This makes it more robust when assertions are disabled,
crashing instead of causing UB.
Also introduces a tidy check to enforce this rule,
which in turn necessitated making tidy run on src/rustllvm.
Fixes#44020
This is a big hammer, but should be effective at completely removing a
few issues, including inconsistent error messages and segfaults when
LLVM workers race to report results
LLVM_THREAD_LOCAL has been present in LLVM since 8 months before 3.7
(the earliest supported LLVM version that Rust can use)
Maybe fixes#43402 (third time lucky?)
This commit is a refactoring of the LTO backend in Rust to support compilations
with multiple codegen units. The immediate result of this PR is to remove the
artificial error emitted by rustc about `-C lto -C codegen-units-8`, but longer
term this is intended to lay the groundwork for LTO with incremental compilation
and ultimately be the underpinning of ThinLTO support.
The problem here that needed solving is that when rustc is producing multiple
codegen units in one compilation LTO needs to merge them all together.
Previously only upstream dependencies were merged and it was inherently relied
on that there was only one local codegen unit. Supporting this involved
refactoring the optimization backend architecture for rustc, namely splitting
the `optimize_and_codegen` function into `optimize` and `codegen`. After an LLVM
module has been optimized it may be blocked and queued up for LTO, and only
after LTO are modules code generated.
Non-LTO compilations should look the same as they do today backend-wise, we'll
spin up a thread for each codegen unit and optimize/codegen in that thread. LTO
compilations will, however, send the LLVM module back to the coordinator thread
once optimizations have finished. When all LLVM modules have finished optimizing
the coordinator will invoke the LTO backend, producing a further list of LLVM
modules. Currently this is always a list of one LLVM module. The coordinator
then spawns further work to run LTO and code generation passes over each module.
In the course of this refactoring a number of other pieces were refactored:
* Management of the bytecode encoding in rlibs was centralized into one module
instead of being scattered across LTO and linking.
* Some internal refactorings on the link stage of the compiler was done to work
directly from `CompiledModule` structures instead of lists of paths.
* The trans time-graph output was tweaked a little to include a name on each
bar and inflate the size of the bars a little
When -Z profile is passed, the GCDAProfiling LLVM pass is added
to the pipeline, which uses debug information to instrument the IR.
After compiling with -Z profile, the $(OUT_DIR)/$(CRATE_NAME).gcno
file is created, containing initial profiling information.
After running the program built, the $(OUT_DIR)/$(CRATE_NAME).gcda
file is created, containing branch counters.
The created *.gcno and *.gcda files can be processed using
the "llvm-cov gcov" and "lcov" tools. The profiling data LLVM
generates does not faithfully follow the GCC's format for *.gcno
and *.gcda files, and so it will probably not work with other tools
(such as gcov itself) that consume these files.
[MIR] SwitchInt Everywhere
Something I've been meaning to do for a very long while. This PR essentially gets rid of 3 kinds of conditional branching and only keeps the most general one - `SwitchInt`. Primary benefits are such that dealing with MIR now does not involve dealing with 3 different ways to do conditional control flow. On the other hand, constructing a `SwitchInt` currently requires more code than what previously was necessary to build an equivalent `If` terminator. Something trivially "fixable" with some constructor methods somewhere (MIR needs stuff like that badly in general).
Some timings (tl;dr: slightly faster^1 (unexpected), but also uses slightly more memory at peak (expected)):
^1: Not sure if the speed benefits are because of LLVM liking the generated code better or the compiler itself getting compiled better. Either way, its a net benefit. The CORE and SYNTAX timings done for compilation without optimisation.

Emit DW_AT_main_subprogram
This changes rustc to emit DW_AT_main_subprogram on the "main" program.
This lets gdb suitably stop at the user's main in response to
"start" (rather than the library's main, which is what happens
currently).
Fixes#32620

Instead of directly creating a 'DIGlobalVariable', we now have to create
a 'DIGlobalVariableExpression' which itself contains a reference to a
'DIGlobalVariable'.
This is a straightforward change.
In the future, we should rename 'DIGlobalVariable' in the FFI
bindings, assuming we will only refer to 'DIGlobalVariableExpression'
and not 'DIGlobalVariable'.
LLVM Core C bindings provide this function for all the versions back to what we support (3.7), and
helps to avoid this unnecessary builder->function transition every time. Also a negative diff.
These switch statements cover all possible values, so the default case
is dead code (it contains an llvm_unreachable anyway), triggering a
-Wcovered-switch-default warning. Moving the unreachable after the
switch resolves these warnings. This keeps the build output clean.
Improve naming style in rustllvm.
As per the LLVM style guide, use CamelCase for all locals and classes,
and camelCase for all non-FFI functions.
Also, make names of variables of commonly used types more consistent.
Fixes#38688.

i128 and u128 support
Brings i128 and u128 support to nightly rust, behind a feature flag. The goal of this PR is to do the bulk of the work for 128 bit integer support. Smaller but just as tricky features needed for stabilisation like 128 bit enum discriminants are left for future PRs.
Rebased version of #37900, which in turn was a rebase + improvement of #35954 . Sadly I couldn't reopen#37900 due to github. There goes my premium position in the homu queue...

This teaches Rust about an LLVM 4.0 API change for creating debug info
for global variables.
This change was made in upstream LLVM patch https://reviews.llvm.org/D20147
This is almost 1:1 copy of how clang did it in http://reviews.llvm.org/D20415
Alignment was removed from createBasicType and moved to
- createGlobalVariable
- createAutoVariable
- createStaticMemberType (unused in Rust)
- createTempGlobalVariableFwdDecl (unused in Rust)

In LLVM 4.0, this enum becomes an actual type-safe enum, which breaks
all of the interfaces. Introduce our own copy of the bitflags that we
can then safely convert to the LLVM one.
StringRefs have a length and their contents are not usually null-terminated.
The solution is to either copy the string data (in rustc_llvm::diagnostic) or take the size into account (in LLVMRustPrintPasses).
I couldn't trigger a bug caused by this (apparently all the strings returned in practice are actually null-terminated) but this is more correct and more future-proof.
