Leverage the InMemoryModuleCache to invalidate a module the first time
it fails to import (and to lock a module as soon as it's built or
imported successfully). For implicit module builds, this optimizes
importing deep graphs where the leaf module is out-of-date; see example
near the end of the commit message.
Previously the cache finalized ("locked in") all modules imported so far
when starting a new module build. This was sufficient to prevent
loading two versions of the same module, but was somewhat arbitrary and
hard to reason about.
Now the cache explicitly tracks module state, where each module must be
one of:
- Unknown: module not in the cache (yet).
- Tentative: module in the cache, but not yet fully imported.
- ToBuild: module found on disk could not be imported; need to build.
- Final: module in the cache has been successfully built or imported.
Preventing repeated failed imports avoids variation in builds based on
shifting filesystem state. Now it's guaranteed that a module is loaded
from disk exactly once. It now seems safe to remove
FileManager::invalidateCache, but I'm leaving that for a later commit.
The new, precise logic uncovered a pre-existing problem in the cache:
the map key is the module filename, and different contexts use different
filenames for the same PCM file. (In particular, the test
Modules/relative-import-path.c does not build without this commit.
r223577 started using a relative path to describe a module's base
directory when importing it within another module. As a result, the
module cache sees an absolute path when (a) building the module or
importing it at the top-level, and a relative path when (b) importing
the module underneath another one.)
The "obvious" fix is to resolve paths using FileManager::getVirtualFile
and change the map key for the cache to a FileEntry, but some contexts
(particularly related to ASTUnit) have a shorter lifetime for their
FileManager than the InMemoryModuleCache. This is worth pursuing
further in a later commit; perhaps by tying together the FileManager and
InMemoryModuleCache lifetime, or moving the in-memory PCM storage into a
VFS layer.
For now, use the PCM's base directory as-written for constructing the
filename to check the ModuleCache.
Example
=======
To understand the build optimization, first consider the build of a
module graph TU -> A -> B -> C -> D with an empty cache:
TU builds A'
A' builds B'
B' builds C'
C' builds D'
imports D'
B' imports C'
imports D'
A' imports B'
imports C'
imports D'
TU imports A'
imports B'
imports C'
imports D'
If we build TU again, where A, B, C, and D are in the cache and D is
out-of-date, we would previously get this build:
TU imports A
imports B
imports C
imports D (out-of-date)
TU builds A'
A' imports B
imports C
imports D (out-of-date)
builds B'
B' imports C
imports D (out-of-date)
builds C'
C' imports D (out-of-date)
builds D'
imports D'
B' imports C'
imports D'
A' imports B'
imports C'
imports D'
TU imports A'
imports B'
imports C'
imports D'
After this commit, we'll immediateley invalidate A, B, C, and D when we
first observe that D is out-of-date, giving this build:
TU imports A
imports B
imports C
imports D (out-of-date)
TU builds A' // The same graph as an empty cache.
A' builds B'
B' builds C'
C' builds D'
imports D'
B' imports C'
imports D'
A' imports B'
imports C'
imports D'
TU imports A'
imports B'
imports C'
imports D'
The new build matches what we'd naively expect, pretty closely matching
the original build with the empty cache.

Change MemoryBufferCache to InMemoryModuleCache, moving it from Basic to
Serialization. Another patch will start using it to manage module build
more explicitly, but this is split out because it's mostly mechanical.
Because of the move to Serialization we can no longer abuse the
Preprocessor to forward it to the ASTReader. Besides the rename and
file move, that means Preprocessor::Preprocessor has one fewer parameter
and ASTReader::ASTReader has one more.

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
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
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

This patch moves the virtual file system form clang to llvm so it can be
used by more projects.
Concretely the patch:
- Moves VirtualFileSystem.{h|cpp} from clang/Basic to llvm/Support.
- Moves the corresponding unit test from clang to llvm.
- Moves the vfs namespace from clang::vfs to llvm::vfs.
- Formats the lines affected by this change, mostly this is the result of
the added llvm namespace.

While investigating why LLDB (which can build hundreds of clang
modules during one debug session) was getting "too many open files"
errors, I found that most of them are .pcm files that are kept open by
ModuleManager. Pretty much all of the open file dscriptors are
FileEntries that are refering to `.pcm` files for which a buffer
already exists in a CompilerInstance's PCMCache.
Before PCMCache was added it was necessary to hold on to open file
descriptors to ensure that all ModuleManagers using the same
FileManager read the a consistent version of a given `.pcm` file on
disk, even when a concurrent clang process overwrites the file halfway
through. The PCMCache makes this practice unnecessary, since it caches
the entire contents of a `.pcm` file, while the FileManager caches all
the stat() information.
This patch adds a call to FileEntry::closeFile() to the path where a
Buffer has already been created. This is necessary because even for a
freshly written `.pcm` file the file is stat()ed once immediately
after writing to generate a FileEntry in the FileManager. Because a
freshly-generated file's contents is stored in the PCMCache, it is
fine to close the file immediately thereafter. The second change this
patch makes is to set the `ShouldClose` flag to true when reading a
`.pcm` file into the PCMCache for the first time.
[For reference, in 1 Clang instance there is
- 1 FileManager and
- n ModuleManagers with
- n PCMCaches.]

Extend the -fmodule-file option to support the [<name>=]<file> value format.
If the name is omitted, then the old semantics is preserved (the module file
is loaded whether needed or not). If the name is specified, then the mapping
is treated as just another prebuilt module search mechanism, similar to
-fprebuilt-module-path, and the module file is only loaded if actually used
(e.g., via import). With one exception: this mapping also overrides module
file references embedded in other modules (which can be useful if module files
are moved/renamed as often happens during remote compilation).
This override semantics requires some extra work: we now store the module name
in addition to the file name in the serialized AST representation.

This reverts commit r298185, effectively reapplying r298165, after fixing the
new unit tests (PR32338). The memory buffer generator doesn't null-terminate
the MemoryBuffer it creates; this version of the commit informs getMemBuffer
about that to avoid the assert.
Original commit message follows:
----
Clang's internal build system for implicit modules uses lock files to
ensure that after a process writes a PCM it will read the same one back
in (without contention from other -cc1 commands). Since PCMs are read
from disk repeatedly while invalidating, building, and importing, the
lock is not released quickly. Furthermore, the LockFileManager is not
robust in every environment. Other -cc1 commands can stall until
timeout (after about eight minutes).
This commit changes the lock file from being necessary for correctness
to a (possibly dubious) performance hack. The remaining benefit is to
reduce duplicate work in competing -cc1 commands which depend on the
same module. Follow-up commits will change the internal build system to
continue after a timeout, and reduce the timeout. Perhaps we should
reconsider blocking at all.
This also fixes a use-after-free, when one part of a compilation
validates a PCM and starts using it, and another tries to swap out the
PCM for something new.
The PCMCache is a new type called MemoryBufferCache, which saves memory
buffers based on their filename. Its ownership is shared by the
CompilerInstance and ModuleManager.
- The ModuleManager stores PCMs there that it loads from disk, never
touching the disk if the cache is hot.
- When modules fail to validate, they're removed from the cache.
- When a CompilerInstance is spawned to build a new module, each
already-loaded PCM is assumed to be valid, and is frozen to avoid
the use-after-free.
- Any newly-built module is written directly to the cache to avoid the
round-trip to the filesystem, making lock files unnecessary for
correctness.

If we never need to map any ID within the module to its global ID, we don't
need the module offset map. If a compilation transitively depends on lots of
unused module files, this can result in a modest performance improvement.

Oops... r293393 started calling ReadSignature in
ModuleManager::addModule even when there was no ExpectedSignature.
Whether or not this would have a measurable performance impact (I
spotted this by inspection, and ReadSignature should be fairly fast), we
might as well get what we can. Add an extra check against
ExpectedSignature to avoid the hit.

I don't have a testcase for this (and I'm not sure if it's an observable
bug), but it seems obviously wrong that ModuleManager::removeModules is
failing to clean up deleted modules from ModuleFile::Imports. See the
code in ModuleManager::addModule that inserts into ModuleFile::Imports;
we need the inverse operation.
llvm-svn: 293399
ModuleManager::removeModules always deletes a tail of the
ModuleManager::Chain. Change the API to enforce that so that we can
simplify the code inside.
There's no real functionality change, although there's a slight
performance hack to loop to the First deleted module instead of the
final module in the chain (skipping the about-to-be-deleted tail).
Also document something suspicious: we fail to clean deleted modules out
of ModuleFile::Imports.
llvm-svn: 293398
Hide the pointer indirection in ModuleManager::begin, ModuleManager::end,
ModuleManager::rbegin, and ModuleManager::rend. Besides tidying up the call

The main point is to move the delete-the-new-module logic into the same block
that creates it, so I can simplify the memory management in a follow-up, but I
think it's clearer to use use a checkSignature helper here anyway.
There is a minor functionality change: we now scan ahead to pull the signature
out of the control block *only* if this is a new ModuleFile. For old ones,
ASTReader::ReadControlBlock will have already read the signature.

In this mode, there is no need to load any module map and the programmer can
simply use "@import" syntax to load the module directly from a prebuilt

rebuilding of the module files and we ignore compatible configuration
mismatches.

When removing out-of-date modules we might have left behind a VisitOrder

more modules are added: visit modules depth-first rather than breadth-first.
The visitation is still (approximately) oldest-to-newest, and still guarantees
that a module is visited before anything it imports, so modules that are
imported by others sometimes need to jump to a later position in the visitation
order when more modules are loaded, but independent module trees don't
interfere with each other any more.

A PCHContainerOperations abstract interface provides operations for
creating and unwrapping containers for serialized ASTs (precompiled
headers and clang modules). The default implementation is
RawPCHContainerOperations, which uses a flat file for the output.
The main application for this interface will be an
ObjectFilePCHContainerOperations implementation that uses LLVM to
wrap the module in an ELF/Mach-O/COFF container to store debug info
alongside the AST.
