Summary:
This patch starts the implementation as discuss in the following RFC: http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2016-October/106532.html
When optimization duplicates code that will scale down the execution count of a basic block, we will record the duplication factor as part of discriminator so that the offline process tool can find the duplication factor and collect the accurate execution frequency of the corresponding source code. Two important optimization that fall into this category is loop vectorization and loop unroll. This patch records the duplication factor for these 2 optimizations.
The recording will be guarded by a flag encode-duplication-in-discriminators, which is off by default.

This patch implements PR31013 by introducing a
DIGlobalVariableExpression that holds a pair of DIGlobalVariable and
DIExpression.
Currently, DIGlobalVariables holds a DIExpression. This is not the
best way to model this:
(1) The DIGlobalVariable should describe the source level variable,
not how to get to its location.
(2) It makes it unsafe/hard to update the expressions when we call
replaceExpression on the DIGLobalVariable.
(3) It makes it impossible to represent a global variable that is in
more than one location (e.g., a variable with multiple
DW_OP_LLVM_fragment-s). We also moved away from attaching the
DIExpression to DILocalVariable for the same reasons.
This reapplies r289902 with additional testcase upgrades and a change
to the Bitcode record for DIGlobalVariable, that makes upgrading the
old format unambiguous also for variables without DIExpressions.

This reverts commit 289920 (again).
I forgot to implement a Bitcode upgrade for the case where a DIGlobalVariable
has not DIExpression. Unfortunately it is not possible to safely upgrade
these variables without adding a flag to the bitcode record indicating which
version they are.
My plan of record is to roll the planned follow-up patch that adds a
unit: field to DIGlobalVariable into this patch before recomitting.
This way we only need one Bitcode upgrade for both changes (with a
version flag in the bitcode record to safely distinguish the record
formats).

This adds a new function to DebugInfo.cpp that takes an llvm::Module
as input and removes all debug info metadata that is not directly
needed for line tables, thus effectively stripping all type and
variable information from the module.
The primary motivation for this feature was the bitcode work flow
(cf. http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2016-June/100643.html
for more background). This is not wired up yet, but will be in
subsequent patches. For testing, the new functionality is exposed to
opt with a -strip-nonlinetable-debuginfo option.
The secondary use-case (and one that works right now!) is as a
reduction pass in bugpoint. I added two new bugpoint options
(-disable-strip-debuginfo and -disable-strip-debug-types) to control
the new features. By default it will first attempt to remove all debug
information, then only the type info, and then proceed to hack at any
remaining MDNodes.

This is a fix for PR28697.
An MDNode can indirectly refer to a GlobalValue, through a
ConstantAsMetadata. When the GlobalValue is deleted, the MDNode operand
is reset to `nullptr`. If the node is uniqued, this can lead to a
hard-to-detect cache invalidation in a Metadata map that's shared across
an LLVMContext.
Consider:
1. A map from Metadata* to `T` called RemappedMDs.
2. A node that references a global variable, `!{i1* @GV}`.
3. Insert `!{i1* @GV} -> SomeT` in the map.
4. Delete `@GV`, leaving behind `!{null} -> SomeT`.
Looking up the generic and uninteresting `!{null}` gives you `SomeT`,
which is likely related to `@GV`. Worse, `SomeT`'s lifetime may be tied
to the deleted `@GV`.
This occurs in practice in the shared ValueMap used since r266579 in the
IRMover. Other code that handles more than one Module (with different
lifetimes) in the same LLVMContext could hit it too.
The fix here is a partial revert of r225223: in the rare case that an
MDNode operand is a ConstantAsMetadata (i.e., wrapping a node from the
Value hierarchy), drop uniquing if it gets replaced with `nullptr`.
This changes step #4 above to leave behind `distinct !{null} -> SomeT`,
which can't be confused with the generic `!{null}`.
In theory, this can cause some churn in the LLVMContext's MDNode
uniquing map when Values are being deleted. However:
- The number of GlobalValues referenced from uniqued MDNodes is
expected to be quite small. E.g., the debug info metadata schema
only references GlobalValues from distinct nodes.
- Other Constants have the lifetime of the LLVMContext, whose teardown
is careful to drop references before deleting the constants.
As a result, I don't expect a compile time regression from this change.

Summary:
For sample-based PGO, using BFI to calculate callsite count is sometime not accurate. This is because with sampling based approach, if a callsite resides in a hot loop deeply nested in a bunch of cold branches, the callsite's BFI frequency would be inaccurately calculated due to lack of samples in the cold branch.
E.g.
if (A1 && A2 && A3 && ..... && A10) {
for (i=0; i < 100000000; i++) {
callsite();
}
}
Assume that A1 to A100 are all 100% taken, and callsite has 1000 samples and thus is considerred hot. Because the loop's trip count is huge, it's normal that all branches outside the loop has no sample at all. As a result, we can only use static branch probability to derive the the frequency of the loop header. Assuming that static heuristic thinks each branch is 50% taken, then the count calculated from BFI will be 1/(2^10) of the actual value.
In order to get more accurate callsite count, we directly annotate the weight on the call instruction, and directly use it when checking callsite hotness.
Note that this mechanism can also be shared by instrumentation based callsite hotness analysis. The side benefit is that it breaks the dependency from Inliner to BFI as call count is embedded in the IR.

This intrinsic safely loads a function pointer from a virtual table pointer
using type metadata. This intrinsic is used to implement control flow integrity
in conjunction with virtual call optimization. The virtual call optimization
pass will optimize away llvm.type.checked.load intrinsics associated with
devirtualized calls, thereby removing the type check in cases where it is
not needed to enforce the control flow integrity constraint.
This patch also introduces the capability to copy type metadata between
global variables, and teaches the virtual call optimization pass to do so.

The bitset metadata currently used in LLVM has a few problems:
1. It has the wrong name. The name "bitset" refers to an implementation
detail of one use of the metadata (i.e. its original use case, CFI).
This makes it harder to understand, as the name makes no sense in the
context of virtual call optimization.
2. It is represented using a global named metadata node, rather than
being directly associated with a global. This makes it harder to
manipulate the metadata when rebuilding global variables, summarise it
as part of ThinLTO and drop unused metadata when associated globals are
dropped. For this reason, CFI does not currently work correctly when
both CFI and vcall opt are enabled, as vcall opt needs to rebuild vtable
globals, and fails to associate metadata with the rebuilt globals. As I
understand it, the same problem could also affect ASan, which rebuilds
globals with a red zone.
This patch solves both of those problems in the following way:
1. Rename the metadata to "type metadata". This new name reflects how
the metadata is currently being used (i.e. to represent type information
for CFI and vtable opt). The new name is reflected in the name for the
associated intrinsic (llvm.type.test) and pass (LowerTypeTests).
2. Attach metadata directly to the globals that it pertains to, rather
than using the "llvm.bitsets" global metadata node as we are doing now.
This is done using the newly introduced capability to attach
metadata to global variables (r271348 and r271358).

This is part of solving PR27344:
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=27344
CGP should undo the SimplifyCFG transform for the same reason that earlier patches have used this
same mechanism: it's possible that passes between SimplifyCFG and CGP may be able to optimize the
IR further with a select in place.
For the TLI hook default, >99% taken or not taken is chosen as the default threshold for a highly
predictable branch. Even the most limited HW branch predictors will be correct on this branch almost
all the time, so even a massive mispredict penalty perf loss would be overcome by the win from all
the times the branch was predicted correctly.
As a follow-up, we could make the default target hook less conservative by using the SchedMachineModel's
MispredictPenalty. Or we could just let targets override the default by implementing the hook with that
and other target-specific options. Note that trying to statically determine mispredict rates for
close-to-balanced profile weight data is generally impossible if the HW is sufficiently advanced. Ie,
50/50 taken/not-taken might still be 100% predictable.
Finally, note that this patch as-is will not solve PR27344 because the current __builtin_unpredictable()
branch weight default values are 4 and 64. A proposal to change that is in D19435.

Each reference to an unresolved MDNode is expensive, since the RAUW
support in MDNode uses a separate allocation and side map. Since
a distinct MDNode doesn't require its operands on creation (unlike
uniuqed nodes, there's no need to check for structural equivalence),
use nullptr for any of its unresolved operands. Besides reducing the
burden on MDNode maps, this can avoid allocating temporary MDNodes in
the first place.
We need some way to track operands. Invent DistinctMDOperandPlaceholder
for this purpose, which is a Metadata subclass that holds an ID and
points at its single user. DistinctMDOperandPlaceholder::replaceUseWith
is just like RAUW, but its name highlights that there is only ever
exactly one use.
There is no support for moving (or, obviously, copying) these. Move
support would be possible but expensive; leaving it unimplemented
prevents user error. In the BitcodeReader I originally considered
allocating on a BumpPtrAllocator and keeping a vector of pointers to
them, and then I realized that std::deque implements exactly this.
A couple of obvious follow-ups:
- Change ValueEnumerator to emit distinct nodes first to take more
advantage of this optimization. (How convenient... I think I might
have a couple of patches for this.)
- Change DIBuilder and its consumers (like CGDebugInfo in clang) to
use something like this when constructing debug info in the first
place.

We never use the set-ness of SmallPtrSet for distinct nodes. Eventually
we may start garbage-collecting or reference-counting nodes (in which
cases we'd want to remove things from this collection, and a fast erase
would be valuable), but in the meantime a vector is sufficient.

RAUW support on MDNode usually requires an extra allocation for
ReplaceableMetadataImpl. This is only strictly necessary if there are
tracking references to the MDNode. Make the construction of
ReplaceableMetadataImpl lazy, so that we don't get allocations if we
don't need them.
Since MDNode::isResolved now checks MDNode::isTemporary and
MDNode::NumUnresolved instead of whether a ReplaceableMetadataImpl is
allocated, the internal changes are intrusive (at various internal
checkpoints, isResolved now has a different answer).
However, there should be no real functionality change here; just
slightly lazier allocation behaviour. The external semantics should be
identical.

This is part of a series of patches to allow LLVM to check for complete
pointee types when computing its pointer traits. This is absolutely
necessary to get correct (or reproducible) results for things like how
many low bits are guaranteed to be zero.
The MetadataTracking helpers aren't actually independent. They rely on
constructing a PointerUnion between Metadata and MetadataAsValue
pointers, which requires know the alignment of pointers to those types
which requires them to be complete.
The .cpp file even defined a method declared in Metadata.h! These really
don't seem like something that is separable, and there is no real
