similar to: Non-relocating GC with liveness tracking

Thanks for reviving this. I completely forgot the details but I resolved this problem. Looking though the code, seems I forked RewriteStatepointsForGC pass, and change it to adding 'gc-livevars' bundle to the call/invoke inst after finding the livevars, instead of changing it to StatepointCall intrinsic.

Now that the statepoint changes have landed, I wanted to start a discussion about what's next for GC support in LLVM. I'm going to sketch out a strawman proposal, but I'm not set on any of this. I mostly just want to draw interested parties out of the woodwork. :) Overall Direction: In the short term, my intent is to preserve the functionality of the existing code, but migrate

As I've mentioned on the mailing list a couple of times over the last few months, we've been working on an approach for supporting precise fully relocating garbage collection in LLVM. I am happy to announce that we now have a version of the code available for public view and discussion. https://github.com/AzulSystems/llvm-late-safepoint-placement

Hello LLVM community, We have been experimenting with using LLVM IR as a target for a managed (dynamically typed) language via an AOT compiler (including a backend for ARM). One main challenge is getting the garbage collection right: We would like to be able to implement a moving collector. This requires us to a) find a precise set of root pointers and b) be able to rewrite those pointers after

For example, about the only comment that I see in include /llvm/IR/Statepoint.h is a note telling me that a class is only intended to be used on the stack. Doxygen comments and, for a feature like

TLDR. For anyone who is using the RewriteStatepointsForGC utility pass, there is a recent change you should know about which may require you to make some small changes to your stackmap parsing. I have landed a small series of patches which change how we're handling vector of pointers when reporting live pointers for the GC at safepoints. Previously, the RS4GC pass was attempting to

I've been looking at inlining invokes / calls done through statepoints and I want to have a design discussion before I sink too much time into something I'll have to throw away. I'm not actively working on adding inlining support to patchpoints, but I suspect these issues are applicable towards teaching LLVM to inline through patchpoints as well. There are two distinct problems to

Hi all, I am trying to implement statepoints for the AArch64 target and I’m running into the issue where the following bitcode: define i32 addrspace(1)* @test(i32 addrspace(1)* %ptr) gc "statepoint-example" { entry: call token (i64, i32, i1 ()*, i32, i32, ...) @llvm.experimental.gc.statepoint.p0f_i1f(i64 0, i32 0, i1 ()* @foo, i32 0, i32 0, i32 0, i32 0, i32 addrspace(1)* %ptr) ret

The long term plan is a) evolving, and b) dependent on the specific use case. :) It would definitely be nice if we could support both early and late safepoint insertion. I see no reason that LLVM as a project should pick one or the other since the infrastructure required is largely overlapping. (Obviously, I'm going to be mostly working on the parts that I need, but others are always

Hi, I implemented a garbage collector for a language I wrote in college using the llvm gc statepoint infrastructure. Information for statepoints: https://llvm.org/docs/Statepoints.html Example usage of parsing the llvm stackmap can be found at: https://github.com/dotnet/llilc/blob/master/lib/GcInfo/GcInfo.cpp https://llvm.org/docs/StackMaps.html#stackmap-format

void SelectionDAGBuilder::visitTargetIntrinsic(const CallInst &I, - unsigned Intrinsic) { - bool HasChain = !I.doesNotAccessMemory(); - bool OnlyLoad = HasChain && I.onlyReadsMemory(); + unsigned Intrinsic) { + // Info is set by getTgtMemInstrinsic + TargetLowering::IntrinsicInfo Info; + bool

Hello, list I am not quite sure if what I'm experiencing is a bug or intentional behavior. In the code below the result of a function call is a deopt arg to llvm.experimental.gc.statepoint (http://llvm.org/docs/Statepoints.html#llvm-experimental-gc-statepoint-intrinsic). Therefore a Stack Map containing location of this variable is created upon code generation. Here's the complete

Is there an explanation anywhere of what code that uses a stack map looks like? I'm interested in writing a garbage collector, but it's not clear to me how my code should make use of the stack map format to actually locate roots in memory. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi everyone, We seem to have allowed our documented target-independent intrinsics to acquire a somewhat-haphazard naming system, and I think we should standardize on one convention. All of the intrinsics have 'llvm.' as a prefix, and some also have some additional prefix 'llvm.dbg.', 'llvm.eh.', 'llvm.experimental.', etc., but after that we lose consistency. When

Hi, I'm trying to build a gc using the statepoint-example strategy. However, after hours of searching, reading documentation and trying to find code examples online, I cannot figure out how to access the Stack Map. The documentation for statepoint-example says: The stack map format generated by this GC strategy can be found in the Stack Map
