[WinEHPrepare] Add rudimentary support for the new EH instructions
ClosedPublic

Authored by majnemer on Aug 4 2015, 1:23 AM.

Details

Summary

This adds somewhat basic preparation functionality including:

  • Formation of funclets via coloring basic blocks.
  • Cloning of polychromatic blocks to ensure that funclets have unique program counters.
  • Demotion of values used between different funclets.
  • Some amount of cleanup once we have removed predecessors from basic blocks.
  • Verification that we are left with a CFG that makes some amount of sense.

N.B. Arguments and numbering still need to be done.

The demotion logic seems pretty heinous, but I hear improvements are on the way, so I'm not going to dig too much into it.

I expect many cleanup funclets will be one BB. SmallVector<1>?

2926–2927 ↗(On Diff #31338)

pop_back_val?

I think you can remove the IsCatch and IsCleanup predicates and stop at either kind of ret. If the CFG gets mangled, this will stop us from going off into the weeds earlier.

Do you want these in a release build? #ifndef NDEBUG?
