[llvm-dev] F18 ready to be merged + preview of merge

Hi Mehdi,

I can't replicate those failures at my end, could you let me know what OS,
compiler and CMake flags you're using so I can try and reproduce?

Thanks!
David Truby

Hi llvm-dev

We believe we have completed enough of the agreed pre-upstreaming changes to
start talking about merging F18 into LLVM. The live status is tracked at [1].
There are a few details that we have not managed to hammer out and we propose to
tackle inside the LLVM monorepo. I have put a summary of these at the bottom of
this mail.

Does anyone have any objections to flang being merged into LLVM with these
issues still in-flight? Obviously we remain committed to solving them after
merging into LLVM?

If that is all good then, as previously agreed, we want to give folks something
more concrete to review and a bit of time to give feedback on it before we
commit. David Truby has just now created a preview of what the LLVM project
would look like with F18 merged in as flang. The obvious caveat is that both
LLVM and F18 are continuing development so there will be additional commits on
both sides of the real merge when it happens.

Here is the merge preview: https://github.com/DavidTruby/llvm-project/

This branch shows:

  *   The commit history of F18 re-written as a straight line branch by Peter
Waller's script.
  *   A commit that tweaks F18's README to rename it as flang and make it
more relevant inside the monorepo (being reviewed under
https://github.com/flang-compiler/f18/pull/909).
  *   The merge commit that adds F18 to the monorepo as flang
  *   A patch to the monorepo cmake that adds flang as an optionally built
target - see also https://reviews.llvm.org/D72416


I really encourage all folks maintaining buildbots or downstream builds to give
this a look over to make sure it works for you. For everyone else, I hope this
looks good to you too. All feedback very welcome.

If everyone is happy with that, we'll agree on a new date in the regular F18
community call on Monday. I'll be back in touch after that.

Thanks
Rich

Remaining Details still in-progress

[1] clang-format
F18's clang-format file will have a few differences to the global formatting
style. These are mainly ones that control alignment of code. We have not come to
an agreement as a community on the best way forward here. This flang-dev
thread<http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/flang-dev/2020-March/000243.html>
summarises the debate. We would like to continue this debate after F18 becomes
part of the monorepo.

[2] llvm_unreachable
Previously we stated that we would try to use llvm_unreachable in F18 whenever
possible. Presently, F18 has a similar function called die, but this is used to
cover multiple run-time error cases only some of which should be covered by
llvm_unreachable. We would like to handle all cases together which also means
coming up with a good system for reporting ICEs. See these code review
comments<https://github.com/flang-compiler/f18/issues/966> for details. We
propose to start fresh on this work after F18 becomes part of the monorepo.

[3] remove_if vs RemoveCarriageReturns
Whilst removing code that manipulated C-style strings we hit upon a case which
seemed to show that std::remove_if was a regression on certain targets over the
current algorithm using C standard memmove. This flang-dev
thread<http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/flang-dev/2020-April/000265.html>
summarises the situation and we are gathering further data before deciding what
to do. We propose to continue to investigate this and make any necessary changes
after F18 becomes part of the monorepo.

[4] Doxygen infrastructure
We are still working through the final comments on this
patch<https://github.com/flang-compiler/f18/pull/1065> and hope to have it
merged before we become part of LLVM. As this patch simply adds the
infrastructure to add doxygen comments and there are no doxygen comments in F18
source at present, we think that this should not block F18's inclusion in
the monorepo. We commit to finishing this off once F18 becomes part of the
monorepo.

[llvm-dev] F18 ready to be merged + preview of merge

Hi Medhi

Definitely not expected, the tests should all pass.

As well as what David asked, the verbose output from lit would be helpful for
debugging too.

Thanks for giving it a try.

[llvm-dev] F18 ready to be merged + preview of merge

Attached is the log.
I'm building with:

clang version 10.0.0 (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/
3a6da1122b990386edeba0987d0d1fdc9c8dc53d)
Target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix

On some Ubuntu-like distribution.

I also ran with ASAN once and it found a bunch of leaks in bin/tco.

Best,

[llvm-dev] FW: F18 ready to be merged + preview of merge

Hi Mehdi,

This is the same list of failures that we were seeing on our FIR working branch.
One problem seemed to be related to a misconfiguration in the cmake files as to
where the system module files were located.  The latest cmake changes seem to
have got that straightened out.  We have around 370 passing tests (0 failing) in
our working branch.

A more recent run of the test tool, tco, with valgrind does not show any memory
leaks. (We have had some bugs, of course.)

Hi,

This sounds reasonable to me overall. There are some CMake issue to go through
(I need to dig into it a bit).

When I run `ninja check-flang` at the moment (after fixing CMake) I end up with:

Testing Time: 16.22s
********************
Failing Tests (12):
    Flang :: Lower/pre-fir-tree04.f90

Does anyone have any objections to flang being merged into LLVM with these

merging into LLVM?

If that is all good then, as previously agreed, we want to give folks something
more concrete to review and a bit of time to give feedback on it before we
commit. David Truby has just now created a preview of what the LLVM project
would look like with F18 merged in as flang. The obvious caveat is that both
LLVM and F18 are continuing development so there will be additional commits on
both sides of the real merge when it happens.

Here is the merge preview: https://github.com/DavidTruby/llvm-project/

This branch shows:
•         The commit history of F18 re-written as a straight line branch by
Peter Waller's script.
•         A commit that tweaks F18's README to rename it as flang and make
it more relevant inside the monorepo (being reviewed under
https://github.com/flang-compiler/f18/pull/909).
•         The merge commit that adds F18 to the monorepo as flang
•         A patch to the monorepo cmake that adds flang as an optionally built
target - see also https://reviews.llvm.org/D72416

I really encourage all folks maintaining buildbots or downstream builds to give
this a look over to make sure it works for you. For everyone else, I hope this
looks good to you too. All feedback very welcome.

If everyone is happy with that, we'll agree on a new date in the regular F18
community call on Monday. I'll be back in touch after that.

Thanks
Rich

Remaining Details still in-progress

[1] clang-format
F18's clang-format file will have a few differences to the global formatting
style. These are mainly ones that control alignment of code. We have not come to
an agreement as a community on the best way forward here. This flang-dev
thread<http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/flang-dev/2020-March/000243.html>
summarises the debate. We would like to continue this debate after F18 becomes
part of the monorepo.

[2] llvm_unreachable
Previously we stated that we would try to use llvm_unreachable in F18 whenever
possible. Presently, F18 has a similar function called die, but this is used to
cover multiple run-time error cases only some of which should be covered by
llvm_unreachable. We would like to handle all cases together which also means
coming up with a good system for reporting ICEs. See these code review
comments<https://github.com/flang-compiler/f18/issues/966> for details. We
propose to start fresh on this work after F18 becomes part of the monorepo.

[3] remove_if vs RemoveCarriageReturns
Whilst removing code that manipulated C-style strings we hit upon a case which
seemed to show that std::remove_if was a regression on certain targets over the
current algorithm using C standard memmove. This flang-dev
thread<http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/flang-dev/2020-April/000265.html>
summarises the situation and we are gathering further data before deciding what
to do. We propose to continue to investigate this and make any necessary changes
after F18 becomes part of the monorepo.

[4] Doxygen infrastructure
We are still working through the final comments on this
patch<https://github.com/flang-compiler/f18/pull/1065> and hope to have it
merged before we become part of LLVM. As this patch simply adds the
infrastructure to add doxygen comments and there are no doxygen comments in F18
source at present, we think that this should not block F18's inclusion in
the monorepo. We commit to finishing this off once F18 becomes part of the
monorepo.
