LLVM_ENABLE_TIMESTAMPS controls if timestamps are embedded into llvm's
binaries. Turning it off is useful for deterministic builds.
r246905 made it so that the define suddenly also controls if the binaries that
the llvm binaries _create_ embed timestamps or not – but this shouldn't be a
configure-time option. r256203/r256204 added a driver option to toggle this on
and off, so this patch now passes this driver option in LLVM_ENABLE_TIMESTAMPS
builds so that if LLVM_ENABLE_TIMESTAMPS is set, the build of LLVM is
deterministic – but the built clang can still write timestamps into other
executables when requested.
This also allows removing some of the test machinery added in r292012 to work
around this problem.

Today, we always take into account the possibility that object files
produced by MC may be consumed by an incremental linker. This results
in us initialing fields which vary with time (TimeDateStamp) which harms
hermetic builds (e.g. verifying a self-host went well) and produces
sub-optimal code because we cannot assume anything about the relative
position of functions within a section (call sites can get redirected
through incremental linker thunks).
Let's provide an MCTargetOption which controls this behavior so that we
can disable this functionality if we know a-priori that the build will
not rely on /incremental.
llvm-svn: 256203
Support for COFF timestamps was unintentionally broken in r246905 when
it was conditionally available depending on whether or not LLVM was
configured with LLVM_ENABLE_TIMESTAMPS. However, Config/config.h was
never included which essentially broke the feature. Due to lax testing,
the breakage was never identified until we observed strange failures
during incremental links of Chromium.
This issue is resolved by simply including Config/config.h in
WinCOFFObjectWriter and teaching lit that the MC/COFF/timestamp.s test
is conditionally supported depending on LLVM_ENABLE_TIMESTAMPS. With
this in place, we can strengthen the test to ensure that it will not
accidentally get broken in the future.
This fixes PR25891.
llvm-svn: 256137
The COFF object writer was previously adding unnecessary symbols to its
temporary data structures and cleaning them up later. This made the code
harder to understand and caused a bug (aliases classed as temporary symbols
would cause an assertion failure). A much simpler way of handling such
symbols is to ask the layout for their section-relative position when needed.
Tested with a bootstrap on Windows and by building Chrome.

Starting on an input stream that is not at offset 0 would trigger the

Currently, if the assembler encounters an error after parsing (such as an
out-of-range fixup), it reports this as a fatal error, and so stops after the
first error. However, for most of these there is an obvious way to recover
after emitting the error, such as emitting the fixup with a value of zero. This
means that we can report on all of the errors in a file, not just the first
one. MCContext::reportError records the fact that an error was encountered, so
we won't actually emit an object file with the incorrect contents.

In this mode it just tries to tail merge the strings without imposing any other

Casting to unsigned long can cause the time to get truncated to 32-bits,
making it appear to be a valid timestamp. Just use isUInt<32> instead.
llvm-svn: 246840
The MS incremental linker seems to inspect the timestamp written into
the object file to determine whether or not it's contents need to be
considered. Failing to set the timestamp to a date newer than the
executable will result in the object file not participating in
subsequent links. To ameliorate this, write the current time into the
object file's TimeDateStamp field.
llvm-svn: 246607
COFF sections are accompanied with an auxiliary symbol which includes a
checksum. This checksum used to be filled with just zero but this seems
to upset LINK.exe when it is processing a /INCREMENTAL link job.
Instead, fill the CheckSum field with the JamCRC of the section
contents. This matches MSVC's behavior.
This fixes PR19666.
N.B. A rather simple implementation of JamCRC is given. It implements
a byte-wise calculation using the method given by Sarwate. There are
implementations with higher throughput like slice-by-eight and making
use of PCLMULQDQ. We can switch to one of those techniques if it turns
out to be a significant use of time.
llvm-svn: 246590
There are occasions where it is useful to consider the entirety of the
contents of a section. For example, compressed debug info needs the
entire section available before it can compress it and write it out.
The compressed debug info scenario was previously implemented by
mirroring the implementation of writeSectionData in the ELFObjectWriter.
Instead, allow the output stream to be swapped on demand. This lets
callers redirect the output stream to a more convenient location before
it hits the object file.
No functionality change is intended.

This intrinsic is like framerecover plus a load. It recovers the EH
registration stack allocation from the parent frame and loads the
exception information field out of it, giving back a pointer to an
EXCEPTION_POINTERS struct. It's designed for clang to use in SEH filter
expressions instead of accessing the EXCEPTION_POINTERS parameter that
is available on x64.
This required a minor change to MC to allow defining a label variable to
another absolute framerecover label variable.

Similar to r235222, but for the weak symbol case.
In an "ideal" assembler/object format an expression would always refer to the
final value and A-B would only be computed from a section in the same
comdat as A and B with A and B strong.
Unfortunately that is not the case with debug info on ELF, so we need an
heuristic. Since we need an heuristic, we may as well use the same one as
gas:
* call weak_sym : produces a relocation, even if in the same section.
* A - weak_sym and weak_sym -A: don't produce a relocation if we can
compute it.
This fixes pr23272 and changes the fix of pr22815 to match what gas does.

There is something in link.exe that requires a relocation to use a
global symbol. Not doing so breaks the chrome build on windows.
This patch sets isWeak for that to work. To compensate,
we then need to look past those symbols when not creating relocations.
This patch includes an ELF test that matches GNU as behaviour.
I am still reducing the chrome build issue and will add a test
once that is done.
llvm-svn: 233318
Windows supports a restricted set of relocations (compared to ARM ELF). In some
cases, we may end up generating an unsupported relocation. This can occur with
bad input to the assembler in particular (the frontend should never generate
code that cannot be compiled). Generate an error rather than just aborting.
The change in the API is driven by the desire to provide a slightly more helpful
message for debugging purposes.

The fixes are to note that AArch64 has additional restrictions on when local
relocations can be used. In particular, ld64 requires that relocations to
cstring/cfstrings use linker visible symbols.
Original message:
In an assembly expression like
bar:
.long L0 + 1
the intended semantics is that bar will contain a pointer one byte past L0.
In sections that are merged by content (strings, 4 byte constants, etc), a
single position in the section doesn't give the linker enough information.
For example, it would not be able to tell a relocation must point to the
end of a string, since that would look just like the start of the next.
The solution used in ELF to use relocation with symbols if there is a non-zero
addend.
In MachO before this patch we would just keep all symbols in some sections.
This would miss some cases (only cstrings on x86_64 were implemented) and was
inefficient since most relocations have an addend of 0 and can be represented
without the symbol.
This patch implements the non-zero addend logic for MachO too.

Referencing one symbol from another in the same section does not
generally require a relocation. However, the MS linker has a feature
called /INCREMENTAL which enables incremental links. It achieves this
by creating thunks to the actual function and redirecting all
relocations to point to the thunk.
This breaks down with the old scheme if you have a function which
references, say, itself. On x86_64, we would use %rip relative
addressing to reference the start of the function from out current
position. This would lead to miscompiles because other references might
reference the thunk instead, breaking function pointer equality.
This fixes PR21520.

On x86_64 this brings it from 80 bytes to 64 bytes. Also make any member

Teach WinCOFFObjectWriter how to write -mbig-obj style object files;
these object files allow for more sections inside an object file.
Our support for BigObj is notably different from binutils and cl: we
implicitly upgrade object files to BigObj instead of asking the user to
compile the same file *again* but with another flag. This matches up
with how LLVM treats ELF variants.
This was tested by forcing LLVM to always emit BigObj files and running
the entire test suite. A specific test has also been added.
I've lowered the maximum number of sections in a normal COFF file,
VS "14" CTP 3 supports no more than 65279 sections. This is important
otherwise we might not switch to BigObj quickly enough, leaving us with
a COFF file that we couldn't link.

The most significant difference that bigobj brings is more than 2**16
sections to COFF.
bigobj brings a few interesting differences with it:
- It doesn't have a Characteristics field in the file header.
- It doesn't have a SizeOfOptionalHeader field in the file header (it's
only used in executable files).
- Auxiliary symbol records have the same width as a symbol table entry.
Since symbol table entries are bigger, so are auxiliary symbol
records.

Prevent the early elimination of sections in the object writer. There may be
references to the section itself by other symbols, which may potentially not be
possible to resolve. ML (Visual Studio's Macro Assembler) also seems to retain
empty sections.
The elimination of symbols and sections which are unused should really occur at
the link phase. This will not cause any change in the resulting binary, simply
in the generated object files.
The adjustments to the other unit tests account for the fluctuating section
index caused by the appearance of sections which were previously discarded.

* Section association cannot use just the section name as many
sections can have the same name. With this patch, the comdat symbol in
an assoc section is interpreted to mean a symbol in the associated
section and the mapping is discovered from it.
* Comdat symbols were not being set correctly. Instead we were getting
whatever was output first for that section.
A consequence is that associative sections now must use .section to
set the association. Using .linkonce would not work since it is not
possible to change a sections comdat symbol (it is used to decide if
we should create a new section or reuse an existing one).
This includes r210298, which was reverted because it was asserting
on an associated section having the same comdat as the associated
section.
llvm-svn: 210367
We extended the .section syntax to allow multiple sections with the
same name but different comdats, but currently we don't make sure that
the output section has that comdat symbol.
That happens to work with the code llc produces currently because it looks like
.section secName, "dr", one_only, "COMDATSym"
.globl COMDATSym
COMDATSym:
....
but that is not very friendly to anyone coding in assembly or even to
llc once we get comdat support in the IR.
This patch changes the coff object writer to make sure the comdat symbol is
output just after the section symbol, as required by the coff spec.

The ARM specific object writer (ARMWinCOFFObjectWriter) handles the ARM specific
relocation handling in conjunction with the WinCOFFObjectWriter in the MC layer.
The MC layer needs to be updated to deal with the relocation adjustments.
Branch relocations are adjusted by 4 bytes (unlikely their ELF counterparts).
Minor tweaks to switch multiple conditional checks into equivalent switch
statements. The ObjectFileInfo is updated to relax the object file setup for
Windows COFF. Move the architecture checks into an assertion. Windows COFF is
currently only supported on x86, x86_64, and ARM (thumb). Rather than
defaulting to ELF, we will refuse to generate an object file. This is better
though as you do not get an (arbitrary) object file which is different from the
