registers.
The goal of this patch is to improve the throughput analysis in llvm-mca for the
case where instructions perform partial register writes.
On x86, partial register writes are quite difficult to model, mainly because
different processors tend to implement different register merging schemes in
hardware.
When the code contains partial register writes, the IPC (instructions per
cycles) estimated by llvm-mca tends to diverge quite significantly from the
observed IPC (using perf).
Modern AMD processors (at least, from Bulldozer onwards) don't rename partial
registers. Quoting Agner Fog's microarchitecture.pdf:
" The processor always keeps the different parts of an integer register together.
For example, AL and AH are not treated as independent by the out-of-order
execution mechanism. An instruction that writes to part of a register will
therefore have a false dependence on any previous write to the same register or
any part of it."
This patch is a first important step towards improving the analysis of partial
register updates. It changes the semantic of RegisterFile descriptors in
tablegen, and teaches llvm-mca how to identify false dependences in the presence
of partial register writes (for more details: see the new code comments in
include/Target/TargetSchedule.h - class RegisterFile).
This patch doesn't address the case where a write to a part of a register is
followed by a read from the whole register. On Intel chips, high8 registers
(AH/BH/CH/DH)) can be stored in separate physical registers. However, a later
(dirty) read of the full register (example: AX/EAX) triggers a merge uOp, which
adds extra latency (and potentially affects the pipe usage).
This is a very interesting article on the subject with a very informative answer
from Peter Cordes:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45660139/how-exactly-do-partial-registers-on-haswell-skylake-perform-writing-al-seems-to
In future, the definition of RegisterFile can be extended with extra information
that may be used to identify delays caused by merge opcodes triggered by a dirty
read of a partial write.

This patch adds support for AArch64 to cfi-verify.
This required three changes to cfi-verify. First, it generalizes checking if an instruction is a trap by adding a new isTrap flag to TableGen (and defining it for x86 and AArch64). Second, the code that ensures that the operand register is not clobbered between the CFI check and the indirect call needs to allow a single dereference (in x86 this happens as part of the jump instruction). Third, we needed to ensure that return instructions are not counted as indirect branches. Technically, returns are indirect branches and can be covered by CFI, but LLVM's forward-edge CFI does not protect them, and x86 does not consider them, so we keep that behavior.
In addition, we had to improve AArch64's code to evaluate the branch target of a MCInst to handle calls where the destination is not the first operand (which it often is not).

Before revision 336728, the "mayLoad" flag for instruction (V)MOVLPSrm was
inferred directly from the "default" pattern associated with the instruction
definition.
r336728 removed special node X86Movlps, and all the patterns associated to it.
Now instruction (V)MOVLPSrm doesn't have a pattern associated to it, and the
'mayLoad/hasSideEffects' flags are left unset.
When the instruction info is emitted by tablegen, method
CodeGenDAGPatterns::InferInstructionFlags() sees that (V)MOVLPSrm doesn't have a
pattern, and flags are undefined. So, it conservatively sets the
"hasSideEffects" flag for it.
As a consequence, we were losing the 'mayLoad' flag, and we were gaining a
'hasSideEffect' flag in its place.
This patch fixes the issue (originally reported by Michael Holmen).
The mca tests show the differences in the instruction info flags. Instructions
that were affected by this problem were: MOVLPSrm/VMOVLPSrm/VMOVLPSZ128rm.

This makes easier to identify changes in the instruction info flags. It also
helps spotting potential regressions similar to the one recently introduced at
r336728.
Using the same character to mark MayLoad/MayStore/HasSideEffects is problematic
for llvm-lit. When pattern matching substrings, llvm-lit consumes tabs and
spaces. A change in position of the flag marker may not trigger a test failure.
This patch only changes the character used for flag `hasSideEffects`. The reason
why I didn't touch other flags is because I want to avoid spamming the mailing
because of the massive diff due to the numerous tests affected by this change.
In future, each instruction flag should be associated with a different character
in the Instruction Info View.

This patch modifies the Scheduler heuristic used to select the next instruction
to issue to the pipelines.
The motivating example is test X86/BtVer2/add-sequence.s, for which llvm-mca
wrongly reported an estimated IPC of 1.50. According to perf, the actual IPC for
that test should have been ~2.00.
It turns out that an IPC of 2.00 for test add-sequence.s cannot possibly be
predicted by a Scheduler that only prioritizes instructions based on their
"age". A similar issue also affected test X86/BtVer2/dependent-pmuld-paddd.s,
for which llvm-mca wrongly estimated an IPC of 0.84 instead of an IPC of 1.00.
Instructions in the ReadyQueue are now ranked based on two factors:
- The "age" of an instruction.
- The number of unique users of writes associated with an instruction.
The new logic still prioritizes older instructions over younger instructions to
minimize the pressure on the reorder buffer. However, the number of users of an
instruction now also affects the overall rank. This potentially increases the
ability of the Scheduler to extract instruction level parallelism. This patch
fixes the problem with the wrong IPC reported for test add-sequence.s and test
dependent-pmuld-paddd.s.

This patch teaches llvm-mca how to identify register writes that implicitly zero
the upper portion of a super-register.
On X86-64, a general purpose register is implemented in hardware as a 64-bit
register. Quoting the Intel 64 Software Developer's Manual: "an update to the
lower 32 bits of a 64 bit integer register is architecturally defined to zero
extend the upper 32 bits". Also, a write to an XMM register performed by an AVX
instruction implicitly zeroes the upper 128 bits of the aliasing YMM register.
This patch adds a new method named clearsSuperRegisters to the MCInstrAnalysis
interface to help identify instructions that implicitly clear the upper portion
of a super-register. The rest of the patch teaches llvm-mca how to use that new
method to obtain the information, and update the register dependencies
accordingly.
I compared the kernels from tests clear-super-register-1.s and
clear-super-register-2.s against the output from perf on btver2. Previously
there was a large discrepancy between the estimated IPC and the measured IPC.
Now the differences are mostly in the noise.

Summary:
This method was not correct for entries in DWO files as it assumed it
could just add up the CU and DIE offsets to get the absolute DIE offset.
This is not correct for the DWO files, as here the CU offset will
reference the skeleton unit, whereas the DIE offset will be the offset
in the full unit in the DWO file.
Unfortunately, this means that we are not able to determine the absolute
DIE offset using the information in the .debug_names section alone,
which means we have to offload some of this work to the users of this
class.
To demonstrate how this can be done, I've added/fixed the ability to
lookup entries using accelerator tables in DWO files in llvm-dwarfdump.
To make this happen, I've needed to make two extra changes in other
classes:
- made the DWARFContext method to lookup a CU based on the section
offset public. I've needed this functionality to lookup a CU, and this
seems like a useful thing in general.
- made DWARFUnit::getDWOId call extractDIEsIfNeeded. Before this, the
DWOId was filled in only if the root DIE happened to be parsed
before we called the accessor. Since the lazy parsing is supposed to
happen under the hood, calling extractDIEsIfNeeded seems appropriate.

Summary:
Both (Apple and DWARF5) implementations of the iterators had bugs which
resulted in crashes if one attempted to iterate through the accelerator
tables all the way.
For the Apple tables, the issue was that we did not clear the DataOffset
field when we reached the end, which made our iterator compare unequal
to the "end" iterator. For the Dwarf5 tables, the problem was that we
incremented the CurrentIndex pointer and then used the incremented
(possibly invalid) pointer to check whether we have reached the end of
the index list.
The reason these bugs went undetected is because their only user
(dwarfdump) only ever searched for the first match. Besides allowing us
to test this fix, changing llvm-dwarfdump --find to display all matches
seems like a good improvement (it makes the behavior consistent with the
--name option), so I change llvm-dwarfdump to do that.
The existing tests would be sufficient to test this fix with the new
llvm-dwarfdump behavior, but I add a special test that demonstrates that
the tool indeed displays multiple results. The find.test test needed to
be tweaked a bit as the tool now does not print the ".debug_info
contents" header (also consistent with how --name works).

Per discussion on the generic-abi mailing list:

An object file manipulation tool must either write out a symbol

on the object file if it has unrecognized sections that are linked

GNU objcopy and ld.{bfd,gold,lld} -r) do not comply with this at
present: they change symbol table indexes and set sh_link to 0 on
the unrecognized symtab-linked sections.

When requesting to dump both the parent chain and children, we used to
print the DIE more than once because we propagated the dump options to
the parent without clearing the respective flags. This commit fixes this
oversight and adds a test.

Previously update_mca_test_checks worked entirely at "block" level where
a block is some sequence of lines delimited by at least one empty line.
This generally worked well, but could sometimes lead to excessive
repetition of check lines for various prefixes if some block was almost
identical between prefixes, but not quite (for example, due to a
different dispatch width in the otherwise identical summary views).
This new analyis attempts to split blocks further in the case where the
following conditions are met:
a) There is some prefix common to every RUN line (typically 'ALL').
b) The first line of the block is common to the output with every prefix.
c) The block has the same number of lines for the output with every prefix.
Also, regenerated all llvm-mca test files with the following command:
update_mca_test_checks.py "../test/tools/llvm-mca/*/*.s" "../test/tools/llvm-mca/*/*/*.s"
The new analysis showed a "multiple lines not disambiguated by prefixes" warning
for test "AArch64/Exynos/scheduler-queue-usage.s" so I've also added some
explicit prefixes to each of the RUN lines in that test.

This patch implements the "block reciprocal throughput" computation in the
SummaryView.
The block reciprocal throughput is computed as the MAX of:
- NumMicroOps / DispatchWidth
- Resource Cycles / #Units (for every resource consumed).
The block throughput is bounded from above by the hardware dispatch throughput.
That is because the DispatchWidth is an upper bound on how many opcodes can be part
of a single dispatch group.
The block throughput is also limited by the amount of hardware parallelism. The
number of available resource units affects how the resource pressure is
distributed, and also how many blocks can be delivered every cycle.

This option just keeps being a problem and really needs to be implemented
in some fashion. Implementing it properly requires some kind of
"replaceSectionReference" method because all the existing links need to be
maintained. The desired behavior is just for allocated sections to become
NOBITS but actually implementing that is rather tricky due to the current
design of llvm-objcopy. However converting allocated sections to NOBITS is
just an optimization and not something debuggers need. Debuggers can debug
a stripped executable and take an unstripped executable for that stripped
executable as input. Additionally allocated sections account for a very
small part of debug binaries so this optimization is quite small. I propose
that for the time being we implement this as a NOP so that people can use
llvm-objcopy where they need to, just in a sub-optimal way.
This option has already blocked a lot of people and its currently blocking me.

Most of the handling is pretty straightforward; fetch the default
memory flags for the specific resource type before parsing the flags
and apply them on top of that, except that some flags imply others
and some flags clear more than one flag.
For icons and cursors, the flags set get passed on to all individual
single icon/cursor resources, while only some flags affect the icon/cursor
group resource.
For stringtables, the behaviour is pretty simple; the first stringtable
resource of a bundle sets the flags for the whole bundle.
The output of these tests match rc.exe byte for byte.
The actual use of these memory flags is deprecated and they have no
effect since Win16, but some resource script files may still happen
to have them in place.

Previously these fields were only read from this header for cursors,
while Planes was hardcoded to 1 for icons (with a comment that it was
unknown why this was needed) and BitCount was left at the value
read originally in the RESDIRENTRY.
This fixes the single byte that was differing for the icon/cursor test
compared to rc.exe.
This is based on research/testing by Nico Weber.

This adds the missing input files used for this test, except for
the separate input files for specific error cases; matching
test input files were provided by Nico Weber.
The extra copying of files into the %t directory doesn't seem to
be necessary since that directory only ever is used for output here,
not for inputs.

Summary:
The .debug_line parser previously reported errors by printing to stderr and
return false. This is not particularly helpful for clients of the library code,
as it prevents them from handling the errors in a manner based on the calling
context. This change switches to using llvm::Error and callbacks to indicate
what problems were detected during parsing, and has updated clients to handle
the errors in a location-specific manner. In general, this means that they
continue to do the same thing to external users. Below, I have outlined what
the known behaviour changes are, relating to this change.
There are two levels of "errors" in the new error mechanism, to broadly
distinguish between different fail states of the parser, since not every
failure will prevent parsing of the unit, or of subsequent unit. Malformed
table errors that prevent reading the remainder of the table (reported by
returning them) and other minor issues representing problems with parsing that
do not prevent attempting to continue reading the table (reported by calling a
specified callback funciton). The only example of this currently is when the
last sequence of a unit is unterminated. However, I think it would be good to
change the handling of unrecognised opcodes to report as minor issues as well,
rather than just printing to the stream if --verbose is used (this would be a
subsequent change however).
I have substantially extended the DwarfGenerator to be able to handle
custom-crafted .debug_line sections, allowing for comprehensive unit-testing
of the parser code. For now, I am just adding unit tests to cover the basic
error reporting, and positive cases, and do not currently intend to test every
part of the parser, although the framework should be sufficient to do so at a
later point.
Known behaviour changes:
- The dump function in DWARFContext now does not attempt to read subsequent
tables when searching for a specific offset, if the unit length field of a
table before the specified offset is a reserved value.
- getOrParseLineTable now returns a useful Error if an invalid offset is
encountered, rather than simply a nullptr.
- The parse functions no longer use `WithColor::warning` directly to report
errors, allowing LLD to call its own warning function.
- The existing parse error messages have been updated to not specifically
include "warning" in their message, allowing consumers to determine what
severity the problem is.
- If the line table version field appears to have a value less than 2, an
informative error is returned, instead of just false.
- If the line table unit length field uses a reserved value, an informative
error is returned, instead of just false.
- Dumping of .debug_line.dwo sections is now implemented the same as regular
.debug_line sections.
- Verbose dumping of .debug_line[.dwo] sections now prints the prologue, if
there is a prologue error, just like non-verbose dumping.
As a helper for the generator code, I have re-added emitInt64 to the
AsmPrinter code. This previously existed, but was removed way back in r100296,
presumably because it was dead at the time.
This change also requires a change to LLD, which will be committed separately.
