I just found that we didn't handle the imports in GMF of PMF when we're
generating the init functions for the current module unit. This looks
like a simple oversight and I'm going to fix that in this patch
directly.
Close https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/56794
And see https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/67582 for a detailed
backgrond for the issue.
As required by the Itanium ABI, the module units have to generate the
initialization function. However, the importers are allowed to elide the
call to the initialization function if they are sure the initialization
function doesn't do anything.
This patch implemented this semantics.
For the Itanium ABI, we emit an initializer for each module. This is responsible
for handling initialization of global vars. Relates to P1874R1.
The initializer has a known mangling and is automatically called from any TU that
imports a module. Since, at present, the importer has no way to determine that an
imported module does not require an initializer, we generate the initializer for
all cases (even when it is empty).
Initializers must be run once, with the ordering guaranteed by the import graph
and this is ensured in the current code by addition of a guard variable.
In the case that a module has no requirement for global initializers, and also does
not import any other modules, we can elide the guard variable.
