Summary:
This patch improves thinlto importer
by importing 3x larger functions that are called from hot block.
I compared performance with the trunk on spec, and there
were about 2% on povray and 3.33% on milc. These results seems
to be consistant and match the results Teresa got with her simple
heuristic. Some benchmarks got slower but I think they are just
noisy (mcf, xalancbmki, omnetpp)- running the benchmarks again with
more iterations to confirm. Geomean of all benchmarks including the noisy ones
were about +0.02%.
I see much better improvement on google branch with Easwaran patch
for pgo callsite inlining (the inliner actually inline those big functions)
Over all I see +0.5% improvement, and I get +8.65% on povray.
So I guess we will see much bigger change when Easwaran patch will land
(it depends on new pass manager), but it is still worth putting this to trunk
before it.
Implementation details changes:
- Removed CallsiteCount.
- ProfileCount got replaced by Hotness
- hot-import-multiplier is set to 3.0 for now,
didn't have time to tune it up, but I see that we get most of the interesting
functions with 3, so there is no much performance difference with higher, and
binary size doesn't grow as much as with 10.0.

The NativeObjectOutput class has a design problem: it mixes up the caching
policy with the interface for output streams, which makes the client-side
code hard to follow and would for example make it harder to replace the
cache implementation in an arbitrary client.
This change separates the two aspects by moving the caching policy
to a separate field in Config, replacing NativeObjectOutput with a
NativeObjectStream class which only deals with streams and does not need to
be overridden by most clients and introducing an AddFile callback for adding
files (e.g. from the cache) to the link.

With the new LTO API in r278338, we stopped emitting the individual
index files and imports files for some modules in the distributed backend
case (thinlto-index-only plugin option).
Specifically, this is when the linker decides not to include a module in the
link, because it was in an archive library and did not have a strong
reference to it. Not creating the expected output files makes the
distributed build system implementation more difficult, in terms of
checking for the expected outputs of the thin link, and scheduling the
backend jobs. To address this, the gold-plugin will write dummy empty
.thinlto.bc and .imports files for modules not included in the link
(which LTO never sees).
Augmented a gold v1.12+ test, since that version of gold has the handling
for notifying on modules not being included in the link.
llvm-svn: 282100
Summary:
Emit an empty summary section, instead of no summary section, when
there are no global variables in the index. This ensures that LTO
will treat these files as ThinLTO inputs, instead of as regular
LTO inputs.
In addition to not being what the user likely intended when
compiling with -flto=thin, the current behavior is problematic for
distributed build systems that expect to get ThinLTO index and imports
files back for each input compiled with -flto=thin. Combining into
a single regular LTO module also reduces the backend parallelism.
And in the case where the index was suppressed due to uses in
inline assembly, combining into a single LTO module could provoke
renaming of duplicates that we were trying to prevent by suppressing
the index.
This change required a couple of fixes to handle the empty summary
section.

Summary:
In runThinLTO we start the task numbering for ThinLTO backend
tasks depending on whether there was also a regular LTO object
(CombinedModule). However, the CombinedModule is moved at
the end of runRegularLTO, so we need to save this information and
pass it into runThinLTO. Otherwise the AddOutput callback to the client
will use the same task number for both the regular LTO object
and the first ThinLTO object, which in gold-plugin caused only
one to be end up in the output filename array and therefore passed
back to gold for the final native link.

Previously the prevailing information was not honored, and commons
symbols could override a strong definition. This patch fixes it and
propose the following semantic for commons: the client should mark
as prevailing the commons that it expects the LTO implementation to
merge (i.e. take the maximum size and alignment).
It implies that commons are allowed to have multiple prevailing
definitions.

Summary:
This addresses a regression in common handling from the new LTO
API in r278338. Only create a new common if the size is different.
The type comparison against an array type fails when the size is
different but not an array. GlobalMerge does not handle the
array types as well and we lose some global merging opportunities.

For gold-plugin we can simply pass this file back to gold directly,
which avoids expensive writing of a separate tmp file. Ensure
the cache entry is not deleted on cleanup by adjusting the setting
of the IsTemporary flags.

An important performance setting on the LLVMContext for LTO is
enableDebugTypeODRUniquing(), this adds an automatic merging of

directly produce the index as the value type result.
This requires making the index movable which is straightforward. It
greatly simplifies things by allowing us to completely avoid the builder
API and the layers of abstraction inherent there. Instead both pass
managers can directly construct these when run by value. They still
won't be constructed truly eagerly thanks to the optional in the legacy
PM. The code that directly builds the index can also just share a direct
function.
A notable change here is that the result type of the analysis for the
new PM is no longer a reference type. This was really problematic when
making changes to how we handle result types to make our interface
requirements *much* more strict and precise. But I think this is an
overall improvement.

Resolution-based LTO API.
Summary:
This introduces a resolution-based LTO API. The main advantage of this API over
existing APIs is that it allows the linker to supply a resolution for each
symbol in each object, rather than the combined object as a whole. This will
become increasingly important for use cases such as ThinLTO which require us
to process symbol resolutions in a more complicated way than just adjusting
linkage.

Address review comments
llvm-svn: 278330
We currently do not touch a symbol's linkage in the case where a definition
has a single copy. However, this code is effectively unnecessary: either
the definition is not exported, in which case the internalize phase sets
its linkage to internal, or it is exported, in which case we need to promote
linkage to weak. Those two cases are already handled by existing code.
I believe that the only real functional change here is in the case where we
have a single definition which does not prevail (e.g. because the definition
in a native object file prevails). In that case we now lower linkage to
available_externally following the existing code path for that case.
As a result we can remove the isExported function parameter from the
thinLTOResolveWeakForLinkerInIndex function.

This check is not only unnecessary, it can produce the wrong result. If we

Below are my super rough notes when porting. They can probably serve as
a basic guide for porting other passes to the new PM. As I port more
passes I'll expand and generalize this and make a proper
docs/HowToPortToNewPassManager.rst document. There is also missing
documentation for general concepts and API's in the new PM which will
require some documentation.
Once there is proper documentation in place we can put up a list of
passes that have to be ported and game-ify/crowdsource the rest of the
porting (at least of the middle end; the backend is still unclear).
I will however be taking personal responsibility for ensuring that the
LLD/ELF LTO pipeline is ported in a timely fashion. The remaining passes
to be ported are (do something like
`git grep "<the string in the bullet point below>"` to find the pass):
General Scalar:
[ ] Simplify the CFG
[ ] Jump Threading
[ ] MemCpy Optimization
[ ] Promote Memory to Register
[ ] MergedLoadStoreMotion
[ ] Lazy Value Information Analysis
General IPO:
[ ] Dead Argument Elimination
[ ] Deduce function attributes in RPO
Loop stuff / vectorization stuff:
[ ] Alignment from assumptions
[ ] Canonicalize natural loops
[ ] Delete dead loops
[ ] Loop Access Analysis
[ ] Loop Invariant Code Motion
[ ] Loop Vectorization
[ ] SLP Vectorizer
[ ] Unroll loops
Devirtualization / CFI:
[ ] Cross-DSO CFI
[ ] Whole program devirtualization
[ ] Lower bitset metadata
CGSCC passes:
[ ] Function Integration/Inlining
[ ] Remove unused exception handling info
[ ] Promote 'by reference' arguments to scalars
Please let me know if you are interested in working on any of the passes
in the above list (e.g. reply to the post-commit thread for this patch).
I'll probably be tackling "General Scalar" and "General IPO" first FWIW.
Steps as I port "Deduce function attributes in RPO"
---------------------------------------------------
(note: if you are doing any work based on these notes, please leave a
note in the post-commit review thread for this commit with any
improvements / suggestions / incompleteness you ran into!)
Note: "Deduce function attributes in RPO" is a module pass.
1. Do preparatory refactoring.
Do preparatory factoring. In this case all I had to do was to pull out a static helper (r272503).
(TODO: give more advice here e.g. if pass holds state or something)
2. Rename the old pass class.
llvm/lib/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.cpp
Rename class ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrs -> ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsLegacyPass
in preparation for adding a class ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrs as the pass in the new PM.
(edit: actually wait what? The new class name will be
ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass, so it doesn't conflict. So this step is
sort of useless churn).
llvm/include/llvm/InitializePasses.h
llvm/lib/LTO/LTOCodeGenerator.cpp
llvm/lib/Transforms/IPO/IPO.cpp
llvm/lib/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.cpp
Rename initializeReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass -> initializeReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsLegacyPassPass
(note that the "PassPass" thing falls out of `s/ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrs/ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsLegacyPass/`)
Note that the INITIALIZE_PASS macro is what creates this identifier name, so renaming the class requires this renaming too.
Note that createReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass does not need to be
renamed since its name is not generated from the class name.
3. Add the new PM pass class.
In the new PM all passes need to have their
declaration in a header somewhere, so you will often need to add a header.
In this case
llvm/include/llvm/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.h is already there because
PostOrderFunctionAttrsPass was already ported.
The file-level comment from the .cpp file can be used as the file-level
comment for the new header. You may want to tweak the wording slightly
from "this file implements" to "this file provides" or similar.
Add declaration for the new PM pass in this header:
class ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass
: public PassInfoMixin<ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass> {
public:
PreservedAnalyses run(Module &M, AnalysisManager<Module> &AM);
};
Its name should end with `Pass` for consistency (note that this doesn't
collide with the names of most old PM passes). E.g. call it
`<name of the old PM pass>Pass`.
Also, move the doxygen comment from the old PM pass to the declaration of
this class in the header.
Also, include the declaration for the new PM class
`llvm/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.h` at the top of the file (in this case,
it was already done when the other pass in this file was ported).
Now define the `run` method for the new class.
The main things here are:
a) Use AM.getResult<...>(M) to get results instead of `getAnalysis<...>()`
b) If the old PM pass would have returned "false" (i.e. `Changed ==
false`), then you should return PreservedAnalyses::all();
c) In the old PM getAnalysisUsage method, observe the calls
`AU.addPreserved<...>();`.
In the case `Changed == true`, for each preserved analysis you should do
call `PA.preserve<...>()` on a PreservedAnalyses object and return it.
E.g.:
PreservedAnalyses PA;
PA.preserve<CallGraphAnalysis>();
return PA;
Note that calls to skipModule/skipFunction are not supported in the new PM
currently, so optnone and optimization bisect support do not work. You can
just drop those calls for now.
4. Add the pass to the new PM pass registry to make it available in opt.
In llvm/lib/Passes/PassBuilder.cpp add a #include for your header.
`#include "llvm/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.h"`
In this case there is already an include (from when
PostOrderFunctionAttrsPass was ported).
Add your pass to llvm/lib/Passes/PassRegistry.def
In this case, I added
`MODULE_PASS("rpo-functionattrs", ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass())`
The string is from the `INITIALIZE_PASS*` macros used in the old pass
manager.
Then choose a test that uses the pass and use the new PM `-passes=...` to
run it.
E.g. in this case there is a test that does:
; RUN: opt < %s -basicaa -functionattrs -rpo-functionattrs -S | FileCheck %s
I have added the line:
; RUN: opt < %s -aa-pipeline=basic-aa -passes='require<targetlibinfo>,cgscc(function-attrs),rpo-functionattrs' -S | FileCheck %s
The `-aa-pipeline=basic-aa` and
`require<targetlibinfo>,cgscc(function-attrs)` are what is needed to run
functionattrs in the new PM (note that in the new PM "functionattrs"
becomes "function-attrs" for some reason). This is just pulled from
`readattrs.ll` which contains the change from when functionattrs was ported
to the new PM.
Adding rpo-functionattrs causes the pass that was just ported to run.

Summary:
When launching ThinLTO backends in a distributed build (currently
supported in gold via the thinlto-index-only plugin option), emit
an individual index file for each backend process as described here:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2016-April/098272.html
The individual index file encodes the summary and module information
required for implementing the importing/exporting decisions made
for a given module in the thin link step.
This is in place of the current mechanism that uses the combined index
to make importing decisions in each back end independently. It is an
enabler for doing global summary based optimizations in the thin link
step (which will be recorded in the individual index files), and reduces
the size of the index that must be sent to each backend process, and
the amount of work to scan it in the backends.
Rather than create entirely new ModuleSummaryIndex structures (and all
the included unique_ptrs) for each backend index file, a map is created
to record all of the GUID and summary pointers needed for a particular
index file. The IndexBitcodeWriter walks this map instead of the full
index (hiding the details of managing the appropriate summary iteration
in a new iterator subclass). This is more efficient than walking the
entire combined index and filtering out just the needed summaries during
each backend bitcode index write.

If the linker requested to preserve a linkonce function, we should

We explicitely avoid turning them into weak_odr (unlike the first
version of this patch in r267644), because the codegen can be
different on Darwin: because of `llvm::canBeOmittedFromSymbolTable()`

Keeping as much as possible internal/private is

This removes the interfaces added (and not yet complete) to support
lazy reading of summaries. This support is not expected to be needed
since we are moving to a model where the full index is only being
traversed in the thin link step, instead of the back ends.
(The second part of this that I plan to do next is remove the
GlobalValueInfo from the ModuleSummaryIndex - it was mostly needed to
support lazy parsing of summaries. The index can instead reference the
summary structures directly.)

Clients may call writeMergedModules before calling optimize, or call
compileOptimized without calling optimize. Make sure they don't sneak
past the verifier. This adds LTOCodeGenerator::verifyMergedModuleOnce,
and calls it from writeMergedModule, optimize, and codegenOptimized.
I couldn't find a good way to test this. I tried writing broken IR to
send into llvm-lto, but LTOCodeGenerator doesn't understand textual IR,
and assembler runs the verifier itself anyway. Checking in
valid-but-doesn't-verify bitcode here doesn't seem valuable.

Rather than relying on the structural equivalence of DICompositeType to
merge type definitions, use an explicit map on the LLVMContext that
LLParser and BitcodeReader consult when constructing new nodes.
Each non-forward-declaration DICompositeType with a non-empty
'identifier:' field is stored/loaded from the type map, and the first
definiton will "win".
This map is opt-in: clients that expect ODR types from different modules
to be merged must call LLVMContext::ensureDITypeMap.
- Clients that just happen to load more than one Module in the same
LLVMContext won't magically merge types.
- Clients (like LTO) that want to continue to merge types based on ODR
identifiers should opt-in immediately.
I have updated LTOCodeGenerator.cpp, the two "linking" spots in
gold-plugin.cpp, and llvm-link (unless -disable-debug-info-type-map) to
set this.
With this in place, it will be straightforward to remove the DITypeRef
concept (i.e., referencing types by their 'identifier:' string rather
than pointing at them directly).

Summary: For Incremental LTO, we need to make sure that an old
cache entry is not used when incrementally re-linking with a new
libLTO.
Adding a global LLVM_REVISION in llvm-config.h would for to
rebuild/relink the world for every "git pull"/"svn update".
So instead only libLTO is made dependent on the VCS and will
be rebuilt (and the dependent binaries relinked, i.e. as of
today: libLTO.dylib and llvm-lto).

This will save a bunch of copies / initialization of intermediate
datastructure, and (hopefully) simplify the code.
This also abstract the symbol preservation mechanism outside of the
Internalization pass into the client code, which is not forced
to keep a map of strings for instance (ThinLTO will prefere hashes).

llvm-svn: 266163
This is intended to be shared by the ThinLTOCodeGenerator.
Note that there is a change in the way the verifier is run, previously
it was ran as a Pass on the merged module during internalization.
While now the verifier is called explicitely on the merged module
outside of the internalize "pass pipeline".
What remains strange in the API is the fact that `DisableVerify` in
the API does not disable this initial verifier.

Summary:
This is the first step in also serializing the index out to LLVM
assembly.
The per-module summary written to bitcode is moved out of the bitcode
writer and to a new analysis pass (ModuleSummaryIndexWrapperPass).
The pass itself uses a new builder class to compute index, and the
builder class is used directly in places where we don't have a pass
manager (e.g. llvm-as).
Because we are computing summaries outside of the bitcode writer, we no
longer can use value ids created by the bitcode writer's
ValueEnumerator. This required changing the reference graph edge type
to use a new ValueInfo class holding a union between a GUID (combined
index) and Value* (permodule index). The Value* are converted to the
appropriate value ID during bitcode writing.
Also, this enables removal of the BitWriter library's dependence on the
Analysis library that was previously required for the summary computation.

These function can be dropped by the compiler if they are no longer
referenced in the current module. However there is a change that
another module is still referencing them because of the import.
Multiple solutions can be used:
- Always import LinkOnce when a caller is imported. This ensure that
every module with a call to a LinkOnce has the definition and will
be able to emit it if it emits the call.
- Turn the LinkOnce into Weak, so that it is always emitted.
- Turn all LinkOnce into available_externally and come back after all
modules are codegen'ed to emit only one copy of the linkonce, when
there is still a reference to it.
This patch implement the second option, with am optimization that
only *one* module will turn the LinkOnce into Weak, while the others
will turn it into available_externally, so that there is exactly one
copy emitted for the whole compilation.

Summary:
This patch adds support for including a full reference graph including
call graph edges and other GV references in the summary.
The reference graph edges can be used to make importing decisions
without materializing any source modules, can be used in the plugin
to make file staging decisions for distributed build systems, and is
expected to have other uses.
The call graph edges are recorded in each function summary in the
bitcode via a list of <CalleeValueIds, StaticCount> tuples when no PGO
data exists, or <CalleeValueId, StaticCount, ProfileCount> pairs when
there is PGO, where the ValueId can be mapped to the function GUID via
the ValueSymbolTable. In the function index in memory, the call graph
edges reference the target via the CalleeGUID instead of the
CalleeValueId.
The reference graph edges are recorded in each summary record with a
list of referenced value IDs, which can be mapped to value GUID via the
ValueSymbolTable.
Addtionally, a new summary record type is added to record references
from global variable initializers. A number of bitcode records and data
structures have been renamed to reflect the newly expanded scope of the
summary beyond functions. More cleanup will follow.

tests to run GVN in both modes.
This is mostly the boring refactoring just like SROA and other complex
transformation passes. There is some trickiness in that GVN's
ValueNumber class requires hand holding to get to compile cleanly. I'm
open to suggestions about a better pattern there, but I tried several
before settling on this. I was trying to balance my desire to sink as
much implementation detail into the source file as possible without
introducing overly many layers of abstraction.
Much like with SROA, the design of this system is made somewhat more
cumbersome by the need to support both pass managers without duplicating
the significant state and logic of the pass. The same compromise is
struck here.
I've also left a FIXME in a doxygen comment as the GVN pass seems to
have pretty woeful documentation within it. I'd like to submit this with
the FIXME and let those more deeply familiar backfill the information
here now that we have a nice place in an interface to put that kind of
documentaiton.

it will be up to the client creating the LLVMContext to request this
