invalidation of deleted functions in GlobalDCE.
This was always testing a bug really triggered in GlobalDCE. Right now
we have analyses with asserting value handles into IR. As long as those
remain, when *deleting* an IR unit, we cannot wait for the normal
invalidation scheme to kick in even though it was designed to work
correctly in the face of these kinds of deletions. Instead, the pass
needs to directly handle invalidating the analysis results pointing at
that IR unit.
I've tought the Inliner about this and this patch teaches GlobalDCE.
This will handle the asserting VH case in the existing test as well as
other issues of the same fundamental variety. I've moved the test into
the GlobalDCE directory and added a comment explaining what is going on.
Note that we cannot simply require LVI here because LVI is too lazy.

new PM's inliner.
The bug happens when we refine an SCC after having computed a proxy for
the FunctionAnalysisManager, and then proceed to compute fresh analyses
for functions in the *new* SCC using the manager provided by the old
SCC's proxy. *And* when we manage to mutate a function in this new SCC
in a way that invalidates those analyses. This can be... challenging to
reproduce.
I've managed to contrive a set of functions that trigger this and added
a test case, but it is a bit brittle. I've directly checked that the
passes run in the expected ways to help avoid the test just becoming
silently irrelevant.
This gets the new PM back to passing the LLVM test suite after the PGO
improvements landed.

Summary:
Under option -mergefunc-preserve-debug-info we:
- Do not create a new function for a thunk.
- Retain the debug info for a thunk's parameters (and associated
instructions for the debug info) from the entry block.
Note: -debug will display the algorithm at work.
- Create debug-info for the call (to the shared implementation) made by
a thunk and its return value.
- Erase the rest of the function, retaining the (minimally sized) entry
block to create a thunk.
- Preserve a thunk's call site to point to the thunk even when both occur
within the same translation unit, to aid debugability. Note that this
behaviour differs from the underlying -mergefunc implementation which
modifies the thunk's call site to point to the shared implementation
when both occur within the same translation unit.

This adds the following to the new PM based inliner in PGO mode:
* Use block frequency analysis to derive callsite's profile count and use
that to adjust thresholds of hot and cold callsites.
* Incrementally update the BFI of the caller after a callee gets inlined
into it. This incremental update is only within an invocation of the run
method - BFI is not preserved across calls to run.
Update the function entry count of the callee after inlining it into a
caller.
* I've tuned the thresholds for the hot and cold callsites using a hacked
up version of the old inliner that explicitly computes BFI on a set of
internal benchmarks and spec. Once the new PM based pipeline stabilizes
(IIRC Chandler mentioned there are known issues) I'll benchmark this
again and adjust the thresholds if required.

Summary:
We can sometimes end up with multiple copies of a local function that
have the same GUID in the index. This happens when there are local
functions with the same name that are in different source files with the
same name (but in different directories), and they were compiled in
their own directory so had the same path at compile time.
In this case make sure we import the copy in the caller's module. While
it isn't a correctness problem (the renamed reference which is based on the
module IR hash will be unique since the module must have had an
externally visible function that was imported), importing the wrong copy
will result in lost performance opportunity since it won't be referenced
and inlined.

Using the linker-supplied list of "preserved" symbols, we can compute
the list of "dead" symbols, i.e. the one that are not reachable from
a "preserved" symbol transitively on the reference graph.
Right now we are using this information to mark these functions as
non-eligible for import.
The impact is two folds:
- Reduction of compile time: we don't import these functions anywhere
or import the function these symbols are calling.
- The limited number of import/export leads to better internalization.

Summary:
This is a relatively simple scheme: we use the index emitted in the
bitcode to avoid loading all the global metadata. Instead we load
the index with their position in the bitcode so that we can load each
of them individually. Materializing the global metadata block in this
condition only triggers loading the named metadata, and the ones
referenced from there (transitively). When materializing a function,
metadata from the global block are loaded lazily as they are
referenced.
Two main current limitations are:
1) Global values other than functions are not materialized on demand,
so we need to eagerly load METADATA_GLOBAL_DECL_ATTACHMENT records
(and their transitive dependencies).
2) When we load a single metadata, we don't recurse on the operands,
instead we use a placeholder or a temporary metadata. Unfortunately
tepmorary nodes are very expensive. This is why we don't have it
always enabled and only for importing.
These two limitations can be lifted in a subsequent improvement if
needed.
With this change, the total link time of opt with ThinLTO and Debug
Info enabled is going down from 282s to 224s (~20%).

via ref edges.
It turns out there is a simple rule: insert everything as a ref edge
which is a safe conservative default. Then we let the existing update
logic handle promoting some of those to call edges.
Note that it would be fairly cheap to make these call edges right away
if that is desirable by testing whether there is some existing call path
from the source to the target. It just seemed like slightly more
complexity in this code path that isn't strictly necessary. If anyone
feels strongly about handling this differently I'm happy to change it.

skipping indirectly recursive inline chains.
To do this, we implicitly build an inline stack for each callsite and
check prior to inlining that doing so would not form a cycle. This uses
the exact same technique and even shares some code with the legacy PM
inliner.
This solution remains deeply unsatisfying to me because it means we
cannot actually iterate the inliner externally. Doing so would not be
able to easily detect and avoid such cycles. Some day I would very much
like to have a solution that works without this internal state to detect
cycles, but this is not that day.

removing fully-dead comdats without removing dead entries in comdats

This factors the core logic out of the current inliner's internals to
a reusable utility and leverages that in both places. The factored out
code should also be (minorly) more efficient in cases where we have very
few dead functions or dead comdats to consider.

Doing this really highlights how frustrating the current alwaysinline

removing functions with the always inliner. There is one remaining case
not handled -- fully removing comdats -- and I've left a FIXME about

Use a dummy private function with inline asm calls instead of module
level asm blocks for CFI jumptables.
The main advantage is that now jumptable codegen can be affected by
the function attributes (like target_cpu on ARM). Module level asm
gets the default subtarget based on the target triple, which is often
not good enough.
This change also uses asm constraints/arguments to reference
jumptable targets and aliases directly. We no longer do asm name

In r267672, where the loop distribution pragma was introduced, I tried
it hard to keep the old behavior for opt: when opt is invoked
with -loop-distribute, it should distribute the loop (it's off by
default when ran via the optimization pipeline).
As MichaelZ has discovered this has the unintended consequence of
breaking a very common developer work-flow to reproduce compilations
using opt: First you print the pass pipeline of clang
with -debug-pass=Arguments and then invoking opt with the returned
arguments.
clang -debug-pass will include -loop-distribute but the pass is invoked
with default=off so nothing happens unless the loop carries the pragma.
While through opt (default=on) we will try to distribute all loops.
This changes opt's default to off as well to match clang. The tests are
modified to explicitly enable the transformation.

This doesn't implement *every* feature of the existing inliner, but
tries to implement the most important ones for building a functional
optimization pipeline and beginning to sort out bugs, regressions, and
other problems.
Notable, but intentional omissions:
- No alloca merging support. Why? Because it isn't clear we want to do
this at all. Active discussion and investigation is going on to remove
it, so for simplicity I omitted it.
- No support for trying to iterate on "internally" devirtualized calls.
Why? Because it adds what I suspect is inappropriate coupling for
little or no benefit. We will have an outer iteration system that
tracks devirtualization including that from function passes and
iterates already. We should improve that rather than approximate it
here.
- Optimization remarks. Why? Purely to make the patch smaller, no other
reason at all.
The last one I'll probably work on almost immediately. But I wanted to
skip it in the initial patch to try to focus the change as much as
possible as there is already a lot of code moving around and both of
these *could* be skipped without really disrupting the core logic.
A summary of the different things happening here:
1) Adding the usual new PM class and rigging.
2) Fixing minor underlying assumptions in the inline cost analysis or
inline logic that don't generally hold in the new PM world.
3) Adding the core pass logic which is in essence a loop over the calls
in the nodes in the call graph. This is a bit duplicated from the old
inliner, but only a handful of lines could realistically be shared.
(I tried at first, and it really didn't help anything.) All told,
this is only about 100 lines of code, and most of that is the
mechanics of wiring up analyses from the new PM world.
4) Updating the LazyCallGraph (in the new PM) based on the *newly
inlined* calls and references. This is very minimal because we cannot
form cycles.
5) When inlining removes the last use of a function, eagerly nuking the
body of the function so that any "one use remaining" inline cost
heuristics are immediately refined, and queuing these functions to be
completely deleted once inlining is complete and the call graph
updated to reflect that they have become dead.
6) After all the inlining for a particular function, updating the
LazyCallGraph and the CGSCC pass manager to reflect the
function-local simplifications that are done immediately and
internally by the inline utilties. These are the exact same
fundamental set of CG updates done by arbitrary function passes.
7) Adding a bunch of test cases to specifically target CGSCC and other
subtle aspects in the new PM world.

Summary:
Instead of checking whether a global referenced by a function being
imported is defined in the same module, speculatively always add the
referenced globals to the module's export list. After all imports are
computed, for each module prune any not in its defined set from its
export list.
For a huge C++ app with aggressive importing thresholds, even with
D27687 we spent a lot of time invoking modulePath() from
exportGlobalInModule (modulePath() was still the 2nd hottest routine in
profile). The reason is that with comdat/linkonce the summary lists for
each GUID can be long. For the app in question, for example, we were
invoking exportGlobalInModule almost 2 million times, and we traversed
an average of 63 entries in the summary list each time.
This patch reduced the thin link time for the app by about 10% (on top
of D27687) when using aggressive importing thresholds, and about 3.5% on
average with default importing thresholds.

Keep the same adjusted (possibly decayed) threshold in both the worklist
and the ImportList. Otherwise if we encountered it first along a cold
path, the callee would be added to the worklist with a lower decayed
threshold than when it is later encountered along a hot path. But the
logic uses the threshold recorded in the ImportList entry to check if
we should re-add it, and without this patch the threshold recorded there
is the same along both paths so we don't re-add it. Using the
same possibly decayed threshold in the ImportList ensures we re-add it
later with the higher non-decayed hot path threshold.

Requesting metadata for a global is a relatively expensive operation as it
involves a map lookup, but it's one that we need to do relatively frequently in
this pass to collect the list of type metadata nodes associated with a global.
This change improves the performance of type metadata queries by prebuilding
data structures that keep the global together with its list of type metadata,
and changing the pass to use that data structure wherever we were previously
passing global references around.
This change also eliminates some O(N^2) behavior by collecting the list of
globals associated with each type identifier during the first pass over the
list of globals rather than visiting each global to compute that list every
time we add a new type identifier.

Summary:
We were doing an optimization in the ThinLTO backends of importing
constant unnamed_addr globals unconditionally as a local copy (regardless
of whether the thin link decided to import them). This should be done in
the thin link instead, so that resulting exported references are marked
and promoted appropriately, but will need a summary enhancement to mark
these variables as constant unnamed_addr.
The function import logic during the thin link was trying to handle
this proactively, by conservatively marking all values referenced in
the initializer lists of exported global variables as also exported.
However, this only handled values referenced directly from the
initializer list of an exported global variable. If the value is itself
a constant unnamed_addr variable, we could end up exporting its
references as well. This caused multiple issues. The first is that the
transitively exported references weren't promoted. Secondly, some could
not be promoted/renamed (e.g. they had a section or other constraint).
recursively, instead of just adding the first level of initializer list
references to the ExportList directly.
Remove this optimization and the associated handling in the function
import backend. SPEC measurements indicate we weren't getting much
from it in any case.

access to GlobalValues and should only be used if such access is required
(e.g. in the LTO implementation). We will eventually change IRObjectFile
to read from a bitcode symbol table rather than using ModuleSymbolTable,
so it would not be able to expose the module.

Summary:
We have always speculatively promoted all renamable local values
(except const non-address taken variables) for both the exporting
and importing module. We would then internalize them back based on
the ThinLink results if they weren't actually exported. This is
inefficient, and results in unnecessary renames. It also meant we
had to check the non-renamability of a value in the summary, which
was already checked during function importing analysis in the ThinLink.
Made renameModuleForThinLTO (which does the promotion/renaming) instead
use the index when exporting, to avoid unnecessary renames/promotions.
For importing modules, we can simply promoted all values as any local
we import by definition is exported and needs promotion.
This required changes to the method used by the FunctionImport pass
(only invoked from 'opt' for testing) and when invoked from llvm-link,
since neither does a ThinLink. We simply conservatively mark all locals
in the index as promoted, which preserves the current aggressive
promotion behavior.
I also needed to change an llvm-lto based test where we had previously
been aggressively promoting values that weren't importable (aliasees),
but now will not promote.

Summary:
The change in r285513 to prevent exporting of locals used in
inline asm added all locals in the llvm.used set to the reference
set of functions containing inline asm. Since these locals were marked
NoRename, this automatically prevented importing of the function.
Unfortunately, this caused an explosion in the summary reference lists
in some cases. In my particular example, it happened for a large protocol
buffer generated C++ file, where many of the generated functions
contained an inline asm call. It was exacerbated when doing a ThinLTO
PGO instrumentation build, where the PGO instrumentation included
thousands of private __profd_* values that were added to llvm.used.
We really only need to include a single llvm.used local (NoRename) value
in the reference list of a function containing inline asm to block it
being imported. However, it seems cleaner to add a flag to the summary
that explicitly describes this situation, which is what this patch does.

When a function pointer is replaced with a jumptable pointer, special
case is needed to preserve the semantics of extern_weak functions.
Since a jumptable entry can not be extern_weak, we emulate that
behaviour by replacing all references to F (the extern_weak function)
with the following expression: F != nullptr ? JumpTablePtr : nullptr.
Extra special care is needed for global initializers, since most (or
probably all) backends can not lower an initializer that includes
this kind of constant expression. Initializers like that are replaced
with a global constructor (i.e. a runtime initializer).

This is pure refactoring. NFC.
This change moves the FunctionComparator (together with the GlobalNumberState
utility) in to a separate file so that it can be used by other passes.
For example, the SwiftMergeFunctions pass in the Swift compiler:
https://github.com/apple/swift/blob/master/lib/LLVMPasses/LLVMMergeFunctions.cpp
Details of the change:
*) The big part is just moving code out of MergeFunctions.cpp into FunctionComparator.h/cpp
*) Make FunctionComparator member functions protected (instead of private)
so that a derived comparator class can use them.
Following refactoring helps to share code between the base FunctionComparator
class and a derived class:
*) Add a beginCompare() function
*) Move some basic function property comparisons into a separate function compareSignature()
*) Do the GEP comparison inside cmpOperations() which now has a new
needToCmpOperands reference parameter

The current implementation is emitting a global constant that happens
to evaluate to the same bytes + relocation as a jump instruction on
X86. This does not work for PIE executables and shared libraries
though, because we end up with a wrong relocation type. And it has no
chance of working on ARM/AArch64 which use different relocation types
for jump instructions (R_ARM_JUMP24) that is never generated for
data.
This change replaces the constant with module-level inline assembly
followed by a hidden declaration of the jump table. Works fine for
ARM/AArch64, but has some drawbacks.
* Extra symbols are added to the static symbol table, which inflate
the size of the unstripped binary a little. Stripped binaries are not
affected. This happens because jump table declarations must be
external (because their body is in the inline asm).
* Original functions that were anonymous are now named
<original name>.cfi, and it affects symbolization sometimes. This is
necessary because the only user of these functions is the (inline
asm) jump table, so they had to be added to @llvm.used, which does
not allow unnamed functions.

Summary:
This pass shrink-wraps a condition to some library calls where the call
result is not used. For example:
sqrt(val);
is transformed to
if (val < 0)
sqrt(val);
Even if the result of library call is not being used, the compiler cannot
safely delete the call because the function can set errno on error
conditions.
Note in many functions, the error condition solely depends on the incoming
parameter. In this optimization, we can generate the condition can lead to
the errno to shrink-wrap the call. Since the chances of hitting the error
condition is low, the runtime call is effectively eliminated.
These partially dead calls are usually results of C++ abstraction penalty
exposed by inlining. This optimization hits 108 times in 19 C/C++ programs
in SPEC2006.

There is really no reason for these to be separate.
The vectorizer started this pretty bad tradition that the text of the
missed remarks is pretty meaningless, i.e. vectorization failed. There,
you have to query analysis to get the full picture.
I think we should just explain the reason for missing the optimization
in the missed remark when possible. Analysis remarks should provide
information that the pass gathers regardless whether the optimization is

(Re-committed after moving the template specialization under the yaml
namespace. GCC was complaining about this.)
This allows various presentation of this data using an external tool.
This was first recommended here[1].
As an example, consider this module:
1 int foo();
2 int bar();
3
4 int baz() {
5 return foo() + bar();
6 }
The inliner generates these missed-optimization remarks today (the
hotness information is pulled from PGO):
remark: /tmp/s.c:5:10: foo will not be inlined into baz (hotness: 30)
remark: /tmp/s.c:5:18: bar will not be inlined into baz (hotness: 30)
Now with -pass-remarks-output=<yaml-file>, we generate this YAML file:
--- !Missed
Pass: inline
Name: NotInlined
DebugLoc: { File: /tmp/s.c, Line: 5, Column: 10 }
Function: baz
Hotness: 30
Args:
- Callee: foo
- String: will not be inlined into
- Caller: baz
...
--- !Missed
Pass: inline
Name: NotInlined
DebugLoc: { File: /tmp/s.c, Line: 5, Column: 18 }
Function: baz
Hotness: 30
Args:
- Callee: bar
- String: will not be inlined into
- Caller: baz
...
This is a summary of the high-level decisions:
* There is a new streaming interface to emit optimization remarks.
E.g. for the inliner remark above:
ORE.emit(DiagnosticInfoOptimizationRemarkMissed(
DEBUG_TYPE, "NotInlined", &I)
<< NV("Callee", Callee) << " will not be inlined into "
<< NV("Caller", CS.getCaller()) << setIsVerbose());
NV stands for named value and allows the YAML client to process a remark
using its name (NotInlined) and the named arguments (Callee and Caller)
without parsing the text of the message.
Subsequent patches will update ORE users to use the new streaming API.
* I am using YAML I/O for writing the YAML file. YAML I/O requires you
to specify reading and writing at once but reading is highly non-trivial
for some of the more complex LLVM types. Since it's not clear that we
(ever) want to use LLVM to parse this YAML file, the code supports and
asserts that we're writing only.
On the other hand, I did experiment that the class hierarchy starting at
DiagnosticInfoOptimizationBase can be mapped back from YAML generated
here (see D24479).
* The YAML stream is stored in the LLVM context.
* In the example, we can probably further specify the IR value used,
i.e. print "Function" rather than "Value".
* As before hotness is computed in the analysis pass instead of
DiganosticInfo. This avoids the layering problem since BFI is in
Analysis while DiagnosticInfo is in IR.

This patch improves thinlto importer
by importing 3x larger functions that are called from hot block.
I compared performance with the trunk on spec, and there
were about 2% on povray and 3.33% on milc. These results seems
to be consistant and match the results Teresa got with her simple
heuristic. Some benchmarks got slower but I think they are just
noisy (mcf, xalancbmki, omnetpp)- running the benchmarks again with
more iterations to confirm. Geomean of all benchmarks including the noisy ones
were about +0.02%.
I see much better improvement on google branch with Easwaran patch
for pgo callsite inlining (the inliner actually inline those big functions)
Over all I see +0.5% improvement, and I get +8.65% on povray.
So I guess we will see much bigger change when Easwaran patch will land
(it depends on new pass manager), but it is still worth putting this to trunk
before it.
Implementation details changes:
- Removed CallsiteCount.
- ProfileCount got replaced by Hotness
- hot-import-multiplier is set to 3.0 for now,
didn't have time to tune it up, but I see that we get most of the interesting
functions with 3, so there is no much performance difference with higher, and
binary size doesn't grow as much as with 10.0.

manager, including both plumbing and logic to handle function pass
updates.
There are three fundamentally tied changes here:
1) Plumbing *some* mechanism for updating the CGSCC pass manager as the
CG changes while passes are running.
2) Changing the CGSCC pass manager infrastructure to have support for
the underlying graph to mutate mid-pass run.
3) Actually updating the CG after function passes run.
I can separate them if necessary, but I think its really useful to have
them together as the needs of #3 drove #2, and that in turn drove #1.
The plumbing technique is to extend the "run" method signature with
extra arguments. We provide the call graph that intrinsically is
available as it is the basis of the pass manager's IR units, and an
output parameter that records the results of updating the call graph
during an SCC passes's run. Note that "...UpdateResult" isn't a *great*
name here... suggestions very welcome.
I tried a pretty frustrating number of different data structures and such
for the innards of the update result. Every other one failed for one
reason or another. Sometimes I just couldn't keep the layers of
complexity right in my head. The thing that really worked was to just
directly provide access to the underlying structures used to walk the
call graph so that their updates could be informed by the *particular*
nature of the change to the graph.
The technique for how to make the pass management infrastructure cope
with mutating graphs was also something that took a really, really large
number of iterations to get to a place where I was happy. Here are some
of the considerations that drove the design:
- We operate at three levels within the infrastructure: RefSCC, SCC, and
Node. In each case, we are working bottom up and so we want to
continue to iterate on the "lowest" node as the graph changes. Look at
how we iterate over nodes in an SCC running function passes as those
function passes mutate the CG. We continue to iterate on the "lowest"
SCC, which is the one that continues to contain the function just
processed.
- The call graph structure re-uses SCCs (and RefSCCs) during mutation
events for the *highest* entry in the resulting new subgraph, not the
lowest. This means that it is necessary to continually update the
current SCC or RefSCC as it shifts. This is really surprising and
subtle, and took a long time for me to work out. I actually tried
changing the call graph to provide the opposite behavior, and it
breaks *EVERYTHING*. The graph update algorithms are really deeply
tied to this particualr pattern.
- When SCCs or RefSCCs are split apart and refined and we continually
re-pin our processing to the bottom one in the subgraph, we need to
enqueue the newly formed SCCs and RefSCCs for subsequent processing.
Queuing them presents a few challenges:
1) SCCs and RefSCCs use wildly different iteration strategies at
a high level. We end up needing to converge them on worklist
approaches that can be extended in order to be able to handle the
mutations.
2) The order of the enqueuing need to remain bottom-up post-order so
that we don't get surprising order of visitation for things like
the inliner.
3) We need the worklists to have set semantics so we don't duplicate
things endlessly. We don't need a *persistent* set though because
we always keep processing the bottom node!!!! This is super, super
surprising to me and took a long time to convince myself this is
correct, but I'm pretty sure it is... Once we sink down to the
bottom node, we can't re-split out the same node in any way, and
the postorder of the current queue is fixed and unchanging.
4) We need to make sure that the "current" SCC or RefSCC actually gets
enqueued here such that we re-visit it because we continue
processing a *new*, *bottom* SCC/RefSCC.
- We also need the ability to *skip* SCCs and RefSCCs that get merged
into a larger component. We even need the ability to skip *nodes* from
an SCC that are no longer part of that SCC.
This led to the design you see in the patch which uses SetVector-based
worklists. The RefSCC worklist is always empty until an update occurs
and is just used to handle those RefSCCs created by updates as the
others don't even exist yet and are formed on-demand during the
bottom-up walk. The SCC worklist is pre-populated from the RefSCC, and
we push new SCCs onto it and blacklist existing SCCs on it to get the
desired processing.
We then *directly* update these when updating the call graph as I was
never able to find a satisfactory abstraction around the update
strategy.
Finally, we need to compute the updates for function passes. This is
mostly used as an initial customer of all the update mechanisms to drive
their design to at least cover some real set of use cases. There are
a bunch of interesting things that came out of doing this:
- It is really nice to do this a function at a time because that
function is likely hot in the cache. This means we want even the
function pass adaptor to support online updates to the call graph!
- To update the call graph after arbitrary function pass mutations is
quite hard. We have to build a fairly comprehensive set of
data structures and then process them. Fortunately, some of this code
is related to the code for building the cal graph in the first place.
Unfortunately, very little of it makes any sense to share because the
nature of what we're doing is so very different. I've factored out the
one part that made sense at least.
- We need to transfer these updates into the various structures for the
CGSCC pass manager. Once those were more sanely worked out, this
became relatively easier. But some of those needs necessitated changes
to the LazyCallGraph interface to make it significantly easier to
extract the changed SCCs from an update operation.
- We also need to update the CGSCC analysis manager as the shape of the
graph changes. When an SCC is merged away we need to clear analyses
associated with it from the analysis manager which we didn't have
support for in the analysis manager infrsatructure. New SCCs are easy!
But then we have the case that the original SCC has its shape changed
but remains in the call graph. There we need to *invalidate* the
analyses associated with it.
- We also need to invalidate analyses after we *finish* processing an
SCC. But the analyses we need to invalidate here are *only those for
the newly updated SCC*!!! Because we only continue processing the
bottom SCC, if we split SCCs apart the original one gets invalidated
once when its shape changes and is not processed farther so its
analyses will be correct. It is the bottom SCC which continues being
processed and needs to have the "normal" invalidation done based on
the preserved analyses set.
All of this is mostly background and context for the changes here.
Many thanks to all the reviewers who helped here. Especially Sanjoy who
caught several interesting bugs in the graph algorithms, David, Sean,
and others who all helped with feedback.

minimal and boring form than the old pass manager's version.
This pass does the very minimal amount of work necessary to inline
functions declared as always-inline. It doesn't support a wide array of
things that the legacy pass manager did support, but is alse ... about
20 lines of code. So it has that going for it. Notably things this
doesn't support:
- Array alloca merging
- To support the above, bottom-up inlining with careful history
tracking and call graph updates
- DCE of the functions that become dead after this inlining.
- Inlining through call instructions with the always_inline attribute.
Instead, it focuses on inlining functions with that attribute.
The first I've omitted because I'm hoping to just turn it off for the
primary pass manager. If that doesn't pan out, I can add it here but it
will be reasonably expensive to do so.
The second should really be handled by running global-dce after the
inliner. I don't want to re-implement the non-trivial logic necessary to
do comdat-correct DCE of functions. This means the -O0 pipeline will
have to be at least 'always-inline,global-dce', but that seems
reasonable to me. If others are seriously worried about this I'd like to
hear about it and understand why. Again, this is all solveable by
factoring that logic into a utility and calling it here, but I'd like to
wait to do that until there is a clear reason why the existing
pass-based factoring won't work.
The final point is a serious one. I can fairly easily add support for
this, but it seems both costly and a confusing construct for the use
case of the always inliner running at -O0. This attribute can of course
still impact the normal inliner easily (although I find that
a questionable re-use of the same attribute). I've started a discussion
to sort out what semantics we want here and based on that can figure out
if it makes sense ta have this complexity at O0 or not.
One other advantage of this design is that it should be quite a bit
faster due to checking for whether the function is a viable candidate
for inlining exactly once per function instead of doing it for each call
site.
Anyways, hopefully a reasonable starting point for this pass.

This is off for now while testing can take place to make sure that in
fact we do sufficient stack coloring to fully obviate the manual alloca
array merging.
Some context on why we should be using stack coloring rather than
merging allocas in this way:
LLVM relies very heavily on analyzing pointers as coming from different
allocas in order to make aliasing decisions. These are some of the most
powerful aliasing signals available in LLVM. So merging allocas is an
extremely destructive operation on the LLVM IR -- it takes away highly
valuable and hard to reconstruct information.
As a consequence, inlined functions which happen to have array allocas
that this pattern matches will fail to be properly interleaved unless
SROA manages to hoist everything to an SSA register. Instead, the
inliner will have added an unnecessary dependence that one inlined
function execute after the other because they will have been rewritten
to refer to the same memory.
All that said, folks will reasonably want some time to experiment here
and make sure there are no significant regressions. A flag should give
us an easy knob to test.
For more context, see the thread here:

Summary:
copypasta doc of ImportedFunctionsInliningStatistics class
\brief Calculate and dump ThinLTO specific inliner stats.
The main statistics are:
(1) Number of inlined imported functions,
(2) Number of imported functions inlined into importing module (indirect),
(3) Number of non imported functions inlined into importing module
(indirect).
The difference between first and the second is that first stat counts
all performed inlines on imported functions, but the second one only the
functions that have been eventually inlined to a function in the importing
module (by a chain of inlines). Because llvm uses bottom-up inliner, it is
possible to e.g. import function `A`, `B` and then inline `B` to `A`,
and after this `A` might be too big to be inlined into some other function
that calls it. It calculates this statistic by building graph, where
the nodes are functions, and edges are performed inlines and then by marking
the edges starting from not imported function.
If `Verbose` is set to true, then it also dumps statistics
per each inlined function, sorted by the greatest inlines count like
- number of performed inlines
- number of performed inlines to importing module

promotion in the backends.

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.

StratifiedSets (as implemented) is very fast, but its accuracy is also

Long-term, we want to end up in a place where CFLSteens is queried
first; if it can provide an answer, great (since queries are basically

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).

If a local_unnamed_addr attribute is attached to a global, the address
is known to be insignificant within the module. It is distinct from the
existing unnamed_addr attribute in that it only describes a local property
of the module rather than a global property of the symbol.
This attribute is intended to be used by the code generator and LTO to allow
the linker to decide whether the global needs to be in the symbol table. It is
possible to exclude a global from the symbol table if three things are true:
- This attribute is present on every instance of the global (which means that
the normal rule that the global must have a unique address can be broken without
being observable by the program by performing comparisons against the global's
address)
- The global has linkonce_odr linkage (which means that each linkage unit must have
its own copy of the global if it requires one, and the copy in each linkage unit
must be the same)
- It is a constant or a function (which means that the program cannot observe that
the unique-address rule has been broken by writing to the global)
Although this attribute could in principle be computed from the module
contents, LTO clients (i.e. linkers) will normally need to be able to compute
this property as part of symbol resolution, and it would be inefficient to
materialize every module just to compute it.

require some documentation.
Once there is proper documentation in place we can put up a list of

I will however be taking personal responsibility for ensuring that the

`git grep "<the string in the bullet point below>"` to find the pass):

(TODO: give more advice here e.g. if pass holds state or something)
2. Rename the old pass class.
llvm/lib/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.cpp
Rename class ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrs -> ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsLegacyPass
in preparation for adding a class ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrs as the pass in the new PM.
(edit: actually wait what? The new class name will be
ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass, so it doesn't conflict. So this step is
sort of useless churn).
llvm/include/llvm/InitializePasses.h
llvm/lib/LTO/LTOCodeGenerator.cpp
llvm/lib/Transforms/IPO/IPO.cpp
llvm/lib/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.cpp
Rename initializeReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass -> initializeReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsLegacyPassPass
(note that the "PassPass" thing falls out of `s/ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrs/ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsLegacyPass/`)
Note that the INITIALIZE_PASS macro is what creates this identifier name, so renaming the class requires this renaming too.
Note that createReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass does not need to be
renamed since its name is not generated from the class name.
3. Add the new PM pass class.
In the new PM all passes need to have their
declaration in a header somewhere, so you will often need to add a header.
In this case
llvm/include/llvm/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.h is already there because
PostOrderFunctionAttrsPass was already ported.
The file-level comment from the .cpp file can be used as the file-level
comment for the new header. You may want to tweak the wording slightly
from "this file implements" to "this file provides" or similar.
Add declaration for the new PM pass in this header:
class ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass
: public PassInfoMixin<ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass> {
public:
PreservedAnalyses run(Module &M, AnalysisManager<Module> &AM);
};
Its name should end with `Pass` for consistency (note that this doesn't
collide with the names of most old PM passes). E.g. call it
`<name of the old PM pass>Pass`.
Also, move the doxygen comment from the old PM pass to the declaration of
this class in the header.
Also, include the declaration for the new PM class
`llvm/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.h` at the top of the file (in this case,
it was already done when the other pass in this file was ported).
Now define the `run` method for the new class.
The main things here are:
a) Use AM.getResult<...>(M) to get results instead of `getAnalysis<...>()`
b) If the old PM pass would have returned "false" (i.e. `Changed ==
false`), then you should return PreservedAnalyses::all();
c) In the old PM getAnalysisUsage method, observe the calls
`AU.addPreserved<...>();`.
In the case `Changed == true`, for each preserved analysis you should do
call `PA.preserve<...>()` on a PreservedAnalyses object and return it.
E.g.:
PreservedAnalyses PA;
PA.preserve<CallGraphAnalysis>();
return PA;
Note that calls to skipModule/skipFunction are not supported in the new PM
currently, so optnone and optimization bisect support do not work. You can
just drop those calls for now.
4. Add the pass to the new PM pass registry to make it available in opt.
In llvm/lib/Passes/PassBuilder.cpp add a #include for your header.
`#include "llvm/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.h"`
In this case there is already an include (from when
PostOrderFunctionAttrsPass was ported).
Add your pass to llvm/lib/Passes/PassRegistry.def
In this case, I added
`MODULE_PASS("rpo-functionattrs", ReversePostOrderFunctionAttrsPass())`
The string is from the `INITIALIZE_PASS*` macros used in the old pass
manager.
Then choose a test that uses the pass and use the new PM `-passes=...` to
run it.
E.g. in this case there is a test that does:
; RUN: opt < %s -basicaa -functionattrs -rpo-functionattrs -S | FileCheck %s
I have added the line:
; RUN: opt < %s -aa-pipeline=basic-aa -passes='require<targetlibinfo>,cgscc(function-attrs),rpo-functionattrs' -S | FileCheck %s
The `-aa-pipeline=basic-aa` and
`require<targetlibinfo>,cgscc(function-attrs)` are what is needed to run
functionattrs in the new PM (note that in the new PM "functionattrs"
becomes "function-attrs" for some reason). This is just pulled from
`readattrs.ll` which contains the change from when functionattrs was ported
to the new PM.
Adding rpo-functionattrs causes the pass that was just ported to run.

Instead of directly using MaxFunctionCount and function entry count to determine callee hotness, use the isHotFunction/isColdFunction methods provided by ProfileSummaryInfo.

Summary:
The module pass pipeline includes a late LICM run after loop
unrolling. LCSSA is implicitly run as a pass dependency of LICM. However no
cleanup pass was run after this, so the LCSSA nodes ended in the optimized output.

The assumption, made in insert() that weak functions are always inserted after strong functions,
is only true in the first round of adding functions.
In subsequent rounds this is no longer guaranteed , because we might remove a strong function from the tree (because it's modified) and add it later,
where an equivalent weak function already exists in the tree.
This change removes the assert in insert() and explicitly enforces a weak->strong order.
This also removes the need of two separate loops in runOnModule().

As a result of D18634 we no longer infer certain attributes on linkonce_odr
functions at compile time, and may only infer them at LTO time. The readnone
attribute in particular is required for virtual constant propagation (part
of whole-program virtual call optimization) to work correctly.
This change moves the whole-program virtual call optimization pass after
the function attribute inference passes, and enables the attribute inference
passes at opt level 1, so that virtual constant propagation has a chance to
work correctly for linkonce_odr functions.

Move the now index-based ODR resolution and internalization routines out
of ThinLTOCodeGenerator.cpp and into either LTO.cpp (index-based
analysis) or FunctionImport.cpp (index-driven optimizations).
This is to enable usage by other linkers.

A volatile load has side effects beyond what callers expect readonly to
signify. For example, it is not safe to reorder two function calls
which each perform a volatile load to the same memory location.
