In existing MachInst backends, many instructions -- any that can trap or
result in a relocation -- carry `SourceLoc` values in order to propagate
the location-in-original-source to use to describe resulting traps or
relocation errors.
This is quite tedious, and also error-prone: it is likely that the
necessary plumbing will be missed in some cases, and in any case, it's
unnecessarily verbose.
This PR factors out the `SourceLoc` handling so that it is tracked
during emission as part of the `EmitState`, and plumbed through
automatically by the machine-independent framework. Instruction emission
code that directly emits trap or relocation records can query the
current location as necessary. Then we only need to ensure that memory
references and trap instructions, at their (one) emission point rather
than their (many) lowering/generation points, are wired up correctly.
This does have the side-effect that some loads and stores that do not
correspond directly to user code's heap accesses will have unnecessary
but harmless trap metadata. For example, the load that fetches a code
offset from a jump table will have a 'heap out of bounds' trap record
attached to it; but because it is bounds-checked, and will never
actually trap if the lowering is correct, this should be harmless. The
simplicity improvement here seemed more worthwhile to me than plumbing
through a "corresponds to user-level load/store" bit, because the latter
is a bit complex when we allow for op merging.
Closes#2290: though it does not implement a full "metadata" scheme as
described in that issue, this seems simpler overall.
This PR updates the AArch64 ABI implementation so that it (i) properly
respects that v8-v15 inclusive have callee-save lower halves, and
caller-save upper halves, by conservatively approximating (to full
registers) in the appropriate directions when generating prologue
caller-saves and when informing the regalloc of clobbered regs across
callsites.
In order to prevent saving all of these vector registers in the prologue
of every non-leaf function due to the above approximation, this also
makes use of a new regalloc.rs feature to exclude call instructions'
writes from the clobber set returned by register allocation. This is
safe whenever the caller and callee have the same ABI (because anything
the callee could clobber, the caller is allowed to clobber as well
without saving it in the prologue).
Fixes#2254.
This commit adds arm32 code generation for some IR insts.
Floating-point instructions are not supported, because regalloc
does not allow to represent overlapping register classes,
which are needed by VFP/Neon.
There is also no support for big-endianness, I64 and I128 types.
