Problem: LLVM needs more function attributes than currently available (32 bits).
One such proposed attribute is "address_safety", which shows that a function is being checked for address safety (by AddressSanitizer, SAFECode, etc).
Solution:
- extend the Attributes from 32 bits to 64-bits
- wrap the object into a class so that unsigned is never erroneously used instead
- change "unsigned" to "Attributes" throughout the code, including one place in clang.
- the class has no "operator uint64 ()", but it has "uint64_t Raw() " to support packing/unpacking.
- the class has "safe operator bool()" to support the common idiom: if (Attributes attr = getAttrs()) useAttrs(attr);
- The CTOR from uint64_t is marked explicit, so I had to add a few explicit CTOR calls
- Add the new attribute "address_safety". Doing it in the same commit to check that attributes beyond first 32 bits actually work.
- Some of the functions from the Attribute namespace are worth moving inside the class, but I'd prefer to have it as a separate commit.
Tested:
"make check" on Linux (32-bit and 64-bit) and Mac (10.6)
built/run spec CPU 2006 on Linux with clang -O2.
This change will break clang build in lib/CodeGen/CGCall.cpp.
The following patch will fix it.

assume as much.

where USELIST_CODE_ENTRYs will be stored. The format of the USELIST_CODE_ENTRYs
have not yet been defined. Add support in the BitcodeReader for parsing the
USELIST_BLOCK.

This implements the 'landingpad' instruction. It's used to indicate that a basic
block is a landing pad. There are several restrictions on its use (see
LangRef.html for more detail). These restrictions allow the exception handling
code to gather the information it needs in a much more sane way.
This patch has the definition, implementation, C interface, parsing, and bitcode
support in it.

This adds the 'resume' instruction class, IR parsing, and bitcode reading and
writing. The 'resume' instruction resumes propagation of an existing (in-flight)
exception whose unwinding was interrupted with a 'landingpad' instruction (to be
added later).

'atomicrmw' instructions, which allow representing all the current atomic
rmw intrinsics.
The allowed operands for these instructions are heavily restricted at the
moment; we can probably loosen it a bit, but supporting general
first-class types (where it makes sense) might get a bit complicated,
given how SelectionDAG works.
As an initial cut, these operations do not support specifying an alignment,
but it would be possible to add if we think it's useful. Specifying an
alignment lower than the natural alignment would be essentially
impossible to support on anything other than x86, but specifying a greater
alignment would be possible. I can't think of any useful optimizations which
would use that information, but maybe someone else has ideas.
Optimizer/codegen support coming soon.

patch brings numerous advantages to LLVM. One way to look at it
is through diffstat:
109 files changed, 3005 insertions(+), 5906 deletions(-)
Removing almost 3K lines of code is a good thing. Other advantages
include:
1. Value::getType() is a simple load that can be CSE'd, not a mutating
union-find operation.
2. Types a uniqued and never move once created, defining away PATypeHolder.
3. Structs can be "named" now, and their name is part of the identity that
uniques them. This means that the compiler doesn't merge them structurally
which makes the IR much less confusing.
4. Now that there is no way to get a cycle in a type graph without a named
struct type, "upreferences" go away.
5. Type refinement is completely gone, which should make LTO much MUCH faster
in some common cases with C++ code.
6. Types are now generally immutable, so we can use "Type *" instead
"const Type *" everywhere.
Downsides of this patch are that it removes some functions from the C API,
so people using those will have to upgrade to (not yet added) new API.
"LLVM 3.0" is the right time to do this.
There are still some cleanups pending after this, this patch is large enough
as-is.

* Add a "landing pad" attribute to the BasicBlock.
* Modify the bitcode reader and writer to handle said attribute.
Later: The verifier will ensure that the landing pad attribute is used in the
appropriate manner. I.e., not applied to the entry block, and applied only to
basic blocks that are branched to via a `dispatch' instruction.
(This is a work-in-progress.)

Add a unnamed_addr bit to global variables and functions. This will be used
to indicate that the address is not significant and therefore the constant
or function can be merged with others.
If an optimization pass can show that an address is not used, it can set this.
Examples of things that can have this set by the FE are globals created to
hold string literals and C++ constructors.
Adding unnamed_addr to a non-const global should have no effect unless
an optimization can transform that global into a constant.
Aliases are not allowed to have unnamed_addr since I couldn't figure
out any use for it.

is different from what the code now uses in a two ways: NamedMDNodes
were considered Values and included in the numbering, and the
function-local metadata counter wasn't reset between functions.
The later problem breaks lazy deserialization, so instead of trying
to emulate the old numbering, just drop the old metadata. The only
in-tree use case is debug info with LTO, where the QOI loss is
considered acceptable.

It's similar to "linker_private_weak", but it's known that the address of the
object is not taken. For instance, functions that had an inline definition, but
the compiler decided not to inline it. Note, unlike linker_private and
linker_private_weak, linker_private_weak_def_auto may have only default
visibility. The symbols are removed by the linker from the final linked image
(executable or dynamic library).

Make MDNode::destroy private.
Fix the one thing that used MDNode::destroy, outside of MDNode itself.
One should never delete or destroy an MDNode explicitly. MDNodes
implicitly go away when there are no references to them (implementation
details aside).

bitcode file, so that two bitcode files where the same metadata kind
name happens to have been assigned a different ID can still be
linked together.
Eliminate the restriction that metadata kind IDs can't be 0.
Change MD_dbg from 1 to 0, because we can now, and because it's
less mysterious that way.

Objective-C metadata types which should be marked as "weak", but which the
linker will remove upon final linkage. However, this linkage isn't specific to
Objective-C.
For example, the "objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc" symbol is defined like this:
.globl l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
.weak_definition l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
.section __DATA, __objc_msgrefs, coalesced
.align 3
l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc:
.quad _objc_msgSend_fixup
.quad L_OBJC_METH_VAR_NAME_1
This is different from the "linker_private" linkage type, because it can't have
the metadata defined with ".weak_definition".
Currently only supported on Darwin platforms.
