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.
