In LTO, part of LLVM's middle-end runs after linking has finished. LTO's
semantics depend on the complete set of extracted bitcode files being
known at this time. If the middle-end inserts new calls to library
functions (libfuncs) that are implemented in bitcode, this could extract
new bitcode object files into the link. These cannot be compiled,
leading to undefined symbol references.
Additionally, the middle-end in LTO may reason that such library
functions have no references, and it may internalize them, then
manipulate their API or even delete them. Afterwards, it may emit a call
to them, again producing undefined symbol references.
This patch resolves the former issue by ensuring that the middle end
emits no new references to symbols defined in bitcode, and it resolves
the latter issue by ensuring that extracted bitcode for libfuncs is
considered external, since new calls may be emitted to them at any time.
The new semantics are not yet established for MachO LLD, which does not
yet appear to have any special handling for libcalls in LTO. It also
does not yet support distributed ThinLTO; doing so would require
additional (de)serialization work.
This is the patch referenced in @ilovepi's and my talk at the last LLVM
devmeeting: "LT-Uh-Oh"
Gemini 3.1 was used in porting to COFF and WASM LLDs.
When compiling WebAssembly with ThinLTO, functions are partitioned into
isolated `.bc` modules and dispatched to individual LTO backend threads.
During code generation, the `CoalesceFeaturesAndStripAtomics` pass
iterates over the module to gather the union of target features (like
`+atomics`) attached to defined functions. In particular when not using
threads, it lowers away atomics and TLS variables to their
single-threaded equivalents.
However, if a partitioned module only contains globally defined TLS
variables (e.g. there are no functions, or all functions were fully
inlined or stripped by dropDeadSymbols before ThinLTO optimization), the
module becomes completely devoid of function definitions. The coalescing
pass then falls back to fetching features from the `TargetMachine`.
Because in LTO the `TargetMachine` defaults to a generic target without
atomics enabled, the TLS is lowered away and the `wasm-feature-atomics`
flag is omitted from the resulting ThinLTO object partition, causing
`wasm-ld` to immediately reject it.
To fix this we take advantage of the fact that the linker always knows
whether threads are being used (via the --shared-memory flag). When
using shared memory, we enable +atomics and +bulk-memory in the
TargetMachine that is used for the backend, and the feature coalescing
pass will correctly detect the use of therads.
This only makes sense for atomics because of the global linker
configuration; for other features we wouldn't be able to do this, but we
don't rewrite away any other features anyway.
This patch implements support for handling archive members in DTLTO.
Unlike ThinLTO, where archive members are passed as in-memory buffers,
DTLTO requires archive members to be materialized as individual files on
the filesystem.
This is necessary because DTLTO invokes clang externally, which expects
file-based inputs.
To support this, this implementation identifies archive members among
the input files,
saves them to the filesystem, and updates their module_id to match their
file paths.
I couldn't find an existing way to pass -mcpu=lime1 equivalent to LTO
codegen.
This commit would privide one. With this commit, you can do so by
passing
`-mllvm -mcpu=lime1` to wasm-ld.
When generating C++ vtables, Clang declares virtual functions as
`void(void)` when their signature is not known (e.g.parameter types are
forward-declared). As WASM type checks imports, this would conflict with
the real definition during linking. Commit 59f959ff introduced a
workaround for this by deferring signature assignment until a definition
or direct call is seen.
When performing LTO, LLD first scans the bitcode files and creates
`DefinedFunction` symbol table entries for their contents. After LTO
codegen, they are replaced with `UndefinedFunction`s (so that the
definitions will be pulled in from the native LTO-d files when they are
added). At this point, if a function is only referenced in bitcode, its
signature remains `nullptr`.
From here, it should have behaved like in the non-LTO case: the first
direct call sets the signature. However, as the `isCalledDirectly` flag
was set to true, the missing signature was filled in by the type of the
first reference to the function, which could be a `void(void)` vtable
entry, which would then conflict with the real definition.
This commit sets `isCalledDirectly` to false so that the signature will
only be populated when a direct call is found.
See godotengine/godot#104497 and
emscripten-core/emscripten#10831
Change the global variable reference to a member access of another
variable `ctx`. In the future, we may pass through `ctx` to functions to
eliminate global variables.
Pull Request: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/119835
Allow controlling the CodeGenOpt::Level independent of the LTO
optimization level in LLD via new options for the COFF, ELF, MachO, and
wasm frontends to lld. Most are spelled as --lto-CGO[0-3], but COFF is
spelled as -opt:lldltocgo=[0-3].
See D57422 for discussion surrounding the issue of how to set the CG opt
level. The ultimate goal is to let each function control its CG opt
level, but until then the current default means it is impossible to
specify a CG opt level lower than 2 while using LTO. This option gives
the user a means to control it for as long as it is not handled on a
per-function basis.

This reverts commit 387620aa8cea33174b6c1fb80c1af713fee732ac.
Currently the lto native object files have names like main.exe.lto.1.obj. In
PDB, those names are used as names for each compiland. Microsoft’s tool
SizeBench uses those names to present to users the size of each object files.
So, names like main.exe.lto.1.obj is not user friendly.
This patch makes the lto native object file names more readable by using
the bitcode file names as part of the file names. For example, if the input
bitcode file has path like "path/to/foo.obj", its corresponding lto native
object file path would be "path/to/main.exe.lto.foo.obj". Since the lto native
object file name only bothers PDB, this patch only changes the lld-linker's
behavior.

A specific case for ThinLTO cache pruning is that the current build is huge, and the cache wasn't big enough to hold the intermediate object files of that build. So in doing that build, a file would be cached, and later in that same build it would be evicted. This was significantly decreasing the effectiveness of the cache. By giving this warning, the user could identify the required cache size/files and improve ThinLTO link speed.

Before this patch, it wasn't possible to extend the ThinLTO threads to all SMT/CMT threads in the system. Only one thread per core was allowed, instructed by usage of llvm::heavyweight_hardware_concurrency() in the ThinLTO code. Any number passed to the LLD flag /opt:lldltojobs=..., or any other ThinLTO-specific flag, was previously interpreted in the context of llvm::heavyweight_hardware_concurrency(), which means SMT disabled.
One can now say in LLD:
/opt:lldltojobs=0 -- Use one std::thread / hardware core in the system (no SMT). Default value if flag not specified.
/opt:lldltojobs=N -- Limit usage to N threads, regardless of usage of heavyweight_hardware_concurrency().
/opt:lldltojobs=all -- Use all hardware threads in the system. Equivalent to /opt:lldltojobs=$(nproc) on Linux and /opt:lldltojobs=%NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS% on Windows. When an affinity mask is set for the process, threads will be created only for the cores selected by the mask.
When N > number-of-hardware-threads-in-the-system, the threads in the thread pool will be dispatched equally on all CPU sockets (tested only on Windows).
When N <= number-of-hardware-threads-on-a-CPU-socket, the threads will remain on the CPU socket where the process started (only on Windows).

Undefined symbols in WebAssembly can come with custom `import-module`
and `import-field` attributes. However when reading symbols from
bitcode object files during LTO those curtom attributes are not
available.
Once we compile the LTO object and read in the symbol table from the
object file we have access to these custom attributes. In this case,
when undefined symbols are added and a symbol already exists in the
SymbolTable we can't simple return it, we may need to update the
symbol's attributes.

Summary:
In the clang UI, replaces -mthread-model posix with -matomics as the
source of truth on threading. In the backend, replaces
-thread-model=posix with the atomics target feature, which is now
collected on the WebAssemblyTargetMachine along with all other used
features. These collected features will also be used to emit the
target features section in the future.
The default configuration for the backend is thread-model=posix and no
atomics, which was previously an invalid configuration. This change
makes the default valid because the thread model is ignored.
A side effect of this change is that objects are never emitted with
passive segments. It will instead be up to the linker to decide
whether sections should be active or passive based on whether atomics
are used in the final link.
