When LLVM emits DWARF call frame information, it currently creates a local,
section-relative symbol in the code section, which is pointed to by a
relocation on the .eh_frame section. However, for C++ we emit some functions in
section groups, and the SysV ABI has some rules to make it easier to remove
these sections
(http://www.sco.com/developers/gabi/latest/ch4.sheader.html#section_group_rules):
A symbol table entry with STB_LOCAL binding that is defined relative to one
of a group's sections, and that is contained in a symbol table section that is
not part of the group, must be discarded if the group members are discarded.
References to this symbol table entry from outside the group are not allowed.
This means that we need to use the function symbol for the relocation, not a
temporary symbol.
There was a comment in the code claiming that the local symbol was used to
avoid creating a relocation, but a relocation must be created anyway as the
code and CFI are in different sections.

Currently we only need to emit skeleton strings into the CU header and
we do this by explicitly calling "addLocalString". With gmlt-in-fission,
we'll be emitting a bunch of other strings from other codepaths where
it's not statically known that these strings will be local or not.
Introduce a virtual function to indicate whether this unit is a DWO unit
or not (I'm not sure if we have a good term for this, the
opposite/alternative to 'skeleton' unit) and use that to generalize the
string emission logic so that strings can be correctly emitted in both
the skeleton and dwo unit when in split dwarf mode.
And to demonstrate that this works, switch the existing special callers
of addLocalString in the skeleton builder to addString - and they still
work. Yay.
llvm-svn: 221094
This is a useful distinction/invariant/delination to make because
LineTablesOnly mode is never relevant to type units, so it's clear that
we're not doing weird line-tables-only-with-types by making this API
choice.
It also lays the foundations nicely for adding gmlt-like data to fission
skeleton CUs while limiting the effects to CUs and not TUs.
llvm-svn: 221093
(these will shortly become virtual, with a null implementation in
DwarfUnit (since type units don't have accelerator tables in the current
schema) and the current implementation down in DwarfCompileUnit, moving
the actual maps there too)
llvm-svn: 221082
This would help catch cases where we might otherwise try to reference a
dwo CU label, which would be weird - because without relocations in the
dwo file it's not generally meaningful to talk about the CU offsets
there (or, if it is, we can do so in absolute terms without using a
relocation to compute it).
llvm-svn: 221078
This allows the CU label to be emitted only for compile units, as
they're the only ones that need it (so they can be referenced from
pubnames)
llvm-svn: 221072
This was a compile-unit specific label (unused in type units) and seems
unnecessary anyway when we can more easily directly compute the size of
the compile unit.
llvm-svn: 221067
Type units no longer have skeletons and it's misleading to be able to
query for a type unit's skeleton (it might incorrectly lead one to
conclude that if a unit doesn't have a skeleton it's not in a .dwo
file... ).
llvm-svn: 221055
This is the first big step to allowing gmlt-like inline scope
information in the skeleton CU. While this commit doesn't change the
functionality, it's only a small step to call
"constructAbstractSubprogramDIE" on both the InfoHolder and the
SkeletonHolder (when in use) and that will at least create the abstract
SP dies in that case, though still not creating the other subprograms.
llvm-svn: 221051
So that it has access to getOrCreateGlobalVariableDIE. If we ever support
decsribing using directive in C++ classes (thus requiring support in type
units), it will certainly use another mechanism anyway.

(part of refactoring to allow subprogram emission in both the skeleton
and main units to enable -gmlt-like data to be included in the skeleton
for live inlined backtracing purposes)
llvm-svn: 220578
While refactoring this code I was confused by both the name I had
introduced (addNonArgumentVariable... but it has all this logic to
handle argument numbering and keep things in order?) and by the
redundancy. Seems when I fixed the misordered inlined argument handling,
I didn't realize it was mostly redundant with the argument ordering code
(which I may've also written, I'm not sure). So let's just rely on the
more general case.
The only oddity in output this produces is that it means when we emit
all the variables for the current function, we don't track when we've
finished the argument variables and are about to start the local
variables and insert DW_AT_unspecified_parameters (for varargs
functions) there. Instead it ends up after the local variables, scopes,
etc. But this isn't invalid and doesn't cause DWARF consumers problems
that I know of... so we'll just go with that because it makes the code
nice & simple.
(though, let's see what the buildbots have to say about this - *crosses
fingers*)
There will be some cleanup commits to follow to remove the now trivial
wrappers, etc.
llvm-svn: 220527
This fixes a bug (introduced by fixing the IR emitted from Clang where
the definition of a static member would be scoped within the class,
rather than within its lexical decl context) where the definition of a
static variable would be placed inside a class.
It also improves source fidelity by scoping static class member
definitions inside the lexical decl context in which tehy are written
(eg: namespace n { class foo { static int i; } int foo::i; } - the
definition of 'i' will be within the namespace 'n' in the DWARF output
now).
Lastly, and the original goal, this reduces debug info size slightly
(and makes debug info easier to read, etc) by placing the definitions of
non-member global variables within their namespace, rather than using a
separate namespace-scoped declaration along with a definition at global
scope.
Based on patches and discussion with Frédéric.
llvm-svn: 220497
Variable handling will be sunk into DwarfFile so that abstract variables
and the like can be shared across multiple CUs (to handle cross-CU
inlining, for example).
llvm-svn: 220453
Use the DwarfDebug in one function that previously took it as a
parameter, and lay the foundation for use this for other operations
coming soon.
llvm-svn: 220452
Now that we're sure the only root (non-abstract) scope is the current
function scope, there's no need for isCurrentFunctionScope, the property
can be tested directly instead.
llvm-svn: 220451
Every target we support has support for assembly that looks like
a = b - c
.long a
What is special about MachO is that the above combination suppresses the
production of a relocation.
With this change we avoid producing the intermediary labels when they don't
add any value.
llvm-svn: 220256
Broken parent scope pointers in inlined DIVariables can cause
ensureAbstractVariableIsCreated to insert new abstract scopes, thus
invalidating the iterator in this loop and leading to hard-to-debug
crashes. Useful when manually reducing IR for testcases.
llvm-svn: 219628
This introduces access to the AbstractSPDies map from DwarfDebug so
DwarfCompileUnit can access it. Eventually this'll sink down to
DwarfFile, but it'll still be generically accessible - not much
encapsulation to provide it. (constructInlinedScopeDIE could stay
further up, in DwarfFile to avoid exposing this - but I don't think
that's particularly better)
llvm-svn: 219411
(& add a few accessors/make a couple of things public for this - it's a
bit of a toss-up, but I think I prefer it this way, keeping some more of
the meaty code down in DwarfCompileUnit - if only to make for smaller
implementation files, etc)
I think we could simplify range handling a bit if we removed the range
lists from each unit and just put a single range list on DwarfDebug,
similar to address pooling.
llvm-svn: 219370
One of many steps to generalize subprogram emission to both the DWO and
non-DWO sections (to emit -gmlt-like data under fission). Once the
functions are pushed down into DwarfCompileUnit some of the data
structures will be pushed at least into DwarfFile so that they can be
unique per-file, allowing emission to both files independently.
llvm-svn: 219345
It was just calling a bunch of DwarfUnit functions anyway, as can be
seen by the simplification of removing "TheCU" from all the function
calls in the implementation.
llvm-svn: 219103
This requires exposing some of the current function state from
DwarfDebug. I hope there's not too much of that to expose as I go
through all the functions, but it still seems nicer to expose singular
data down to multiple consumers, than have consumers expose raw mapping
data structures up to DwarfDebug for building subprograms.
Part of a series of refactoring to allow subprograms in both the
skeleton and dwo CUs under Fission.
llvm-svn: 219060
In preparation for sinking all the subprogram emission code down from
DwarfDebug into DwarfCompileUnit, this will avoid bloating
DwarfUnit.h/cpp greatly and make concerns a bit more clear/isolated.
(sinking this handling down is part of the work to handle emitting
minimal subprograms for -gmlt-like data into the skeleton CU under
fission)

This reverts commit r218918, effectively reapplying r218914 after fixing
an Ocaml bindings test and an Asan crash. The root cause of the latter
was a tightened-up check in `DILexicalBlock::Verify()`, so I'll file a
PR to investigate who requires the loose check (and why).

argument of the llvm.dbg.declare/llvm.dbg.value intrinsics.
Previously, DIVariable was a variable-length field that has an optional
reference to a Metadata array consisting of a variable number of
complex address expressions. In the case of OpPiece expressions this is
wasting a lot of storage in IR, because when an aggregate type is, e.g.,
SROA'd into all of its n individual members, the IR will contain n copies
of the DIVariable, all alike, only differing in the complex address
reference at the end.
By making the complex address into an extra argument of the
dbg.value/dbg.declare intrinsics, all of the pieces can reference the
same variable and the complex address expressions can be uniqued across
the CU, too.
Down the road, this will allow us to move other flags, such as
"indirection" out of the DIVariable, too.
The new intrinsics look like this:
declare void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata %storage, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
declare void @llvm.dbg.value(metadata %storage, i64 %offset, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
This patch adds a new LLVM-local tag to DIExpressions, so we can detect
and pretty-print DIExpression metadata nodes.
What this patch doesn't do:
This patch does not touch the "Indirect" field in DIVariable; but moving
that into the expression would be a natural next step.

This allows proper disambiguation of unbounded arrays and arrays of zero
bound ("struct foo { int x[]; };" and "struct foo { int x[0]; }"). GCC
instead produces an upper bound of -1 in the latter situation, but count
seems tidier. This way lower_bound is provided if it's not the language
default and count is provided if the count is known, otherwise it's
omitted. Simple.
If someone wants to look at rdar://problem/12566646 and see if this
change is acceptable to that bug/fix, that might be helpful (see the
empty-and-one-elem-array.ll test case which cites that radar).

No functional change. Pre-emptive refactoring before I start pushing
some of this subprogram creation down into DWARFCompileUnit so I can
build different subprograms in the skeleton unit from the dwo unit for
adding -gmlt-like data to the skeleton.
llvm-svn: 218713
r218129 omits DW_TAG_subprograms which have no inlined subroutines when
emitting -gmlt data. This makes -gmlt very low cost for -O0 builds.
Darwin's dsymutil reasonably considers a CU empty if it has no
subprograms (which occurs with the above optimization in -O0 programs
without any force_inline function calls) and drops the line table, CU,
and everything in this situation, making backtraces impossible.
Until dsymutil is modified to account for this, disable this
optimization on Darwin to preserve the desired functionality.
(see r218545, which should be reverted after this patch, for other
discussion/details)
Footnote:
In the long term, it doesn't look like this scheme (of simplified debug
info to describe inlining to enable backtracing) is tenable, it is far
too size inefficient for optimized code (the DW_TAG_inlined_subprograms,
even once compressed, are nearly twice as large as the line table
itself (also compressed)) and we'll be considering things like Cary's
two level line table proposal to encode all this information directly in
the line table.
llvm-svn: 218702
To reduce the size of -gmlt data, skip the subprograms without any
inlined subroutines. Since we've now got the ability to make these
determinations in the backend (funnily enough - we added the flag so we
wouldn't produce ranges under -gmlt, but with this change we use the
flag, but go back to producing ranges under -gmlt).
Instead, just produce CU ranges to inform the consumer which parts of
the code are described by this CU's line table. Tools could inspect the
line table directly to compute the range, but the CU ranges only seem to
be about 0.5% of object/executable size, so I'm not too worried about
teaching llvm-symbolizer that trick just yet - it's certainly a possible
piece of future work.
Update an llvm-symbolizer test just to demonstrate that this schema is
acceptable there (if it wasn't, the compiler-rt tests would catch this,
but good to have an in-llvm-tree test for llvm-symbolizer's behavior
here)
Building the clang binary with -gmlt with this patch reduces the total
size of object files by 5.1% (5.56% without ranges) without compression
and the executable by 4.37% (4.75% without ranges).
llvm-svn: 218129
Summary:
This will allow to request the creation of a forward delacred variable
at is point of use (for imported declarations, this will be
DwarfDebug::constructImportedEntityDIE) rather than having to put the
forward decl in a retention list.
Note that getOrCreateGlobalVariable returns the actual definition DIE when the
routine creates a declaration and a definition DIE. If you agree this is the
right behavior, then I'll have a followup patch that registers the definition
in the DIE map instead of the declaration as it is today (this 'breaks' only
one test, where we test that the imported entity is the declaration). I'm
not sure what's best here, but it's easy enough for a consumer to follow the
DW_AT_specification link to get to the declaration, whereas it takes more
work to find the actual definition from a declaration DIE.
