This patch adds initial support for Integrated Distributed ThinLTO
(DTLTO) in LLVM, which manages distribution internally during the
traditional link step. This enables compatibility with any build
system that supports in-process ThinLTO. In contrast, existing
approaches to distributed ThinLTO, which split the thin-link
(--thinlto-index-only), backend compilation, and final link into
separate steps, require build system support, e.g. Bazel.
This patch implements the core DTLTO mechanism, which enables
delegation of ThinLTO backend jobs to an external process (the
distributor). The distributor can then manage job distribution through
systems like Incredibuild. A generic JSON interface is used to
communicate with the distributor, allowing for the creation of new
distributors (and thus integration with different distribution
systems) without modifying LLVM.
Please see llvm/docs/dtlto.rst for more details.

As with the other update scripts this takes the output of
-passes=print<gisel-value-tracking> and inserts the results into an
existing mir file. This means that the input is a lot like
update_analysis_test_checks.py, and the output needs to insert into a
mir file similarly to update_mir_test_checks.py. The code used to do the
inserting has been moved to common, to allow it to be reused. Otherwise
it tries to reuse the existing infrastructure, and
update_givaluetracking_test_checks is kept relatively short.
- Change `Name`, `SubopNames`, `PrinterMethodName`, and
`EncoderMethodNames` to be stored as StringRef.
- Also changed `CheckComplexPatMatcher::Name` to StringRef as a fallout
from the above.
Verified that all the tablegen generated files within LLVM are
unchanged.
UpdateTestChecks has a make_analyzer_generalizer to replace pointer
addressess from the debug output of LAA with a pattern, which is an
acceptable solution when there is one RUN line. However, when there are
multiple RUN lines with a common pattern, UTC fails to recognize common
output due to mismatched pointer addresses. Instead of hacking UTC scrub
the output before comparing the outputs from the different RUN lines,
fix the issue once and for all by making LAA not output unstable pointer
addresses in the first place.
The removal of the now-dead make_analyzer_generalizer is left as a
non-trivial exercise for a follow-up.
Remove extraneous qualifications from names when
- the name is explicitly enclosed by corresponding namespaces, and
- the name is in a body of a function defined in corresponding
namespaces. Otherwise add missing qualifications.
This applies to individual sections of TableGen output, and makes name
lookup independent of the context in which these sections are included.
This patch fixes:
llvm/utils/TableGen/Common/CodeGenRegisters.cpp:653:57: error:
'getValues' is deprecated: Use getElements instead
[-Werror,-Wdeprecated-declarations]
Rename `ListInit::getValues()` to `getElements()` to better match with
other `ListInit` members like `getElement`. Keep `getValues()` for
existing downstream code but mark it deprecated.
The .syntax unified directive and .codeX/.code X directives are, other
than some simple common printing code, exclusively implemented in the
targets themselves. Thus, remove the corresponding MCAF_* flags and
reimplement the directives solely within the targets. This avoids
exposing all targets to all other targets' flags.
Since MCAF_SubsectionsViaSymbols is all that remains, convert it to its
own function like other directives, simplifying its implementation.
Note that, on X86, we now always need a target streamer when parsing
assembly, as it's now used for directives that aren't COFF-specific. It
still does not however need to do anything when producing a non-COFF
object file, so this commit does not introduce any new target streamers.
There is some churn in test output, and corresponding UTC regex changes,
due to comments no longer being flushed by these various directives (and
EmitEOL is not exposed outside MCAsmStreamer.cpp so we couldn't do so
even if we wanted to), but that was a bit odd to be doing anyway.
This is motivated by Morello LLVM, which adds yet another assembler flag
to distinguish A64 and C64 instruction sets, but did not update every
switch and so emits warnings during the build. Rather than fix those
warnings it seems better to instead make the problem not exist in the
first place via this change.
- Add `DagInit::get` overloads that do not need ValName to be specified.
- Fix some calls to either not create temporary arrays for DAG args or
use the std::pair<> overload.
