This makes it more robust when assertions are disabled,
crashing instead of causing UB.
Also introduces a tidy check to enforce this rule,
which in turn necessitated making tidy run on src/rustllvm.
Fixes#44020
This is a big hammer, but should be effective at completely removing a
few issues, including inconsistent error messages and segfaults when
LLVM workers race to report results
LLVM_THREAD_LOCAL has been present in LLVM since 8 months before 3.7

This commit is a refactoring of the LTO backend in Rust to support compilations
with multiple codegen units. The immediate result of this PR is to remove the
artificial error emitted by rustc about `-C lto -C codegen-units-8`, but longer
term this is intended to lay the groundwork for LTO with incremental compilation
and ultimately be the underpinning of ThinLTO support.
The problem here that needed solving is that when rustc is producing multiple
codegen units in one compilation LTO needs to merge them all together.
Previously only upstream dependencies were merged and it was inherently relied
on that there was only one local codegen unit. Supporting this involved
refactoring the optimization backend architecture for rustc, namely splitting
the `optimize_and_codegen` function into `optimize` and `codegen`. After an LLVM
module has been optimized it may be blocked and queued up for LTO, and only
after LTO are modules code generated.
Non-LTO compilations should look the same as they do today backend-wise, we'll
spin up a thread for each codegen unit and optimize/codegen in that thread. LTO
compilations will, however, send the LLVM module back to the coordinator thread
once optimizations have finished. When all LLVM modules have finished optimizing
the coordinator will invoke the LTO backend, producing a further list of LLVM
modules. Currently this is always a list of one LLVM module. The coordinator
then spawns further work to run LTO and code generation passes over each module.
In the course of this refactoring a number of other pieces were refactored:
* Management of the bytecode encoding in rlibs was centralized into one module
instead of being scattered across LTO and linking.
* Some internal refactorings on the link stage of the compiler was done to work
directly from `CompiledModule` structures instead of lists of paths.
* The trans time-graph output was tweaked a little to include a name on each
bar and inflate the size of the bars a little
When -Z profile is passed, the GCDAProfiling LLVM pass is added
to the pipeline, which uses debug information to instrument the IR.
After compiling with -Z profile, the $(OUT_DIR)/$(CRATE_NAME).gcno
file is created, containing initial profiling information.
After running the program built, the $(OUT_DIR)/$(CRATE_NAME).gcda
file is created, containing branch counters.
The created *.gcno and *.gcda files can be processed using
the "llvm-cov gcov" and "lcov" tools. The profiling data LLVM
generates does not faithfully follow the GCC's format for *.gcno
and *.gcda files, and so it will probably not work with other tools
(such as gcov itself) that consume these files.
[MIR] SwitchInt Everywhere
Something I've been meaning to do for a very long while. This PR essentially gets rid of 3 kinds of conditional branching and only keeps the most general one - `SwitchInt`. Primary benefits are such that dealing with MIR now does not involve dealing with 3 different ways to do conditional control flow. On the other hand, constructing a `SwitchInt` currently requires more code than what previously was necessary to build an equivalent `If` terminator. Something trivially "fixable" with some constructor methods somewhere (MIR needs stuff like that badly in general).
Some timings (tl;dr: slightly faster^1 (unexpected), but also uses slightly more memory at peak (expected)):
^1: Not sure if the speed benefits are because of LLVM liking the generated code better or the compiler itself getting compiled better. Either way, its a net benefit. The CORE and SYNTAX timings done for compilation without optimisation.

Emit DW_AT_main_subprogram
This changes rustc to emit DW_AT_main_subprogram on the "main" program.
This lets gdb suitably stop at the user's main in response to
"start" (rather than the library's main, which is what happens
currently).

Instead of directly creating a 'DIGlobalVariable', we now have to create
a 'DIGlobalVariableExpression' which itself contains a reference to a
'DIGlobalVariable'.
This is a straightforward change.
In the future, we should rename 'DIGlobalVariable' in the FFI
bindings, assuming we will only refer to 'DIGlobalVariableExpression'
and not 'DIGlobalVariable'.
LLVM Core C bindings provide this function for all the versions back to what we support (3.7), and
helps to avoid this unnecessary builder->function transition every time. Also a negative diff.
These switch statements cover all possible values, so the default case
is dead code (it contains an llvm_unreachable anyway), triggering a
-Wcovered-switch-default warning. Moving the unreachable after the
switch resolves these warnings. This keeps the build output clean.
Improve naming style in rustllvm.
As per the LLVM style guide, use CamelCase for all locals and classes,
and camelCase for all non-FFI functions.
Also, make names of variables of commonly used types more consistent.

i128 and u128 support
Brings i128 and u128 support to nightly rust, behind a feature flag. The goal of this PR is to do the bulk of the work for 128 bit integer support. Smaller but just as tricky features needed for stabilisation like 128 bit enum discriminants are left for future PRs.
Rebased version of #37900, which in turn was a rebase + improvement of #35954 . Sadly I couldn't reopen#37900 due to github. There goes my premium position in the homu queue...

This teaches Rust about an LLVM 4.0 API change for creating debug info
for global variables.
This change was made in upstream LLVM patch https://reviews.llvm.org/D20147

In LLVM 4.0, this enum becomes an actual type-safe enum, which breaks
all of the interfaces. Introduce our own copy of the bitflags that we
can then safely convert to the LLVM one.
StringRefs have a length and their contents are not usually null-terminated.
The solution is to either copy the string data (in rustc_llvm::diagnostic) or take the size into account (in LLVMRustPrintPasses).
I couldn't trigger a bug caused by this (apparently all the strings returned in practice are actually null-terminated) but this is more correct and more future-proof.
The librustc_llvm API remains mostly unchanged, except that llvm::Attribute is no longer a bitflag but represents only a *single* attribute.
The ability to store many attributes in a small number of bits and modify them without interacting with LLVM is only used in rustc_trans::abi and closely related modules, and only attributes for function arguments are considered there.
Thus rustc_trans::abi now has its own bit-packed representation of argument attributes, which are translated to rustc_llvm::Attribute when applying the attributes.
The `Linkage` enum in librustc_llvm got out of sync with the version in LLVM and it caused two variants of the #[linkage=""] attribute to break.
This adds the functions `LLVMRustGetLinkage` and `LLVMRustSetLinkage` which convert between the Rust Linkage enum and the LLVM one, which should stop this from breaking every time LLVM changes it.
Fixes#33992
Macro expansions produce code tagged with debug locations that are completely different from the surrounding expressions. This wrecks havoc on debugger's ability the step over source lines.
In order to have a good line stepping behavior in debugger, we overwrite debug locations of macro expansions with that of the outermost expansion site.
When reuing a definition across codegen units, we obviously cannot use
internal linkage, but using external linkage means that we can end up
with multiple conflicting definitions of a single symbol across
multiple crates. Since the definitions should all be equal
semantically, we can use weak_odr linkage to resolve the situation.
Fixes#32518
We use a 64bit integer to pass the set of attributes that is to be
removed, but the called C function expects a 32bit integer. On most
platforms this doesn't cause any problems other than being unable to
unset some attributes, but on ARM even the lower 32bit aren't handled
correctly because the 64bit value is passed in different registers, so
the C function actually sees random garbage.
So we need to fix the relevant functions to use 32bit integers instead.
Additionally we need an implementation that actually accepts 64bit
integers because some attributes can only be unset that way.
Fixes#32360
`fast` a.k.a UnsafeAlgebra is the flag for enabling all "unsafe"
(according to llvm) float optimizations.
See LangRef for more information http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#fast-math-flags
Providing these operations with less precise associativity rules (for
example) is useful to numerical applications.
For example, the summation loop:
let sum = 0.;
for element in data {
sum += *element;
}
Using the default floating point semantics, this loop expresses the
floats must be added in a sequence, one after another. This constraint
is usually completely unintended, and it means that no autovectorization
is possible.
Hopefully the author caught all the cases. For the mir_dynamic_drops_3 test case the ratio of
memsets to other instructions is 12%. On the other hand we actually do not double drop for at least
the test cases provided anymore in MIR.
Rust currently emits atomic loads and stores with the LLVM `volatile` qualifier. This is unnecessary and prevents LLVM from performing optimization on these atomic operations.
This commit transitions the compiler to using the new exception handling
instructions in LLVM for implementing unwinding for MSVC. This affects both 32
and 64-bit MSVC as they're both now using SEH-based strategies. In terms of
standard library support, lots more details about how SEH unwinding is
implemented can be found in the commits.
In terms of trans, this change necessitated a few modifications:
* Branches were added to detect when the old landingpad instruction is used or
the new cleanuppad instruction is used to `trans::cleanup`.
* The return value from `cleanuppad` is not stored in an `alloca` (because it
cannot be).
* Each block in trans now has an `Option<LandingPad>` instead of `is_lpad: bool`
for indicating whether it's in a landing pad or not. The new exception
handling intrinsics require that on MSVC each `call` inside of a landing pad
is annotated with which landing pad that it's in. This change to the basic
block means that whenever a `call` or `invoke` instruction is generated we
know whether to annotate it as part of a cleanuppad or not.
* Lots of modifications were made to the instruction builders to construct the
new instructions as well as pass the tagging information for the call/invoke
instructions.
* The translation of the `try` intrinsics for MSVC has been overhauled to use
the new `catchpad` instruction. The filter function is now also a
rustc-generated function instead of a purely libstd-defined function. The
libstd definition still exists, it just has a stable ABI across architectures
and leaves some of the really weird implementation details to the compiler
(e.g. the `localescape` and `localrecover` intrinsics).
This brings some routine upgrades to the bundled LLVM that we're using, the most
notable of which is a bug fix to the way we handle range asserts when loading
the discriminant of an enum. This fix ended up being very similar to f9d4149c
where we basically can't have a range assert when loading a discriminant due to
filling drop, and appropriate flags were added to communicate this to
`trans::adt`.
Travis CI has new infrastructure using the Google Compute Engine which has both
faster CPUs and more memory, and we've been encouraged to switch as it should
help our build times! The only downside currently, however, is that IPv6 is
disabled, causing a number of standard library tests to fail.
Consequently this commit tweaks our travis config in a few ways:
* ccache is disabled as it's not working on GCE just yet
* Docker is used to run tests inside which reportedly will get IPv6 working
* A system LLVM installation is used instead of building LLVM itself. This is
primarily done to reduce build times, but we want automation for this sort of
behavior anyway and we can extend this in the future with building from source
as well if needed.
* gcc-specific logic is removed as the docker image for Ubuntu gives us a
recent-enough gcc by default.
This commit moves the IR files in the distribution, rust_try.ll,
rust_try_msvc_64.ll, and rust_try_msvc_32.ll into the compiler from the main
distribution. There's a few reasons for this change:
* LLVM changes its IR syntax from time to time, so it's very difficult to
have these files build across many LLVM versions simultaneously. We'll likely
want to retain this ability for quite some time into the future.
* The implementation of these files is closely tied to the compiler and runtime
itself, so it makes sense to fold it into a location which can do more
platform-specific checks for various implementation details (such as MSVC 32
vs 64-bit).
* This removes LLVM as a build-time dependency of the standard library. This may
end up becoming very useful if we move towards building the standard library
with Cargo.
In the immediate future, however, this commit should restore compatibility with
LLVM 3.5 and 3.6.
The C API of this function changed so it no longer takes a personality function.
A shim was introduced to call the right LLVM function (depending on which
version we're compiled against) to set the personality function on the outer
function.
The compiler only ever sets one personality function for all generated
functions, so this should be equivalent.
We have previously always relied upon an external tool, `ar`, to modify archives
that the compiler produces (staticlibs, rlibs, etc). This approach, however, has
a number of downsides:
* Spawning a process is relatively expensive for small compilations
* Encoding arguments across process boundaries often incurs unnecessary overhead
or lossiness. For example `ar` has a tough time dealing with files that have
the same name in archives, and the compiler copies many files around to ensure
they can be passed to `ar` in a reasonable fashion.
* Most `ar` programs found do **not** have the ability to target arbitrary
platforms, so this is an extra tool which needs to be found/specified when
cross compiling.
The LLVM project has had a tool called `llvm-ar` for quite some time now, but it
wasn't available in the standard LLVM libraries (it was just a standalone
program). Recently, however, in LLVM 3.7, this functionality has been moved to a
library and is now accessible by consumers of LLVM via the `writeArchive`
function.
This commit migrates our archive bindings to no longer invoke `ar` by default
but instead make a library call to LLVM to do various operations. This solves
all of the downsides listed above:
* Archive management is now much faster, for example creating a "hello world"
staticlib is now 6x faster (50ms => 8ms). Linking dynamic libraries also
recently started requiring modification of rlibs, and linking a hello world
dynamic library is now 2x faster.
* The compiler is now one step closer to "hassle free" cross compilation because
no external tool is needed for managing archives, LLVM does the right thing!
This commit does not remove support for calling a system `ar` utility currently.
We will continue to maintain compatibility with LLVM 3.5 and 3.6 looking forward
(so the system LLVM can be used wherever possible), and in these cases we must
shell out to a system utility. All nightly builds of Rust, however, will stop
needing a system `ar`.
This commit updates the LLVM submodule in use to the current HEAD of the LLVM
repository. This is primarily being done to start picking up unwinding support
for MSVC, which is currently unimplemented in the revision of LLVM we are using.
Along the way a few changes had to be made:
* As usual, lots of C++ debuginfo bindings in LLVM changed, so there were some
significant changes to our RustWrapper.cpp
* As usual, some pass management changed in LLVM, so clang was re-scrutinized to
ensure that we're doing the same thing as clang.
* Some optimization options are now passed directly into the
`PassManagerBuilder` instead of through CLI switches to LLVM.
* The `NoFramePointerElim` option was removed from LLVM, favoring instead the
`no-frame-pointer-elim` function attribute instead.
Additionally, LLVM has picked up some new optimizations which required fixing an
existing soundness hole in the IR we generate. It appears that the current LLVM
we use does not expose this hole. When an enum is moved, the previous slot in
memory is overwritten with a bit pattern corresponding to "dropped". When the
drop glue for this slot is run, however, the switch on the discriminant can
often start executing the `unreachable` block of the switch due to the
discriminant now being outside the normal range. This was patched over locally
for now by having the `unreachable` block just change to a `ret void`.
This commit introduce a third parameter for compatible_ifn!, as new
intrinsics are being added in recent LLVM releases and there is no
need to hardcode a specific case.

For imports of constants across DLLs to work on Windows it *requires* that the
import be marked with `dllimport` (unlike functions where the marker is
optional, but strongly recommended). This currently isn't working for importing
FFI constants across boundaries, however, so the one constant exported from
`rustc_llvm.dll` is now a function to be called instead.
These new intrinsics are comparable to `atomic_signal_fence` in C++,
ensuring the compiler will not reorder memory accesses across the
barrier, nor will it emit any machine instructions for it.
Closes#24118, implementing RFC 888.
When linking an archive statically to an rlib, the compiler will extract all
contents of the archive and add them all to the rlib being generated. The
current method of extraction is to run `ar x`, dumping all files into a
temporary directory. Object archives, however, are allowed to have multiple
entries with the same file name, so there is no method for them to extract their
contents into a directory in a lossless fashion.
This commit adds iterator support to the `ArchiveRO` structure which hooks into
LLVM's support for reading object archives. This iterator is then used to
inspect each object in turn and extract it to a unique location for later
assembly.
LLVM older that 3.6 has a bug that cause assertions when compiling certain
constructs. For 3.5 there's still a chance that the bug might get fixed
in 3.5.2, so let's keep allowing to compile with it for it for now.
Apparently the default getFile implementation for a memory buffer in LLVM ends
up requiring a null terminator at the end of the file. This isn't true a good
bit of the time apparently on OSX. There have been a number of failed
nightly/snapshot builds recently with this strange assertion.
This modifies the calls to MemoryBuffer::getFile to explicitly not ask for a
null terminator.
