This patch adds simplified support for tail calls on ARM with XRay instrumentation.
Known issue: compiled with generic flags: `-O3 -g -fxray-instrument -Wall
-std=c++14 -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections` (this list doesn't include my
specific flags like --target=armv7-linux-gnueabihf etc.), the following program
#include <cstdio>
#include <cassert>
#include <xray/xray_interface.h>
[[clang::xray_always_instrument]] void __attribute__ ((noinline)) fC() {
std::printf("In fC()\n");
}
[[clang::xray_always_instrument]] void __attribute__ ((noinline)) fB() {
std::printf("In fB()\n");
fC();
}
[[clang::xray_always_instrument]] void __attribute__ ((noinline)) fA() {
std::printf("In fA()\n");
fB();
}
// Avoid infinite recursion in case the logging function is instrumented (so calls logging
// function again).
[[clang::xray_never_instrument]] void simplyPrint(int32_t functionId, XRayEntryType xret)
{
printf("XRay: functionId=%d type=%d.\n", int(functionId), int(xret));
}
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
__xray_set_handler(simplyPrint);
printf("Patching...\n");
__xray_patch();
fA();
printf("Unpatching...\n");
__xray_unpatch();
fA();
return 0;
}
gives the following output:
Patching...
XRay: functionId=3 type=0.
In fA()
XRay: functionId=3 type=1.
XRay: functionId=2 type=0.
In fB()
XRay: functionId=2 type=1.
XRay: functionId=1 type=0.
XRay: functionId=1 type=1.
In fC()
Unpatching...
In fA()
In fB()
In fC()
So for function fC() the exit sled seems to be called too much before function
exit: before printing In fC().
Debugging shows that the above happens because printf from fC is also called as
a tail call. So first the exit sled of fC is executed, and only then printf is
jumped into. So it seems we can't do anything about this with the current
approach (i.e. within the simplification described in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D23988 ).

This is a port of XRay to ARM 32-bit, without Thumb support yet. The XRay instrumentation support is moving up to AsmPrinter.

Summary:
This change promotes the 'isTailCall(...)' member function to
TargetInstrInfo as a query interface for determining on a per-target
basis whether a given MachineInstr is a tail call instruction. We build
upon this in the XRay instrumentation pass to emit special sleds for
tail call optimisations, where we emit the correct kind of sled.
The tail call sleds look like a mix between the function entry and
function exit sleds. Form-wise, the sled comes before the "jmp"
instruction that implements the tail call similar to how we do it for
the function entry sled. Functionally, because we know this is a tail
call, it behaves much like an exit sled -- i.e. at runtime we may use
the exit trampolines instead of a different kind of trampoline.
A follow-up change to recognise these sleds will be done in compiler-rt,
so that we can start intercepting these initially as exits, but also
have the option to have different log entries to more accurately reflect
that this is actually a tail call.

Summary:
In this patch we implement the following parts of XRay:
- Supporting a function attribute named 'function-instrument' which currently only supports 'xray-always'. We should be able to use this attribute for other instrumentation approaches.
- Supporting a function attribute named 'xray-instruction-threshold' used to determine whether a function is instrumented with a minimum number of instructions (IR instruction counts).
- X86-specific nop sleds as described in the white paper.
- A machine function pass that adds the different instrumentation marker instructions at a very late stage.
- A way of identifying which return opcode is considered "normal" for each architecture.
There are some caveats here:
1) We don't handle PATCHABLE_RET in platforms other than x86_64 yet -- this means if IR used PATCHABLE_RET directly instead of a normal ret, instruction lowering for that platform might do the wrong thing. We think this should be handled at instruction selection time to by default be unpacked for platforms where XRay is not availble yet.
2) The generated section for X86 is different from what is described from the white paper for the sole reason that LLVM allows us to do this neatly. We're taking the opportunity to deviate from the white paper from this perspective to allow us to get richer information from the runtime library.
