This prints memory allocated by linker core data structures with a count of how many and total bytes used. This will be followed up by improvements to report virtual memory / resident memory size. Resolves #606 Signed-off-by: Shankar Easwaran <seaswara@qti.qualcomm.com>

Can we please return std::string_view / llvm::StringRef / const char * instead of std::string as these are more memory efficient?

I think we should try to use llvm::StringRef / std::string_view wherever we can as they avoid copying strings. What do you think about it?

Can we use one option std::optional<MemoryReportFile> instead of using two options PrintMemoryReport and MemoryReportFile?

What do you think about adding the below macro for make (and slightly modifying eld::make definition) and directly using the type name supplied by the macro user to initialize the TypeName property of SpecificAlloc? I believe this will make the design significantly more maintainable and scalable.
#define MAKE(Type, ...) \
eld::make<Type>(#Type, __VA_ARGS__);
template<typename T, typename... U> T *make(llvm::StringRef TypeName, U &&... Args) {
return ArenaForType<T>::create(TypeName, std::forward<T>(Args)...);
}Now ArenaForType can directly use TypeName to initialize SpecificAlloc.

i like this way better, though this will need every make(X) to be changed to make(T, X)

Even currently, all make calls are of the form: make<T>(X). We still have T in the make calls :).

Why can't we use macros to get these? Adding this to every single type feels needlessly complex and hard to scale.

Sure. I think that is much better. Let me explore

Do we need this extra complexity for mscv?

is this feature useful to anyone other than an eld developer?

Only eld developer.

I can make this option hidden if that is what you were hinting at.
