The IRPGOFlag symbol (__llvm_profile_raw_version) is dropped when
identified as non-prevailing for either regular or thin LTO during
the mixed-LTO mode compilation. This happens in the module where
IRPGOFlag is marked as non-prevailing. This variable
is emitted in the final object from the prevailing module.
This is still problematic because we currently query this symbol
to coordinate some actions between PGOInstrumentation pass
and InstrProfiling lowering pass, like whether to do value
profiling, whether to do comdat renaming.
This problem is bought up by YolandaCY in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D107034
YolandCY reported unresolved symbol linker errors in
CSPGO instrumentation build for chromium.
This patch let LTO retain IRPGOFlag decl by adding it to
CompilerUsed list and relax the check in isIRPGOFlagSet() when
doing the InstrProfiling lowering.
The test case in the patch is from D107034

Original commit message:
Currently IndirectCallPromotion simply strip everything after the first "."
in LTO mode, in order to match the symbol name and the name with ".llvm."
suffix in the value profile. However, if -funique-internal-linkage-names
and thinlto are both enabled, the name may have both ".__uniq." suffix and
".llvm." suffix, and the current mechanism will strip them both, which is

sample loader pass.
In https://reviews.llvm.org/rG5fb65c02ca5e91e7e1a00e0efdb8edc899f3e4b9,
to prevent repeated indirect call promotion for the same indirect call
and the same target, we used zero-count value profile to indicate an
indirect call has been promoted for a certain target. We removed
PromotedInsns cache in the same patch. However, there was a problem in
that patch described below, and that problem led me to add PromotedInsns
back as a mitigation in
https://reviews.llvm.org/rG4ffad1fb489f691825d6c7d78e1626de142f26cf.
When we get value profile from metadata by calling getValueProfDataFromInst,
we need to specify the maximum possible number of values we expect to read.
We uses MaxNumPromotions in the last patch so the maximum number of value
information extracted from metadata is MaxNumPromotions. If we have many
values including zero-count values when we write the metadata, some of them
will be dropped when we read them because we only read MaxNumPromotions
values. It will allow repeated indirect call promotion again. We need to
make sure if there are values indicating promoted targets, those values need
to be saved in metadata with higher priority than other values.
The patch fixed that problem. We change to use -1 to represent the count
of a promoted target instead of 0 so it is easier to sort the values.
When we prepare to update the metadata in updateIDTMetaData, we will sort
the values in the descending count order and extract only MaxNumPromotions
values to write into metadata. Since -1 is the max uint64_t number, if we
have equal to or less than MaxNumPromotions of -1 count values, they will
all be kept in metadata. If we have more than MaxNumPromotions of -1 count
values, we will only save MaxNumPromotions such values maximally. In such
case, we have logic in place in doesHistoryAllowICP to guarantee no more
promotion in sample loader pass will happen for the indirect call, because
it has been promoted enough.
With this change, now we can remove PromotedInsns without problem.

Under certain (currently unknown) conditions, llvm-profdata is outputting
profiles that have two consecutive entries in the MemOPSize section for the
value 0. This causes the PGOMemOPSizeOpt pass to output an invalid switch
instruction with two cases for 0. As mentioned, we’re not quite sure what’s
causing this to happen, but this patch prevents llvm-profdata from outputting a
profile that has this problem and gives an error with a request for a

Found a problem in indirect call promotion in sample loader pass. Currently
if an indirect call is promoted for a target, and if the parent function is
inlined into some other function, the indirect call can be promoted for the
same target again. That is redundent which can harm performance and can cause
excessive compile time in some extreme case.
The patch fixes the issue. If a target is promoted for an indirect call, the
patch will write ICP metadata with the target call count being set to 0.
In the later ICP in sample profile loader, if it sees a target has 0 count
for an indirect call, it knows the target has been promoted and won't do
indirect call promotion for the indirect call.
The fix brings 0.1~0.2% performance on our search benchmark.

PGO profile is usually more precise than sample profile. However, PGO profile
needs to be collected from loadtest and loadtest may not be representative
enough to the production workload. Sample profile collected from production
can be used as a supplement -- for functions cold in loadtest but warm/hot
in production, we can scale up the related function in PGO profile if the
function is warm or hot in sample profile.
The implementation contains changes in compiler side and llvm-profdata side.
Given an instr profile and a sample profile, for a function cold in PGO
profile but warm/hot in sample profile, llvm-profdata will either mark
all the counters in the profile to be -1 or scale up the max count in the
function to be above hot threshold, depending on the zero counter ratio in
the profile. The assumption is if there are too many counters being zero
in the function profile, the profile is more likely to cause harm than good,
then llvm-profdata will mark all the counters to be -1 indicating the
function is hot but the profile is unaccountable. In compiler side, if a
function profile with all -1 counters is seen, the function entry count will
be set to be above hot threshold but its internal profile will be dropped.
In the long run, it may be useful to let compiler support using PGO profile
and sample profile at the same time, but that requires more careful design
and more substantial changes to make two profiles work seamlessly. The patch
here serves as a simple intermediate solution.

Revise the coverage mapping format to reduce binary size by:
1. Naming function records and marking them `linkonce_odr`, and
2. Compressing filenames.
This shrinks the size of llc's coverage segment by 82% (334MB -> 62MB)
and speeds up end-to-end single-threaded report generation by 10%. For
reference the compressed name data in llc is 81MB (__llvm_prf_names).
Rationale for changes to the format:
- With the current format, most coverage function records are discarded.
E.g., more than 97% of the records in llc are *duplicate* placeholders
for functions visible-but-not-used in TUs. Placeholders *are* used to
show under-covered functions, but duplicate placeholders waste space.
- We reached general consensus about giving (1) a try at the 2017 code
coverage BoF [1]. The thinking was that using `linkonce_odr` to merge
duplicates is simpler than alternatives like teaching build systems
about a coverage-aware database/module/etc on the side.
- Revising the format is expensive due to the backwards compatibility
requirement, so we might as well compress filenames while we're at it.
This shrinks the encoded filenames in llc by 86% (12MB -> 1.6MB).
See CoverageMappingFormat.rst for the details on what exactly has
changed.
Fixes PR34533 [2], hopefully.

Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D60977
llvm-svn: 359612
Current PGO profile counts are not context sensitive. The branch probabilities
for the inlined functions are kept the same for all call-sites, and they might
be very different from the actual branch probabilities. These suboptimal
profiles can greatly affect some downstream optimizations, in particular for
the machine basic block placement optimization.
In this patch, we propose to have a post-inline PGO instrumentation/use pass,
which we called Context Sensitive PGO (CSPGO). For the users who want the best
possible performance, they can perform a second round of PGO instrument/use on
the top of the regular PGO. They will have two sets of profile counts. The
first pass profile will be manly for inline, indirect-call promotion, and
CGSCC simplification pass optimizations. The second pass profile is for
post-inline optimizations and code-gen optimizations.
A typical usage:
// Regular PGO instrumentation and generate pass1 profile.
> clang -O2 -fprofile-generate source.c -o gen
> ./gen
> llvm-profdata merge default.*profraw -o pass1.profdata
// CSPGO instrumentation.
> clang -O2 -fprofile-use=pass1.profdata -fcs-profile-generate -o gen2
> ./gen2
// Merge two sets of profiles
> llvm-profdata merge default.*profraw pass1.profdata -o profile.profdata
// Use the combined profile. Pass manager will invoke two PGO use passes.
> clang -O2 -fprofile-use=profile.profdata -o use

inconsistent (unsorted) state. We could sort in the accessor, however,
a client may store the pointer and thus bypass the internal state

These command line options are not intended for public use, and often
don't even make sense in the context of a particular tool anyway. About
90% of them are already hidden, but when people add new options they
forget to hide them, so if you were to make a brand new tool today, link
against one of LLVM's libraries, and run tool -help you would get a
bunch of junk that doesn't make sense for the tool you're writing.
This patch hides these options. The real solution is to not have

Examining a large profile example, it seems relatively few records have
non-empty IndirectCall and MemOP data, so indirecting these through a
unique_ptr (non-null only when they are non-empty) Reduces memory usage
on this particular example from 14GB to 10GB according to valgrind's
massif.
I suspect it'd still be worth moving InstrProfWriter to its own data
structure that had Counts and the indirected IndirectCall+MemOP, and did
not include the Name, Hash, or Error fields. This would reduce the size
of this dominant data structure by half of this new, lower amount.
(Name(2), Hash(1), Error(1) ~= Counts(vector, 3), ValueProfData
(unique_ptr, 1))
-> From code review feedback, might actually refactor InstrProfRecord
itself to have a sub-struct with all the counts, and use that from
InstrProfWriter, rather than InstrProfWriter owning its own data
structure for this.
