Flatbuffers: do not canonicalize empty strings to null string (#23039) This was causing assertion failures in flatbuffers serialization when serializing debug info with a Name location that was empty. ``` iree-compile: iree/third_party/flatcc/src/runtime/builder.c:1492: flatcc_builder_ref_t _create_offset_vector_direct(flatcc_builder_t *, flatcc_builder_ref_t *, size_t, const flatbuffers_utype_t *): Assertion `types[i] == 0' failed. Stack dump: #12 0x00007fca8696f35b _create_offset_vector_direct /tmp/xx/iree/third_party/flatcc/src/runtime/builder.c:1498:12 #13 0x00007fca8696fcce flatcc_builder_create_union_vector_direct /tmp/xx/iree/third_party/flatcc/src/runtime/builder.c:1618:29 #14 0x00007fca8696fcce flatcc_builder_create_union_vector /tmp/xx/iree/third_party/flatcc/src/runtime/builder.c:1606:13 #15 0x00007fca817ffcfe iree_vm_LocationTypeDef_vec_create(flatcc_builder*, flatcc_builder_union_ref const*, unsigned long) /tmp/xx/iree-build/runtime/src/iree/schemas/bytecode_module_def_builder.h:299:1 #16 0x00007fca817ffcfe mlir::iree_compiler::IREE::VM::LocationTable::finish() /tmp/xx/iree/compiler/src/iree/compiler/Dialect/VM/Target/Bytecode/DebugDatabaseBuilder.cpp:99:12 #17 0x00007fca817ffcfe mlir::iree_compiler::IREE::VM::DebugDatabaseBuilder::build(mlir::iree_compiler::FlatbufferBuilder&) /tmp/xx/iree/compiler/src/iree/compiler/Dialect/VM/Target/Bytecode/DebugDatabaseBuilder.cpp:131:41 ``` The actual assertion message is somehow not printed above, but is describes the issue more explicitly: https://github.com/dvidelabs/flatcc/blob/e3e44836c5f625b5532586ddce895f8b5e36a212/src/runtime/builder.c#L1495 ```c++ if (vec[i] != 0) { ... } else { if (types) { check(types[i] == 0, "union vector cannot have null element without type NONE"); ``` So the summary is that inside a union, each value must be either non-null or NONE. A null-string is thus illegal in an union. Signed-off-by: Benoit Jacob <jacob.benoit.1@gmail.com>
IREE (Intermediate Representation Execution Environment, pronounced as “eerie”) is an MLIR-based end-to-end compiler and runtime that lowers Machine Learning (ML) models to a unified IR that scales up to meet the needs of the datacenter and down to satisfy the constraints and special considerations of mobile and edge deployments.
