`&Freeze` parameters are not only `readonly` within the function,
but any captures of the pointer can also only be used for reads.
This can now be encoded using the `captures(address, read_provenance)`
attribute.
Set the dead_on_return attribute (added in LLVM 21) for arguments
that are passed indirectly, but not byval.
This indicates that the value of the argument on return does not
matter, enabling additional dead store elimination.
Replace ad-hoc ABI "adjustments" with an `AbiMap` to `CanonAbi`
Our `conv_from_spec_abi`, `adjust_abi`, and `is_abi_supported` combine to give us a very confusing way of reasoning about what _actual_ calling convention we want to lower our code to and whether we want to compile the resulting code at all. Instead of leaving this code as a miniature adventure game in which someone tries to combine stateful mutations into a Rube Goldberg machine that will let them escape the maze and arrive at the promised land of codegen, we let `AbiMap` devour this complexity. Once you have an `AbiMap`, you can answer which `ExternAbi`s will lower to what `CanonAbi`s (and whether they will lower at all).
Removed:
- `conv_from_spec_abi` replaced by `AbiMap::canonize_abi`
- `adjust_abi` replaced by same
- `Conv::PreserveAll` as unused
- `Conv::Cold` as unused
- `enum Conv` replaced by `enum CanonAbi`
target-spec.json changes:
- If you have a target-spec.json then now your "entry-abi" key will be specified in terms of one of the `"{abi}"` strings Rust recognizes, e.g.
```json
"entry-abi": "C",
"entry-abi": "win64",
"entry-abi": "aapcs",
```
cg_llvm: Reduce visibility of some items outside the `llvm` module
Next piece of #135502
This reduces the visibility of items (other than those in the `llvm` module) so that dead code analysis will correctly identify unused items.
It is speculated that these two can be conceptually merged, and it can
start by ripping out rustc's notion of the PtxKernel call convention.
Leave the ExternAbi for now, but the nvptx target now should see it as
just a different way to spell Conv::GpuKernel.
Update bootstrap compiler and rustfmt
The rustfmt version we previously used formats things differently from what the latest nightly rustfmt does. This causes issues for subtrees that get formatted both in-tree and in their own repo. Updating the rustfmt used in-tree solves those issues. Also bumped the bootstrap compiler as the stage0 update command always updates both at the same
time.
The amdgpu-kernel calling convention was reverted in commit
f6b21e90d1 due to inactivity in the amdgpu
target.
Introduce a `gpu-kernel` calling convention that translates to
`ptx_kernel` or `amdgpu_kernel`, depending on the target that rust
compiles for.
The initial naming of "Abi" was an awful mistake, conveying wrong ideas
about how psABIs worked and even more about what the enum meant.
It was only meant to represent the way the value would be described to
a codegen backend as it was lowered to that intermediate representation.
It was never meant to mean anything about the actual psABI handling!
The conflation is because LLVM typically will associate a certain form
with a certain ABI, but even that does not hold when the special cases
that actually exist arise, plus the IR annotations that modify the ABI.
Reframe `rustc_abi::Abi` as the `BackendRepr` of the type, and rename
`BackendRepr::Aggregate` as `BackendRepr::Memory`. Unfortunately, due to
the persistent misunderstandings, this too is now incorrect:
- Scattered ABI-relevant code is entangled with BackendRepr
- We do not always pre-compute a correct BackendRepr that reflects how
we "actually" want this value to be handled, so we leave the backend
interface to also inject various special-cases here
- In some cases `BackendRepr::Memory` is a "real" aggregate, but in
others it is in fact using memory, and in some cases it is a scalar!
Our rustc-to-backend lowering code handles this sort of thing right now.
That will eventually be addressed by lifting duplicated lowering code
to either rustc_codegen_ssa or rustc_target as appropriate.
Update compiler_builtins to 0.1.114
The `weak-intrinsics` feature was removed from compiler_builtins in https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-builtins/pull/598, so dropped the `compiler-builtins-weak-intrinsics` feature from alloc/std/sysroot.
In https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-builtins/pull/593, some builtins for f16/f128 were added. These don't work for all compiler backends, so add a `compiler-builtins-no-f16-f128` feature and disable it for cranelift and gcc.
Set writable and dead_on_unwind attributes for sret arguments
Set the `writable` and `dead_on_unwind` attributes for `sret` arguments. This allows call slot optimization to remove more memcpy's.
See https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#parameter-attributes for the specification of these attributes. In short, the statement we're making here is that:
* The return slot is writable.
* The return slot will not be read if the function unwinds.
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/90595.
Stop using LLVM struct types for alloca
The alloca type has no semantic meaning, only the size (and alignment, but we specify it explicitly) matter. Using `[N x i8]` is a more direct way to specify that we want `N` bytes, and avoids relying on LLVM's struct layout. It is likely that a future LLVM version will change to an untyped alloca representation.
Split out from #121577.
r? `@ghost`
The actual ABI implication here is that in some cases the values
are required to be "consecutive", i.e. must either all be passed
in registers or all on stack (without padding).
Adjust the code to either use Uniform::new() or Uniform::consecutive()
depending on which behavior is needed.
Then, when lowering this in LLVM, skip the [1 x i128] to i128
simplification if is_consecutive is set. i128 is the only case
I'm aware of where this is problematic right now. If we find
other cases, we can extend this (either based on target information
or possibly just by not simplifying for is_consecutive entirely).
When passing a 16 (or higher) aligned struct by value on ppc64le,
it needs to be passed as an array of `i128` rather than an array
of `i64`. This will force the use of an even starting register.
For the case of a 16 byte struct with alignment 16 it is important
that `[1 x i128]` is used instead of `i128` -- apparently, the
latter will get treated similarly to `[2 x i64]`, not exhibiting
the correct ABI. Add a `force_array` flag to `Uniform` to support
this.
The relevant clang code can be found here:
fe2119a7b0/clang/lib/CodeGen/Targets/PPC.cpp (L878-L884)fe2119a7b0/clang/lib/CodeGen/Targets/PPC.cpp (L780-L784)
I think the corresponding psABI wording is this:
> Fixed size aggregates and unions passed by value are mapped to as
> many doublewords of the parameter save area as the value uses in
> memory. Aggregrates and unions are aligned according to their
> alignment requirements. This may result in doublewords being
> skipped for alignment.
In particular the last sentence.
