In a callback case, a return from internal code, say A, to external runtime can happen. The external runtime can then call back to another internal routine, say B. Making an artificial branch that looks like a return from A to B can confuse the unwinder to treat the instruction before B as the call instruction.

Global initializers may be ConstantArrays. They need to be checked
explicitly, because different-yet-still-equivalent type names may be
used for each, and/or a GEP instruction may appear in one.
The only wrinkle is that we can't process the "blockaddress" arguments
of the callbr until the blocks have been equated. So we force them to be
"unified" before checking.
This was left out when the callbr instruction was added.

Previously dangling samples were represented by INT64_MAX in sample profile while probes never executed were not reported. This was based on an observation that dangling probes were only at a smaller portion than zero-count probes. However, with compiler optimizations, dangling probes end up becoming at large portion of all probes in general and reporting them does not make sense from profile size point of view. This change flips sample reporting by reporting zero-count probes instead. This enabled dangling probe to be represented by none (missing entry in profile). This has a couple benefits:
1. Reducing sample profile size in optimize mode, even when the number of non-executed probes outperform the number of dangling probes, since INT64_MAX takes more space over 0 to encode.
2. Binary size savings. No need to encode dangling probe anymore, since missing probes are treated as dangling in the profile reader.
3. Reducing compiler work to track dangling probes. However, for probes that are real dead and removed, we still need the compiler to identify them so that they can be reported as zero-count, instead of mistreated as dangling probes.
4. Improving counts quality by respecting the counts already collected on the non-dangling copy of a probe. A probe, when duplicated, gets two copies at runtime. If one of them is dangling while the other is not, merging the two probes at profile generation time will cause the real samples collected on the non-dangling one to be discarded. Not reporting the dangling counterpart will keep the real samples.
5. Better readability.
6. Be consistent with non-CS dwarf line number based profile. Zero counts are trusted by the compiler counts inferencer while missing counts will be inferred by the compiler.
Note that the current patch does include any work for #3. There will be follow-up changes.
For #1, I've seen for a large Facebook service, the text profile is reduced by 7%. For extbinary profile, the size of LBRProfileSection is reduced by 35%.

complex and it’s difficult to fully capture its behaviour with tablegen. The
CustomBehaviour class (which I will refer to as CB frequently) is designed to
provide intuitive scaffolding for developers to implement the correct modelling
for these instructions.
Implementation details:
llvm-mca does its best to extract relevant register, resource, and memory
information from every MCInst when lowering them to an mca::Instruction. It then
uses this information to detect dependencies and simulate stalls within the
pipeline. For some instructions, the information that gets captured within the
mca::Instruction is not enough for mca to simulate them properly. In these
cases, there are two main possibilities:
1. The instruction has a dependency that isn’t detected by mca.
2. mca is incorrectly enforcing a dependency that shouldn’t exist.
For the rest of this discussion, I will be focusing on (1), but I have put some
thought into (2) and I may revisit it in the future.
So we have an instruction that has dependencies that aren’t picked up by mca.
The basic idea for both pipelines in mca is that when an instruction wants to be
dispatched, we first check for register hazards and then we check for resource
hazards. This is where CB is injected. If no register or resource hazards have
been detected, we make a call to CustomBehaviour::checkCustomHazard() to give
the target specific CB the chance to detect and enforce any custom dependencies.
The return value for checkCustomHazaard() is an unsigned int representing the
(minimum) number of cycles that the instruction needs to stall for. It’s fine to
underestimate this value because when StallCycles gets down to 0, we’ll end up
checking for all the hazards again before the instruction is actually
dispatched. However, it’s important not to overestimate the value and the more
accurate your estimate is, the more efficient mca’s execution can be.
In general, for checkCustomHazard() to be able to detect these custom
dependencies, it needs information about the current instruction and also all of
the instructions that are still executing within the pipeline. The mca pipeline
uses mca::Instruction rather than MCInst and the current information encoded
within each mca::Instruction isn’t sufficient for my use cases. I had to add a
few extra attributes to the mca::Instruction class and have them get set by the
MCInst during instruction building. For example, the current mca::Instruction
doesn’t know its opcode, and it also doesn’t know anything about its immediate
operands (both of which I had to add to the class).
With information about the current instruction, a list of all currently
executing instructions, and some target specific objects (MCSubtargetInfo and
MCInstrInfo which the base CB class has references to), developers should be
able to detect and enforce most custom dependencies within checkCustomHazard. If
you need more information than is present in the mca::Instruction, feel free to
add attributes to that class and have them set during the lowering sequence from
MCInst.
Fortunately, in the in-order pipeline, it’s very convenient for us to pass these
arguments to checkCustomHazard. The hazard checking is taken care of within
InOrderIssueStage::canExecute(). This function takes a const InstRef as a
parameter (representing the instruction that currently wants to be dispatched)
and the InOrderIssueStage class maintains a SmallVector<InstRef, 4> which holds
all of the currently executing instructions. For the out-of-order pipeline, it’s
a bit trickier to get the list of executing instructions and this is why I have
held off on implementing it myself. This is the main topic I will bring up when
I eventually make a post to discuss and ask for feedback.
CB is a base class where targets implement their own derived classes. If a
target specific CB does not exist (or we pass in the -disable-cb flag), the base
class is used. This base class trivially returns 0 from its checkCustomHazard()
implementation (meaning that the current instruction needs to stall for 0 cycles
aka no hazard is detected). For this reason, targets or users who choose not to
use CB shouldn’t see any negative impacts to accuracy or performance (in
comparison to pre-patch llvm-mca).

Since this only comes up with inputs containing sections at least 4GB
large (I guess I could use a bzero section or something, so the input
file doesn't have to be 4GB, but even then the output file would have to
be 4GB, right?) I've skipped testing this. If there's a nice way to test
this without needing 4GB inputs or output files.
The subtlety here is demonstrated by this code:
struct t { operator uint64_t(); };
static_assert(std::is_same_v<int, decltype(std::declval<bool>() ? 0 : std::declval<t>())>);
static_assert(std::is_same_v<uint64_t, decltype(std::declval<bool>() ? 0 : std::declval<uint64_t>())>);
Because of this difference, the original source code was getting an int
type (truncating the actual size) and then extending it again, resulting
in bogus values (I haven't thought through this hard enough to explain
why the resulting value was 0xffff... - sign extension, possible UB, but
in any case it's the wrong answer - in this particular case I was
looking at that resulted in a size so large that we couldn't open a file
large enough to write to and ended up with a rather vague:
error: 'file_name.o': Invalid argument
IHexWriter was evaluating a section's physical address when deciding if
that section should be written to an output. This approach does not
account for a zero-sized section that has the same physical address as a
sized section. The behavior varies from GNU objcopy, and may result in a
HEX file that does not include all program sections.
The IHexWriter now excludes zero-sized sections when deciding what
should be written to the output. This affects the contents of the
writer's `Sections` collection; we will not try to insert multiple
sections that could have the same physical address. The behavior seems
consistent with GNU objcopy, which always excludes empty sections,
no matter the address.
The new test case evaluates the IHexWriter behavior when provided a
variety of empty sections that overlap or append a filled section. See
the input file's comments for more information. Given that test input,
and the change to the IHexWriter, GNU objcopy and llvm-objcopy produce
the same output.

What does it tell us?
So wait, it can only execute ~3 x86 AVX YMM PXOR zero-idioms per cycle?
That doesn't seem right. That's even less than there are pipes supporting this type of op.
Now, second example:
```
$ ./bin/llvm-exegesis --mode=inverse_throughput --snippets-file=/tmp/snippet.s --num-repetitions=1000000 --repetition-mode=loop
Check generated assembly with: /usr/bin/objdump -d /tmp/snippet-2418b5.o

info: ''
assembled_snippet: 49B80800000000000000C5FDEFC0C5FDEFC04983C0FF75F2C3
...
```
Now that's just worse. Due to the looping, the throughput completely plummeted,
and now we can only do a single instruction/cycle!?
That's not great.
And final example:
```
$ ./bin/llvm-exegesis --mode=inverse_throughput --snippets-file=/tmp/snippet.s --num-repetitions=1000000 --repetition-mode=loop --loop-body-size=1000
Check generated assembly with: /usr/bin/objdump -d /tmp/snippet-c402e2.o
---
mode: inverse_throughput
key:
instructions:
- 'VPXORYrr YMM0 YMM0 YMM0'
config: ''
register_initial_values: []
cpu_name: znver3
llvm_triple: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
num_repetitions: 1000000
measurements:
- { key: inverse_throughput, value: 0.167087, per_snippet_value: 0.167087 }
error: ''
info: ''
assembled_snippet: 49B80800000000000000C5FDEFC0C5FDEFC04983C0FF75F2C3
...
```
So if we merge the previous two approaches, do duplicate this single-instruction snippet 1000x
(loop-body-size/instruction count in snippet), and run a loop with 1000 iterations
over that duplicated/unrolled snippet, the measured throughput goes through the roof,
up to 5.9 instructions/cycle, which finally tells us that this idiom is zero-cycle!

The Mach-O object file format is limited to 4GB because its used of
32-bit offsets in the header. It is possible for dsymutil to (silently)
emit an invalid binary. Instead of having consumers deal with this, emit
an error instead.
Fixing an issue where samples collected for an untrackable frame is not reported. An untrackable frame refers to a frame whose caller is untrackable due to missing debug info or pseudo probe. Though the frame is connected to its parent frame through the frame pointer chain at runtime, the compiler cannot build the connection without debug info or pseudo probe. In such case we just need to report the untrackable frame as the base frame and all of its child frames.
With more samples reported I'm seeing this improves the performance of an internal benchmark by 2.5%.

In order to create the code regions for llvm-mca to analyze, llvm-mca creates an
AsmCodeRegionGenerator and calls AsmCodeRegionGenerator::parseCodeRegions().
Within this function, both an MCAsmParser and MCTargetAsmParser are created so
that MCAsmParser::Run() can be used to create the code regions for us.
These parser classes were created for llvm-mc so they are designed to emit code
with an MCStreamer and MCTargetStreamer that are expected to be setup and passed
into the MCAsmParser constructor. Because llvm-mca doesn’t want to emit any
code, an MCStreamerWrapper class gets created instead and passed into the
MCAsmParser constructor. This wrapper inherits from MCStreamer and overrides
many of the emit methods to just do nothing. The exception is the
emitInstruction() method which calls Regions.addInstruction(Inst).
This works well and allows llvm-mca to utilize llvm-mc’s MCAsmParser to build
our code regions, however there are a few directives which rely on the
MCTargetStreamer. llvm-mc assumes that the MCStreamer that gets passed into the
MCAsmParser’s constructor has a valid pointer to an MCTargetStreamer. Because
llvm-mca doesn’t setup an MCTargetStreamer, when the parser encounters one of
those directives, a segfault will occur.
In x86, each one of these 7 directives will cause this segfault if they exist in
the input assembly to llvm-mca:
.cv_fpo_proc
.cv_fpo_setframe
.cv_fpo_pushreg
.cv_fpo_stackalloc
.cv_fpo_stackalign
.cv_fpo_endprologue
.cv_fpo_endproc
I haven’t looked at other targets, but I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the
other ones also have certain directives which could result in this same
segfault.
My proposed solution is to simply initialize an MCTargetStreamer after we
initialize the MCStreamerWrapper. The MCTargetStreamer requires an ostream
object, but we don’t actually want any of these directives to be emitted
anywhere, so I use an ostream created with the nulls() function. Since this
needs to happen after the MCStreamerWrapper has been initialized, it needs to
happen within the AsmCodeRegionGenerator::parseCodeRegions() function. The
MCTargetStreamer also needs an MCInstPrinter which is easiest to initialize
within the main() function of llvm-mca. So this MCInstPrinter gets constructed
within main() then passed into the parseCodeRegions() function as a parameter.
(If you feel like it would be appropriate and possible to create the
MCInstPrinter within the parseCodeRegions() function, then feel free to modify
my solution. That would stop us from having to pass it into the function and
would limit its scope / lifetime.)
My solution stops the segfault from happening and still passes all of the
current (expected) llvm-mca tests. I also added a new test for x86 that checks
for this segfault on an input that includes one of the .cv_fpo directives (this
test fails without my solution, but passes with it).
As far as I can tell, all of the functions that I modified are only called from
within llvm-mca so there shouldn’t be any worries about breaking other tools.

Also it adds LLVM_HAVE_LIBXAR to LLVMConfig.cmake and links liblldMachO2.so

In an ELF shared object, a default visibility defined symbol is preemptible by
default. This creates some missed optimization opportunities.
-Bsymbolic-functions is more aggressive than our current -fvisibility-inlines-hidden
(present since 2012) as it applies to all function definitions. It can
* avoid PLT for cross-TU function calls && reduce dynamic symbol lookup
* reduce dynamic symbol lookup for taking function addresses and optimize out GOT/TOC on x86-64/ppc64
In a -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD=X86 build, the number of JUMP_SLOT decreases from 12716 to 1628, and the number of GLOB_DAT decreases from 1918 to 1313
The built clang with `-DLLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB=on -DCLANG_LINK_CLANG_DYLIB=on` is significantly faster.
See the Linux kernel build result https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/70697
Note: the performance of -fno-semantic-interposition -Bsymbolic-functions
libLLVM.so and libclang-cpp.so is close to a PIE binary linking against
`libLLVM*.a` and `libclang*.a`. When the host compiler is Clang,
-Bsymbolic-functions is the major contributor. On x86-64 (with GOTPCRELX) and
ppc64 ELFv2, the GOT/TOC relocations can be optimized.
Some implication:
Interposing a subset of functions is no longer supported.
(This is fragile on ELF and unsupported on Mach-O at all. For Mach-O we don't
use `ld -interpose` or `-flat_namespace`)
Compiling a program which takes the address of any LLVM function with
`{gcc,clang} -fno-pic` and expects the address to equal to the address taken
from libLLVM.so or libclang-cpp.so is unsupported. I am fairly confident that
llvm-project shouldn't have different behaviors depending on such pointer
equality (as we've been using -fvisibility-inlines-hidden which applies to
inline functions for a long time), but if we accidentally do, users should be
aware that they should not make assumption on pointer equality in `-fno-pic`
mode.

`__mh_(execute|dylib|dylinker|bundle|preload|object)_header` are special symbols whose values hold the VMA of the Mach header to support introspection. They are attached to the first section in `__TEXT`, even though their addresses are outside `__TEXT`, and they do not refer to code.
It is normally harmless, but when the first section of `__TEXT` has no other symbols, `__mh_*_header` is considered by the disassembler when determing function boundaries. Since `__mh_*_header` refers to an address outside `__TEXT`, the boundary determination fails and disassembly quits.
Since `__TEXT,__text` normally has symbols, this bug is obscured. Experiments placing `__stubs` and `__stub_helper` first exposed the bug, since neither has symbols.
