Unify the error messages for the various tools when `verifyModule()`
fails on an input module. The "brave new way" is:
lltool: path/to/input.ll: error: input module is broken!
llvm-svn: 233667
Fix testcases that don't pass the verifier after a WIP patch to check
`MDSubprogram` operands more effectively. I found the following issues:
- When `isDefinition: false`, the `variables:` field might point at
`!{i32 786468}`, or at a tuple that pointed at an empty tuple with
the comment "previously: invalid DW_TAG_base_type" (I vaguely recall
adding those comments during an upgrade script). In these cases, I
just dropped the array.
- The `variables:` field might point at something like `!{!{!8}}`,
where `!8` was an `MDLocation`. I removed the extra layer of
indirection.
- Invalid `type:` (not an `MDSubroutineType`).
llvm-svn: 233466
Fix debug info in these tests, which started failing with a WIP patch to
verify compile units and types. The problems look like they were all
caused by bitrot. They fell into these categories:
- Using `!{i32 0}` instead of `!{}`.
- Using `!{null}` instead of `!{}`.
- Using `!MDExpression()` instead of `!{}`.
- Using `!8` instead of `!{!8}`.
- `file:` references that pointed at `MDCompileUnit`s instead of the
same `MDFile` as the compile unit.
- `file:` references that were numerically off-by-one or (off-by-ten).
llvm-svn: 233415
Dropping old debug format requires the entire module to be read upfront.
This was failing only with the gold plugin, but that is just because
llvm-link was not upgrading metadata.
The new testcase using llvm-link shows the problem.
llvm-svn: 233381
Check accessors of `MDLocation`, and change them to `cast<>` down to the
right types. Also add type-safe factory functions.
All the callers that handle broken code need to use the new versions of
the accessors (`getRawScope()` instead of `getScope()`) that still
return `Metadata*`. This is also necessary for things like
`MDNodeKeyImpl<MDLocation>` (in LLVMContextImpl.h) that need to unique
the nodes when their operands might still be forward references of the
wrong type.
In the `Value` hierarchy, consumers that handle broken code use
`getOperand()` directly. However, debug info nodes have a ton of
operands, and their order (even their existence) isn't stable yet. It's
safer and more maintainable to add an explicit "raw" accessor on the
class itself.
llvm-svn: 233322
This reverts commit r233254, effectively reapplying r233164 (and its
successors), with an additional testcase for when subprograms match
exactly. This fixes PR22792 (again).
I'm using the same approach, but I've moved up the call to
`stripReplacedSubprograms()`. The function pointers need to be dropped
before mapping any metadata from the source module, or else this can
drop the function from new subprograms that have merged (via Metadata
uniquing) with the old ones. Dropping the pointers first prevents them
from merging.
**** The original commit message follows. ****
Linker: Drop function pointers for overridden subprograms
Instead of dropping subprograms that have been overridden, just set
their function pointers to `nullptr`. This is a minor adjustment to the
stop-gap fix for PR21910 committed in r224487, and fixes the crasher
from PR22792.
The problem that r224487 put a band-aid on: how do we find the canonical
subprogram for a `Function`? Since the backend currently relies on
`DebugInfoFinder` (which does a naive in-order traversal of compile
units and picks the first subprogram) for this, r224487 tried dropping
non-canonical subprograms.
Dropping subprograms fails because the backend *also* builds up a map
from subprogram to compile unit (`DwarfDebug::SPMap`) based on the
subprogram lists. A missing subprogram causes segfaults later when an
inlined reference (such as in this testcase) is created.
Instead, just drop the `Function` pointer to `nullptr`, which nicely
mirrors what happens when an already-inlined `Function` is optimized
out. We can't really be sure that it's the same definition anyway, as
the testcase demonstrates.
This still isn't completely satisfactory. Two flaws at least that I can
think of:
- I still haven't found a straightforward way to make this symmetric
in the IR. (Interestingly, the DWARF output is already symmetric,
and I've tested for that to be sure we don't regress.)
- Using `DebugInfoFinder` to find the canonical subprogram for a
function is kind of crazy. We should just attach metadata to the
function, like this:
define weak i32 @foo(i32, i32) !dbg !MDSubprogram(...) {
llvm-svn: 233302
Otherwise, broken input modules can cause assertions. I've updated two
of the testcases that started failing (modules that had `Require` flags
but didn't meet their own requirements), but Rafael and I decided that
test/Linker/2011-08-22-ResolveAlias.ll should just be deleted outright
-- it's a leftover of the way llvm-gcc used to implement weakref.
llvm-svn: 233229
As dblaikie pointed out, if I stop setting `emissionKind: 2` then the
backend won't do magical things on Linux vs. Darwin. I had wrongly
assumed that there were stricter requirements on the input if we weren't
in line-tables-only mode, but apparently not.
With that knowledge, clean up this testcase a little more.
- Set `emissionKind: 1`.
- Add back checks for the weak version of @foo.
- Check more robustly that we have the right subprograms by checking
the `DW_AT_decl_file` and `DW_AT_decl_line` which now show up.
- Check the line table in isolation (since it's no longer doubling as
an indirect test for the subprogram of the weak version of @foo).
llvm-svn: 233221
Rewrite the checks from r233164 that I temporarily disabled in r233165.
It turns out that the line-tables only debug info we emit from `llc` is
(intentionally) different on Linux than on Darwin. r218129 started
skipping emission of subprograms with no inlined subroutines, and
r218702 was a spiritual revert of that behaviour for Darwin.
I think we can still test this in a platform-neutral way.
- Stop checking for the possibly missing `DW_TAG_subprogram` defining
the debug info for the real version of `@foo`.
- Start checking the line tables, ensuring that the right debug info
was used to generate them (grabbing `DW_AT_low_pc` from the compile
unit).
- I changed up the line numbers used in the "weak" version so it's
easier to follow.
This should hopefully finish off PR22792.
llvm-svn: 233207
At least one Linux bot [1] doesn't like my dwarfdump checks, so I've
disable those until I can investigate what's going on there. I'll

DataLayout keeps the string used for its creation.
As a side effect it is no longer needed in the Module.
This is "almost" NFC, the string is no longer
canonicalized, you can't rely on two "equals" DataLayout
having the same string returned by getStringRepresentation().
Get rid of DataLayoutPass: the DataLayout is in the Module
The DataLayout is "per-module", let's enforce this by not
duplicating it more than necessary.
One more step toward non-optionality of the DataLayout in the
module.
Make DataLayout Non-Optional in the Module
Module->getDataLayout() will never returns nullptr anymore.

Move the specialized metadata nodes for the new debug info hierarchy
into place, finishing off PR22464. I've done bootstraps (and all that)
and I'm confident this commit is NFC as far as DWARF output is
concerned. Let me know if I'm wrong :).
The code changes are fairly mechanical:
- Bumped the "Debug Info Version".
- `DIBuilder` now creates the appropriate subclass of `MDNode`.
- Subclasses of DIDescriptor now expect to hold their "MD"
counterparts (e.g., `DIBasicType` expects `MDBasicType`).
- Deleted a ton of dead code in `AsmWriter.cpp` and `DebugInfo.cpp`
for printing comments.
- Big update to LangRef to describe the nodes in the new hierarchy.
Feel free to make it better.
Testcase changes are enormous. There's an accompanying clang commit on
its way.
If you have out-of-tree debug info testcases, I just broke your build.
- `upgrade-specialized-nodes.sh` is attached to PR22564. I used it to
update all the IR testcases.
- Unfortunately I failed to find way to script the updates to CHECK
lines, so I updated all of these by hand. This was fairly painful,
since the old CHECKs are difficult to reason about. That's one of
the benefits of the new hierarchy.
This work isn't quite finished, BTW. The `DIDescriptor` subclasses are
almost empty wrappers, but not quite: they still have loose casting
checks (see the `RETURN_FROM_RAW()` macro). Once they're completely
gutted, I'll rename the "MD" classes to "DI" and kill the wrappers. I
also expect to make a few schema changes now that it's easier to reason
about everything.

One of several parallel first steps to remove the target type of pointers,
replacing them with a single opaque pointer type.
This adds an explicit type parameter to the gep instruction so that when the
first parameter becomes an opaque pointer type, the type to gep through is
still available to the instructions.
* This doesn't modify gep operators, only instructions (operators will be
handled separately)
* Textual IR changes only. Bitcode (including upgrade) and changing the
in-memory representation will be in separate changes.
* geps of vectors are transformed as:
getelementptr <4 x float*> %x, ...
->getelementptr float, <4 x float*> %x, ...
Then, once the opaque pointer type is introduced, this will ultimately look
like:
getelementptr float, <4 x ptr> %x
with the unambiguous interpretation that it is a vector of pointers to float.
* address spaces remain on the pointer, not the type:
getelementptr float addrspace(1)* %x
->getelementptr float, float addrspace(1)* %x
Then, eventually:
getelementptr float, ptr addrspace(1) %x
Importantly, the massive amount of test case churn has been automated by
same crappy python code. I had to manually update a few test cases that
wouldn't fit the script's model (r228970,r229196,r229197,r229198). The
python script just massages stdin and writes the result to stdout, I
then wrapped that in a shell script to handle replacing files, then
using the usual find+xargs to migrate all the files.

From llvm/src/tools/polly:
find test/ -name *.ll | xargs ./apply.sh
After that, check-all (with llvm, clang, clang-tools-extra, lld,
compiler-rt, and polly all checked out).
The extra 'rm' in the apply.sh script is due to a few files in clang's test
suite using interesting unicode stuff that my python script was throwing
exceptions on. None of those files needed to be migrated, so it seemed
sufficient to ignore those cases.

Now that `Metadata` is typeless, reflect that in the assembly. These
are the matching assembly changes for the metadata/value split in
r223802.
- Only use the `metadata` type when referencing metadata from a call
intrinsic -- i.e., only when it's used as a `Value`.
- Stop pretending that `ValueAsMetadata` is wrapped in an `MDNode`
when referencing it from call intrinsics.
So, assembly like this:
define @foo(i32 %v) {
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 %v}, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 7}, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !1, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{metadata !3}, metadata !0)
ret void, !bar !2
}
!0 = metadata !{metadata !2}
!1 = metadata !{i32* @global}
!2 = metadata !{metadata !3}
!3 = metadata !{}
turns into this:
define @foo(i32 %v) {
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 %v, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 7, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32* @global, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{!3}, metadata !0)
ret void, !bar !2
}
!0 = !{!2}
!1 = !{i32* @global}
!2 = !{!3}
!3 = !{}

Split `Metadata` away from the `Value` class hierarchy, as part of
PR21532. Assembly and bitcode changes are in the wings, but this is the
bulk of the change for the IR C++ API.
I have a follow-up patch prepared for `clang`. If this breaks other
sub-projects, I apologize in advance :(. Help me compile it on Darwin
I'll try to fix it. FWIW, the errors should be easy to fix, so it may
be simpler to just fix it yourself.
This breaks the build for all metadata-related code that's out-of-tree.
Rest assured the transition is mechanical and the compiler should catch
almost all of the problems.
Here's a quick guide for updating your code:
- `Metadata` is the root of a class hierarchy with three main classes:
`MDNode`, `MDString`, and `ValueAsMetadata`. It is distinct from
the `Value` class hierarchy. It is typeless -- i.e., instances do
*not* have a `Type`.
- `MDNode`'s operands are all `Metadata *` (instead of `Value *`).
- `TrackingVH<MDNode>` and `WeakVH` referring to metadata can be
replaced with `TrackingMDNodeRef` and `TrackingMDRef`, respectively.
If you're referring solely to resolved `MDNode`s -- post graph
construction -- just use `MDNode*`.
- `MDNode` (and the rest of `Metadata`) have only limited support for
`replaceAllUsesWith()`.
As long as an `MDNode` is pointing at a forward declaration -- the
result of `MDNode::getTemporary()` -- it maintains a side map of its
uses and can RAUW itself. Once the forward declarations are fully
resolved RAUW support is dropped on the ground. This means that
uniquing collisions on changing operands cause nodes to become
"distinct". (This already happened fairly commonly, whenever an
operand went to null.)
If you're constructing complex (non self-reference) `MDNode` cycles,
you need to call `MDNode::resolveCycles()` on each node (or on a
top-level node that somehow references all of the nodes). Also,
don't do that. Metadata cycles (and the RAUW machinery needed to
construct them) are expensive.
- An `MDNode` can only refer to a `Constant` through a bridge called
`ConstantAsMetadata` (one of the subclasses of `ValueAsMetadata`).
As a side effect, accessing an operand of an `MDNode` that is known
to be, e.g., `ConstantInt`, takes three steps: first, cast from
`Metadata` to `ConstantAsMetadata`; second, extract the `Constant`;
third, cast down to `ConstantInt`.
The eventual goal is to introduce `MDInt`/`MDFloat`/etc. and have
metadata schema owners transition away from using `Constant`s when
the type isn't important (and they don't care about referring to
`GlobalValue`s).
In the meantime, I've added transitional API to the `mdconst`
namespace that matches semantics with the old code, in order to
avoid adding the error-prone three-step equivalent to every call
site. If your old code was:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(isa <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(cast <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(cast_or_null <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(dyn_cast <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(dyn_cast_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
you can trivially match its semantics with:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(mdconst::hasa <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(mdconst::extract <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(mdconst::extract_or_null <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(mdconst::dyn_extract <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(mdconst::dyn_extract_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
and when you transition your metadata schema to `MDInt`:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(isa <MDInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(cast <MDInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(cast_or_null <MDInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(dyn_cast <MDInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(dyn_cast_or_null<MDInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
- A `CallInst` -- specifically, intrinsic instructions -- can refer to
metadata through a bridge called `MetadataAsValue`. This is a
subclass of `Value` where `getType()->isMetadataTy()`.
`MetadataAsValue` is the *only* class that can legally refer to a
`LocalAsMetadata`, which is a bridged form of non-`Constant` values
like `Argument` and `Instruction`. It can also refer to any other
`Metadata` subclass.
(I'll break all your testcases in a follow-up commit, when I propagate
this change to assembly.)

We were already lazily linking functions, but all GlobalValues can be treated

The non-opaque part can be structurally uniqued. To keep this to just
a hash lookup, we don't try to unique cyclic types.
Also change the type mapping algorithm to be optimistic about a type
not being recursive and only create a new type when proven to be wrong.
This is not as strong as trying to speculate that we can keep the source
type, but is simpler (no speculation to revert) and more powerfull
than what we had before (we don't copy non-recursive types at least).
I initially wrote this to try to replace the name based type merging.
It is not strong enough to replace it, but is is a useful addition.
With this patch the number of named struct types is a clang lto bootstrap goes
from 49674 to 15986.

When lazy reading a module, the types used in a function will not be visible to
a TypeFinder until the body is read.
This patch fixes that by asking the module for its identified struct types.
If a materializer is present, the module asks it. If not, it uses a TypeFinder.
This fixes pr21374.
I will be the first to say that this is ugly, but it was the best I could find.
Some of the options I looked at:
* Asking the LLVMContext. This could be made to work for gold, but not currently
for ld64. ld64 will load multiple modules into a single context before merging
them. This causes us to see types from future merges. Unfortunately,
MappedTypes is not just a cache when it comes to opaque types. Once the
mapping has been made, we have to remember it for as long as the key may
be used. This would mean moving MappedTypes to the Linker class and having
to drop the Linker::LinkModules static methods, which are visible from C.
* Adding an option to ignore function bodies in the TypeFinder. This would
fix the PR by picking the worst result. It would work, but unfortunately
we are currently quite dependent on the upfront type merging. I will
try to reduce our dependency, but it is not clear that we will be able
to get rid of it for now.
The only clean solution I could think of is making the Module own the types.
This would have other advantages, but it is a much bigger change. I will
propose it, but it is nice to have this fixed while that is discussed.
With the gold plugin, this patch takes the number of types in the LTO clang
binary from 52817 to 49669.

Patch by Ben Gamari!
This redefines the `prefix` attribute introduced previously and
introduces a `prologue` attribute. There are a two primary usecases
that these attributes aim to serve,
1. Function prologue sigils
2. Function hot-patching: Enable the user to insert `nop` operations
at the beginning of the function which can later be safely replaced
with a call to some instrumentation facility
3. Runtime metadata: Allow a compiler to insert data for use by the
runtime during execution. GHC is one example of a compiler that
needs this functionality for its tables-next-to-code functionality.
Previously `prefix` served cases (1) and (2) quite well by allowing the user
to introduce arbitrary data at the entrypoint but before the function
body. Case (3), however, was poorly handled by this approach as it
required that prefix data was valid executable code.
Here we redefine the notion of prefix data to instead be data which
occurs immediately before the function entrypoint (i.e. the symbol
address). Since prefix data now occurs before the function entrypoint,
there is no need for the data to be valid code.
The previous notion of prefix data now goes under the name "prologue
data" to emphasize its duality with the function epilogue.
The intention here is to handle cases (1) and (2) with prologue data and
case (3) with prefix data.

This idea arose out of discussions[1] with Reid Kleckner in response to a
proposal to introduce the notion of symbol offsets to enable handling of
case (3).

The explicit set of destination types is not fully redundant when lazy loading
since the TypeFinder will not find types used only in function bodies.
This keeps the logic to drop the name of mapped types since it still helps
with avoiding further renaming.
