[CodeGen] Emit a CoreFoundation link guard when @available is used
ClosedPublic

Authored by arphaman on Mar 15 2017, 5:12 AM.

Details

Summary

After r297760, __isOSVersionAtLeast in compiler-rt loads the CoreFoundation symbols at runtime. This means that @available will always fail when used in a binary without a linked CoreFoundation.

This patch forces Clang to emit a reference to a CoreFoundation symbol when @available is used to ensure that linking will fail when CoreFoundation isn't linked with the build product.

Is this a public weak symbol? Make it hidden, please.

Did you consider just adding "-framework CoreFoundation" to the module link options?

I'm not familiar with module link options, I'll look into them.

The guard function is now hidden. I also adopted linker options as John suggested.

Reverse these checks, please; IsOSVersionAtLeastFn is much cheaper to check and will predominantly be null.

Can you explain why compiler-rt has to load the symbol at runtime? Is this just some compiler-rt testing thing? Because it seems like a shame to pay a code-size cost — even a negligible one — for something like that.

Because compiler-rt is linked into some internal projects that use the -all_load flag, so the linker loads __isOSVersionAtLeast that references the CoreFoundation symbols even when it's not used in code.

Reverse the early exit checks.
