libctf: add linking of the variable section
The compiler describes the name and type of all file-scope variables in this section. Merging it at link time requires using the type mapping added in the previous commit to determine the appropriate type for the variable in the output, given its type in the input: we check the shared container first, and if the type doesn't exist there, it must be a conflicted type in the per-CU child, and the variable should go there too. We also put the variable in the per-CU child if a variable with the same name but a different type already exists in the parent: we ignore any such conflict in the child because CTF cannot represent such things, nor can they happen unless a third-party linking program has overridden the mapping of CU to CTF archive member name (using machinery added in a later commit). v3: rewritten using an algorithm that actually works in the case of conflicting names. Some code motion from the next commit. Set the per-CU parent name. v4: check for strdup failure. v5: fix tabdamage. include/ * ctf-api.h (ECTF_INTERNAL): New. libctf/ * ctf-link.c (ctf_create_per_cu): New, refactored out of... (ctf_link_one_type): ... here, with parent-name setting added. (check_variable): New. (ctf_link_one_variable): Likewise. (ctf_link_one_input_archive_member): Call it. * ctf-error.c (_ctf_errlist): Updated with new errors. |

libctf: map from old to corresponding newly-added types in ctf_add_type
This lets you call ctf_type_mapping (dest_fp, src_fp, src_type_id) and get told what type ID the corresponding type has in the target ctf_file_t. This works even if it was added by a recursive call, and because it is stored in the target ctf_file_t it works even if we had to add one type to multiple ctf_file_t's as part of conflicting type handling. We empty out this mapping after every archive is linked: because it maps input to output fps, and we only visit each input fp once, its contents are rendered entirely useless every time the source fp changes. v3: add several missing mapping additions. Add ctf_dynhash_empty, and empty after every input archive. v5: fix tabdamage. libctf/ * ctf-impl.h (ctf_file_t): New field ctf_link_type_mapping. (struct ctf_link_type_mapping_key): New.

libctf: add the ctf_link machinery
This is the start of work on the core of the linking mechanism for CTF sections. This commit handles the type and string sections. The linker calls these functions in sequence: ctf_link_add_ctf: to add each CTF section in the input in turn to a newly-created ctf_file_t (which will appear in the output, and which itself will become the shared parent that contains types that all TUs have in common (in all link modes) and all types that do not have conflicting definitions between types (by default). Input files that are themselves products of ld -r are supported, though this is not heavily tested yet. ctf_link: called once all input files are added to merge the types in all the input containers into the output container, eliminating duplicates. ctf_link_add_strtab: called once the ELF string table is finalized and all its offsets are known, this calls a callback provided by the linker which returns the string content and offset of every string in the ELF strtab in turn: all these strings which appear in the input CTF strtab are eliminated from it in favour of the ELF strtab: equally, any strings that only appear in the input strtab will reappear in the internal CTF strtab of the output. ctf_link_shuffle_syms (not yet implemented): called once the ELF symtab is finalized, this calls a callback provided by the linker which returns information on every symbol in turn as a ctf_link_sym_t. This is then used to shuffle the function info and data object sections in the CTF section into symbol table order, eliminating the index sections which map those sections to symbol names before that point. Currently just returns ECTF_NOTYET. ctf_link_write: Returns a buffer containing either a serialized ctf_file_t (if there are no types with conflicting definitions in the object files in the link) or a ctf_archive_t containing a large ctf_file_t (the common types) and a bunch of small ones named after individual CUs in which conflicting types are found (containing the conflicting types, and all types that reference them). A threshold size above which compression takes place is passed as one parameter. (Currently, only gzip compression is supported, but I hope to add lzma as well.) Lifetime rules for this are simple: don't close the input CTF files until you've called ctf_link for the last time. We do not assume that symbols or strings passed in by the callback outlast the call to ctf_link_add_strtab or ctf_link_shuffle_syms. Right now, the duplicate elimination mechanism is the one already present as part of the ctf_add_type function, and is not particularly good: it misses numerous actual duplicates, and the conflicting-types detection hardly ever reports that types conflict, even when they do (one of them just tends to get silently dropped): it is also very slow. This will all be fixed in the next few weeks, but the fix hardly touches any of this code, and the linker does work without it, just not as well as it otherwise might. (And when no CTF section is present, there is no effect on performance, of course. So only people using a trunk GCC with not-yet-committed patches will even notice. By the time it gets upstream, things should be better.) v3: Fix error handling. v4: check for strdup failure. v5: fix tabdamage. include/ * ctf-api.h (struct ctf_link_sym): New, a symbol in flight to the libctf linking machinery. (CTF_LINK_SHARE_UNCONFLICTED): New. (CTF_LINK_SHARE_DUPLICATED): New. (ECTF_LINKADDEDLATE): New, replacing ECTF_UNUSED. (ECTF_NOTYET): New, a 'not yet implemented' message. (ctf_link_add_ctf): New, add an input file's CTF to the link. (ctf_link): New, merge the type and string sections. (ctf_link_strtab_string_f): New, callback for feeding strtab info. (ctf_link_iter_symbol_f): New, callback for feeding symtab info. (ctf_link_add_strtab): New, tell the CTF linker about the ELF strtab's strings. (ctf_link_shuffle_syms): New, ask the CTF linker to shuffle its symbols into symtab order. (ctf_link_write): New, ask the CTF linker to write the CTF out. libctf/ * ctf-link.c: New file, linking of the string and type sections. * Makefile.am (libctf_a_SOURCES): Add it. * Makefile.in: Regenerate. * ctf-impl.h (ctf_file_t): New fields ctf_link_inputs, ctf_link_outputs. * ctf-create.c (ctf_update): Update accordingly. * ctf-open.c (ctf_file_close): Likewise. * ctf-error.c (_ctf_errlist): Updated with new errors. |
