argument of the llvm.dbg.declare/llvm.dbg.value intrinsics.
Previously, DIVariable was a variable-length field that has an optional
reference to a Metadata array consisting of a variable number of
complex address expressions. In the case of OpPiece expressions this is
wasting a lot of storage in IR, because when an aggregate type is, e.g.,
SROA'd into all of its n individual members, the IR will contain n copies
of the DIVariable, all alike, only differing in the complex address
reference at the end.
By making the complex address into an extra argument of the
dbg.value/dbg.declare intrinsics, all of the pieces can reference the
same variable and the complex address expressions can be uniqued across
the CU, too.
Down the road, this will allow us to move other flags, such as
"indirection" out of the DIVariable, too.
The new intrinsics look like this:
declare void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata %storage, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
declare void @llvm.dbg.value(metadata %storage, i64 %offset, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
This patch adds a new LLVM-local tag to DIExpressions, so we can detect
and pretty-print DIExpression metadata nodes.
What this patch doesn't do:
This patch does not touch the "Indirect" field in DIVariable; but moving
that into the expression would be a natural next step.

Somewhat unnoticed in the original implementation of discriminators, but
it could cause instructions to end up in new, small,
DW_TAG_lexical_blocks due to the use of DILexicalBlock to track
discriminator changes.
Instead, use DILexicalBlockFile which we already use to track file
changes without introducing new scopes, so it works well to track
discriminator changes in the same way.

variables (for example, by-value struct arguments passed in registers, or
large integer values split across several smaller registers).
On the IR level, this adds a new type of complex address operation OpPiece
to DIVariable that describes size and offset of a variable fragment.
On the DWARF emitter level, all pieces describing the same variable are
collected, sorted and emitted as DWARF expressions using the DW_OP_piece
and DW_OP_bit_piece operators.

What this patch doesn't do / Future work:
- This patch only adds the backend machinery to make this work, patches
that change SROA and SelectionDAG's type legalizer to actually create
such debug info will follow. (http://reviews.llvm.org/D2680)
- Making the DIVariable complex expressions into an argument of dbg.value
will reduce the memory footprint of the debug metadata.
- The sorting/uniquing of pieces should be moved into DebugLocEntry,
to facilitate the merging of multi-piece entries.

Per feedback on r214111, we are going to use null to represent unspecified
parameter. If the type array is {null}, it means a function that returns void;
If the type array is {null, null}, it means a variadic function that returns
void. In summary if we have more than one element in the type array and the last
element is null, it is a variadic function.

DITypeArray is an array of DITypeRef, at its creation, we will create
DITypeRef (i.e use the identifier if the type node has an identifier).

This is the first of a series of patches to handle type uniqueing of the

This commit makes sure unspecified_parameter is a DIType to enable converting
the type array for a subroutine type to an array of DITypes.
This commit should have no functionality change. With this commit, we may
change unspecified type to be a DITrivialType instead of a DIType.

space, DIVariable nodes are still variable-length, with the last two
fields being optional.

Summary:
This new debug emission kind supports emitting line location
information in all instructions, but stops code generation
from emitting debug info to the final output.
This mode is useful when the backend wants to track source
locations during code generation, but it does not want to
produce debug info. This is currently used by optimization
remarks (-pass-remarks, -pass-remarks-missed and
-pass-remarks-analysis).
To prevent debug info emission, DIBuilder never inserts the
annotation 'llvm.dbg.cu' when LocTrackingOnly is enabled.

Also, provide the ability to create temporary and non-temporary
declarations, as not all declarations may be replaced by definitions
later on.
This provides the necessary infrastructure for Clang to fix PR19598,
leaking temporary MDNodes in Clang's debug info generation.

This the LLVM portion that will allow Clang and other frontends to emit
typedefs of void by providing a null type for the typedef's underlying
type.

I really should read the spec more often (and test GCC more often too).
I just assumed that namespace aliases would be the same as using
directives, except with a name. But apparently that's not how the DWARF
standards suggests they be implemented. DWARF4 provides an example and
other non-normative text suggesting that namespace aliases be
implemented by named imported declarations intsead of named imported
modules.
So be it.

is updated to use DITypeRef.
Move isUnsignedDIType and getOriginalTypeSize from DebugInfo.h to be static
helper functions in DwarfCompileUnit. We already have a static helper function
"isTypeSigned" in DwarfCompileUnit, and a pointer to DwarfDebug is added to
resolve the derived-from field. All three functions need to go across link
for derived-from fields, so we need to get hold of a type identifier map.
A pointer to DwarfDebug is also added to DbgVariable in order to resolve the
derived-from field.
Debug info verifier is updated to check a derived-from field is a TypeRef.
Verifier will not go across link for derived-from fields, in debug info finder,
we go across the link to add derived-from fields to types.
Function getDICompositeType is only used by dragonegg and since dragonegg does
not generate identifier for types, we use an empty map to resolve the
derived-from field.
When printing a derived-from field, we use DITypeRef::getName to either return
the type identifier or getName of the DIType.
A paired commit at clang is required due to changes to DIBuilder.

In DIBuilder, the context field of a TAG_member is updated to use the
scope reference. Verifier is updated accordingly.
DebugInfoFinder now needs to generate a type identifier map to have
access to the actual scope. Same applies for BreakpointPrinter.
processModule of DebugInfoFinder is called during initialization phase
of the verifier to make sure the type identifier map is constructed early
enough.
We are now able to unique a simple class as demonstrated by the added
testing case.
