This adds a GetObjectFileInterface callback member to
StaticLibraryDefinitionGenerator, and adds an optional argument for initializing
that member to StaticLibraryDefinitionGenerator's named constructors. If not
supplied, it will default to getObjectFileInterface from ObjectFileInterface.h.
To enable testing a `-hidden-l<x>` option is added to the llvm-jitlink tool.
This allows archives to be loaded with all contained symbol visibilities demoted
to hidden.
The ObjectLinkingLayer::setOverrideObjectFlagsWithResponsibilityFlags method is
(belatedly) hooked up, and enabled in llvm-jitlink when `-hidden-l<x>` is used
so that the demotion is also applied at symbol resolution time (avoiding any
"mismatched symbol flags" crashes).
MaterializationUnit::Interface holds the values that make up the interface
(for ORC's purposes) of a materialization unit: the symbol flags map and
initializer symbol.
Having a type for this will make functions that build materializer interfaces
more readable and maintainable.
We were adding all defined weak symbols to the materialization
responsibility, but local symbols will not be in the symbol table, so it
failed to materialize due to the "missing" symbol.
Local weak symbols come up in practice when using `ld -r` with a hidden
weak symbol.

Adds explicit narrowing casts to JITLinkMemoryManager.cpp.
Honors -slab-address option in llvm-jitlink.cpp, which was accidentally
dropped in the refactor.
This effectively reverts commit 6641d29b70.
This commit substantially refactors the JITLinkMemoryManager API to: (1) add
asynchronous versions of key operations, (2) give memory manager implementations
full control over link graph address layout, (3) enable more efficient tracking
of allocated memory, and (4) support "allocation actions" and finalize-lifetime
memory.
Together these changes provide a more usable API, and enable more powerful and
efficient memory manager implementations.
To support these changes the JITLinkMemoryManager::Allocation inner class has
been split into two new classes: InFlightAllocation, and FinalizedAllocation.
The allocate method returns an InFlightAllocation that tracks memory (both
working and executor memory) prior to finalization. The finalize method returns
a FinalizedAllocation object, and the InFlightAllocation is discarded. Breaking
Allocation into InFlightAllocation and FinalizedAllocation allows
InFlightAllocation subclassses to be written more naturally, and FinalizedAlloc
to be implemented and used efficiently (see (3) below).
In addition to the memory manager changes this commit also introduces a new
MemProt type to represent memory protections (MemProt replaces use of
sys::Memory::ProtectionFlags in JITLink), and a new MemDeallocPolicy type that
can be used to indicate when a section should be deallocated (see (4) below).
Plugin/pass writers who were using sys::Memory::ProtectionFlags will have to
switch to MemProt -- this should be straightworward. Clients with out-of-tree
memory managers will need to update their implementations. Clients using
in-tree memory managers should mostly be able to ignore it.
Major features:
(1) More asynchrony:
The allocate and deallocate methods are now asynchronous by default, with
synchronous convenience wrappers supplied. The asynchronous versions allow
clients (including JITLink) to request and deallocate memory without blocking.
(2) Improved control over graph address layout:
Instead of a SegmentRequestMap, JITLinkMemoryManager::allocate now takes a
reference to the LinkGraph to be allocated. The memory manager is responsible
for calculating the memory requirements for the graph, and laying out the graph
(setting working and executor memory addresses) within the allocated memory.
This gives memory managers full control over JIT'd memory layout. For clients
that don't need or want this degree of control the new "BasicLayout" utility can
be used to get a segment-based view of the graph, similar to the one provided by
SegmentRequestMap. Once segment addresses are assigned the BasicLayout::apply
method can be used to automatically lay out the graph.
(3) Efficient tracking of allocated memory.
The FinalizedAlloc type is a wrapper for an ExecutorAddr and requires only
64-bits to store in the controller. The meaning of the address held by the
FinalizedAlloc is left up to the memory manager implementation, but the
FinalizedAlloc type enforces a requirement that deallocate be called on any
non-default values prior to destruction. The deallocate method takes a
vector<FinalizedAlloc>, allowing for bulk deallocation of many allocations in a
single call.
Memory manager implementations will typically store the address of some
allocation metadata in the executor in the FinalizedAlloc, as holding this
metadata in the executor is often cheaper and may allow for clean deallocation
even in failure cases where the connection with the controller is lost.
(4) Support for "allocation actions" and finalize-lifetime memory.
Allocation actions are pairs (finalize_act, deallocate_act) of JITTargetAddress
triples (fn, arg_buffer_addr, arg_buffer_size), that can be attached to a
finalize request. At finalization time, after memory protections have been
applied, each of the "finalize_act" elements will be called in order (skipping
any elements whose fn value is zero) as
((char*(*)(const char *, size_t))fn)((const char *)arg_buffer_addr,
(size_t)arg_buffer_size);
At deallocation time the deallocate elements will be run in reverse order (again
skipping any elements where fn is zero).
The returned char * should be null to indicate success, or a non-null
heap-allocated string error message to indicate failure.
These actions allow finalization and deallocation to be extended to include
operations like registering and deregistering eh-frames, TLS sections,
initializer and deinitializers, and language metadata sections. Previously these
operations required separate callWrapper invocations. Compared to callWrapper
invocations, actions require no extra IPC/RPC, reducing costs and eliminating
a potential source of errors.
Finalize lifetime memory can be used to support finalize actions: Sections with
finalize lifetime should be destroyed by memory managers immediately after
finalization actions have been run. Finalize memory can be used to support
finalize actions (e.g. with extra-metadata, or synthesized finalize actions)
without incurring permanent memory overhead.
This change adds support to ORCv2 and the Orc runtime library for static
initializers, C++ static destructors, and exception handler registration for
ELF-based platforms, at present Linux and FreeBSD on x86_64. It is based on the
MachO platform and runtime support introduced in bb5f97e3ad.

Wrapper function call and dispatch handler helpers are moved to
ExecutionSession, and existing EPC-based tools are re-written to take an
ExecutionSession argument instead.
Requiring an ExecutorProcessControl instance simplifies existing EPC based
utilities (which only need to take an ES now), and should encourage more
utilities to use the EPC interface. It also simplifies process termination,
since the session can automatically call ExecutorProcessControl::disconnect
(previously this had to be done manually, and carefully ordered with the
rest of JIT tear-down to work correctly).
At most these use the StringRef/Twine wrappers and don't have any implicit uses of std::string.
Move the include down to any cpp implementation where std::string is actually used.
The computeNamedSymbolDependencies and computeLocalDeps methods on
ObjectLinkingLayerJITLinkContext are responsible for computing, for each symbol
in the current MaterializationResponsibility, the set of non-locally-scoped
symbols that are depended on. To calculate this we have to consider the effect
of chains of dependence through locally scoped symbols in the LinkGraph. E.g.
.text
.globl foo
foo:
callq bar ## foo depneds on external 'bar'
movq Ltmp1(%rip), %rcx ## foo depends on locally scoped 'Ltmp1'
addl (%rcx), %eax
retq
.data
Ltmp1:
.quad x ## Ltmp1 depends on external 'x'
In this example symbol 'foo' depends directly on 'bar', and indirectly on 'x'
via 'Ltmp1', which is locally scoped.
Performance of the existing implementations appears to have been mediocre:
Based on flame graphs posted by @drmeister (in #jit on the LLVM discord server)
the computeLocalDeps function was taking up a substantial amount of time when
starting up Clasp (https://github.com/clasp-developers/clasp).
This commit attempts to address the performance problems in three ways:
1. Using jitlink::Blocks instead of jitlink::Symbols as the nodes of the
dependencies-introduced-by-locally-scoped-symbols graph.
Using either Blocks or Symbols as nodes provides the same information, but since
there may be more than one locally scoped symbol per block the block-based
version of the dependence graph should always be a subgraph of the Symbol-based
version, and so faster to operate on.
2. Improved worklist management.
The older version of computeLocalDeps used a fixed worklist containing all
nodes, and iterated over this list propagating dependencies until no further
changes were required. The worklist was not sorted into a useful order before
the loop started.
The new version uses a variable work-stack, visiting nodes in DFS order and
only adding nodes when there is meaningful work to do on them.
Compared to the old version the new version avoids revisiting nodes which
haven't changed, and I suspect it converges more quickly (due to the DFS
ordering).
3. Laziness and caching.
Mappings of...
jitlink::Symbol* -> Interned Name (as SymbolStringPtr)
jitlink::Block* -> Immediate dependencies (as SymbolNameSet)
jitlink::Block* -> Transitive dependencies (as SymbolNameSet)
are all built lazily and cached while running computeNamedSymbolDependencies.
According to @drmeister these changes reduced Clasp startup time in his test
setup (averaged over a handful of starts) from 4.8 to 2.8 seconds (with
ORC/JITLink linking ~11,000 object files in that time), which seems like
enough to justify switching to the new algorithm in the absence of any other
perf numbers.
This is separate from (but builds on) the support added in ec6b71df70 for
emitting LinkGraphs in the context of an active materialization. This commit
makes LinkGraphs a first-class data structure with features equivalent to
object files within ObjectLinkingLayer.
In EHFrameRegistrationPlugin::notifyTransferringResources if SrcKey had
eh-frames associated but DstKey did not we would create a new entry for DskKey,
invalidating the iterator for SrcKey in the process. This commit fixes that by
removing SrcKey first in this case.
This makes the target triple, graph name, and full graph content available
when making decisions about how to populate the linker pass pipeline.
Also updates the LLJITWithObjectLinkingLayerPlugin example to show more
API use, including use of the API changes in this patch.
Add a new ObjectLinkingLayer plugin `DebugObjectManagerPlugin` and infrastructure to handle creation of `DebugObject`s as well as their registration in OrcTargetProcess. The current implementation only covers ELF on x86-64, but the infrastructure is not limited to that.
The journey starts with a new `LinkGraph` / `JITLinkContext` pair being created for a `MaterializationResponsibility` in ORC's `ObjectLinkingLayer`. It sends a `notifyMaterializing()` notification, which is forwarded to all registered plugins. The `DebugObjectManagerPlugin` aims to create a `DebugObject` form the provided target triple and object buffer. (Future implementations might create `DebugObject`s from a `LinkGraph` in other ways.) On success it will track it as the pending `DebugObject` for the `MaterializationResponsibility`.
This patch only implements the `ELFDebugObject` for `x86-64` targets. It follows the RuntimeDyld approach for debug object setup: it captures a copy of the input object, parses all section headers and prepares to patch their load-address fields with their final addresses in target memory. It instructs the plugin to report the section load-addresses once they are available. The plugin overrides `modifyPassConfig()` and installs a JITLink post-allocation pass to capture them.
Once JITLink emitted the finalized executable, the plugin emits and registers the `DebugObject`. For emission it requests a new `JITLinkMemoryManager::Allocation` with a single read-only segment, copies the object with patched section load-addresses over to working memory and triggers finalization to target memory. For registration, it notifies the `DebugObjectRegistrar` provided in the constructor and stores the previously pending`DebugObject` as registered for the corresponding MaterializationResponsibility.
The `DebugObjectRegistrar` registers the `DebugObject` with the target process. `llvm-jitlink` uses the `TPCDebugObjectRegistrar`, which calls `llvm_orc_registerJITLoaderGDBWrapper()` in the target process via `TargetProcessControl` to emit a `jit_code_entry` compatible with the GDB JIT interface [1]. So far the implementation only supports registration and no removal. It appears to me that it wouldn't raise any new design questions, so I left this as an addition for the near future.

So far we had no way to distinguish between JITLink and RuntimeDyld in lli. Instead, we used implicit knowledge that RuntimeDyld would be used for linking ELF. In order to get D97337 to work with lli though, we have to move on and allow JITLink for ELF. This patch uses extensible RTTI to allow external clients to add their own layers without touching the LLVM sources.

Compilers may insert new definitions during compilation, E.g. EH personality
function pointers, or named constant pool entries. This commit causes
ObjectLinkingLayer to attempt to claim responsibility for all weak definitions
in objects as they're linked. This is always safe (first claimant for each
symbol is granted responsibility, subsequent claims are rejected without error)
and prevents compiler-injected symbols from being dead-stripped (which they
will be if they remain unclaimed by anyone).
This change was motivated by errors seen by an out-of-tree client while testing
eh-frame support in JITLink ELF/x86-64: IR containing exceptions didn't define
DW.ref.__gxx_personality_v0 (since it's added by CodeGen), and this caused
DW.ref.__gxx_personality_v0 to be dead-stripped leading to linker failures.
No test case yet: We won't have a way to test in-tree until we enable JITLink
for lli on Linux.
Separates link graph creation from linking. This allows raw LinkGraphs to be
created and passed to a link. ObjectLinkingLayer is updated to support emission
of raw LinkGraphs in addition to object buffers.
Raw LinkGraphs can be created by in-memory compilers to bypass object encoding /
decoding (though this prevents caching, as LinkGraphs have do not have an
on-disk representation), and by utility code to add programatically generated
data structures to the JIT target process.
JITLinkDylib represents a target dylib for a JITLink link. By representing this
explicitly we can:
- Enable JITLinkMemoryManagers to manage allocations on a per-dylib basis
(e.g by maintaining a seperate allocation pool for each JITLinkDylib).
- Enable new features and diagnostics that require information about the
target dylib (not implemented in this patch).
This patch introduces new APIs to support resource tracking and removal in Orc.
It is intended as a thread-safe generalization of the removeModule concept from
OrcV1.
Clients can now create ResourceTracker objects (using
JITDylib::createResourceTracker) to track resources for each MaterializationUnit
(code, data, aliases, absolute symbols, etc.) added to the JIT. Every
MaterializationUnit will be associated with a ResourceTracker, and
ResourceTrackers can be re-used for multiple MaterializationUnits. Each JITDylib
has a default ResourceTracker that will be used for MaterializationUnits added
to that JITDylib if no ResourceTracker is explicitly specified.
Two operations can be performed on ResourceTrackers: transferTo and remove. The
transferTo operation transfers tracking of the resources to a different
ResourceTracker object, allowing ResourceTrackers to be merged to reduce
administrative overhead (the source tracker is invalidated in the process). The
remove operation removes all resources associated with a ResourceTracker,
including any symbols defined by MaterializationUnits associated with the
tracker, and also invalidates the tracker. These operations are thread safe, and
should work regardless of the the state of the MaterializationUnits. In the case
of resource transfer any existing resources associated with the source tracker
will be transferred to the destination tracker, and all future resources for
those units will be automatically associated with the destination tracker. In
the case of resource removal all already-allocated resources will be
deallocated, any if any program representations associated with the tracker have
not been compiled yet they will be destroyed. If any program representations are
currently being compiled then they will be prevented from completing: their
MaterializationResponsibility will return errors on any attempt to update the
JIT state.
Clients (usually Layer writers) wishing to track resources can implement the
ResourceManager API to receive notifications when ResourceTrackers are
transferred or removed. The MaterializationResponsibility::withResourceKeyDo
method can be used to create associations between the key for a ResourceTracker
and an allocated resource in a thread-safe way.
RTDyldObjectLinkingLayer and ObjectLinkingLayer are updated to use the
ResourceManager API to enable tracking and removal of memory allocated by the
JIT linker.
The new JITDylib::clear method can be used to trigger removal of every
ResourceTracker associated with the JITDylib (note that this will only
remove resources for the JITDylib, it does not run static destructors).
This patch includes unit tests showing basic usage. A follow-up patch will
update the Kaleidoscope and BuildingAJIT tutorial series to OrcV2 and will
use this API to release code associated with anonymous expressions.
Making MaterializationResponsibility instances immovable allows their
associated VModuleKeys to be updated by the ExecutionSession while the
responsibility is still in-flight. This will be used in the upcoming
removable code feature to enable safe merging of resource keys even if
there are active compiles using the keys being merged.
This allows clients to detect invalid transformations applied by JITLink passes
(e.g. inserting or removing symbols in unexpected ways) and terminate linking
with an error.
This change is used to simplify the error propagation logic in
ObjectLinkingLayer.
This patch makes ownership of the JITLinkMemoryManager by ObjectLinkingLayer
optional: the layer can still own the memory manager but no longer has to.
Evevntually we want to move to a state where ObjectLinkingLayer never owns its
memory manager. For now allowing optional ownership makes it easier to develop
classes that can dynamically use either RTDyldObjectLinkingLayer, which owns
its memory managers, or ObjectLinkingLayer (e.g. LLJIT).
Refering to the link order of a dylib better matches the terminology used in
static compilation. As upcoming patches will increase the number of places where
link order matters (for example when closing JITDylibs) it's better to get this
name change out of the way early.
This flag can be used to mark a symbol as existing only for the purpose of
enabling materialization. Such a symbol can be looked up to trigger
materialization with the lookup returning only once materialization is
complete. Symbols with this flag will never resolve however (to avoid
permanently polluting the symbol table), and should only be looked up using
the SymbolLookupFlags::WeaklyReferencedSymbol flag. The primary use case for
this flag is initialization symbols.
These may be accessed from multiple threads if concurrent materialization is
enabled in ORC.
Testcase coming in a follow-up patch that enables eh-frame registration for
LLJIT.
This patch adds new errors and error checking to the ObjectLinkingLayer to
catch cases where a compiled or loaded object either:
(1) Contains definitions not covered by its responsibility set, or
(2) Is missing definitions that are covered by its responsibility set.
Proir to this patch providing the correct set of definitions was treated as
an API contract requirement, however this requires that the client be confident
in the correctness of the whole compiler / object-cache pipeline and results
in difficult-to-debug assertions upon failure. Treating this as a recoverable
error results in clearer diagnostics.
The performance overhead of this check is one comparison of densemap keys
(symbol string pointers) per linking object, which is minimal. If this overhead
ever becomes a problem we can add the check under a flag that can be turned off
if the client fully trusts the rest of the pipeline.
Initializers and deinitializers are used to implement C++ static constructors
and destructors, runtime registration for some languages (e.g. with the
Objective-C runtime for Objective-C/C++ code) and other tasks that would
typically be performed when a shared-object/dylib is loaded or unloaded by a
statically compiled program.
MCJIT and ORC have historically provided limited support for discovering and
running initializers/deinitializers by scanning the llvm.global_ctors and
llvm.global_dtors variables and recording the functions to be run. This approach
suffers from several drawbacks: (1) It only works for IR inputs, not for object
files (including cached JIT'd objects). (2) It only works for initializers
described by llvm.global_ctors and llvm.global_dtors, however not all
initializers are described in this way (Objective-C, for example, describes
initializers via specially named metadata sections). (3) To make the
initializer/deinitializer functions described by llvm.global_ctors and
llvm.global_dtors searchable they must be promoted to extern linkage, polluting
the JIT symbol table (extra care must be taken to ensure this promotion does
not result in symbol name clashes).
This patch introduces several interdependent changes to ORCv2 to support the
construction of new initialization schemes, and includes an implementation of a
backwards-compatible llvm.global_ctor/llvm.global_dtor scanning scheme, and a
MachO specific scheme that handles Objective-C runtime registration (if the
Objective-C runtime is available) enabling execution of LLVM IR compiled from
Objective-C and Swift.
The major changes included in this patch are:
(1) The MaterializationUnit and MaterializationResponsibility classes are
extended to describe an optional "initializer" symbol for the module (see the
getInitializerSymbol method on each class). The presence or absence of this
symbol indicates whether the module contains any initializers or
deinitializers. The initializer symbol otherwise behaves like any other:
searching for it triggers materialization.
(2) A new Platform interface is introduced in llvm/ExecutionEngine/Orc/Core.h
which provides the following callback interface:
- Error setupJITDylib(JITDylib &JD): Can be used to install standard symbols
in JITDylibs upon creation. E.g. __dso_handle.
- Error notifyAdding(JITDylib &JD, const MaterializationUnit &MU): Generally
used to record initializer symbols.
- Error notifyRemoving(JITDylib &JD, VModuleKey K): Used to notify a platform
that a module is being removed.
Platform implementations can use these callbacks to track outstanding
initializers and implement a platform-specific approach for executing them. For
example, the MachOPlatform installs a plugin in the JIT linker to scan for both
__mod_inits sections (for C++ static constructors) and ObjC metadata sections.
If discovered, these are processed in the usual platform order: Objective-C
registration is carried out first, then static initializers are executed,
ensuring that calls to Objective-C from static initializers will be safe.
This patch updates LLJIT to use the new scheme for initialization. Two
LLJIT::PlatformSupport classes are implemented: A GenericIR platform and a MachO
platform. The GenericIR platform implements a modified version of the previous
llvm.global-ctor scraping scheme to provide support for Windows and
Linux. LLJIT's MachO platform uses the MachOPlatform class to provide MachO
specific initialization as described above.

ObjectLinkingLayer was not correctly propagating dependencies through local
symbols within an object. This could cause symbol lookup to return before a
searched-for symbol is ready if the following conditions are met:
(1) The definition of the symbol being searched for transitively depends on a
local symbol within the same object, and that local symbol in turn
transitively depends on an external symbol provided by some other module
in the JIT.
(2) Concurrent compilation is enabled.
(3) Thread scheduling causes the lookup of the searched-for symbol to return
before all transitive dependencies of the looked-up symbol are emitted.
This bug was found by inspection and has not been observed in practice.
A jitlink test case has been added to verify that symbol dependencies are
correctly propagated through local symbol definitions.
This relieves ObjectLinkingLayer clients of the responsibility of holding the
memory manager. This makes it easier to select between RTDyldObjectLinkingLayer
(which already owned its memory manager factory) and ObjectLinkingLayer at
runtime as clients aren't required to hold a jitlink::MemoryManager field just
in case ObjectLinkingLayer is selected.
libraries.
This patch substantially updates ORCv2's lookup API in order to support weak
references, and to better support static archives. Key changes:
-- Each symbol being looked for is now associated with a SymbolLookupFlags
value. If the associated value is SymbolLookupFlags::RequiredSymbol then
the symbol must be defined in one of the JITDylibs being searched (or be
able to be generated in one of these JITDylibs via an attached definition
generator) or the lookup will fail with an error. If the associated value is
SymbolLookupFlags::WeaklyReferencedSymbol then the symbol is permitted to be
undefined, in which case it will simply not appear in the resulting
SymbolMap if the rest of the lookup succeeds.
Since lookup now requires these flags for each symbol, the lookup method now
takes an instance of a new SymbolLookupSet type rather than a SymbolNameSet.
SymbolLookupSet is a vector-backed set of (name, flags) pairs. Clients are
responsible for ensuring that the set property (i.e. unique elements) holds,
though this is usually simple and SymbolLookupSet provides convenience
methods to support this.
-- Lookups now have an associated LookupKind value, which is either
LookupKind::Static or LookupKind::DLSym. Definition generators can inspect
the lookup kind when determining whether or not to generate new definitions.
The StaticLibraryDefinitionGenerator is updated to only pull in new objects
from the archive if the lookup kind is Static. This allows lookup to be
re-used to emulate dlsym for JIT'd symbols without pulling in new objects
from archives (which would not happen in a normal dlsym call).
-- JITLink is updated to allow externals to be assigned weak linkage, and
weak externals now use the SymbolLookupFlags::WeaklyReferencedSymbol value
for lookups. Unresolved weak references will be assigned the default value of
zero.
Since this patch was modifying the lookup API anyway, it alo replaces all of the
"MatchNonExported" boolean arguments with a "JITDylibLookupFlags" enum for
readability. If a JITDylib's associated value is
JITDylibLookupFlags::MatchExportedSymbolsOnly then the lookup will only
match against exported (non-hidden) symbols in that JITDylib. If a JITDylib's
associated value is JITDylibLookupFlags::MatchAllSymbols then the lookup will
match against any symbol defined in the JITDylib.
RTDyldObjectLinkingLayer allowed clients to register a NotifyEmitted function to
reclaim ownership of object buffers once they had been linked. This patch adds
similar functionality to ObjectLinkingLayer: Clients can now optionally call the
ObjectLinkingLayer::setReturnObjectBuffer method to register a function that
will be called when discarding object buffers. If set, this function will be
called to return ownership of the object regardless of whether the link
succeeded or failed.
Use cases for this function include debug dumping (it provides a way to dump
all objects linked into JIT'd code) and object re-use (e.g. storing an
object in a cache).

In the Atom model the symbols, content and relocations of a relocatable object
file are represented as a graph of atoms, where each Atom represents a
contiguous block of content with a single name (or no name at all if the
content is anonymous), and where edges between Atoms represent relocations.
If more than one symbol is associated with a contiguous block of content then
the content is broken into multiple atoms and layout constraints (represented by
edges) are introduced to ensure that the content remains effectively contiguous.
These layout constraints must be kept in mind when examining the content
associated with a symbol (it may be spread over multiple atoms) or when applying
certain relocation types (e.g. MachO subtractors).
This patch replaces the Atom model in JITLink with a blocks-and-symbols model.
The blocks-and-symbols model represents relocatable object files as bipartite
graphs, with one set of nodes representing contiguous content (Blocks) and
another representing named or anonymous locations (Symbols) within a Block.
Relocations are represented as edges from Blocks to Symbols. This scheme
removes layout constraints (simplifying handling of MachO alt-entry symbols,
and hopefully ELF sections at some point in the future) and simplifies some
relocation logic.

When symbols are failed (via MaterializationResponsibility::failMaterialization)
any symbols depending on them will now be moved to an error state. Attempting
to resolve or emit a symbol in the error state (via the notifyResolved or
notifyEmitted methods on MaterializationResponsibility) will result in an error.
If notifyResolved or notifyEmitted return an error due to failure of a
dependence then the caller should log or discard the error and call
failMaterialization to propagate the failure to any queries waiting on the
symbols being resolved/emitted (plus their dependencies).
