Summary:
When alias analysis is uncertain about the aliasing between any two accesses,
it will return MayAlias. This uncertainty from alias analysis restricts LICM
from proceeding further. In cases where alias analysis is uncertain we might
use loop versioning as an alternative.
Loop Versioning will create a version of the loop with aggressive aliasing
assumptions in addition to the original with conservative (default) aliasing
assumptions. The version of the loop making aggressive aliasing assumptions
will have all the memory accesses marked as no-alias. These two versions of
loop will be preceded by a memory runtime check. This runtime check consists
of bound checks for all unique memory accessed in loop, and it ensures the
lack of memory aliasing. The result of the runtime check determines which of
the loop versions is executed: If the runtime check detects any memory
aliasing, then the original loop is executed. Otherwise, the version with
aggressive aliasing assumptions is used.
The pass is off by default and can be enabled with command line option
-enable-loop-versioning-licm.

Summary:
Make sure that any new and optimized objects created during GlobalOPT copy all the attributes from the base object.
A good example of improper behavior in the current implementation is section information associated with the GlobalObject. If a section was set for it, and GlobalOpt is creating/modifying a new object based on this one (often copying the original name), without this change new object will be placed in a default section, resulting in inappropriate properties of the new variable.
The argument here is that if customer specified a section for a variable, any changes to it that compiler does should not cause it to change that section allocation.
Moreover, any other properties worth representation in copyAttributesFrom() should also be propagated.

Summary:
Since we are currently not doing incremental importing there is
no need to link metadata as a postpass. The module linker will
only link in the imported subroutines due to the functionality
added by r256003.
(Note that the metadata postpass linking functionalitiy is still
used by llvm-link, and may be needed here in the future if a more
incremental strategy is adopted.)

It's strange that LoopInfo mostly owns the Loop objects, but that it
defers deleting them to the loop pass manager. Instead, change the
oddly named "updateUnloop" to "markAsRemoved" and have it queue the
Loop object for deletion. We can't delete the Loop immediately when we
remove it, since we need its pointer identity still, so we'll mark the
object as "invalid" so that clients can see what's going on.

Due to the new in-place ThinLTO symbol handling support added in
r257174, we now invoke renameModuleForThinLTO on the current
module from within the FunctionImport pass.
Additionally, renameModuleForThinLTO no longer needs to return the
Module as it is performing the renaming in place on the one provided.
This commit will be immediately preceeded by a companion clang patch to
remove its invocation of renameModuleForThinLTO.

The function importer was still materializing metadata when modules were
loaded for function importing. We only want to materialize it when we
are going to invoke the metadata linking postpass. Materializing it
before function importing is not only unnecessary, but also causes
metadata referenced by imported functions to be mapped in early, and
then not connected to the rest of the module level metadata when it is
ultimately linked in.
Augmented the test case to specifically check for the metadata being
properly connected, which it wasn't before this fix.

a top-down manner into a true top-down or RPO pass over the call graph.
There are specific patterns of function attributes, notably the
norecurse attribute, which are most effectively propagated top-down
because all they us caller information.
Walk in RPO over the call graph SCCs takes the form of a module pass run
immediately after the CGSCC pass managers postorder walk of the SCCs,
trying again to deduce norerucrse for each singular SCC in the call
graph.
This removes a very legacy pass manager specific trick of using a lazy
revisit list traversed during finalization of the CGSCC pass. There is
no analogous finalization step in the new pass manager, and a lazy
revisit list is just trying to produce an RPO iteration of the call
graph. We can do that more directly if more expensively. It seems
unlikely that this will be the expensive part of any compilation though
as we never examine the function bodies here. Even in an LTO run over
a very large module, this should be a reasonable fast set of operations
over a reasonably small working set -- the function call graph itself.
In the future, if this really is a compile time performance issue, we
can look at building support for both post order and RPO traversals
directly into a pass manager that builds and maintains the PO list of
SCCs.

Most of the properties of memset_pattern16 can be now covered by the generic attributes and inferred by InferFunctionAttrs. The only exceptions are:

This patch removes the isOperatorNewLike predicate since it was only being used to establish a non-null return value and we have attributes specifically for that purpose with generic handling. To keep approximate the same behaviour for existing frontends, I added the various operator new like (i.e. instances of operator new) to InferFunctionAttrs. It's not really clear to me why this isn't handled in Clang, but I didn't want to break existing code and any subtle assumptions it might have.
Once this patch is in, I'm going to start separating the isAllocLike family of predicates. These appear to be being used for a mixture of things which should be more clearly separated and documented. Today, they're being used to indicate (at least) aliasing facts, CSE-ability, and default values from an allocation site.

a standalone pass.
There is no call graph or even interesting analysis for this part of
function attributes -- it is literally inferring attributes based on the
target library identification. As such, we can do it using a much
simpler module pass that just walks the declarations. This can also
happen much earlier in the pass pipeline which has benefits for any
number of other passes.
In the process, I've cleaned up one particular aspect of the logic which
was necessary in order to separate the two passes cleanly. It now counts
inferred attributes independently rather than just counting all the
inferred attributes as one, and the counts are more clearly explained.
The two test cases we had for this code path are both ... woefully
inadequate and copies of each other. I've kept the superset test and
updated it. We need more testing here, but I had to pick somewhere to
stop fixing everything broken I saw here.

This allows forcing optnone or other widely impactful attributes. It is
also a bit simpler as the force attribute behavior needs no specific
iteration order.
I've added the pass into the default module pass pipeline and LTO pass
pipeline which mirrors where function attrs itself was being run.

Summary:
Second patch split out from http://reviews.llvm.org/D14752.
Maps metadata as a post-pass from each module when importing complete,
suturing up final metadata to the temporary metadata left on the
imported instructions.
This entails saving the mapping from bitcode value id to temporary
metadata in the importing pass, and from bitcode value id to final
metadata during the metadata linking postpass.
Depends on D14825.
