...ressive, profile-driven inlining for performance has led to significant code bloat and icache fragmentation (AsmDB - Ayers et al ‘2019<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__research.google_pubs_pub48320_&d=DwMFaQ&c=5VD0RTtNlTh3ycd41b3MUw&r=KfYo542rDdZQGClmgz-RBw&m=-cUmMKRcOXZHF-PpVxO_Dfg2mkIgP4L_QomIwDizeEE&s=5M8b2TUFoHuEJUjJjNRGvPxOEE0ktBbRfJVCoGAW4BQ&e=>). We find that most functions 5 KiB or larger have inlined children more than 10 layers deep bringing in exponentially more code at each inline level, not all of which is necessarily hot. Generally, in roughl...

Greetings, We present “Machine Function Splitter”, a codegen optimization pass which splits functions into hot and cold parts. This pass leverages the basic block sections feature recently introduced in LLVM from the Propeller project. The pass targets functions with profile coverage, identifies cold blocks and moves them to a separate section. The linker groups all cold blocks across functions
