This patch removes hidden codegen flag -print-schedule effectively reverting the
logic originally committed as r300311
(https://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?view=revision&revision=300311).
Flag -print-schedule was originally introduced by r300311 to address PR32216
(https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32216). That bug was about adding "Better
testing of schedule model instruction latencies/throughputs".
These days, we can use llvm-mca to test scheduling models. So there is no longer
a need for flag -print-schedule in LLVM. The main use case for PR32216 is
now addressed by llvm-mca.
Flag -print-schedule is mainly used for debugging purposes, and it is only
actually used by x86 specific tests. We already have extensive (latency and
throughput) tests under "test/tools/llvm-mca" for X86 processor models. That
means, most (if not all) existing -print-schedule tests for X86 are redundant.
When flag -print-schedule was first added to LLVM, several files had to be
modified; a few APIs gained new arguments (see for example method
MCAsmStreamer::EmitInstruction), and MCSubtargetInfo/TargetSubtargetInfo gained
a couple of getSchedInfoStr() methods.
Method getSchedInfoStr() had to originally work for both MCInst and
MachineInstr. The original implmentation of getSchedInfoStr() introduced a
subtle layering violation (reported as PR37160 and then fixed/worked-around by
r330615).
In retrospect, that new API could have been designed more optimally. We can
always query MCSchedModel to get the latency and throughput. More importantly,
the "sched-info" string should not have been generated by the subtarget.
Note, r317782 fixed an issue where "print-schedule" didn't work very well in the
presence of inline assembly. That commit is also reverted by this change.

to reflect the new license.
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

If offset is a forward declared label, MCObjectStreamer keeps the fixup locally

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.

SHF_ARM_PURECODE flag when being built with the -mexecute-only flag.

A HasData flag is added to MCSection to aid in the determination that

Now that we create the label at the point of the directive, we don't
need to set the "current CV location", and then later when we emit the
next instruction, create a label for it and emit it.
DWARF still defers the labels used in .debug_loc until the next
instruction or value, for reasons unknown.
llvm-svn: 340883
Previously we followed the DWARF implementation, which waits until the
next instruction or data to emit the label to use in the .debug_loc
section. We might want to consider re-evaluating that design choice as
well, since it means the .loc skips alignment padding, for better or
worse.
This was the most minimal fix I could come up with, but we should be
able to do a lot of cleanups now that we don't need to save a pending CV
location on the CodeViewContext. I plan to do those next, but this
immediately fixes an assertion for some of our users.

When emitting the difference between two symbols, the standard behavior is
that the difference will be resolved to an absolute value if both of the
symbols are offsets from the same data fragment. This is undesirable on
architectures such as RISC-V where relaxation in the linker may cause the
computed difference to become invalid. This caused an issue when compiling to
object code, where the size of a function in the debug information was already
calculated even though it could change as a consequence of relaxation in the
subsequent linking stage.
This patch inhibits the resolution of symbol differences to absolute values
where the target's AsmBackend has declared that it does not want these to be
folded.

AT_NAME was being emitted before the directory paths were remapped. This

An additional test case has been added.
Note that this only works if the replacement string is an absolute path.
If not, then AT_decl_file believes the new path is a relative path, and

way to resolve this.

On targets like Arm some relaxations may only be performed when certain
architectural features are available. As functions can be compiled with
differing levels of architectural support we must make a judgement on
whether we can relax based on the MCSubtargetInfo for the function. This
change passes through the MCSubtargetInfo for the function to
fixupNeedsRelaxation so that the decision on whether to relax can be made
per function. In this patch, only the ARM backend makes use of this
information. We must also pass the MCSubtargetInfo to applyFixup because
some fixups skip error checking on the assumption that relaxation has
occurred, to prevent code-generation errors applyFixup must see the same
MCSubtargetInfo as fixupNeedsRelaxation.

Teach AsmParser to check with Assembler for when evaluating constant
expressions. This improves the handing of preprocessor expressions
that must be resolved at parse time. This idiom can be found as
assembling-time assertion checks in source-level assemblers. Note that
this relies on the MCStreamer to keep sufficient tabs on Section /
Fragment information which the MCAsmStreamer does not. As a result the
textual output may fail where the equivalent object generation would
pass. This can most easily be resolved by folding the MCAsmStreamer
and MCObjectStreamer together which is planned for in a separate
patch.
Currently, this feature is only enabled for assembly input, keeping IR
compilation consistent between assembly and object generation.

Rely on the assembler to finalize the layout of the DWARF/Itanium
exception-handling LSDA. Rather than calculate the exact size of each
thing in the LSDA, use assembler directives:
To emit the offset to the TTBase label:
.uleb128 .Lttbase0-.Lttbaseref0
.Lttbaseref0:
To emit the size of the call site table:
.uleb128 .Lcst_end0-.Lcst_begin0
.Lcst_begin0:
... call site table entries ...
.Lcst_end0:
To align the type info table:
... action table ...
.balign 4
.long _ZTIi
.long _ZTIl
.Lttbase0:
Using assembler directives simplifies the compiler and allows switching
the encoding of offsets in the call site table from udata4 to uleb128 for
a large code size savings. (This commit does not change the encoding.)
The combination of the uleb128 followed by a balign creates an unfortunate
dependency cycle that the assembler must sometimes resolve either by
padding an LEB or by inserting zero padding before the type table. See
PR35809 or GNU as bug 4029.

Summary:
This suppresses the generation of .Lcfi labels in our textual assembler.
It was annoying that this generated cascading .Lcfi labels:
llc foo.ll -o - | llvm-mc | llvm-mc
After three trips through MCAsmStreamer, we'd have three labels in the
output when none are necessary. We should only bother creating the
labels and frame data when making a real object file.
This supercedes D38605, which moved the entire .seh_ implementation into
MCObjectStreamer.
This has the advantage that we do more checking when emitting textual
assembly, as a minor efficiency cost. Outputting textual assembly is not
performance critical, so this shouldn't matter.

Currently, the error messages we emit for the .org directive when the
expression is not absolute or is out of range do not include the line
number of the directive, so it can be hard to track down the problem if
a file contains many .org directives.
This patch stores the source location in the MCOrgFragment, so that it
can be used for diagnostics emitted during layout.
Since layout is an iterative process, and the errors are detected during
each iteration, it would have been possible for errors to be reported
multiple times. To prevent this, I've made the assembler bail out after
each iteration if any errors have been reported. This will still allow
multiple unrelated errors to be reported in the common case where they
are all detected in the first round of layout.

Summary:
Previously we were trying to represent this with the "contains" list of
the .cv_inline_linetable directive, which was not enough information.
Now we directly represent the chain of inlined call sites, so we know
what location to emit when we encounter a .cv_loc directive of an inner
inlined call site while emitting the line table of an outer function or
inlined call site. Fixes PR29146.
Also fixes PR29147, where we would crash when .cv_loc directives crossed
sections. Now we write down the section of the first .cv_loc directive,
and emit an error if any other .cv_loc directive for that function is in
a different section.
Also fixes issues with discontiguous inlined source locations, like in
this example:
volatile int unlikely_cond = 0;
extern void __declspec(noreturn) abort();
__forceinline void f() {
if (!unlikely_cond) abort();
}
int main() {
unlikely_cond = 0;
f();
unlikely_cond = 0;
}
Previously our tables gave bad location information for the 'abort'
call, and the debugger wouldn't snow the inlined stack frame for 'f'.
It is important to emit good line tables for this code pattern, because
it comes up whenever an asan bug occurs in an inlined function. The
__asan_report* stubs are generally placed after the normal function
epilogue, leading to discontiguous regions of inlined code.
