Refine AOT exception check in the caller when returning from callee function,
remove the exception check instructions when hw bound check is enabled to
improve the performance: create guard page to trigger signal handler when
exception occurs.
Refactor LLVM JIT for some purposes:
- To simplify the source code of JIT compilation
- To simplify the JIT modes
- To align with LLVM latest changes
- To prepare for the Multi-tier JIT compilation, refer to #1302
The changes mainly include:
- Remove the MCJIT mode, replace it with ORC JIT eager mode
- Remove the LLVM legacy pass manager (only keep the LLVM new pass manager)
- Change the lazy mode's LLVM module/function binding:
change each function in an individual LLVM module into all functions in a single LLVM module
- Upgraded ORC JIT to ORCv2 JIT to enable lazy compilation
Refer to #1468
Refactor the layout of interpreter and AOT module instance:
- Unify the interp/AOT module instance, use the same WASMModuleInstance/
WASMMemoryInstance/WASMTableInstance data structures for both interpreter
and AOT
- Make the offset of most fields the same in module instance for both interpreter
and AOT, append memory instance structure, global data and table instances to
the end of module instance for interpreter mode (like AOT mode)
- For extra fields in WASM module instance, use WASMModuleInstanceExtra to
create a field `e` for interpreter
- Change the LLVM JIT module instance creating process, LLVM JIT uses the WASM
module and module instance same as interpreter/Fast-JIT mode. So that Fast JIT
and LLVM JIT can access the same data structures, and make it possible to
implement the Multi-tier JIT (tier-up from Fast JIT to LLVM JIT) in the future
- Unify some APIs: merge some APIs for module instance and memory instance's
related operations (only implement one copy)
Note that the AOT ABI is same, the AOT file format, AOT relocation types, how AOT
code accesses the AOT module instance and so on are kept unchanged.
Refer to:
https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasm-micro-runtime/issues/1384
Since legacy binding for loop unswitch pass was removed and we can't get
it back. Implement its equivalent in `aot_llvm_extra.cpp` and use it in
`aot_compiler.c`.
Follow up to #1183.
Enable aot compiler and jit based on llvm-14.0 and llvm-15.0git,
replace LLVMBuildLoad/LLVMBuildInBoundsGEP/LLVMBuildCall with
LLVMBuildLoad2/LLVMBuildInBoundsGEP2/LLVMBuildCall2, and pass
them with related types, so as to meet the requirements of opaque
pointers.
And fix several compilation errors for llvm-14.0/15.0git.
Most spec cases and standalone cases are tested.
Use LLVM new pass manager for wamrc to replace the legacy pass manger,
so as to gain better performance and reduce the compilation time.
Reference links:
- https://llvm.org/docs/NewPassManager.html
- https://blog.llvm.org/posts/2021-03-26-the-new-pass-manager
And add an option to use the legacy pm mode when building wamrc:
cmake .. -DWAMR_BUILD_LLVM_LEGACY_PM=1
For JIT mode, keep it unchanged as it only runs several function passes and
using new pass manager will increase the compilation time.
And refactor the codes of applying LLVM passes.
Refactor LLVM Orc JIT to actually enable the lazy compilation and speedup
the launching process:
https://llvm.org/docs/ORCv2.html#laziness
Main modifications:
- Create LLVM module for each wasm function, wrap it with thread safe module
so that the modules can be compiled parallelly
- Lookup function from aot module instance's func_ptrs but not directly call the
function to decouple the module relationship
- Compile the function when it is first called and hasn't been compiled
- Create threads to pre-compile the WASM functions parallelly when loading
- Set Lazy JIT as default, update document and build/test scripts
Enable LLVM link time optimization for AOT and enable it by default,
and provide "wamrc --disable-llvm-lto" option to disable it.
And modify the spec test script, disable it by default when testing
spec cases.
