Solution to fix PR27066 - Redefinition with same mangled name as another definition (dllexport and uuid)
Needs ReviewPublic

Authored by zahiraam on Feb 21 2018, 7:53 AM.

Details

Summary

In this (partial) test case:
...
struct declspec(dllexport) C1 : public A <&uuidof(S1)>
{};
struct declspec(dllexport) C2 : public A<&uuidof(S2)>
{};
...

clang should be generating a single instantiation of A. It is instead generating two of them. This happens only in the presence of uuid.

Compiling this with clang this test case (dllexport with no uuid):
template <const char* s> class A {};
char s = 'a';
struct declspec(dllexport) C1 : public A <&s>
{};
struct
declspec(dllexport) C2 : public A<&s>
{};

has the same(correct) behavior than MSVC:

ksh-3.2$ dumpbin /symbols t3.o | grep "class A"
008 00000000 SECT4 notype () External | ??4?$A@$1?s@@3DA@@QEAAAEAV0@AEBV0@@Z (public: class A<&char s> & cdecl A<&char s>::operator=(class A<&char s> const &))
00D 00000000 SECT5 notype () External | ??4?$A@$1?s@@3DA@@QEAAAEAV0@$$QEAV0@@Z (public: class A<&char s> &
cdecl A<&char s>::operator=(class A<&char s> &&))
ksh-3.2$

The solution proposed in this patch is the generation a new template argument for uuid.

Let me know if you agree.

We should really, really avoid making this sort of change without first trying to desugar uuidof into a reference to a variable. That would solve a ton of problems, problems like this one.

It seems to me that the test here is very much lacking. It doesn't seem to include the example you've mentioned, and has no validation to ensure that there is a single instantiation happening. I'd like to see what happens when a UUID is passed as a pack, how SFINAE works on it, etc.

If you combine the getAsUuidExpr line and the mangleExpession line, you can get rid of curlies, and be more consistent with the surrounding code.

Adding test case.

We should really, really avoid making this sort of change without first trying to desugar uuidof into a reference to a variable. That would solve a ton of problems, problems like this one.

Not sure I fully understand what you are proposing?

Are you proposing that generated symbols like this:
??4?$A@$E?_GUID_ddb47a6a_0f23_11d5_9109_00e0296b75d3@@3U__s_GUID@@B@@QEAAAEAV0@AEBV0@@Z
Be de-sugared? Wouldn't that be different that what MS is doing?
Can you please give me more details about what you are thinking of?
Thanks.

We create an AST such that the following:

struct _GUID;

template <const _GUID *>
class A {};

struct __declspec(uuid("{DDB47A6A-0F23-11D5-9109-00E0296B75D3}")) S {};

struct __declspec(dllexport) C : public A<&__uuidof(S)> {};

is turned into something like:

struct _GUID;

__declspec(selectany) __s_GUID const _GUID_ddb47a6a_0f23_11d5_9109_00e0296b75d3 = {...};

template <const _GUID *>
class A {};

struct __declspec(uuid("{DDB47A6A-0F23-11D5-9109-00E0296B75D3}")) S {};

struct __declspec(dllexport) C : public A<&_GUID_ddb47a6a_0f23_11d5_9109_00e0296b75d3> {};

Do we need to also track whether the argument is a pointer or reference to a UUID (and also the cv-qualifiers)? For the Declaration case, we track this by tracking the corresponding parameter type; the same thing would presumably work here.

We should really, really avoid making this sort of change without first trying to desugar uuidof into a reference to a variable. That would solve a ton of problems, problems like this one.

This desugaring approach is not how we generally do things in Clang. The fact that MS exposes a variable that can be named from user code is, in my opinion, simply a bug in their implementation -- their implementation details are leaking -- and not part of the actual semantics here. I view this as exactly analogous to typeid (which would have exactly the same problems if its result could be used as a non-type template parameter); as with typeid, __uuidof notionally produces a global object not corresponding to any variable. If we want to model this as a declaration, we could add a new Decl subclass for these uuid objects (and eventually also for objects produced by typeid). But I don't think we should model them as variables unless that's actually part of their intended semantics.

Here's my thinking: the __uuidof expression literally declares a variable called _GUID_ddb47a6a_0f23_11d5_9109_00e0296b75d3 of type __s_GUID which is why it behaves the way it does: https://godbolt.org/g/74FY7U

I don't think it is reasonable to invent new semantics which are different from the MSVC ones because we find the MSVC ones inelegant. The huge upside I see from matching their behavior is that the implementation is dramatically simpler, we have a considerable amount of mumbo jumbo in the template instantiation code to handle __uuidof correctly and it looks like we will need some more.

What is the relative upside to a new kind of Decl? Better AST fidelity?

This is an implementation detail leaking, though. no? Note that that is a reserved name.

I don't think it is reasonable to invent new semantics which are different from the MSVC ones because we find the MSVC ones inelegant.

I mostly agree, but my point is that this is *not* the MSVC semantics, it's merely an implementation detail that non-conforming code happens to be able to observe. Suppose that type_info objects were similarly accessible in MSVC by guessing their mangled names. Would you be arguing that we should inject variables for those too? (And note that it is *nearly* true that type_info objects work that way: https://godbolt.org/g/zByFFg -- but the parser gets confused somehow when you reference them.) The only difference I can see between these cases is that the reserved name used for the GUID case happens to not contain any ?s and @s, so happens to be utterable as an identifier.

We should not attempt to be compatible with the cases where MSVC's implementation details happen to leak into user-visible semantics.

What is the relative upside to a new kind of Decl? Better AST fidelity?

Yes, exactly. The same reason we don't desguar other things any more than we have to.

Before I start implementing this I want to make sure that we are on the same page on this.
From your comments it looks like we do not want to create global variables for the uuid globals. I tend to agree with that. I do like the idea of creating a new Decl type for the uuid declspec. But I want to make sure that I understand what you are referring to.
Currently this declaration:
struct
__declspec(uuid("{DDB47A6A-0F23-11D5-9109-00E0296B75D3}"))
S1;

a CXXRecordDecl type is generated with attributes (the uuid being an attribute). Are you proposing that instead a new type is generated for S1 say something like CXXUuidRecord? And create also a new TagType that corresponds to this new Decl?

No. Concretely, I'd suggest we create a new UuidDecl object representing the _GUID object. An instance of UuidDecl would be created and owned by the uuid attribute, and __uuidof(X) would denote the UuidDecl owned by the uuid attribute on the CXXRecordDecl. We'd also need some way to form redeclaration chains for UuidDecls (which means we'll need a map from UUID to UuidDecl somewhere, perhaps on the ASTContext).

As per Richard comment. I have added a UuidDecl owned by the uuid attribute. This patch concerns only this change. It is not a patch to fix the bug yet. I want to make sure that we are in agreement with my changes first. Then I will change the code that deal with ParseCXUuid.
Comments are welcome.
Thanks.

You're not storing a DeclSpecUuidDecl within the attribute, so you don't need to reserve enough space for one here. In fact, this constant appears to be unused, so you can just remove it.

It would be nice to have a convenience accessor on UuidAttr to get the UUID as a string. (You can add one using AdditionalMembers in Attr.td.)

lib/Parse/ParseDecl.cpp
568–583 ↗(On Diff #142516)

The Parser should not create Decls (that's a layering violation). There are two ways to handle this:

  1. Add a Sema method to act on a UUID attribute string, and return a pointer that you can stash in the Attrs list.
  2. Just store a string in the Attrs list, and move the code to convert the string into a DeclSpecUuidDecl* and store that on the UuidAttr into Sema.

I'd strongly prefer the second option; from the point of view of the parser, we can still just treat this as an attribute that takes a string, and we can do the string -> DeclSpecUuidDecl handling entirely within the semantic analysis for the attribute (in Sema).

572 ↗(On Diff #142516)

What should happen if multiple declarations (of distinct entities) use the same __declspec(uuid(...)) attribute? Should you get a redefinition error for the attribute or should they all share the same UUID entity? Either way, we'll want to do some (minimal) UUID lookup and build a redeclaration chain for DeclSpecUuidDecls.

If we want to align with MS, we don't want to signal an error. So may be I should have a map that assigns to each StrUuid a list of DeclSpecUuid?
So for this code:
struct
__declspec(uuid("{DDB47A6A-0F23-11D5-9109-00E0296B75D3}"))
S1 {};

struct
__declspec(uuid("{DDB47A6A-0F23-11D5-9109-00E0296B75D3}"))
S2 {};

I will have a map from DDB47A6A-0F23-11D5-9109-00E0296B75D3 to {S1, S2}. Do you agree?

I see! I only took a quick look, but this looks exactly like what @rsmith has been asking for in discussions for a long time now: a more explicit AST representation of uuid of uuidof in template arguments. I'll make an effort to get his attention and see if this addresses his concerns.

Thanks, this looks like a good broad direction.

I think this patch does not goes far enough yet. Broad comments (partially duplicating some of the specific comments on the patch itself):

  • form the DeclSpecUuidDecl earlier, when parsing the attribute argument
  • store a pointer to the DeclSpecUuidDecl on a non-dependent CXXUuidofExpr
  • remove the maps in Sema, and instead ask attributes and uuidof expressions for their declarations
  • DeclSpecUuidDecl creation needs to either deduplicate declarations with the same UUID or form redeclaration chains for such declarations
  • we are missing at least serialization and deserialization code for the new declaration kind (and likely other things too: ASTImporter support, for instance)
  • we should be able to emit DeclSpecUuidDecls in CodeGen, replacing our current ad-hoc emission of UUID globals

220 ↗(On Diff #191371)

I don't really like adding new special kinds of argument representation in ParsedAttr, but... this really is a very special kind of argument, with rules different from anything else.

Have you considered forming the DeclSpecUuidDecl object earlier (when the argument is parsed) and storing it here? That'd be a closer match for how we handle other forms of attribute arguments (particularly expressions).

Use an llvm::StringMap here? But I'm also not convinced this should exist at all.

399 ↗(On Diff #191371)

This seems suspicious. If we want the uuid of a declaration, should we not be asking it for its UuidAttr instead?

594 ↗(On Diff #191371)

How does this handle the case where multiple tokens must be concatenated to form a uuid? Eg, uuid(12345678-9abc-def0-1234-56789abcdef0)

lib/Sema/SemaDeclAttr.cpp
5371 ↗(On Diff #191371)

We should be comparing to see if the declarations are the same here (use declaresSameEntity on the UUID decls).

5404–5409 ↗(On Diff #191371)

Sema should not be dealing with lexical issues like this. This should have been handled when parsing the attribute argument. (Also this is missing handling for other encoding prefixes and suffixes.)

lib/Sema/SemaExprCXX.cpp
636 ↗(On Diff #191371)

This variable is unused. (And it's not clear why we would assume that the most-recently-created DeclSpecUuidDecl would correspond to anything relevant here.)

664–670 ↗(On Diff #191371)

I think this should be finding the UuidAttr of the declaration and asking it for its DeclSpecUuidDecl.

675–678 ↗(On Diff #191371)

We should store a pointer to the UUID declaration on a non-dependent CXXUuidofExpr.

lib/Sema/SemaTemplateInstantiateDecl.cpp
554–558 ↗(On Diff #191371)

Just use llvm_unreachable here; DeclSpecUuidDecls are global and shouldn't be instantiated.

There are still a few things I haven't addressed yet. Mostly because not sure there is another solution like getting rid of the map from StringRef to expr. The other issue is not adding new kind to ParsedAttr. There may be another way of doing it, but didn't look at it yet.

I think you should have a map from UUID to either the most recent DeclSpecUuidDecl for that UUID, and form redeclaration chains for DeclSpecUuidDecls with the same UUID. (DeclSpecUuidDecl should derive from Redeclarable<DeclSpecUuidDecl> and you can call setPreviousDecl to connect the new declaration to the prior one.)

You'll need to make sure this case is properly handled during lazy AST deserialization.

594 ↗(On Diff #191371)

This case is accepted by MSVC and not here:

struct __declspec(uuid(R"(12345678-9abc-def0-1234-56789abcdef0)")) s;

(MSVC also accepts a u8 prefix, but no other encoding prefix. I also note that MSVC does not support string literal concatenation here, so we don't need to deal with that.)

Please use StringLiteralParser to properly handle cases like this, rather than rolling your own string literal parsing here.

lib/Sema/SemaExprCXX.cpp
619 ↗(On Diff #193258)

Do we need both this and getUuidAttrOfType?

635 ↗(On Diff #193258)

It would seem cleaner to collect the UuidAttrDecls or UuidAttrs here rather than the declarations that have those attributes.

647–648 ↗(On Diff #193258)

Dead code.

675–681 ↗(On Diff #193258)

Revert this change; we need to build a new CXXUuidofExpr with a correct source location and type rather than reusing one from somewhere else. Then remove UuidExpMap.

@rsmith I think I have made all the changes you have pointed out to. But please note that this new patch only impements an explicit AST representation of uuid in template arguments. It does not fix the bug for which this review was opened for.
I will take care of the bug in time. But before doing that I want to make sure that the changes required to give an explicit AST for uuid is correct.

This map is not necessary (you can get the DeclSpecUuidDecl from the UuidAttr on the Decl) and not correct (it's not serialized and deserialized). Please remove it.

Was this supposed to be included in this patch? It looks like this is papering over a bug elsewhere.

lib/Sema/SemaDeclAttr.cpp
5405–5408 ↗(On Diff #200484)

This if should be:

if (declaresSameEntity(UA->getDeclSpecUuidDecl(), Uuid))

(Not a string comparison. We already combined UuidDecls with the same string into the same entity.)

5452–5460 ↗(On Diff #200484)

You already have a suitable string literal as AL.getArgAsExpr(0). There's no need to fabricate another one here.

5471–5474 ↗(On Diff #200484)

Please combine these lines.

5473–5474 ↗(On Diff #200484)

You should check for a prior DeclSpecUuidDecl with the same UUID here and set it as the previous declaration of the new one, so that they're treated as declaring the same entity.

(Remove this; with the other change I suggested above this should be unnecessary.)

Renamed it.

lib/CodeGen/CodeGenModule.cpp
1071–1073 ↗(On Diff #200484)

This is the code that actually fixes the bug. The rest of the patch is to represent uuid in the AST.

1071–1073 ↗(On Diff #200484)

Removed.
