Add infrastructure to pypeline that allows containers to be notified
when they are being used last, this allows two things:
* `Pipe`s eagerly clearing those containers once they are done reading
their contents
* `ScheduledTask`s clearing those out at the end of their execution in
case the pipe did not do it
This overall should improve memory usage as container no longer take up
memory if they are no longer used as part of a `Schedule`.
Inline the body of `PipelineNode.run` into `ScheduledTask.run`, making
`PipelineNode` a pure data structure. This also allows eliding all the
arguments since all of them as properties of `ScheduledTask`.
In equivalence with `LLVMFunctionMixin`, add a mixin that allows
writing a pipe that instead of defining the `runOnFunction` method it
defines the `runOnCliftFunction` which receives both the
`module::Function` and the `FunctionOp`.
The `Head` election now works in a bottom-up fashion (child regions are
processed before the parent ones), and ensures that the `Head` election
process is coherent across multiple nested regions.
This means that:
1) The late entries are coherent between the nested regions. If a node
is selected as a late entry for a region, the parent region must
follow this decision too.
2) If a node which is a `Head` candidate for a parent region, is
selected as the `Head` for a child region, the same choice must be
performed for the parent region too.
Add an enum to explicitly specify the `TaskArgumentAccess` of a given
`Pipe`. This is needed because in some cases it's required to manually
specify the `READ` or `WRITE` access.
Move the epoch inside the storage_provider, this allows us to make the
storage_provider_factory to return an async context manager.
This way we can simplify the locking for the daemon, but forces the
CLI project commands to deal with async code.
Now pype has an `autocomplete` command usable to enable autocompletion
and revng2 now is based on `pype`, modifying its defalults and
injecting new commands.
Now the model has a mime_type that we expect to return to the UI, and
model_name so the name of the model on disk can be impl-specific.
Moreover, now Model and Container use the same logic to detect if
a mimetype is textual.
This commit drops libptc in favor of its new form libtcg.
It brings several improvements, among which:
* The QEMU version we work on has been upgraded.
* CPUStateAccessAnalysis has been reimplemented in a way that makes it
easier to debug and solves some limitations (e.g., tracking leaking
pointers).
* Identification of pieces of the CPU state that are read by each helper
and fixing access to the CPU state is now performed at build-time.
* We no longer mmap the code we need to translate, dropping all the
issues related to code that needed to be mapped where something is
already present.
* We now have two distinct flavors of helper modules: the full one and
the "slim" one. The latter contains the definition only of functions
we intend to inline. It is used in most of the pipeline, a good thing
since we spend less time optimizing code we don't really care about.
The full module is only used on the re-compilation branch of the
pipeline.
* We no longer split the `cpu_loop` function.
* We change MetaAddress to rely on architectures from `model::` as
opposed to the LLVM ones.
* We no longer attach debug info to LLVM IR containing the original
assembly.
* We now verify that the lifted code only contains code we expect.
