This is a patch to explicitly mark the size parameter of allocator functions like malloc/realloc/... as noundef.
For C/C++: undef can be created from reading an uninitialized variable or padding.
Calling a function with uninitialized variable is already UB.
Calling malloc with padding value is.. something that's not expected. Padding bits may appear in a coerced aggregate, which doesn't apply to malloc's size.
Therefore, malloc's size can be marked as noundef.
For transformations that introduce malloc/realloc/..: I ran LLVM unit tests with an updated Alive2 semantics, and found no regression, so it seems okay.

These attributes were all incorrect or inappropriate for LLVM to infer:
- inaccessiblememonly is generally wrong; user replacement operator new
can access memory that's visible to the caller, as can a new_handler
function.
- willreturn is generally wrong; a custom new_handler is not guaranteed
to terminate.
- noalias is inappropriate: Clang has a flag to determine whether this
attribute should be present and adds it itself when appropriate.
- noundef and nonnull on the return value should be specified by the
frontend on all 'operator new' functions if we want them, not here.
In any case, inferring attributes on functions declared 'nobuiltin' (as
these are when Clang emits them) seems questionable.
Several of the new attributes here were incorrect, and even the ones
that are generally correct were being added even to nobuiltin calls.
This reverts commit bb3f169b59.
If a function doesn't contain loops and does not call non-willreturn
functions, then it is willreturn. Loops are detected by checking
for backedges in the function. We don't attempt to handle finite
loops at this point.

This patch marks some library functions as willreturn. On the first pass, I
excluded most functions that interact with streams/the filesystem.
Along with willreturn, it also adds nounwind to a set of math functions.
There probably are a few additional attributes we can add for those, but
that should be done separately.

This patch adds noundef to the returned pointers of allocators (malloc, calloc, ...)
and the pointer argument of free.
The returned pointer of allocators cannot be poison or (partially) undef.
Since the pointer that is given to free should precisely have zero offset,
it cannot be poison or (partially) undef too.
For the size arguments of allocators, noundef wasn't attached simply because
I wasn't sure whether attaching it is okay or not.

This patch follows D85345 and adds more noundef attributes to return values/arguments of library functions
that are mostly about accessing the file system or processes.
A few functions like `chmod` or `times` use typedef `mode_t` and `clock_t`.
They are neither struct nor union, so they cannot contain undef even if they're lowered to iN in IR. So, it is fine to add noundef to them.
- clock_t's actual type is size_t (C17, 7.27.1.3), so it isn't struct or union.
- For mode_t, either int or long is used in practice because programmers use bit manipulation. So, I think it is okay that it's never aggregate in practice.
After this patch, the remaining library functions are those that eagerly participate in optimizations: they can be removed, reordered, or
introduced by a transformation from primitive IR operations.
For them, a few testings is needed, since it may not be valid to add noundef anymore even if C standard says it's okay.

This patch adds noundef to return value and arguments of standard I/O functions.
With this patch, passing undef or poison to the functions becomes undefined
behavior in LLVM IR. Since undef/poison is lowered from operations having UB in C/C++,
passing undef to them was already UB in source.
With this patch, the functions cannot return undef or poison anymore as well.
According to C17 standard, ungetc/ungetwc/fgetpos/ftell can generate unspecified
value; 3.19.3 says unspecified value is a valid value of the relevant type,
and using unspecified value is unspecified behavior, which is not UB, so it
cannot be undef (using undef is UB when e.g. it is used at branch condition).
— The value of the file position indicator after a successful call to the ungetc function for a text stream, or the ungetwc function for any stream, until all pushed-back characters are read or discarded (7.21.7.10, 7.29.3.10).
— The details of the value stored by the fgetpos function (7.21.9.1).
— The details of the value returned by the ftell function for a text stream (7.21.9.4).
In the long run, most of the functions listed in BuildLibCalls should have noundefs; to remove redundant diffs which will anyway disappear in the future, I added noundef to a few more non-I/O functions as well.

Summary:
This patch moves the test cases related to Attributor to `Transforms/Attributor` folder.
We have used `Transforms/FunctionAttrs` as the primary folder for Attributor test but we need to change testing way now.
For the test cases which I think functionattrs doesn't infer anything something like (willreturn, nosync, value-simplify, h2s ..etc), I moved them with the command `git mv`.
For the test cases in which functoinattrs and attributor are tested, I copied the test to the folder and remove the check only used by functoinattrs.

This patch introduces the deduction based on load/store instructions whose pointer operand is a non-inbounds GEP instruction.
For example if we have,
```
void f(int *u){
u[0] = 0;
u[1] = 1;
u[2] = 2;
}
```
then u must be dereferenceable(12).

Summary:
This patch enables us to track GEP instruction in align deduction.
If a pointer `B` is defined as `A+Offset` and known to have alignment `C`, there exists some integer Q such that
```
A + Offset = C * Q = B
```
So we can say that the maximum power of two which is a divisor of gcd(Offset, C) is an alignment.

Before we did not follow casts and geps when we looked at the users of a
pointer in the pointers must-be-executed-context. This caused us to fail
to determine if it was accessed for sure. With this change we follow
such users now.
The above extension exposed problems in getKnownNonNullAndDerefBytesForUse
which did not always check what the base pointer was. We also did not
handle negative offsets as conservative as we have to without explicit
loop handling. Finally, we should not derive a huge number if we access
a pointer that was traversed backwards first.
The problems exposed by this functional change are already tested in the
existing test cases as is the functional change.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D69647
Summary:
In D65186 and related patches, MustBeExecutedContextExplorer is introduced. This enables us to traverse instructions guaranteed to execute from function entry. If we can know the argument is used as `dereferenceable` or `nonnull` in these instructions, we can mark `dereferenceable` or `nonnull` in the argument definition:
1. Memory instruction (similar to D64258)
Trace memory instruction pointer operand. Currently, only inbounds GEPs are traced.
```
define i64* @f(i64* %a) {
entry:
%add.ptr = getelementptr inbounds i64, i64* %a, i64 1
; (because of inbounds GEP we can know that %a is at least dereferenceable(16))
store i64 1, i64* %add.ptr, align 8
ret i64* %add.ptr ; dereferenceable 8 (because above instruction stores into it)
}
```
2. Propagation from callsite (similar to D27855)
If `deref` or `nonnull` are known in call site parameter attributes we can also say that argument also that attribute.
```
declare void @use3(i8* %x, i8* %y, i8* %z);
declare void @use3nonnull(i8* nonnull %x, i8* nonnull %y, i8* nonnull %z);
define void @parent1(i8* %a, i8* %b, i8* %c) {
call void @use3nonnull(i8* %b, i8* %c, i8* %a)
; Above instruction is always executed so we can say that@parent1(i8* nonnnull %a, i8* nonnull %b, i8* nonnull %c)
call void @use3(i8* %c, i8* %a, i8* %b)
ret void
}

Summary:
Right now, when we encounter a string equality check,
e.g. `if (memcmp(a, b, s) == 0)`, we try to expand to a comparison if `s` is a
small compile-time constant, and fall back on calling `memcmp()` else.
This is sub-optimal because memcmp has to compute much more than
equality.
This patch replaces `memcmp(a, b, s) == 0` by `bcmp(a, b, s) == 0` on platforms
that support `bcmp`.
`bcmp` can be made much more efficient than `memcmp` because equality
compare is trivially parallel while lexicographic ordering has a chain
dependency.
