SUMMARY:
1. in the patch , remove setting storageclass in function .getXCOFFSection and construct function of class MCSectionXCOFF
there are
XCOFF::StorageMappingClass MappingClass;
XCOFF::SymbolType Type;
XCOFF::StorageClass StorageClass;
in the MCSectionXCOFF class,
these attribute only used in the XCOFFObjectWriter, (asm path do not need the StorageClass)
we need get the value of StorageClass, Type,MappingClass before we invoke the getXCOFFSection every time.
actually , we can get the StorageClass of the MCSectionXCOFF from it's delegated symbol.
2. we also change the oprand of branch instruction from symbol name to qualify symbol name.
for example change
bl .foo
extern .foo
to
bl .foo[PR]
extern .foo[PR]
3. and if there is reference indirect call a function bar.
we also add
extern .bar[PR]

Summary:
We create a number of standard types of control sections in multiple places for
things like the function descriptors, external references and the TOC anchor
among others, so it is possible for their properties to be defined
inconsistently in different places. This refactor moves their creation and
properties into functions in the TargetLoweringObjectFile class hierarchy, where
functions for retrieving various special types of sections typically seem
to reside.
Note: There is one case in PPCISelLowering which is specific to function entry
points which we don't address since we don't have access to the TLOF there.

When compiling position-independent executables, we now use
DW_EH_PE_pcrel | DW_EH_PE_sdata4. However, the MIPS ABI does not define a
64-bit PC-relative ELF relocation so we cannot use sdata8 for the large
code model case. When using the large code model, we fall back to the
previous behaviour of generating absolute relocations.
With this change clang-generated .o files can be linked by LLD without
having to pass -Wl,-z,notext (which creates text relocations).
This is simpler than the approach used by ld.bfd, which rewrites the
.eh_frame section to convert absolute relocations into relative references.
I saw in D13104 that apparently ld.bfd did not accept pc-relative relocations
for MIPS ouput at some point. However, I also checked that recent ld.bfd
can process the clang-generated .o files so this no longer seems true.

indirect function calls, using either the check mechanism (X86, ARM, AArch64) or
or the dispatch mechanism (X86-64). The check mechanism requires a new calling
convention for the supported targets. The dispatch mechanism adds the target as
an operand bundle, which is processed by SelectionDAG. Another pass
(CodeGen/CFGuardLongjmp.cpp) identifies and emits valid longjmp targets, as
required by /guard:cf. This feature is enabled using the `cfguard` CC1 option.

This patch adds BPF Debug Format (BTF) as a standalone
LLVM debuginfo. The BTF related sections are directly
generated from IR. The BTF debuginfo is generated
only when the compilation target is BPF.
What is BTF?
============
First, the BPF is a linux kernel virtual machine
and widely used for tracing, networking and security.
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/filter.txthttps://cilium.readthedocs.io/en/v1.2/bpf/
BTF is the debug info format for BPF, introduced in the below
linux patch
69b693f0ae (diff-06fb1c8825f653d7e539058b72c83332)
in the patch set mentioned in the below lwn article.
https://lwn.net/Articles/752047/
The BTF format is specified in the above github commit.
In summary, its layout looks like
struct btf_header
type subsection (a list of types)
string subsection (a list of strings)
With such information, the kernel and the user space is able to
pretty print a particular bpf map key/value. One possible example below:
Withtout BTF:
key: [ 0x01, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00 ]
With BTF:
key: struct t { a : 1; b : 1; c : 0}
where struct is defined as
struct t { char a; char b; short c; };
How BTF is generated?
=====================
Currently, the BTF is generated through pahole.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/pahole/pahole.git/commit/?id=68645f7facc2eb69d0aeb2dd7d2f0cac0feb4d69
and available in pahole v1.12
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/pahole/pahole.git/commit/?id=4a21c5c8db0fcd2a279d067ecfb731596de822d4
Basically, the bpf program needs to be compiled with -g with
dwarf sections generated. The pahole is enhanced such that
a .BTF section can be generated based on dwarf. This format
of the .BTF section matches the format expected by
the kernel, so a bpf loader can just take the .BTF section
and load it into the kernel.
8a138aed4a
The .BTF section layout is also specified in this patch:
with file include/llvm/BinaryFormat/BTF.h.
What use cases this patch tries to address?
===========================================
Currently, only the bpf instruction stream is required to
pass to the kernel. The kernel verifies it, jits it if configured
to do so, attaches it to a particular kernel attachment point,
and later executes when a particular event happens.
This patch tries to expand BTF to support two more use cases below:
(1). BPF supports subroutine calls.
During performance analysis, it would be good to
differentiate which call is hot instead of just
providing a virtual address. This would require to
pass a unique identifier for each subroutine to
the kernel, the subroutine name is a natual choice.
(2). If a particular jitted instruction is hot, we want
user to know which source line this jitted instruction
belongs to. This would require the source information
is available to various profiling tools.
Note that in a single ELF file,
. there may be multiple loadable bpf programs,
. for a particular to-be-loaded bpf instruction stream,
its instructions may come from multiple PROGBITS sections,
the bpf loader needs to merge them together to a single
consecutive insn stream before loading to the kernel.
For example:
section .text: subroutines funcFoo
section _progA: calling funcFoo
section _progB: calling funcFoo
The bpf loader could construct two loadable bpf instruction
streams and load them into the kernel:
. _progA funcFoo
. _progB funcFoo
So per ELF section function offset and instruction offset
will need to be adjusted before passing to the kernel, and
the kernel essentially expect only one code section regardless
of how many in the ELF file.
What do we propose and Why?
===========================
To support the above two use cases, we propose to
add an additional section, .BTF.ext, to the ELF file
which is the input of the bpf loader. A different section
is preferred since loader may need to manipulate it before
loading part of its data to the kernel.
The .BTF.ext section has a similar header to the .BTF section
and it contains two subsections for func_info and line_info.
. the func_info maps the func insn byte offset to a func
type in the .BTF type subsection.
. the line_info maps the insn byte offset to a line info.
. both func_info and line_info subsections are organized
by ELF PROGBITS AX sections.
pahole is not a good place to implement .BTF.ext as
pahole is mostly for structure hole information and more
importantly, we want to pass the actual code to the kernel.
. 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 as you may not even know who
loads this bpf program.
. 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.
LLVM is a good place to implement.
. 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
(https://github.com/iovisor/bcc)
use MCJIT to compile a C program into bpf insns and
load them to the kernel. The llvm generated BTF sections
will be readily available for such cases as well.
Design and implementation of emiting .BTF/.BTF.ext sections
===========================================================
The BTF debuginfo format is defined. Both .BTF and .BTF.ext
sections are generated directly from IR when both
"-target bpf" and "-g" are specified. Note that
dwarf sections are still generated as dwarf is used
by user space tools like llvm-objdump etc. for BPF target.
This patch also contains tests to verify generated
.BTF and .BTF.ext sections for all supported types, func_info
and line_info subsections. The patch is also tested
against linux kernel bpf sample tests and selftests.

transferred to wasm 'catch' instruction by the VM, after which the
personality function is called from the compiler-generated code. (Refer
to WasmEHPrepare pass for more information on this part.)

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.

"The sections that do not require relocation, however, can be written
to the relocatable object (.o) file but ignored by the
the linker or they can be written to a separate DWARF object (.dwo) file
that need not be accessed by the linker."
Nice way to make linker to ignore them is to set SHF_EXCLUDE flag.

The TType encoding, LSDA encoding, and personality encoding are all
passed explicitly by CodeGen to the assembler through .cfi_* directives,
so only the AsmPrinter needs to know about them.
The FDE CFI encoding however, controls the encoding of the label
implicitly created by the .cfi_startproc directive. That directive seems
to be special in that it doesn't take an encoding, so the assembler just
has to know how to encode one DSO-local label reference from .eh_frame
to .text.
As a result, it looks like MC will continue to have to know when the
large code model is in use. Perhaps we could invent a '.cfi_startproc
[large]' flag so that this knowledge doesn't need to pollute the
assembler.

Getting the DWARF types section is only implemented for ELF object
files. We already disabled emitting debug types in clang (r337717), but
now we also report an fatal error (rather than crashing) when trying to
obtain this section in MC. Additionally we ignore the generate debug
types flag for unsupported target triples.
See PR38190 for more information.

There are quite a few if statements that enumerate all these cases. It gets
even worse in our fork of LLVM where we also have a Triple::cheri (which
is mips64 + CHERI instructions) and we had to update all if statements that
check for Triple::mips64 to also handle Triple::cheri. This patch helps to
reduce our diff to upstream and should also make some checks more readable.

With compilation fix.
Original commit message:
D39788 added a '.stack-size' section containing metadata on function stack sizes
to output ELF files behind the new -stack-size-section flag.
This change does following two things on top:
1) Imagine the case when there are -ffunction-sections flag given and there are text sections in COMDATs.
The patch adds a '.stack-size' section into corresponding COMDAT group, so that linker will be able to
eliminate them fast during resolving the COMDATs.
2) Patch sets a SHF_LINK_ORDER flag and links '.stack-size' with the corresponding .text.
With that linker will be able to do -gc-sections on dead stack sizes sections.
