Currently, GlobalObject has an "alignment" property... but it's
basically nonsense: alignment doesn't mean the same thing for variables
and functions, and it's completely meaningless for ifuncs.
This "removes" (actually marking protected) the methods from
GlobalObject, adds the relevant methods to Function and GlobalVariable,
and adjusts the code appropriately.
This should make future alignment-related cleanups easier.
These are identified by misc-include-cleaner. I've filtered out those
that break builds. Also, I'm staying away from llvm-config.h,
config.h, and Compiler.h, which likely cause platform- or
compiler-specific build failures.
try_emplace can default-construct values, so we do not need to do so
on our own. Plus, try_emplace(Key) is much shorter than
insert(std::make_pair(Key, Value()).
The module currently stores the target triple as a string. This means
that any code that wants to actually use the triple first has to
instantiate a Triple, which is somewhat expensive. The change in #121652
caused a moderate compile-time regression due to this. While it would be
easy enough to work around, I think that architecturally, it makes more
sense to store the parsed Triple in the module, so that it can always be
directly queried.
For this change, I've opted not to add any magic conversions between
std::string and Triple for backwards-compatibilty purses, and instead
write out needed Triple()s or str()s explicitly. This is because I think
a decent number of them should be changed to work on Triple as well, to
avoid unnecessary conversions back and forth.
The only interesting part in this patch is that the default triple is
Triple("") instead of Triple() to preserve existing behavior. The former
defaults to using the ELF object format instead of unknown object
format. We should fix that as well.
On AIX, for undefined functions, only the dotnamed symbols (the address
of the function) are generated after linking (i.e., no named function
symbol is generated).
Currently, all alias symbols are added as defined data symbols when
parsing symbols in LTOModule (the Link Time Optimization library used by
linker to optimization code at link time). On AIX, if the function alias
is used in the native object, and only its dotnamed symbol is generated,
the linker will have problem to match the dotnamed symbol from the
native object and the defined symbol marked as data from the bitcode at
LTO linktime.
This patch is to add function alias as function instead of data.
I'm planning to remove StringRef::equals in favor of
StringRef::operator==.
- StringRef::operator==/!= outnumber StringRef::equals by a factor of
70 under llvm/ in terms of their usage.
- The elimination of StringRef::equals brings StringRef closer to
std::string_view, which has operator== but not equals.
- S == "foo" is more readable than S.equals("foo"), especially for
!Long.Expression.equals("str") vs Long.Expression != "str".
This patch replaces uses of StringRef::{starts,ends}with with
StringRef::{starts,ends}_with for consistency with
std::{string,string_view}::{starts,ends}_with in C++20.
I'm planning to deprecate and eventually remove
StringRef::{starts,ends}with.
SubtargetFeature.h is currently part of MC while it doesn't depend on
anything in MC. Since some LLVM components might have the need to work
with target features without necessarily needing MC, it might be
worthwhile to move SubtargetFeature.h to a different location. This will
reduce the dependencies of said components.
Note that I choose TargetParser as the destination because that's where
Triple lives and SubtargetFeatures feels related to that.
This issues came up during a JITLink review (D149522). JITLink would
like to avoid a dependency on MC while still needing to store target
features.

On AIX, the linker needs to check whether a given lto_module_t contains
any constructor/destructor functions, in order to implement the behavior
of the -bcdtors:all flag. See
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/aix/7.2?topic=l-ld-command for the flag's

In llvm IR, constructor (destructor) functions are added to a special

However, because these two symbols are artificial, they are not visited
during the symbol traversal (using the

All these potential null pointer dereferences are reported by my static analyzer for null smart pointer dereferences, which has a different implementation from `alpha.cplusplus.SmartPtr`.
The checked pointers in this patch are initialized by Target::createXXX functions. When the creator function pointer is not correctly set, a null pointer will be returned, or the creator function may originally return a null pointer.
Some of them may not make sense as they may be checked before entering the function, but I fixed them all in this patch. I submit this fix because 1) similar checks are found in some other places in the LLVM codebase for the same return value of the function; and, 2) some of the pointers are dereferenced before they are checked, which may definitely trigger a null pointer dereference if the return value is nullptr.

Summary:
On Windows, Posix integer file descriptors are a compatibility layer
over native file handles provided by the C runtime. There is a hard
limit on the maximum number of file descriptors that a process can open,
and the limit is 8192. LLD typically doesn't run into this limit because
it opens input files, maps them into memory, and then immediately closes
the file descriptor. This prevents it from running out of FDs.
For various reasons, I'd like to open handles to every input file and
keep them open during linking. That requires migrating MemoryBuffer over
to taking open native file handles instead of integer FDs.

Dependent libraries support for the legacy api was committed in a
broken state (see: https://reviews.llvm.org/D60274). This was missed
due to the painful nature of having to integrate the changes into a
linker in order to test. This change implements support for dependent
libraries in the legacy LTO api:
- I have removed the current api function, which returns a single
string, and added functions to access each dependent library
specifier individually.
- To reduce the testing pain, I have made the api functions as thin as
possible to maximize coverage from llvm-lto.
- When doing ThinLTO the system linker will load the modules lazily
when scanning the input files. Unfortunately, when modules are
lazily loaded there is no access to module level named metadata. To
fix this I have added api functions that allow querying the IRSymtab
for the dependent libraries. I hope to expand the api in the future
so that, eventually, all the information needed by a client linker
during scan can be retrieved from the IRSymtab.

This patch implements a limited form of autolinking primarily designed to allow
either the --dependent-library compiler option, or "comment lib" pragmas (
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/preprocessor/comment-c-cpp?view=vs-2017) in
C/C++ e.g. #pragma comment(lib, "foo"), to cause an ELF linker to automatically
add the specified library to the link when processing the input file generated
by the compiler.
Currently this extension is unique to LLVM and LLD. However, care has been taken
to design this feature so that it could be supported by other ELF linkers.
The design goals were to provide:
- A simple linking model for developers to reason about.
- The ability to to override autolinking from the linker command line.
- Source code compatibility, where possible, with "comment lib" pragmas in other
environments (MSVC in particular).
Dependent library support is implemented differently for ELF platforms than on
the other platforms. Primarily this difference is that on ELF we pass the
dependent library specifiers directly to the linker without manipulating them.
This is in contrast to other platforms where they are mapped to a specific
linker option by the compiler. This difference is a result of the greater
variety of ELF linkers and the fact that ELF linkers tend to handle libraries in
a more complicated fashion than on other platforms. This forces us to defer
handling the specifiers to the linker.
In order to achieve a level of source code compatibility with other platforms
we have restricted this feature to work with libraries that meet the following
"reasonable" requirements:
1. There are no competing defined symbols in a given set of libraries, or
if they exist, the program owner doesn't care which is linked to their
program.
2. There may be circular dependencies between libraries.
The binary representation is a mergeable string section (SHF_MERGE,
SHF_STRINGS), called .deplibs, with custom type SHT_LLVM_DEPENDENT_LIBRARIES
(0x6fff4c04). The compiler forms this section by concatenating the arguments of
the "comment lib" pragmas and --dependent-library options in the order they are
encountered. Partial (-r, -Ur) links are handled by concatenating .deplibs
sections with the normal mergeable string section rules. As an example, #pragma
comment(lib, "foo") would result in:
.section ".deplibs","MS",@llvm_dependent_libraries,1
.asciz "foo"
For LTO, equivalent information to the contents of a the .deplibs section can be
retrieved by the LLD for bitcode input files.
LLD processes the dependent library specifiers in the following way:
1. Dependent libraries which are found from the specifiers in .deplibs sections
of relocatable object files are added when the linker decides to include that
file (which could itself be in a library) in the link. Dependent libraries
behave as if they were appended to the command line after all other options. As
a consequence the set of dependent libraries are searched last to resolve
symbols.
2. It is an error if a file cannot be found for a given specifier.
3. Any command line options in effect at the end of the command line parsing apply
to the dependent libraries, e.g. --whole-archive.
4. The linker tries to add a library or relocatable object file from each of the
strings in a .deplibs section by; first, handling the string as if it was
specified on the command line; second, by looking for the string in each of the
library search paths in turn; third, by looking for a lib<string>.a or
lib<string>.so (depending on the current mode of the linker) in each of the
library search paths.
5. A new command line option --no-dependent-libraries tells LLD to ignore the
dependent libraries.
Rationale for the above points:
1. Adding the dependent libraries last makes the process simple to understand
from a developers perspective. All linkers are able to implement this scheme.
2. Error-ing for libraries that are not found seems like better behavior than
failing the link during symbol resolution.
3. It seems useful for the user to be able to apply command line options which
will affect all of the dependent libraries. There is a potential problem of
surprise for developers, who might not realize that these options would apply
to these "invisible" input files; however, despite the potential for surprise,
this is easy for developers to reason about and gives developers the control
that they may require.
4. This algorithm takes into account all of the different ways that ELF linkers
find input files. The different search methods are tried by the linker in most
obvious to least obvious order.
5. I considered adding finer grained control over which dependent libraries were
ignored (e.g. MSVC has /nodefaultlib:<library>); however, I concluded that this
is not necessary: if finer control is required developers can fall back to using
the command line directly.

Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM

Unique ownership is just one possible ownership pattern for the memory buffer
underlying the bitcode reader. In practice, as this patch shows, ownership can
often reside at a higher level. With the upcoming change to allow multiple
modules in a single bitcode file, it will no longer be appropriate for
modules to generally have unique ownership of their memory buffer.
The C API exposes the ownership relation via the LLVMGetBitcodeModuleInContext
and LLVMGetBitcodeModuleInContext2 functions, so we still need some way for
the module to own the memory buffer. This patch does so by adding an owned
memory buffer field to Module, and using it in a few other places where it
is convenient.
