JITLinkDylib represents a target dylib for a JITLink link. By representing this
explicitly we can:
- Enable JITLinkMemoryManagers to manage allocations on a per-dylib basis
(e.g by maintaining a seperate allocation pool for each JITLinkDylib).
- Enable new features and diagnostics that require information about the
target dylib (not implemented in this patch).
LLVMBuild has been removed from the build system. However, three LLVMBuild.txt
files remain in the tree. This patch simply removes them.

No longer rely on an external tool to build the llvm component layout.
Instead, leverage the existing `add_llvm_componentlibrary` cmake function and
introduce `add_llvm_component_group` to accurately describe component behavior.
These function store extra properties in the created targets. These properties
are processed once all components are defined to resolve library dependencies
and produce the header expected by llvm-config.

implementation.
This patch aims to improve support for out-of-process JITing using OrcV2. It
introduces two new class templates, OrcRPCTargetProcessControlBase and
OrcRPCTPCServer, which together implement the TargetProcessControl API by
forwarding operations to an execution process via an Orc-RPC Endpoint. These
utilities are used to implement out-of-process JITing from llvm-jitlink to
a new llvm-jitlink-executor tool.
This patch also breaks the OrcJIT library into three parts:
-- OrcTargetProcess: Contains code needed by the JIT execution process.
-- OrcShared: Contains code needed by the JIT execution and compiler
processes
-- OrcJIT: Everything else.
This break-up allows JIT executor processes to link against OrcTargetProcess
and OrcShared only, without having to link in all of OrcJIT. Clients executing
JIT'd code in-process should start linking against OrcTargetProcess as well as
OrcJIT.
In the near future these changes will enable:
-- Removal of the OrcRemoteTargetClient/OrcRemoteTargetServer class templates
which provided similar functionality in OrcV1.
-- Restoration of Chapter 5 of the Building-A-JIT tutorial series, which will
serve as a simple usage example for these APIs.
-- Implementation of lazy, cross-target compilation in lli's -jit-kind=orc-lazy
mode.
This patch moves definition generation out from the session lock, instead
running it under a per-dylib generator lock. It also makes the
DefinitionGenerator::tryToGenerate method optionally asynchronous: Generators
are handed an opaque LookupState object which can be captured to stop/restart
the lookup process.
The new scheme provides the following benefits and guarantees:
(1) Queries that do not need to attempt definition generation (because all
requested symbols matched against existing definitions in the JITDylib)
can proceed without being blocked by any running definition generators.
(2) Definition generators can capture the LookupState to continue their work
asynchronously. This allows generators to run for an arbitrary amount of
time without blocking a thread. Definition generators that do not need to
run asynchronously can return without capturing the LookupState to eliminate
unnecessary recursion and improve lookup performance.
(3) Definition generators still do not need to worry about concurrency or
re-entrance: Since they are still run under a (per-dylib) lock, generators
will never be re-entered concurrently, or given overlapping symbol sets to
generate.
Finally, the new system distinguishes between symbols that are candidates for
generation (generation candidates) and symbols that failed to match for a query
(due to symbol visibility). This fixes a bug where an unresolved symbol could
trigger generation of a duplicate definition for an existing hidden symbol.
This patch introduces new APIs to support resource tracking and removal in Orc.
It is intended as a thread-safe generalization of the removeModule concept from
OrcV1.
Clients can now create ResourceTracker objects (using
JITDylib::createResourceTracker) to track resources for each MaterializationUnit
(code, data, aliases, absolute symbols, etc.) added to the JIT. Every
MaterializationUnit will be associated with a ResourceTracker, and
ResourceTrackers can be re-used for multiple MaterializationUnits. Each JITDylib
has a default ResourceTracker that will be used for MaterializationUnits added
to that JITDylib if no ResourceTracker is explicitly specified.
Two operations can be performed on ResourceTrackers: transferTo and remove. The
transferTo operation transfers tracking of the resources to a different
ResourceTracker object, allowing ResourceTrackers to be merged to reduce
administrative overhead (the source tracker is invalidated in the process). The
remove operation removes all resources associated with a ResourceTracker,
including any symbols defined by MaterializationUnits associated with the
tracker, and also invalidates the tracker. These operations are thread safe, and
should work regardless of the the state of the MaterializationUnits. In the case
of resource transfer any existing resources associated with the source tracker
will be transferred to the destination tracker, and all future resources for
those units will be automatically associated with the destination tracker. In
the case of resource removal all already-allocated resources will be
deallocated, any if any program representations associated with the tracker have
not been compiled yet they will be destroyed. If any program representations are
currently being compiled then they will be prevented from completing: their
MaterializationResponsibility will return errors on any attempt to update the
JIT state.
Clients (usually Layer writers) wishing to track resources can implement the
ResourceManager API to receive notifications when ResourceTrackers are
transferred or removed. The MaterializationResponsibility::withResourceKeyDo
method can be used to create associations between the key for a ResourceTracker
and an allocated resource in a thread-safe way.
RTDyldObjectLinkingLayer and ObjectLinkingLayer are updated to use the
ResourceManager API to enable tracking and removal of memory allocated by the
JIT linker.
The new JITDylib::clear method can be used to trigger removal of every
ResourceTracker associated with the JITDylib (note that this will only
remove resources for the JITDylib, it does not run static destructors).
This patch includes unit tests showing basic usage. A follow-up patch will
update the Kaleidoscope and BuildingAJIT tutorial series to OrcV2 and will
use this API to release code associated with anonymous expressions.
TPCDynamicLibrarySearchGenerator was generating errors on missing
symbols, but that doesn't fit the DefinitionGenerator contract: A symbol
that isn't generated by a particular generator should not cause an
error.
This commit fixes the error by using SymbolLookupFlags::WeaklyReferencedSymbol
for all elements of the lookup, and switches llvm-jitlink to use
TPCDynamicLibrarySearchGenerator.
This reapplies commit e137b55058 with
fixes for the broken test case: Non-global symbols should only be
skipped after checking that they're not referenced by the harness.
Archives can now be specified as input files the same way that object
files are. Archives will always be linked after all objects (regardless
of the relative order of the inputs) but before any dynamic libraries or
process symbols.
This patch also relaxes matching for slice triples in
StaticLibraryDefinitionGenerator in order to support this feature:
Vendors need not match if the source vendor is unknown.
The -phony-externals option adds a generator which explicitly defines any
otherwise unresolved externals as null. This transforms link-time
unresolved-symbol errors into potential runtime null pointer accesses
(if an unresolved external is actually accessed during execution).
This option can be useful in -harness mode to avoid having to mock a
large number of symbols that are not reachable at runtime (e.g. unused
methods referenced by a class vtable).
This prevents weak symbols from being immediately dead-stripped when not
directly referenced from the test harneess, enabling use of weak symbols
from the code under test.
The -harness option enables new testing use-cases for llvm-jitlink. It takes a
list of objects to treat as a test harness for any regular objects passed to
llvm-jitlink.
If any files are passed using the -harness option then the following
transformations are applied to all other files:
(1) Symbols definitions that are referenced by the harness files are promoted
to default scope. (This enables access to statics from test harness).
(2) Symbols definitions that clash with definitions in the harness files are
deleted. (This enables interposition by test harness).
(3) All other definitions in regular files are demoted to local scope.
(This causes untested code to be dead stripped, reducing memory cost and
eliminating spurious unresolved symbol errors from untested code).
These transformations allow the harness files to reference and interpose
symbols in the regular object files, which can be used to support execution
tests (including fuzz tests) of functions in relocatable objects produced by a
build.
This patch adds a jitlink pass, 'registerELFGraphInfo', that records section
and symbol information about each LinkGraph in the llvm-jitlink session object.
This allows symbols and sections to be referred to by name in llvm-jitlink
regression tests. This will enable a testcase to be written for
https://reviews.llvm.org/D80613.
Refering to the link order of a dylib better matches the terminology used in
static compilation. As upcoming patches will increase the number of places where
link order matters (for example when closing JITDylibs) it's better to get this
name change out of the way early.
This option can be used to for JITLink to link as-if the target memory slab were
allocated at a specific start address. This can be used to both verify that
cross-address space linking is working correctly, and to ensure that certain
address-sensitive optimizations (e.g. GOT and stub elimination) either do or do
not fire, depending on the requirements of the test case.
This argument is only valid for testing in conjunction with -noexec -slab-alloc,
and will produce an error if used without those arguments.
Initializers and deinitializers are used to implement C++ static constructors
and destructors, runtime registration for some languages (e.g. with the
Objective-C runtime for Objective-C/C++ code) and other tasks that would
typically be performed when a shared-object/dylib is loaded or unloaded by a
statically compiled program.
MCJIT and ORC have historically provided limited support for discovering and
running initializers/deinitializers by scanning the llvm.global_ctors and
llvm.global_dtors variables and recording the functions to be run. This approach
suffers from several drawbacks: (1) It only works for IR inputs, not for object
files (including cached JIT'd objects). (2) It only works for initializers
described by llvm.global_ctors and llvm.global_dtors, however not all
initializers are described in this way (Objective-C, for example, describes
initializers via specially named metadata sections). (3) To make the
initializer/deinitializer functions described by llvm.global_ctors and
llvm.global_dtors searchable they must be promoted to extern linkage, polluting
the JIT symbol table (extra care must be taken to ensure this promotion does
not result in symbol name clashes).
This patch introduces several interdependent changes to ORCv2 to support the
construction of new initialization schemes, and includes an implementation of a
backwards-compatible llvm.global_ctor/llvm.global_dtor scanning scheme, and a
MachO specific scheme that handles Objective-C runtime registration (if the
Objective-C runtime is available) enabling execution of LLVM IR compiled from
Objective-C and Swift.
The major changes included in this patch are:
(1) The MaterializationUnit and MaterializationResponsibility classes are
extended to describe an optional "initializer" symbol for the module (see the
getInitializerSymbol method on each class). The presence or absence of this
symbol indicates whether the module contains any initializers or
deinitializers. The initializer symbol otherwise behaves like any other:
searching for it triggers materialization.
(2) A new Platform interface is introduced in llvm/ExecutionEngine/Orc/Core.h
which provides the following callback interface:
- Error setupJITDylib(JITDylib &JD): Can be used to install standard symbols
in JITDylibs upon creation. E.g. __dso_handle.
- Error notifyAdding(JITDylib &JD, const MaterializationUnit &MU): Generally
used to record initializer symbols.
- Error notifyRemoving(JITDylib &JD, VModuleKey K): Used to notify a platform
that a module is being removed.
Platform implementations can use these callbacks to track outstanding
initializers and implement a platform-specific approach for executing them. For
example, the MachOPlatform installs a plugin in the JIT linker to scan for both
__mod_inits sections (for C++ static constructors) and ObjC metadata sections.
If discovered, these are processed in the usual platform order: Objective-C
registration is carried out first, then static initializers are executed,
ensuring that calls to Objective-C from static initializers will be safe.
This patch updates LLJIT to use the new scheme for initialization. Two
LLJIT::PlatformSupport classes are implemented: A GenericIR platform and a MachO
platform. The GenericIR platform implements a modified version of the previous
llvm.global-ctor scraping scheme to provide support for Windows and
Linux. LLJIT's MachO platform uses the MachOPlatform class to provide MachO
specific initialization as described above.

This relieves ObjectLinkingLayer clients of the responsibility of holding the
memory manager. This makes it easier to select between RTDyldObjectLinkingLayer
(which already owned its memory manager factory) and ObjectLinkingLayer at
runtime as clients aren't required to hold a jitlink::MemoryManager field just
in case ObjectLinkingLayer is selected.
This patch removes the magic "main" JITDylib from ExecutionEngine. The main
JITDylib was created automatically at ExecutionSession construction time, and
all subsequently created JITDylibs were added to the main JITDylib's
links-against list by default. This saves a couple of lines of boilerplate for
simple JIT setups, but this isn't worth introducing magical behavior for.
ORCv2 clients should now construct their own main JITDylib using
ExecutionSession::createJITDylib and set up its linkages manually using
JITDylib::setSearchOrder (or related methods in JITDylib).
The runAsMain function takes a pointer to a function with a standard C main
signature, int(*)(int, char*[]), and invokes it using the given arguments and
program name. The arguments are copied into writable temporary storage as
required by the C and C++ specifications, so runAsMain safe to use when calling
main functions that modify their arguments in-place.
This patch also uses the new runAsMain function to replace hand-rolled versions
in lli, llvm-jitlink, and the SpeculativeJIT example.
libraries.
This patch substantially updates ORCv2's lookup API in order to support weak
references, and to better support static archives. Key changes:
-- Each symbol being looked for is now associated with a SymbolLookupFlags
value. If the associated value is SymbolLookupFlags::RequiredSymbol then
the symbol must be defined in one of the JITDylibs being searched (or be
able to be generated in one of these JITDylibs via an attached definition
generator) or the lookup will fail with an error. If the associated value is
SymbolLookupFlags::WeaklyReferencedSymbol then the symbol is permitted to be
undefined, in which case it will simply not appear in the resulting
SymbolMap if the rest of the lookup succeeds.
Since lookup now requires these flags for each symbol, the lookup method now
takes an instance of a new SymbolLookupSet type rather than a SymbolNameSet.
SymbolLookupSet is a vector-backed set of (name, flags) pairs. Clients are
responsible for ensuring that the set property (i.e. unique elements) holds,
though this is usually simple and SymbolLookupSet provides convenience
methods to support this.
-- Lookups now have an associated LookupKind value, which is either
LookupKind::Static or LookupKind::DLSym. Definition generators can inspect
the lookup kind when determining whether or not to generate new definitions.
The StaticLibraryDefinitionGenerator is updated to only pull in new objects
from the archive if the lookup kind is Static. This allows lookup to be
re-used to emulate dlsym for JIT'd symbols without pulling in new objects
from archives (which would not happen in a normal dlsym call).
-- JITLink is updated to allow externals to be assigned weak linkage, and
weak externals now use the SymbolLookupFlags::WeaklyReferencedSymbol value
for lookups. Unresolved weak references will be assigned the default value of
zero.
Since this patch was modifying the lookup API anyway, it alo replaces all of the
"MatchNonExported" boolean arguments with a "JITDylibLookupFlags" enum for
readability. If a JITDylib's associated value is
JITDylibLookupFlags::MatchExportedSymbolsOnly then the lookup will only
match against exported (non-hidden) symbols in that JITDylib. If a JITDylib's
associated value is JITDylibLookupFlags::MatchAllSymbols then the lookup will
match against any symbol defined in the JITDylib.
MipsMCAsmInfo was using '$' prefix for Mips32 and '.L' for Mips64
regardless of -target-abi option. By passing MCTargetOptions to MCAsmInfo
we can find out Mips ABI and pick appropriate prefix.

In the Atom model the symbols, content and relocations of a relocatable object
file are represented as a graph of atoms, where each Atom represents a
contiguous block of content with a single name (or no name at all if the
content is anonymous), and where edges between Atoms represent relocations.
If more than one symbol is associated with a contiguous block of content then
the content is broken into multiple atoms and layout constraints (represented by
edges) are introduced to ensure that the content remains effectively contiguous.
These layout constraints must be kept in mind when examining the content
associated with a symbol (it may be spread over multiple atoms) or when applying
certain relocation types (e.g. MachO subtractors).
This patch replaces the Atom model in JITLink with a blocks-and-symbols model.
The blocks-and-symbols model represents relocatable object files as bipartite
graphs, with one set of nodes representing contiguous content (Blocks) and
another representing named or anonymous locations (Symbols) within a Block.
Relocations are represented as edges from Blocks to Symbols. This scheme
removes layout constraints (simplifying handling of MachO alt-entry symbols,
and hopefully ELF sections at some point in the future) and simplifies some
relocation logic.

The llvm-jitlink utility now accepts a '-slab-allocate <size>' option. If given,
llvm-jitlink will use a slab-based memory manager rather than the default
InProcessMemoryManager. Using a slab allocator will allow reliable testing of
future locality based optimizations (e.g. PLT and GOT elimination) in JITLink.
The <size> argument is a number, optionally followed by a units specifier (Kb,
Mb, or Gb). If the units are not given then the number is assumed to be in Kb.

This patch replaces the JITDylib::DefinitionGenerator typedef with a class of
the same name, and adds support for attaching a sequence of DefinitionGeneration
objects to a JITDylib.
This patch also adds a new definition generator,
StaticLibraryDefinitionGenerator, that can be used to add symbols fom a static
library to a JITDylib. An object from the static library will be added (via
a supplied ObjectLayer reference) whenever a symbol from that object is
referenced.
To enable testing, lli is updated to add support for the --extra-archive option
when running in -jit-kind=orc-lazy mode.
