This is a major change on how we represent nested name qualifications in
the AST.
* The nested name specifier itself and how it's stored is changed. The
prefixes for types are handled within the type hierarchy, which makes
canonicalization for them super cheap, no memory allocation required.
Also translating a type into nested name specifier form becomes a no-op.
An identifier is stored as a DependentNameType. The nested name
specifier gains a lightweight handle class, to be used instead of
passing around pointers, which is similar to what is implemented for
TemplateName. There is still one free bit available, and this handle can
be used within a PointerUnion and PointerIntPair, which should keep
bit-packing aficionados happy.
* The ElaboratedType node is removed, all type nodes in which it could
previously apply to can now store the elaborated keyword and name
qualifier, tail allocating when present.
* TagTypes can now point to the exact declaration found when producing
these, as opposed to the previous situation of there only existing one
TagType per entity. This increases the amount of type sugar retained,
and can have several applications, for example in tracking module
ownership, and other tools which care about source file origins, such as
IWYU. These TagTypes are lazily allocated, in order to limit the
increase in AST size.
This patch offers a great performance benefit.
It greatly improves compilation time for
[stdexec](https://github.com/NVIDIA/stdexec). For one datapoint, for
`test_on2.cpp` in that project, which is the slowest compiling test,
this patch improves `-c` compilation time by about 7.2%, with the
`-fsyntax-only` improvement being at ~12%.
This has great results on compile-time-tracker as well:

This patch also further enables other optimziations in the future, and
will reduce the performance impact of template specialization resugaring
when that lands.
It has some other miscelaneous drive-by fixes.
About the review: Yes the patch is huge, sorry about that. Part of the
reason is that I started by the nested name specifier part, before the
ElaboratedType part, but that had a huge performance downside, as
ElaboratedType is a big performance hog. I didn't have the steam to go
back and change the patch after the fact.
There is also a lot of internal API changes, and it made sense to remove
ElaboratedType in one go, versus removing it from one type at a time, as
that would present much more churn to the users. Also, the nested name
specifier having a different API avoids missing changes related to how
prefixes work now, which could make existing code compile but not work.
How to review: The important changes are all in
`clang/include/clang/AST` and `clang/lib/AST`, with also important
changes in `clang/lib/Sema/TreeTransform.h`.
The rest and bulk of the changes are mostly consequences of the changes
in API.
PS: TagType::getDecl is renamed to `getOriginalDecl` in this patch, just
for easier to rebasing. I plan to rename it back after this lands.

This corrects the codegen for the final class optimization to
correct handle the case where there is no path to perform the
cast, and also corrects the codegen to handle ptrauth protected
vtable pointers.
As part of this fix we separate out the path computation as
that makes it easier to reason about the failure code paths
and more importantly means we can know what the type of the
this object is during the cast.
The allows us to use the GetVTablePointer interface which
correctly performs the authentication operations required when
pointer authentication is enabled. This still leaves incorrect
authentication behavior in the multiple inheritance case but
currently the optimization is disabled entirely if pointer
authentication is enabled.

This extends https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/138577 to more UBSan checks, by changing SanitizerDebugLocation (formerly SanitizerScope) to add annotations if enabled for the specified ordinals.
Annotations will use the ordinal name if there is exactly one ordinal specified in the SanitizerDebugLocation; otherwise, it will use the handler name.

This introduces the attribute discussed in
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-function-type-attribute-to-prevent-cfi-instrumentation/85458.
The proposed name has been changed from `no_cfi` to
`cfi_unchecked_callee` to help differentiate from `no_sanitize("cfi")`
more easily. The proposed attribute has the following semantics:
1. Indirect calls to a function type with this attribute will not be
instrumented with CFI. That is, the indirect call will not be checked.
Note that this only changes the behavior for indirect calls on pointers
to function types having this attribute. It does not prevent all
indirect function calls for a given type from being checked.
2. All direct references to a function whose type has this attribute
will always reference the true function definition rather than an entry
in the CFI jump table.
3. When a pointer to a function with this attribute is implicitly cast
to a pointer to a function without this attribute, the compiler will
give a warning saying this attribute is discarded. This warning can be
silenced with an explicit C-style cast or C++ static_cast.
The IR now includes a global variable for the debugger that holds
the address of the vtable.
Now every class that contains virtual functions, has a static
member (marked as artificial) that identifies where that vtable
is loaded in memory. The unmangled name is '_vtable$'.
This new symbol will allow a debugger to easily associate
classes with the physical location of their VTables using
only the DWARF information. Previously, this had to be done
by searching for ELF symbols with matching names; something
that was time-consuming and error-prone in certain edge cases.
Finding operator delete[] is still problematic, without it the extension
is a security hazard, so reverting until the problem with operator
delete[] is figured out.
This reverts the following PRs:
Reland [MS][clang] Add support for vector deleting destructors (llvm#133451)
[MS][clang] Make sure vector deleting dtor calls correct operator delete (llvm#133950)

[clang] Do not diagnose unused deleted operator delete[] (llvm#134357)
[MS][clang] Error about ambiguous operator delete[] only when required (llvm#135041)
This is an expensive header, only include it where needed. Move some
functions out of line to achieve that.
This reduces time to build clang by ~0.5% in terms of instructions
retired.
Whereas it is UB in terms of the standard to delete an array of objects
via pointer whose static type doesn't match its dynamic type, MSVC
supports an extension allowing to do it.
Aside from array deletion not working correctly in the mentioned case,
currently not having this extension implemented causes clang to generate
code that is not compatible with the code generated by MSVC, because
clang always puts scalar deleting destructor to the vftable. This PR
aims to resolve these problems.

Originally reverted due to revert of dependent commit. Relanding with no

This changes the MemberPointerType representation to use a
NestedNameSpecifier instead of a Type to represent the base class.
Since the qualifiers are always parsed as nested names, there was an
impedance mismatch when converting these back and forth into types, and
this led to issues in preserving sugar.
The nested names are indeed a better match for these, as the differences
which a QualType can represent cannot be expressed syntatically, and
they represent the use case more exactly, being either dependent or
referring to a CXXRecord, unqualified.
This patch also makes the MemberPointerType able to represent sugar for
a {up/downcast}cast conversion of the base class, although for now the
underlying type is canonical, as preserving the sugar up to that point
requires further work.
As usual, includes a few drive-by fixes in order to make use of the

This intrinsic is used when whole program vtables is used in conjunction
with either CFI or virtual function elimination. The
`llvm.type.checked.load` is unconditionally used, but we need to use the
relative intrinsic for WPD and CFI to work correctly.
When an exception thrown ends up calling `std::terminate`, for example,
because an exception is thrown within a `noexcept` function or an
exception is thrown from `__cxa_end_catch` during handling the previous
exception, the libc++abi spec says we are supposed to call
`__cxa_begin_catch` before `std::terminate`:
https://libcxxabi.llvm.org/spec.html
> When the personality routine encounters a termination condition, it
will call `__cxa_begin_catch()` to mark the exception as handled and
then call `terminate()`, which shall not return to its caller.
The default Itanium ABI generates a call to `__clang_call_terminate()`,
which is a function that calls `__cxa_begin_catch` and then
`std::terminate`:
```ll
define void @__clang_call_terminate(ptr noundef %0) {
%2 = call ptr @__cxa_begin_catch(ptr %0)
call void @_ZSt9terminatev()
unreachable
}
```
But we replaced this with just a call to `std::terminate` in
561abd83ff
because this caused some tricky transformation problems for Wasm EH. The
detailed explanation why is in the commit description, but the summary
is for Wasm EH it needed a `try` with both `catch` and `catch_all` and
it was tricky to deal with.
But that commit replaced `__clang_call_terminate` with `std::terminate`
for all Wasm programs and not only the ones that use Wasm EH. So
Emscripten EH was also affected by that commit. Emscripten EH is not
able to catch foreign exceptions anyway, so this is unnecessary
compromise.
This makes we use `__clang_call_terminate` as in the default Itanium EH
for Emscripten EH. We may later fix Wasm EH too but that requires more
efforts in the backend.

`sret` arguments are always going to reside in the stack/`alloca`
address space, which makes the current formulation where their AS is
derived from the pointee somewhat quaint. This patch ensures that `sret`
ends up pointing to the `alloca` AS in IR function signatures, and also
guards agains trying to pass a casted `alloca`d pointer to a `sret` arg,
which can happen for most languages, when compiled for targets that have
a non-zero `alloca` AS (e.g. AMDGCN) / map `LangAS::default` to a
non-zero value (SPIR-V). A target could still choose to do something
different here, by e.g. overriding `classifyReturnType` behaviour.
In a broader sense, this patch extends non-aliased indirect args to also
carry an AS, which leads to changing the `getIndirect()` interface. At
the moment we're only using this for (indirect) returns, but it allows
for future handling of indirect args themselves. We default to using the
AllocaAS as that matches what Clang is currently doing, however if, in
the future, a target would opt for e.g. placing indirect returns in some
other storage, with another AS, this will require revisiting.

Note that PointerUnion::dyn_cast has been soft deprecated in
PointerUnion.h:
// FIXME: Replace the uses of is(), get() and dyn_cast() with
// isa<T>, cast<T> and the llvm::dyn_cast<T>
Literal migration would result in dyn_cast_if_present (see the
definition of PointerUnion::dyn_cast), but this patch uses dyn_cast
because we expect E to be nonnull.
The `Checked` parameter of `CodeGenFunction::EmitCheck` is of type
`ArrayRef<std::pair<llvm::Value *, SanitizerMask>>`, which is overly
generalized: SanitizerMask can denote that zero or more sanitizers are
enabled, but `EmitCheck` requires that exactly one sanitizer is
specified in the SanitizerMask (e.g.,
`SanitizeTrap.has(Checked[i].second)` enforces that).
This patch replaces SanitizerMask with SanitizerOrdinal in the `Checked`
parameter of `EmitCheck` and code that transitively relies on it. This
should not affect the behavior of UBSan, but it has the advantages that:
- the code is clearer: it avoids ambiguity in EmitCheck about what to do
if multiple bits are set
- specifying the wrong number of sanitizers in `Checked[i].second` will
be detected as a compile-time error, rather than a runtime assertion
failure
Suggested by Vitaly in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/122392
as an alternative to adding an explicit runtime assertion that the
SanitizerMask contains exactly one sanitizer.
In #99726, `-fptrauth-type-info-vtable-pointer-discrimination` was
introduced, which is intended to enable type and address discrimination
for type_info vtable pointers. However, some codegen logic for actually
enabling address discrimination was missing. This patch addresses the
issue.
Fixes#101716
This fixes all the places that hit the new assertion added in
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/106524 in tests. That is,
cases where the value passed to the APInt constructor is not an N-bit
signed/unsigned integer, where N is the bit width and signedness is
determined by the isSigned flag.
The fixes either set the correct value for isSigned, set the
implicitTrunc flag, or perform more calculations inside APInt.
Note that the assertion is currently still disabled by default, so this
patch is mostly NFC.
Translates `RWBuffer` and `StructuredBuffer` resources buffer types to
DirectX target types `dx.TypedBuffer` and `dx.RawBuffer`.
Includes a change of `HLSLAttributesResourceType` from 'sugar' type to
full canonical type. This is required for codegen and other clang
infrastructure to work property on HLSL resource types.
Fixes#95952 (part 2/2)
To consolidate behavior of function mangling and limit the number of
places that ABI changes will need to be made, this switches the DirectX
target used for HLSL to use the Itanium ABI from the Microsoft ABI. The
Itanium ABI has greater flexibility in decisions regarding mangling of
new types of which we have more than a few yet to add.
One effect of this will be that linking library shaders compiled with
DXC will not be possible with shaders compiled with clang. That isn't
considered a terribly interesting use case and one that would likely
have been onerous to maintain anyway.
This involved adding a function to call all global destructors as the
Microsoft ABI had done.
This requires a few changes to tests. Most notably the mangling style
has changed which accounts for most of the changes. In making those
changes, I took the opportunity to harmonize some very similar tests for
greater consistency. I also shaved off some unneeded run flags that had
probably been copied over from one test to another.
Other changes effected by using the new ABI include using different
types when manipulating smaller bitfields, eliminating an unnecessary
alloca in one instance in this-assignment.hlsl, changing the way static
local initialization is guarded, and changing the order of inout
parameters getting copied in and out. That last is a subtle change in
functionality, but one where there was sufficient inconsistency in the
past that standardizing is important, but the particular direction of
the standardization is less important for the sake of existing shaders.

This patch is the frontend implementation of the coroutine elide
improvement project detailed in this discourse post:
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/language-extension-for-better-more-deterministic-halo-for-c-coroutines/80044
This patch proposes a C++ struct/class attribute
`[[clang::coro_await_elidable]]`. This notion of await elidable task
gives developers and library authors a certainty that coroutine heap
elision happens in a predictable way.
Originally, after we lower a coroutine to LLVM IR, CoroElide is
responsible for analysis of whether an elision can happen. Take this as
an example:
```
Task foo();
Task bar() {
co_await foo();
}
```
For CoroElide to happen, the ramp function of `foo` must be inlined into
`bar`. This inlining happens after `foo` has been split but `bar` is
usually still a presplit coroutine. If `foo` is indeed a coroutine, the
inlined `coro.id` intrinsics of `foo` is visible within `bar`. CoroElide
then runs an analysis to figure out whether the SSA value of
`coro.begin()` of `foo` gets destroyed before `bar` terminates.
`Task` types are rarely simple enough for the destroy logic of the task
to reference the SSA value from `coro.begin()` directly. Hence, the pass
is very ineffective for even the most trivial C++ Task types. Improving
CoroElide by implementing more powerful analyses is possible, however it
doesn't give us the predictability when we expect elision to happen.
The approach we want to take with this language extension generally
originates from the philosophy that library implementations of `Task`
types has the control over the structured concurrency guarantees we
demand for elision to happen. That is, the lifetime for the callee's
frame is shorter to that of the caller.
The ``[[clang::coro_await_elidable]]`` is a class attribute which can be
applied to a coroutine return type.
When a coroutine function that returns such a type calls another
coroutine function, the compiler performs heap allocation elision when
the following conditions are all met:
- callee coroutine function returns a type that is annotated with
``[[clang::coro_await_elidable]]``.
- In caller coroutine, the return value of the callee is a prvalue that
is immediately `co_await`ed.
From the C++ perspective, it makes sense because we can ensure the
lifetime of elided callee cannot exceed that of the caller if we can
guarantee that the caller coroutine is never destroyed earlier than the
callee coroutine. This is not generally true for any C++ programs.
However, the library that implements `Task` types and executors may
provide this guarantee to the compiler, providing the user with
certainty that HALO will work on their programs.
After this patch, when compiling coroutines that return a type with such
attribute, the frontend checks that the type of the operand of
`co_await` expressions (not `operator co_await`). If it's also
attributed with `[[clang::coro_await_elidable]]`, the FE emits metadata
on the call or invoke instruction as a hint for a later middle end pass
to elide the elision.
The original patch version is
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/94693 and as suggested, the
patch is split into frontend and middle end solutions into stacked PRs.
The middle end CoroSplit patch can be found at
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/99283
The middle end transformation that performs the elide can be found at
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/99285
Clang should only emit an available_externally vtable when there are no
unused virtual inline functions. Currently, if such such a function is
declared without inline inside the class, but is defined inline outside
the class, Clang might emit the vtable as available_externally. This
happens because Clang only considers the declarations of vtable entries,
but not the definitions. This patch addresses this by inspecting the
definitions in addition to the declarations.

- Fixed the regression in windows
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/97447. The changes are in
`CodeGenModule::getVTableLinkage` from
`clang/lib/CodeGen/CGVTables.cpp`. According to the feedbacks from MSVC
devs, the linkage of vtables won't affected by modules. So I simply
skipped the case for MSVC.
Given this is more or less fundamental to the use of modules. I hope we
can backport this to 19.x.
HLSL has a set of intangible types which are described in in the
[draft HLSL Specification
(**[Basic.types]**)](https://microsoft.github.io/hlsl-specs/specs/hlsl.pdf):
There are special implementation-defined types such as handle types,
which fall into a category of standard intangible types. Intangible
types are types that have no defined object representation or value
representation, as such the size is unknown at compile time.
A class type T is an intangible class type if it contains an base
classes or members of intangible class type, standard intangible type,
or arrays of such types. Standard intangible types and intangible class
types are collectively called intangible
types([9](https://microsoft.github.io/hlsl-specs/specs/hlsl.html#Intangible)).
This PR implements one standard intangible type `__hlsl_resource_t`
and sets up the infrastructure that will make it easier to add more
in the future, such as samplers or raytracing payload handles. The
HLSL intangible types are declared in
`clang/include/clang/Basic/HLSLIntangibleTypes.def` and this file is
included with related macro definition in most places that require edits
when a new type is added.
The new types are added as keywords and not typedefs to make sure they
cannot be redeclared, and they can only be declared in builtin implicit
headers. The `__hlsl_resource_t` type represents a handle to a memory
resource and it is going to be used in builtin HLSL buffer types like this:
template <typename T>
class RWBuffer {
[[hlsl::contained_type(T)]]
[[hlsl::is_rov(false)]]
[[hlsl::resource_class(uav)]]
__hlsl_resource_t Handle;
};

Introduces type based signing of member function pointers. To support
this discrimination schema we no longer emit member function pointer to
virtual methods and indices into a vtable but migrate to using thunks.
This does mean member function pointers are no longer necessarily
directly comparable, however as such comparisons are UB this is
acceptable.
We derive the discriminator from the C++ mangling of the type of the
pointer being authenticated.

temporary partial revert of 77ac823fd285973cfb3517932c09d82e6a32f46d.
The le32 and le64 targets are no longer necessary to retain, so this
removes them entirely.
This reverts commit 18f3bcbb13ca83d33223b00761d8cddf463e9ffb, 15bb02650e26875c48889053d6a9697444583721 and
99873b35da7ecb905143c8a6b8deca4d4416f1a9.
See the post commit message in
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/75912 to see the reasons.
Virtual function pointer entries in v-tables are signed with address
discrimination in addition to declaration-based discrimination, where an
integer discriminator the string hash (see
`ptrauth_string_discriminator`) of the mangled name of the overridden
method. This notably provides diversity based on the full signature of
the overridden method, including the method name and parameter types.
This patch introduces ItaniumVTableContext logic to find the original
declaration of the overridden method.
On AArch64, these pointers are signed using the `IA` key (the
process-independent code key.)
V-table pointers can be signed with either no discrimination, or a
similar scheme using address and decl-based discrimination. In this
case, the integer discriminator is the string hash of the mangled
v-table identifier of the class that originally introduced the vtable
pointer.
On AArch64, these pointers are signed using the `DA` key (the
process-independent data key.)
Not using discrimination allows attackers to simply copy valid v-table
pointers from one object to another. However, using a uniform
discriminator of 0 does have positive performance and code-size
implications on AArch64, and diversity for the most important v-table
access pattern (virtual dispatch) is already better assured by the
signing schemas used on the virtual functions. It is also known that
some code in practice copies objects containing v-tables with `memcpy`,
and while this is not permitted formally, it is something that may be
invasive to eliminate.
This is controlled by:
```
-fptrauth-vtable-pointer-type-discrimination
-fptrauth-vtable-pointer-address-discrimination
```
In addition, this provides fine-grained controls in the
ptrauth_vtable_pointer attribute, which allows overriding the default
ptrauth schema for vtable pointers on a given class hierarchy, e.g.:
```
[[clang::ptrauth_vtable_pointer(no_authentication, no_address_discrimination,
no_extra_discrimination)]]
[[clang::ptrauth_vtable_pointer(default_key, default_address_discrimination,
custom_discrimination, 0xf00d)]]
```
The override is then mangled as a parametrized vendor extension:
```
"__vtptrauth" I
<key>
<addressDiscriminated>
<extraDiscriminator>
E
```
To support this attribute, this patch adds a small extension to the
attribute-emitter tablegen backend.
Note that there are known areas where signing is either missing
altogether or can be strengthened. Some will be addressed in later
changes (e.g., member function pointers, some RTTI).
`dynamic_cast` in particular is handled by emitting an artificial
v-table pointer load (in a way that always authenticates it) before the
runtime call itself, as the runtime doesn't have enough information
today to properly authenticate it. Instead, the runtime is currently
expected to strip the v-table pointer.
