explicitly emitting retainRV or claimRV calls in the IR
This reapplies ed4718eccb, which was reverted
because it was causing a miscompile. The bug that was causing the miscompile
has been fixed in 75805dce5f.
Original commit message:
Background:
This fixes a longstanding problem where llvm breaks ARC's autorelease
optimization (see the link below) by separating calls from the marker
instructions or retainRV/claimRV calls. The backend changes are in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D92569.
https://clang.llvm.org/docs/AutomaticReferenceCounting.html#arc-runtime-objc-autoreleasereturnvalue
What this patch does to fix the problem:
- The front-end adds operand bundle "clang.arc.attachedcall" to calls,
which indicates the call is implicitly followed by a marker
instruction and an implicit retainRV/claimRV call that consumes the
call result. In addition, it emits a call to
@llvm.objc.clang.arc.noop.use, which consumes the call result, to
prevent the middle-end passes from changing the return type of the
called function. This is currently done only when the target is arm64
and the optimization level is higher than -O0.
- ARC optimizer temporarily emits retainRV/claimRV calls after the calls
with the operand bundle in the IR and removes the inserted calls after
processing the function.
- ARC contract pass emits retainRV/claimRV calls after the call with the
operand bundle. It doesn't remove the operand bundle on the call since
the backend needs it to emit the marker instruction. The retainRV and
claimRV calls are emitted late in the pipeline to prevent optimization
passes from transforming the IR in a way that makes it harder for the
ARC middle-end passes to figure out the def-use relationship between
the call and the retainRV/claimRV calls (which is the cause of
PR31925).
- The function inliner removes an autoreleaseRV call in the callee if
nothing in the callee prevents it from being paired up with the
retainRV/claimRV call in the caller. It then inserts a release call if
claimRV is attached to the call since autoreleaseRV+claimRV is
equivalent to a release. If it cannot find an autoreleaseRV call, it
tries to transfer the operand bundle to a function call in the callee.
This is important since the ARC optimizer can remove the autoreleaseRV
returning the callee result, which makes it impossible to pair it up
with the retainRV/claimRV call in the caller. If that fails, it simply
emits a retain call in the IR if retainRV is attached to the call and
does nothing if claimRV is attached to it.
- SCCP refrains from replacing the return value of a call with a
constant value if the call has the operand bundle. This ensures the
call always has at least one user (the call to
@llvm.objc.clang.arc.noop.use).
- This patch also fixes a bug in replaceUsesOfNonProtoConstant where
multiple operand bundles of the same kind were being added to a call.
Future work:
- Use the operand bundle on x86-64.
- Fix the auto upgrader to convert call+retainRV/claimRV pairs into
calls with the operand bundles.

https://reviews.llvm.org/D92569.
https://clang.llvm.org/docs/AutomaticReferenceCounting.html#arc-runtime-objc-autoreleasereturnvalue
What this patch does to fix the problem:
- The front-end annotates calls with attribute "clang.arc.rv"="retain"
or "clang.arc.rv"="claim", which indicates the call is implicitly
followed by a marker instruction and a retainRV/claimRV call that
consumes the call result. This is currently done only when the target
is arm64 and the optimization level is higher than -O0.
- ARC optimizer temporarily emits retainRV/claimRV calls after the
annotated calls in the IR and removes the inserted calls after
processing the function.
- ARC contract pass emits retainRV/claimRV calls after the annotated
calls. It doesn't remove the attribute on the call since the backend
needs it to emit the marker instruction. The retainRV/claimRV calls
are emitted late in the pipeline to prevent optimization passes from
transforming the IR in a way that makes it harder for the ARC
middle-end passes to figure out the def-use relationship between the
call and the retainRV/claimRV calls (which is the cause of PR31925).
- The function inliner removes the autoreleaseRV call in the callee that
returns the result if nothing in the callee prevents it from being
paired up with the calls annotated with "clang.arc.rv"="retain/claim"
in the caller. If the call is annotated with "claim", a release call
is inserted since autoreleaseRV+claimRV is equivalent to a release. If
it cannot find an autoreleaseRV call, it tries to transfer the
attributes to a function call in the callee. This is important since
ARC optimizer can remove the autoreleaseRV call returning the callee
result, which makes it impossible to pair it up with the retainRV or
claimRV call in the caller. If that fails, it simply emits a retain
call in the IR if the call is annotated with "retain" and does nothing
if it's annotated with "claim".
- This patch teaches dead argument elimination pass not to change the
return type of a function if any of the calls to the function are
annotated with attribute "clang.arc.rv". This is necessary since the
pass can incorrectly determine nothing in the IR uses the function
return, which can happen since the front-end no longer explicitly
emits retainRV/claimRV calls in the IR, and change its return type to
'void'.
Future work:
- Use the attribute on x86-64.
- Fix the auto upgrader to convert call+retainRV/claimRV pairs into

D70365 allows us to make attributes default. This is a follow up to

instruction can decrement the reference count, not whether it can alter
it
This prevents the state transition from S_Use to S_CanRelease when doing
a bottom-up traversal and the transition from S_Retain to S_CanRelease
when doing a top-down traversal when the visited instruction can
increment the ref count but cannot decrement it. This allows the ARC
optimizer to remove retain/release pairs which were previously not
removed.

Pair up inlined AutoreleaseRV calls with their matching RetainRV or
ClaimRV.
- RetainRV cancels out AutoreleaseRV. Delete both instructions.
- ClaimRV is a peephole for RetainRV+Release. Delete AutoreleaseRV and
replace ClaimRV with Release.
This avoids problems where more aggressive inlining triggers memory
regressions.
This patch is happy to skip over non-callable instructions and non-ARC
intrinsics looking for the pair. It is likely sound to also skip over
opaque function calls, but that's harder to reason about, and it's not
relevant to the goal here: if there's an opaque function call splitting
up a pair, it's very unlikely that a handshake would have happened
dynamically without inlining.
Note that this patch also subsumes the previous logic that looked

When eliminating a pair of

Other than bitcasts and useless GEPs, it's also safe to ignore lifetime
markers for both static allocas (lifetime.start/lifetime.end) and dynamic
allocas (stacksave/stackrestore).
These get added by the inliner as part of the return sequence and can
prevent the transformation from happening in practice.

DominatorTree::dominate.
ARC contract pass has an optimization that replaces the uses of the
argument of an ObjC runtime function call with the call result.
For example:
; Before optimization
%1 = tail call i8* @foo1()
%2 = tail call i8* @llvm.objc.retainAutoreleasedReturnValue(i8* %1)
store i8* %1, i8** @g0, align 8
; After optimization
%1 = tail call i8* @foo1()
%2 = tail call i8* @llvm.objc.retainAutoreleasedReturnValue(i8* %1)
store i8* %2, i8** @g0, align 8 // %1 is replaced with %2
Before replacing the argument use, DominatorTree::dominate is called to
determine whether the user instruction is dominated by the ObjC runtime
function call instruction. The call to DominatorTree::dominate can be
expensive if the two instructions belong to the same basic block and the
size of the basic block is large. This patch checks the basic block size
and just bails out if the size exceeds the limit set by command line
option "arc-contract-max-bb-size".

In order to set breakpoints on labels and list source code around
labels, we need collect debug information for labels, i.e., label
name, the function label belong, line number in the file, and the
address label located. In order to keep these information in LLVM
IR and to allow backend to generate debug information correctly.
We create a new kind of metadata for labels, DILabel. The format
of DILabel is
!DILabel(scope: !1, name: "foo", file: !2, line: 3)
We hope to keep debug information as much as possible even the
code is optimized. So, we create a new kind of intrinsic for label
metadata to avoid the metadata is eliminated with basic block.
The intrinsic will keep existing if we keep it from optimized out.
The format of the intrinsic is
llvm.dbg.label(metadata !1)
It has only one argument, that is the DILabel metadata. The
intrinsic will follow the label immediately. Backend could get the
label metadata through the intrinsic's parameter.
We also create DIBuilder API for labels to be used by Frontend.
Frontend could use createLabel() to allocate DILabel objects, and use
insertLabel() to insert llvm.dbg.label intrinsic in LLVM IR.

A catchswitch is both a pad and a terminator, meaning it must be the
only non-phi instruction in its basic block. When we're inserting a
bitcast in the incoming basic block for a phi, if that incoming block is
a catchswitch, we should go up the dominator tree to find a valid
insertion point rather than attempting to insert before the catchswitch
(which would result in invalid IR).
