The issue fixed in PR113337 exposed a bug in the comparisons done in
allocTypesMatch, which compares a vector of alloc types to those in the
given vector of Edges. The form of std::equal used, which didn't provide
the end iterator for the Edges vector, will iterate through as many
entries in the Edges vector as in the InAllocTypes vector, which can
fail if there are fewer entries in the Edges vector, because we may
dereference a bogus Edge pointer. This function is called twice, once
for the Node, with its callee edges, in which case the number of edges
should always match the number of entries in allocTypesMatch, which is
computed from the Node's callee edges. It was also called for Node's
clones, and it turns out that after cloning and edge modifications done
for other allocations, the number of callee edges in Node and its clones
may no longer match. In some cases, more common with memprof ICP before
the PR113337, the number of clone edges can be smaller leading to a bad
dereference. I found for a large application even before adding memprof
ICP support we sometimes call this with fewer entries in the clone's
callee edges, but were getting lucky as they had allocation type None,
and we didn't end up attempting to dereference the bad edge pointer.
Fix this by passing Edges.end() to std::equal, which means std::equal
will fail if the number of entries in the 2 vectors are not equal.
However, this is too conservative, as clone edges may have been added or
removed since it was initially cloned, and in fact can be wrong as we
may not be comparing allocation types corresponding to the same callee.
Therefore, a couple of enhancements are made to avoid regressing and
improve the checking and cloning:
- Don't bother calling the alloc type comparison when the clone and the
Node's alloc type for the current allocation are precise (have a
single allocation type) and are the same (which is guaranteed by an
earlier check, and an assert is added to confirm that). In that case
we can trivially determine that the clone can be used.
- Split the alloc type matching handling into a separate function for
the clone case. In that case, for each of the InAllocType entries,
attempt to find and compare to the clone callee edge with the same
callee as the corresponding original node callee.
To create a test case I needed to take a spec application (xalancbmk),
and repeatedly apply random hot/cold-ness to the memprof contexts
when building, until I hit the problematic case. I then reduced that
full LTO IR using llvm-reduce and then manually.
The recent change to add support for cloning indirect calls
inadvertantly caused duplicate edges to be created between the same
caller/callee pair. This is due to the new moveCalleeEdgeToNewCaller
not properly guarding the addition of a new edge (ironically I was
testing for that in an assertion, but failed to handle that case
specially otherwise). Now simply move the context ids over to any
existing edge.
This issue in turn led to some assumptions in cloning being violated,
resulting in a later crash.
Add a test for this case to checkNode.
Previously we were attempting to remove the memprof-related metadata
when iterating through instructions in the LTO backend. However, we
missed some as there are a number of cases where we skip instructions,
or even entire functions. Simplify the cleanup and ensure all is removed
by doing a full sweep over all instructions after completing cloning.
This is largely NFC except with -memprof-report-hinted-sizes enabled,
because we were propagating and simplifying the metadata after inlining
in the LTO backend, which caused some stray messages as metadata was
re-converted to attributes.
This patch enables support for cloning in indirect callsites.
This is done by synthesizing callsite records for each virtual call
target from the profile metadata. In the thin link all the synthesized
records for a particular indirect callsite initially share the same
context node, but support is added to partition the callsites and
outgoing edges based on the callee function, creating a separate node
for each target.
In the LTO backend, when cloning is needed we first perform indirect
call promotion, then change the target of the new direct call to the
desired clone.
Note this is ThinLTO-specific, since for regular LTO indirect call
promotion should have already occurred.
This reverts commit 12d4769cb84b2b2e60f9776fa043c6ea16f08ebb, reapplying
524a028f69cdf25503912c396ebda7ebf0065ed2 but with fixes for failures
seen in broader testing.
One of the memory reduction techniques was to compute node context ids
on the fly. This reduced memory at the expense of some compile time
increase.
For a large binary we were spending a lot of time invoking getContextIds
on the node during assignStackNodesPostOrder, because we were iterating
through the stack ids for a call from leaf to root (first to last node
in the parlance used in that code). However, all calls for a given entry
in the StackIdToMatchingCalls map share the same last node, so we can
borrow the approach used by similar code in updateStackNodes and compute
the context ids on the last node once, then iterate each call's stack
ids in reverse order while reusing the last node's context ids.
This reduced the thin link time by 43% for a large target. It isn't
clear why there wasn't a similar increase measured when introducing the
node context id recomputation, but the compile time was longer to start
with then.
Add helper for removing an edge from the graph, and for checking if an
edge has been removed from the graph, and then update code to use those
consistently for removal and during edge iteration, respectively. Also
fix a couple of places that were incorrectly iterating over edge lists
that could in theory be updated during the iteration.
This reverts commit 524a028f69cdf25503912c396ebda7ebf0065ed2, but
manually so that follow on PR108086 /
ae5f1a78d3a930466f927989faac8e0b9d820a7b
is retained (NFC patch to convert tuple to a struct).
Sort the list of calls such that those with the same stack ids are also
sorted by function. This allows processing of all matching calls (that
can share a context node) in bulk as they are all adjacent.
This has 2 benefits:
1. It reduces unnecessary work, specifically the handling to intersect
the context ids with those along the graph edges for the stack ids,
for calls that we know can share a node.
2. It simplifies detecting when we have matching stack ids but don't
need to duplicate context ids. Specifically, we were previously
still duplicating context ids whenever we saw another call with the
same stack ids, but that isn't necessary if they will share a context
node. With this change we now only duplicate context ids if we see
some that not only have the same ids but also are in different
functions.
This change reduced the amount of context id duplication and provided
reductions in both both peak memory (~8%) and time (~%5) for a large
target.
Recent change #106623 added the CallToFunc map, but I subsequently
realized the same information is already available for the calls being
examined in the StackIdToMatchingCalls map we're iterating through.
This reverts commit 11aa31f595325d6b2dede3364e4b86d78fffe635, restoring
commit 055e4319112282354327af9908091fdb25149e9b, with added fixes for
linker unsats.
In some cases multiple calls to different targets may end up with the
same debug information, and therefore callsite id. We will end up
sharing the node between these calls. We don't know which one matches
the callees until all nodes are matched with calls, at which point any
non-matching calls should be removed from the node. The fix extends the
handling in handleCallsitesWithMultipleTargets to do this, and adds
tests for various permutations of this situation.
When assigning calls to nodes while building the graph, we can share
nodes between multiple calls in some cases. Specifically, when we
process the list of calls that had the same stack ids (possibly pruned,
because we are looking at the stack ids that actually had nodes in the
graph due to stack ids in the pruned allocation MIBs), for calls that
are located in the same function, we know that they will behave exactly
the same through cloning and function assignment. Therefore, instead of
creating nodes for all of them (requiring context id duplication), keep
a list of additional "matching calls" on the nodes. During function
assignment we simply update all the matching calls the same way as the
primary call.
This change not only reduces the number of nodes (both original and
cloned), but also greatly reduces the number of duplicated context ids
and the time to propagate them.
For a large target, I measured a 25% peak memory reduction and 42% time
reduction.
To facilitate some follow on changes, consolidate the incrementing of
the edge iterator used during callee matching to the for loop statement.
This requires an additional adjustment in the case of tail call
handling.
If requested, via the -memprof-report-hinted-sizes option, track the
total profiled size of each MIB through the thin link, then report on
the corresponding allocation coldness after all cloning is complete.
To save size, a different bitcode record type is used for the allocation
info when the option is specified, and the sizes are kept separate from
the MIBs in the index.
Since the constructor of ContextEdge takes ContextIds by value, we
should move it to the corresponding member variable as suggested by
clang-tidy's performance-unnecessary-value-param.
While we are at it, this patch updates a couple of callers. To avoid
the ambiguity in the evaluation order among the constructor arguments,
I'm calling computeAllocType before calling the constructor.
The ContextIds set on the ContextNode struct is not technically needed
as we can compute it from either the callee or caller edge context ids.
Remove it and add a helper to recompute from the edges on demand. Also
add helpers to compute the node allocation type and whether the context
ids are empty from the edges without needing to first compute the node's
context id set, to minimize the runtime cost increase.
This yielded a 20% reduction in peak memory for a large thin link, for
about a 2% time increase (which is more than offset by some other recent
time efficiency improvements).
A cycle profile showed that we were spending a lot of time invoking
MapVector::erase. According to
https://llvm.org/docs/ProgrammersManual.html#llvm-adt-mapvector-h,
erasing elements one at a time is very inefficient for MapVector and it
is better to use remove_if.
This change resulted in around 7% time reduction on a large thin link.
While here remove an unused function that also invokes erase on
MapVectors.
When looking for missing frames due to tail calls, we were not checking
the output parameter of the recursive call in the correct place.
Make sure we check for the case when that recursive call returned false
due to multiple possible callee chains.
Extended the existing test a bit to catch this case.
Restructures the cloning slightly to perform all cloning for each
allocation separately. The prior algorithm would sometimes miss cloning
opportunities in cases where trimmed cold contexts partially overlapped
with longer contexts for different allocations.
Most of the change is isolated to the helpers that move edges to new or
existing clones, which now support moving a subset of context ids.
Restructure the handling of edges that become empty during the cloning
process. Instead of removing them as they become empty (no context ids
and alloc type), do this once after all cloning is complete.
This has no effect on the cloning result, but prepares for a follow on
change that does improve the cloning. The structural change here reduces
the diffs for the follow on change, which would be much more difficult
with the previous handling.
Fix a bug in the handling of cases where a callsite's stack ids
partially overlap with the pruned context during matching of
calls to the graph contructed from the profiled contexts. This fix makes
the code match the comments.
Fix for assert after PR#78264.
Handle the case where the MIB context is empty after skipping the
callsite context, because the callsite context is actually longer than
the MIB context. Presumably this happened as a result of inlining, but
in theory the metadata should have been replaced with an attribute in
that case. Need to investigate why this is occuring, but for now handle
this gracefully to fix the build regression.
As suggested in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/75823, to
avoid confusion with std::function_ref, qualify all uses with llvm::
(we were already using the llvm version, but this avoids ambiguity).
If tail call optimization was not disabled for the profiled binary, the
call contexts will be missing frames for tail calls. Handle this by
performing a limited search through tail call edges for the profiled
callee when a discontinuity is detected. The search depth is adjustable
but defaults to 5.
If we are able to identify a short sequence of tail calls, update the
graph for those calls. In the case of ThinLTO, synthesize the necessary
CallsiteInfos for carrying the cloning information to the backends.
Mirror the handling in ModuleSummaryAnalysis to look through aliases
when handling call instructions in the ThinLTO backend MemProf handling.

Adds an LTO option to indicate that whether we are linking with an
allocator that supports hot/cold operator new interfaces. If not,
at the start of the LTO backends any existing memprof hot/cold
attributes are removed from the IR, and we also remove memprof metadata
so that post-LTO inlining doesn't add any new attributes.
This is done via setting a new flag in the module summary index. It is
important to communicate via the index to the LTO backends so that
distributed ThinLTO handles this correctly, as they are invoked by
separate clang processes and the combined index is how we communicate
information from the LTO link. Specifically, for distributed ThinLTO the
LTO related processes look like:
```
# Thin link:
$ lld --thinlto-index-only obj1.o ... objN.o -llib ...
# ThinLTO backends:
$ clang -x ir obj1.o -fthinlto-index=obj1.o.thinlto.bc -c -O2
...
$ clang -x ir objN.o -fthinlto-index=objN.o.thinlto.bc -c -O2
```
It is during the thin link (lld --thinlto-index-only) that we have
visibility into linker dependences and want to be able to pass the new
option via -Wl,-supports-hot-cold-new. This will be recorded in the
summary indexes created for the distributed backend processes
(*.thinlto.bc) and queried from there, so that we don't need to know
during those individual clang backends what allocation library was
linked. Since in-process ThinLTO and regular LTO also use a combined
index, for consistency we query the flag out of the index in all LTO
backends.
Additionally, when the LTO option is disabled, exit early from the
MemProfContextDisambiguation handling performed during LTO, as this is
unnecessary.
