Stemming from #4331, trying to break apart InstallPaths class comments
into three parts:
- Construction semantics, staying in the class comment
- Trying to refer to methods with more detailed documentation.
- Install prefix contents, now on `prefix_`
- Install structure, consolidating on `install_dirs`
For code refactoring, `driver()` and `prefix()` were only used by the
install paths test. Rather than having a comment not to use `prefix()`,
this instead extracts it out to a TestPeer model (which we have
elsewhere with `TypedNodesTestPeer`, thus my choice in approaches).
Because install_paths is not presently validated, and it's resolved
after the `SetWorkingDirForBazel` call, if a relative path is used with
bazel then it would fail silently. This starts making the driver share
install path errors, and starts changing how `//toolchain` launches
`carbon`.
Note the implementation is still brittle and will break with symlinks.
That's something I plan to address as part of busyboxing.
This switches `DCHECK` and `FATAL` as well.
The goal is to reduce the code size impact of these assertions so that
we can keep more of them enabled. Currently, the largest cost I see from
`CHECK` is not the actual check or the cold code itself, but actually
the failure to inline trivial functions due to the presence of the cold
code. This means that our goal isn't to reduce apparent code size in the
final binary but the LLVM IR cost assessed for these routines in the
inliner, which closely correlates with code size but is a bit different.
As discussed in #4283, experimentation shows that a single function call
with a minimal number of arguments is the lowest cost model for these.
This is easily achieved with a format-string API that internally uses
`llvm::formatv`. This PR is essentially the `CHECK` version of #4283.
However, the check macros are substantially harder to make work with
both format strings and streaming because they also take a condition.
Also, unexpectedly, I was very successful at devising a regular
expression based automated rewrite from the streaming to the format
string form with only low 10s of manual fixes. This includes compacting
strings broken up across lines, etc. Given how well that went, I've
prepared this PR which just directly switches to the format string API
and migrate everything to use it.
One nice side-effect is that the format string approach ends up greatly
simplifying the implementation here as well.
This is ... *shockingly* effective. Parsing speeds up by more than 3%
with just this change. And checking speeds up by **8%** with this change
alone:

This removes the directory crawl because bazel doesn't remove files from
execroot when the rule generating them would no longer generate them.
Fixes#4288
From the driver's perspective, `FindPreludeFiles` is closely tied to
`compile`. This makes it difficult to refactor commands without
affecting the test dependencies on `FindPreludeFiles`. `InstallPaths`
seems like a decent home since it is responsible for the install
structure.
I'm switching to an `Error` return to allow callers to choose how to
handle it (e.g., in file tests, we typically don't want the direct error
stream).
Despite this name not being in the runfiles manifest, this works in
Bazel because of how the module and workspace are configured. I should
have realized that as it was used elsewhere as well. This should
consolidate all of our runfiles paths to use the exact same patterns
now. These were the only remaining divergences.
This removes the `data_dir` from the driver favoring the installation
abstraction for the both locating the prelude and linking utilities.
With this, an installed toolchain should also be able to compile and
link Carbon successfully, and the build of the examples should exercise
this path almost exactly. (The only difference is using the driver
`cc_binary` directly rather than relying on the symlink from inside the
install tree.)
The install directory contains the BUILD logic for creating an
installable tree of data files and executables for the toolchain, and
a library to facilitate toolchain code accessing the paths to their data
within this installation.
Then adds an installation of LLD in a synthetic LLVM installation, and
teaches the Clang runner to configure this and use it for linking
instead of the system linker.
Currently, the install paths only really manage access to the LLVM
binaries installed and used by the Clang runner for linking, but
eventually other data files like the prelude and runtime libraries will
be fleshed out as well. There are TODOs for moving more things over here
such as the prelude.
One interesting aspect of this is where to put helpers like parts of
LLVM in our install. This PR suggests nesting those files under
`lib/carbon`. While using a `lib` subdirectory isn't a perfect fit for
the FHS (Filesystem Hierarchy Standard), having a single location where
private data is collected is significantly superior to spreading them
across the system. This also matches similar patterns used by Clang
itself and several other language toolchains and standard libraries.
The install directory also provides a natural place for us to build out
packaging rules to create installable packages in various formats, but
that remains future work.
