Previously, omitting unnecessary DWARF unwinds was only done in two
cases:
* For Darwin + aarch64, if no DWARF unwind info is needed for all the
functions in a TU, then the `__eh_frame` section would be omitted
entirely. If any one function needed DWARF unwind, then MC would emit
DWARF unwind entries for all the functions in the TU.
* For watchOS, MC would omit DWARF unwind on a per-function basis, as
long as compact unwind was available for that function.
This diff makes it so that we omit DWARF unwind on a per-function basis
for Darwin + aarch64 as well. In addition, we introduce the flag
`--emit-dwarf-unwind=` which can toggle between `always`,
`no-compact-unwind` (only emit DWARF when CU cannot be emitted for a
given function), and the target platform `default`. `no-compact-unwind`
is particularly useful for newer x86_64 platforms: we don't want to omit
DWARF unwind for x86_64 in general due to possible backwards compat
issues, but we should make it possible for people to opt into this
behavior if they are only targeting newer platforms.
**Motivation:** I'm working on adding support for `__eh_frame` to LLD,
but I'm concerned that we would suffer a perf hit. Processing compact
unwind is already expensive, and that's a simpler format than EH frames.
Given that MC currently produces one EH frame entry for every compact
unwind entry, I don't think processing them will be cheap. I tried to do
something clever on LLD's end to drop the unnecessary EH frames at parse
time, but this made the code significantly more complex. So I'm looking
at fixing this at the MC level instead.
**Addendum:** It turns out that there was a latent bug in the X86
backend when `OmitDwarfIfHaveCompactUnwind` is naively enabled, which is
not too surprising given that this combination has not been heretofore
used.
For functions that have unwind info that cannot be encoded with CU, MC
would end up dropping both the compact unwind entry (OK; existing
behavior) as well as the DWARF entries (not OK). This diff fixes things
so that we emit the DWARF entry, as well as a CU entry with encoding
`UNWIND_X86_MODE_DWARF` -- this basically tells the unwinder to look for
the DWARF entry. I'm not 100% sure the `UNWIND_X86_MODE_DWARF` CU entry
is necessary, this was the simplest fix. ld64 seems to be able to handle
both the absence and presence of this CU entry. Ultimately ld64 (and
LLD) will synthesize `UNWIND_X86_MODE_DWARF` if it is absent, so there
is no impact to the final binary size.

As described on D111049, we're trying to remove the <string> dependency from error handling and replace uses of report_fatal_error(const std::string&) with the Twine() variant which can be forward declared.
This was already the case, but the recent change (957334382cd1) altered
the behavior on some of our bots where __unw_add_dynamic_fde is not
found. This restores the prior behavior on Darwin while also retaining
the new behavior from that change.
libgcc and libunwind have different flavours of __register_frame. Both
flavours are already correctly handled, except that the code to handle
the libunwind flavour is guarded by __APPLE__. This change uses the
presence of __unw_add_dynamic_fde in libunwind instead to detect whether
libunwind is used, rather than hardcoding it as Apple vs. non-Apple.
Fixes PR44074.

The macro HAVE_EHTABLE_SUPPORT is used by parts of ExecutionEngine to tell __register_frame/__deregister_frame is available to register the
FDE for a generated (JIT) code. It's currently set by a slowly growing set of macro tests in the respective headers, which is updated now and then when it fails to link on some platform or another due to the symbols being missing (see for example https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5715).
This change converts the macro in two HAVE_(DE)REGISTER_FRAME config.h macros (like most of the other HAVE_* macros) and set's them based on whether CMake can actually find a definition for these symbols to link to at configuration time.

Summary:
JITLink is a jit-linker that performs the same high-level task as RuntimeDyld:
it parses relocatable object files and makes their contents runnable in a target
process.
JITLink aims to improve on RuntimeDyld in several ways:
(1) A clear design intended to maximize code-sharing while minimizing coupling.
RuntimeDyld has been developed in an ad-hoc fashion for a number of years and
this had led to intermingling of code for multiple architectures (e.g. in
RuntimeDyldELF::processRelocationRef) in a way that makes the code more
difficult to read, reason about, extend. JITLink is designed to isolate
format and architecture specific code, while still sharing generic code.
(2) Support for native code models.
RuntimeDyld required the use of large code models (where calls to external
functions are made indirectly via registers) for many of platforms due to its
restrictive model for stub generation (one "stub" per symbol). JITLink allows
arbitrary mutation of the atom graph, allowing both GOT and PLT atoms to be
added naturally.
(3) Native support for asynchronous linking.
JITLink uses asynchronous calls for symbol resolution and finalization: these
callbacks are passed a continuation function that they must call to complete the
linker's work. This allows for cleaner interoperation with the new concurrent
ORC JIT APIs, while still being easily implementable in synchronous style if
asynchrony is not needed.
To maximise sharing, the design has a hierarchy of common code:
(1) Generic atom-graph data structure and algorithms (e.g. dead stripping and
| memory allocation) that are intended to be shared by all architectures.
|
+ -- (2) Shared per-format code that utilizes (1), e.g. Generic MachO to
| atom-graph parsing.
|
+ -- (3) Architecture specific code that uses (1) and (2). E.g.
JITLinkerMachO_x86_64, which adds x86-64 specific relocation
support to (2) to build and patch up the atom graph.
To support asynchronous symbol resolution and finalization, the callbacks for
these operations take continuations as arguments:
using JITLinkAsyncLookupContinuation =
std::function<void(Expected<AsyncLookupResult> LR)>;
using JITLinkAsyncLookupFunction =
std::function<void(const DenseSet<StringRef> &Symbols,
JITLinkAsyncLookupContinuation LookupContinuation)>;
using FinalizeContinuation = std::function<void(Error)>;
virtual void finalizeAsync(FinalizeContinuation OnFinalize);
In addition to its headline features, JITLink also makes other improvements:
- Dead stripping support: symbols that are not used (e.g. redundant ODR
definitions) are discarded, and take up no memory in the target process
(In contrast, RuntimeDyld supported pointer equality for weak definitions,
but the redundant definitions stayed resident in memory).
- Improved exception handling support. JITLink provides a much more extensive
eh-frame parser than RuntimeDyld, and is able to correctly fix up many
eh-frame sections that RuntimeDyld currently (silently) fails on.
- More extensive validation and error handling throughout.
This initial patch supports linking MachO/x86-64 only. Work on support for
other architectures and formats will happen in-tree.

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

frames.
RuntimeDyld was previously responsible for tracking allocated EH frames, but it
makes more sense to have the RuntimeDyld::MemoryManager track them (since the
frames are allocated through the memory manager, and written to memory owned by
the memory manager). This patch moves the frame tracking into
RTDyldMemoryManager, and changes the deregisterFrames method on
RuntimeDyld::MemoryManager from:
void deregisterEHFrames(uint8_t *Addr, uint64_t LoadAddr, size_t Size);
to:
void deregisterEHFrames();
Separating this responsibility will allow ORC to continue to throw the
RuntimeDyld instances away post-link (saving a few dozen bytes per lazy
function) while properly deregistering frames when modules are unloaded.
This patch also updates ORC to call deregisterEHFrames when modules are
unloaded. This fixes a bug where an exception that tears down the JIT can then
unwind through dangling EH frames that have been deallocated but not
deregistered, resulting in UB.
For people using SectionMemoryManager this should be pretty much a no-op. For
people with custom allocators that override registerEHFrames/deregisterEHFrames,
you will now be responsible for tracking allocated EH frames.

RTDyldMemoryManager::getSymbolAddressInProcess()
This should allow JIT'd code for win32 to find in-process symbols. See
http://llvm.org/PR28699 .
Patch by James Holderness. Thanks James!
llvm-svn: 279016
The RTDyldMemoryManager::getSymbolAddressInProcess method accepts a
linker-mangled symbol name, but it calls through to dlsym to do the lookup (via
DynamicLibrary::SearchForAddressOfSymbol), and dlsym expects an unmangled
symbol name.
Historically we've attempted to "demangle" by removing leading '_'s on all
platforms, and fallen back to an extra search if that failed. That's broken, as
it can cause symbols to resolve incorrectly on platforms that don't do mangling
if you query '_foo' and the process also happens to contain a 'foo'.
Fix this by demangling conditionally based on the host platform. That's safe
here because this function is specifically for symbols in the host process, so
the usual cross-process JIT looking concerns don't apply.
