clang currently calls MarkVTableUsed() for classes that get their virtual
methods called or that participate in a dynamic_cast. This is unnecessary,
since CodeGen only emits vtables when it generates constructor, destructor, and
vtt code. (*)
Note that Sema::MarkVTableUsed() doesn't cause the emission of a vtable.
Its main user-visible effect is that it instantiates virtual member functions
of template classes, to make sure that if codegen decides to write a vtable
all the entries in the vtable are defined.
While this shouldn't change the behavior of codegen (other than being faster),
it does make clang more permissive: virtual methods of templates (in particular
destructors) end up being instantiated less often. In particular, classes that
have members that are smart pointers to incomplete types will now get their
implicit virtual destructor instantiated less frequently. For example, this
used to not compile but does now compile:
template <typename T> struct OwnPtr {
~OwnPtr() { static_assert((sizeof(T) > 0), "TypeMustBeComplete"); }
};
class ScriptLoader;
struct Base { virtual ~Base(); };
struct Sub : public Base {
virtual void someFun() const {}
OwnPtr<ScriptLoader> m_loader;
};
void f(Sub *s) { s->someFun(); }
The more permissive behavior matches both gcc (where this is not often
observable, since in practice most things with virtual methods have a key
function, and Sema::DefineUsedVTables() skips vtables for classes with key
functions) and cl (which is my motivation for this change) – this fixes
PR20337. See this issue and the review thread for some discussions about
optimizations.
This is similar to r213109 in spirit. r225761 was a prerequisite for this
change.
Various tests relied on "a->f()" marking a's vtable as used (in the sema
sense), switch these to just construct a on the stack. This forces
instantiation of the implicit constructor, which will mark the vtable as used.
(*) The exception is -fapple-kext mode: In this mode, qualified calls to
virtual functions (`a->Base::f()`) still go through the vtable, and since the
vtable pointer off this doesn't point to Base's vtable, this needs to reference
Base's vtable directly. To keep this working, keep referencing the vtable for
virtual calls in apple kext mode.

Previously we would do the access check from the context of
MarkVTableUsed.
Also update this test to C++11, since that is typically used with the MS
C++ ABI.
Fixes PR20005.

We were previously checking at every destructor declaration, but that was a bit
excessive. Since the deleting destructor is emitted with the vtable, do the
check when the vtable is marked used.

This makes the C++ ABI depend entirely on the target: MS ABI for -win32 triples,
Itanium otherwise. It's no longer possible to do weird combinations.
To be able to run a test with a specific ABI without constraining it to a
specific triple, new substitutions are added to lit: %itanium_abi_triple and
%ms_abi_triple can be used to get the current target triple adjusted to the
desired ABI. For example, if the test suite is running with the i686-pc-win32
target, %itanium_abi_triple will expand to i686-pc-mingw32.

The ABI requires the destructor to be invoked in the callee, but the
standard does not require access checks here so we avoid doing direct
access checks on the destructor.
If we end up needing to define an implicit destructor, we don't skip
access checks for the base class, etc. Those checks are effectively part
of generating the destructor definition, and aren't affected by which TU
the check is performed in.

Itanium destroys them in the caller at the end of the full expression,
but MSVC destroys them in the callee. This is further complicated by
the need to emit EH-only destructor cleanups in the caller.
This should help clang compile MSVC's debug iterators more correctly.
There is still an outstanding issue in PR5064 of a memcpy emitted by the
LLVM backend, which is not correct for C++ records.
Fixes PR16226.

While the C++ standard requires that this lookup take place only at the
definition point of a virtual destructor (C++11 [class.dtor]p12), the
Microsoft ABI may require the compiler to emit a deleting destructor
for any virtual destructor declared in the TU, including ones without
a body, requiring an operator delete() lookup for every virtual
destructor declaration. The result of the lookup should be the same
no matter which declaration is used (except in weird corner cases).
This change will cause us to reject some valid TUs in Microsoft ABI
mode, e.g.:
struct A {
void operator delete(void *);
};
struct B {
void operator delete(void *);
};
struct C : A, B {
virtual ~C();
};
As Richard points out, every virtual function declared in a TU
(including this virtual destructor) is odr-used, so it must be defined
in any program which declares it, or the program is ill formed, no
diagnostic required. Because we know that any definition of this
destructor will cause the lookup to fail, the compiler can choose to
issue a diagnostic here.
