9dcacebd4c [ValueTracking] Improve isKnownNonNaN() to recognize zero splats.
isKnownNonNaN() could not recognize a zero splat because that is a
ConstantAggregateZero which is-a ConstantData but not a ConstantDataVector.

Patch makes a ConstantAggregateZero return true.

cb7a62d110 [KnownBits] Introduce anyext instead of passing a flag into zext
Summary:
This was a very odd API, where you had to pass a flag into a zext
function to say whether the extended bits really were zero or not. All
callers passed in a literal true or false.

I think it's much clearer to make the function name reflect the
operation being performed on the value we're tracking (rather than on
the KnownBits Zero and One fields), so zext means the value is being
zero extended and new function anyext means the value is being extended
with unknown bits.

If we know that a >= b (unsigned), usub.with.overflow(a, b) cannot

This patch adds versions of isImpliedCondition and

7743098c5d [ValueTracking] Add DemandedElts support to computeKnownBits/ComputeNumSignBits (PR36319)
This patch adds initial support for a DemandedElts mask to the internal computeKnownBits/ComputeNumSignBits methods, matching the SelectionDAG and GlobalISel equivalents.

So far only a couple of instructions have been setup to handle the DemandedElts, the remainder still using the existing 'all elements' default. The plan is to extend support as we have test coverage.

6d326a1c6b [PatternMatch] Make m_c_ICmp swap the predicate (PR42801)
This addresses https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42801.
The m_c_ICmp() matcher is changed to provide the swapped predicate
if the operands are swapped.

Existing uses of m_c_ICmp() fall in one of two categories: Working
on equality predicates only, where swapping is irrelevant.
Or performing a manual swap, in which case this patch removes it.

The only exception is the foldICmpWithLowBitMaskedVal() fold, which
does not swap the predicate, and instead reasons about whether
a swap occurred or not for each predicate. Getting the swapped
predicate allows us to merge the logic for pairs of predicates,
instead of duplicating it.

d746d62b1a [ValueTracking] isKnownNonZero() should take non-null-ness assumptions into consideration (PR43267)
Summary:
It is pretty common to assume that something is not zero.
Even optimizer itself sometimes emits such assumptions
(e.g. `addAssumeNonNull()` in `PromoteMemoryToRegister.cpp`).

But we currently don't deal with such assumptions :)
The only way `isKnownNonZero()` handles assumptions is
by calling `computeKnownBits()` which calls `computeKnownBitsFromAssume()`.
But `x != 0` does not tell us anything about set bits,
it only says that there are *some* set bits.
So naturally, `KnownBits` does not get populated,
and we fail to make use of this assumption.

I propose to deal with this special case by special-casing it
via adding a `isKnownNonZeroFromAssume()` that returns boolean
when there is an applicable assumption.

While there, we also deal with other predicates,
mainly if the comparison is with constant.

Fixes [[ https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43267 | PR43267 ]].

3540c93924 [ValueTracking] isValidAssumeForContext(): CxtI itself also must transfer execution to successor
This is a pretty rare case, when CxtI and assume are
in the same basic block, with assume being located later.

We were already checking that assumption was guaranteed to be
executed, but we omitted CxtI itself from consideration,
and as the test (miscompile) shows, that is incorrect.

74bbf4a42b [IR] Split out target specific intrinsic enums into separate headers
This has two main effects:
- Optimizes debug info size by saving 221.86 MB of obj file size in a
  Windows optimized+debug build of 'all'. This is 3.03% of 7,332.7MB of
  object file size.
- Incremental step towards decoupling target intrinsics.

The enums are still compact, so adding and removing a single
target-specific intrinsic will trigger a rebuild of all of LLVM.
Assigning distinct target id spaces is potential future work.

50ae2e4d25 Replace three "strip & accumulate" implementations with a single one
This patch replaces the three almost identical "strip & accumulate"
implementations for constant pointer offsets with a single one,
combining the respective functionalities. The old interfaces are kept
for now.

4d595bf761 NFC: Pass DataLayout into isBytewiseValue
Summary:
We will need to handle IntToPtr which I will submit in a separate patch as it's
not going to be NFC.

916d5bcc6a OpaquePtr: add Type parameter to Loads analysis API.
This makes the functions in Loads.h require a type to be specified
independently of the pointer Value so that when pointers have no structure
other than address-space, it can still do its job.

Most callers had an obvious memory operation handy to provide this type, but a
SROA and ArgumentPromotion were doing more complicated analysis. They get
updated to merge the properties of the various instructions they were
considering.

6275dfc50e Use "willreturn" in isGuaranteedToTransferExecutionToSuccessor
The `willreturn` function attribute guarantees that a function call will
come back to the call site if the call is also known not to throw.
Therefore, this attribute can be used in
`isGuaranteedToTransferExecutionToSuccessor`.

44429fc183 [LangRef] Clarify poison semantics
I find the current documentation of poison somewhat confusing,
mainly because its use of "undefined behavior" doesn't seem to
align with our usual interpretation (of immediate UB). Especially
the sentence "any instruction that has a dependence on a poison
value has undefined behavior" is very confusing.

Clarify poison semantics by:

 * Replacing the introductory paragraph with the standard rationale
   for having poison values.
 * Spelling out that instructions depending on poison return poison.
 * Spelling out how we go from a poison value to immediate undefined
   behavior and give the two examples we currently use in ValueTracking.
 * Spelling out that side effects depending on poison are UB.
