Rather than storing type units in a vector and emitting them at the end
of code generation, emit them immediately and destroy them, reclaiming the
memory we were using for their DIEs.
In one benchmark carried out against Chromium's 50 largest (by bitcode
file size) translation units, total peak memory consumption with type units
decreased by median 17%, or by 7% when compared against disabling type units.
Tested using check-{llvm,clang}, the GDB 7.5 test suite (with
'-fdebug-types-section') and by eyeballing llvm-dwarfdump output on those
Chromium translation units with split DWARF both disabled and enabled, and
verifying that the only changes were to addresses and abbreviation ordering.

Split out a helper `printValues()` for printing `DIEBlock` and `DIELoc`,
instead of relying on `DIE::print()`. The shared code was actually
fairly small there. No functionality change intended.
llvm-svn: 243856
Rewrite `DIEValueList` as a subclass of `DIE`, renaming its API to match
`DIE`'s. This is preparation for changing `DIEBlock` and `DIELoc` to
stop inheriting from `DIE` and inherit directly from `DIEValueList`.
I thought about leaving this as a has-a relationship (and changing
`DIELoc` and `DIEBlock` to also have-a `DIEValueList`), but that seemed
to require a fair bit more boilerplate and I think it needed more
changes to the `DwarfUnit` API than this will.
No functionality change intended here.

Summary:
Because llvm-dsymutil is using ASMPrinter without any MachineFunction
of Module available.
This change is part of a series of commits dedicated to have a single
DataLayout during compilation by using always the one owned by the
module.

Replace the `std::vector<>` for `DIE::Children` with an intrusively
linked list. This is a strict memory improvement: it requires no
auxiliary storage, and reduces `sizeof(DIE)` by one pointer. It also
factors out the DIE-related malloc traffic.
This drops llc memory usage from 735 MB down to 718 MB, or ~2.3%.
(I'm looking at `llc` memory usage on `verify-uselistorder.lto.opt.bc`;
see r236629 for details.)
llvm-svn: 240736
Change `DIE::Values` to a singly linked list, where each node is
allocated on a `BumpPtrAllocator`. In order to support `push_back()`,
the list is circular, and points at the tail element instead of the
head. I abstracted the core list logic out to `IntrusiveBackList` so
that it can be reused for `DIE::Children`, which also cares about
`push_back()`.
This drops llc memory usage from 799 MB down to 735 MB, about 8%.

Stop taking a `dwarf::Form` in `DIEValue::EmitValue()` and
`DIEValue::SizeOf()`, since they're always passed `DIEValue::getForm()`
anyway. This is just left over from when `DIEValue` didn't know its own
form.
llvm-svn: 240566
Different object formats represent references from dwarf in different ways.
ELF uses a relocation to the referenced point (except for .dwo) and
COFF/MachO use the offset of the referenced point inside its section.
This patch renames emitSectionOffset because
* It doesn't produce an offset on ELF.
* It changes behavior depending on how DWARF is represented, so adding
dwarf to its name is probably a good thing.
The patch also adds an option to force the use of offsets.That avoids
funny looking code like
if (!UseOffsets)
Asm->emitSectionOffset....
It was correct, but read as if the ! was inverted.
llvm-svn: 239866
Stop storing a `DIEAbbrev` in `DIE`, since the data fits neatly inside
the `DIEValue` list. Besides being a cleaner data structure (avoiding
the parallel arrays), this gives us more freedom to rearrange the
`DIEValue` list.
This fixes the temporary memory regression from 845 MB up to 879 MB, and
drops it further to 829 MB for a net memory decrease of around 1.9%
(incremental decrease around 5.7%).
(I'm looking at `llc` memory usage on `verify-uselistorder.lto.opt.bc`;

llvm-svn: 238364
This reverts commit r238350, effectively reapplying r238349 after fixing
(all?) the problems, all somehow related to how I was using
`AlignedArrayCharUnion<>` inside `DIEValue`:
- MSVC can only handle `sizeof()` on types, not values. Change the
assert.
- GCC doesn't know the `is_trivially_copyable` type trait. Instead of
asserting it, add destructors.
- Call placement new even when constructing POD (i.e., the pointers).
- Instead of copying the char buffer, copy the casted classes.
I've left in a couple of `static_assert`s that I think both MSVC and GCC
know how to handle. If the bots disagree with me, I'll remove them.
- Check that the constructed type is either standard layout or a
pointer. This protects against a programming error: we really want
the "small" `DIEValue`s to be small and simple, so don't
accidentally change them not to be.
- Similarly, check that the size of the buffer is no bigger than a
`uint64_t` or a pointer. (I thought checking against
`sizeof(uint64_t)` would be good enough, but Chandler suggested that
pointers might sometimes be bigger than that in the context of
sanitizers.)
I've also committed r238359 in the meantime, which introduces a
DIEValue.def to simplify dispatching between the various types (thanks
to a review comment by David Blaikie). Without that, this commit would
be almost unintelligible.
Here's the original commit message:
--
Change `DIEValue` to be stored/passed/etc. by value, instead of
reference. It's now a discriminated union, with a `Val` field storing
the actual type. The classes that used to inherit from `DIEValue` no
longer do. There are two categories of these:
- Small values fit in a single pointer and are stored by value.
- Large values require auxiliary storage, and are stored by reference.
The only non-mechanical change is to tools/dsymutil/DwarfLinker.cpp. It
was relying on `DIEInteger`s being passed around by reference, so I
replaced that assumption with a `PatchLocation` type that stores a safe
reference to where the `DIEInteger` lives instead.
This commit causes a temporary regression in memory usage, since I've
left merging `DIEAbbrevData` into `DIEValue` for a follow-up commit. I
measured an increase from 845 MB to 879 MB, around 3.9%. The follow-up
drops it lower than the starting point, and I've only recently brought
the memory this low anyway, so I'm committing these changes separately
to keep them incremental. (I also considered swapping the commits, but
the other one first would cause a lot more code churn.)

This reverts commit r238349, since it caused some errors on bots:
- std::is_trivially_copyable isn't available until GCC 5.0.
- It was complaining about strict aliasing with my use of
ArrayCharUnion.

Expose the `DwarfStringPool` entry in a header, and store a pointer to
it directly in `DIEString`. Instead of choosing at creation time how to
emit it, use the `dwarf::Form` to determine that at emission time.
Besides avoiding the other `DIEValue`, this shaves two pointers off of
`DIEString`; the data is now a single pointer. This is a nice cleanup
on its own -- and drops memory usage from 861 MB down to 853 MB, around
0.9% -- but it's also preparation for passing `DIEValue`s by value.
(I'm looking at `llc` memory usage on `verify-uselistorder.lto.opt.bc`;

llvm-svn: 238117
Remove all virtual functions from `DIEValue`, dropping the vtable
pointer from its layout. Instead, create "impl" functions on the
subclasses, and use the `DIEValue::Type` to implement the dynamic
dispatch.
This is necessary -- obviously not sufficient -- for passing `DIEValue`s
around by value. However, this change stands on its own: we make tons
of these. I measured a drop in memory usage from 888 MB down to 860 MB,
or around 3.2%.

This commit removes `DebugLocList` and replaces it with
`DebugLocStream`.
- `DebugLocEntry` no longer contains its byte/comment streams.
- The `DebugLocEntry` list for a variable/inlined-at pair is allocated
on the stack, and released right after `DebugLocEntry::finalize()`
(possible because of the refactoring in r231023). Now, only one
list is in memory at a time now.
- There's a single unified stream for the `.debug_loc` section that
persists, stored in the new `DebugLocStream` data structure.
The last point is important: this collapses the nested `SmallVector<>`s
from `DebugLocList` into unified streams. We previously had something
like the following:
vec<tuple<Label, CU,
vec<tuple<BeginSym, EndSym,
vec<Value>,
vec<char>,
vec<string>>>>>
A `SmallVector` can avoid allocations, but is statically fairly large
for a vector: three pointers plus the size of the small storage, which
is the number of elements in small mode times the element size).
Nesting these is expensive, since an inner vector's size contributes to
the element size of an outer one. (Nesting any vector is expensive...)
In the old data structure, the outer vector's *element* size was 632B,
excluding allocation costs for when the middle and inner vectors
exceeded their small sizes. 312B of this was for the "three" pointers
in the vector-tree beneath it. If you assume 1M functions with an
average of 10 variable/inlined-at pairs each (in an LTO scenario),
that's almost 6GB (besides inner allocations), with almost 3GB for the
"three" pointers.
This came up in a heap profile a little while ago of a `clang -flto -g`
bootstrap, with `DwarfDebug::collectVariableInfo()` using something like
10-15% of the total memory.
With this commit, we have:
tuple<vec<tuple<Label, CU, Offset>>,
vec<tuple<BeginSym, EndSym, Offset, Offset>>,
vec<char>,
vec<string>>
The offsets are used to create `ArrayRef` slices of adjacent
`SmallVector`s. This reduces the number of vectors to four (unrelated
to the number of variable/inlined-at pairs), and caps the number of
allocations at the same number.
Besides saving memory and limiting allocations, this is NFC.
I don't know my way around this code very well yet, but I wonder if we
could go further: why stream to a side-table, instead of directly to the
output stream?
llvm-svn: 235229
This makes code that uses section relative expressions (debug info) simpler and
less brittle.
This is still a bit awkward as the symbol is created late and has to be
stored in a mutable field.
I will move the symbol creation earlier in the next patch.

utils/sort_includes.py.
I clearly haven't done this in a while, so more changed than usual. This
even uncovered a missing include from the InstrProf library that I've
added. No functionality changed here, just mechanical cleanup of the
include order.

dsymutil would like to use all the AsmPrinter/MCStreamer infrastructure
to stream out the DWARF. In order to do so, it will reuse the DIE object
and so this header needs to be public.
The interface exposed here has some corners that cannot be used without a
DwarfDebug object, but clients that want to stream Dwarf can just avoid
these.

In preparation for sinking all the subprogram emission code down from
DwarfDebug into DwarfCompileUnit, this will avoid bloating
DwarfUnit.h/cpp greatly and make concerns a bit more clear/isolated.
(sinking this handling down is part of the work to handle emitting
minimal subprograms for -gmlt-like data into the skeleton CU under
fission)

Got bored, removed some manual memory management.
Pushed references (rather than pointers) through a few APIs rather than
replacing *x with x.get().

This removes the magic-number-esque code creating/retrieving the same
label for a debug_loc entry from two places and removes the last small
piece of reusable logic from emitDebugLoc so that there will be less
duplication when refactoring it into two functions (one for debug_loc,
the other for debug_loc.dwo).
llvm-svn: 205382
Implement debug_loc.dwo, as well as llvm-dwarfdump support for dumping
this section.
Outlined in the DWARF5 spec and http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/DebugFission the
debug_loc.dwo section has more variation than the standard debug_loc,
allowing 3 different forms of entry (plus the end of list entry). GCC
seems to, and Clang certainly, only use one form, so I've just
implemented dumping support for that for now.
It wasn't immediately obvious that there was a good refactoring to share
the implementation of dumping support between debug_loc and
debug_loc.dwo, so they're separate for now - ideas welcome or I may come
back to it at some point.
As per a comment in the code, we could choose different forms that may
reduce the number of debug_addr entries we emit, but that will require
further study.
llvm-svn: 204697
This works by moving the existing code into the DIEValue hierarchy
and using the DwarfDebug pointer off of the AsmPrinter to access
any global information we need.

This enables us to figure out where in the debug_loc section our
locations are so that we can eventually hash them. It also helps

alongside DIEBlock and replace uses accordingly. Use DW_FORM_exprloc
in DWARF4 and later code. Update testcases.
Adding a DIELoc instead of using extra forms inside DIEBlock so
that we can keep location expressions separate from other uses. No
direct use at the moment, however, it's not a lot of code and
using a separately named class keeps it somewhat more obvious
what's going on in various locations.
