ELF: New symbol table design. This patch implements a new design for the symbol table that stores SymbolBodies within a memory region of the Symbol object. Symbols are mutated by constructing SymbolBodies in place over existing SymbolBodies, rather than by mutating pointers. As mentioned in the initial proposal [1], this memory layout helps reduce the cache miss rate by improving memory locality. Performance numbers: old(s) new(s) Without debug info: chrome 7.178 6.432 (-11.5%) LLVMgold.so 0.505 0.502 (-0.5%) clang 0.954 0.827 (-15.4%) llvm-as 0.052 0.045 (-15.5%) With debug info: scylla 5.695 5.613 (-1.5%) clang 14.396 14.143 (-1.8%) Performance counter results show that the fewer required indirections is indeed the cause of the improved performance. For example, when linking chrome, stalled cycles decreases from 14,556,444,002 to 12,959,238,310, and instructions per cycle increases from 0.78 to 0.83. We are also executing many fewer instructions (15,516,401,933 down to 15,002,434,310), probably because we spend less time allocating SymbolBodies. The new mechanism by which symbols are added to the symbol table is by calling add* functions on the SymbolTable. In this patch, I handle local symbols by storing them inside "unparented" SymbolBodies. This is suboptimal, but if we do want to try to avoid allocating these SymbolBodies, we can probably do that separately. I also removed a few members from the SymbolBody class that were only being used to pass information from the input file to the symbol table. This patch implements the new design for the ELF linker only. I intend to prepare a similar patch for the COFF linker.

ELF: New symbol table design. This patch implements a new design for the symbol table that stores SymbolBodies within a memory region of the Symbol object. Symbols are mutated by constructing SymbolBodies in place over existing SymbolBodies, rather than by mutating pointers. As mentioned in the initial proposal [1], this memory layout helps reduce the cache miss rate by improving memory locality. Performance numbers: old(s) new(s) Without debug info: chrome 7.178 6.432 (-11.5%) LLVMgold.so 0.505 0.502 (-0.5%) clang 0.954 0.827 (-15.4%) llvm-as 0.052 0.045 (-15.5%) With debug info: scylla 5.695 5.613 (-1.5%) clang 14.396 14.143 (-1.8%) Performance counter results show that the fewer required indirections is indeed the cause of the improved performance. For example, when linking chrome, stalled cycles decreases from 14,556,444,002 to 12,959,238,310, and instructions per cycle increases from 0.78 to 0.83. We are also executing many fewer instructions (15,516,401,933 down to 15,002,434,310), probably because we spend less time allocating SymbolBodies. The new mechanism by which symbols are added to the symbol table is by calling add* functions on the SymbolTable. In this patch, I handle local symbols by storing them inside "unparented" SymbolBodies. This is suboptimal, but if we do want to try to avoid allocating these SymbolBodies, we can probably do that separately. I also removed a few members from the SymbolBody class that were only being used to pass information from the input file to the symbol table. This patch implements the new design for the ELF linker only. I intend to prepare a similar patch for the COFF linker.

Avoid doing binary search. MergedInputSection::getOffset is the busiest function in LLD if string merging is enabled and input files have lots of mergeable sections. It is usually the case when creating executable with debug info, so it is pretty common. The reason why it is slow is because it has to do faily complex computations. For non-mergeable sections, section contents are contiguous in output, so in order to compute an output offset, we only have to add the output section's base address to an input offset. But for mergeable strings, section contents are split for merging, so they are not contigous. We've got to do some lookups. We used to do binary search on the list of section pieces. It is slow because I think it's hostile to branch prediction. This patch replaces it with hash table lookup. Seems it's working pretty well. Below is "perf stat -r10" output when linking clang with debug info. In this case this patch speeds up about 4%.

ELF: New symbol table design. This patch implements a new design for the symbol table that stores SymbolBodies within a memory region of the Symbol object. Symbols are mutated by constructing SymbolBodies in place over existing SymbolBodies, rather than by mutating pointers. As mentioned in the initial proposal [1], this memory layout helps reduce the cache miss rate by improving memory locality. Performance numbers: old(s) new(s) Without debug info: chrome 7.178 6.432 (-11.5%) LLVMgold.so 0.505 0.502 (-0.5%) clang 0.954 0.827 (-15.4%) llvm-as 0.052 0.045 (-15.5%) With debug info: scylla 5.695 5.613 (-1.5%) clang 14.396 14.143 (-1.8%) Performance counter results show that the fewer required indirections is indeed the cause of the improved performance. For example, when linking chrome, stalled cycles decreases from 14,556,444,002 to 12,959,238,310, and instructions per cycle increases from 0.78 to 0.83. We are also executing many fewer instructions (15,516,401,933 down to 15,002,434,310), probably because we spend less time allocating SymbolBodies. The new mechanism by which symbols are added to the symbol table is by calling add* functions on the SymbolTable. In this patch, I handle local symbols by storing them inside "unparented" SymbolBodies. This is suboptimal, but if we do want to try to avoid allocating these SymbolBodies, we can probably do that separately. I also removed a few members from the SymbolBody class that were only being used to pass information from the input file to the symbol table. This patch implements the new design for the ELF linker only. I intend to prepare a similar patch for the COFF linker.
