Summary:
Based on two patches by Michael Mueller.
This is a target attribute that causes a function marked with it to be
emitted as "hotpatchable". This particular mechanism was originally
devised by Microsoft for patching their binaries (which they are
constantly updating to stay ahead of crackers, script kiddies, and other
ne'er-do-wells on the Internet), but is now commonly abused by Windows
programs to hook API functions.
This mechanism is target-specific. For x86, a two-byte no-op instruction
is emitted at the function's entry point; the entry point must be
immediately preceded by 64 (32-bit) or 128 (64-bit) bytes of padding.
This padding is where the patch code is written. The two byte no-op is
then overwritten with a short jump into this code. The no-op is usually
a `movl %edi, %edi` instruction; this is used as a magic value
indicating that this is a hotpatchable function.

Summary:
Currently, the Scudo Hardened Allocator only gets its flags via the SCUDO_OPTIONS environment variable.
With this patch, we offer the opportunity for programs to define their own options via __scudo_default_options() which behaves like __asan_default_options() (weak symbol).
A relevant test has been added as well, and the documentation updated accordingly.
I also used this patch as an opportunity to rename a few variables to comply with the LLVM naming scheme, and replaced a use of Report with dieWithMessage for consistency (and to avoid a callback).

This patch replaces RuntimeDyld::SymbolInfo with JITSymbol: A symbol class
that is capable of lazy materialization (i.e. the symbol definition needn't be
emitted until the address is requested). This can be used to support common
and weak symbols in the JIT (though this is not implemented in this patch).
For consistency, RuntimeDyld::SymbolResolver is renamed to JITSymbolResolver.
For space efficiency a new class, JITEvaluatedSymbol, is introduced that
behaves like the old RuntimeDyld::SymbolInfo - i.e. it is just a pair of an
address and symbol flags. Instances of JITEvaluatedSymbol can be used in
symbol-tables to avoid paying the space cost of the materializer.

Lots of blocks had "llvm" or "nasm" syntax types but either weren't following
the syntax, or the syntax has changed (and sphinx hasn't keep up) or the type
doesn't even exist (nasm?).
Other documents had :options: what were invalid. I only removed those that had
warnings, and left the ones that didn't, in order to follow the principle of
least surprise.
This is like this for ages, but the buildbot is now failing on errors. It may
take a while to upgrade the buildbot's sphinx, if that's even possible, but
that shouldn't stop us from getting docs updates (which seem down for quite
a while).
Also, we're not losing any syntax highlight, since when it doesn't parse, it
doesn't colour. Ie. those blocks are not being highlighted anyway.

Git solution, nor if Git is better than any other VCS, nor if GitHub is better
than any other free code hosting service. This is just the final conclusions of
48 days and 320 emails (plus a lot of IRC discussions) on the LLVM community.
This document will be presented at the survey that the foundation will setup for

This intrinsic safely loads a function pointer from a virtual table pointer
using type metadata. This intrinsic is used to implement control flow integrity
in conjunction with virtual call optimization. The virtual call optimization
pass will optimize away llvm.type.checked.load intrinsics associated with
devirtualized calls, thereby removing the type check in cases where it is
not needed to enforce the control flow integrity constraint.
This patch also introduces the capability to copy type metadata between
global variables, and teaches the virtual call optimization pass to do so.
Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D21121

The bitset metadata currently used in LLVM has a few problems:
1. It has the wrong name. The name "bitset" refers to an implementation
detail of one use of the metadata (i.e. its original use case, CFI).
This makes it harder to understand, as the name makes no sense in the
context of virtual call optimization.
2. It is represented using a global named metadata node, rather than
being directly associated with a global. This makes it harder to
manipulate the metadata when rebuilding global variables, summarise it
as part of ThinLTO and drop unused metadata when associated globals are
dropped. For this reason, CFI does not currently work correctly when
both CFI and vcall opt are enabled, as vcall opt needs to rebuild vtable
globals, and fails to associate metadata with the rebuilt globals. As I
understand it, the same problem could also affect ASan, which rebuilds
globals with a red zone.
This patch solves both of those problems in the following way:
1. Rename the metadata to "type metadata". This new name reflects how
the metadata is currently being used (i.e. to represent type information
for CFI and vtable opt). The new name is reflected in the name for the
associated intrinsic (llvm.type.test) and pass (LowerTypeTests).
2. Attach metadata directly to the globals that it pertains to, rather
than using the "llvm.bitsets" global metadata node as we are doing now.
This is done using the newly introduced capability to attach
metadata to global variables (r271348 and r271358).

This change is motivated by an upcoming change to the metadata representation
used for CFI. The indirect function call checker needs type information for
external function declarations in order to correctly generate jump table
entries for such declarations. We currently associate such type information
with declarations using a global metadata node, but I plan [1] to move all
such metadata to global object attachments.
In bitcode, metadata attachments for function declarations appear in the
global metadata block. This seems reasonable to me because I expect metadata
attachments on declarations to be uncommon. In the long term I'd also expect
this to be the case for CFI, because we'd want to use some specialized bitcode
format for this metadata that could be read as part of the ThinLTO thin-link
phase, which would mean that it would not appear in the global metadata block.
To solve the lazy loaded metadata issue I was seeing with D20147, I use the
same bitcode representation for metadata attachments for global variables as I
do for function declarations. Since there's a use case for metadata attachments
in the global metadata block, we might as well use that representation for
global variables as well, at least until we have a mechanism for lazy loading
global variables.
In the assembly format, the metadata attachments appear after the "declare"
keyword in order to avoid a parsing ambiguity.

If a local_unnamed_addr attribute is attached to a global, the address
is known to be insignificant within the module. It is distinct from the
existing unnamed_addr attribute in that it only describes a local property
of the module rather than a global property of the symbol.
This attribute is intended to be used by the code generator and LTO to allow
the linker to decide whether the global needs to be in the symbol table. It is
possible to exclude a global from the symbol table if three things are true:
- This attribute is present on every instance of the global (which means that
the normal rule that the global must have a unique address can be broken without
being observable by the program by performing comparisons against the global's
address)
- The global has linkonce_odr linkage (which means that each linkage unit must have
its own copy of the global if it requires one, and the copy in each linkage unit
must be the same)
- It is a constant or a function (which means that the program cannot observe that
the unique-address rule has been broken by writing to the global)
Although this attribute could in principle be computed from the module
contents, LTO clients (i.e. linkers) will normally need to be able to compute
this property as part of symbol resolution, and it would be inefficient to
materialize every module just to compute it.

- additional consistency checks on the allocation function parameters and on the heap chunks;
- use of checksum protected chunk header, to detect corruption;
- randomness to the allocator base;
- delayed freelist (quarantine), to mitigate use after free and overall determinism.
Additional mitigations are in the works.

In practice only a few well known appending linkage variables work.
Currently if codegen sees an unknown appending linkage variable it will
just print it as a regular global. That is wrong as the symbol in the
produced object file has different semantics as the one provided by the
appending linkage.
This just errors early instead of producing a broken .o.

This new verifier rule lets us unambigously pick a calling convention
when creating a new declaration for
`@llvm.experimental.deoptimize.<ty>`. It is also congruent with our
lowering strategy -- since all calls to `@llvm.experimental.deoptimize`
are lowered to calls to `__llvm_deoptimize`, it is reasonable to enforce
a unique calling convention.
Some of the tests that were breaking this verifier rule have had to be
split up into different .ll files.
The inliner was violating this rule as well, and has been fixed to avoid
producing invalid IR.
llvm-svn: 269261
An oddity of the .ll syntax is that the "@var = " in
@var = global i32 42
is optional. Writing just
global i32 42
is equivalent to
@0 = global i32 42
This means that there is a pretty big First set at the top level. The
current implementation maintains it manually. I was trying to refactor
it, but then started wondering why keep it a all. I personally find the
above syntax confusing. It looks like something is missing.
This patch removes the feature and simplifies the parser.

HowToCrossCompile was outdated and generating too much traffic on the mailing
list with similar queries. This change helps offset most of the problems that
were reported recently including:
* Removing the -ccc-gcc-name, adding --sysroot
* Making references to Debian's multiarch for target libraries
* Expanding -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS for both GCC and Clang
* Some formatting and clarifications in the text

This is a step towards removing the rampant undefined behaviour in
SelectionDAG, which is a part of llvm.org/PR26808.
We rename SelectionDAGISel::Select to SelectImpl and update targets to
match, and then change Select to return void and consolidate the
sketchy behaviour we're trying to get away from there.
Next, we'll update backends to implement `void Select(...)` instead of
SelectImpl and eventually drop the base Select implementation.

This backend was supposed to generate C++ code which will re-construct
the LLVM IR passed as input. This seems to me to have very marginal
usefulness in the first place.
However, the code has never been updated to use IRBuilder, which makes
its current value negative -- people who look at the output may be
steered to use the *wrong* C++ APIs to construct IR.
Furthermore, it's generated code that doesn't compile since at least
2013.

If a guard call being lowered by LowerGuardIntrinsics has the
`!make.implicit` metadata attached, then reattach the metadata to the
branch in the resulting expanded form of the intrinsic. This allows us
to implement null checks as guards and still get the benefit of implicit
null checks.

Summary:
D19403 adds a new pragma for loop distribution. This change adds
support for the corresponding metadata that the pragma is translated to
by the FE.
As part of this I had to rethink the flag -enable-loop-distribute. My
goal was to be backward compatible with the existing behavior:
A1. pass is off by default from the optimization pipeline
unless -enable-loop-distribute is specified
A2. pass is on when invoked directly from opt (e.g. for unit-testing)
The new pragma/metadata overrides these defaults so the new behavior is:
B1. A1 + enable distribution for individual loop with the pragma/metadata
B2. A2 + disable distribution for individual loop with the pragma/metadata
The default value whether the pass is on or off comes from the initiator
of the pass. From the PassManagerBuilder the default is off, from opt
it's on.
I moved -enable-loop-distribute under the pass. If the flag is
specified it overrides the default from above.
Then the pragma/metadata can further modifies this per loop.
As a side-effect, we can now also use -enable-loop-distribute=0 from opt
to emulate the default from the optimization pipeline. So to be precise
this is the new behavior:
C1. pass is off by default from the optimization pipeline
unless -enable-loop-distribute or the pragma/metadata enables it
C2. pass is on when invoked directly from opt
unless -enable-loop-distribute=0 or the pragma/metadata disables it

I really thought we were doing this already, but we were not. Given this input:
void Test(int *res, int *c, int *d, int *p) {
for (int i = 0; i < 16; i++)
res[i] = (p[i] == 0) ? res[i] : res[i] + d[i];
}
we did not vectorize the loop. Even with "assume_safety" the check that we
don't if-convert conditionally-executed loads (to protect against
data-dependent deferenceability) was not elided.
One subtlety: As implemented, it will still prefer to use a masked-load
instrinsic (given target support) over the speculated load. The choice here
seems architecture specific; the best option depends on how expensive the
masked load is compared to a regular load. Ideally, using the masked load still
reduces unnecessary memory traffic, and so should be preferred. If we'd rather
do it the other way, flipping the order of the checks is easy.
The LangRef is updated to make explicit that llvm.mem.parallel_loop_access also
implies that if conversion is okay.

Eliminate DITypeIdentifierMap and make DITypeRef a thin wrapper around
DIType*. It is no longer legal to refer to a DICompositeType by its
'identifier:', and DIBuilder no longer retains all types with an
'identifier:' automatically.
Aside from the bitcode upgrade, this is mainly removing logic to resolve
an MDString-based reference to an actualy DIType. The commits leading
up to this have made the implicit type map in DICompileUnit's
'retainedTypes:' field superfluous.
This does not remove DITypeRef, DIScopeRef, DINodeRef, and
DITypeRefArray, or stop using them in DI-related metadata. Although as
of this commit they aren't serving a useful purpose, there are patchces
under review to reuse them for CodeView support.
The tests in LLVM were updated with deref-typerefs.sh, which is attached
to the thread "[RFC] Lazy-loading of debug info metadata":

This intrinsic takes two arguments, ``%ptr`` and ``%offset``. It loads
a 32-bit value from the address ``%ptr + %offset``, adds ``%ptr`` to that
value and returns it. The constant folder specifically recognizes the form of
this intrinsic and the constant initializers it may load from; if a loaded
constant initializer is known to have the form ``i32 trunc(x - %ptr)``,
the intrinsic call is folded to ``x``.
LLVM provides that the calculation of such a constant initializer will
not overflow at link time under the medium code model if ``x`` is an
``unnamed_addr`` function. However, it does not provide this guarantee for
a constant initializer folded into a function body. This intrinsic can be
used to avoid the possibility of overflows when loading from such a constant.

Both AArch64 and ARM support llvm.<arch>.thread.pointer intrinsics that
just return the thread pointer. I have a pending patch that does the same
for SystemZ (D19054), and there are many more targets that could benefit
from one.
This patch merges the ARM and AArch64 intrinsics into a single target
independent one that will also be used by subsequent targets.

With this change, ideally IR pass can always generate llvm.stackguard
call to get the stack guard; but for now there are still IR form stack
guard customizations around (see getIRStackGuard()). Future SSP
customization should go through LOAD_STACK_GUARD.
There is a behavior change: stack guard values are not CSEed anymore,
since we should never reuse the value in case that it has been spilled (and
corrupted). See ssp-guard-spill.ll. This also cause the change of stack
size and codegen in X86 and AArch64 test cases.
Ideally we'd like to know if the guard created in llvm.stackprotector() gets
spilled or not. If the value is spilled, discard the value and reload
stack guard; otherwise reuse the value. This can be done by teaching
register allocator to know how to rematerialize LOAD_STACK_GUARD and
force a rematerialization (which seems hard), or check for spilling in
expandPostRAPseudo. It only makes sense when the stack guard is a global
variable, which requires more instructions to load. Anyway, this seems to go out
of the scope of the current patch.

Summary:
The `"patchable-function"` attribute can be used by an LLVM client to
influence LLVM's code generation in ways that makes the generated code
easily patchable at runtime (for instance, to redirect control).
Right now only one patchability scheme is supported,
`"prologue-short-redirect"`, but this can be expanded in the future.

Rather than relying on the structural equivalence of DICompositeType to
merge type definitions, use an explicit map on the LLVMContext that
LLParser and BitcodeReader consult when constructing new nodes.
Each non-forward-declaration DICompositeType with a non-empty
'identifier:' field is stored/loaded from the type map, and the first
definiton will "win".
This map is opt-in: clients that expect ODR types from different modules
to be merged must call LLVMContext::ensureDITypeMap.
- Clients that just happen to load more than one Module in the same
LLVMContext won't magically merge types.
- Clients (like LTO) that want to continue to merge types based on ODR
identifiers should opt-in immediately.
I have updated LTOCodeGenerator.cpp, the two "linking" spots in
gold-plugin.cpp, and llvm-link (unless -disable-debug-info-type-map) to
set this.
With this in place, it will be straightforward to remove the DITypeRef
concept (i.e., referencing types by their 'identifier:' string rather
than pointing at them directly).

Merge members that are describing the same member of the same ODR type,
even if other bits differ. If the file or line differ, we don't care;
if anything else differs, it's an ODR violation (and we still don't
really care).
For DISubprogram declarations, this looks at the LinkageName and Scope.
For DW_TAG_member instances of DIDerivedType, this looks at the Name and
Scope. In both cases, we know that the Scope follows ODR rules if it
has a non-empty identifier.
