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 latest linux kernel ([6]) can already support .BTF with type information.
The [7] has the reference implementation in linux kernel side
to support .BTF.ext func_info. The .BTF.ext line_info support is not
implemented yet. If you have difficulty accessing [6], you can
manually do the following to access the code:
git clone https://github.com/yonghong-song/bpf-next-linux.git
cd bpf-next-linux
git checkout btf
The change will push to linux kernel soon once this patch is landed.

I am experimenting with a single split dwarf (.dwo sections in .o files).
I want to make linker to ignore .dwo sections in .o, for that I am trying to add
SHF_EXCLUDE flag ("E") for them in my asm sample.
I found that currently, it is impossible to add any flag for debug sections using llvm-mc.
That happens because we have a set of predefined unique sections created early with default flags:
https://github.com/llvm-mirror/llvm/blob/master/lib/MC/MCObjectFileInfo.cpp#L391
This patch allows a user to add any flags he wants.
I had to edit TargetLoweringObjectFileImpl.cpp to set MetaData type for debug sections.
Their kind was Data by default (so they were allocatable) and so after changes introduced by
this patch the SHF_ALLOC flag was applied for them, what does not make sense for debug sections.
One of OrcJITTests tests failed because of that.

Now that we create the label at the point of the directive, we don't
need to set the "current CV location", and then later when we emit the
next instruction, create a label for it and emit it.
DWARF still defers the labels used in .debug_loc until the next
instruction or value, for reasons unknown.

AT_NAME was being emitted before the directory paths were remapped. This
ensures that all paths are remapped before anything is emitted.
An additional test case has been added.
Note that this only works if the replacement string is an absolute path.
If not, then AT_decl_file believes the new path is a relative path, and
joins that path with the compilation directory. I do not know of a good
way to resolve this.

I did this a long time ago with a janky python script, but now
clang-format has built-in support for this. I fed clang-format every
line with a #include and let it re-sort things according to the precise
LLVM rules for include ordering baked into clang-format these days.
I've reverted a number of files where the results of sorting includes
isn't healthy. Either places where we have legacy code relying on
particular include ordering (where possible, I'll fix these separately)
or where we have particular formatting around #include lines that
I didn't want to disturb in this patch.
This patch is *entirely* mechanical. If you get merge conflicts or
anything, just ignore the changes in this patch and run clang-format
over your #include lines in the files.
Sorry for any noise here, but it is important to keep these things
stable. I was seeing an increasing number of patches with irrelevant
re-ordering of #include lines because clang-format was used. This patch
at least isolates that churn, makes it easy to skip when resolving
conflicts, and gets us to a clean baseline (again).

Fixed test.
Summary:
Enables source location in diagnostic messages from the backend. This
is after parsing, during finalization. This requires the SourceMgr, the
inline assembly string buffer, and DiagInfo to still be alive after
EmitInlineAsm returns.
This patch creates a single SourceMgr for inline assembly inside the
AsmPrinter. MCContext gets a pointer to this SourceMgr. Using one
SourceMgr per call to EmitInlineAsm would make it difficult for
MCContext to figure out in which SourceMgr the SMLoc is located, while a
single SourceMgr can figure it out if it has multiple buffers.
The Str argument to EmitInlineAsm is copied into a buffer and owned by
the inline asm SourceMgr. This ensures that DiagHandlers won't print
garbage. (Clang emits a "note: instantiated into assembly here", which
refers to this string.)
The AsmParser gets destroyed before finalization, which means that the
DiagHandlers the AsmParser installs into the SourceMgr will be stale.
Restore the saved DiagHandlers.
Since now we're using just one SourceMgr for multiple inline asm
strings, we need to tell the AsmParser which buffer it needs to parse
currently. Hand a buffer id -- returned from SourceMgr::
AddNewSourceBuffer -- to the AsmParser.

On ELF every section can have a corresponding section symbol. When in
an assembly file we have
.quad .text
the '.text' refers to that symbol.
The way we used to handle them is to leave .text an undefined symbol
until the very end when the object writer would map them to the
actual section symbol.
The problem with that is that anything before the end would see an
undefined symbol. This could result in bad diagnostics
(test/MC/AArch64/label-arithmetic-diags-elf.s), or incorrect results
when using the asm streamer (est/MC/Mips/expansion-jal-sym-pic.s).
Fixing this will also allow using the section symbol earlier for
setting sh_link of SHF_METADATA sections.
This patch includes a few hacks to avoid changing our behaviour when
handling conflicts between section symbols and other symbols. I
reported pr31850 to track that.

This implements execute-only support for ARM code generation, which
prevents the compiler from generating data accesses to code sections.
The following changes are involved:
* Add the CodeGen option "-arm-execute-only" to the ARM code generator.
* Add the clang flag "-mexecute-only" as well as the GCC-compatible
alias "-mpure-code" to enable this option.
* When enabled, literal pools are replaced with MOVW/MOVT instructions,
with VMOV used in addition for floating-point literals. As the MOVT
instruction is required, execute-only support is only available in
Thumb mode for targets supporting ARMv8-M baseline or Thumb2.
* Jump tables are placed in data sections when in execute-only mode.
* The execute-only text section is assigned section ID 0, and is
marked as unreadable with the SHF_ARM_PURECODE flag with symbol 'y'.
This also overrides selection of ELF sections for globals.

Summary:
This adds a unique ID to the COFF section uniquing map, similar to the
one we have for ELF. The unique id is not currently exposed via the
assembler because we don't have a use case for it yet. Users generally
create .pdata with the .seh_* family of directives, and the assembler
internally needs to produce .pdata and .xdata sections corresponding to
the code section.
The association between .text sections and the assembler-created .xdata
and .pdata sections is maintained as an ID field of MCSectionCOFF. The
CFI-related sections are created with the given unique ID, so if more
code is added to the same text section, we can find and reuse the CFI
sections that were already created.

MCContext shouldn't be accessing the filesystem - that's a gross
layering violation and makes it awkward to use as a library or in a
daemon where it may not even be allowed filesystem access.
The CWD lookup here is normally redundant anyway, since the calling
context either also looks up the CWD or sets this to something more
specific. Here, we fix up the one caller that doesn't already set up a
debug compilation dir and make it clear that the responsibility for
such set up is in the users of MCContext.

llvm-svn: 259126
Adds a new family of .cv_* directives to LLVM's variant of GAS syntax:
- .cv_file: Similar to DWARF .file directives
- .cv_loc: Similar to the DWARF .loc directive, but starts with a
function id. CodeView line tables are emitted by function instead of
by compilation unit, so we needed an extra field to communicate this.
Rather than overloading the .loc direction further, we decided it was
better to have our own directive.
- .cv_stringtable: Emits the codeview string table at the current
position. Currently this just contains the filenames as
null-terminated strings.
- .cv_filechecksums: Emits the file checksum table for all files used
with .cv_file so far. There is currently no support for emitting
actual checksums, just filenames.
This moves the line table emission code down into the assembler. This
is in preparation for implementing the inlined call site line table
format. The inline line table format encoding algorithm requires knowing
the absolute code offsets, so it must run after the assembler has laid
out the code.
David Majnemer collaborated on this patch.
