* Change the PointerType api for creating pointer types. The old functionality ↵Christopher Lamb2007-12-171-2/+2
| | | | | | of PointerType::get() has become PointerType::getUnqual(), which returns a pointer in the generic address space. The new prototype of PointerType::get() requires both a type and an address space. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@45082 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

* Fix PR1628. When exception handling is turned on,Duncan Sands2007-09-051-8/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | labels are generated bracketing each call (not just invokes). This is used to generate entries in the exception table required by the C++ personality. However it gets in the way of tail-merging. This patch solves the problem by no longer placing labels around ordinary calls. Instead we generate entries in the exception table that cover every instruction in the function that wasn't covered by an invoke range (the range given by the labels around the invoke). As an optimization, such entries are only generated for parts of the function that contain a call, since for the moment those are the only instructions that can throw an exception [1]. As a happy consequence, we now get a smaller exception table, since the same region can cover many calls. While there, I also implemented folding of invoke ranges - successive ranges are merged when safe to do so. Finally, if a selector contains only a cleanup, there's a special shorthand for it - place a 0 in the call-site entry. I implemented this while there. As a result, the exception table output (excluding filters) is now optimal - it cannot be made smaller [2]. The problem with throw filters is that folding them optimally is hard, and the benefit of folding them is minimal. [1] I tested that having trapping instructions (eg divide by zero) in such a region doesn't cause trouble. [2] It could be made smaller with the help of higher layers, eg by having branch folding reorder basic blocks ending in invokes with the same landing pad so they follow each other. I don't know if this is worth doing. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@41718 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | gcc exception handling: if an exception unwinds through an invoke, then execution must branch to the invoke's unwind target. We previously tried to enforce this by appending a cleanup action to every selector, however this does not always work correctly due to an optimization in the C++ unwinding runtime: if only cleanups would be run while unwinding an exception, then the program just terminates without actually executing the cleanups, as invoke semantics would require. I was hoping this wouldn't be a problem, but in fact it turns out to be the cause of all the remaining failures in the LLVM testsuite (these also fail with -enable-correct-eh-support, so turning on -enable-eh didn't make things worse!). Instead we need to append a full-blown catch-all to the end of each selector. The correct way of doing this depends on the personality function, i.e. it is language dependent, so can only be done by gcc. Thus this patch which generalizes the eh.selector intrinsic so that it can handle all possible kinds of action table entries (before it didn't accomodate cleanups): now 0 indicates a cleanup, and filters have to be specified using the number of type infos plus one rather than the number of type infos. Related gcc patches will cause Ada to pass a cleanup (0) to force the selector to always fire, while C++ will use a C++ catch-all (null). git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@41484 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
