[WebAssembly] Implement thread-local storage (local-exec model)
Summary: Thread local variables are placed inside a `.tdata` segment. Their symbols are offsets from the start of the segment. The address of a thread local variable is computed as `__tls_base` + the offset from the start of the segment. `.tdata` segment is a passive segment and `memory.init` is used once per thread to initialize the thread local storage. `__tls_base` is a wasm global. Since each thread has its own wasm instance, it is effectively thread local. Currently, `__tls_base` must be initialized at thread startup, and so cannot be used with dynamic libraries. `__tls_base` is to be initialized with a new linker-synthesized function, `__wasm_init_tls`, which takes as an argument a block of memory to use as the storage for thread locals. It then initializes the block of memory and sets `__tls_base`. As `__wasm_init_tls` will handle the memory initialization, the memory does not have to be zeroed. To help allocating memory for thread-local storage, a new compiler intrinsic is introduced: `__builtin_wasm_tls_size()`. This instrinsic function returns the size of the thread-local storage for the current function. The expected usage is to run something like the following upon thread startup: __wasm_init_tls(malloc(__builtin_wasm_tls_size())); Reviewers: tlively, aheejin, kripken, sbc100 Subscribers: dschuff, jgravelle-google, hiraditya, sunfish, jfb, cfe-commits, llvm-commits Tags: #clang, #llvm Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D64537 llvm-svn: 366272
