Revise the coverage mapping format to reduce binary size by:
1. Naming function records and marking them `linkonce_odr`, and
2. Compressing filenames.
This shrinks the size of llc's coverage segment by 82% (334MB -> 62MB)
and speeds up end-to-end single-threaded report generation by 10%. For
reference the compressed name data in llc is 81MB (__llvm_prf_names).
Rationale for changes to the format:
- With the current format, most coverage function records are discarded.
E.g., more than 97% of the records in llc are *duplicate* placeholders
for functions visible-but-not-used in TUs. Placeholders *are* used to
show under-covered functions, but duplicate placeholders waste space.
- We reached general consensus about giving (1) a try at the 2017 code
coverage BoF [1]. The thinking was that using `linkonce_odr` to merge
duplicates is simpler than alternatives like teaching build systems
about a coverage-aware database/module/etc on the side.
- Revising the format is expensive due to the backwards compatibility
requirement, so we might as well compress filenames while we're at it.
This shrinks the encoded filenames in llc by 86% (12MB -> 1.6MB).
See CoverageMappingFormat.rst for the details on what exactly has
changed.
Fixes PR34533 [2], hopefully.

Add overlap functionality to llvm-profdata tool to compute the similarity
between two profile files.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D60977
llvm-svn: 359612
Current PGO profile counts are not context sensitive. The branch probabilities
for the inlined functions are kept the same for all call-sites, and they might
be very different from the actual branch probabilities. These suboptimal
profiles can greatly affect some downstream optimizations, in particular for
the machine basic block placement optimization.
In this patch, we propose to have a post-inline PGO instrumentation/use pass,
which we called Context Sensitive PGO (CSPGO). For the users who want the best
possible performance, they can perform a second round of PGO instrument/use on
the top of the regular PGO. They will have two sets of profile counts. The
first pass profile will be manly for inline, indirect-call promotion, and
CGSCC simplification pass optimizations. The second pass profile is for
post-inline optimizations and code-gen optimizations.
A typical usage:
// Regular PGO instrumentation and generate pass1 profile.
> clang -O2 -fprofile-generate source.c -o gen
> ./gen
> llvm-profdata merge default.*profraw -o pass1.profdata
// CSPGO instrumentation.
> clang -O2 -fprofile-use=pass1.profdata -fcs-profile-generate -o gen2
> ./gen2
// Merge two sets of profiles
> llvm-profdata merge default.*profraw pass1.profdata -o profile.profdata
// Use the combined profile. Pass manager will invoke two PGO use passes.
> clang -O2 -fprofile-use=profile.profdata -o use
This change touches many components in the compiler. The reviewed patch
(D54175) will committed in phrases.

We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM

include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and

Summary:
r262157 added ELF-specific logic to put a comdat on the __profc_*
globals created for available_externally functions. We should be able to
generalize that logic to all object file formats that support comdats,
i.e. everything other than MachO. This fixes duplicate symbol errors,
since on COFF, linkonce_odr doesn't make the symbol weak.
Fixes PR38251.

This fixes a unittest failure introduced by D44717
D44717 introduced lazy sorting of the internal data structures of the
symbol table. The AddrToMD5Map getter was potentially exposing
inconsistent (unsorted) state. We could sort in the accessor, however,
a client may store the pointer and thus bypass the internal state
management of the symbol table. The alternative in this CL blocks
direct access to the state, thus ensuring consistent
externally-observable state.

- adds explicit support for such functions
- fixes the places where we would not propagate errors when reading

These command line options are not intended for public use, and often
don't even make sense in the context of a particular tool anyway. About
90% of them are already hidden, but when people add new options they
forget to hide them, so if you were to make a brand new tool today, link
against one of LLVM's libraries, and run tool -help you would get a
bunch of junk that doesn't make sense for the tool you're writing.
This patch hides these options. The real solution is to not have
libraries defining command line options, but that's a much larger effort
and not something I'm prepared to take on.

Reduces llvm-profdata memory usage on a large profile from 7.8GB to 5.1GB.
The ProfData API now supports reporting all the errors/warnings rather

Examining a large profile example, it seems relatively few records have
non-empty IndirectCall and MemOP data, so indirecting these through a
unique_ptr (non-null only when they are non-empty) Reduces memory usage
on this particular example from 14GB to 10GB according to valgrind's
massif.
I suspect it'd still be worth moving InstrProfWriter to its own data
structure that had Counts and the indirected IndirectCall+MemOP, and did
not include the Name, Hash, or Error fields. This would reduce the size
of this dominant data structure by half of this new, lower amount.
(Name(2), Hash(1), Error(1) ~= Counts(vector, 3), ValueProfData
(unique_ptr, 1))
-> From code review feedback, might actually refactor InstrProfRecord
itself to have a sub-struct with all the counts, and use that from
InstrProfWriter, rather than InstrProfWriter owning its own data
structure for 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).

This is a version of D32090 that unifies all of the
`getInstrProf*SectionName` helper functions. (Note: the build failures
which D32090 would have addressed were fixed with r300352.)
We should unify these helper functions because they are hard to use in
their current form. E.g we recently introduced more helpers to fix
section naming for COFF files. This scheme doesn't totally succeed at
hiding low-level details about section naming, so we should switch to an
API that is easier to maintain.
This is not an NFC commit because it fixes llvm-cov's testing support
for COFF files (this falls out of the API change naturally). This is an
area where we lack tests -- I will see about adding one as a follow up.
Testing: check-clang, check-profile, check-llvm.

Summary:
In SamplePGO, if the profile is collected from non-LTO binary, and used to drive ThinLTO, the indirect call promotion may fail because ThinLTO adjusts local function names to avoid conflicts. There are two places of where the mismatch can happen:
1. thin-link prepends SourceFileName to front of FuncName to build the GUID (GlobalValue::getGlobalIdentifier). Unlike instrumentation FDO, SamplePGO does not use the PGOFuncName scheme and therefore the indirect call target profile data contains a hash of the OriginalName.
2. backend compiler promotes some local functions to global and appends .llvm.{$ModuleHash} to the end of the FuncName to derive PromotedFunctionName
This patch tries at the best effort to find the GUID from the original local function name (in profile), and use that in ICP promotion, and in SamplePGO matching that happens in the backend after importing/inlining:
1. in thin-link, it builds the map from OriginalName to GUID so that when thin-link reads in indirect call target profile (represented by OriginalName), it knows which GUID to import.
2. in backend compiler, if sample profile reader cannot find a profile match for PromotedFunctionName, it will try to find if there is a match for OriginalFunctionName.
3. in backend compiler, we build symbol table entry for OriginalFunctionName and pointer to the same symbol of PromotedFunctionName, so that ICP can find the correct target to promote.

Current internal option -static-func-full-module-prefix keeps all the
directory path the profile counter names for static functions. The default
of this option is false. This strips the directory names from the source
filename which is problematic:
(1) it creates linker errors for profile-generation compilation, exposed in
our internal benchmarks. We are seeing messages like
"warning: relocation refers to discarded section".
This is due to the name conflicts after the stripping.
(2) the stripping only applies to getPGOFuncName.
Current Thin-LTO module importing for the indirect-calls assumes
the source directory name not being stripped. Current default value
for this option can potentially prevent some inter-module
indirect-call-promotions.
This patch turns the default value for -static-func-full-module-prefix to true.
The second part of the patch is to have an alternative implementation under
the internal option -static-func-strip-dirname-prefix=<value>
This options specifies level of directories to be stripped from the source
filename. Using a large value as the parameter has the same effect as
-static-func-full-module-prefix.

This patch reverts r291588: [PGO] Turn off comdat renaming in IR PGO by default,
as we are seeing some hash mismatches in our internal tests.
llvm-svn: 291621
Summary:
In IR PGO we append the function hash to comdat functions to avoid the
potential hash mismatch. This turns out not legal in some cases: if the comdat
function is address-taken and used in comparison. Renaming changes the semantic.
This patch turns off comdat renaming by default.
To alleviate the hash mismatch issue, we now rename the profile variable
for comdat functions. Profile allows co-existing multiple versions of profiles
with different hash value. The inlined copy will always has the correct profile
counter. The out-of-line copy might not have the correct count. But we will
not have the bogus mismatch warning.

Profile runtime can generate an empty raw profile (when there is no function in
the shared library). This empty profile is treated as a text format profile. A
test format profile without the flag of "#IR" is thought to be a clang
generated profile. So in llvm profile merging, we will get a bogus warning of
"Merge IR generated profile with Clang generated profile."
The fix here is to skip the empty profile (when the buffer size is 0) for
profile merge.
