There is support for intrinsics in Instruction::isCommunative, but there
is no equivalent implementation for isAssociative. This patch builds
support for associative intrinsics with TRE as an application. TRE can
now have associative intrinsics as an accumulator. For example:
```
struct Node {
Node *next;
unsigned val;
}
unsigned maxval(struct Node *n) {
if (!n) return 0;
return std::max(n->val, maxval(n->next));
}
```
Can be transformed into:
```
unsigned maxval(struct Node *n) {
struct Node *head = n;
unsigned max = 0; // Identity of unsigned std::max
while (true) {
if (!head) return max;
max = std::max(max, head->val);
head = head->next;
}
return max;
}
```
This example results in about 5x speedup in local runs.
We conservatively only consider min/max and as associative for this
patch to limit testing scope. There are probably other intrinsics that
could be considered associative. There are a few consumers of
isAssociative() that could be impacted. Testing has only required to
Reassociate pass be updated.
Debugify is extremely useful as a testing and debugging tool, and a good
number of LLVM-IR transform tests use it. We need it to support "new"
non-instruction debug-info to get test coverage, but it's not important
enough to completely convert right now (and it'd be a large
undertaking). Thus: convert to/from dbg.value/DPValue mode on entry and
exit of the pass, which gives us the functionality without any further
work. The cost is compile-time, but again this is only happening during
tests.
Tested by: the large set of debugify tests enabled here. Note the
InstCombine test (cast-mul-select.ll) that hasn't been fully enabled:
this is because there's a debug-info sinking piece of code there that
hasn't been instrumented.
When eliminating a tail call, we modify the values of the arguments.
Therefore, if the byval parameter has a readonly attribute, we have to remove it. It is safe because,
from the perspective of a caller, the byval parameter is always treated as "readonly," even if the readonly attribute is removed.
Fixes#64289.

The KCFI sanitizer, enabled with `-fsanitize=kcfi`, implements a
forward-edge control flow integrity scheme for indirect calls. It
uses a !kcfi_type metadata node to attach a type identifier for each
function and injects verification code before indirect calls.
Unlike the current CFI schemes implemented in LLVM, KCFI does not
require LTO, does not alter function references to point to a jump
table, and never breaks function address equality. KCFI is intended
to be used in low-level code, such as operating system kernels,
where the existing schemes can cause undue complications because
of the aforementioned properties. However, unlike the existing
schemes, KCFI is limited to validating only function pointers and is
not compatible with executable-only memory.
KCFI does not provide runtime support, but always traps when a
type mismatch is encountered. Users of the scheme are expected
to handle the trap. With `-fsanitize=kcfi`, Clang emits a `kcfi`
operand bundle to indirect calls, and LLVM lowers this to a
known architecture-specific sequence of instructions for each
callsite to make runtime patching easier for users who require this
functionality.
A KCFI type identifier is a 32-bit constant produced by taking the
lower half of xxHash64 from a C++ mangled typename. If a program
contains indirect calls to assembly functions, they must be
manually annotated with the expected type identifiers to prevent
errors. To make this easier, Clang generates a weak SHN_ABS
`__kcfi_typeid_<function>` symbol for each address-taken function
declaration, which can be used to annotate functions in assembly
as long as at least one C translation unit linked into the program
takes the function address. For example on AArch64, we might have
the following code:
```
.c:
int f(void);
int (*p)(void) = f;
p();
.s:
.4byte __kcfi_typeid_f
.global f
f:
...
```
Note that X86 uses a different preamble format for compatibility
with Linux kernel tooling. See the comments in
`X86AsmPrinter::emitKCFITypeId` for details.
As users of KCFI may need to locate trap locations for binary
validation and error handling, LLVM can additionally emit the
locations of traps to a `.kcfi_traps` section.
Similarly to other sanitizers, KCFI checking can be disabled for a
function with a `no_sanitize("kcfi")` function attribute.

This introduces a new "ptrauth" operand bundle to be used in
call/invoke. At the IR level, it's semantically equivalent to an
@llvm.ptrauth.auth followed by an indirect call, but it additionally
provides additional hardening, by preventing the intermediate raw
pointer from being exposed.
This mostly adds the IR definition, verifier checks, and support in
a couple of general helper functions. Clang IRGen and backend support
will come separately.
Note that we'll eventually want to support this bundle in indirectbr as
well, for similar reasons. indirectbr currently doesn't support bundles
at all, and the IR data structures need to be updated to allow that.

There's a potential change in dereferenceability attribute semantics in the nearish future. See llvm-dev thread "RFC: Decomposing deref(N) into deref(N) + nofree" and D99100 for context.
This change simply adds appropriate attributes to tests to keep transform logic exercised under both old and new/proposed semantics. Note that for many of these cases, O3 would infer exactly these attributes on the test IR.
This change handles the idiomatic pattern of a dereferenceable object being passed to a call which can not free that memory. There's a couple other tests which need more one-off attention, they'll be handled in another change.
The D82085 "allow TRE for non-capturing calls" caused failure during bootstrap.
This patch does the same as D82085 plus fixes bootstrap error.
The problem with D82085 is that it does not create copies for byval
operands, while replacing function call with a branch.
Consider following example:
```
int zoo ( S p1 );
int foo ( int count, S p1 ) {
if ( count > 10 )
return zoo(p1);
// temporarily variable created for passing byvalue parameter
// p1 could be used when zoo(p1) is called(after TRE is done).
// lifetime.start p1.byvalue.temp
return foo(count+1, p1);
// lifetime.end p1.byvalue.temp
}
```
After recursive call to foo is replaced with a jump into
start of the function, its parameters could be passed to
zoo function. i.e. temporarily variable created for byvalue
parameter "p1" could be passed to zoo. Finally zoo receives
broken operand:
```
int foo ( int count, S p1 ) {
:tailrecurse
p1_tr = phi p1, p1.byvalue.temp
if ( count > 10 )
return zoo(p1_tr);
// temporarily variable created for passing byvalue parameter
// p1 could be used when zoo(p1) is called(after TRE is done).
lifetime.start p1.byvalue.temp
memcpy (p1.byvalue.temp, p1_tr)
count = count + 1
lifetime.end p1.byvalue.temp
br tailrecurse
}
```
To prevent using p1.byvalue.temp after its scope finished by
lifetime.end marker this patch copies value from p1.byvalue.temp
into another temporarily variable and then copies this variable
into the input parameter for next iteration.
This patch passes bootstrap build and bootstrap build with AddressSanitizer.

explicitly emitting retainRV or claimRV calls in the IR
This reapplies ed4718eccb12bd42214ca4fb17d196d49561c0c7, which was reverted
because it was causing a miscompile. The bug that was causing the miscompile
has been fixed in 75805dce5ff874676f3559c069fcd6737838f5c0.
Original commit message:
Background:
This fixes a longstanding problem where llvm breaks ARC's autorelease
optimization (see the link below) by separating calls from the marker
instructions or retainRV/claimRV calls. The backend changes are in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D92569.
https://clang.llvm.org/docs/AutomaticReferenceCounting.html#arc-runtime-objc-autoreleasereturnvalue
What this patch does to fix the problem:
- The front-end adds operand bundle "clang.arc.attachedcall" to calls,
which indicates the call is implicitly followed by a marker
instruction and an implicit retainRV/claimRV call that consumes the
call result. In addition, it emits a call to
@llvm.objc.clang.arc.noop.use, which consumes the call result, to
prevent the middle-end passes from changing the return type of the
called function. This is currently done only when the target is arm64
and the optimization level is higher than -O0.
- ARC optimizer temporarily emits retainRV/claimRV calls after the calls
with the operand bundle in the IR and removes the inserted calls after
processing the function.
- ARC contract pass emits retainRV/claimRV calls after the call with the
operand bundle. It doesn't remove the operand bundle on the call since
the backend needs it to emit the marker instruction. The retainRV and
claimRV calls are emitted late in the pipeline to prevent optimization
passes from transforming the IR in a way that makes it harder for the
ARC middle-end passes to figure out the def-use relationship between
the call and the retainRV/claimRV calls (which is the cause of
PR31925).
- The function inliner removes an autoreleaseRV call in the callee if
nothing in the callee prevents it from being paired up with the
retainRV/claimRV call in the caller. It then inserts a release call if
claimRV is attached to the call since autoreleaseRV+claimRV is
equivalent to a release. If it cannot find an autoreleaseRV call, it
tries to transfer the operand bundle to a function call in the callee.
This is important since the ARC optimizer can remove the autoreleaseRV
returning the callee result, which makes it impossible to pair it up
with the retainRV/claimRV call in the caller. If that fails, it simply
emits a retain call in the IR if retainRV is attached to the call and
does nothing if claimRV is attached to it.
- SCCP refrains from replacing the return value of a call with a
constant value if the call has the operand bundle. This ensures the
call always has at least one user (the call to
@llvm.objc.clang.arc.noop.use).
- This patch also fixes a bug in replaceUsesOfNonProtoConstant where
multiple operand bundles of the same kind were being added to a call.
Future work:
- Use the operand bundle on x86-64.
- Fix the auto upgrader to convert call+retainRV/claimRV pairs into
calls with the operand bundles.

The current implementation of Tail Recursion Elimination has a very restricted
pre-requisite: AllCallsAreTailCalls. i.e. it requires that no function
call receives a pointer to local stack. Generally, function calls that
receive a pointer to local stack but do not capture it - should not
break TRE. This fix allows us to do TRE if it is proved that no pointer
to the local stack is escaped.

In r339636 the alias analysis rules were changed with regards to tail calls
and byval arguments. Previously, tail calls were assumed not to alias
allocas from the current frame. This has been updated, to not assume this
for arguments with the byval attribute.
This patch aligns TailCallElim with the new rule. Tail marking can now be
more aggressive and mark more calls as tails, e.g.:
define void @test() {
%f = alloca %struct.foo
call void @bar(%struct.foo* byval %f)
ret void
}
define void @test2(%struct.foo* byval %f) {
call void @bar(%struct.foo* byval %f)
ret void
}
define void @test3(%struct.foo* byval %f) {
%agg.tmp = alloca %struct.foo
%0 = bitcast %struct.foo* %agg.tmp to i8*
%1 = bitcast %struct.foo* %f to i8*
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i64(i8* %0, i8* %1, i64 40, i1 false)
call void @bar(%struct.foo* byval %agg.tmp)
ret void
}
The problematic case where a byval parameter is captured by a call is still
handled correctly, and will not be marked as a tail (see PR7272).

After applying this patch, the DomTree only recalculates if needed (plus an extra insertEdge() + an extra deleteEdge() call).
When optimizing SQLite with `-passes="default<O3>"` pipeline of the newPM, the number of DomTree recalculation decreases by 6.2%, the number of nodes visited by DFS decreases by 2.9%. The time used by DomTree will decrease approximately 1%~2.5% after applying the patch.
Statistics:
```
Before the patch:
23010 dom-tree-stats - Number of DomTree recalculations
489264 dom-tree-stats - Number of nodes visited by DFS -- DomTree
After the patch:
21581 dom-tree-stats - Number of DomTree recalculations
475088 dom-tree-stats - Number of nodes visited by DFS -- DomTree
```

In order to set breakpoints on labels and list source code around
labels, we need collect debug information for labels, i.e., label
name, the function label belong, line number in the file, and the
address label located. In order to keep these information in LLVM
IR and to allow backend to generate debug information correctly.
We create a new kind of metadata for labels, DILabel. The format
of DILabel is
!DILabel(scope: !1, name: "foo", file: !2, line: 3)
We hope to keep debug information as much as possible even the
code is optimized. So, we create a new kind of intrinsic for label
metadata to avoid the metadata is eliminated with basic block.
The intrinsic will keep existing if we keep it from optimized out.
The format of the intrinsic is
llvm.dbg.label(metadata !1)
It has only one argument, that is the DILabel metadata. The
intrinsic will follow the label immediately. Backend could get the
label metadata through the intrinsic's parameter.
We also create DIBuilder API for labels to be used by Frontend.
Frontend could use createLabel() to allocate DILabel objects, and use
insertLabel() to insert llvm.dbg.label intrinsic in LLVM IR.

Summary:
In some specific scenarios with well understood operand bundle types
(like `"deopt"`) it may be possible to go ahead and convert recursion to
iteration, but TailRecursionElimination does not have that logic today
so avoid doing the right thing for now.
I need some input on whether `"funclet"` operand bundles should also
block tail recursion elimination. If not, I'll allow TRE across calls
with `"funclet"` operand bundles and add a test case.
