--------------------------------------
Assignee: Daniel Becker
> Put *-ir.cc files into their own libraries to avoid extra recompilation
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: IMPALA-11623
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-11623
> Project: IMPALA
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Infrastructure
> Affects Versions: Impala 4.2.0
> Reporter: Joe McDonnell
> Assignee: Daniel Becker
> Priority: Major
>
> It is desirable to be able to iterate quickly by running "make -j impalad"
> while modifying a file. Currently, modifying most files incurs a rebuild of
> the LLVM IR, which is a slow serial step. For example:
>
> {noformat}
> $ touch be/src/runtime/coordinator.cc
> $ make -j impalad
> ...
> [ 98%] Generating ../../../llvm-ir/impala.bc
> [ 98%] Generating ../../../llvm-ir/impala-legacy-avx.bc
> [ 98%] Generating ../../generated-sources/impala-ir/impala-ir.cc
> [ 98%] Generating ../../generated-sources/impala-ir/impala-ir-legacy-avx.cc
> ...{noformat}
> This can add several seconds to an incremental build. This step happens for
> files that do not actually impact the LLVM IR, so there are ways to avoid
> this.
> The reason that LLVM IR is rebuilt is because it has a dependencies on Exec,
> Exprs, Runtime, Udf, Util, and other libraries:
>
> {noformat}
> add_custom_command(
> OUTPUT ${IR_OUTPUT_FILE}
> COMMAND ${LLVM_CLANG_EXECUTABLE} ${CLANG_IR_CXX_FLAGS}
> ${PLATFORM_SPECIFIC_FLAGS}
> ${CLANG_INCLUDE_FLAGS} ${IR_INPUT_FILES} -o ${IR_TMP_OUTPUT_FILE}
> COMMAND ${LLVM_OPT_EXECUTABLE} ${LLVM_OPT_IR_FLAGS} < ${IR_TMP_OUTPUT_FILE}
> > ${IR_OUTPUT_FILE}
> COMMAND rm ${IR_TMP_OUTPUT_FILE}
> DEPENDS Exec ExecAvro ExecKudu Exprs Runtime Udf Util ${IR_INPUT_FILES}
> ){noformat}
> From a correctness perspective, the LLVM IR only cares about things that
> impact the content of the *-ir.cc files, because impala-ir.cc includes every
> *-ir.cc file. That list of libraries is a superset of what is needed.
> If the *-ir.cc files were split off into their own libraries (i.e. ExecIr
> rather than Exec), then this target would only depend on the ExecIr rather
> than the larger Exec. This would reduce the number of files that would cause
> LLVM IR to be rebuilt. That should reduce the runtime of an incremental "make
> -j impalad" for quite a few C++ files.
