| 10 // The ExceptionInfoWriter class converts the clauses of a |
| 11 // "landingpad" instruction into data tables stored in global |
| 12 // variables. These tables are interpreted by PNaCl's C++ runtime |
| 13 // library (either libsupc++ or libcxxabi), which is linked into a |
| 14 // pexe. |
| 15 // |
| 16 // This is similar to the lowering that the LLVM backend does to |
| 17 // convert landingpad clauses into ".gcc_except_table" sections. The |
| 18 // difference is that ExceptionInfoWriter is an IR-to-IR |
| 19 // transformation that runs on the PNaCl user toolchain side. The |
| 20 // format it produces is not part of PNaCl's stable ABI; the PNaCl |
| 21 // translator and LLVM backend do not know about this format. |
| 22 // |
| 23 // Encoding: |
| 24 // |
| 25 // A landingpad instruction contains a list of clauses. |
| 26 // ExceptionInfoWriter encodes each clause as a 32-bit "clause ID". A |
| 27 // clause is one of the following forms: |
| 28 // |
| 29 // 1) "catch i8* @ExcType" |
| 30 // * This clause means that the landingpad should be entered if |
| 31 // the C++ exception being thrown has type @ExcType (or a |
| 32 // subtype of @ExcType). @ExcType is a pointer to the |
| 33 // std::type_info object (an RTTI object) for the C++ exception |
| 34 // type. |
| 35 // * Clang generates this for a "catch" block in the C++ source. |
| 36 // * @ExcType is NULL for "catch (...)" (catch-all) blocks. |
| 37 // * This is encoded as the "type ID" for @ExcType, defined below, |
| 38 // which is a positive integer. |
| 39 // |
| 40 // 2) "filter [i8* @ExcType1, ..., i8* @ExcTypeN]" |
| 41 // * This clause means that the landingpad should be entered if |
| 42 // the C++ exception being thrown *doesn't* match any of the |
| 43 // types in the list (which are again specified as |
| 44 // std::type_info pointers). |
| 45 // * Clang uses this to implement C++ exception specifications, e.g. |
| 46 // void foo() throw(ExcType1, ..., ExcTypeN) { ... } |
| 47 // * This is encoded as the filter ID, X, where X < 0, and |
| 48 // &__pnacl_eh_filter_table[-X-1] points to a 0-terminated |
| 49 // array of integer "type IDs". |
| 50 // |
| 51 // 3) "cleanup" |
| 52 // * This means that the landingpad should always be entered. |
| 53 // * Clang uses this for calling objects' destructors. |
| 54 // * This is encoded as 0. |
| 55 // * The runtime may treat "cleanup" differently from "catch i8* |
| 56 // null" (a catch-all). In C++, if an unhandled exception |
| 57 // occurs, the language runtime may abort execution without |
| 58 // running any destructors. The runtime may implement this by |
| 59 // searching for a matching non-"cleanup" clause, and aborting |
| 60 // if it does not find one, before entering any landingpad |
| 61 // blocks. |
| 62 // |
| 63 // The "type ID" for a type @ExcType is a 1-based index into the array |
| 64 // __pnacl_eh_type_table[]. That is, the type ID is a value X such |
| 65 // that __pnacl_eh_type_table[X-1] == @ExcType, and X >= 1. |
| 66 // |
| 67 // ExceptionInfoWriter generates the following data structures: |
| 68 // |
| 69 // struct action_table_entry { |
| 70 // int32_t clause_id; |
| 71 // uint32_t next_clause_list_id; |
| 72 // }; |
| 73 // |
| 74 // // Represents singly linked lists of clauses. |
| 75 // extern const struct action_table_entry __pnacl_eh_action_table[]; |
| 76 // |
| 77 // // Allows std::type_infos to be represented using small integer IDs. |
| 78 // extern std::type_info *const __pnacl_eh_type_table[]; |
| 79 // |
| 80 // // Used to represent type arrays for "filter" clauses. |
| 81 // extern const uint32_t __pnacl_eh_filter_table[]; |
| 82 // |
| 83 // A "clause list ID" is either: |
| 84 // * 0, representing the empty list; or |
| 85 // * an index into __pnacl_eh_action_table[] with 1 added, which |
| 86 // specifies a node in the clause list. |
| 87 // |
| 88 // Example: |
| 89 // |
| 90 // std::type_info *const __pnacl_eh_type_table[] = { |
| 91 // // defines type ID 1 == ExcA and clause ID 1 == "catch ExcA" |
| 92 // &typeinfo(ExcA), |
| 93 // // defines type ID 2 == ExcB and clause ID 2 == "catch ExcB" |
| 94 // &typeinfo(ExcB), |
| 95 // // defines type ID 3 == ExcC and clause ID 3 == "catch ExcC" |
| 96 // &typeinfo(ExcC), |
| 97 // }; |
| 98 // |
| 99 // const uint32_t __pnacl_eh_filter_table[] = { |
| 100 // 1, // refers to ExcA; defines clause ID -1 as "filter [ExcA, ExcB]" |
| 101 // 2, // refers to ExcB; defines clause ID -2 as "filter [ExcB]" |
| 102 // 0, // list terminator; defines clause ID -3 as "filter []" |
| 103 // 3, // refers to ExcC; defines clause ID -4 as "filter [ExcC]" |
| 104 // 0, // list terminator; defines clause ID -5 as "filter []" |
| 105 // }; |
| 106 // |
| 107 // const struct action_table_entry __pnacl_eh_action_table[] = { |
| 108 // // defines clause list ID 1: |
| 109 // { |
| 110 // -4, // "filter [ExcC]" |
| 111 // 0, // end of list (no more actions) |
| 112 // }, |
| 113 // // defines clause list ID 2: |
| 114 // { |
| 115 // -1, // "filter [ExcA, ExcB]" |
| 116 // 1, // else go to clause list ID 1 |
| 117 // }, |
| 118 // // defines clause list ID 3: |
| 119 // { |
| 120 // 2, // "catch ExcB" |
| 121 // 2, // else go to clause list ID 2 |
| 122 // }, |
| 123 // // defines clause list ID 4: |
| 124 // { |
| 125 // 1, // "catch ExcA" |
| 126 // 3, // else go to clause list ID 3 |
| 127 // }, |
| 128 // }; |
| 129 // |
| 130 // So if a landingpad contains the clause list: |
| 131 // [catch ExcA, |
| 132 // catch ExcB, |
| 133 // filter [ExcA, ExcB], |
| 134 // filter [ExcC]] |
| 135 // then this can be represented as clause list ID 4 using the tables above. |
| 136 // |
| 137 // The C++ runtime library checks the clauses in order to decide |
| 138 // whether to enter the landingpad. If a clause matches, the |
| 139 // landingpad BasicBlock is passed the clause ID. The landingpad code |
| 140 // can use the clause ID to decide which C++ catch() block (if any) to |
| 141 // execute. |
| 142 // |
| 143 // The purpose of these exception tables is to keep code sizes |
| 144 // relatively small. The landingpad code only needs to check a small |
| 145 // integer clause ID, rather than having to call a function to check |
| 146 // whether the C++ exception matches a type. |
| 147 // |
| 148 // ExceptionInfoWriter's encoding corresponds loosely to the format of |
| 149 // GCC's .gcc_except_table sections. One difference is that |
| 150 // ExceptionInfoWriter writes fixed-width 32-bit integers, whereas |
| 151 // .gcc_except_table uses variable-length LEB128 encodings. We could |
| 152 // switch to LEB128 to save space in the future. |
