Link: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/57375
A catch handler calls `__cxa_begin_catch` and `__cxa_end_catch`. For a catch-all
clause or a catch clause matching a record type, we:
* assume that the exception object may have a throwing destructor
* emit `invoke void @__cxa_end_catch` (as the call is not marked as the `nounwind` attribute).
* emit a landing pad to destroy local variables and call `_Unwind_Resume`
```
struct A { ~A(); };
struct B { int x; };
void opaque();
void foo() {
A a;
try { opaque(); } catch (...) { } // the exception object has an unknown type and may throw
try { opaque(); } catch (B b) { } // B::~B is nothrow, but we do not utilize this
}
```
Per C++ [dcl.fct.def.coroutine], a coroutine's function body implies a `catch (...)`.
Our code generation pessimizes even simple code, like:
```
UserFacing foo() {
A a;
opaque();
co_return;
// For `invoke void @__cxa_end_catch()`, the landing pad destroys the
// promise_type and deletes the coro frame.
}
```
Throwing destructors are typically discouraged. In many environments, the
destructors of exception objects are guaranteed to never throw, making our
conservative code generation approach seem wasteful.
Furthermore, throwing destructors tend not to work well in practice:
* GCC does not emit call site records for the region containing `__cxa_end_catch`. This has been a long time, since 2000.
* If a catch-all clause catches an exception object that throws, both GCC and Clang using libstdc++ leak the allocated exception object.
To avoid code generation pessimization, add an opt-in driver option
-fassume-nothrow-exception-dtor to assume that `__cxa_end_catch` calls have the
`nounwind` attribute. This implies that thrown exception objects' destructors
will never throw.
To detect misuses, diagnose throw expressions with a potentially-throwing
destructor. Technically, it is possible that a potentially-throwing destructor
never throws when called transitively by `__cxa_end_catch`, but these cases seem
rare enough to justify a relaxed mode.

Since C++14 has been released for about nine years and most standard
libraries have implemented sized deallocation functions, it's time to
make this feature default again.

This adds -no-opaque-pointers to clang tests whose output will
change when opaque pointers are enabled by default. This is
intended to be part of the migration approach described in
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/enabling-opaque-pointers-by-default/61322/9.
The patch has been produced by replacing %clang_cc1 with
%clang_cc1 -no-opaque-pointers for tests that fail with opaque
pointers enabled. Worth noting that this doesn't cover all tests,
there's a remaining ~40 tests not using %clang_cc1 that will need
a followup change.

[Clang/Test]: Rename enable_noundef_analysis to disable-noundef-analysis and turn it off by default (2)
This patch updates test files after D105169.
Autogenerated test codes are changed by `utils/update_cc_test_checks.py,` and non-autogenerated test codes are changed as follows:
(1) I wrote a python script that (partially) updates the tests using regex: {F18594904} The script is not perfect, but I believe it gives hints about which patterns are updated to have `noundef` attached.
(2) The remaining tests are updated manually.

Now in libcxx and clang, all the coroutine components are defined in
std::experimental namespace.
And now the coroutine TS is merged into C++20. So in the working draft
like N4892, we could find the coroutine components is defined in std
namespace instead of std::experimental namespace.
And the coroutine support in clang seems to be relatively stable. So I
think it may be suitable to move the coroutine component into the
experiment namespace now.
This patch would make clang lookup coroutine_traits in std namespace
first. For the compatibility consideration, clang would lookup in
std::experimental namespace if it can't find definitions in std
namespace. So the existing codes wouldn't be break after update
compiler.
And in case the compiler found std::coroutine_traits and
std::experimental::coroutine_traits at the same time, it would emit an
error for it.
The support for looking up std::experimental::coroutine_traits would be
removed in Clang16.

But move the coroutine component into the std namespace may be an break
change. So I planned to split this change into two patch. One in clang
and other in libcxx.
This patch would make clang lookup coroutine_traits in std namespace
first. For the compatibility consideration, clang would lookup in
std::experimental namespace if it can't find definitions in std

For a default visibility external linkage definition, dso_local is set for ELF
-fno-pic/-fpie and COFF and Mach-O. Since default clang -cc1 for ELF is similar
to -fpic ("PIC Level" is not set), this nuance causes unneeded binary format differences.
To make emitted IR similar, ELF -cc1 -fpic will default to -fno-semantic-interposition,
which sets dso_local for default visibility external linkage definitions.
To make this flip smooth and enable future (dso_local as definition default),
this patch replaces (function) `define ` with `define{{.*}} `,
(variable/constant/alias) `= ` with `={{.*}} `, or inserts appropriate `{{.*}} `.
Summary:
Right now we annotate C++'s `operator new` with `noalias` attribute,
which very much is healthy for optimizations.
However as per [[ http://eel.is/c++draft/basic.stc.dynamic.allocation | `[basic.stc.dynamic.allocation]` ]],
there are more promises on global `operator new`, namely:
* non-`std::nothrow_t` `operator new` *never* returns `nullptr`
* If `std::align_val_t align` parameter is taken, the pointer will also be `align`-aligned
* ~~global `operator new`-returned pointer is `__STDCPP_DEFAULT_NEW_ALIGNMENT__`-aligned ~~ It's more caveated than that.
Supplying this information may not cause immediate landslide effects
on any specific benchmarks, but it for sure will be healthy for optimizer
in the sense that the IR will better reflect the guarantees provided in the source code.
The caveat is `-fno-assume-sane-operator-new`, which currently prevents emitting `noalias`
attribute, and is automatically passed by Sanitizers ([[ https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16386 | PR16386 ]]) - should it also cover these attributes?
The problem is that the flag is back-end-specific, as seen in `test/Modules/explicit-build-flags.cpp`.
But while it is okay to add `noalias` metadata in backend, we really should be adding at least
the alignment metadata to the AST, since that allows us to perform sema checks on it.

Summary:
Clang -fpic defaults to -fno-semantic-interposition (GCC -fpic defaults
to -fsemantic-interposition).
Users need to specify -fsemantic-interposition to get semantic
interposition behavior.
Semantic interposition is currently a best-effort feature. There may
still be some cases where it is not handled well.
