This relieves ObjectLinkingLayer clients of the responsibility of holding the
memory manager. This makes it easier to select between RTDyldObjectLinkingLayer
(which already owned its memory manager factory) and ObjectLinkingLayer at
runtime as clients aren't required to hold a jitlink::MemoryManager field just
in case ObjectLinkingLayer is selected.
This patch removes the magic "main" JITDylib from ExecutionEngine. The main
JITDylib was created automatically at ExecutionSession construction time, and
all subsequently created JITDylibs were added to the main JITDylib's
links-against list by default. This saves a couple of lines of boilerplate for
simple JIT setups, but this isn't worth introducing magical behavior for.
ORCv2 clients should now construct their own main JITDylib using
ExecutionSession::createJITDylib and set up its linkages manually using
JITDylib::setSearchOrder (or related methods in JITDylib).
The runAsMain function takes a pointer to a function with a standard C main
signature, int(*)(int, char*[]), and invokes it using the given arguments and
program name. The arguments are copied into writable temporary storage as
required by the C and C++ specifications, so runAsMain safe to use when calling
main functions that modify their arguments in-place.
This patch also uses the new runAsMain function to replace hand-rolled versions
in lli, llvm-jitlink, and the SpeculativeJIT example.
libraries.
This patch substantially updates ORCv2's lookup API in order to support weak
references, and to better support static archives. Key changes:
-- Each symbol being looked for is now associated with a SymbolLookupFlags
value. If the associated value is SymbolLookupFlags::RequiredSymbol then
the symbol must be defined in one of the JITDylibs being searched (or be
able to be generated in one of these JITDylibs via an attached definition
generator) or the lookup will fail with an error. If the associated value is
SymbolLookupFlags::WeaklyReferencedSymbol then the symbol is permitted to be
undefined, in which case it will simply not appear in the resulting
SymbolMap if the rest of the lookup succeeds.
Since lookup now requires these flags for each symbol, the lookup method now
takes an instance of a new SymbolLookupSet type rather than a SymbolNameSet.
SymbolLookupSet is a vector-backed set of (name, flags) pairs. Clients are
responsible for ensuring that the set property (i.e. unique elements) holds,
though this is usually simple and SymbolLookupSet provides convenience
methods to support this.
-- Lookups now have an associated LookupKind value, which is either
LookupKind::Static or LookupKind::DLSym. Definition generators can inspect
the lookup kind when determining whether or not to generate new definitions.
The StaticLibraryDefinitionGenerator is updated to only pull in new objects
from the archive if the lookup kind is Static. This allows lookup to be
re-used to emulate dlsym for JIT'd symbols without pulling in new objects
from archives (which would not happen in a normal dlsym call).
-- JITLink is updated to allow externals to be assigned weak linkage, and
weak externals now use the SymbolLookupFlags::WeaklyReferencedSymbol value
for lookups. Unresolved weak references will be assigned the default value of
zero.
Since this patch was modifying the lookup API anyway, it alo replaces all of the
"MatchNonExported" boolean arguments with a "JITDylibLookupFlags" enum for
readability. If a JITDylib's associated value is
JITDylibLookupFlags::MatchExportedSymbolsOnly then the lookup will only
match against exported (non-hidden) symbols in that JITDylib. If a JITDylib's
associated value is JITDylibLookupFlags::MatchAllSymbols then the lookup will
match against any symbol defined in the JITDylib.
MipsMCAsmInfo was using '$' prefix for Mips32 and '.L' for Mips64
regardless of -target-abi option. By passing MCTargetOptions to MCAsmInfo
we can find out Mips ABI and pick appropriate prefix.

In the Atom model the symbols, content and relocations of a relocatable object
file are represented as a graph of atoms, where each Atom represents a
contiguous block of content with a single name (or no name at all if the
content is anonymous), and where edges between Atoms represent relocations.
If more than one symbol is associated with a contiguous block of content then
the content is broken into multiple atoms and layout constraints (represented by
edges) are introduced to ensure that the content remains effectively contiguous.
These layout constraints must be kept in mind when examining the content
associated with a symbol (it may be spread over multiple atoms) or when applying
certain relocation types (e.g. MachO subtractors).
This patch replaces the Atom model in JITLink with a blocks-and-symbols model.
The blocks-and-symbols model represents relocatable object files as bipartite
graphs, with one set of nodes representing contiguous content (Blocks) and
another representing named or anonymous locations (Symbols) within a Block.
Relocations are represented as edges from Blocks to Symbols. This scheme
removes layout constraints (simplifying handling of MachO alt-entry symbols,
and hopefully ELF sections at some point in the future) and simplifies some
relocation logic.

The llvm-jitlink utility now accepts a '-slab-allocate <size>' option. If given,
llvm-jitlink will use a slab-based memory manager rather than the default
InProcessMemoryManager. Using a slab allocator will allow reliable testing of
future locality based optimizations (e.g. PLT and GOT elimination) in JITLink.
The <size> argument is a number, optionally followed by a units specifier (Kb,
Mb, or Gb). If the units are not given then the number is assumed to be in Kb.

When using llvm-rtdyld to execute code, -show-times will now show the time
taken to load the object files, apply relocations, and execute the
rtdyld-linked code.

Now that we've moved to C++14, we no longer need the llvm::make_unique
implementation from STLExtras.h. This patch is a mechanical replacement
of (hopefully) all the llvm::make_unique instances across the monorepo.
llvm-svn: 369013
This patch replaces the JITDylib::DefinitionGenerator typedef with a class of
the same name, and adds support for attaching a sequence of DefinitionGeneration
objects to a JITDylib.
This patch also adds a new definition generator,
StaticLibraryDefinitionGenerator, that can be used to add symbols fom a static
library to a JITDylib. An object from the static library will be added (via
a supplied ObjectLayer reference) whenever a symbol from that object is
referenced.
To enable testing, lli is updated to add support for the --extra-archive option
when running in -jit-kind=orc-lazy mode.

Replaces direct calls to eh-frame registration with calls to methods on an
EHFrameRegistrar instance. This allows clients to substitute a registrar that
registers frames in a remote process via IPC/RPC.
llvm-svn: 365098
Also updates RuntimeDyldChecker and llvm-rtdyld to support zero-fill tests by
returning a content address of zero (but no error) for zero-fill atoms, and
treating loads from zero as returning zero.

ObjectLinkingLayer::Plugin provides event notifications when objects are loaded,
emitted, and removed. It also provides a modifyPassConfig callback that allows
plugins to modify the JITLink pass configuration.
This patch moves eh-frame registration into its own plugin, and teaches
llvm-jitlink to only add that plugin when performing execution runs on
non-Windows platforms. This should allow us to re-enable the test case that was
removed in r359198.
llvm-svn: 359357
The --args option can now be used to pass arguments to code linked with
llvm-jitlink. E.g.
$ llvm-jitlink file1.o file2.o --args a b c
is equivalent to:
$ ld -o program file1.o file2.o
$ ./program a b c

Frame Descriptor Entries (FDEs) have a pointer back to a Common Information
Entry (CIE) that describes how the rest FDE should be parsed. JITLink had been
assuming that FDEs always referred to the most recent CIE encountered, but the
spec allows them to point back to any previously encountered CIE. This patch
fixes JITLink to look up the correct CIE for the FDE.
The testcase is a MachO binary with an FDE that refers to a CIE that is not the
one immediately proceeding it (the layout can be viewed wit
'dwarfdump --eh-frame <testcase>'. This test case had to be a binary as llvm-mc
now sorts FDEs (as of r356216) to ensure FDEs *do* point to the most recent CIE.

The -dump-relocated-section-content option will dump the contents of each
section after relocations are applied, and before any checks are run or
code executed.

Summary:
JITLink is a jit-linker that performs the same high-level task as RuntimeDyld:
it parses relocatable object files and makes their contents runnable in a target
process.
JITLink aims to improve on RuntimeDyld in several ways:
(1) A clear design intended to maximize code-sharing while minimizing coupling.
RuntimeDyld has been developed in an ad-hoc fashion for a number of years and
this had led to intermingling of code for multiple architectures (e.g. in
RuntimeDyldELF::processRelocationRef) in a way that makes the code more
difficult to read, reason about, extend. JITLink is designed to isolate
format and architecture specific code, while still sharing generic code.
(2) Support for native code models.
RuntimeDyld required the use of large code models (where calls to external
functions are made indirectly via registers) for many of platforms due to its
restrictive model for stub generation (one "stub" per symbol). JITLink allows
arbitrary mutation of the atom graph, allowing both GOT and PLT atoms to be
added naturally.
(3) Native support for asynchronous linking.
JITLink uses asynchronous calls for symbol resolution and finalization: these
callbacks are passed a continuation function that they must call to complete the
linker's work. This allows for cleaner interoperation with the new concurrent
ORC JIT APIs, while still being easily implementable in synchronous style if
asynchrony is not needed.
To maximise sharing, the design has a hierarchy of common code:
(1) Generic atom-graph data structure and algorithms (e.g. dead stripping and
| memory allocation) that are intended to be shared by all architectures.
|
+ -- (2) Shared per-format code that utilizes (1), e.g. Generic MachO to
| atom-graph parsing.
|
+ -- (3) Architecture specific code that uses (1) and (2). E.g.
JITLinkerMachO_x86_64, which adds x86-64 specific relocation
support to (2) to build and patch up the atom graph.
To support asynchronous symbol resolution and finalization, the callbacks for
these operations take continuations as arguments:
using JITLinkAsyncLookupContinuation =
std::function<void(Expected<AsyncLookupResult> LR)>;
using JITLinkAsyncLookupFunction =
std::function<void(const DenseSet<StringRef> &Symbols,
JITLinkAsyncLookupContinuation LookupContinuation)>;
using FinalizeContinuation = std::function<void(Error)>;
virtual void finalizeAsync(FinalizeContinuation OnFinalize);
In addition to its headline features, JITLink also makes other improvements:
- Dead stripping support: symbols that are not used (e.g. redundant ODR
definitions) are discarded, and take up no memory in the target process
(In contrast, RuntimeDyld supported pointer equality for weak definitions,
but the redundant definitions stayed resident in memory).
- Improved exception handling support. JITLink provides a much more extensive
eh-frame parser than RuntimeDyld, and is able to correctly fix up many
eh-frame sections that RuntimeDyld currently (silently) fails on.
- More extensive validation and error handling throughout.
This initial patch supports linking MachO/x86-64 only. Work on support for
other architectures and formats will happen in-tree.
