It assumed the maximum alignment was equal to sizeof(void*), which is
definitely not the case. So this only worked more or less by accident
previously.
It now uses the alignment as specified by the frontend, or else
`unsafe.Alignof(complex128)` which is typically the maximum alignment of
a given platform (though this shouldn't really happen in practice: the
optimizer should keep the 'align' attribute in place).

Support for `-panic=trap` was previously a pass in the optimization
pipeline. This change moves it to the compiler and runtime, which in my
opinion is a much better place.
As a side effect, it also fixes
https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/issues/4161 by trapping inside
runtime.runtimePanicAt and not just runtime.runtimePanic.
This change also adds a test for the list of imported functions. This is
a more generic test where it's easy to add more tests for WebAssembly
file properties, such as exported functions.

This is a big change: apart from removing LLVM 14 it also removes typed
pointer support (which was only fully supported in LLVM up to version
14). This removes about 200 lines of code, but more importantly removes
a ton of special cases for LLVM 14.

Previously, this pass would convert any read-only use of a
runtime.stringToBytes call to use the original string buffer instead.
This is incorrect: if there are any writes to the resulting buffer, none
of the slice buffer pointers can be converted to use the original
read-only string buffer.
This commit fixes that bug and adds a test to prove the new (correct)
behavior.

Browsers previously didn't support the WebAssembly i64 type, so we had
to work around that limitation by converting the LLVM i64 type to
something else. Some people used a pair of i32 values, but we used a
pointer to a stack allocated i64.
Now however, all major browsers and Node.js do support WebAssembly
BigInt integration so that i64 values can be passed back and forth
between WebAssembly and JavaScript easily. Therefore, I think the time
has come to drop support for this workaround.
For more information: https://v8.dev/features/wasm-bigint (note that
TinyGo has used a slightly different way of passing i64 values between
JS and Wasm).

This gives a small improvement now, and is needed to be able to use the
Heap2Stack transform that's available in the Attributor pass. This
Heap2Stack transform could replace our custom OptimizeAllocs pass.
Most of the changes are just IR that changed, the actual change is
relatively small.
To give an example of why this is useful, here is the code size before
this change:
$ tinygo build -o test -size=short ./testdata/stdlib.go
code data bss | flash ram
95620 1812 968 | 97432 2780
$ tinygo build -o test -size=short ./testdata/stdlib.go
code data bss | flash ram
95380 1812 968 | 97192 2780
That's a 0.25% reduction. Not a whole lot, but nice for such a small
patch.

Also, rename most of the SSA values while we're at it.

This has two benefits:
1. It attributes these bytes to the internal/task package (in
-size=full), instead of (unknown).
2. It makes it possible to print the stack sizes variable in GDB.
This is what it might look like in GDB:
(gdb) p 'internal/task.stackSizes'
$13 = {344, 120, 80, 2048, 360, 112, 80, 120, 2048, 2048}

All targets now support ThinLTO so let's remove the old unused code.
|
|
This is a big commit that changes the way runtime type information is stored in
the binary. Instead of compressing it and storing it in a number of sidetables,
it is stored similar to how the Go compiler toolchain stores it (but still more
compactly).
This has a number of advantages:
* It is much easier to add new features to reflect support. They can simply
be added to these structs without requiring massive changes (especially in
the reflect lowering pass).
* It removes the reflect lowering pass, which was a large amount of hard to
understand and debug code.
* The reflect lowering pass also required merging all LLVM IR into one
module, which is terrible for performance especially when compiling large
amounts of code. See issue 2870 for details.
* It is (probably!) easier to reason about for the compiler.
The downside is that it increases code size a bit, especially when reflect is
involved. I hope to fix some of that in later patches.

Previously, the MakeGCStackSlots pass would attempt to pop the stack chain before a tail call.
This resulted in use-after-free bugs when the tail call allocated memory and used a value allocated by its caller.
Instead of trying to move the stack chain pop, remove the tail flag from the call.
|
|
Precise globals require a whole program optimization pass that is hard
to support when building packages separately. This patch removes support
for these globals by converting the last use (Linux) to use
linker-defined symbols instead.
For details, see: https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/issues/2870

ThinLTO optimizes across LLVM modules at link time. This means that
optimizations (such as inlining and const-propagation) are possible
between C and Go. This makes this change especially useful for CGo, but
not just for CGo. By doing some optimizations at link time, the linker
can discard some unused functions and this leads to a size reduction on
average. It does increase code size in some cases, but that's true for
most optimizations.
I've excluded a number of targets for now (wasm, avr, xtensa, windows,
macos). They can probably be supported with some more work, but that
should be done in separate PRs.
Overall, this change results in an average 3.24% size reduction over all
the tinygo.org/x/drivers smoke tests.
TODO: this commit runs part of the pass pipeline twice. We should set
the PrepareForThinLTO flag in the PassManagerBuilder for even further
reduced code size (0.7%) and improved compilation speed.

This removes the parentHandle argument from the internal calling convention.
It was formerly used to implment coroutines.
Now that coroutines have been removed, it is no longer necessary.
|
|
The switched func lowering was mainly necessary for coroutines.
With coroutines removed, this is no longer necessary.
|
|
|
|
When I wrote the code originally, I didn't know about SetAlignment so I
hacked a way around it by allocating [...]uintptr types. However, this
allocates a few too many bytes in some cases.
This commit changes this to only allocate the space that we actually
need.
The code size effect is mixed, but generally positive. The combined
average is reduced by 0.27% with more programs being reduced in size
than are increasing in size.

Originally based on a PR by @QuLogic, but extended a lot to get all
tests to pass.

Instead of doing everything in the interrupt lowering pass, generate
some more code in gen-device to declare interrupt handler functions and
do some work in the compiler so that interrupt lowering becomes a lot
simpler.
This has several benefits:
- Overall code is smaller, in particular the interrupt lowering pass.
- The code should be a bit less "magical" and instead a bit easier to
read. In particular, instead of having a magic
runtime.callInterruptHandler (that is fully written by the interrupt
lowering pass), the runtime calls a generated function like
device/sifive.InterruptHandler where this switch already exists in
code.
- Debug information is improved. This can be helpful during actual
debugging but is also useful for other uses of DWARF debug
information.
For an example on debug information improvement, this is what a
backtrace might look like before this commit:
Breakpoint 1, 0x00000b46 in UART0_IRQHandler ()
(gdb) bt
#0 0x00000b46 in UART0_IRQHandler ()
#1 <signal handler called>
[..etc]
Notice that the debugger doesn't see the source code location where it
has stopped.
After this commit, breaking at the same line might look like this:
Breakpoint 1, (*machine.UART).handleInterrupt (arg1=..., uart=<optimized out>) at /home/ayke/src/github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/src/machine/machine_nrf.go:200
200 uart.Receive(byte(nrf.UART0.RXD.Get()))
(gdb) bt
#0 (*machine.UART).handleInterrupt (arg1=..., uart=<optimized out>) at /home/ayke/src/github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/src/machine/machine_nrf.go:200
#1 UART0_IRQHandler () at /home/ayke/src/github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/src/device/nrf/nrf51.go:176
#2 <signal handler called>
[..etc]
By now, the debugger sees an actual source location for UART0_IRQHandler
(in the generated file) and an inlined function.

This layout parameter is currently always nil and ignored, but will
eventually contain a pointer to a memory layout.
This commit also adds module verification to the transform tests, as I
found out that it didn't (and therefore didn't initially catch all
bugs).
|
|
This commit simplifies the IR a little bit: instead of calling
pseudo-functions runtime.interfaceImplements and
runtime.interfaceMethod, real declared functions are being called that
are then defined in the interface lowering pass. This should simplify
the interaction between various transformation passes. It also reduces
the number of lines of code, which is generally a good thing.

stack allocations
This change fixes a bug in which `alloca` memory lifetimes would not extend past the suspend of an asynchronous tail call.
This would typically manifest as memory corruption, and could happen with or without normal suspending calls within the function.
|
|
Bug 1790 ("musttail call must precede a ret with an optional bitcast")
is caused by the GC stack slot pass inserting a store instruction
between a musttail call and a return instruction. This is not allowed in
LLVM IR.
One solution would be to remove the musttail. That would probably work,
but 1) the go-llvm API doesn't support this and 2) this might have
unforeseen consequences. What I've done in this commit is to move the
store instruction to a position earlier in the basic block, just after
the last access to the GC stack slot alloca.
Thanks to @fgsch for a very small repro, which I've used as a regression
test.

This commit includes two changes:
* It makes unexported interface methods package-private, so that it's
not possible to type-assert on an unexported method in a different
package.
* It makes the globals used to identify interface methods defined
globals, so that they can (eventually) be left in the program for an
eventual non-LTO build mode.

Closure variables are allocated in a parent function and are thus never
nil. Don't do a nil check before reading or modifying the value.
This commit results in a slight reduction in code size in some test
cases: calls.go, channel.go, goroutines.go, json.go, sort.go -
presumably wherever closures are used.
|
|
These two passes are related, but can definitely work independently.
Which is what this change does: it splits the two passes. This should
make it easier to change these two new passes in the future.
This change now also enables slightly better testing by testing these
two passes independently. In particular, the reflect lowering pass got
some actual tests: it was barely unit-tested before.
I have verified that this doesn't really change code size, at least not
on the microbit target. Two tests do change, but in a very minor way
(and in opposite direction).

In many cases, position information is not stored in Go SSA instructions
because they don't exit directly in the source code. This includes
implicit type conversions, implicit returns at the end of a function,
the creation of a (hidden) slice when calling a variadic function, and
many other cases. I'm not sure where this information is supposed to
come from, but this patch takes the value (usually) from the value the
instruction refers to. This seems to work well for these implicit
conversions.
I've also added a few extra tests to the heap-to-stack transform pass,
of which one requires this improved position information.
|
|
This allows better escape analysis even without being able to see the
entire program. This makes the stack allocation test case more complete
but probably won't have much of an effect outside of that (as the
compiler is able to infer these attributes in the whole-program
functionattrs pass).
|
|
This flag, if set, is a regexp for function names. If there are heap
allocations in the matching function names, these heap allocations will
be printed with an explanation why the heap allocation exists (and why
the object can't be stack allocated).
|
|
There is no good reason for func values to refer to interface type
codes. The only thing they need is a stable identifier for function
signatures, which is easily created as a new kind of globals. Decoupling
makes it easier to change interface related code.
|
|
The LLVM CoroFrame pass appears to be tripping over this zero-sized
alloca. Therefore, do what the runtime would do: return a pointer to
runtime.zeroSizedAlloc. Or just don't deal with this case. But don't
emit a zero sized alloca to avoid this LLVM bug.
More information: https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49916

Sometimes, LLVM may rename named structs when merging modules.
Therefore, we can't rely on typecodeID structs to retain their struct
names.
This commit changes the interface lowering pass to not rely on these
names. The interp package does however still rely on this name, but I
hope to fix that in the future.
|
|
This commit adds a new transform that converts reflect Implements()
calls to runtime.interfaceImplements. At the moment, the Implements()
method is not yet implemented (how ironic) but if the value passed to
Implements is known at compile time the method call can be optimized to
runtime.interfaceImplements to make it a regular interface assert.
This commit is the last change necessary to add basic support for the
encoding/json package. The json package is certainly not yet fully
supported, but some trivial objects can be converted to JSON.
|
|
Previously there was code to avoid impossible type asserts but it wasn't
great and in fact was too aggressive when combined with reflection.
This commit improves this by checking all types that exist in the
program that may appear in an interface (even struct fields and the
like) but without creating runtime.typecodeID objects with the type
assert. This has two advantages:
* As mentioned, it optimizes impossible type asserts away.
* It allows methods on types that were only asserted on (in
runtime.typeAssert) but never used in an interface to be optimized
away using GlobalDCE. This may have a cascading effect so that other
parts of the code can be further optimized.
This sometimes massively improves code size and mostly negates the code
size regression of the previous commit.

This distinction was useful before when reflect wasn't properly
supported. Back then it made sense to only include method sets that were
actually used in an interface. But now that it is possible to get to
other values (for example, by extracting fields from structs) and it is
possible to turn them back into interfaces, it is necessary to preserve
all method sets that can possibly be used in the program in a type
assert, interface assert or interface method call.
In the future, this logic will need to be revisited again when
reflect.New or reflect.Zero gets implemented.
Code size increases a bit in some cases, but usually in a very limited
way (except for one outlier in the drivers smoke tests). The next commit
will improve the situation significantly.
