This changes a bunch of places which use getAs<TagType>, including
derived types, just to obtain the tag definition.
This is preparation for #155028, offloading all the changes that PR used
to introduce which don't depend on any new helpers.

This is a major change on how we represent nested name qualifications in
the AST.
* The nested name specifier itself and how it's stored is changed. The
prefixes for types are handled within the type hierarchy, which makes
canonicalization for them super cheap, no memory allocation required.
Also translating a type into nested name specifier form becomes a no-op.
An identifier is stored as a DependentNameType. The nested name
specifier gains a lightweight handle class, to be used instead of
passing around pointers, which is similar to what is implemented for
TemplateName. There is still one free bit available, and this handle can
be used within a PointerUnion and PointerIntPair, which should keep
bit-packing aficionados happy.
* The ElaboratedType node is removed, all type nodes in which it could
previously apply to can now store the elaborated keyword and name
qualifier, tail allocating when present.
* TagTypes can now point to the exact declaration found when producing
these, as opposed to the previous situation of there only existing one
TagType per entity. This increases the amount of type sugar retained,
and can have several applications, for example in tracking module
ownership, and other tools which care about source file origins, such as
IWYU. These TagTypes are lazily allocated, in order to limit the
increase in AST size.
This patch offers a great performance benefit.
It greatly improves compilation time for
[stdexec](https://github.com/NVIDIA/stdexec). For one datapoint, for
`test_on2.cpp` in that project, which is the slowest compiling test,
this patch improves `-c` compilation time by about 7.2%, with the
`-fsyntax-only` improvement being at ~12%.
This has great results on compile-time-tracker as well:

This patch also further enables other optimziations in the future, and
will reduce the performance impact of template specialization resugaring
when that lands.
It has some other miscelaneous drive-by fixes.
About the review: Yes the patch is huge, sorry about that. Part of the
reason is that I started by the nested name specifier part, before the
ElaboratedType part, but that had a huge performance downside, as
ElaboratedType is a big performance hog. I didn't have the steam to go
back and change the patch after the fact.
There is also a lot of internal API changes, and it made sense to remove
ElaboratedType in one go, versus removing it from one type at a time, as
that would present much more churn to the users. Also, the nested name
specifier having a different API avoids missing changes related to how
prefixes work now, which could make existing code compile but not work.
How to review: The important changes are all in
`clang/include/clang/AST` and `clang/lib/AST`, with also important
changes in `clang/lib/Sema/TreeTransform.h`.
The rest and bulk of the changes are mostly consequences of the changes
in API.
PS: TagType::getDecl is renamed to `getOriginalDecl` in this patch, just
for easier to rebasing. I plan to rename it back after this lands.

This enables the LLVM optimizer to view accesses to distinct struct
members as independent, also for array members. For example, the
following two stores no longer alias:
struct S { int a[10]; int b; };
void test(S *p, int i) {
p->a[i] = ...;
p->b = ...;
}
Array members were already added to TBAA struct type nodes in commit
57493e29. Here, we extend a path tag for an array subscript expression.

Commit 77d3f8a avoids distinct tags for any pointers where the ultimate
pointee type is `void`, to solve breakage in real-world code that uses
(indirections to) `void*` for polymorphism over different pointer types.
While this matches the TBAA implementation in GCC, this patch implements
a refinement that distinguishes void pointers by pointer depth, as
described in the "strict aliasing" documentation included in the
aforementioned commit:
> `void*` is permitted to alias any pointer type, `void**` is permitted
> to alias any pointer to pointer type, and so on.
For example, `void**` is no longer considered to alias `int*` in this
refinement, but it remains possible to use `void**` for polymorphism
over pointers to pointers.

While there are no special rules in the standards regarding void
pointers and strict aliasing, emitting distinct tags for void pointers
break some common idioms and there is no good alternative to re-write
the code without strict-aliasing violations. An example is to count the
entries in an array of pointers:
int count_elements(void * values) {
void **seq = values;
int count;
for (count = 0; seq && seq[count]; count++);
return count;
}
https://clang.godbolt.org/z/8dTv51v8W
An example in the wild is from
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/119099
This patch avoids emitting distinct tags for void pointers, to avoid
those idioms causing mis-compiles for now.

This patch introduces the Clang components of type sanitizer: a
sanitizer for type-based aliasing violations.
It is based on Hal Finkel's https://reviews.llvm.org/D32198.
The Clang changes are mostly formulaic, the one specific change being
that when the TBAA sanitizer is enabled, TBAA is always generated, even
at -O0.
It goes together with the corresponding LLVM changes
(https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/76259) and compiler-rt
changes (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/76261)

For unnamed structs or unions, C's compatible types rule applies. Two
compatible types in different compilation units can have different
mangled names, meaning the metadata emitted below would incorrectly mark
them as no-alias. Use AnyPtr for such types in both C and C++, as C and
C++ types may be visible when doing LTO.

Be conservative if the type isn't a record type. Handling other types
may
require stripping const-qualifiers inside the type, e.g.
MemberPointerType.
Also look through array types same as through pointer types, to not
pessimize
arrays of pointers.
Without this, we assign different tags to the accesses for p an q in the
second test in cwg158.

(#98138)
In incremental compilation clang works with multiple `llvm::Module`s.
Our current approach is to create a CodeGenModule entity for every new
module request (via StartModule). However, some of the state such as the
mangle context needs to be preserved to keep the original semantics in
the ever-growing TU.

The constructor initializes `*this` with `M->getDataLayout()`, which
is effectively the same as calling the copy constructor.
There does not seem to be a case where a copy would be necessary.

depths,types. (#76612)"
This reverts the revert commit bee240367cc48bbc93fe5eb57d537968dfe4419f.
This version includes updates to the tests to use patterns when matching
the pointer argument.
Original commit message:
This patch extends Clang's TBAA generation code to emit distinct tags
for incompatible pointer types.
Pointers with different element types are incompatible if the pointee
types are also incompatible (modulo sugar/modifiers).
Express this in TBAA by generating different tags for pointers based on
the pointer depth and pointee type. To get the TBAA tag for the pointee
type it uses getTypeInfoHelper on the pointee type.

This is a follow-up from the conversation starting at
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/93809#issuecomment-2173729801
The root problem that motivated the change are external AST sources that
compute `ASTRecordLayout`s themselves instead of letting Clang compute
them from the AST. One such example is LLDB using DWARF to get the
definitive offsets and sizes of C++ structures. Such layouts should be
considered correct (modulo buggy DWARF), but various assertions and
lowering logic around the `CGRecordLayoutBuilder` relies on the AST
having `[[no_unique_address]]` attached to them. This is a
layout-altering attribute which is not encoded in DWARF. This causes us
LLDB to trip over the various LLVM<->Clang layout consistency checks.
There has been precedent for avoiding such layout-altering attributes
from affecting lowering with externally-provided layouts (e.g., packed
structs).
This patch proposes to replace the `isZeroSize` checks in
`CGRecordLayoutBuilder` (which roughly means "empty field with
[[no_unique_address]]") with checks for
`CodeGen::isEmptyField`/`CodeGen::isEmptyRecord`.
**Details**
The main strategy here was to change the `isZeroSize` check in
`CGRecordLowering::accumulateFields` and
`CGRecordLowering::accumulateBases` to use the `isEmptyXXX` APIs
instead, preventing empty fields from being added to the `Members` and
`Bases` structures. The rest of the changes fall out from here, to
prevent lookups into these structures (for field numbers or base
indices) from failing.
Added `isEmptyRecordForLayout` and `isEmptyFieldForLayout` (open to
better naming suggestions). The main difference to the existing
`isEmptyRecord`/`isEmptyField` APIs, is that the `isEmptyXXXForLayout`
counterparts don't have special treatment for `unnamed bitfields`/arrays
and also treat fields of empty types as if they had
`[[no_unique_address]]` (i.e., just like the `AsIfNoUniqueAddr` in
`isEmptyField` does).

We always capitalize bitfield as "BitField".
|
|
A couple of cleanups.
1) remove an unnecessary check from isValidBaseType.
2) Add a new internal entrypoint 'getValidBaseTypeInfo', for uses where the type is known to be valid.
|
|
When generating tbaa.struct metadata we treat multiple adjacent
bitfields as a single "field", with one corresponding entry in the
metadata. At the moment this is achieved by adding an entry for the
first bitfield in the run using its StorageSize and skipping the
remaining bitfields. The problem is that "first" is determined by
checking that the Offset of the field in the run is 0, which breaks for
big endian.

|
At the moment,distinct fields for each union member are generated. When
copying a union, we don't know which union member is active, so there's
no benefit from recording the different fields. It can result in
converting tbaa.struct fields to incorrect tbaa nodes when extracting
fields.
PR: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/84370

Without this bail out, we may generate fields with null nodes as tags
are generated by using getTypeInfo which has the same bail out.
PR: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/84386
|
|
At the moment, clang generates what I believe are incorrect !tbaa.struct
fields for named bitfields. At the moment, the base type size is used
for named bifields (e.g. sizeof(int)) instead of the bifield width per
field. This results in overalpping fields in !tbaa.struct metadata.
This causes incorrect results when extracting individual copied fields
from !tbaa.struct as in added in dc85719d5.
This patch fixes that by skipping by combining adjacent bitfields
in fields with correct sizes.

When emitting TBAA information for enums in C code we currently just
treat the data as an 'omnipotent char'. However, with C strict aliasing
this means we fail to optimise certain cases. For example, in the
SPEC2017 xz benchmark there are structs that contain arrays of enums,
and clang pessmistically assumes that accesses to those enums could
alias with other struct members that have a different type.
According to
https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/language/enum
enums should be treated as 'int' types unless explicitly specified (C23)
or if 'int' would not be large enough to hold all the enumerated values.
In the latter case the compiler is free to choose a suitable integer
that would hold all such values.
When compiling C code this patch generates TBAA information for the enum
by using an equivalent integer of the size clang has already chosen for
the enum. I have ignored C++ for now because the rules are more complex.
New test added here:
clang/test/CodeGen/tbaa.c

As nullptr is a legitimate value, change the BaseTypeMetadataCache hash lookup/insertion to use find and
insert rather than the subscript operator.
Also adjust getBaseTypeInfoHelper to do no insertion, but let getBaseTypeInfo do that.
|
|
Hashing the sugared type instead of the canonical type meant that
a simple example like this would always fail under MSVC:
```
static auto l() {}
int main() {
auto a = l;
a();
}
```
`clang --target=x86_64-pc-windows-msvc -fno-exceptions
-fsanitize=function -g -O0 -fuse-ld=lld -o test.exe test.cc`
produces:
```
test.cc:4:3: runtime error: call to function l through pointer to incorrect function type 'void (*)()'

WG14 adopted the _ExtInt feature from Clang for C23, but renamed the
type to be _BitInt. This patch does the vast majority of the work to
rename _ExtInt to _BitInt, which accounts for most of its size. The new
type is exposed in older C modes and all C++ modes as a conforming
extension. However, there are functional changes worth calling out:
* Deprecates _ExtInt with a fix-it to help users migrate to _BitInt.
* Updates the mangling for the type.
* Updates the documentation and adds a release note to warn users what
is going on.
* Adds new diagnostics for use of _BitInt to call out when it's used as
a Clang extension or as a pre-C23 compatibility concern.
* Adds new tests for the new diagnostic behaviors.
I want to call out the ABI break specifically. We do not believe that
this break will cause a significant imposition for early adopters of
the feature, and so this is being done as a full break. If it turns out
there are critical uses where recompilation is not an option for some
reason, we can consider using ABI tags to ease the transition.

Introduction/Motivation:
LLVM-IR supports integers of non-power-of-2 bitwidth, in the iN syntax.
Integers of non-power-of-two aren't particularly interesting or useful
on most hardware, so much so that no language in Clang has been
motivated to expose it before.
However, in the case of FPGA hardware normal integer types where the
full bitwidth isn't used, is extremely wasteful and has severe
performance/space concerns. Because of this, Intel has introduced this
functionality in the High Level Synthesis compiler[0]
under the name "Arbitrary Precision Integer" (ap_int for short). This
has been extremely useful and effective for our users, permitting them
to optimize their storage and operation space on an architecture where
both can be extremely expensive.
We are proposing upstreaming a more palatable version of this to the
community, in the form of this proposal and accompanying patch. We are
proposing the syntax _ExtInt(N). We intend to propose this to the WG14
committee[1], and the underscore-capital seems like the active direction
for a WG14 paper's acceptance. An alternative that Richard Smith
suggested on the initial review was __int(N), however we believe that
is much less acceptable by WG14. We considered _Int, however _Int is
used as an identifier in libstdc++ and there is no good way to fall
back to an identifier (since _Int(5) is indistinguishable from an
unnamed initializer of a template type named _Int).

type sugar.
We previously missed the attribute in a lot of cases in C++, because
there's often other type sugar there (eg, ElaboratedType).
|
|
Unnamed bit-fields should not be represented in the TBAA metadata
because they do not represent storage fields (they only affect layout).
Zero-sized fields should not be represented in the TBAA metadata
because by definition they have no associated storage (so we will never
emit a load or store through them), and they might not appear in
declaration order within the struct layout.
Fixes a verifier failure when emitting a TBAA-enabled load through a
class type containing a zero-sized field.

Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM

This reverts commit r319413. See PR35503.
We can't use "union member" as the access type here like this.
llvm-svn: 319629
|
|
The basic idea behind this patch is that since in strict aliasing
mode all accesses to union members require their outermost
enclosing union objects to be specified explicitly, then for a
couple given accesses to union members of the form
p->a.b.c...
q->x.y.z...
it is known they can only alias if both p and q point to the same
union type and offset ranges of members a.b.c... and x.y.z...
overlap. Note that the actual types of the members do not matter.
Specifically, in this patch we do the following:
* Make unions to be valid TBAA base access types. This enables
generation of TBAA type descriptors for unions.
* Encode union types as structures with a single member of a
special "union member" type. Currently we do not encode
information about sizes of types, but conceptually such union
members are considered to be of the size of the whole union.
* Encode accesses to direct and indirect union members, including
member arrays, as accesses to these special members. All
accesses to members of a union thus get the same offset, which
is the offset of the union they are part of. This means the
existing LLVM TBAA machinery is able to handle such accesses
with no changes.
While this is already an improvement comparing to the current
situation, that is, representing all union accesses as may-alias
ones, there are further changes planned to complete the support
for unions. One of them is storing information about access sizes
so we can distinct accesses to non-overlapping union members,
including accesses to different elements of member arrays.
Another change is encoding type sizes in order to make it
possible to compute offsets within constant-indexed array
elements. These enhancements will be addressed with separate
patches.

The information about access and type sizes is necessary for

CodeGenTBAA::getBaseTypeInfo() to generate metadata in the new
format under the -new-struct-path-tbaa command-line option. For
now, this new information remains unused.
