Split `Metadata` away from the `Value` class hierarchy, as part of
PR21532. Assembly and bitcode changes are in the wings, but this is the
bulk of the change for the IR C++ API.
I have a follow-up patch prepared for `clang`. If this breaks other
sub-projects, I apologize in advance :(. Help me compile it on Darwin
I'll try to fix it. FWIW, the errors should be easy to fix, so it may
be simpler to just fix it yourself.
This breaks the build for all metadata-related code that's out-of-tree.
Rest assured the transition is mechanical and the compiler should catch
almost all of the problems.
Here's a quick guide for updating your code:
- `Metadata` is the root of a class hierarchy with three main classes:
`MDNode`, `MDString`, and `ValueAsMetadata`. It is distinct from
the `Value` class hierarchy. It is typeless -- i.e., instances do
*not* have a `Type`.
- `MDNode`'s operands are all `Metadata *` (instead of `Value *`).
- `TrackingVH<MDNode>` and `WeakVH` referring to metadata can be
replaced with `TrackingMDNodeRef` and `TrackingMDRef`, respectively.
If you're referring solely to resolved `MDNode`s -- post graph
construction -- just use `MDNode*`.
- `MDNode` (and the rest of `Metadata`) have only limited support for
`replaceAllUsesWith()`.
As long as an `MDNode` is pointing at a forward declaration -- the
result of `MDNode::getTemporary()` -- it maintains a side map of its
uses and can RAUW itself. Once the forward declarations are fully
resolved RAUW support is dropped on the ground. This means that
uniquing collisions on changing operands cause nodes to become
"distinct". (This already happened fairly commonly, whenever an
operand went to null.)
If you're constructing complex (non self-reference) `MDNode` cycles,
you need to call `MDNode::resolveCycles()` on each node (or on a
top-level node that somehow references all of the nodes). Also,
don't do that. Metadata cycles (and the RAUW machinery needed to
construct them) are expensive.
- An `MDNode` can only refer to a `Constant` through a bridge called
`ConstantAsMetadata` (one of the subclasses of `ValueAsMetadata`).
As a side effect, accessing an operand of an `MDNode` that is known
to be, e.g., `ConstantInt`, takes three steps: first, cast from
`Metadata` to `ConstantAsMetadata`; second, extract the `Constant`;
third, cast down to `ConstantInt`.
The eventual goal is to introduce `MDInt`/`MDFloat`/etc. and have
metadata schema owners transition away from using `Constant`s when
the type isn't important (and they don't care about referring to
`GlobalValue`s).
In the meantime, I've added transitional API to the `mdconst`
namespace that matches semantics with the old code, in order to
avoid adding the error-prone three-step equivalent to every call
site. If your old code was:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(isa <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(cast <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(cast_or_null <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(dyn_cast <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(dyn_cast_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
you can trivially match its semantics with:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(mdconst::hasa <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(mdconst::extract <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(mdconst::extract_or_null <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(mdconst::dyn_extract <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(mdconst::dyn_extract_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
and when you transition your metadata schema to `MDInt`:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(isa <MDInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(cast <MDInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(cast_or_null <MDInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(dyn_cast <MDInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(dyn_cast_or_null<MDInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
- A `CallInst` -- specifically, intrinsic instructions -- can refer to
metadata through a bridge called `MetadataAsValue`. This is a
subclass of `Value` where `getType()->isMetadataTy()`.
`MetadataAsValue` is the *only* class that can legally refer to a
`LocalAsMetadata`, which is a bridged form of non-`Constant` values
like `Argument` and `Instruction`. It can also refer to any other
`Metadata` subclass.
(I'll break all your testcases in a follow-up commit, when I propagate
this change to assembly.)

When lazy reading a module, the types used in a function will not be visible to
a TypeFinder until the body is read.
This patch fixes that by asking the module for its identified struct types.
If a materializer is present, the module asks it. If not, it uses a TypeFinder.
This fixes pr21374.
I will be the first to say that this is ugly, but it was the best I could find.
Some of the options I looked at:
* Asking the LLVMContext. This could be made to work for gold, but not currently
for ld64. ld64 will load multiple modules into a single context before merging
them. This causes us to see types from future merges. Unfortunately,
MappedTypes is not just a cache when it comes to opaque types. Once the
mapping has been made, we have to remember it for as long as the key may
be used. This would mean moving MappedTypes to the Linker class and having
to drop the Linker::LinkModules static methods, which are visible from C.
* Adding an option to ignore function bodies in the TypeFinder. This would
fix the PR by picking the worst result. It would work, but unfortunately
we are currently quite dependent on the upfront type merging. I will
try to reduce our dependency, but it is not clear that we will be able
to get rid of it for now.
The only clean solution I could think of is making the Module own the types.
This would have other advantages, but it is a much bigger change. I will
propose it, but it is nice to have this fixed while that is discussed.
With the gold plugin, this patch takes the number of types in the LTO clang
binary from 52817 to 49669.

Having two ways to do this doesn't seem terribly helpful and
consistently using the insert version (which we already has) seems like
it'll make the code easier to understand to anyone working with standard
data structures. (I also updated many references to the Entry's
key and value to use first() and second instead of getKey{Data,Length,}
and get/setValue - for similar consistency)
Also removes the GetOrCreateValue functions so there's less surface area
to StringMap to fix/improve/change/accommodate move semantics, etc.

Summary:
This makes PIC levels a Module flag attribute, which can be queried by the
backend. The flag is named `PIC Level`, and can have a value of:
0 - Backend-default
1 - Small-model (-fpic)
2 - Large-model (-fPIC)
These match the `-pic-level' command line argument for clang, and the value of the
preprocessor macro `__PIC__'.
Test Plan:
New flags tests specific for the 'PIC Level' module flag.
Tests to be added as part of a future commit for PowerPC, which will use this new API.

Change `NamedMDNode::getOperator()` from returning `MDNode *` to
returning `Value *`. To reduce boilerplate at some call sites, add a
`getOperatorAsMDNode()` for named metadata that's expected to only
return `MDNode` -- for now, that's everything, but debug node named
metadata (such as llvm.dbg.cu and llvm.dbg.sp) will soon change. This
is part of PR21433.

To do this, change the representation of lazy loaded functions.
The previous representation cannot differentiate between a function whose body
has been removed and one whose body hasn't been read from the .bc file. That
means that in order to drop a function, the entire body had to be read.

The attached patch simplifies a few interfaces that don't need to take
ownership of a buffer.
For example, both parseAssembly and parseBitcodeFile will parse the
entire buffer before returning. There is no need to take ownership.
Using a MemoryBufferRef makes it obvious in the type signature that
there is no ownership transfer.

This new IR facility allows us to represent the object-file semantic of
a COMDAT group.
COMDATs allow us to tie together sections and make the inclusion of one
dependent on another. This is required to implement features like MS
ABI VFTables and optimizing away certain kinds of initialization in C++.
This functionality is only representable in COFF and ELF, Mach-O has no
similar mechanism.

This allows us to just use a std::unique_ptr to store the pointer to the buffer.
The flip side is that they have to support releasing the buffer back to the
caller.
Overall this looks like a more efficient and less brittle api.

During LTO, user-supplied definitions of C library functions often
exist. -instcombine uses Module::getOrInsertFunction() to get a handle
on library functions (e.g., @puts, when optimizing @printf).
Previously, Module::getOrInsertFunction() would rename any matching
functions with local linkage, and create a new declaration. In LTO,
this is the opposite of desired behaviour, as it skips by the
user-supplied version of the library function and creates a new
undefined reference which the linker often cannot resolve.
After some discussing with Rafael on the list, it looks like it's
undesired behaviour. If a consumer actually *needs* this behaviour, we
should add new API with a more explicit name.
I added two testcases: one specifically for the -instcombine behaviour
and one for the LTO flow.

This compiles with no changes to clang/lld/lldb with MSVC and includes
overloads to various functions which are used by those projects and llvm
which have OwningPtr's as parameters. This should allow out of tree
projects some time to move. There are also no changes to libs/Target,
which should help out of tree targets have time to move, if necessary.

After this commit, the only IR-library headers in include/llvm/* are
ones related to the legacy pass infrastructure that I'm planning to
leave there until the new one is farther along.
The only other headers at the top level are linking and initialization
aids that aren't really libraries but just headers.

This may seem an odd thing to put in the IR library but we only really
use this with instructions and it needs the LLVM context to work, so it
is intrinsically tied to the IR library.

No tool does this currently, but as everything else in a module we should be
able to change its DataLayout.
Most of the fix is in DataLayout to make sure it can be reset properly.
The test uses Module::setDataLayout since the fact that we mutate a DataLayout
is an implementation detail. The module could hold a OwningPtr<DataLayout> and
the DataLayout itself could be immutable.
Thanks to Philip Reames for pushing me in the right direction.

Now that DataLayout is not a pass, store one in Module.
Since the C API expects to be able to get a char* to the datalayout description,
we have to keep a std::string somewhere. This patch keeps it in Module and also
uses it to represent modules without a DataLayout.
Once DataLayout is mandatory, we should probably move the string to DataLayout
itself since it won't be necessary anymore to represent the special case of a
module without a DataLayout.

It will seg fault when calling getDebugInfoVersionFromModule because of the

getModuleFlagsMetadata more robust by checking for error conditions.

into their new header subdirectory: include/llvm/IR. This matches the
directory structure of lib, and begins to correct a long standing point
of file layout clutter in LLVM.
There are still more header files to move here, but I wanted to handle
them in separate commits to make tracking what files make sense at each
layer easier.
The only really questionable files here are the target intrinsic
tablegen files. But that's a battle I'd rather not fight today.
I've updated both CMake and Makefile build systems (I think, and my
tests think, but I may have missed something).
I've also re-sorted the includes throughout the project. I'll be

Aside from moving the actual files, this patch only updates the build
system and the source file comments under lib/... that are relevant.
I'll be updating other docs and other files in smaller subsequnet

While I've tried to test this, but it is entirely possible that there
will still be some build system fallout.
Also, note that I've not changed the library name itself: libLLVMCore.a
is still the library name. I'd be interested in others' opinions about
whether we should rename this as well (I think we should, just not sure
what it might break)
