<div class="WordSection1">
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Hey everyone,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">I felt this question is different from my other question - hope this is okay.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">So - I was playing around with the lookup function of the ExecutionSession and there are some things I don't understand.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">I have a .BC file with a function "?Sampler@@YAXXZ" referencing a value "?_Plansch_test@@3HA" that is not defined in that module itself. I first planed on not providing an address for "?_Plansch_test@@3HA" but wanted
to know the address of "?Sampler@@YAXXZ". So I issued something like that:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"> auto &ES = this->jit->getExecutionSession();<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"> SymbolLookupSet lookupSet;<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"> lookupSet.add("?Sampler@@YAXXZ", llvm::orc::SymbolLookupFlags::WeaklyReferencedSymbol);<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"> ES.lookup({{&jit->getMainJITDylib(), llvm::orc::JITDylibLookupFlags::MatchAllSymbols}}, lookupSet, llvm::orc::LookupKind::Static, llvm::orc::SymbolState::Resolved);<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Even though the "tryToGenerate" function of my DefinitionGenerator returned a "llvm::orc::SymbolsNotFound" for the "?_Plansch_test@@3HA", I got an address for "?Sampler@@YAXXZ". Dumping the "MainJITDylib" I saw, that
the "?Sampler@@YAXXZ" was in an Error state. Which made sense - I guess.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Question 1.)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Is there any way to reset the error state of "?Sampler@@YAXXZ" at this point?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">- After my first call I used the "define" function of the JITDylib to define ?_Plansch_test@@3HA and then I tried calling the lookup function again and again, however I only got the error: "Failed to materialize symbols"
even though "?_Plansch_test@@3HA" was defined now...<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">- Changing the order of the "define" and the "lookup" call works of course, but I'm interested in the case where I don't know the address yet.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Out of curiosity I repeated the previous scenario - but added "?_Plansch_test@@3HA" to the "lookupSet" which changed things drasticly. When executing "lookup" I now get the "llvm::orc::SymbolsNotFound" error from my DefinitionGenerator
and "?Sampler@@YAXXZ" is stuck as a pending query in the MaterializingInfos entries. When I then add a definition for "?_Plansch_test@@3HA" and call "lookup" the second time, it will succeed and give me the addresses. Also I'm able to execute the code now.
This is great! However...<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Question 2.)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Why did the first call to lookup not return the address of "?Sampler@@YAXXZ" like in the first scenario? I expected it would return an address for it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Question 3.)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Can I somehow combine both behaviours? Getting the address for all the symbols (like in scenario 1) while still being able to provide definitions later (like in scenario 2)?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Thank you in advance and kind greetings,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Björn<o:p></o:p></span></p>
