The primary advantage is that loop optimizations will be applied in a
stable order. This helps debugging and unit test creation. It is also
a better overall implementation without pathologically bad performance
on deep functions.

The loop tree is now consistently generated in forward order, but loop
passes are applied in reverse order over the program. If we have a
loop optimization that prefers forward order, that can easily be
achieved by adding a different type of LoopPassManager.

- provide more extensive set of functions to detect library allocation functions (e.g., malloc, calloc, strdup, etc)
- provide an API to compute the size and offset of an object pointed by
Move a few clients (GVN, AA, instcombine, ...) to the new API.
This implementation is a lot more aggressive than each of the custom implementations being replaced.

-stable-loops enables a new algorithm for generating the Loop
forest. It differs from the original algorithm in a few respects:
- Not determined by use-list order.
- Initially guarantees RPO order of block and subloops.
- Linear in the number of CFG edges.
- Nonrecursive.
I didn't want to change the LoopInfo API yet, so the block lists are
still inclusive. This seems strange to me, and it means that building
LoopInfo is not strictly linear, but it may not be a problem in
practice. At least the block lists start out in RPO order now. In the
future we may add an attribute or wrapper analysis that allows other
passes to assume RPO order.
The primary motivation of this work was not to optimize LoopInfo, but
to allow reproducing performance issues by decomposing the compilation
stages. I'm often unable to do this with the current LoopInfo, because
the loop tree order determines Loop pass order. Serializing the IR
tends to invert the order, which reverses the optimization order. This
makes it nearly impossible to debug interdependent loop optimizations
such as LSR.
I also believe this will provide more stable performance results across time.

The implementation only needs inclusion from LoopInfo.cpp and
MachineLoopInfo.cpp. Clients of the interface should only include the
interface. This makes the interface readable and speeds up rebuilds
after modifying the implementation.

This also required making recursive simplifications until
nothing changes or a hard limit (currently 3) is hit.
With the simplification in place indvars can canonicalize
loops of the form
for (unsigned i = 0; i < a-b; ++i)
into
for (unsigned i = 0; i != a-b; ++i)
which used to fail because SCEV created a weird umax expr
for the backedge taken count.

If integer overflow causes one of the terms to reach zero, that can
force the entire expression to zero.

isLoopEntryGuardedByCond then evaluates the loop predicate which

add a new Region::block_iterator which actually iterates over the basic
blocks of the region.
The old iterator, now call 'block_node_iterator' iterates over
RegionNodes which contain a single basic block. This works well with the
GraphTraits-based iterator design, however most users actually want an
iterator over the BasicBlocks inside these RegionNodes. Now the
'block_iterator' is a wrapper which exposes exactly this interface.
Internally it uses the block_node_iterator to walk all nodes which are
single basic blocks, but transparently unwraps the basic block to make
user code simpler.
While this patch is a bit of a wash, most of the updates are to internal
users, not external users of the RegionInfo. I have an accompanying
patch to Polly that is a strict simplification of every user of this
interface, and I'm working on a pass that also wants the same simplified
interface.
This patch alone should have no functional impact.

minor behavior changes with this, but nothing I have seen evidence of in
the wild or expect to be meaningful. The real goal is unifying our logic
and simplifying the interfaces. A summary of the changes follows:
- Make 'callIsSmall' actually accept a callsite so it can handle
intrinsics, and simplify callers appropriately.
- Nuke a completely bogus declaration of 'callIsSmall' that was still
lurking in InlineCost.h... No idea how this got missed.
- Teach the 'isInstructionFree' about the various more intelligent
'free' heuristics that got added to the inline cost analysis during
review and testing. This mostly surrounds int->ptr and ptr->int casts.
- Switch most of the interesting parts of the inline cost analysis that
were essentially computing 'is this instruction free?' to use the code
metrics routine instead. This way we won't keep duplicating logic.
All of this is motivated by the desire to allow other passes to compute
a roughly equivalent 'cost' metric for a particular basic block as the
inline cost analysis. Sadly, re-using the same analysis for both is
really messy because only the actual inline cost analysis is ever going
to go to the contortions required for simplification, SROA analysis,
etc.

instead of getAggregateElement. This has the advantage of being
more consistent and allowing higher-level constant folding to
procede even if an inner extract element cannot be folded.
Make ConstantFoldInstruction call ConstantFoldConstantExpression
on the instruction's operands, making it more consistent with
ConstantFoldConstantExpression itself. This makes sure that
ConstantExprs get TargetData-aware folding before being handed
off as operands for further folding.
This causes more expressions to be folded, but due to a known
shortcoming in constant folding, this currently has the side effect
of stripping a few more nuw and inbounds flags in the non-targetdata
side of constant-fold-gep.ll. This is mostly harmless.
This fixes rdar://11324230.

constants in C++11 mode. I have no idea why it required such particular
circumstances to get here, the code seems clearly to rely upon unchecked
assumptions.
Specifically, when we decide to form an index into a struct type, we may
have gone through (at least one) zero-length array indexing round, which
would have left the offset un-adjusted, and thus not necessarily valid
for use when indexing the struct type.
This is just an canonicalization step, so the correct thing is to refuse
to canonicalize nonsensical GEPs of this form. Implemented, and test
case added.

speculate. Without this, loop rotate (among many other places) would
suddenly stop working in the presence of debug info. I found this
looking at loop rotate, and have augmented its tests with a reduction
out of a very hot loop in yacr2 where failing to do this rotation costs
sometimes more than 10% in runtime performance, perturbing numerous
downstream optimizations.
This should have no impact on performance without debug info, but the
change in performance when debug info is enabled can be extreme. As
a consequence (and this how I got to this yak) any profiling of
performance problems should be treated with deep suspicion -- they may
have been wildly innacurate of debug info was enabled for profiling. =/
Just a heads up.
