isExported, intended to replace exportDynamic, is primarily set in two
locations, (a) after parseSymbolVersion and (b) during demoteSymbols.
In the future, we should try removing exportDynamic. Currently,
merging exportDynamic/isExported would cause
riscv-gp.s to fail:
* The first isExported computation considers the undefined symbol exported
* Defined as a linker-synthesized symbol
* isExported remains true, while it should be false
We've noticed that for large builds executing thin-link can take on the
order of 10s of minutes. We are only using a single thread to write the
sharded indices and import files for each input bitcode file. While we
need to ensure the index file produced lists modules in a deterministic
order, that doesn't prevent us from executing the rest of the work in
parallel.
In this change we use a thread pool to execute as much of the backend's
work as possible in parallel. In local testing on a machine with 80
cores, this change makes a thin-link for ~100,000 input files run in ~2
minutes. Without this change it takes upwards of 10 minutes.

minor fix in lld/ELF/LTO.cpp which sets Options.BBAddrMap when
`--lto-basic-block-sections=labels` is passed.
Remove the global variable `symtab` and add a member variable
(`std::unique_ptr<SymbolTable>`) to `Ctx` instead.
This is one step toward eliminating global states.

The optimization takes place for lld (ELF) only. For the rest of use
cases (gold plugin, `llvm-lto2`, etc), LTO owns a string saver to keep
copies and use global resolution key for de-duplication.
Together with @kazutakahirata's work to make `ComputeCrossModuleImport`

binary where peak memory usage needs to go down. Thanks to the

Summary:
Currently the `--lto-emit-llvm` option writes out the
post-internalization bitcode. This is the bitcode before any
optimizations or other pipelines have been run on it. This patch changes
that to use the pre-codegen module, which is the state of the LLVM-IR
after the optimizations have been run.
I believe that this makes sense as the `--lto-emit-llvm` option seems to
imply that we should emit the final output of the LLVM pass as if it
were the desired output. This should include optimizations at the
requested optimization level. My main motivation for this change is to
be able to use this to link several LLVM-IR files into a single one that
I can then pass back to `ld.lld` later (for JIT purposes).
Today `-split-machine-functions` and `-fbasic-block-sections={all,list}`
cannot be combined with `-basic-block-sections=labels` (the labels
option will be ignored).
The inconsistency comes from the way basic block address map -- the
underlying mechanism for basic block labels -- encodes basic block
addresses
(https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2020-July/143512.html).
Specifically, basic block offsets are computed relative to the function
begin symbol. This relies on functions being contiguous which is not the
case for MFS and basic block section binaries. This means Propeller
cannot use binary profiles collected from these binaries, which limits
the applicability of Propeller for iterative optimization.
To make the `SHT_LLVM_BB_ADDR_MAP` feature work with basic block section
binaries, we propose modifying the encoding of this section as follows.
First let us review the current encoding which emits the address of each
function and its number of basic blocks, followed by basic block entries
for each basic block.
| | |
|--|--|
| Address of the function | Function Address |
| Number of basic blocks in this function | NumBlocks |
| BB entry 1
| BB entry 2
| ...
| BB entry #NumBlocks
To make this work for basic block sections, we treat each basic block
section similar to a function, except that basic block sections of the
same function must be encapsulated in the same structure so we can map
all of them to their single function.
We modify the encoding to first emit the number of basic block sections
(BB ranges) in the function. Then we emit the address map of each basic
block section section as before: the base address of the section, its
number of blocks, and BB entries for its basic block. The first section
in the BB address map is always the function entry section.
| | |
|--|--|
| Number of sections for this function | NumBBRanges |
| Section 1 begin address | BaseAddress[1] |
| Number of basic blocks in section 1 | NumBlocks[1] |
| BB entries for Section 1
|..................|
| Section #NumBBRanges begin address | BaseAddress[NumBBRanges] |
| Number of basic blocks in section #NumBBRanges |
NumBlocks[NumBBRanges] |
| BB entries for Section #NumBBRanges
The encoding of basic block entries remains as before with the minor
change that each basic block offset is now computed relative to the
begin symbol of its containing BB section.
This patch adds a new boolean codegen option `-basic-block-address-map`.
Correspondingly, the front-end flag `-fbasic-block-address-map` and LLD
flag `--lto-basic-block-address-map` are introduced.
Analogously, we add a new TargetOption field `BBAddrMap`. This means BB
address maps are either generated for all functions in the compiling
unit, or for none (depending on `TargetOptions::BBAddrMap`).
This patch keeps the functionality of the old
`-fbasic-block-sections=labels` option but does not remove it. A
subsequent patch will remove the obsolete option.
We refactor the `BasicBlockSections` pass by separating the BB address
map and BB sections handing to their own functions (named
`handleBBAddrMap` and `handleBBSections`). `handleBBSections` renumbers
basic blocks and places them in their assigned sections.
`handleBBAddrMap` is invoked after `handleBBSections` (if requested) and
only renumbers the blocks.
- New tests added:
- Two tests basic-block-address-map-with-basic-block-sections.ll and
basic-block-address-map-with-mfs.ll to exercise the combination of
`-basic-block-address-map` with `-basic-block-sections=list` and
'-split-machine-functions`.
- A driver sanity test for the `-fbasic-block-address-map` option
(basic-block-address-map.c).
- An LLD test for testing the `--lto-basic-block-address-map` option.
This reuses the LLVM IR from `lld/test/ELF/lto/basic-block-sections.ll`.
- Renamed and modified the two existing codegen tests for basic block
address map (`basic-block-sections-labels-functions-sections.ll` and
`basic-block-sections-labels.ll`)
- Removed `SHT_LLVM_BB_ADDR_MAP_V0` tests. Full deprecation of
`SHT_LLVM_BB_ADDR_MAP_V0` and `SHT_LLVM_BB_ADDR_MAP` version less than 2
will happen in a separate PR in a few months.
Port COFF's https://reviews.llvm.org/D78221 and
https://reviews.llvm.org/D137217 to ELF. For the in-process ThinLTO
link, `ld.lld --save-temps a.o d/b.o -o out` will create
ELF relocatable files `out.lto.a.o`/`d/out.lto.b.o` instead of
`out1.lto.o`/`out2.lto.o`. Deriving the LTO-generated relocatable file
name from bitcode file names helps debugging.
The relocatable file name from the first regular LTO partition does not
change: `out.lto.o`. The second, if present due to `--lto-partition=`,
changes from `out1.lto.o` to `lto.1.o`.
For an archive member, e.g. `d/a.a(coll.o at 8)`,
the relocatable file is `d/out.lto.a.a(coll.o at 8).o`.
`--lto-emit-asm` file names are changed similarly. `--lto-emit-asm -o
out` now creates `out.lto.s` instead of `out`, therefore the
`--lto-emit-asm -o -` idiom no longer works. However, I think this new
behavior (which matches COFF) is better since keeping or removing
`--lto-emit-asm` will dump different files, instead of overwriting the
`-o` output file from an executable/shared object to an assembly file.

Based on https://reviews.llvm.org/D45375 . Introduce a new InputFile
kind `InternalKind`, use it for
* `ctx.internalFile`: for linker-defined symbols and some synthesized
`Undefined`
* `createInternalFile`: for symbol assignments and --defsym
I picked "internal" instead of "synthetic" to avoid confusion with
SyntheticSection.
Currently a symbol's file is one of: nullptr, ObjKind, SharedKind,
BitcodeKind, BinaryKind. Now it's non-null (I plan to add an
`assert(file)` to Symbol::Symbol and change `toString(const InputFile
*)`
separately).
Debugging and error reporting gets improved. The immediate user-facing
difference is more descriptive "File" column in the --cref output. This
patch may unlock further simplification.
Currently each symbol assignment gets its own
`createInternalFile(cmd->location)`. Two symbol assignments in a linker
script do not share the same file. Making the file the same would be
nice, but would require non trivial code.

When enabling WPD in an environment where native binaries are present, types we want to optimize can be derived from inside these native files and devirtualizing them can lead to correctness issues. RTTI can be used as a way to determine all such types in native files and exclude them from WPD providing a safe checked way to enable WPD.
The approach is:
1. In the linker, identify if RTTI is available for all native types. If not, under `--lto-validate-all-vtables-have-type-infos` `--lto-whole-program-visibility` is automatically disabled. This is done by examining all .symtab symbols in object files and .dynsym symbols in DSOs for vtable (_ZTV) and typeinfo (_ZTI) symbols and ensuring there's always a match for every vtable symbol.
2. During thinlink, if `--lto-validate-all-vtables-have-type-infos` is set and RTTI is available for all native types, identify all typename (_ZTS) symbols via their corresponding typeinfo (_ZTI) symbols that are used natively or outside of our summary and exclude them from WPD.
Testing:
ninja check-all
large Meta service that uses boost, glog and libstdc++.so runs successfully with WPD via --lto-whole-program-visibility. Previously, native types in boost caused incorrect devirtualization that led to crashes.

The unified LTO pipeline creates a single LTO bitcode structure that can
be used by Thin or Full LTO. This means that the LTO mode can be chosen
at link time and that all LTO bitcode produced by the pipeline is
compatible, from an optimization perspective. This makes the behavior of
LTO a bit more predictable by normalizing the set of LTO features
supported by each LTO bitcode file.
Example usage:
clang -flto -funified-lto -fuse-ld=lld foo.c
clang -flto=thin -funified-lto -fuse-ld=lld foo.c
clang -c -flto -funified-lto foo.c # -flto={full,thin} are identical in

Currently, the --thinlto-prefix-replace="oldpath;newpath" option is used during
distributed ThinLTO thin links to specify the mapping of the input bitcode object
files' directory tree (oldpath) to the directory tree (newpath) used for both:
1) the output files of the thin link itself (the .thinlto.bc index files and the
optional .imports files)
2) the specified object file paths written to the response file given in the
--thinlto-index-only=${response} option, which is used by the final native
link and must match the paths of the native object files that will be
produced by ThinLTO backend compiles.
This patch expands the --thinlto-prefix-replace option to allow a separate directory
tree mapping to be specified for the object file paths written to the response file
(number 2 above). This is important to support builds and build systems where the
same output directory may not be written by multiple build actions (e.g. the thin link
and the ThinLTO backend compiles).
The new format is: --thinlto-prefix-replace="origpath;outpath[;objpath]"
This replaces the origpath directory tree of the thin link input files with
outpath when writing the thin link index and imports outputs (number 1
above). If objpath is specified it replaces origpath of the input files with
objpath when writing the response file (number 2 above), otherwise it
falls back to the old behavior of using outpath for this as well.

Currently the lto native object files have names like main.exe.lto.1.obj. In
PDB, those names are used as names for each compiland. Microsoft’s tool
SizeBench uses those names to present to users the size of each object files.
So, names like main.exe.lto.1.obj is not user friendly.
This patch makes the lto native object file names more readable by using
the bitcode file names as part of the file names. For example, if the input
bitcode file has path like "path/to/foo.obj", its corresponding lto native
object file path would be "path/to/main.exe.lto.foo.obj". Since the lto native
object file name only bothers PDB, this patch only changes the lld-linker's
behavior.

A specific case for ThinLTO cache pruning is that the current build is huge, and the cache wasn't big enough to hold the intermediate object files of that build. So in doing that build, a file would be cached, and later in that same build it would be evicted. This was significantly decreasing the effectiveness of the cache. By giving this warning, the user could identify the required cache size/files and improve ThinLTO link speed.
