Here's a high level summary of the changes in this patch. For more
information on rational, see the RFC.
(https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-a-unified-lto-bitcode-frontend/61774).
- Add config parameter to LTO backend, specifying which LTO mode is
desired when using unified LTO.
- Add unified LTO flag to the summary index for efficiency. Unified
LTO modules can be detected without parsing the module.
- Make sure that the ModuleID is generated by incorporating more types
of symbols.

MC and lld/ELF defaults were flipped in 2016. For Clang: CMake
ENABLE_X86_RELAX_RELOCATIONS defaults to on in 2020. It makes sense for
the TargetOptions default to be true now.
R_X86_64_GOTPCRELX/R_X86_64_REX_GOTPCRELX require GNU ld newer than 2015-10
(subsumed by the current requirement of -fbinutils-version=).
This should fix `rustc -Z plt=no` PIC relocatable files with GNU ld.

For a local linkage GlobalObject in a non-prevailing COMDAT, it remains defined while its
leader has been made available_externally. This violates the COMDAT rule that
its members must be retained or discarded as a unit.
To fix this, update the regular LTO change D34803 to track local linkage
GlobalValues, and port the code to ThinLTO (GlobalAliases are not handled.)
This fixes two problems.
(a) `__cxx_global_var_init` in a non-prevailing COMDAT group used to
linger around (unreferenced, hence benign), and is now correctly discarded.
```
int foo();
inline int v = foo();
```
(b) Fix https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/58215:
as a size optimization, we place private `__profd_` in a COMDAT with a
`__profc_` key. When FuncImport.cpp makes `__profc_` available_externally due to

If a GlobalAlias references a GlobalValue which is just changed to
available_externally, change the GlobalAlias as well (e.g. C5/D5 comdats due to
cc1 -mconstructor-aliases). The GlobalAlias may be referenced by other
available_externally functions, so it cannot easily be removed.
Depends on D137441: we use available_externally to mark a GlobalAlias in a
non-prevailing COMDAT, similar to how we handle GlobalVariable/Function.
GlobalAlias may refer to a ConstantExpr, not changing GlobalAlias to
GlobalVariable gives flexibility for future extensions (the use case is niche.
For simplicity we don't handle it yet). In addition, available_externally
GlobalAlias is the most straightforward implementation and retains the aliasee
information to help optimizers.
See windows-vftable.ll: Windows vftable uses an alias pointing to a
private constant where the alias is the COMDAT leader. The COMDAT use case
is skeptical and ThinLTO does not discard the alias in the non-prevailing COMDAT.
This patch retains the behavior.
See new tests ctor-dtor-alias2.ll: depending on whether the complete object
destructor emitted, when ctor/dtor aliases are used, we may see D0/D2 COMDATs in
one TU and D0/D1/D2 in a D5 COMDAT in another TU.
Allow such a mix-and-match with `if (GO->getComdat()->getName() == GO->getName()) NonPrevailingComdats.insert(GO->getComdat());`
GlobalAlias handling in ThinLTO is still weird, but this patch should hopefully
improve the situation for at least all cases I can think of.

LTO code may end up mixing bitcode files from various sources varying in
their use of opaque pointer types. The current strategy to decide
between opaque / typed pointers upon the first bitcode file loaded does
not work here, since we could be loading a non-opaque bitcode file first
and would then be unable to load any files with opaque pointer types
later.
So for LTO this:
- Adds an `lto::Config::OpaquePointer` option and enforces an upfront
decision between the two modes.
- Adds `-opaque-pointers`/`-no-opaque-pointers` options to the gold
plugin; disabled by default.
- `--opaque-pointers`/`--no-opaque-pointers` options with
`-plugin-opt=-opaque-pointers`/`-plugin-opt=-no-opaque-pointers`
aliases to lld; disabled by default.
- Adds an `-lto-opaque-pointers` option to the `llvm-lto2` tool.
- Changes the clang driver to pass `-plugin-opt=-opaque-pointers` to
the linker in LTO modes when clang was configured with opaque
pointers enabled by default.

There are two test issues:
- The test assumes the current directory is writeable, but it may not be. Use `%t.o`-like paths instead of implicit `a.out`.
- The `RUN llvm-nm` line is missing a colon, so the test was not being exercised.
This patch removes an incorrect behaviour in Constants.cpp, which would
replace dead constant references in metadata with an undef value. This
blanket replacement resulted in undef values being inserted into
metadata that would not accept them. The replacement was intended for
debug info metadata, but this is now instead handled in the RAUW

As discussed on https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2020-September/144904.html
("[IR] Modelling of GlobalIFunc"), the name `getBaseObject` is confusing when
used with GlobalIFunc.
To resolve the confusion:
* Move GloalIndirectSymol::getBaseObject to GlobalAlias:: (GlobalIFunc should use `getResolver` instead)
* Change GlobalValue::getBaseObject not to inspect GlobalIFunc. Note: the function has 7 references.
* Add GlobalIFunc::getResolverFunction to peel off potential ConstantExpr indirection
(`strlen` in `test/LTO/Resolution/X86/ifunc.ll`)
Note: GlobalIFunc::getResolver (like GlobalAlias::getAliasee which does not peel
off ConstantExpr indirection) is kept to be used by ValueEnumerator.

As we don't sort local symbols, don't sort non-local symbols. This makes
non-local symbols appear in their register order, which matches GNU as. The
register order is nice in that you can write tests with interleaved CHECK
prefixes, e.g.
```
// CHECK: something about foo
.globl foo
foo:
// CHECK: something about bar
.globl bar
bar:
```
With the lexicographical order, the user needs to place lexicographical smallest
symbol first or keep CHECK prefixes in one place.
This guards against cases where the symbol was dead code eliminated in
the binary by ThinLTO, and we have a sample profile collected for one
binary but used to optimize another.
Most of the benefit from ICP comes from inlining the target, which we
can't do with only a declaration anyway. If this is in the pre-ThinLTO
link step (e.g. for instrumentation based PGO), we will attempt the
promotion again in the ThinLTO backend after importing anyway, and we
don't need the early promotion to facilitate that.

When sampleFDO is enabled, people may expect they can use
-fno-profile-sample-use to opt-out using sample profile for a certain file.
That could be either for debugging purpose or for performance tuning purpose.
However, when thinlto is enabled, if a function in file A compiled with
-fno-profile-sample-use is imported to another file B compiled with
-fprofile-sample-use, the inlined copy of the function in file B may still
get its profile annotated.
The inconsistency may even introduce profile unused warning because if the
target is not compiled with explicit debug information flag, the function
in file A won't have its debug information enabled (debug information will
be enabled implicitly only when -fprofile-sample-use is used). After it is
imported into file B which is compiled with -fprofile-sample-use, profile
annotation for the outline copy of the function will fail because the
function has no debug information, and that will trigger profile unused
warning.
We add a new attribute use-sample-profile to control whether a function
will use its sample profile no matter for its outline or inline copies.
That will make the behavior of -fno-profile-sample-use consistent.

dso_local leads to direct access even if the definition is not within this compilation unit (it is
still in the same linkage unit). On ELF, such a relocation (e.g. R_X86_64_PC32) referencing a
STB_GLOBAL STV_DEFAULT object can cause a linker error in a -shared link.
If the linkage is changed to available_externally, the dso_local flag should be dropped, so that no
direct access will be generated.
The current behavior is benign, because -fpic does not assume dso_local
(clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenModule.cpp:shouldAssumeDSOLocal).

llvm-svn: 369774
Summary:
Keep aliasees alive if their alias is live, otherwise we end up with an
alias to a declaration, which is invalid. This can happen when the
aliasee is weak and non-prevailing.
This fix exposed the fact that we were then attempting to internalize
the weak symbol, which was not exported as it was not prevailing. We
should not internalize interposable symbols in general, unless this is
the prevailing copy, since it can lead to incorrect inlining and other
optimizations. Most of the changes in this patch are due to the
restructuring required to pass down the prevailing callback.
Finally, while implementing the test cases, I found that in the case of
a weak aliasee that is still marked not live because its alias isn't
live, after dropping the definition we incorrectly marked the
declaration with weak linkage when resolving prevailing symbols in the
module. This was due to some special case handling for symbols marked
WeakLinkage in the summary located before instead of after a subsequent
check for the symbol being a declaration. It turns out that we don't
actually need this special case handling any more (looking back at the
history, when that was added the code was structured quite differently)
- we will correctly mark with weak linkage further below when the
definition hasn't been dropped.
Fixes PR42542.

GlobalAlias and GlobalIFunc ought to be treated the same by the IR
linker, so we can generalize the code to be in terms of their common
base class GlobalIndirectSymbol.

For consistency with normal instructions and clarity when reading IR,
it's best to print the %0, %1, ... names of function arguments in
definitions.
Also modifies the parser to accept IR in that form for obvious reasons.

This reverts r364422 (git commit 1a3dc761860d620ac8ed7e32a4285952142f780b)
The inlining cost calculation is incorrect, leading to stack overflow due to large stack frames from heavy inlining.
llvm-svn: 365000
Summary:
Doing better separation of Cost and Threshold.
Cost counts the abstract complexity of live instructions, while Threshold is an upper bound of complexity that inlining is comfortable to pay.
There are two parts:
- huge 15K last-call-to-static bonus is no longer subtracted from Cost
but rather is now added to Threshold.
That makes much more sense, as the cost of inlining (Cost) is not changed by the fact
that internal function is called once. It only changes the likelyhood of this inlining
being profitable (Threshold).
- bonus for calls proved-to-be-inlinable into callee is no longer subtracted from Cost
but added to Threshold instead.
While calculations are somewhat different, overall InlineResult should stay the same since Cost >= Threshold compares the same.

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.
