[WebAssembly] COMDAT: core LLVM support

[ncw]

Summary

This adds COMDAT support to the LLVM frontend and Wasm object-file support.

For spec, see https://github.com/WebAssembly/tool-conventions/pull/31

For corresponding LLD change, see https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35533, and D40845

Thanks for doing this. Looks like a good direction!

Why a new struct here but not for Function and Segment?

If we decide a new struct is needed, we have tended to prefer composition over inheritance for this kind of thing.

222

Give that we already have symbol and segment info, and that functions and globals are both symbols, would it make sense to add the COMDAT to the existing segment / symbol info? I'm don't feel strongly about this, just wondering what you think?

lib/MC/WasmObjectWriter.cpp

147

Should this maybe go in BinaryFormat/Wasm.h since its part of the binary format. Then the reader could use it too?

And maybe another struct type which is a Name + a vector of WasmComdatEntry would be useful to represent a whole COMDAT declaration?

lib/Object/WasmObjectFile.cpp

414

Read into a WasmComdatEntry maybe?

[ncw]

include/llvm/BinaryFormat/Wasm.h

I knew this would come up! It's a hack/workaround. I would have preferred to add the member to WasmGlobal, but WasmGlobal is used inside a union (in WasmImport) and StringRef is non-POD so can't go in a union.

I'll fix it up one way or another, WasmGlobalDecl is a (small) bodge just to get it working. Possible solutions: use a Variant instead of a union in WasmImport; or, review the hierarchy of types and come up with a cleaner representation of the Wasm data. (I just need an hour to draw some diagrams and read the existing code to understand where the Comdat field belongs.)

222

I mainly did it this way for size. C++ function names can be hundreds of characters long, so you don't want to use the name very often in the object file.

ELF in fact does something very sneaky, and in the COMDAT group directly references the symbol name in the symbol table, for ultimate compactness.

If we put the long (string) COMDAT identifier next to each segment/symbol that would be quite a bit of bloat. We could have a list of COMDAT names separately, and then in the symbol data have an integer index into the COMDAT list, but I'm not sure that's any tidier than this approach.

lib/MC/WasmObjectWriter.cpp

147

Good idea.

[ncw]

OK, I've cleaned this up, and I think it's ready to go.

• Firstly, note that this can be merged before LLD gains COMDAT support (ie - this doesn't need corresponding changes in LLD to keep working)
• I've made a matching PR in the tool-conventions repo, https://github.com/WebAssembly/tool-conventions/pull/31
• Added test coverage for each bit

Now, the contentious bit - is it actually the right design to be using ELF-style COMDAT?

Well, I think it _maybe_ is, and it's better than nothing. I think we basically need to just keep on improving LLD, and as we go we'll add more flags and bits and pieces as needed. LLD linking is a bit different to x86 linking, certainly when we start doing more clever dead code removal, and I don't want to anticipate that too much.

I think there's value in merging a simple implementation soon, and improving it.

Anything more fancy than the COMDAT support I've done here, would require a correspondingly more fancy/complicated initial review on the LLD side.

[ncw]

Update - added "flags" field and removed explicit Comdat for globals, following Dan's comments on the GitHub PR.

lib/MC/WasmObjectWriter.cpp

I've decided to keep it this way, after having a fiddle to see what it would look like.

Firstly, I'm just storing the COMDAT information in the same way as existing linking data. We don't have a struct for the "names" custom section, and when we read them in, we attach the names directly to the objects.

I actually like the way it's represented. Conceptually, the COMDAT name *is* attached to the function/data-segment. The linking section is just a way to attach extra information to the standard Wasm sections, and I think it makes sense to model it that way.

Based on the discussion in the bug (https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35533) it sounds like we need to take a look at SHF_LINK_ORDER and how that works. It sounds like its different to the "group" concept. But if we do decide groups are the way to go this change lgtm.

[ncw]

Changes:

• Rebased
• Added yaml2obj support to match obj2yaml, tweaked the YAML display for neatness

I've added a looong comment to that bug. SHF_LINK_ORDER really is very very similar to "Comdat groups" - the only differences are 1) ELF historical encoding stuff, and 2) SHF_LINK_ORDER creates "anonymous" linker groupings rather than named Comdat groups.

I basically can't see what all the fuss is about! Comdat "groupings" are what we want, and all the alternatives we're discussing provide the same semantic. It's just arguing about the name and the details? Maybe if you've been working on this for a while though the details seem bigger.

I can't see a major functional difference between what I've implemented here, and what SHF_LINK_ORDER would provide. I might be missing something though....

I'd rather expose an ArrayRef here (I think you can use a local function-local set() to detect duplicate entries while parsing). For consistency and so that comdats appear in order.

lib/Object/WasmObjectFile.cpp

439

while (ComdatCount--)?

450

while (EntryCount--)

469

We now have isValidFunctionIndex(Index) for this.

lib/ObjectYAML/WasmYAML.cpp

65

std::map funny to me here. This this its because I worry about iteration order being consistent. I'd want the comdats to be displayed in the order they appear in the input file, not alphabetically.

How about std::vector<Comdat> where Comdat is a struct with a name + entries?

[ncw]

Updated:

• Responded to Sam's comments
• Fixed a minor issue with the function indices
• Fixed a bug in my addition to yaml2wasm

include/llvm/Object/Wasm.h

Good point, done.

lib/ObjectYAML/WasmYAML.cpp

OK, for YAML it's using a vector now. That makes sense, thanks.

[sunfish]

I'm behind on some of the discussions on this topic at the moment, but overall, this looks like it's headed in a good direction, so I'm in favor of this patch.

[sbc100]

Would you mind re-basing this, and then I'll land it.

[ncw]

Thanks!

Rebased.

NB. I haven't yet re-run the tests, this is an optimistic update - it takes a looong time to compile everything, and after a rebase pretty much everything needs to recompile. Just building the tests now.

[ncw]

MC tests pass, but I've just noticed I missed one in CodeGen/WebAssembly/comdat.ll. I won't be able to fix it today, sorry..

[sbc100]

tools/obj2yaml/wasm2yaml.cpp

I ended up exposing the Index directly in the WasmFunction struct to avoid the need for this.

[sbc100]

When testing with lld I noticed that the comdat group names are appearing as undefined symbols in the final output.

See: https://reviews.llvm.org/D41959

I this case it results in unresolved symbol: sharedComdat

Can you think of a way to avoid including these?

 ``largest``
     The linker will choose the section containing the largest COMDAT key.
 ``noduplicates``
     The linker requires that only section with this COMDAT key exist.
 ``samesize``
     The linker may choose any COMDAT key but the sections must contain the
     same amount of data.
 
-Note that the Mach-O platform doesn't support COMDATs and ELF only supports
-``any`` as a selection kind.
