With this patch, the LowerGC transformation becomes the
...
ShadowStackCollector, which additionally has reduced overhead with
no sacrifice in portability.
Considering a function @fun with 8 loop-local roots,
ShadowStackCollector introduces the following overhead
(x86):
; shadowstack prologue
movl L_llvm_gc_root_chain$non_lazy_ptr, %eax
movl (%eax), %ecx
movl $___gc_fun, 20(%esp)
movl $0, 24(%esp)
movl $0, 28(%esp)
movl $0, 32(%esp)
movl $0, 36(%esp)
movl $0, 40(%esp)
movl $0, 44(%esp)
movl $0, 48(%esp)
movl $0, 52(%esp)
movl %ecx, 16(%esp)
leal 16(%esp), %ecx
movl %ecx, (%eax)
; shadowstack loop overhead
(none)
; shadowstack epilogue
movl 48(%esp), %edx
movl %edx, (%ecx)
; shadowstack metadata
.align 3
___gc_fun: # __gc_fun
.long 8
.space 4
In comparison to LowerGC:
; lowergc prologue
movl L_llvm_gc_root_chain$non_lazy_ptr, %eax
movl (%eax), %ecx
movl %ecx, 48(%esp)
movl $8, 52(%esp)
movl $0, 60(%esp)
movl $0, 56(%esp)
movl $0, 68(%esp)
movl $0, 64(%esp)
movl $0, 76(%esp)
movl $0, 72(%esp)
movl $0, 84(%esp)
movl $0, 80(%esp)
movl $0, 92(%esp)
movl $0, 88(%esp)
movl $0, 100(%esp)
movl $0, 96(%esp)
movl $0, 108(%esp)
movl $0, 104(%esp)
movl $0, 116(%esp)
movl $0, 112(%esp)
; lowergc loop overhead
leal 44(%esp), %eax
movl %eax, 56(%esp)
leal 40(%esp), %eax
movl %eax, 64(%esp)

movl %eax, 104(%esp)
