This PR propagates "value labels" all the way from CLIF to DWARF
metadata on the emitted machine code. The key idea is as follows:
- Translate value-label metadata on the input into "value_label"
pseudo-instructions when lowering into VCode. These
pseudo-instructions take a register as input, denote a value label,
and semantically are like a "move into value label" -- i.e., they
update the current value (as seen by debugging tools) of the given
local. These pseudo-instructions emit no machine code.
- Perform a dataflow analysis *at the machine-code level*, tracking
value-labels that propagate into registers and into [SP+constant]
stack storage. This is a forward dataflow fixpoint analysis where each
storage location can contain a *set* of value labels, and each value
label can reside in a *set* of storage locations. (Meet function is
pairwise intersection by storage location.)
This analysis traces value labels symbolically through loads and
stores and reg-to-reg moves, so it will naturally handle spills and
reloads without knowing anything special about them.
- When this analysis converges, we have, at each machine-code offset, a
mapping from value labels to some number of storage locations; for
each offset for each label, we choose the best location (prefer
registers). Note that we can choose any location, as the symbolic
dataflow analysis is sound and guarantees that the value at the
value_label instruction propagates to all of the named locations.
- Then we can convert this mapping into a format that the DWARF
generation code (wasmtime's debug crate) can use.
This PR also adds the new-backend variant to the gdb tests on CI.
The asserts on the sizes of the VCode constant-table data structures
introduced in PR #2328 are dependent on the size of data structures such
as `HashMap` in the standard library, which can change. In particular,
on Rust 1.46 (which is not current, but could be e.g. pinned by a
project using Cranelift), it appears that these asserts fail. We
shouldn't depend on stdlib internals; IMHO the asserts on our own struct
sizes are enough to catch accidental size blowups.
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.
* Make cranelift_codegen::isa::unwind::input public
* Move UnwindCode's common offset field out of the structure
* Make MachCompileResult::unwind_info more generic
* Record initial stack pointer offset
This approach suffers from memory-size bloat during compile time due to the desire to de-duplicate the constants emitted and reduce runtime memory-size. As a first step, though, this provides an end-to-end mechanism for constants to be emitted in the MachBuffer islands.
A new associated type Info is added to MachInstEmit, which is the
immutable counterpart to State. It can't easily be constructed from an
ABICallee, since it would require adding an associated type to the
latter, and making so leaks the associated type in a lot of places in
the code base and makes the code harder to read. Instead, the EmitInfo
state can simply be passed to the `Vcode::emit` function directly.
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.
Previously, in #2128, we factored out a common "vanilla 64-bit ABI"
implementation from the AArch64 ABI code, with the idea that this should
be largely compatible with x64. This PR alters the new x64 backend to
make use of the shared infrastructure, removing the duplication that
existed previously. The generated code is nearly (not exactly) the same;
the only difference relates to how the clobber-save region is padded in
the prologue.
This also changes some register allocations in the aarch64 code because
call support in the shared ABI infra now passes a temp vreg in, rather
than requiring use of a fixed, non-allocable temp; tests have been
updated, and the runtime behavior is unchanged.
This PR adds a bit more granularity to the output of e.g. `clif-util
compile -T`, indicating how much time is spent in VCode lowering and
various other new-backend-specific tasks.
This commit adds support for generating stackmaps at safepoints to the
new backend framework and to the AArch64 backend in particular. It has
been tested to work with SpiderMonkey.
Adds support for addss and subss. This is the first lowering for
sse floating point alu and some move operations. The changes here do
some renaming of data structures and adds a couple of new ones
to support sse specific operations. The work done here will likely
evolve as needed to support an efficient, inituative, and consistent
framework.
This patch includes:
- A complete rework of the way that CLIF blocks and edge blocks are
lowered into VCode blocks. The new mechanism in `BlockLoweringOrder`
computes RPO over the CFG, but with a twist: it merges edge blocks intto
heads or tails of original CLIF blocks wherever possible, and it does
this without ever actually materializing the full nodes-plus-edges
graph first. The backend driver lowers blocks in final order so
there's no need to reshuffle later.
- A new `MachBuffer` that replaces the `MachSection`. This is a special
version of a code-sink that is far more than a humble `Vec<u8>`. In
particular, it keeps a record of label definitions and label uses,
with a machine-pluggable `LabelUse` trait that defines various types
of fixups (basically internal relocations).
Importantly, it implements some simple peephole-style branch rewrites
*inline in the emission pass*, without any separate traversals over
the code to use fallthroughs, swap taken/not-taken arms, etc. It
tracks branches at the tail of the buffer and can (i) remove blocks
that are just unconditional branches (by redirecting the label), (ii)
understand a conditional/unconditional pair and swap the conditional
polarity when it's helpful; and (iii) remove branches that branch to
the fallthrough PC.
The `MachBuffer` also implements branch-island support. On
architectures like AArch64, this is needed to allow conditional
branches within plausibly-attainable ranges (+/- 1MB on AArch64
specifically). It also does this inline while streaming through the
emission, without any sort of fixpoint algorithm or later moving of
code, by simply tracking outstanding references and "deadlines" and
emitting an island just-in-time when we're in danger of going out of
range.
- A rework of the instruction selector driver. This is largely following
the same algorithm as before, but is cleaned up significantly, in
particular in the API: the machine backend can ask for an input arg
and get any of three forms (constant, register, producing
instruction), indicating it needs the register or can merge the
constant or producing instruction as appropriate. This new driver
takes special care to emit constants right at use-sites (and at phi
inputs), minimizing their live-ranges, and also special-cases the
"pinned register" to avoid superfluous moves.
Overall, on `bz2.wasm`, the results are:
wasmtime full run (compile + runtime) of bz2:
baseline: 9774M insns, 9742M cycles, 3.918s
w/ changes: 7012M insns, 6888M cycles, 2.958s (24.5% faster, 28.3% fewer insns)
clif-util wasm compile bz2:
baseline: 2633M insns, 3278M cycles, 1.034s
w/ changes: 2366M insns, 2920M cycles, 0.923s (10.7% faster, 10.1% fewer insns)
All numbers are averages of two runs on an Ampere eMAG.
This PR changes the aarch64 ABI implementation to use positive offsets
from SP, rather than negative offsets from FP, to refer to spill slots
and stack-local storage. This allows for better addressing-mode options,
and hence slightly better code: e.g., the unsigned scaled 12-bit offset
mode can be used to reach anywhere in a 32KB frame without extra
address-construction instructions, whereas negative offsets are limited
to a signed 9-bit unscaled mode (-256 bytes).
To enable this, the PR introduces a notion of "nominal SP offsets" as a
virtual addressing mode, lowered during the emission pass. The offsets
are relative to "SP after adjusting downward to allocate stack/spill
slots", but before pushing clobbers. This allows the addressing-mode
expressions to be generated before register allocation (or during it,
for spill/reload sequences).
To convert these offsets into *true* offsets from SP, we need to track
how much further SP is moved downward, and compensate for this. We do so
with "virtual SP offset adjustment" pseudo-instructions: these are seen
by the emission pass, and result in no instruction (0 byte output), but
update state that is now threaded through each instruction emission in
turn. In this way, we can push e.g. stack args for a call and adjust
the virtual SP offset, allowing reloads from nominal-SP-relative
spillslots while we do the argument setup with "real SP offsets" at the
same time.
Previously, the SourceLoc information transferred in `VCode` only
included PC-spans for non-default SourceLocs. I realized that the
invariant we're supposed to keep here is that every PC is covered; if no
source information, just use `SourceLoc::default()`.
This was spurred by @bjorn3's comment in #1575 (thanks!).
This PR updates Cranelift to use the new version of regalloc.rs
(bytecodealliance/regalloc.rs#55) that provides dense vreg->rreg maps to
the `map_reg()` function for each instruction, rather than the earlier
hashmap-based approach.
In one test (regex-rs.wasm), this PR results in a 15% reduction in
memory allocations (1245MB -> 1060MB) as measured by DHAT on `clif-util
wasm` runs.
This change adds SourceLoc information per instruction in a `VCode<Inst>`
container, and keeps this information up-to-date across register allocation
and branch reordering. The information is initially collected during
instruction lowering, eventually collected on the MachSection, and finally
provided to the environment that wraps the codegen crate for wasmtime.
- Undo temporary changes to default features (`all-arch`) and a
signal-handler test.
- Remove `SIGTRAP` handler: no longer needed now that we've found an
"undefined opcode" option on ARM64.
- Rename pp.rs to pretty_print.rs in machinst/.
- Only use empty stack-probe on non-x86. As per a comment in
rust-lang/compiler-builtins [1], LLVM only supports stack probes on
x86 and x86-64. Thus, on any other CPU architecture, we cannot refer
to `__rust_probestack`, because it does not exist.
- Rename arm64 to aarch64.
- Use `target` directive in vcode filetests.
- Run the flags verifier, but without encinfo, when using new backends.
- Clean up warning overrides.
- Fix up use of casts: use u32::from(x) and siblings when possible,
u32::try_from(x).unwrap() when not, to avoid silent truncation.
- Take immutable `Function` borrows as input; we don't actually
mutate the input IR.
- Lots of other miscellaneous cleanups.

This patch adds the MachInst, or Machine Instruction, infrastructure.
This is the machine-independent portion of the new backend design. It
contains the implementation of the "vcode" (virtual-registerized code)
container, the top-level lowering algorithm and compilation pipeline,
and the trait definitions that the machine backends will fill in.
This backend infrastructure is included in the compilation of the
`codegen` crate, but it is not yet tied into the public APIs; that patch
will come last, after all the other pieces are filled in.
This patch contains code written by Julian Seward <jseward@acm.org> and
Benjamin Bouvier <public@benj.me>, originally developed on a side-branch
before rebasing and condensing into this patch series. See the `arm64`
branch at `https://github.com/cfallin/wasmtime` for original development
history.
