Change writeFunctionMetadata to call writeMetadataRecords. For now
there's no functionality change, but makes it easy to serialize other
types of metadata in the function block in the future.
llvm-svn: 264557
To match writeMetadataRecords, writeNamedMetadata and
writeMetadataStrings, change:
WriteModuleMetadata => writeModuleMetadata
WriteFunctionLocalMetadata => writeFunctionMetadata
Write##CLASS => write##CLASS
The only major change is "FunctionLocal" => "Function". The point is to
be less specific, in preparation for emitting normal metadata records
inside function metadata blocks (currently we only emit
`LocalAsMetadata` there).
llvm-svn: 264556
We don't really need a separate vector here; instead, point at a range

Spiritually reapply commit r264409 (reverted in r264410), albeit with a
bit of a redesign.
Firstly, avoid splitting the big blob into multiple chunks of strings.
r264409 imposed an arbitrary limit to avoid a massive allocation on the
shared 'Record' SmallVector. The bug with that commit only reproduced
when there were more than "chunk-size" strings. A test for this would
have been useless long-term, since we're liable to adjust the chunk-size
in the future.
Thus, eliminate the motivation for chunk-ing by storing the string sizes
in the blob. Here's the layout:
vbr6: # of strings
vbr6: offset-to-blob
blob:
[vbr6]: string lengths
[char]: concatenated strings
Secondly, make the output of llvm-bcanalyzer readable.
I noticed when debugging r264409 that llvm-bcanalyzer was outputting a
massive blob all in one line. Past a small number, the strings were
impossible to split in my head, and the lines were way too long. This
version adds support in llvm-bcanalyzer for pretty-printing.
<STRINGS abbrevid=4 op0=3 op1=9/> num-strings = 3 {
'abc'
'def'
'ghi'
}
From the original commit:
Inspired by Mehdi's similar patch, http://reviews.llvm.org/D18342, this
should (a) slightly reduce bitcode size, since there is less record
overhead, and (b) greatly improve reading speed, since blobs are super
cheap to deserialize.
llvm-svn: 264551
Optimize output of MDStrings in bitcode. This emits them in big blocks
(currently 1024) in a pair of records:
- BULK_STRING_SIZES: the sizes of the strings in the block, and
- BULK_STRING_DATA: a single blob, which is the concatenation of all
the strings.
Inspired by Mehdi's similar patch, http://reviews.llvm.org/D18342, this
should (a) slightly reduce bitcode size, since there is less record
overhead, and (b) greatly improve reading speed, since blobs are super
cheap to deserialize.
I needed to add support for blobs to streaming input to get the test
suite passing.
- StreamingMemoryObject::getPointer reads ahead and returns the
address of the blob.
- To avoid a possible reallocation of StreamingMemoryObject::Bytes,
BitstreamCursor::readRecord needs to move the call to JumpToEnd
forward so that getPointer is the last bitstream operation.
llvm-svn: 264409
The motivation for MODULE_CODE_METADATA_VALUES was to enable an
-flto=thin scheme where:
1. First, one function is cherry-picked from a bitcode file.
2. Later, another function is cherry-picked.
3. Later, ...
4. Finally, the metadata needed by all the previous functions is
loaded.
This was abandoned in favour of:
1. Calculate the superset of functions needed from a Module.
2. Link all functions at once.
Delayed metadata reading no longer serves a purpose. It also adds
a few complication, since we can't count on metadata being properly
parsed when exiting the BitcodeReader. After discussing with Teresa, we
agreed to remove it.
The code that depended on this was removed/updated in r264326.

Simplify ValueEnumerator and WriteModuleMetadata by shifting the logic
for the METADATA_GENERIC_DEBUG abbreviation into WriteGenericDINode.
(This is just like r264302, but for GenericDINode.)

bitcode, just before the first `GenericDINode` record. This shouldn't
be observable though.
llvm-svn: 264303
Simplify ValueEnumerator and WriteModuleMetadata by shifting the logic
for the METADATA_LOCATION abbreviation into WriteDILocation.

Split writeNamedMetadata out of WriteModuleMetadata to write named
metadata, and createNamedMetadataAbbrev for the abbreviation.
There should be no effective functionality change, although the layout

the top of the block, but now it is delayed until immediately before the
named metadata records are emitted.

llvm-svn: 263377
Summary:
This patch adds support for including a full reference graph including
call graph edges and other GV references in the summary.
The reference graph edges can be used to make importing decisions
without materializing any source modules, can be used in the plugin
to make file staging decisions for distributed build systems, and is
expected to have other uses.
The call graph edges are recorded in each function summary in the
bitcode via a list of <CalleeValueIds, StaticCount> tuples when no PGO
data exists, or <CalleeValueId, StaticCount, ProfileCount> pairs when
there is PGO, where the ValueId can be mapped to the function GUID via
the ValueSymbolTable. In the function index in memory, the call graph
edges reference the target via the CalleeGUID instead of the
CalleeValueId.
The reference graph edges are recorded in each summary record with a
list of referenced value IDs, which can be mapped to value GUID via the
ValueSymbolTable.
Addtionally, a new summary record type is added to record references
from global variable initializers. A number of bitcode records and data
structures have been renamed to reflect the newly expanded scope of the
summary beyond functions. More cleanup will follow.

This restores commit r260408, along with a fix for a bot failure.
The bot failure was caused by dereferencing a unique_ptr in the same
call instruction parameter list where it was passed via std::move.
Apparently due to luck this was not exposed when I built the compiler
with clang, only with gcc.
llvm-svn: 260442
Summary:
This patch uses the lower 64-bits of the MD5 hash of a function name as
a GUID in the function index, instead of storing function names. Any
local functions are first given a global name by prepending the original
source file name. This is the same naming scheme and GUID used by PGO in
the indexed profile format.
This change has a couple of benefits. The primary benefit is size
reduction in the combined index file, for example 483.xalancbmk's
combined index file was reduced by around 70%. It should also result in
memory savings for the index file in memory, as the in-memory map is
also indexed by the hash instead of the string.
Second, this enables integration with indirect call promotion, since the
indirect call profile targets are recorded using the same global naming
convention and hash. This will enable the function importer to easily
locate function summaries for indirect call profile targets to enable
their import and subsequent promotion.
The original source file name is recorded in the bitcode in a new
module-level record for use in the ThinLTO backend pipeline.

This patch adds optional fast-math-flags (the same that apply to fmul/fadd/fsub/fdiv/frem/fcmp)
to call instructions in IR. Follow-up patches would use these flags in LibCallSimplifier, add
support to clang, and extend FMF to the DAG for calls.
Motivating example:
%y = fmul fast float %x, %x
%z = tail call float @sqrtf(float %y)
We'd like to be able to optimize sqrt(x*x) into fabs(x). We do this today using a function-wide
attribute for unsafe-math, but we really want to trigger on the instructions themselves:
%z = tail call fast float @sqrtf(float %y)
because in an LTO build it's possible that calls with fast semantics have been inlined into a
function with non-fast semantics.

While we have successfully implemented a funclet-oriented EH scheme on
top of LLVM IR, our scheme has some notable deficiencies:
- catchendpad and cleanupendpad are necessary in the current design
but they are difficult to explain to others, even to seasoned LLVM
experts.
- catchendpad and cleanupendpad are optimization barriers. They cannot
be split and force all potentially throwing call-sites to be invokes.
This has a noticable effect on the quality of our code generation.
- catchpad, while similar in some aspects to invoke, is fairly awkward.
It is unsplittable, starts a funclet, and has control flow to other
funclets.
- The nesting relationship between funclets is currently a property of
control flow edges. Because of this, we are forced to carefully
analyze the flow graph to see if there might potentially exist illegal
nesting among funclets. While we have logic to clone funclets when
they are illegally nested, it would be nicer if we had a
representation which forbade them upfront.
Let's clean this up a bit by doing the following:
- Instead, make catchpad more like cleanuppad and landingpad: no control
flow, just a bunch of simple operands; catchpad would be splittable.
- Introduce catchswitch, a control flow instruction designed to model
the constraints of funclet oriented EH.
- Make funclet scoping explicit by having funclet instructions consume
the token produced by the funclet which contains them.
- Remove catchendpad and cleanupendpad. Their presence can be inferred
implicitly using coloring information.
N.B. The state numbering code for the CLR has been updated but the
veracity of it's output cannot be spoken for. An expert should take a
look to make sure the results are reasonable.

Summary:
This is split out from the ThinLTO metadata mapping patch
http://reviews.llvm.org/D14752.
To avoid needing to parse the module level metadata during function
importing, a new module-level record is added which holds the
number of module-level metadata values. This is required because
metadata value ids are assigned implicitly during parsing, and the
function-level metadata ids start after the module-level metadata ids.
I made a change to this version of the code compared to D14752
in order to add more consistent and thorough assertion checking of the
new record value. We now unconditionally use the record value to
initialize the MDValueList size, and handle it the same in parseMetadata
for all module level metadata cases (lazy loading or not).

Summary:
There are currently two blocks with the METADATA_BLOCK id at module
scope. The first has the module-level metadata values (consisting of
some combination of METADATA_* record codes except for METADATA_KIND).
The second consists only of METADATA_KIND records. The latter is used
only in the METADATA_ATTACHMENT block within function blocks (for
metadata attached to instructions).
For ThinLTO we want to delay the parsing of module level metadata
until all functions have been imported from that module (there is some
bookkeeping used to suture it up when we read it during a post-pass).
However, we do need the METADATA_KIND records when parsing the function
body during importing, since those kinds are used as described above.
To simplify identification and parsing of just the block containing
the metadata kinds, use a different block id (METADATA_KIND_BLOCK_ID).
Support older bitcode without the new block id as well.

Previously, subprograms contained a metadata reference to the function they
described. Because most clients need to get or set a subprogram for a given
function rather than the other way around, this created unneeded inefficiency.
For example, many passes needed to call the function llvm::makeSubprogramMap()
to build a mapping from functions to subprograms, and the IR linker needed to
fix up function references in a way that caused quadratic complexity in the IR
linking phase of LTO.
This change reverses the direction of the edge by storing the subprogram as
function-level metadata and removing DISubprogram's function field.

The optional block also includes an "epoch" number, monotonically

Summary:
Add a `cleanupendpad` instruction, used to mark exceptional exits out of
cleanups (for languages/targets that can abort a cleanup with another
exception). The `cleanupendpad` instruction is similar to the `catchendpad`
instruction in that it is an EH pad which is the target of unwind edges in
the handler and which itself has an unwind edge to the next EH action.
The `cleanupendpad` instruction, similar to `cleanupret` has a `cleanuppad`
argument indicating which cleanup it exits. The unwind successors of a
`cleanuppad`'s `cleanupendpad`s must agree with each other and with its
`cleanupret`s.

Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D12433
llvm-svn: 246751
Summary:
WinEHPrepare is going to require that cleanuppad and catchpad produce values
of token type which are consumed by any cleanupret or catchret exiting the
pad. This change updates the signatures of those operators to require/enforce
that the type produced by the pads is token type and that the rets have an
appropriate argument.
The catchpad argument of a `CatchReturnInst` must be a `CatchPadInst` (and
similarly for `CleanupReturnInst`/`CleanupPadInst`). To accommodate that
restriction, this change adds a notion of an operator constraint to both
LLParser and BitcodeReader, allowing appropriate sentinels to be constructed
for forward references and appropriate error messages to be emitted for
illegal inputs.
Also add a verifier rule (noted in LangRef) that a catchpad with a catchpad
predecessor must have no other predecessors; this ensures that WinEHPrepare
will see the expected linear relationship between sibling catches on the
same try.
Lastly, remove some superfluous/vestigial casts from instruction operand
setters operating on BasicBlocks.

Some personality routines require funclet exit points to be clearly
marked, this is done by producing a token at the funclet pad and
consuming it at the corresponding ret instruction. CleanupReturnInst
already had a spot for this operand but CatchReturnInst did not.
Other personality routines don't need to use this which is why it has
been made optional.
llvm-svn: 245149
This introduces the basic functionality to support "token types".
The motivation stems from the need to perform operations on a Value
whose provenance cannot be obscured.
There are several applications for such a type but my immediate
motivation stems from WinEH. Our personality routine enforces a
single-entry - single-exit regime for cleanups. After several rounds of
optimizations, we may be left with a terminator whose "cleanup-entry
block" is not entirely clear because control flow has merged two
cleanups together. We have experimented with using labels as operands
inside of instructions which are not terminators to indicate where we
came from but found that LLVM does not expect such exotic uses of
BasicBlocks.
Instead, we can use this new type to clearly associate the "entry point"
and "exit point" of our cleanup. This is done by having the cleanuppad
yield a Token and consuming it at the cleanupret.
The token type makes it impossible to obscure or otherwise hide the
Value, making it trivial to track the relationship between the two
points.
What is the burden to the optimizer? Well, it turns out we have already
paid down this cost by accepting that there are certain calls that we
are not permitted to duplicate, optimizations have to watch out for
such instructions anyway. There are additional places in the optimizer
that we will probably have to update but early examination has given me
the impression that this will not be heroic.

Since r241097, `DIBuilder` has only created distinct `DICompileUnit`s.
The backend is liable to start relying on that (if it hasn't already),
so make uniquable `DICompileUnit`s illegal and automatically upgrade old
bitcode. This is a nice cleanup, since we can remove an unnecessary
`DenseSet` (and the associated uniquing info) from `LLVMContextImpl`.
Almost all the testcases were updated with this script:
git grep -e '= !DICompileUnit' -l -- test |
grep -v test/Bitcode |
xargs sed -i '' -e 's,= !DICompileUnit,= distinct !DICompileUnit,'
I imagine something similar should work for out-of-tree testcases.

Remove the fake `DW_TAG_auto_variable` and `DW_TAG_arg_variable` tags,
using `DW_TAG_variable` in their place Stop exposing the `tag:` field at
all in the assembly format for `DILocalVariable`.
Most of the testcase updates were generated by the following sed script:
find test/ -name "*.ll" -o -name "*.mir" |
xargs grep -l 'DILocalVariable' |
xargs sed -i '' \
-e 's/tag: DW_TAG_arg_variable, //' \
-e 's/tag: DW_TAG_auto_variable, //'
There were only a handful of tests in `test/Assembly` that I needed to
update by hand.
(Note: a follow-up could change `DILocalVariable::DILocalVariable()` to
set the tag to `DW_TAG_formal_parameter` instead of `DW_TAG_variable`
(as appropriate), instead of having that logic magically in the backend
in `DbgVariable`. I've added a FIXME to that effect.)

It is meant to be used to record modules @imported by the current
compile unit, so a debugger an import the same modules to replicate this
environment before dropping into the expression evaluator.
DIModule is a sibling to DINamespace and behaves quite similarly.
In addition to the name of the module it also records the module
configuration details that are necessary to uniquely identify the module.
This includes the configuration macros (e.g., -DNDEBUG), the include path
where the module.map file is to be found, and the isysroot.
The idea is that the backend will turn this into a DW_TAG_module.

The personality routine currently lives in the LandingPadInst.
This isn't desirable because:
- All LandingPadInsts in the same function must have the same
personality routine. This means that each LandingPadInst beyond the
first has an operand which produces no additional information.
- There is ongoing work to introduce EH IR constructs other than
LandingPadInst. Moving the personality routine off of any one
particular Instruction and onto the parent function seems a lot better
than have N different places a personality function can sneak onto an
exceptional function.

This patch adds the safe stack instrumentation pass to LLVM, which separates
the program stack into a safe stack, which stores return addresses, register
spills, and local variables that are statically verified to be accessed
in a safe way, and the unsafe stack, which stores everything else. Such
separation makes it much harder for an attacker to corrupt objects on the
safe stack, including function pointers stored in spilled registers and
return addresses. You can find more information about the safe stack, as
well as other parts of or control-flow hijack protection technique in our
OSDI paper on code-pointer integrity (http://dslab.epfl.ch/pubs/cpi.pdf)
and our project website (http://levee.epfl.ch).
The overhead of our implementation of the safe stack is very close to zero
(0.01% on the Phoronix benchmarks). This is lower than the overhead of
stack cookies, which are supported by LLVM and are commonly used today,
yet the security guarantees of the safe stack are strictly stronger than
stack cookies. In some cases, the safe stack improves performance due to
better cache locality.
Our current implementation of the safe stack is stable and robust, we
used it to recompile multiple projects on Linux including Chromium, and
we also recompiled the entire FreeBSD user-space system and more than 100
packages. We ran unit tests on the FreeBSD system and many of the packages
and observed no errors caused by the safe stack. The safe stack is also fully
binary compatible with non-instrumented code and can be applied to parts of
a program selectively.
This patch is our implementation of the safe stack on top of LLVM. The
patches make the following changes:
- Add the safestack function attribute, similar to the ssp, sspstrong and
sspreq attributes.
- Add the SafeStack instrumentation pass that applies the safe stack to all
functions that have the safestack attribute. This pass moves all unsafe local
variables to the unsafe stack with a separate stack pointer, whereas all
safe variables remain on the regular stack that is managed by LLVM as usual.
- Invoke the pass as the last stage before code generation (at the same time
the existing cookie-based stack protector pass is invoked).
- Add unit tests for the safe stack.

Lab at EPFL; updates and upstreaming by myself.

so DWARF skeleton CUs can be expression in IR. A skeleton CU is a
(typically empty) DW_TAG_compile_unit that has a DW_AT_(GNU)_dwo_name and
a DW_AT_(GNU)_dwo_id attribute. It is used to refer to external debug info.
This is a prerequisite for clang module debugging as discussed in
http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/cfe-dev/2014-November/040076.html.
In order to refer to external types stored in split DWARF (dwo) objects,
such as clang modules, we need to emit skeleton CUs, which identify the
dwarf object (i.e., the clang module) by filename (the SplitDebugFilename)
and a hash value, the dwo_id.
This patch only contains the IR changes. The idea is that a CUs with a
non-zero dwo_id field will be emitted together with a DW_AT_GNU_dwo_name
and DW_AT_GNU_dwo_id attribute.

Finish off PR23080 by renaming the debug info IR constructs from `MD*`
to `DI*`. The last of the `DIDescriptor` classes were deleted in
r235356, and the last of the related typedefs removed in r235413, so
this has all baked for about a week.
Note: If you have out-of-tree code (like a frontend), I recommend that
you get everything compiling and tests passing with the *previous*
commit before updating to this one. It'll be easier to keep track of
what code is using the `DIDescriptor` hierarchy and what you've already
updated, and I think you're extremely unlikely to insert bugs. YMMV of
course.
Back to *this* commit: I did this using the rename-md-di-nodes.sh
upgrade script I've attached to PR23080 (both code and testcases) and
filtered through clang-format-diff.py. I edited the tests for
test/Assembler/invalid-generic-debug-node-*.ll by hand since the columns
were off-by-three. It should work on your out-of-tree testcases (and

test/Assembler/invalid-mdcompositetype-missing-tag.ll should be
'dicompositetype'); I'll come back and move the files in a follow-up

As a space optimization, this instruction would just encode the pointer
type of the first operand and use the knowledge that the second and
third operands would be of the pointee type of the first. When typed
pointers go away, this assumption will no longer be available - so
encode the type of the second operand explicitly and rely on that for
the third.
Test case added to demonstrate the backwards compatibility concern,
which only comes up when the definition of the second operand comes
after the use (hence the weird basic block sequence) - at which point
the type needs to be explicitly encoded in the bitcode and the record
length changes to accommodate this.
llvm-svn: 235966
Use a few extra bits in the const field (after widening it from a fixed

Add serialization support for function metadata attachments (added in
r235783). The syntax is:
define @foo() !attach !0 {
Metadata attachments are only allowed on functions with bodies. Since
they come before the `{`, they're not really part of the body; since
they require a body, they're not really part of the header. In
`LLParser` I gave them a separate function called from `ParseDefine()`,
`ParseOptionalFunctionMetadata()`.
In bitcode, I'm using the same `METADATA_ATTACHMENT` record used by
instructions. Instruction metadata attachments are included in a
special "attachment" block at the end of a `Function`. The attachment
records are laid out like this:
InstID (KindID MetadataID)+
Note that these records always have an odd number of fields. The new
code takes advantage of this to recognize function attachments (which
don't need an instruction ID):
(KindID MetadataID)+
This means we can use the same attachment block already used for
instructions.
This is part of PR23340.

Summary:
If a pointer is marked as dereferenceable_or_null(N), LLVM assumes it
is either `null` or `dereferenceable(N)` or both. This change only
introduces the attribute and adds a token test case for the `llvm-as`
/ `llvm-dis`. It does not hook up other parts of the optimizer to
actually exploit the attribute -- those changes will come later.
For pointers in address space 0, `dereferenceable(N)` is now exactly
equivalent to `dereferenceable_or_null(N)` && `nonnull`. For other
address spaces, `dereferenceable(N)` is potentially weaker than
`dereferenceable_or_null(N)` && `nonnull` (since we could have a null
`dereferenceable(N)` pointer).
The motivating case for this change is Java (and other managed
languages), where pointers are either `null` or dereferenceable up to
some usually known-at-compile-time constant offset.

Remove 'inlinedAt:' from MDLocalVariable. Besides saving some memory
(variables with it seem to be single largest `Metadata` contributer to
memory usage right now in -g -flto builds), this stops optimization and
backend passes from having to change local variables.
The 'inlinedAt:' field was used by the backend in two ways:
1. To tell the backend whether and into what a variable was inlined.
2. To create a unique id for each inlined variable.
Instead, rely on the 'inlinedAt:' field of the intrinsic's `!dbg`
attachment, and change the DWARF backend to use a typedef called
`InlinedVariable` which is `std::pair<MDLocalVariable*, MDLocation*>`.
This `DebugLoc` is already passed reliably through the backend (as
verified by r234021).
This commit removes the check from r234021, but I added a new check
(that will survive) in r235048, and changed the `DIBuilder` API in
r235041 to require a `!dbg` attachment whose 'scope:` is in the same
`MDSubprogram` as the variable's.
If this breaks your out-of-tree testcases, perhaps the script I used
(mdlocalvariable-drop-inlinedat.sh) will help; I'll attach it to PR22778
in a moment.

minor functionality change to `libLTO`, in that you can't send in

understanding correct? Is there a way to create such an abbreviation? Should I

I've taken my best guess at this, but I've cargo culted in places & so

This seems to pass all the tests (check-all, covering clang and llvm) so I
believe that pretty well exercises both the backwards compatibility and common
(same version) compatibility given the number of checked in bitcode files we
already have. Is that a reasonable approach to testing here? Would some more
explicit tests be desired?
1) is this the right way to do back-compat in this case (looking at the number
of entries in the bitcode record to disambiguate between the old schema and
the new?)
2) I don't quite understand the logarithm logic to choose the encoding type of

When writing the bitcode serialization for the new debug info hierarchy,
I assumed two fields would never be null.
Drop that assumption, since it's brittle (and crashes the
`BitcodeWriter` if wrong), and is a check better left for the verifier
anyway. (No need for a bitcode upgrade here, since the new hierarchy is
still not in place.)
The fields in question are `MDCompileUnit::getFile()` and
`MDDerivedType::getBaseType()`, the latter of which isn't null in
test/Transforms/Mem2Reg/ConvertDebugInfo2.ll (see !14, a pointer to
nothing). While the testcase might have bitrotted, there's no reason
for the bitcode format to rely on non-null for metadata operands.
This also fixes a bug in `AsmWriter` where if the `file:` is null it
isn't emitted (caught by the double-round trip in the testcase I'm
adding) -- this is a required field in `LLParser`.
I'll circle back to ConvertDebugInfo2. Once the specialized nodes are
in place, I'll be trying to turn the debug info verifier back on by
default (in the newer module pass form committed r206300) and throwing
more logic in there. If the testcase has bitrotted (as opposed to me
not understanding the schema correctly) I'll fix it then.

Currently, no one actually calls `MDNode::getDistinct()`, so these nodes
only get created for:
- self-references, which are never uniqued, and
- nodes whose operands are replaced that hit a uniquing collision.
The concept of distinct nodes is still not quite first-class, since
distinct-ness doesn't yet survive across `MapMetadata()`.

units.
This was debated back and forth a bunch, but using references is now
clearly cleaner. Of all the code written using pointers thus far, in
only one place did it really make more sense to have a pointer. In most
cases, this just removes immediate dereferencing from the code. I think
it is much better to get errors on null IR units earlier, potentially
at compile time, than to delay it.
Most notably, the legacy pass manager uses references for its routines
and so as more and more code works with both, the use of pointers was
likely to become really annoying. I noticed this when I ported the
domtree analysis over and wrote the entire thing with references only to
have it fail to compile. =/ It seemed better to switch now than to
delay. We can, of course, revisit this is we learn that references are
really problematic in the API.

This reflects the typelessness of `Metadata` in the bitcode format,
removing types from all metadata operands.
`METADATA_VALUE` represents a `ValueAsMetadata`, and always has two
fields: the type and the value.
`METADATA_NODE` represents an `MDNode`, and unlike `METADATA_OLD_NODE`,
doesn't store types. It stores operands at their ID+1 so that `0` can
reference `nullptr` operands.

Split `Metadata` away from the `Value` class hierarchy, as part of
PR21532. Assembly and bitcode changes are in the wings, but this is the
bulk of the change for the IR C++ API.
I have a follow-up patch prepared for `clang`. If this breaks other
sub-projects, I apologize in advance :(. Help me compile it on Darwin
I'll try to fix it. FWIW, the errors should be easy to fix, so it may
be simpler to just fix it yourself.
This breaks the build for all metadata-related code that's out-of-tree.
Rest assured the transition is mechanical and the compiler should catch
almost all of the problems.
Here's a quick guide for updating your code:
- `Metadata` is the root of a class hierarchy with three main classes:
`MDNode`, `MDString`, and `ValueAsMetadata`. It is distinct from
the `Value` class hierarchy. It is typeless -- i.e., instances do
*not* have a `Type`.
- `MDNode`'s operands are all `Metadata *` (instead of `Value *`).
- `TrackingVH<MDNode>` and `WeakVH` referring to metadata can be
replaced with `TrackingMDNodeRef` and `TrackingMDRef`, respectively.
If you're referring solely to resolved `MDNode`s -- post graph
construction -- just use `MDNode*`.
- `MDNode` (and the rest of `Metadata`) have only limited support for
`replaceAllUsesWith()`.
As long as an `MDNode` is pointing at a forward declaration -- the
result of `MDNode::getTemporary()` -- it maintains a side map of its
uses and can RAUW itself. Once the forward declarations are fully
resolved RAUW support is dropped on the ground. This means that
uniquing collisions on changing operands cause nodes to become
"distinct". (This already happened fairly commonly, whenever an
operand went to null.)
If you're constructing complex (non self-reference) `MDNode` cycles,
you need to call `MDNode::resolveCycles()` on each node (or on a
top-level node that somehow references all of the nodes). Also,
don't do that. Metadata cycles (and the RAUW machinery needed to
construct them) are expensive.
- An `MDNode` can only refer to a `Constant` through a bridge called
`ConstantAsMetadata` (one of the subclasses of `ValueAsMetadata`).
As a side effect, accessing an operand of an `MDNode` that is known
to be, e.g., `ConstantInt`, takes three steps: first, cast from
`Metadata` to `ConstantAsMetadata`; second, extract the `Constant`;
third, cast down to `ConstantInt`.
The eventual goal is to introduce `MDInt`/`MDFloat`/etc. and have
metadata schema owners transition away from using `Constant`s when
the type isn't important (and they don't care about referring to
`GlobalValue`s).
In the meantime, I've added transitional API to the `mdconst`
namespace that matches semantics with the old code, in order to
avoid adding the error-prone three-step equivalent to every call
site. If your old code was:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(isa <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(cast <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(cast_or_null <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(dyn_cast <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(dyn_cast_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
you can trivially match its semantics with:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(mdconst::hasa <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(mdconst::extract <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(mdconst::extract_or_null <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(mdconst::dyn_extract <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(mdconst::dyn_extract_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
and when you transition your metadata schema to `MDInt`:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(isa <MDInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(cast <MDInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(cast_or_null <MDInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(dyn_cast <MDInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(dyn_cast_or_null<MDInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
- A `CallInst` -- specifically, intrinsic instructions -- can refer to
metadata through a bridge called `MetadataAsValue`. This is a
subclass of `Value` where `getType()->isMetadataTy()`.
`MetadataAsValue` is the *only* class that can legally refer to a
`LocalAsMetadata`, which is a bridged form of non-`Constant` values
like `Argument` and `Instruction`. It can also refer to any other
`Metadata` subclass.
(I'll break all your testcases in a follow-up commit, when I propagate
this change to assembly.)

Patch by Ben Gamari!
This redefines the `prefix` attribute introduced previously and
introduces a `prologue` attribute. There are a two primary usecases
that these attributes aim to serve,
1. Function prologue sigils
2. Function hot-patching: Enable the user to insert `nop` operations
at the beginning of the function which can later be safely replaced
with a call to some instrumentation facility
3. Runtime metadata: Allow a compiler to insert data for use by the
runtime during execution. GHC is one example of a compiler that
needs this functionality for its tables-next-to-code functionality.
Previously `prefix` served cases (1) and (2) quite well by allowing the user
to introduce arbitrary data at the entrypoint but before the function
body. Case (3), however, was poorly handled by this approach as it
required that prefix data was valid executable code.
Here we redefine the notion of prefix data to instead be data which
occurs immediately before the function entrypoint (i.e. the symbol
address). Since prefix data now occurs before the function entrypoint,
there is no need for the data to be valid code.
The previous notion of prefix data now goes under the name "prologue
data" to emphasize its duality with the function epilogue.
The intention here is to handle cases (1) and (2) with prologue data and
case (3) with prefix data.

This idea arose out of discussions[1] with Reid Kleckner in response to a
proposal to introduce the notion of symbol offsets to enable handling of
case (3).

Enumerate `MDNode`'s operands *before* the node itself, so that the
reader requires less RAUW. Although this will cause different code
paths to be hit in the reader, this should effectively be no
functionality change.

1. Use const with autos.
2. Don't bother with explicit const in cast ops because they do it automagically.
Thanks, David B. / Aaron B. / Reid K.

Take a StringRef instead of a "const char *".
Take a "std::error_code &" instead of a "std::string &" for error.
A create static method would be even better, but this patch is already a bit too
big.

Add header guards to files that were missing guards. Remove #endif comments
as they don't seem common in LLVM (we can easily add them back if we decide
they're useful)
Changes made by clang-tidy with minor tweaks.

Correctly sort self-users (such as PHI nodes). I added a targeted test
in `test/Bitcode/use-list-order.ll` and the final missing RUN line to
tests in `test/Assembly`.
This is part of PR5680.

Since initializers of GlobalValues are being assigned IDs before
GlobalValues themselves, explicitly exclude GlobalValues from the
constant pool. Added targeted test in `test/Bitcode/use-list-order.ll`
and added two more RUN lines in `test/Assembly`.
This is part of PR5680.

When predicting use-list order, we visit functions in reverse order
followed by `GlobalValue`s and write out use-lists at the first
opportunity. In the reader, this will translate to *after* the last use
has been added.
For this to work, we actually need to descend into `GlobalValue`s.
Added a targeted test in `use-list-order.ll` and `RUN` lines to the
newly passing tests in `test/Bitcode`.
There are two remaining failures in `test/Bitcode`:
- blockaddress.ll: I haven't thought through how to model the way
block addresses change the order of use-lists (or how to work around
it).
- metadata-2.ll: There's an old-style `@llvm.used` global array here
that I suspect the .ll parser isn't upgrading properly. When it
round-trips through bitcode, the .bc reader *does* upgrade it, so
the extra variable (`i8* null`) has an extra use, and the shuffle
vector doesn't match.
I think the fix is to upgrade old-style global arrays (or reject
them?) in the .ll parser.
This is part of PR5680.

This commit fixes undefined behaviour that caused the revert in r214249.
The problem was two unsequenced operations on a `DenseMap<>`, giving
different behaviour in GCC and Clang. This:
DenseMap<T*, unsigned> DM;
for (auto &X : ...)
DM[&X] = DM.size() + 1;
should have been:
DenseMap<T*, unsigned> DM;
for (auto &X : ...) {
unsigned Size = DM.size();
DM[&X] = Size + 1;
}
Until r214242, this difference between compilers didn't matter. In
r214242, `OrderMap::LastGlobalValueID` was introduced and compared
against IDs, which in GCC were off-by-one my expectations.
llvm-svn: 214270
To avoid unnecessary forward references, the reader doesn't process
initializers of `GlobalValue`s until after the constant pool has been
processed, and then in reverse order. Model this when predicting
use-list order. This gets two more Bitcode tests passing with
`llvm-uselistorder`.
Part of PR5680.
