This commit moves the bulk of
LinkGraphLinkingLayer::registerDependencies into a new static method,
LinkGraphLinkingLayer::calculateDepGroups, where the behavior can be
unit tested.
The new method returns a list of LinkGraphLinkingLayer::SymbolDepGroups:
```
struct SymbolDepGroup {
SmallVector<jitlink::Symbol*> Defs;
DenseSet<jitlink::Symbol*> Deps;
};
```
The existing registerDependencies method converts these into
orc::SymbolDependenceGroups for registration with the ExecutionSession.
The calculateDepGroups method uses a new algorithm for calculating
dependencies between symbols in the LinkGraph. As before, the goal is to
compute dependencies of non-locally-scoped symbols defined within the
graph on other non-locally-scoped symbols in the graph (whether defined
by the graph or external). It is sufficient to record the first
non-locally-scoped symbol defined for each block reached (since such
symbols will have their own dependencies reported, and all such symbols
for a given block will have the same dependencies). The new algorithm
uses SCCIterator to visit strongly connected components within the
subgraph formed by edges to "anonymous" blocks (i.e. blocks that do not
define any non-locally-scoped symbols). These are visited in reverse-DFS
order, allowing dependencies to be efficiently propagated.
This change results in a ~2x speedup when JIT-loading clang (as tested
on a 2023 MacBook Pro, 12-core M3 Pro, 18Gb).
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
