97b394f6af [JumpThreading] Fix handling of aliasing metadata.
Summary:
The correctness fix here is that when we CSE a load with another load,
we need to combine the metadata on the two loads. This matches the
behavior of other passes, like instcombine and GVN.

There's also a minor optimization improvement here: for load PRE, the
aliasing metadata on the inserted load should be the same as the
metadata on the original load. Not sure why the old code was throwing
it away.

Issue found by inspection.

e82e4ddb87 Remove dead TLI arg of isKnownNonNull and propagate deadness. NFC.
This actually uncovered a surprisingly large chain of ultimately unused
TLI args.
From what I can gather, this argument is a remnant of when
isKnownNonNull would look at the TLI directly.
The current approach seems to be that InferFunctionAttrs runs early in
the pipeline and uses TLI to annotate the TLI-dependent non-null
information as return attributes.

This also removes the dependence of functionattrs on TLI altogether.

07e4e5556a Reduce dependence on pointee types when deducing dereferenceability
Summary:
Change some of the internal interfaces in Loads.cpp to keep track of the
number of bytes we're trying to prove dereferenceable using an explicit
`Size` parameter.

Before this, the `Size` parameter was implicitly inferred from the
pointee type of the pointer whose dereferenceability we were trying to
prove, causing us to be conservative around bitcasts. This was
unfortunate since bitcast instructions are no-ops and should never
break optimizations.  With an explicit `Size` parameter, we're more
precise (as shown in the test cases), and the code is simpler.

We should eventually move towards a `DerefQuery` struct that groups
together a base pointer, an offset, a size and an alignment; but this
patch is a first step.

c9e3e3cbfd Don't IPO over functions that can be de-refined
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.

d3a5adc5ba Analysis: Remove implicit ilist iterator conversions
Remove implicit ilist iterator conversions from LLVMAnalysis.

I came across something really scary in `llvm::isKnownNotFullPoison()`
which relied on `Instruction::getNextNode()` being completely broken
(not surprising, but scary nevertheless).  This function is documented
(and coded to) return `nullptr` when it gets to the sentinel, but with
an `ilist_half_node` as a sentinel, the sentinel check looks into some
other memory and we don't recognize we've hit the end.

Rooting out these scary cases is the reason I'm removing the implicit
conversions before doing anything else with `ilist`; I'm not at all
surprised that clients rely on badness.

I found another scary case -- this time, not relying on badness, just
bad (but I guess getting lucky so far) -- in
`ObjectSizeOffsetEvaluator::compute_()`.  Here, we save out the
insertion point, do some things, and then restore it.  Previously, we
let the iterator auto-convert to `Instruction*`, and then set it back
using the `Instruction*` version:

    Instruction *PrevInsertPoint = Builder.GetInsertPoint();

    /* Logic that may change insert point */

    if (PrevInsertPoint)
      Builder.SetInsertPoint(PrevInsertPoint);

The check for `PrevInsertPoint` doesn't protect correctly against bad
accesses.  If the insertion point has been set to the end of a basic
block (i.e., `SetInsertPoint(SomeBB)`), then `GetInsertPoint()` returns
an iterator pointing at the list sentinel.  The version of
`SetInsertPoint()` that's getting called will then call
`PrevInsertPoint->getParent()`, which explodes horribly.  The only
reason this hasn't blown up is that it's fairly unlikely the builder is
adding to the end of the block; usually, we're adding instructions
somewhere before the terminator.

52ab0bc417 [PM/AA] Extract the ModRef enums from the AliasAnalysis class in
preparation for de-coupling the AA implementations.

In order to do this, they had to become fake-scoped using the
traditional LLVM pattern of a leading initialism. These can't be actual
scoped enumerations because they're bitfields and thus inherently we use
them as integers.

I've also renamed the behavior enums that are specific to reasoning
about the mod/ref behavior of functions when called. This makes it more
clear that they have a very narrow domain of applicability.

I think there is a significantly cleaner API for all of this, but
I don't want to try to do really substantive changes for now, I just
want to refactor the things away from analysis groups so I'm preserving
the exact original design and just cleaning up the names, style, and
lifting out of the class.

529919ff31 DataLayout is mandatory, update the API to reflect it with references.
Summary:
Now that the DataLayout is a mandatory part of the module, let's start
cleaning the codebase. This patch is a first attempt at doing that.

This patch is not exactly NFC as for instance some places were passing
a nullptr instead of the DataLayout, possibly just because there was a
default value on the DataLayout argument to many functions in the API.
Even though it is not purely NFC, there is no change in the
validation.

I turned as many pointer to DataLayout to references, this helped
figuring out all the places where a nullptr could come up.

I had initially a local version of this patch broken into over 30
independant, commits but some later commit were cleaning the API and
touching part of the code modified in the previous commits, so it
seemed cleaner without the intermediate state.

a87c35420b Revert r220349 to re-instate r220277 with a fix for PR21330 -- quite
clearly only exactly equal width ptrtoint and inttoptr casts are no-op
casts, it says so right there in the langref. Make the code agree.

Original log from r220277:
Teach the load analysis to allow finding available values which require
inttoptr or ptrtoint cast provided there is datalayout available.
Eventually, the datalayout can just be required but in practice it will
always be there today.

To go with the ability to expose available values requiring a ptrtoint
or inttoptr cast, helpers are added to perform one of these three casts.

These smarts are necessary to finish canonicalizing loads and stores to
the operational type requirements without regressing fundamental
combines.

I've added some test cases. These should actually improve as the load
combining and store combining improves, but they may fundamentally be

9156c5e3ba Teach the load analysis to allow finding available values which require
inttoptr or ptrtoint cast provided there is datalayout available.
Eventually, the datalayout can just be required but in practice it will
always be there today.

To go with the ability to expose available values requiring a ptrtoint
or inttoptr cast, helpers are added to perform one of these three casts.

These smarts are necessary to finish canonicalizing loads and stores to
the operational type requirements without regressing fundamental
combines.

I've added some test cases. These should actually improve as the load
combining and store combining improves, but they may fundamentally be
highlighting some missing combines for select in addition to exercising
the specific added logic to load analysis.

3ac929c473 Fix a miscompile introduced in r220178.
The original code had an implicit assumption that if the test for
allocas or globals was reached, the two pointers were not equal. With my
changes to make the pointer analysis more powerful here, I also had to
guard against circumstances where the results weren't useful. That in
turn violated the assumption and gave rise to a circumstance in which we
could have a store with both the queried pointer and stored pointer
rooted at *the same* alloca. Clearly, we cannot ignore such a store.
There are other things we might do in this code to better handle the
case of both pointers ending up at the same alloca or global, but it
seems best to at least make the test explicit in what it intends to
check.

I've added tests for both the alloca and global case here.

35c4e071be Teach the load analysis driving core instcombine logic and other bits of
logic to look through pointer casts, making them trivially stronger in
the face of loads and stores with intervening pointer casts.

I've included a few test cases that demonstrate the kind of folding
instcombine can do without pointer casts and then variations which
obfuscate the logic through bitcasts. Without this patch, the variations
all fail to optimize fully.

This is more important now than it has been in the past as I've started
moving the load canonicialization to more closely follow the value type
requirements rather than the pointer type requirements and thus this
needs to be prepared for more pointer casts. When I made the same change
to stores several test cases regressed without logic along these lines
so I wanted to systematically improve matters first.

908d4514f6 Fix a long-standing miscompile in the load analysis that was uncovered
by my refactoring of this code.

The method isSafeToLoadUnconditionally assumes that the load will
proceed with the preferred type alignment. Given that, it has to ensure
that the alloca or global is at least that aligned. It has always done
this historically when a datalayout is present, but has never checked it
when the datalayout is absent. When I refactored the code in r220156,
I exposed this path when datalayout was present and that turned the
latent bug into a patent bug.

This fixes the issue by just removing the special case which allows
folding things without datalayout. This isn't worth the complexity of
trying to tease apart when it is or isn't safe without actually knowing
the preferred alignment.

f84407be32 Switch how the datalayout availability test is handled in this code to
make much more sense and in theory be more correct.

If you trace the code alllll the way back to when it was first
introduced, the comments make it slightly more clear what was going on
here. At that time, the only way Base != V was if DL (then TD) was
non-null. As a consequence, if DL *was* null, that meant we were loading
directly from the alloca or global found above the test. After
refactoring, this has become at least terribly subtle and potentially
incorrect. There are many forms of pointer manipulation that can be
traversed without DataLayout, and some of them would in fact change the
size of object being loaded vs. allocated.

Rather than this subtlety, I've hoisted the actual 'return true' bits
into the code which actually found an alloca or global and based them on
the loaded pointer being that alloca or global. This is both more clear
and safer. I've also added comments about exactly why this set of
predicates is used.

I've also corrected a misleading comment about globals -- if overridden
they may not just have a different size, they may be null and completely
unsafe to load from!

Hopefully this confuses the next reader a bit less. I don't have any
test cases or anything, the patch is motivated strictly to improve the
readability of the code.

2c7c54c86c AA metadata refactoring (introduce AAMDNodes)
In order to enable the preservation of noalias function parameter information
after inlining, and the representation of block-level __restrict__ pointer
information (etc.), additional kinds of aliasing metadata will be introduced.
This metadata needs to be carried around in AliasAnalysis::Location objects
(and MMOs at the SDAG level), and so we need to generalize the current scheme
(which is hard-coded to just one TBAA MDNode*).

This commit introduces only the necessary refactoring to allow for the
introduction of other aliasing metadata types, but does not actually introduce
any (that will come in a follow-up commit). What it does introduce is a new
AAMDNodes structure to hold all of the aliasing metadata nodes associated with
a particular memory-accessing instruction, and uses that structure instead of
the raw MDNode* in AliasAnalysis::Location, etc.

No functionality change intended.

0b8c9a80f2 Move all of the header files which are involved in modelling the LLVM IR
into their new header subdirectory: include/llvm/IR. This matches the
directory structure of lib, and begins to correct a long standing point
of file layout clutter in LLVM.

There are still more header files to move here, but I wanted to handle
them in separate commits to make tracking what files make sense at each
layer easier.

The only really questionable files here are the target intrinsic
tablegen files. But that's a battle I'd rather not fight today.

I've updated both CMake and Makefile build systems (I think, and my
tests think, but I may have missed something).

I've also re-sorted the includes throughout the project. I'll be
committing updates to Clang, DragonEgg, and Polly momentarily.
