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.

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.

[ELF] - Fixed incorrect logic of version assignments when mixing wildcards with values matching. Previously we had incorrect logic here. Imagine we would have the next script: LIBSAMPLE_1.0 { global: a_2; local: *; }; LIBSAMPLE_2.0 { global: a*; }; According to previous logic it would assign version 1 to a_2 and then would try to reassign it to version 2 because of applying wildcard a*. And show a warning about that. Generally Ian Lance Tailor wrote about next rules that should be applied: (http://www.airs.com/blog/archives/300) Here are the current rules for gold: "If there is an exact match for the mangled name, we use it. If there is more than one exact match, we give a warning, and we use the first tag in the script which matches. If a symbol has an exact match as both global and local for the same version tag, we give an error. Otherwise, we look for an extern C++ or an extern Java exact match. If we find an exact match, we use it. If there is more than one exact match, we give a warning, and we use the first tag in the script which matches. If a symbol has an exact match as both global and local for the same version tag, we give an error. Otherwise, we look through the wildcard patterns, ignoring “*” patterns. We look through the version tags in reverse order. For each version tag, we look through the global patterns and then the local patterns. We use the first match we find (i.e., the last matching version tag in the file). Otherwise, we use the “*” pattern if there is one. We give a warning if there are multiple “*” patterns." Patch makes wildcard matching to be in revered order and to follow after the regular naming matching. Differential revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D21894 llvm-svn: 274739

[ELF] - Fixed incorrect logic of version assignments when mixing wildcards with values matching. Previously we had incorrect logic here. Imagine we would have the next script: LIBSAMPLE_1.0 { global: a_2; local: *; }; LIBSAMPLE_2.0 { global: a*; }; According to previous logic it would assign version 1 to a_2 and then would try to reassign it to version 2 because of applying wildcard a*.
