Rename member 'Size' to 'AllocatedSize' in order to provide a hint that the
allocated size may be different than the requested size. Comments are added to
clarify this point. Updated the InMemoryBuffer in FileOutputBuffer.cpp to track
the requested buffer size.

This patch changes the return type of sys::Process::getPageSize to
Expected<unsigned> to account for the fact that the underlying syscalls used to
obtain the page size may fail (see below).
For clients who use the page size as an optimization only this patch adds a new
method, getPageSizeEstimate, which calls through to getPageSize but discards
any error returned and substitues a "reasonable" page size estimate estimate
instead. All existing LLVM clients are updated to call getPageSizeEstimate
rather than getPageSize.
On Unix, sys::Process::getPageSize is implemented in terms of getpagesize or
sysconf, depending on which macros are set. The sysconf call is documented to
return -1 on failure. On Darwin getpagesize is implemented in terms of sysconf
and may also fail (though the manpage documentation does not mention this).
These failures have been observed in practice when highly restrictive sandbox
permissions have been applied. Without this patch, the result is that
getPageSize returns -1, which wreaks havoc on any subsequent code that was
assuming a sane page size value.

Summary:
JITLink is a jit-linker that performs the same high-level task as RuntimeDyld:
it parses relocatable object files and makes their contents runnable in a target
process.
JITLink aims to improve on RuntimeDyld in several ways:
(1) A clear design intended to maximize code-sharing while minimizing coupling.
RuntimeDyld has been developed in an ad-hoc fashion for a number of years and
this had led to intermingling of code for multiple architectures (e.g. in
RuntimeDyldELF::processRelocationRef) in a way that makes the code more
difficult to read, reason about, extend. JITLink is designed to isolate
format and architecture specific code, while still sharing generic code.
(2) Support for native code models.
RuntimeDyld required the use of large code models (where calls to external
functions are made indirectly via registers) for many of platforms due to its
restrictive model for stub generation (one "stub" per symbol). JITLink allows
arbitrary mutation of the atom graph, allowing both GOT and PLT atoms to be
added naturally.
(3) Native support for asynchronous linking.
JITLink uses asynchronous calls for symbol resolution and finalization: these
callbacks are passed a continuation function that they must call to complete the
linker's work. This allows for cleaner interoperation with the new concurrent
ORC JIT APIs, while still being easily implementable in synchronous style if
asynchrony is not needed.
To maximise sharing, the design has a hierarchy of common code:
(1) Generic atom-graph data structure and algorithms (e.g. dead stripping and
| memory allocation) that are intended to be shared by all architectures.
|
+ -- (2) Shared per-format code that utilizes (1), e.g. Generic MachO to
| atom-graph parsing.
|
+ -- (3) Architecture specific code that uses (1) and (2). E.g.
JITLinkerMachO_x86_64, which adds x86-64 specific relocation
support to (2) to build and patch up the atom graph.
To support asynchronous symbol resolution and finalization, the callbacks for
these operations take continuations as arguments:
using JITLinkAsyncLookupContinuation =
std::function<void(Expected<AsyncLookupResult> LR)>;
using JITLinkAsyncLookupFunction =
std::function<void(const DenseSet<StringRef> &Symbols,
JITLinkAsyncLookupContinuation LookupContinuation)>;
using FinalizeContinuation = std::function<void(Error)>;
virtual void finalizeAsync(FinalizeContinuation OnFinalize);
In addition to its headline features, JITLink also makes other improvements:
- Dead stripping support: symbols that are not used (e.g. redundant ODR
definitions) are discarded, and take up no memory in the target process
(In contrast, RuntimeDyld supported pointer equality for weak definitions,
but the redundant definitions stayed resident in memory).
- Improved exception handling support. JITLink provides a much more extensive
eh-frame parser than RuntimeDyld, and is able to correctly fix up many
eh-frame sections that RuntimeDyld currently (silently) fails on.
- More extensive validation and error handling throughout.
This initial patch supports linking MachO/x86-64 only. Work on support for
other architectures and formats will happen in-tree.
