[BOLT][BTI] Add needed BTIs in LongJmp or refuse to optimize binary (#171149) This patch adds BTI landing pads to ShortJmp/LongJmp targets in the LongJmp pass when optimizing BTI binaries. BOLT does not have the ability to add BTI to all types of functions. This patch aims to insert the landing pad where possible, and emit an error and exit where it currently is not. BOLT cannot insert BTIs into several function "types", including: - ignored functions, - PLT functions, - other functions without a CFG. Additional context: In #161206, BOLT gained the ability to decode the .note.gnu.property section, and warn about lack of BTI support for BOLT. However, this warning is misleading: the emitted binary may not need extra BTI landing pads. With this patch, the emitted binary will be "BTI-safe".
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
