed in r366270 due to not doing a clean build.

2cef3afd7b Stop using -O instead of -O2 for MIPS
Until clang 11 that was equivalent to -O2, but clang changed it to -O1 so
generated MIPS code will now be unnecessarily slow. It also removes a weird
special case from sys.mk.
This is similar to the D26471 change for debug kernels and should not change
anything since everything was previously building MIPS code at -O2 until the
clang 11 update.

0e1e341b48 Stop using lorder and ranlib when building libraries
Use of ranlib or lorder is no longer necessary with current linkers
(probably anything newer than ~1990) and ar's ability to create an object
index and symbol table in the archive.
Currently the build system uses lorder+tsort to sort the .o files in
dependency order so that a single-pass linker can use them. However,
we can use the -s flag to ar to add an index to the .a file which makes
lorder unnecessary.
Running ar -s is equivalent to running ranlib afterwards, so we can also
skip the ranlib invocation.

Similarly, we don't have to pass the .o files for shared libraries in
dependency order since both ld.bfd and ld.lld will correctly resolve
references between the .o files.

This removes many fork()+execve calls for each library so should speed up
builds a bit. Additionally lorder.sh uses a regular expression that is not
supported by the macOS libc or glibc and results in many warnings when
cross-building (see D25989).

There is one functional change: lorder.sh removed duplicated .o files
from the linker command line which now no longer happens. I fixed the duplicates
in the base system in r364649. I also checked the ports tree for uses of
bsd.lib.mk and found one duplicate source file which I fixed in r548168.
Most ports use CMake/autotools rather than bsd.lib.mk but if this breaks any
ports that I missed in my search please let me know.

Avoiding the shell script actually speeds up the linking step noticeably: I
measured how long it takes to rebuild the .a and .so files for lib/libc using a
basic benchmark: `rm $LIBC_OBJDIR/*.so* $LIBC_OBJDIR/*.a* && /usr/bin/time make -DWITHOUT_TESTS -s > /dev/null`
Without this change ~4.5 seconds and afterwards ~3.1 seconds.
Looking at truss -cf output we can see that the number fork() system
calls goes down from 27 to 12 (and the speedup while tracing is more
noticeable: 81 seconds -> 65 seconds).

See also https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/tsort-background.html
for some more background:
This whole procedure has been obsolete since about 1980, because Unix
archives now contain a symbol table (traditionally built by ranlib, now
generally built by ar itself), and the Unix linker uses the symbol table
to effectively make multiple passes over an archive file.

Or alternatively https://www.unix.com/man-page/osf1/1/lorder/:
The lorder command is essentially obsolete.  Use the following command in
its place: % ar -ts file.a

1a18ab420b Allow overriding the tool used for stripping binaries
Since the make variable STRIP is already used for other purposes, this
uses STRIPBIN (which is also used for the same purpose by install(1).
This allows using LLVM objcopy to strip binaries instead of the in-tree
elftoolchain objcopy. We make use of this in CheriBSD since passing
binaries generated by our toolchain to elftoolchain strip sometimes results
in assertion failures.

This allows working around https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=248516

This can be disabled by putting WITHOUT_AUTO_OBJ=yes in /etc/src-env.conf, not
/etc/src.conf, or passing it in the environment.

The purpose of this rather than simply flipping the default of AUTO_OBJ to yes
is to avoid hassling users with auto.obj.mk failures if the wanted OBJDIR is
not writable. It will fallback to writing to the source directory like it does
today if MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX is not writable.

The act of enabling MK_AUTO_OBJ disables all 'make obj' treewalks since
previous work has made those not run if MK_AUTO_OBJ==yes in Makefile.inc1.

1a9cc831dd META_MODE: Add framework to force rebuilding for major ABI changes.
Normally META_MODE ignores host files for "meta mode" decisions on whether a
file should be rebuilt or not.  This is because a simple installworld can
update timestamps and cause the next build to rebuild all host tools, when the
previous ones may not have any changes in the source tree.  These tools are
normally still ABI compatible.  They are only rebuilt if NO_META_IGNORE_HOST is
set from the workaround/hack in r301467.

One of the major problems with this is when a host tool has objects spread
across many revisions that have mixed-ABI.  For example, if struct stat were to
change on the host, some objects for a tool may have different ideas of that
struct's definition.  If just 1 source file were modified and rebuilt and
linked into the tool, then that toll will have mixed-ABI objects and crash.
This exact thing happened with the ino64 commit in r301467 followed by a
trivial update to libbfd in r318750.  The resulting binary would crash in
buildworld.

ea22493a46 Explicitly set the desired MIPS ABI in toolchain flags.
Specifically, set '-mabi=XX' in AFLAGS, CFLAGS, and LDFLAGS.  This permits
building MIPS worlds and binaries with a toolchain whose default output
does not match the desired TARGET_ARCH.

_LDFLAGS (which is used with LD instead of with CC) required an update as
LD does not accept the -mabi flags (so they must be stripped from LDFLAGS
when generating _LDFLAGS).  For bare uses of LD (rather than linking via
CC), the desired ABI must be set by setting an explicit linker emulation
as done in r316514 for kernels and kernel modules.

dc9b124d66 Create a new MACHINE_ARCH for Freescale PowerPC e500v2
Summary:
The Freescale e500v2 PowerPC core does not use a standard FPU.
Instead, it uses a Signal Processing Engine (SPE)--a DSP-style vector processor
unit, which doubles as a FPU.  The PowerPC SPE ABI is incompatible with the
stock powerpc ABI, so a new MACHINE_ARCH was created to deal with this.
Additionaly, the SPE opcodes overlap with Altivec, so these are mutually
exclusive.  Taking advantage of this fact, a new file, powerpc/booke/spe.c, was
created with the same function set as in powerpc/powerpc/altivec.c, so it
becomes effectively a drop-in replacement.  setjmp/longjmp were modified to save
the upper 32-bits of the now-64-bit GPRs (upper 32-bits are only accessible by
the SPE).

Note: This does _not_ support the SPE in the e500v1, as the e500v1 SPE does not
support double-precision floating point.

Also, without a new MACHINE_ARCH it would be impossible to provide binary
packages which utilize the SPE.

Additionally, no work has been done to support ports, work is needed for this.
This also means no newer gcc can yet be used.  However, gcc's powerpc support
has been refactored which would make adding a powerpcspe-freebsd target very
easy.

Test Plan:
This was lightly tested on a RouterBoard RB800 and an AmigaOne A1222
(P1022-based) board, compiled against the new ABI.  Base system utilities
(/bin/sh, /bin/ls, etc) still function appropriately, the system is able to boot
multiuser.

c867306e60 Add make rules to build LLVM IR from C/C++ sources.
As a foundation for future work with LLVM's Intermediate Representation (IR),
add new suffix rules that can be used to build .llo (text) or .bco (bitcode)
files from C or C++ sources.  This compilation step uses the same CFLAGS, etc.,
as are used for building .o files, with the exception of optimization flags.
Many of the things we would like to do with IR (e.g., instrumentation) work
better with unoptimized code, so our approach is to build .c->.bco without
optimization and then apply the optimization in post-analysis,
post-instrumentation linking.

The overall result of these changes is:

* one can "make foo.llo" or "make foo.bco" wherever "make foo.o" was supported
* new make variables IR_CFLAGS and IR_CXXFLAGS are available to inspect the
  flags that are used by Clang to generate the IR

These new rules are added unconditionally to our non-POSIX suffix rule set,
since we cannot inspect COMPILER_TYPE in sys.mk.  Future changes that depend
on these rules (e.g., building IR versions of binaries from bsd.prog.mk)
should use COMPILER_TYPE to determine when we can expect IR rules to succeed.

Using -B already sets .MAKE.MODE=compat but it was leaving
MK_META_MODE set which could still cause other MK_META_MODE==yes
checks to trigger.

7f17cd1c8d WITH_META_MODE: Avoid host tool timestamps causing a rebuild.
Using buildworld, installworld, buildworld.  It is expected that nothing
should rebuild.  However any host tool used could have its timestamp
updated.  Any library used by dynamic tools could have its timestamp
updated.  The filemon(4) data in the .meta files captures all reads to
these files.  This causes the 2nd buildworld to rebuild everything since
host tools and files have been updated.

Because the build is self-reliant and bootstraps itself, it should be
safe to ignore mtime changes on host files used during the build.  Host
files should only impact the build of legacy, build-tools, bootstrap-tools,
cross-tools, but those are already intended to be reproducible from its
own bootstrapping.  It is possible in a rare case that a bug in a host
file does produce a broken build tool.  If that happens it will just
have to be communicated properly.

An alternative solution would be to update the mtime of all files in the
object directory after installworld so that the host files are not newer
than the object files.  That also requires special care for read-only
obj directories and special care to not mess with any intended timestamps in
the build, such as done for reproducibility.
