This allows tracking the in-memory type of a pointer argument to a
function for ABI purposes. This is essentially a stripped down version
of byval to remove some of the stack-copy implications in its
definition.
This includes the base IR changes, and some tests for places where it
should be treated similarly to byval. Codegen support will be in a
future patch.
My original attempt at solving some of these problems was to repurpose
byval with a different address space from the stack. However, it is
technically permitted for the callee to introduce a write to the
argument, although nothing does this in reality. There is also talk of
removing and replacing the byval attribute, so a new attribute would
need to take its place anyway.
This is intended avoid some optimization issues with the current
handling of aggregate arguments, as well as fixes inflexibilty in how
frontends can specify the kernel ABI. The most honest representation
of the amdgpu_kernel convention is to expose all kernel arguments as
loads from constant memory. Today, these are raw, SSA Argument values
and codegen is responsible for turning these into loads.
Background:
There currently isn't a satisfactory way to represent how arguments
for the amdgpu_kernel calling convention are passed. In reality,
arguments are passed in a single, flat, constant memory buffer
implicitly passed to the function. It is also illegal to call this
function in the IR, and this is only ever invoked by a driver of some
kind.
It does not make sense to have a stack passed parameter in this
context as is implied by byval. It is never valid to write to the
kernel arguments, as this would corrupt the inputs seen by other
dispatches of the kernel. These argumets are also not in the same
address space as the stack, so a copy is needed to an alloca. From a
source C-like language, the kernel parameters are invisible.
Semantically, a copy is always required from the constant argument
memory to a mutable variable.
The current clang calling convention lowering emits raw values,
including aggregates into the function argument list, since using
byval would not make sense. This has some unfortunate consequences for
the optimizer. In the aggregate case, we end up with an aggregate
store to alloca, which both SROA and instcombine turn into a store of
each aggregate field. The optimizer never pieces this back together to
see that this is really just a copy from constant memory, so we end up
stuck with expensive stack usage.
This also means the backend dictates the alignment of arguments, and
arbitrarily picks the LLVM IR ABI type alignment. By allowing an
explicit alignment, frontends can make better decisions. For example,
there's real no advantage to an aligment higher than 4, so a frontend
could choose to compact the argument layout. Similarly, there is a
high penalty to using an alignment lower than 4, so a frontend could
opt into more padding for small arguments.
Another design consideration is when it is appropriate to expose the
fact that these arguments are all really passed in adjacent
memory. Currently we have a late IR optimization pass in codegen to
rewrite the kernel argument values into explicit loads to enable
vectorization. In most programs, unrelated argument loads can be
merged together. However, exposing this property directly from the
frontend has some disadvantages. We still need a way to track the
original argument sizes and alignments to report to the driver. I find
using some side-channel, metadata mechanism to track this
unappealing. If the kernel arguments were exposed as a single buffer
to begin with, alias analysis would be unaware that the padding bits
betewen arguments are meaningless. Another family of problems is there
are still some gaps in replacing all of the available parameter
attributes with metadata equivalents once lowered to loads.
The immediate plan is to start using this new attribute to handle all
aggregate argumets for kernels. Long term, it makes sense to migrate
all kernel arguments, including scalars, to be passed indirectly in
the same manner.
Additional context is in D79744.

For IR generated by a compiler, this is really simple: you just take the
datalayout from the beginning of the file, and apply it to all the IR
later in the file. For optimization testcases that don't care about the
datalayout, this is also really simple: we just use the default
datalayout.
The complexity here comes from the fact that some LLVM tools allow
overriding the datalayout: some tools have an explicit flag for this,
some tools will infer a datalayout based on the code generation target.
Supporting this properly required plumbing through a bunch of new
machinery: we want to allow overriding the datalayout after the
datalayout is parsed from the file, but before we use any information
from it. Therefore, IR/bitcode parsing now has a callback to allow tools
to compute the datalayout at the appropriate time.
Not sure if I covered all the LLVM tools that want to use the callback.
(clang? lli? Misc IR manipulation tools like llvm-link?). But this is at
least enough for all the LLVM regression tests, and IR without a
datalayout is not something frontends should generate.
This change had some sort of weird effects for certain CodeGen
regression tests: if the datalayout is overridden with a datalayout with
a different program or stack address space, we now parse IR based on the
overridden datalayout, instead of the one written in the file (or the
default one, if none is specified). This broke a few AVR tests, and one
AMDGPU test.
Outside the CodeGen tests I mentioned, the test changes are all just
fixing CHECK lines and moving around datalayout lines in weird places.

Summary:
This adds support for embedding bitcode in a binary during LTO. The libLTO gains supports the `-lto-embed-bitcode` flag. The option allows users of the LTO library to embed a bitcode section. For example, LLD can pass the option via `ld.lld -mllvm=-lto-embed-bitcode`.
This feature allows doing something comparable to `clang -c -fembed-bitcode`, but on the (LTO) linker level. Having bitcode alongside native code has many use-cases. To give an example, the MacOS linker can create a `-bitcode_bundle` section containing bitcode. Also, having this feature built into LLVM is an alternative to 3rd party tools such as [[ https://github.com/travitch/whole-program-llvm | wllvm ]] or [[ https://github.com/SRI-CSL/gllvm | gllvm ]]. As with these tools, this feature simplifies creating "whole-program" llvm bitcode files, but in contrast to wllvm/gllvm it does not rely on a specific llvm frontend/driver.

Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D68213
Summary:
Most libraries are defined in the lib/ directory but there are also a
few libraries defined in tools/ e.g. libLLVM, libLTO. I'm defining
"Component Libraries" as libraries defined in lib/ that may be included in
libLLVM.so. Explicitly marking the libraries in lib/ as component
libraries allows us to remove some fragile checks that attempt to
differentiate between lib/ libraries and tools/ libraires:
1. In tools/llvm-shlib, because
llvm_map_components_to_libnames(LIB_NAMES "all") returned a list of
all libraries defined in the whole project, there was custom code
needed to filter out libraries defined in tools/, none of which should
be included in libLLVM.so. This code assumed that any library
defined as static was from lib/ and everything else should be
excluded.
With this change, llvm_map_components_to_libnames(LIB_NAMES, "all")
only returns libraries that have been added to the LLVM_COMPONENT_LIBS
global cmake property, so this custom filtering logic can be removed.
Doing this also fixes the build with BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON
and LLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB=ON.
2. There was some code in llvm_add_library that assumed that
libraries defined in lib/ would not have LLVM_LINK_COMPONENTS or
ARG_LINK_COMPONENTS set. This is only true because libraries
defined lib lib/ use LLVMBuild.txt and don't set these values.
This code has been fixed now to check if the library has been
explicitly marked as a component library, which should now make it
easier to remove LLVMBuild at some point in the future.
I have tested this patch on Windows, MacOS and Linux with release builds
and the following combinations of CMake options:
- "" (No options)
- -DLLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB=ON
- -DLLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB=ON
- -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON
- -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON -DLLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB=ON
- -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON -DLLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB=ON

This patch redefines freeze instruction from being UnaryOperator to a subclass of UnaryInstruction.
ConstantExpr freeze is removed, as discussed in the previous review.
FreezeOperator is not added because there's no ConstantExpr freeze.
`freeze i8* null` test is added to `test/Bindings/llvm-c/freeze.ll` as well, because the null pointer-related bug in `tools/llvm-c/echo.cpp` is now fixed.
InstVisitor has visitFreeze now because freeze is not unaryop anymore.

Patch allows importing declarations of functions and variables, referenced
by the initializer of some other readonly variable.
Differential revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D69561
Summary:
This extends the rules for when a call instruction is deemed to be an
FPMathOperator, which is based on the type of the call (i.e. the return
type of the function being called). Previously we only allowed
floating-point and vector-of-floating-point types. Now we also allow
arrays (nested to any depth) of floating-point and
vector-of-floating-point types.
This was motivated by llpc, the pipeline compiler for AMD GPUs
(https://github.com/GPUOpen-Drivers/llpc). llpc has many math library
functions that operate on vectors, typically represented as <4 x float>,
and some that operate on matrices, typically represented as
[4 x <4 x float>], and it's useful to be able to decorate calls to all
of them with fast math flags.

Similarly, I don't expect this patch to do much on its own either because
SimplifyCFG promptly drops the flags when converting to select on a minimal
example like:

But once we have this plumbing in place, we should be able to wire up the FMF
propagation and start solving cases like that.
The change to RecurrenceDescriptor::AddReductionVar() is required to prevent a
regression in a LoopVectorize test. We are intersecting the FMF of any
FPMathOperator there, so if a phi is not properly annotated, new math
instructions may not be either. Once we fix the propagation in SimplifyCFG, it
may be safe to remove that hack.

of (hopefully) all the llvm::make_unique instances across the monorepo.
llvm-svn: 369013
Summary:
This is a tweak to r368311 and r368646 which auto upgrades the calls to
objc runtime functions to objc runtime intrinsics, in order to make sure
that the auto upgrader does not trigger with up-to-date bitcode.
It is possible for bitcode that is up-to-date to contain direct calls to
objc runtime function and those are not inserted by compiler as part of
ARC and they should not be upgraded. Now auto upgrader only triggers as
when the old style of ARC marker is used so it is guaranteed that it
won't trigger on update-to-date bitcode.
This also means it won't do this upgrade for bitcode from llvm-8 and
llvm-9, which preserves the behavior of those releases. Ideally they
should be upgraded as well but it is more important to make sure
AutoUpgrader will not trigger on up-to-date bitcode.

converts calls to ARC runtime functions that are not intrinsic functions

external file path, remark version
* a remark block: type, remark name, pass name, function name, debug

A string table is required for this format, which will be dumped in the

It is similar in principle to HWASan, which is a software implementation

The new sanitizer does not have a runtime library (it may grow one

At the moment, bitcode files with invalid forward reference can easily
cause the bitcode reader to run out of memory, by creating a forward
reference with a very high index.
We can use the size of the bitcode file as an upper bound, because a
valid bitcode file can never contain more records. This should be
sufficient to fail early in most cases. The only exception is large
files with invalid forward references close to the file size.
There are a couple of clusterfuzz runs that fail with out-of-memory
because of very high forward references and they should be fixed by this
patch.
A concrete example for this is D64507, which causes out-of-memory on
systems with low memory, like the hexagon upstream bots.

There is existing bitcode that we need to support where the structured nature
of pointer types is used to derive the result type of some operation. For
example a GEP's operation and result will be based on its input Type.
When pointers become opaque, the BitcodeReader will still have access to this
information because it's explicitly told how to construct the more complex
types used, but this information will not be attached to any Value that gets
looked up. This changes BitcodeReader so that in all places which use type
information in this manner, it's derived from a side-table rather than from the
Value in question.

The bitstream reader handles errors poorly. This has two effects:
* Bugs in file handling (especially modules) manifest as an "unexpected end of
file" crash
* Users of clang as a library end up aborting because the code unconditionally
calls `report_fatal_error`
The bitstream reader should be more resilient and return Expected / Error as
soon as an error is encountered, not way late like it does now. This patch
starts doing so and adopting the error handling where I think it makes sense.
There's plenty more to do: this patch propagates errors to be minimally useful,
and follow-ups will propagate them further and improve diagnostics.

The original commit did not remap byval types when linking modules, which broke
