This configuration (due to r349207) was intended not to emit any DWO CU,
but a degenerate CU was still being emitted - containing a header and a
DW_TAG_compile_unit with no attributes.
Under that situation, emit nothing to the .dwo file. (since this is a
dynamic property of the input the .dwo file is still emitted, just with
nothing in it (so a valid, but empty, ELF file) - if some other CU
didn't satisfy this criteria, its DWO CU would still go there, etc)

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

Mucking about simplifying a test case ( https://reviews.llvm.org/D55261 ) I stumbled across something I've hit before - that LLVM's (GCC's does too, FWIW) assembly output includes a hardcode length for a DWARF unit in its header. Instead we could emit a label difference - making the assembly easier to read/edit (though potentially at a slight (I haven't tried to observe it) performance cost of delaying/sinking the length computation into the MC layer).
Fix: Predicated all the changes (including creating the labels, even if they aren't used/needed) behind the NVPTX useSectionsAsReferences, avoiding emitting labels in NVPTX where ptxas can't parse them.

In ThinLTO many split CUs may be effectively empty because of the lack
of support for cross-unit references in split DWARF.
Using a split unit in those cases is just a waste/overhead - and turned
out to be one contributor to a significant symbolizer performance issue
when global variable debug info was being imported (see r348416 for the
primary fix) due to symbolizers seeing CUs with no ranges, assuming
there might still be addresses covered and walking into the split CU to
see if there are any ranges (when that split CU was in a DWP file, that
meant loading the DWP and its index, the index was extra large because
of all these fractured/empty CUs... and so was very expensive to load).
(the 3rd fix which will follow, is to assume that a CU with no ranges is
empty rather than merely missing its CU level range data - and to not
walk into its DIEs (split or otherwise) in search of address information
that is generally not present)

BTF is the debug format for BPF, a kernel virtual machine
and widely used for tracing, networking and security, etc ([1]).
Currently only instruction streams are passed to kernel,
the kernel verifier verifies them before execution. In order to
provide better visibility of bpf programs to user space
tools, some debug information, e.g., function names and
debug line information are desirable for kernel so tools
can get such information with better annotation
for jited instructions for performance or other reasons.
The dwarf is too complicated in kernel and for BPF.
Hence, BTF is designed to be the debug format for BPF ([2]).
Right now, pahole supports BTF for types, which
are generated based on dwarf sections in the ELF file.
In order to annotate performance metrics for jited bpf insns,
it is necessary to pass debug line info to the kernel.
Furthermore, we want to pass the actual code to the
kernel because of the following reasons:
. bpf program typically is small so storage overhead
should be small.
. in bpf land, it is totally possible that
an application loads the bpf program into the
kernel and then that application quits, so
holding debug info by the user space application
is not practical.
. having source codes directly kept by kernel
would ease deployment since the original source
code does not need ship on every hosts and
kernel-devel package does not need to be
deployed even if kernel headers are used.
The only reliable time to get the source code is
during compilation time. This will result in both more
accurate information and easier deployment as
stated in the above.
Another consideration is for JIT. The project like bcc
use MCJIT to compile a C program into bpf insns and
load them to the kernel ([3]). The generated BTF sections
will be readily available for such cases as well.
This patch implemented generation of BTF info in llvm
compiler. The BTF related sections will be generated
when both -target bpf and -g are specified. Two sections
are generated:
.BTF contains all the type and string information, and
.BTF.ext contains the func_info and line_info.
The separation is related to how two sections are used
differently in bpf loader, e.g., linux libbpf ([4]).
The .BTF section can be loaded into the kernel directly
while .BTF.ext needs loader manipulation before loading
to the kernel. The format of the each section is roughly
defined in llvm:include/llvm/MC/MCBTFContext.h and
from the implementation in llvm:lib/MC/MCBTFContext.cpp.
A later example also shows the contents in each section.
The type and func_info are gathered during CodeGen/AsmPrinter
by traversing dwarf debug_info. The line_info is
gathered in MCObjectStreamer before writing to
the object file. After all the information is gathered,
the two sections are emitted in MCObjectStreamer::finishImpl.
With cmake CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug, the compiler can
dump out all the tables except insn offset, which
will be resolved later as relocation records.
The debug type "btf" is used for BTFContext dump.
Dwarf tests the debug info generation with
llvm-dwarfdump to decode the binary sections and
check whether the result is expected. Currently
we do not have such a tool yet. We will implement
btf dump functionality in bpftool ([5]) as the bpftool is
considered the recommended tool for bpf introspection.
The implementation for type and func_info is tested
with linux kernel test cases. The line_info is visually
checked with dump from linux kernel libbpf ([4]) and
checked with readelf dumping section raw data.
Note that the .BTF and .BTF.ext information will not
be emitted to assembly code and there is no assembler
support for BTF either.

We will collect label information from DBG_LABEL. Before every DBG_LABEL,
we will generate a temporary symbol to denote the location of the label.
The symbol could be used to get DW_AT_low_pc afterwards. So, we create a

The DBG_LABEL in the mapping is used to query the symbol before it.
The AbstractLabels in DwarfCompileUnit is used to process labels in inlined

Previous version of this patch failed on darwin targets because of
different handling of cross-debug-section relocations. This fixes the
tests to emit the DW_AT_str_offsets_base attribute correctly in both
cases. Since doing this is a non-trivial amount of code, and I'm going
to need it in more than one test, I've added a helper function to the
dwarfgen DIE class to do it.
Original commit message follows:
The motivation for this is D49493, where we'd like to test details of
debug_str_offsets behavior which is difficult to trigger from a
traditional test.
This adds the plubming necessary for dwarfgen to generate this section.
The more interesting changes are:
- I've moved emitStringOffsetsTableHeader function from DwarfFile to
DwarfStringPool, so I can generate the section header more easily from
the unit test.
- added a new addAttribute overload taking an MCExpr*. This is used to
generate the DW_AT_str_offsets_base, which links a compile unit to the
offset table.
I've also added a basic test for reading and writing DW_form_strx forms.

This recommits r337910 after fixing an "ambiguous call to addAttribute"
error with some compilers (gcc circa 4.9 and MSVC). It seems that these
compilers will consider a "false -> pointer" conversion during overload
resolution. This creates ambiguity because one I added an overload which
takes a MCExpr * as an argument.
I fix this by making the new overload take MCExpr&, which avoids the
conversion. It also documents the fact that we expect a valid MCExpr
object.

The only tests we have for the DWARF parser are the tests that use llvm-dwarfdump and expect output from textual dumps.
More DWARF parser modification are coming in the next few weeks and I wanted to add tests that can verify that we can encode and decode all form types, as well as test some other basic DWARF APIs where we ask DIE objects for their children and siblings.
DwarfGenerator.cpp was added in the lib/CodeGen directory. This file contains the code necessary to easily create DWARF for tests:

This code is backed by the AsmPrinter code that emits DWARF for the actual compiler.
While adding unit tests it was discovered that DIEValue that used DIEEntry as their values had bugs where DW_FORM_ref1, DW_FORM_ref2, DW_FORM_ref8, and DW_FORM_ref_udata forms were not supported. These are all now supported. Added support for DW_FORM_string so we can emit inlined C strings.
Centralized the code to unique abbreviations into a new DIEAbbrevSet class and made both the dwarfgen::Generator and the llvm::DwarfFile classes use the new class.
Fixed comments in the llvm::DIE class so that the Offset is known to be the compile/type unit offset.
DIEInteger now supports more DW_FORM values.
There are also unit tests that cover:
Encoding and decoding all form types and values

The DIEUnit class represents a compile or type unit and it owns the unit DIE as an instance variable. This allows anyone with a DIE, to get the unit DIE, and then get back to its DIEUnit without adding any new ivars to the DIE class. Why was this needed? The DIE class has an Offset that is always the CU relative DIE offset, not the "offset in debug info section" as was commented in the header file (the comment has been corrected). This is great for performance because most DIE references are compile unit relative and this means most code that accessed the DIE's offset didn't need to make it into a compile unit relative offset because it already was. When we needed to emit a DW_FORM_ref_addr though, we needed to find the absolute offset of the DIE by finding the DIE's compile/type unit. This class did have the absolute debug info/type offset and could be added to the CU relative offset to compute the absolute offset. With this change we can easily get back to a DIE's DIEUnit which will have this needed offset. Prior to this is required having a DwarfDebug and required calling:
DwarfCompileUnit *DwarfDebug::lookupUnit(const DIE *CU) const;
Now we can use the DIEUnit class to do so without needing DwarfDebug. All clients now use DIEUnit objects (the DwarfDebug stack and the DwarfLinker). A follow on patch for the DWARF generator will also take advantage of this.

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

In one benchmark carried out against Chromium's 50 largest (by bitcode

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

Chromium translation units with split DWARF both disabled and enabled, and

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%.

Stop storing a `DIEAbbrev` in `DIE`, since the data fits neatly inside

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.)
(I'm looking at `llc` memory usage on `verify-uselistorder.lto.opt.bc`;
see r236629 for details.)

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.

This starts merging MCSection and MCSectionData.
There are a few issues with the current split between MCSection and
MCSectionData.
* It optimizes the the not as important case. We want the production
of .o files to be really fast, but the split puts the information used
for .o emission in a separate data structure.
* The ELF/COFF/MachO hierarchy is not represented in MCSectionData,
leading to some ad-hoc ways to represent the various flags.
* It makes it harder to remember where each item is.
The attached patch starts merging the two by moving the alignment from
MCSectionData to MCSection.
Most of the patch is actually just dropping 'const', since
MCSectionData is mutable, but MCSection was not.

Finish off PR23080 by renaming the debug info IR constructs from `MD*`
to `DI*`. The last of the `DIDescriptor` classes were deleted in
r235356, and the last of the related typedefs removed in r235413, so
this has all baked for about a week.
Note: If you have out-of-tree code (like a frontend), I recommend that
you get everything compiling and tests passing with the *previous*
commit before updating to this one. It'll be easier to keep track of
what code is using the `DIDescriptor` hierarchy and what you've already
updated, and I think you're extremely unlikely to insert bugs. YMMV of
course.
Back to *this* commit: I did this using the rename-md-di-nodes.sh
upgrade script I've attached to PR23080 (both code and testcases) and
filtered through clang-format-diff.py. I edited the tests for
test/Assembler/invalid-generic-debug-node-*.ll by hand since the columns
were off-by-three. It should work on your out-of-tree testcases (and
code, if you've followed the advice in the previous paragraph).
Some of the tests are in badly named files now (e.g.,
test/Assembler/invalid-mdcompositetype-missing-tag.ll should be
'dicompositetype'); I'll come back and move the files in a follow-up
commit.

Gut all the non-pointer API from the variable wrappers, except an
implicit conversion from `DIGlobalVariable` to `DIDescriptor`. Note
that if you're updating out-of-tree code, `DIVariable` wraps
`MDLocalVariable` (`MDVariable` is a common base class shared with
`MDGlobalVariable`).

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.
