Summary: Before this patch, signal handling wasn't signal safe. This leads to real-world crashes. It used ManagedStatic inside of signals, this can allocate and can lead to unexpected state when a signal occurs during llvm_shutdown (because llvm_shutdown destroys the ManagedStatic). It also used cl::opt without custom backing storage. Some de-allocation was performed as well. Acquiring a lock in a signal handler is also a great way to deadlock. We can't just disable signals on llvm_shutdown because the signals might do useful work during that shutdown. We also can't just disable llvm_shutdown for programs (instead of library uses of clang) because we'd have to then mark the pointers as not leaked and make sure all the ManagedStatic uses are OK to leak and remain so. Move all of the code to lock-free datastructures instead, and avoid having any of them in an inconsistent state. I'm not trying to be fancy, I'm not using any explicit memory order because this code isn't hot. The only purpose of the atomics is to guarantee that a signal firing on the same or a different thread doesn't see an inconsistent state and crash. In some cases we might miss some state (for example, we might fail to delete a temporary file), but that's fine. Note that I haven't touched any of the backtrace support despite it not technically being totally signal-safe. When that code is called we know something bad is up and we don't expect to continue execution, so calling something that e.g. sets errno is the least of our problems. A similar patch should be applied to lib/Support/Windows/Signals.inc, but that can be done separately. Fix r332428 which I reverted in r332429. I originally used double-wide CAS because I was lazy, but some platforms use a runtime function for that which thankfully failed to link (it would have been bad for signal handlers otherwise). I use a separate flag to guard the data instead. <rdar://problem/28010281> Reviewers: dexonsmith Subscribers: steven_wu, llvm-commits llvm-svn: 332496
