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.

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.

header to its own header, allowing users of fragments to have a narrower
header file, and avoid circular header dependencies when getting the
definition of MCSection prior to inspecting traits on MCSection
pointers.
This is part of a series of patches to allow LLVM to check for complete
pointee types when computing its pointer traits. This is absolutely
necessary to get correct (or reproducible) results for things like how
many low bits are guaranteed to be zero.
Note that this doesn't in any way change the design of MC, it is just
moving code around to allow the *header files* to be more fine grained.
Without this, it is impossible to get a complete type for MCSection
where it is needed.
If anyone would prefer a different slicing of the header files, I'm
happy to oblige of course. =]

`MCSchedModel` is large. Make `MCSchedModel::GetDefaultSchedModel()`
return by-reference instead of by-value, so we can store a pointer in
`MCSubtargetInfo::CPUSchedModel` instead of a copy.
Note: since `MCSchedModel` is POD, this doesn't create a static

The code is buggy and barely tested. It is also mostly boilerplate.
(This includes MCObjectDisassembler, which is the interface to that
functionality)
Following an IRC discussion with Jim Grosbach, it seems sensible to just
nuke the whole lot of functionality, and dig it up from VCS if
necessary (I hope not!).
All of this stuff appears to have been added in a huge patch dump (look
at the timeframe surrounding e.g. r182628) where almost every patch
seemed to be untested and not reviewed before being committed.
Post-review responses to the patches were never addressed. I don't think
any of it would have passed pre-commit review.
I doubt anyone is depending on this, since this code appears to be
extremely buggy. In limited testing that Michael Spencer and I did, we
couldn't find a single real-world object file that wouldn't crash the
CFG reconstruction stuff. The symbolizer stuff has O(n^2) behavior and
so is not much use to anyone anyway. It seemed simpler to remove them as
a whole. Most of this code is boilerplate, which is the only way it was
able to scrape by 60% coverage.
HEADSUP: Modules folks, some files I nuked were referenced from
include/llvm/module.modulemap; I just deleted the references. Hopefully
that is the right fix (one was a FIXME though!).

This changes Win64EHEmitter into a utility WinEH UnwindEmitter that can be
shared across multiple architectures and a target specific bit which is
overridden (Win64::UnwindEmitter). This enables sharing the section selection

Windows on ARM.

The fix itself is fairly simple: move getAccessVariant to MCValue so that we
replace the old weak expression evaluation with the far more general
EvaluateAsRelocatable.
This then requires that EvaluateAsRelocatable stop when it finds a non
trivial reference kind. And that in turn requires the ELF writer to look
harder for weak references.
Last but not least, this found a case where we were being bug by bug
compatible with gas and accepting an invalid input. I reported pr19647
to track it.

llvm-svn: 205084
Given
bar = foo + 4
.long bar
MC would eat the 4. GNU as includes it in the relocation. The rule seems to be
that a variable that defines a symbol is used in the relocation and one that
does not define a symbol is evaluated and the result included in the relocation.
Fixing this unfortunately required some other changes:
* Since the variable is now evaluated, it would prevent the ELF writer from
noticing the weakref marker the elf streamer uses. This patch then replaces
that with a VariantKind in MCSymbolRefExpr.
* Using VariantKind then requires us to look past other VariantKind to see
.weakref bar,foo
call bar@PLT
doing this also fixes
zed = foo +2
call zed@PLT
so that is a good thing.
* Looking past VariantKind means that the relocation selection has to use
the fixup instead of the target.
This is a reboot of the previous fixes for MC. I will watch the sanitizer
buildbot and wait for a build before adding back the previous fixes.

Like yaml ObjectFiles, this will be very useful for testing the MC CFG
implementation (mostly MCObjectDisassembler), by matching the output
with YAML, and for potential users of the MC CFG, by using it as an input.
There isn't much to the actual format, it is just a serialization of the
MCModule class. Of note:
- Basic block references (pred/succ, ..) are represented by the BB's
start address.
- Just as in the MC CFG, instructions are MCInsts with a size.
- Operands have a prefix representing the type (only register and
immediate supported here).
- Instruction opcodes are represented by their names; enum values aren't
stable, enum names mostly are: usually, a change to a name would need
lots of changes in the backend anyway.
Same with registers.
All in all, an example is better than 1000 words, here goes:
A simple binary:
Disassembly of section __TEXT,__text:

llvm-svn: 188890
This patch builds on some existing code to do CFG reconstruction from
a disassembled binary:
- MCModule represents the binary, and has a list of MCAtoms.
- MCAtom represents either disassembled instructions (MCTextAtom), or
contiguous data (MCDataAtom), and covers a specific range of addresses.
- MCBasicBlock and MCFunction form the reconstructed CFG. An MCBB is
backed by an MCTextAtom, and has the usual successors/predecessors.
- MCObjectDisassembler creates a module from an ObjectFile using a
disassembler. It first builds an atom for each section. It can also
construct the CFG, and this splits the text atoms into basic blocks.
MCModule and MCAtom were only sketched out; MCFunction and MCBB were
implemented under the experimental "-cfg" llvm-objdump -macho option.
This cleans them up for further use; llvm-objdump -d -cfg now generates
graphviz files for each function found in the binary.
In the future, MCObjectDisassembler may be the right place to do
"intelligent" disassembly: for example, handling constant islands is just
a matter of splitting the atom, using information that may be available
in the ObjectFile. Also, better initial atom formation than just using
sections is possible using symbols (and things like Mach-O's
function_starts load command).
This brings two minor regressions in llvm-objdump -macho -cfg:
- The printing of a relocation's referenced symbol.
- An annotation on loop BBs, i.e., which are their own successor.
Relocation printing is replaced by the MCSymbolizer; the basic CFG
annotation will be superseded by more related functionality.
llvm-svn: 182628
This is a basic first step towards symbolization of disassembled
instructions. This used to be done using externally provided (C API)
callbacks. This patch introduces:
- the MCSymbolizer class, that mimics the same functions that were used
in the X86 and ARM disassemblers to symbolize immediate operands and
to annotate loads based off PC (for things like c string literals).
- the MCExternalSymbolizer class, which implements the old C API.
- the MCRelocationInfo class, which provides a way for targets to
translate relocations (either object::RelocationRef, or disassembler
C API VariantKinds) to MCExprs.
- the MCObjectSymbolizer class, which does symbolization using what it
finds in an object::ObjectFile. This makes simple symbolization (with
no fancy relocation stuff) work for all object formats!
- x86-64 Mach-O and ELF MCRelocationInfos.
- A basic ARM Mach-O MCRelocationInfo, that provides just enough to
support the C API VariantKinds.
Most of what works in otool (the only user of the old symbolization API
that I know of) for x86-64 symbolic disassembly (-tvV) works, namely:
- symbol references: call _foo; jmp 15 <_foo+50>
- relocations: call _foo-_bar; call _foo-4
- __cf?string: leaq 193(%rip), %rax ## literal pool for "hello"
Stub support is the main missing part (because libObject doesn't know,
among other things, about mach-o indirect symbols).
As for the MCSymbolizer API, instead of relying on the disassemblers
to call the tryAdding* methods, maybe this could be done automagically
using InstrInfo? For instance, even though PC-relative LEAs are used
to get the address of string literals in a typical Mach-O file, a MOV
would be used in an ELF file. And right now, the explicit symbolization
only recognizes PC-relative LEAs. InstrInfo should have already have
most of what is needed to know what to symbolize, so this can
definitely be improved.
I'd also like to remove object::RelocationRef::getValueString (it seems
only used by relocation printing in objdump), as simply printing the
created MCExpr is definitely enough (and cleaner than string concats).

specified in the same file that the library itself is created. This is
more idiomatic for CMake builds, and also allows us to correctly specify
dependencies that are missed due to bugs in the GenLibDeps perl script,
or change from compiler to compiler. On Linux, this returns CMake to
a place where it can relably rebuild several targets of LLVM.
I have tried not to change the dependencies from the ones in the current
auto-generated file. The only places I've really diverged are in places
where I was seeing link failures, and added a dependency. The goal of
this patch is not to start changing the dependencies, merely to move
them into the correct location, and an explicit form that we can control
and change when necessary.
This also removes a serialization point in the build because we don't
have to scan all the libraries before we begin building various tools.
We no longer have a step of the build that regenerates a file inside the
source tree. A few other associated cleanups fall out of this.
This isn't really finished yet though. After talking to dgregor he urged
switching to a single CMake macro to construct libraries with both
sources and dependencies in the arguments. Migrating from the two macros
to that style will be a follow-up patch.
Also, llvm-config is still generated with GenLibDeps.pl, which means it
still has slightly buggy dependencies. The internal CMake
'llvm-config-like' macro uses the correct explicitly specified
dependencies however. A future patch will switch llvm-config generation
(when using CMake) to be based on these deps as well.
This may well break Windows. I'm getting a machine set up now to dig
into any failures there. If anyone can chime in with problems they see
or ideas of how to solve them for Windows, much appreciated.
