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.

patch is split into frontend and middle end solutions into stacked PRs.

Summary:
This patch adds support for registering texture / surface variables from
CUDA / HIP. Additionally, we now properly track the `extern` and `const`
flags that are also used in these runtime functions.
This does not implement the `managed` variables yet as those seem to
require some extra handling I'm not familiar with. The issue is that the
current offload entry isn't large enough to carry size and alignment
information along with an extra global.
This revision fixes typos where there are 2 consecutive words which are
duplicated. There should be no code changes in this revision (only
changes to comments and docs). Do let me know if there are any
undesirable changes in this revision. Thanks.
The changes made in D123460 generalized the code generation for OpenMP's
offloading entries. We can use the same scheme to register globals for
CUDA code. This patch adds the code generation to create these
offloading entries when compiling using the new offloading driver mode.
The offloading entries are simple structs that contain the information
necessary to register the global. The struct used is as follows:
```
Type struct __tgt_offload_entry {
void *addr; // Pointer to the offload entry info.
// (function or global)
char *name; // Name of the function or global.
size_t size; // Size of the entry info (0 if it a function).
int32_t flags;
int32_t reserved;
};
```
Currently CUDA handles RDC code generation by deferring the registration
of globals in the current TU to a callback function containing the
modules ID. Later all the module IDs will be used to register all of the
globals at once. Rather than mimic this, offloading entries allow us to
mimic the way OpenMP registers globals. That is, we create a simple
global struct for each device global to be registered. These are placed
at a special section `cuda_offloading_entires`. Because this section is
a valid C-identifier, the linker will profide a `__start` and `__stop`
pointer that we can use to iterate and register all globals at runtime.
the registration requires a flag variable to indicate which registration
function to use. I have assigned the flags somewhat arbitrarily, but
these use the following values.
Kernel: 0
Variable: 0
Managed: 1
Surface: 2
Texture: 3

Currently clang uses stub function to launch kernel. This is inconvenient
to interop with C++ programs since the stub function has different name
as kernel, which is required by ROCm debugger.
This patch emits a variable symbol which has the same name as the kernel
and uses it to register and launch the kernel. This allows C++ program to
launch a kernel by using the original kernel name.

Currently managed variables are emitted as undefined symbols, which
causes difficulty for diagnosing undefined symbols for non-managed
variables.
This patch transforms managed variables in device compilation so that
they can be emitted as normal variables.

Summary:
- Even though the bindless surface/texture interfaces are promoted,
there are still code using surface/texture references. For example,
[PR#26400](https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26400) reports the
compilation issue for code using `tex2D` with texture references. For
better compatibility, this patch proposes the support of
surface/texture references.
- Due to the absent documentation and magic headers, it's believed that
`nvcc` does use builtins for texture support. From the limited NVVM
documentation[^nvvm] and NVPTX backend texture/surface related
tests[^test], it's believed that surface/texture references are
supported by replacing their reference types, which are annotated with
`device_builtin_surface_type`/`device_builtin_texture_type`, with the
corresponding handle-like object types, `cudaSurfaceObject_t` or
`cudaTextureObject_t`, in the device-side compilation. On the host
side, that global handle variables are registered and will be
established and updated later when corresponding binding/unbinding
APIs are called[^bind]. Surface/texture references are most like
device global variables but represented in different types on the host
and device sides.
- In this patch, the following changes are proposed to support that
behavior:
+ Refine `device_builtin_surface_type` and
`device_builtin_texture_type` attributes to be applied on `Type`
decl only to check whether a variable is of the surface/texture
reference type.
+ Add hooks in code generation to replace that reference types with
the correponding object types as well as all accesses to them. In
particular, `nvvm.texsurf.handle.internal` should be used to load
object handles from global reference variables[^texsurf] as well as
metadata annotations.
+ Generate host-side registration with proper template argument
parsing.

HIP emits a device stub function for each kernel in host code.
The HIP debugger requires device stub function to have a different unmangled name as the kernel.
Currently the name of the device stub function is the mangled name with a postfix .stub. However,
this does not work with the HIP debugger since the unmangled name is the same as the kernel.
This patch adds prefix __device__stub__ to the unmangled name of the device stub before mangling,
therefore the device stub function has a valid mangled name which is different than the device kernel
name. The device side kernel name is kept unchanged. kernels with extern "C" also gets the prefix added
to the corresponding device stub function.

- Revise the interface to derive the stub name and simplify the

__hipRegisterFunction and __hipRegisterVar need to accept device side kernel and variable names
so that HIP runtime can associate kernel stub functions in host code with kernel symbols in fat binaries,
and associate shadow variables in host code with device variables in fat binaries.
Currently, clang assumes kernel functions and device variables have the same name as the kernel
stub functions and shadow variables. However, when host is compiled in windows with MSVC C++
ABI and device is compiled with Itanium C++ ABI (e.g. AMDGPU), kernels and device symbols in fat
binary are mangled differently than host.
This patch gets the device side kernel and variable name by mangling them in the mangle context
of aux target.

We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
