Remove the `--src-root` option from the deprecated llvm-config tool.
None of the llvm-project projects use this option anymore. The value
was only meaningful for in-tree use and usually became no longer correct
once LLVM was installed -- either because it was built in a temporary
directory, or installed from a binary package and built on a different
system entirely. Therefore, third-party tools could not have been
relying on it anyway.
The LLVM_SRC_ROOT #define is left intact, as it is used to compute
includedir when llvm-config is used in-source.

The Assignment Tracking debug-info feature is outlined in this RFC:
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/
rfc-assignment-tracking-a-better-way-of-specifying-variable-locations-in-ir
Add documentation outlining the intent and design.
This adds an initial bit of policy around inclusion of vendor extensions. My intention here is to leave all of the actual decision making to a case by case decision on the regular sync calls, but to spell out some of the pieces we've discussed and (I think) have general agreement on.

The pointsToConstantMemory() method returns true only if the memory pointed to
by the memory location is globally invariant. However, the LLVM memory model
also has the semantic notion of *locally-invariant*: memory that is known to be
invariant for the life of the SSA value representing that pointer. The most
common example of this is a pointer argument that is marked readonly noalias,
which the Rust compiler frequently emits.
It'd be desirable for LLVM to treat locally-invariant memory the same way as
globally-invariant memory when it's safe to do so. This patch implements that,
by introducing the concept of a *ModRefInfo mask*. A ModRefInfo mask is a bound
on the Mod/Ref behavior of an instruction that writes to a memory location,
based on the knowledge that the memory is globally-constant memory (in which
case the mask is NoModRef) or locally-constant memory (in which case the mask
is Ref). ModRefInfo values for an instruction can be combined with the
ModRefInfo mask by simply using the & operator. Where appropriate, this patch
has modified uses of pointsToConstantMemory() to instead examine the mask.
The most notable optimization change I noticed with this patch is that now
redundant loads from readonly noalias pointers can be eliminated across calls,
even when the pointer is captured. Internally, before this patch,
AliasAnalysis was assigning Ref to reads from constant memory; now AA can
assign NoModRef, which is a tighter bound.

This was previously attempted in 2016 by colinl's D18770, but LLD tests
were missed, which caused the change to be reverted.
Setting --print-imm-hex by default brings llvm-objdump's behavior closer
in line with objdump, and it makes it easier to read addresses and
alignment from the disassembly. It may make non-address immediates
harder to interpret, but it still seems the better default, barring more
context-sensitive base selection logic.

Although i32 type is illegal in the backend, RV64I has pretty good support for i32 types by using W instructions.
By adding n32 to the DataLayout string, middle end optimizations will consider i32 to be a native type. One known effect of this is enabling LoopStrengthReduce on loops with i32 induction variables. This can be beneficial because C/C++ code often has loops with i32 induction variables due to the use of `int` or `unsigned int`.
If this patch exposes performance issues, those are better addressed by tuning LSR or other passes.

This brings it in line with recommended practice after the
introduction of sub-operand naming in a538d1f13a, and the
deprecation of positional argument matching in 5351878ba1.
This patch adds base 2 logarithm that returns integer result. I initially wanted to name it `!log2`,
but numbers are not permitted in the name. The documentation makes sure to clarify that it is
base 2 since it is not explicit in the operator name.

The current implementation outputs JSON in the following way:
[{'<filename>':{'FileSummary':{},...}}]
Using the filename as a key makes processing the JSON data awkward, and
should be avoided. This patch removes that outer key, since the
'FileSummary' data also includes a 'File' field, and so we lose no data.

llvm-debuginfo-analyzer is a command line tool that processes debug
info contained in a binary file and produces a debug information
format agnostic “Logical View”, which is a high-level semantic
representation of the debug info, independent of the low-level
format.
The code has been divided into the following patches:
1) Interval tree
2) Driver and documentation
3) Logical elements
4) Locations and ranges
5) Select elements
6) Warning and internal options

LoopFlatten has been in the code base off by default for years, but this
enables it to run by default. Downstream this has been running for
years, so it has been exposed to quite some code. Then around the time
we switched to the NPM, several fixes went in related to updating the
MemorySSA state and we moved it to a loop pass manager, which both
helped preventing rerunning certain analysis passes, and thus helped a
bit with compile-times.
About compile-times, adding a pass isn't free, but this should see only
very minor increases. The pass is relatively simple and there shouldn't
be anything algorithmically expensive because all it does is looking at
inner/outer loops and it checks assumptions on loop increments and
indices. If we see increases, I expect this to mainly come from
invalidation of analysis info, and perhaps subsequent passes to trigger
and do more. Despite its simplicity/restrictions, it triggers in most
code-bases, which makes it worth to enable this by default.

Another alternative to fix the thread identification problem in
coroutines.
We plan to fix this problem by unifying memory effecting attributes. See
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-unify-memory-effect-attributes/65579.
But it may be a long-term project. And it is a pity that the coroutines
can't resume in different threads for years. So this one is temporary
fix. It may cause unnecessary performance regression for coroutines. But
correctness are more important. And this one is planned to be reverted
after we are able to unify the memory effecting attributes actually.

In https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/57452, we found that IRTranslator is translating `i1 true` into `i32 -1`.
This is because IRTranslator uses SExt for indices.
In this fix, we change the expected behavior of extractelement's index, moving from SExt to ZExt.
This change includes both documentation, SelectionDAG and IRTranslator.
We also included a test for AMDGPU, updated tests for AArch64, Mips, PowerPC, RISCV, VE, WebAssembly and X86

This updates the `--function-starts` argument to now accept 3 different
modes, `addrs` for just printing the addresses of the function starts
(previous behavior), `names` for just printing the names of the function
starts, and `both` to print them both side by side.
In general if you're debugging function starts issues it's useful to see
the symbol name alongside the address. This also mirrors Apple's
`dyldinfo -function_starts` command which prints both.

We've recently had issues appropriately notifying users and
stakeholders of changes to projects that may be potentially disruptive
when upgrading. This led to discussion on Discourse about how to
improve the situation, which can be found at:
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-add-new-discourse-channel-for-potentially-breaking-disruptive-changes-for-clang/65251
Ultimately, it sounds like we want to encourage three things:
* Alert vendors during the code review so they can provide early
feedback on potentially breaking changes that would be unacceptable
for them.
* Alert vendors and users after committing the changes so they can
perform pre-release testing on a completed change to determine if it
causes unreasonable problems for them.
* Alert users more clearly through the release notes so that it's
easier to determine how disruptive an upgrade might be.
This updates the developer policy accordingly.
