Summary: Surface counter overflow when merging profile data. Merging still occurs on overflow but counts saturate to the maximum representable value. Overflow is reported to the user.

Summary:
Adds support for in-memory round-trip of sample profile data along with basic
round trip unit tests. This will also make it easier to include unit tests for
future changes to sample profiling.

Summary:
This change addresses two possible instances of user error / confusion when
merging sampled profile data.
Previously any input that didn't match the raw or processed instrumented format
would automatically be interpreted as instrumented profile text format data.
No error would be reported during the merge.
Example:
If foo-sampled.profdata and bar-sampled.profdata are binary sampled profiles:
Old behavior:
$ llvm-profdata merge foo-sampled.profdata bar-sampled.profdata -output foobar-sampled.profdata
$ llvm-profdata show -sample foobar-sampled.profdata
error: foobar-sampled.profdata:1: Expected 'mangled_name:NUM:NUM', found lprofi
This change adds basic checks for valid input data when assuming text input.
It also makes error messages related to file format validity more specific about
the assumbed profile data type.
New behavior:
$ llvm-profdata merge foo-sampled.profdata bar-sampled.profdata -o foobar-sampled.profdata
error: foo.profdata: Unrecognized instrumentation profile encoding format
Perhaps you forgot to use the -sample option?

In some cases (as illustrated in the unittest), lineno can be less than the heade_lineno because the function body are included from some other files. In this case, offset will be negative. This patch makes clang still able to match the profile to IR in this situation.

The number of samples collected at the head of a function only make
sense for top-level functions (i.e., those actually called as opposed to
being inlined inside another).
Head samples essentially count the time spent inside the function's
prologue. This clearly doesn't make sense for inlined functions, so we
were always emitting 0 in those.
llvm-svn: 250539
This adjusts all integers in the reader/writer to reflect the types
stored on profile files. They should all be unsigned 32-bit or 64-bit
values. Changed all associated internal types to be uint32_t or
uint64_t.
The only place that needed some adjustments is in the sample profile
transformation. Altough the weight read from the profile are 64-bit
values, the internal API for branch weights only accepts 32-bit values.
The pass now saturates weights that overflow uint32_t.

This adds documentation for the binary profile encoding and moves the
documentation for the text encoding into the header file
SampleProfReader.h.
llvm-svn: 250309
Binary encoded profiles used to encode all function names inline at
every reference. This is clearly suboptimal in terms of space. This
patch fixes this by adding a name table to the header of the file.
llvm-svn: 250241
With this patch we can now read and write inline stacks in sample
profiles to the binary encoded profiles.
In a subsequent patch, I will add a string table to the binary encoding.
Right now function names are emitted as strings every time we find them.
This is too bloated and will produce large files in applications with
lots of inlining.
llvm-svn: 249861
This fixes memory allocation problems by making the merge operation keep
the profile readers around until the merged profile has been emitted.
This is needed to prevent the inlined function names to disappear from
the function profiles. Since all the names are kept as references, once
the reader disappears, the names are also deallocated.
Additionally, XFAIL on big-endian architectures. The test case uses a
gcov file generated on a little-endian system.

This patch adds support for reading sample profiles with inline stacks.
Inline stacks in a profile are generated when the sampled binary has
samples in inlined functions.
For instance, if main() calls foo() and foo() calls bar(), and bar() is
inlined into foo() and foo() inlined into main(), the profile may look
something like:
main total:364084 head:0
[ ... ]
2.3: _Z3fool total:243786
1: 60149
1.2: 38568
1.4: 46511
1.7: _Z3bari total:98558
1.1: 52672
1.2: 45886
At line 2, discriminator 3, main() calls foo(). In turn, foo() calls
bar() at line 1, discriminator 7.
In the textual format, this stacking of inline calls is represented
with indentation.
With this change, LLVM can now read sample profile files generated by
the create_gcov tool from https://github.com/google/autofdo.

Given the work we are doing on ThinLTO, we will never need to support
module groups and working sets in GCC's implementation of LIPO. These
are currently dead code, and will continue to be so.
llvm-svn: 249351
This adds enough machinery to support reading simple GCC AutoFDO
profiles. It now supports reading flat profiles (no function calls).
Subsequent patches will add support for:
- Inlined calls (in particular, the inline call stack is not traversed
to accumulate samples).
- Working sets and modules. These are used mostly for GCC's LIPO
optimizations, so they're not needed in LLVM atm. I'm not sure that
we will ever need them. For now, I've if0'd around the calls.
The patch also adds support in GCOV.h for gcov version V704 (generated
by GCC's profile conversion tool).
llvm-svn: 247874
Summary:
This patch extends the 'show' and 'merge' commands in llvm-profdata to handle
sample PGO formats. Using the 'merge' command it is now possible to convert
one sample PGO format to another.
The only format that is currently not working is 'gcc'. I still need to
implement support for it in lib/ProfileData.
The changes in the sample profile support classes are needed for the
merge operation.

Summary:
This patch finishes up support for handling sampling profiles in both
text and binary formats. The new binary format uses uleb128 encoding to
represent numeric values. This makes profiles files about 25% smaller.
The profile writer class can write profiles in the existing text and the
new binary format. In subsequent patches, I will add the capability to
read (and perhaps write) profiles in the gcov format used by GCC.
Additionally, I will be adding support in llvm-profdata to manipulate
sampling profiles.
There was a bit of refactoring needed to separate some code that was in
the reader files, but is actually common to both the reader and writer.
The new test checks that reading the same profile encoded as text or
raw, produces the same results.

It isn't always useful to skip blank lines, as evidenced by the
somewhat awkward use of line_iterator in llvm-cov. This adds a knob to
control whether or not to skip blanks.
llvm-svn: 217960
Summary:
This patch moves the profile reading logic out of the Sample Profile
transformation into a generic profile reader facility in
lib/ProfileData.
The intent is to use this new reader to implement a sample profile
reader/writer that can be used to convert sample profiles from external
sources into LLVM.
This first patch introduces no functional changes. It moves the profile
reading code from lib/Transforms/SampleProfile.cpp into
lib/ProfileData/SampleProfReader.cpp.
In subsequent patches I will:
- Add a bitcode format for sample profiles to allow for more efficient
encoding of the profile.
- Add a writer for both text and bitcode format profiles.
- Add a 'convert' command to llvm-profdata to be able to convert between
the two (and serve as entry point for other sample profile formats).
