Summary:
It isn't clear what is the operational meaning of loading or storing an
unsized types, since it cannot be lowered into something meaningful.
Since there does not seem to be any practical need for it either, make
such loads and stores illegal IR.

This new verifier rule lets us unambigously pick a calling convention
when creating a new declaration for
`@llvm.experimental.deoptimize.<ty>`. It is also congruent with our
lowering strategy -- since all calls to `@llvm.experimental.deoptimize`
are lowered to calls to `__llvm_deoptimize`, it is reasonable to enforce
a unique calling convention.
Some of the tests that were breaking this verifier rule have had to be
split up into different .ll files.
The inliner was violating this rule as well, and has been fixed to avoid
producing invalid IR.

Eliminate DITypeIdentifierMap and make DITypeRef a thin wrapper around
DIType*. It is no longer legal to refer to a DICompositeType by its
'identifier:', and DIBuilder no longer retains all types with an
'identifier:' automatically.
Aside from the bitcode upgrade, this is mainly removing logic to resolve
an MDString-based reference to an actualy DIType. The commits leading
up to this have made the implicit type map in DICompileUnit's
'retainedTypes:' field superfluous.
This does not remove DITypeRef, DIScopeRef, DINodeRef, and
DITypeRefArray, or stop using them in DI-related metadata. Although as
of this commit they aren't serving a useful purpose, there are patchces
under review to reuse them for CodeView support.
The tests in LLVM were updated with deref-typerefs.sh, which is attached
to the thread "[RFC] Lazy-loading of debug info metadata":

Currently each Function points to a DISubprogram and DISubprogram has a
scope field. For member functions the scope is a DICompositeType. DIScopes
point to the DICompileUnit to facilitate type uniquing.
Distinct DISubprograms (with isDefinition: true) are not part of the type
hierarchy and cannot be uniqued. This change removes the subprograms
list from DICompileUnit and instead adds a pointer to the owning compile
unit to distinct DISubprograms. This would make it easy for ThinLTO to
strip unneeded DISubprograms and their transitively referenced debug info.
Motivation
----------
Materializing DISubprograms is currently the most expensive operation when
doing a ThinLTO build of clang.
We want the DISubprogram to be stored in a separate Bitcode block (or the
same block as the function body) so we can avoid having to expensively
deserialize all DISubprograms together with the global metadata. If a
function has been inlined into another subprogram we need to store a
reference the block containing the inlined subprogram.

Summary:
Fixes PR26774.
If you're aware of the issue, feel free to skip the "Motivation"
section and jump directly to "This patch".
Motivation:
I define "refinement" as discarding behaviors from a program that the
optimizer has license to discard. So transforming:
```
void f(unsigned x) {
unsigned t = 5 / x;
(void)t;
}
```
to
```
void f(unsigned x) { }
```
is refinement, since the behavior went from "if x == 0 then undefined
else nothing" to "nothing" (the optimizer has license to discard
undefined behavior).
Refinement is a fundamental aspect of many mid-level optimizations done
by LLVM. For instance, transforming `x == (x + 1)` to `false` also
involves refinement since the expression's value went from "if x is
`undef` then { `true` or `false` } else { `false` }" to "`false`" (by
definition, the optimizer has license to fold `undef` to any non-`undef`
value).
Unfortunately, refinement implies that the optimizer cannot assume
that the implementation of a function it can see has all of the
behavior an unoptimized or a differently optimized version of the same
function can have. This is a problem for functions with comdat
linkage, where a function can be replaced by an unoptimized or a
differently optimized version of the same source level function.
For instance, FunctionAttrs cannot assume a comdat function is
actually `readnone` even if it does not have any loads or stores in
it; since there may have been loads and stores in the "original
function" that were refined out in the currently visible variant, and
at the link step the linker may in fact choose an implementation with
a load or a store. As an example, consider a function that does two
atomic loads from the same memory location, and writes to memory only
if the two values are not equal. The optimizer is allowed to refine
this function by first CSE'ing the two loads, and the folding the
comparision to always report that the two values are equal. Such a
refined variant will look like it is `readonly`. However, the
unoptimized version of the function can still write to memory (since
the two loads //can// result in different values), and selecting the
unoptimized version at link time will retroactively invalidate
transforms we may have done under the assumption that the function
does not write to memory.
Note: this is not just a problem with atomics or with linking
differently optimized object files. See PR26774 for more realistic
examples that involved neither.
This patch:
This change introduces a new set of linkage types, predicated as
`GlobalValue::mayBeDerefined` that returns true if the linkage type
allows a function to be replaced by a differently optimized variant at
link time. It then changes a set of IPO passes to bail out if they see
such a function.

Reject the following IR as malformed (assuming that %entry, %next are
not in a loop):
next:
%y = phi i32 [ 0, %entry ]
%x = phi i32 [ %y, %entry ]
Such PHI nodes came up in PR26718. While there was no consensus on
whether or not this is valid IR, most opinions on that bug and in a
discussion on the llvm-dev mailing list tended towards a
"strict interpretation" (term by Joseph Tremoulet) of PHI node uses.
Also, the language reference explicitly states that "the use of each
incoming value is deemed to occur on the edge from the corresponding
predecessor block to the current block" and
`DominatorTree::dominates(Instruction*, Use&)` uses this definition as
well.
For the code mentioned in PR15384, clang does not compile to such PHIs
(anymore?). The test case still hangs when replacing `%tmp6` with `%tmp`
in revisions before r176366 (where PR15384 has been fixed). The
occurrence of %tmp6 therefore was probably unintentional. Its value is
not used except in other PHIs.

Summary:
This intrinsic, together with deoptimization operand bundles, allow
frontends to express transfer of control and frame-local state from
one (typically more specialized, hence faster) version of a function
into another (typically more generic, hence slower) version.
In languages with a fully integrated managed runtime this intrinsic can
be used to implement "uncommon trap" like functionality. In unmanaged
languages like C and C++, this intrinsic can be used to represent the
slow paths of specialized functions.
Note: this change does not address how `@llvm.experimental_deoptimize`
is lowered. That will be done in a later change.

EH personalities require all such exceptional exits from a given funclet to
have the same unwind destination, and EH preparation / state numbering /
table generation implicitly depends on this. Formalize it as a rule of
the IR in the LangRef and verifier.

Summary:
Funclet EH personalities require a tree-like nesting among funclets
(enforced by the ParentPad linkage in the IR), and also require that
unwind edges conform to certain rules with respect to the tree:
- An unwind edge may exit 0 or more ancestor pads
- An unwind edge must enter exactly one EH pad, which must be distinct
from any exited pads
- A cleanupret's edge must exit its cleanuppad
Describe these rules in the LangRef, and enforce them in the verifier.

Currently, we try to split vectors of pointers back into their component pointer elements during rewrite-statepoints-for-gc. This is less than ideal since presumably the vectorizer chose to vectorize for a reason. :) It's also been a source of bugs - in particular, the relocation logic as currently implemented was recently discovered to be wrong.
The alternate approach is to allow gc.relocates of vector-of-pointer type and update the backend to handle them. That's what this patch tries to do. This won't actually enable vector-of-pointers in practice - there are some RS4GC changes needed - but the lowering is standalone and testable so it makes sense to separate.
Note that there are some known cases around vector constants which this patch does not handle. Once this is in, I'll send another patch with individual fixes and test cases.

Summary: This patch changes gc.statepoint intrinsic's return type to token type instead of i32 type. Using token types could prevent LLVM to merge different gc.statepoint nodes into PHI nodes and cause further problems with gc relocations. The patch also changes the way on how gc.relocate and gc.result look for their corresponding gc.statepoint on unwind path. The current implementation uses the selector value extracted from a { i8*, i32 } landingpad as a hook to find the gc.statepoint, while the patch directly uses a token type landingpad (http://reviews.llvm.org/D15405) to find the gc.statepoint.

Summary:
I didn't realize that we already allowed atomic load/store of pointers,
it was added in 2012 by r162146. This patch updates the documentation
and tightens the verifier by using DataLayout to make sure that the
stored size is byte-sized and power-of-two. DataLayout is also used for
integers, and while I'm here I updated the corresponding code for
cmpxchg and rmw.

This patch allows atomic loads and stores of floating point to be specified in the IR and adds an adapter to allow them to be lowered via existing backend support for bitcast-to-equivalent-integer idiom.
Previously, the only way to specify a atomic float operation was to bitcast the pointer to a i32, load the value as an i32, then bitcast to a float. At it's most basic, this patch simply moves this expansion step to the point we start lowering to the backend.
This patch does not add canonicalization rules to convert the bitcast idioms to the appropriate atomic loads. I plan to do that in the future, but for now, let's simply add the support. I'd like to get instruction selection working through at least one backend (x86-64) without the bitcast conversion before canonicalizing into this form.
Similarly, I haven't yet added the target hooks to opt out of the lowering step I added to AtomicExpand. I figured it would more sense to add those once at least one backend (x86) was ready to actually opt out.
As you can see from the included tests, the generated code quality is not great. I plan on submitting some patches to fix this, but help from others along that line would be very welcome. I'm not super familiar with the backend and my ramp up time may be material.

While we have successfully implemented a funclet-oriented EH scheme on
top of LLVM IR, our scheme has some notable deficiencies:
- catchendpad and cleanupendpad are necessary in the current design
but they are difficult to explain to others, even to seasoned LLVM
experts.
- catchendpad and cleanupendpad are optimization barriers. They cannot
be split and force all potentially throwing call-sites to be invokes.
This has a noticable effect on the quality of our code generation.
- catchpad, while similar in some aspects to invoke, is fairly awkward.
It is unsplittable, starts a funclet, and has control flow to other
funclets.
- The nesting relationship between funclets is currently a property of
control flow edges. Because of this, we are forced to carefully
analyze the flow graph to see if there might potentially exist illegal
nesting among funclets. While we have logic to clone funclets when
they are illegally nested, it would be nicer if we had a
representation which forbade them upfront.
Let's clean this up a bit by doing the following:
- Instead, make catchpad more like cleanuppad and landingpad: no control
flow, just a bunch of simple operands; catchpad would be splittable.
- Introduce catchswitch, a control flow instruction designed to model
the constraints of funclet oriented EH.
- Make funclet scoping explicit by having funclet instructions consume
the token produced by the funclet which contains them.
- Remove catchendpad and cleanupendpad. Their presence can be inferred
implicitly using coloring information.
N.B. The state numbering code for the CLR has been updated but the
veracity of it's output cannot be spoken for. An expert should take a
look to make sure the results are reasonable.

They are as much trouble as aliases to declarations. They are requiring
the code generator to define a symbol with the same value as another

Note, this was reviewed (and more details are in) http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20151109/312083.html
These intrinsics currently have an explicit alignment argument which is
required to be a constant integer. It represents the alignment of the
source and dest, and so must be the minimum of those.
This change allows source and dest to each have their own alignments
by using the alignment attribute on their arguments. The alignment
argument itself is removed.
There are a few places in the code for which the code needs to be
checked by an expert as to whether using only src/dest alignment is
safe. For those places, they currently take the minimum of src/dest
alignments which matches the current behaviour.
For example, code which used to read:
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* %dest, i8* %src, i32 500, i32 8, i1 false)
will now read:
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* align 8 %dest, i8* align 8 %src, i32 500, i1 false)
For out of tree owners, I was able to strip alignment from calls using sed by replacing:
(call.*llvm\.memset.*)i32\ [0-9]*\,\ i1 false\)
with:
$1i1 false)
and similarly for memmove and memcpy.
I then added back in alignment to test cases which needed it.
A similar commit will be made to clang which actually has many differences in alignment as now
IRBuilder can generate different source/dest alignments on calls.
In IRBuilder itself, a new argument was added. Instead of calling:
CreateMemCpy(Dst, Src, getInt64(Size), DstAlign, /* isVolatile */ false)
you now call
CreateMemCpy(Dst, Src, getInt64(Size), DstAlign, SrcAlign, /* isVolatile */ false)
There is a temporary class (IntegerAlignment) which takes the source alignment and rejects
implicit conversion from bool. This is to prevent isVolatile here from passing its default
parameter to the source alignment.
Note, changes in future can now be made to codegen. I didn't change anything here, but this
change should enable better memcpy code sequences.

LLVM can recognize and optimize these in more precise ways than it can a
generic "unknown" operand bundles.
The current form of this special recognition / optimization is an enum
entry in LLVMContext, a LangRef blurb and a verifier rule. Over time we
will teach LLVM to do more aggressive optimization around deoptimization
operand bundles, exploiting known facts about kinds of state
deoptimization operand bundles are allowed to track.

Previously, subprograms contained a metadata reference to the function they
described. Because most clients need to get or set a subprogram for a given
function rather than the other way around, this created unneeded inefficiency.
For example, many passes needed to call the function llvm::makeSubprogramMap()
to build a mapping from functions to subprograms, and the IR linker needed to
fix up function references in a way that caused quadratic complexity in the IR
linking phase of LTO.
This change reverses the direction of the edge by storing the subprogram as
function-level metadata and removing DISubprogram's function field.
Since this is an IR change, a bitcode upgrade has been provided.
Fixes PR23367. An upgrade script for textual IR for out-of-tree clients is
attached to the PR.
