rustc_target: add known safe s390x target features #127506

liushuyu · 2024-07-09T06:54:42Z

This pull request adds known safe target features for s390x (aka IBM Z systems).
Currently, these features are unstable since stabilizing the target features requires submitting proposals.

The vector feature was added in IBM Z13 (arch11), and this is a SIMD feature for the newer IBM Z systems.
The backchain attribute is the IBM Z way of adding frame pointers like unwinding capabilities (the "frame-pointer" switch on IBM Z and IBM POWER platforms will add emulated frame pointers to the binary, which profilers can't use for unwinding the stack).

Both attributes can be applied at the LLVM module or function levels. However, the backchain attribute has to be enabled for all the functions in the call stack to get a successful unwind process.

Apologies for the delay in reviewing, looks good to me, r=me after rebasing.

... this is a special attribute that was made to be a target-feature in LLVM 18+, but in all previous versions, this "feature" is a naked attribute. We will have to handle this situation differently than all other target-features.

Rebased. Tests passed.

+            // skip checking special features, as LLVM may not understands them
+            if RUSTC_SPECIAL_FEATURES.contains(feature) {
+                return true;
+            }


This makes it so that cfg!(target_feature = "backchain") will always be true, even if it is not enabled. Is that the intended behavior? It seems very odd.

No, this is to skip checking if LLVM supports this attribute. The logic for adding this attribute is somewhere else.
If you are unconvinced, check out this Godbolt playground: https://godbolt.org/z/77hrrsbo1.

I am convinced that the logic is wrong, see #129927.

Also, I have no idea what I am supposed to look at in this Godbolt.^^ I know nothing about s390x or backchain, I am just noticing odd things in the rustc source code.

This entire RUSTC_SPECIAL_FEATURES is a temporary hack we can drop when we start requiring LLVM 18, right? Please file an issue to track this cleanup.

Yes, this is due to older LLVM does not support adding this attribute to the target-features attribute.

…RalfJung s390x: Fix a regression related to backchain feature In rust-lang#127506, we introduced a new IBM Z-specific target feature, `backchain`. This particular `target-feature` was available as a function-level attribute in LLVM 17 and below, so some hacks were used to avoid blowing up LLVM when querying the supported LLVM features. This led to an unfortunate regression where `cfg!(target-feature = "backchain")` will always return true. This pull request aims to fix this issue, and a test has been introduced to ensure it will never happen again. Fixes rust-lang#129927. r? `@RalfJung`
