This commit drops support for running StackAnalysis without ABI
analysis. This has been broken for quite some time and a source of slow
downs in (badly) crafted optimization pipelines.
We used to accidentaly call `resetCacheMustHit` on the just popped
element of the set, resulting in an out-of-bounds access within the
container.
This bug has been spotted thanks to AddressSanitizer.
* Drop unused argument names from function prototypes
* Make `static` some methods
* Disable some copy constructors
* Fix casing of Doxygen `\file` directives
* Add some casts to make the compiler happy
* Initialize `hasRelocationAddend` for AArch64
* Use references in range-for where possible
* Drop default for `switch` statements covering all the entries of an `enum`
* Make some global variables `static`
* Drop dead functions
Any stack pointer value greater than or equal to the original one used
to be OK for stack analysis to recognize an instruction as a
return. This commit changes this policy by collecting the value of the
stack pointer on all the return points and, at the end, elect a final
stack pointer value. All non-compliant returns are marked a
`BranchType::BrokenReturn`. The function is now considered fake only if
all the return instructions agree on a specific value of the stack
pointer, and it's lower than the original one.
* Drop `BranchType::IndirectTail`.
* `s/BranchType::FunctionSummary/BranchType::RegularFunction/`.
Register marked as explicitly callee saved in a function used to be
marked as No both for the current function and all of its function
calls. However, the latter action is not accurate.
In certain locations we were using a `std::vector`, taking a reference
to it, adding elements and ending up in a reference invalidation issue.
This commit replaces those `std::vectors` with `std::deque` which do not
present this issue.
This commit introduces the `enforce-abi` pass, which consumes the
information provided by the ABI analysis and enforces them in the
isolated functions adding actual arguments.
This commit also rewrites the logic of `ResultsPool::finalize` and
changes the semantic of `Yes` statements on arguments to `YesOrDead`.
The stack analysis identifies CSV as `CPU+x` where `x` is an index that
uniquely identifies a CSV. We used to compute this index multiple times,
going through the list of global variables.
After we switched from metadata to global variables for strings
representing disassembled instructions, such process became very slow to
the point of being a bottleneck due to the large amount of global
variables.
This commit precomputes, once and for all, the unique identifier of each
CSV and saves it in a `std::set`.
Updating to LLVM 7 mainly involved the following steps:
* Upgrade APIs for folding ConstantExpr.
* Upgrade APIs for GraphTraits.
* Upgrade APIs for DominatorTreeBase.
* Upgrade APIs for BinaryFormat to parse ELFs.
* Fix the LLVM Linker to properly link the QEMU helpers.
* Disable the new optnone attribute even with optimization -O0. This is
necessary to allow SROA to do its job properly.
* Upgrade APIs to delete Instructions.
* Properly cleaning up orphaned metadata still referring to Instructions
that have been destroyed. Recent versions of LLVM are more strict in
this respect, and will assert when compiled in debug.
* Avoid using LLVM `getGlobalContext` which has been removed from newer
versions of LLVM.
* Upgrade tests to use the new APIs.
* Upgrade APIs for instruction iterators and reverse iterators.
This commit introduces `revng_log`, a macro analagous to `revng_assert`,
which basically allows to have the benefit of the `Logger` class without
having to compute the expression to log if the logger is disabled.
This commit also completely dismisses the `DBG` macro, converting all
the old code to `Logger` + `revng_log`.
This commit moves around most files. The new directory structure is as
follows:
* `lib/$LIBRARY/`: contains a library, i.e., a set of `.cpp` files used
by multiple libraries/tools.
* `include/revng/$LIBRARY/`: contains the public headers associated to
the library in `lib/$LIBRARY/`.
* `tools/$TOOL/`: directory where all the `.cpp` files (and private
headers) for a tool reside. Currently we have two tools: `revamb` and
`revamb-dump`.
On top of this, all file names are now in camel case.
