proc_macro/bridge: stop using a remote object handle for proc_macro Punct and Group #98188

mystor · 2022-06-17T04:32:42Z

This is the third part of #86822, split off as requested in #86822 (review). This patch transforms the Punct and Group types into structs serialized over IPC rather than handles, making them more efficient to create and manipulate from within proc-macros.

proc_macro/bridge: cache static spans in proc_macro's client thread-local state This is the second part of rust-lang#86822, split off as requested in rust-lang#86822 (review). This patch removes the RPC calls required for the very common operations of `Span::call_site()`, `Span::def_site()` and `Span::mixed_site()`. Some notes: This part is one of the ones I don't love as a final solution from a design standpoint, because I don't like how the spans are serialized immediately at macro invocation. I think a more elegant solution might've been to reserve special IDs for `call_site`, `def_site`, and `mixed_site` at compile time (either starting at 1 or from `u32::MAX`) and making reading a Span handle automatically map these IDs to the relevant values, rather than doing extra serialization. This would also have an advantage for potential future work to allow `proc_macro` to operate more independently from the compiler (e.g. to reduce the necessity of `proc-macro2`), as methods like `Span::call_site()` could be made to function without access to the compiler backend. That was unfortunately tricky to do at the time, as this was the first part I wrote of the patches. After the later part (rust-lang#98188, rust-lang#98189), the other uses of `InternedStore` are removed meaning that a custom serialization strategy for `Span` is easier to implement. If we want to go that path, we'll still need the majority of the work to split the bridge object and introduce the `Context` trait for free methods, and it will be easier to do after `Span` is the only user of `InternedStore` (after rust-lang#98189).

This greatly reduces round-trips to fetch relevant extra information about the token in proc macro code, and avoids RPC messages to create Punct tokens.

LGTM, mostly nits as usual (reminder not to force push until perf run is finished, I think bors gets confused easily).

eddyb · 2022-06-27T10:51:22Z

library/proc_macro/src/lib.rs

+        const LEGAL_CHARS: &[char] = &[
+            '=', '<', '>', '!', '~', '+', '-', '*', '/', '%', '^', '&', '|', '@', '.', ',', ';',
+            ':', '#', '$', '?', '\'',
+        ];
+        if !LEGAL_CHARS.contains(&ch) {
+            panic!("unsupported character `{:?}`", ch);
+        }


Shouldn't something like this be a match? That way, LLVM can optimize it to some arithmetic and bit twiddling?

(Oops, just checked and this is what it takes: https://godbolt.org/z/vP13eKjsW - I guess that's pretty nasty)

If you are going to use an array search, can you do an ASCII check first and make it a bytestring literal? So that it at least can hit some kind of memchr specialization or w/e.

Sure, that's an easy change. The current code is literally verbatim cut-pasted from the code which used to be in proc_macro_server.rs:

rust/compiler/rustc_expand/src/proc_macro_server.rs

Lines 301 to 307 in bd2e51a

const LEGAL_CHARS: &[char] = &[

'=', '<', '>', '!', '~', '+', '-', '*', '/', '%', '^', '&', '|', '@', '.', ',', ';',

':', '#', '$', '?', '\'',

];

if !LEGAL_CHARS.contains(&ch) {

panic!("unsupported character `{:?}`", ch)

}

.

FWIW the current code appears to actually compile to a somewhat efficient jump table (https://godbolt.org/z/P9d5366YT), and sloppily switching it to use &[u8] instead does appear to make it use memchr (https://godbolt.org/z/EfvaaMbbh)

The existing codegen seems like the nicest of the options (I wouldn't be too surprised if it performs better than the memchr variant), so I'm inclined to stick with it.

+                        trees.extend(Self::from_internal((stream, rustc)));


If this Self::from_internal didn't go through a weird method trait, I would definitely suggest passing &mut Vec here (would help with any future experiments like using SmallVec<[_; 32]> instead of Vec, as there would be no expensive moves).

FWIW I'm not sure this codepath is worth optimizing given it's only for that pretty-printing compatibility hack, meaning it only impacts enums with the name ProceduralMasqueradeDummyType.

Fair, though in the SmallVec<[_; 32]> case, I'm worried the rarely-used codepath would still cause worse cache behavior for the whole function.

Unbreak stage1 tests via ignore-stage1 in `proc-macro/invalid-punct-ident-1.rs`. rust-lang#98188 broke `./x.py test --stage 1` (which I thought we ran in PR CI, cc `@rust-lang/infra)` i.e. the default `./x.py test` in dev checkouts, as the panic in `src/test/ui/proc-macro/invalid-punct-ident-1.rs` moved from the server (`rustc`) to the client (proc macro), and that means it's now affected by rust-lang#59998. I made the test look like `src/test/ui-fulldeps/issue-76270-panic-in-libproc-macro.rs` tho I'm a bit confused why that one is in `src/test/ui-fulldeps`, it should still work in `src/test/ui`, no? (cc `@Aaron1011)`

…idge This is done by having the crossbeam dependency inserted into the proc_macro server code from the server side, to avoid adding a dependency to proc_macro. In addition, this introduces a -Z command-line option which will switch rustc to run proc-macros using this cross-thread executor. With the changes to the bridge in rust-lang#98186, rust-lang#98187, rust-lang#98188 and rust-lang#98189, the performance of the executor should be much closer to same-thread execution. In local testing, the crossbeam executor was substantially more performant than either of the two existing CrossThread strategies, so they have been removed to keep things simple.
