Until now, after the ABI corpus was built from DWARF, the translation units of the corpus were walked and each function was considered for addition into the set of exported decls. During that walking, a first version of the set was put into a std::list and then, a set of filters (user-provided tunables like a list of regular expressions to keep or remove some functions from the exported decls) is applied to that list and the final set of exported decls is put in a std::vector. Profiling has shown that this process of building the set of exported decls is a hot spot and also that the current use of std::list was a big memory consumer especially on binaries with large exported symbol tables. So this patch builds the set of exported decls "on the fly", during DWARF reading, as opposed to waiting after the DWARF is read and having to walk the corpus again. The corpus defines a policy object that encapsulates the methods for determining if a function or variable ought to be part of the set of exported decls. The DWARF reader uses that policy object to determine which functions and variables among those built during the reading ought be part of the exported decls; the policy object also has a reference to the final vector (managed by the corpus) that must hold the exported decls, so the decls are put in that vector directly without unnecessary copying. Profiling also showed that the string copying done by {var_decl,function_decl}::get_id() was a hot spot. So the patch returns a reference there. With this patch applied, the peak memory consumption of abidiff on libabigail.so itself (abidiff libabigail.so libabigail.so) is 54MB of resident and takes 2 minutes and 16s (on my slow system). Without the patch the peak consumption was more than 300MB and it was taking slightly longer. For the test of bug https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17948, memory consumtion and wall clock time spent is down from 3.4GB and 1m59s to 760MB and 0m43s. * include/abg-ir.h ({var,function}_decl::get_id): Return a reference. * src/abg-ir.cc ({var,function}_decl::get_id): Return a reference to the string rather than copying it over. * include/abg-corpus.h (class corpus::exported_decls_builder): Declare new type. (corpus::{sort_functions, sort_variables, maybe_drop_some_exported_decls, get_exported_decls_builder}): Declare new methods. * src/abg-corpus.h (corpus::exported_decls_builder::priv): Define new type. (class symtab_build_visitor_type): Remove this type that is useless now. (corpus::exported_decls_builder::{exported_decls_builder, exported_functions, exported_variables, maybe_add_fn_to_exported_fns, maybe_add_var_to_exported_vars}): Define new functions. (corpus::priv::is_public_decl_table_built): Remove this data member. It's now useless. (corpus::priv::priv): Adjust. (corpus::priv::build_public_decl_table): Remove this member function. It's now useless. (corpus::{priv::build_unreferenced_symbols_tables, get_functions, get_variables}): No need to build the public decls table here. It's already built by the time the corpus is read from DWARF now. (corpus::{sort_functions, sort_variables, maybe_drop_some_exported_decls, get_exported_decls_builder}): Define new member functions. * src/abg-dwarf-reader.cc (read_context::exported_decls_builder): New data member. (read_context::read_context): Initialize it. (read_context::{exported_decls_builder, maybe_add_fn_to_exported_fns, maybe_add_var_to_exported_vars}): Define new member functions. (read_debug_info_into_corpus): Get the the new 'exported_decls_builder' object from the corpus and stick it into the read context so the DWARF reading code can use it to build the exported decls set. When the DWARF reading is done, sort the set of exported functions and variables that was built. (build_ir_node_from_die): When a function or variable is built, consider putting it into the set of exported decls. * tools/abicompat.cc (main): Now that the exported decls is built *before* we had a chance to stick the list of symbol IDs to keep, call corpus::maybe_drop_some_exported_decls() to update the set of exported decls we should consider for the corpus. was applied to that list and the final Signed-off-by: Dodji Seketeli <dodji@redhat.com> |
