[Clang] Fix getTerminator() use for -fasync-exceptions (#189644) 2026-03-31 12:50:25 +00:00

[IR] Require well-formed IR for BasicBlock::getTerminator (#189416)
BasicBlock::getTerminator() is frequently called on valid IR, yet the
function has to check that the last instruction is in fact a terminator,
even in release builds. This check can only be optimized away when the
instruction is dereferenced.

Therefore, introduce the functions hasTerminator() and
getTerminatorOrNull() as replacement and require (assert) that
getTerminator() always returns a valid terminator. As a side effect,
this forces explicit expression of intent at call sites when unfinished
basic blocks should be supported.

[WinEH] Fix crash when aligning parameters larger than ABI (#180905)
Fix #180648 caused by an unhandled `Argument` for parameters exceeding
ABI size limits. This patch explicitly emits an `alloca` for the `Argument` in 
the entry block to ensure correct address resolution.

[CodeGen] Use data layout aware constant folder in CGBuilder (#184819)
Use the DataLayout-aware TargetFolder instead of ConstantFolder in
Clang's CGBuilder. The primary impact of this change is that GEP
constant expressions are now emitted in canonical `getelementptr i8`
form. This is in preparation for the migration to ptradd, which requires
this form.

Part of the test updates were performed by Claude Code and reviewed by
me.

[clang] remove unused SrcAddr parameter from performAddrSpaceCast (#179330)
The conversion code always ended up just getting the type of Src from
the Src argument itself, with no virtual users of this, so there is no
point in also providing this API hook. Fix the documentation as well,
since it seems DestAddr must have been similarly removed at some point
in the past from the API but was still documented.

Also fixes CIR to actually return the casted value!

[clang] Move ExceptionHandling from LangOptions to CodeGenOptions (#148982)
This PR removes the command line parsing workaround introduced in
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/146342 by moving
`LangOptions::ExceptionHandling` to `CodeGenOptions` that get parsed
even for IR input. Additionally, this improves layering, where the
codegen library now checks `CodeGenOptions` instead of `LangOptions` for
exception handling. (This got enabled by
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/146422.)

clang: Remove dest LangAS argument from performAddrSpaceCast (#138866)
It isn't used and is redundant with the result pointer type argument.
A more reasonable API would only have LangAS parameters, or IR parameters,
not both. Not all values have a meaningful value for this. I'm also
not sure why we have this at all, it's not overridden by any targets and
further simplification is possible.

[NFC][DebugInfo] Use iterator-flavour getFirstNonPHI at many call-sites (#123737)
As part of the "RemoveDIs" project, BasicBlock::iterator now carries a
debug-info bit that's needed when getFirstNonPHI and similar feed into
instruction insertion positions. Call-sites where that's necessary were
updated a year ago; but to ensure some type safety however, we'd like to
have all calls to getFirstNonPHI use the iterator-returning version.

This patch changes a bunch of call-sites calling getFirstNonPHI to use
getFirstNonPHIIt, which returns an iterator. All these call sites are
where it's obviously safe to fetch the iterator then dereference it. A
follow-up patch will contain less-obviously-safe changes.

We'll eventually deprecate and remove the instruction-pointer
getFirstNonPHI, but not before adding concise documentation of what
considerations are needed (very few).

instruction insertion positions. Call-sites where that's necessary were

This patch adds a (guaranteed dereferenceable) iterator-taking
moveBefore, and changes a bunch of call-sites where it's obviously safe
to change to use it by just calling getIterator() on an instruction
pointer. A follow-up patch will contain less-obviously-safe changes.

We'll eventually deprecate and remove the instruction-pointer
insertBefore, but not before adding concise documentation of what
considerations are needed (very few).

[Clang][CodeGen] Start migrating away from assuming the Default AS is 0 (#88182)
At the moment, Clang is rather liberal in assuming that 0 (and by extension unqualified) is always a safe default. This does not work for targets that actually use a different value for the default / generic AS (for example, the SPIRV that obtains from HIPSPV or SYCL). This patch is a first, fairly safe step towards trying to clear things up by querying a modules' default AS from the target, rather than assuming it's 0, alongside fixing a few places where things break / we encode the 0 == DefaultAS assumption. A bunch of existing tests are extended to check for non-zero default AS usage.

[CodeGen][arm64e] Add methods and data members to Address, which are needed to authenticate signed pointers (#86923)
To authenticate pointers, CodeGen needs access to the key and
discriminators that were used to sign the pointer. That information is
sometimes known from the context, but not always, which is why `Address`
needs to hold that information.

This patch adds methods and data members to `Address`, which will be
needed in subsequent patches to authenticate signed pointers, and uses
the newly added methods throughout CodeGen. Although this patch isn't
strictly NFC as it causes CodeGen to use different code paths in some
cases (e.g., `mergeAddressesInConditionalExpr`), it doesn't cause any
changes in functionality as it doesn't add any information needed for
authentication.

In addition to the changes mentioned above, this patch introduces class
`RawAddress`, which contains a pointer that we know is unsigned, and
adds several new functions for creating `Address` and `LValue` objects.

This reapplies d9a685a9dd589486e882b722e513ee7b8c84870c, which was
reverted because it broke ubsan bots. There seems to be a bug in
coroutine code-gen, which is causing EmitTypeCheck to use the wrong
alignment. For now, pass alignment zero to EmitTypeCheck so that it can
compute the correct alignment based on the passed type (see function
EmitCXXMemberOrOperatorMemberCallExpr).

3c9988f85d [OpenMP] Allow exceptions in target regions when offloading to GPUs
The motivation for this patch is that many code bases use exception handling. As GPUs are not expected to support exception handling in the near future, we can experiment with compiling the code for GPU targets anyway. This will
allow us to run the code, as long as no exception is thrown.

The overall idea is very simple:
- If a throw expression is compiled to AMDGCN or NVPTX, it is replaced with a trap during code generation.
- If a try/catch statement is compiled to AMDGCN or NVPTX, we generate code for the try statement as if it were a basic block.

With this patch, the compilation of the following example
```
int gaussian_sum(int a,int b){
	if ((a + b) % 2 == 0) {throw -1;};
	return (a+b) * ((a+b)/2);
}

int main(void) {
	int gauss = 0;
	#pragma omp target map(from:gauss)
	{
		try {
			gauss = gaussian_sum(1,100);
		}
		catch (int e){
			gauss = e;
		}
	}
	std::cout << "GaussianSum(1,100)="<<gauss<<std::endl;
        #pragma omp target map(from:gauss)
        {
                try {
                     	gauss = gaussian_sum(1,101);
                }
                catch (int e){
                        gauss = e;
                }
        }
	std::cout << "GaussianSum(1,101)="<<gauss<<std::endl;
	return (gauss > 1) ? 0 : 1;
}
```
with offloading to `gfx906` results in
```
./bin/target_try_minimal_fail
GaussianSum(1,100)=5050

691927c904 Fix assertion when try is used inside catch(...) block
Current assert wiht /EHa:
A single unwind edge may only enter one EH pad
  invoke void @llvm.seh.try.begin()

%1 = catchpad within %0 [ptr null, i32 0, ptr null]
   invoke void @llvm.seh.try.begin()

The problem is the invoke to llvm.seh.try.begin() missing "funclet"

Accodring: https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#ob-funclet
If any "funclet" EH pads have been entered but not exited (per the
description in the EH doc), it is undefined behavior to execute a
call or invoke.

To fix the problem, when emit seh_try_begin,  call EmitSehTryScopeBegin,
instead of calling EmitRuntimeCallOrInvoke for proper "funclet"

Per C++17 [except.spec], 'throw()' has become equivalent to

3eb12b0ae1 [WebAssembly] Warn on exception spec for Emscripten EH
It turns out we have not correctly supported exception spec all along in
Emscripten EH. Emscripten EH supports `throw()` but not `throw` with
types. See https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50396.

Wasm EH also only supports `throw()` but not `throw` with types, and we
have been printing a warning message for the latter. This prints the
same warning message for `throw` with types when Emscripten EH is used,
or more precisely, when Wasm EH is not used. (So this will print the
warning messsage even when `-fno-exceptions` is used but I think that
should be fine. It's cumbersome to do a complilcated option checking in
CGException.cpp and options checkings are mostly done in elsewhere.)

797ad70152 [Windows SEH]: HARDWARE EXCEPTION HANDLING (MSVC -EHa) - Part 1
This patch is the Part-1 (FE Clang) implementation of HW Exception handling.

This new feature adds the support of Hardware Exception for Microsoft Windows
SEH (Structured Exception Handling).
This is the first step of this project; only X86_64 target is enabled in this patch.

Compiler options:
For clang-cl.exe, the option is -EHa, the same as MSVC.
For clang.exe, the extra option is -fasync-exceptions,
plus -triple x86_64-windows -fexceptions and -fcxx-exceptions as usual.

NOTE:: Without the -EHa or -fasync-exceptions, this patch is a NO-DIFF change.

The rules for C code:
For C-code, one way (MSVC approach) to achieve SEH -EHa semantic is to follow
three rules:
* First, no exception can move in or out of _try region., i.e., no "potential
  faulty instruction can be moved across _try boundary.
* Second, the order of exceptions for instructions 'directly' under a _try
  must be preserved (not applied to those in callees).
* Finally, global states (local/global/heap variables) that can be read
  outside of _try region must be updated in memory (not just in register)
  before the subsequent exception occurs.

The impact to C++ code:
Although SEH is a feature for C code, -EHa does have a profound effect on C++
side. When a C++ function (in the same compilation unit with option -EHa ) is
called by a SEH C function, a hardware exception occurs in C++ code can also
be handled properly by an upstream SEH _try-handler or a C++ catch(...).
As such, when that happens in the middle of an object's life scope, the dtor
must be invoked the same way as C++ Synchronous Exception during unwinding
process.

Design:
A natural way to achieve the rules above in LLVM today is to allow an EH edge
added on memory/computation instruction (previous iload/istore idea) so that
exception path is modeled in Flow graph preciously. However, tracking every
single memory instruction and potential faulty instruction can create many
Invokes, complicate flow graph and possibly result in negative performance
impact for downstream optimization and code generation. Making all
optimizations be aware of the new semantic is also substantial.

This design does not intend to model exception path at instruction level.
Instead, the proposed design tracks and reports EH state at BLOCK-level to
reduce the complexity of flow graph and minimize the performance-impact on CPP
code under -EHa option.

One key element of this design is the ability to compute State number at
block-level. Our algorithm is based on the following rationales:

A _try scope is always a SEME (Single Entry Multiple Exits) region as jumping
into a _try is not allowed. The single entry must start with a seh_try_begin()
invoke with a correct State number that is the initial state of the SEME.
Through control-flow, state number is propagated into all blocks. Side exits
marked by seh_try_end() will unwind to parent state based on existing
SEHUnwindMap[].
Note side exits can ONLY jump into parent scopes (lower state number).
Thus, when a block succeeds various states from its predecessors, the lowest
State triumphs others.  If some exits flow to unreachable, propagation on those
paths terminate, not affecting remaining blocks.
For CPP code, object lifetime region is usually a SEME as SEH _try.
However there is one rare exception: jumping into a lifetime that has Dtor but
has no Ctor is warned, but allowed:

Warning: jump bypasses variable with a non-trivial destructor

In that case, the region is actually a MEME (multiple entry multiple exits).
Our solution is to inject a eha_scope_begin() invoke in the side entry block to
ensure a correct State.

Implementation:
Part-1: Clang implementation described below.

Two intrinsic are created to track CPP object scopes; eha_scope_begin() and eha_scope_end().
_scope_begin() is immediately added after ctor() is called and EHStack is pushed.
So it must be an invoke, not a call. With that it's also guaranteed an
EH-cleanup-pad is created regardless whether there exists a call in this scope.
_scope_end is added before dtor(). These two intrinsics make the computation of
Block-State possible in downstream code gen pass, even in the presence of
ctor/dtor inlining.

Two intrinsic, seh_try_begin() and seh_try_end(), are added for C-code to mark
_try boundary and to prevent from exceptions being moved across _try boundary.
All memory instructions inside a _try are considered as 'volatile' to assure
2nd and 3rd rules for C-code above. This is a little sub-optimized. But it's
acceptable as the amount of code directly under _try is very small.

Part-2 (will be in Part-2 patch): LLVM implementation described below.

For both C++ & C-code, the state of each block is computed at the same place in
BE (WinEHPreparing pass) where all other EH tables/maps are calculated.
In addition to _scope_begin & _scope_end, the computation of block state also
rely on the existing State tracking code (UnwindMap and InvokeStateMap).

For both C++ & C-code, the state of each block with potential trap instruction
is marked and reported in DAG Instruction Selection pass, the same place where
the state for -EHsc (synchronous exceptions) is done.
If the first instruction in a reported block scope can trap, a Nop is injected
before this instruction. This nop is needed to accommodate LLVM Windows EH
implementation, in which the address in IPToState table is offset by +1.
(note the purpose of that is to ensure the return address of a call is in the
same scope as the call address.

The handler for catch(...) for -EHa must handle HW exception. So it is
'adjective' flag is reset (it cannot be IsStdDotDot (0x40) that only catches
C++ exceptions).
Suppress push/popTerminate() scope (from noexcept/noTHrow) so that HW
exceptions can be passed through.

because it was needed to pass the assert in CodeGenFunction::EmitLValueForLambdaField,
But this was not right to do as CodeGenFunction::FinishFunction passes it to EmitEndEHSpec
and cause corruption of the EHStack.

Revert the part of the commit that changes the CurCodeDecl, and instead
adjust the assert to check for a null CurCodeDecl.
