089acf2522 updated WrapperFunctionCall to carry arbitrary argument payloads
(rather than plain address ranges). This commit implements the corresponding
update for the ORC runtime.
WrapperFunctionCall represents a call to a wrapper function as a pair of a
target function (as an ExecutorAddr), and an argument buffer range (as an
ExecutorAddrRange). WrapperFunctionCall instances can be serialized via
SPS to send to remote machines (only the argument buffer address range is
copied, not any buffer content).
This utility will simplify the implementation of JITLinkMemoryManager
allocation actions in the ORC runtime.
This will simplify integration of this code into LLVM -- The
Simple-Packed-Serialization code can be copied near-verbatim, but
WrapperFunctionResult will require more adaptation.
WrapperFunctionResult is a C++ wrapper for __orc_rt_CWrapperFunctionResult
that automatically manages the underlying struct.
The Simple Packed Serialization (SPS) utilities support a simple serialization
scheme for wrapper function argument and result buffers:
Primitive typess (bool, char, int8_t, and uint8_t, int16_t, uint16_t, int32_t,
uint32_t, int64_t, uint64_t) are serialized in little-endian form.
SPSTuples are serialized by serializing each of the tuple members in order
without padding.
SPSSequences are serialized by serializing a sequence length (as a uint64_t)
followed by each of the elements of the sequence in order without padding.
Serialization/deserialization always involves a pair of SPS type tag (a tag
representing the serialized format to use, e.g. uint32_t, or
SPSTuple<bool, SPSString>) and a concrete type to be serialized from or
deserialized to (uint32_t, std::pair<bool, std::string>). Serialization for new
types can be implemented by specializing the SPSSerializationTraits type.
