Make the penalty for splitting a region more accurately reflect the cost
of materializing all of the inputs/outputs to/from the region.
This almost entirely eliminates code growth within functions which
undergo splitting in key internal frameworks, and reduces the size of
those frameworks between 2.6% to 3%.

This is the first in a series of patches that attempts to migrate
existing cost instructions to return a new InstructionCost class
in place of a simple integer. This new class is intended to be
as light-weight and simple as possible, with a full range of
arithmetic and comparison operators that largely mirror the same
sets of operations on basic types, such as integers. The main
advantage to using an InstructionCost is that it can encode a
particular cost state in addition to a value. The initial
implementation only has two states - Normal and Invalid - but these
could be expanded over time if necessary. An invalid state can
be used to represent an unknown cost or an instruction that is
prohibitively expensive.
This patch adds the new class and changes the getInstructionCost
interface to return the new class. Other cost functions, such as
getUserCost, etc., will be migrated in future patches as I believe
this to be less disruptive. One benefit of this new class is that
it provides a way to unify many of the magic costs in the codebase
where the cost is set to a deliberately high number to prevent
optimisations taking place, e.g. vectorization. It also provides
a route to represent the extremely high, and unknown, cost of
scalarization of scalable vectors, which is not currently supported.

This patch adds -f[no-]split-cold-code CC1 options to clang. This allows
the splitting pass to be toggled on/off. The current method of passing
`-mllvm -hot-cold-split=true` to clang isn't ideal as it may not compose
correctly (say, with `-O0` or `-Oz`).
To implement the -fsplit-cold-code option, an attribute is applied to
functions to indicate that they may be considered for splitting. This
removes some complexity from the old/new PM pipeline builders, and

This reverts commit 20797989ea.
This patch (https://reviews.llvm.org/D69257) cannot complete a stage2
build due to the change:
```
CI->getCalledFunction()->getName().contains("longjmp")
```
There are several concrete issues here:
- The callee may not be a function, so `getCalledFunction` can assert.
- The called value may not have a name, so `getName` can assert.
- There's no distinction made between "my_longjmp_test_helper" and the
actual longjmp libcall.
At a higher level, there's a serious layering problem here. The
splitting pass makes policy decisions in a general way (e.g. based on
attributes or profile data). Special-casing certain names breaks the
layering. It subverts the work of library maintainers (who may now need
to opt-out of unexpected optimization behavior for any affected
functions) and can lead to inconsistent optimization behavior (as not
all llvm passes special-case ".*longjmp.*" in the same way).
The patch may need significant revision to address these issues.
But the immediate issue is that this crashes while compiling llvm's unit
tests in a stage2 build (due to the `getName` problem).
Add support for (if enabled) splitting cold functions into a separate section
in order to further boost locality of hot code.

An alternate approach is to hide CodeExtractorAnalysisCache from clients
of CodeExtractor, and to recompute the analysis from scratch inside of
CodeExtractor::extractCodeRegion(). This eliminates some redundant work
in the shrinkwrapping legality check. However, some clients continue to
exhibit O(n^2) compile time behavior as computing the analysis is O(n).

When a cold path is outlined, the value tracking in the assumption cache may be
invalidated due to the code motion. We would previously trip an assertion in
subsequent passes (but required the passes to happen in a single run as the
assumption cache is shared across the passes). Invalidating the cache ensures
that we get the correct information when needed with the legacy pass manager as
well.

Resumes that are not reachable from a cleanup landing pad are considered

The main goal of the model is to avoid *increasing* function size, as
that would eradicate any memory locality benefits from splitting. This
happens when:
- There are too many inputs or outputs to the cold region. Argument
materialization and reloads of outputs have a cost.
- The cold region has too many distinct exit blocks, causing a large
switch to be formed in the caller.
- The code size cost of the split code is less than the cost of a
set-up call.
A secondary goal is to prevent excessive overall binary size growth.
With the cost model in place, I experimented to find a splitting
threshold that works well in practice. To make warm & cold code easily
separable for analysis purposes, I moved split functions to a "cold"
section. I experimented with thresholds between [0, 4] and set the
default to the threshold which minimized geomean __text size.
Experiment data from building LNT+externals for X86 (N = 639 programs,
all sizes in bytes):
| Configuration | __text geom size | __cold geom size | TEXT geom size |
| **-Os** | 1736.3 | 0, n=0 | 10961.6 |
| -Os, thresh=0 | 1740.53 | 124.482, n=134 | 11014 |
| -Os, thresh=1 | 1734.79 | 57.8781, n=90 | 10978.6 |
| -Os, thresh=2 | ** 1733.85 ** | 65.6604, n=61 | 10977.6 |
| -Os, thresh=3 | 1733.85 | 65.3071, n=61 | 10977.6 |
| -Os, thresh=4 | 1735.08 | 67.5156, n=54 | 10965.7 |
| **-Oz** | 1554.4 | 0, n=0 | 10153 |
| -Oz, thresh=2 | ** 1552.2 ** | 65.633, n=61 | 10176 |
| **-O3** | 2563.37 | 0, n=0 | 13105.4 |
| -O3, thresh=2 | ** 2559.49 ** | 71.1072, n=61 | 13162.4 |
Picking thresh=2 reduces the geomean __text section size by 0.14% at
-Os, -Oz, and -O3 and causes ~0.2% growth in the TEXT segment. Note that
TEXT size is page-aligned, whereas section sizes are byte-aligned.
Experiment data from building LNT+externals for ARM64 (N = 558 programs,
all sizes in bytes):
| Configuration | __text geom size | __cold geom size | TEXT geom size |
| **-Os** | 1763.96 | 0, n=0 | 42934.9 |
| -Os, thresh=2 | ** 1760.9 ** | 76.6755, n=61 | 42934.9 |
Picking thresh=2 reduces the geomean __text section size by 0.17% at
-Os and causes no growth in the TEXT segment.

Instead of manually computing DT and PDT, we can get the from the pass
manager, which ideally has them already cached. With the new pass
manager, we could even preserve DT/PDT on a per function basis in a
module pass.
I think this also addresses the TODO about re-using the computed DTs for
BFI. IIUC, GetBFI will fetch the DT from the pass manager and when we
will fetch the cached version later.

We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and

Prior to r348205, extracting code regions with live output values was

It's currently not safe to outline landingpad instructions (see
llvm.org/PR39917). Like @llvm.eh.typeid.for, the order and content of
previous landingpad instructions in a function alters the lowering of
subsequent landingpads by renumbering type info ID's. Outlining a
landingpad therefore breaks exception handling & unwinding.
llvm-svn: 348870
The splitting pass uses its 'unlikelyExecuted' predicate to statically
decide which blocks are cold.
- Do not treat noreturn calls as if they are cold unless they are actually
marked cold. This is motivated by functions like exit() and longjmp(), which
are not beneficial to outline.
- Do not treat inline asm as an outlining barrier. In practice asm("") is
frequently used to inhibit basic block merging; enabling outlining in this case
results in substantial memory savings.
- Treat invokes of cold functions as cold.
As a drive-by, remove the 'exceptionHandlingFunctions' predicate, because it's
no longer needed. The pass can identify & outline blocks dominated by EH pads,
so there's no need to special-case __cxa_begin_catch etc.

Algorithm: Identify maximal cold regions and put them in a worklist. If
a candidate region overlaps with another, discard it. While the worklist
is full, remove a single-entry sub-region from the worklist and attempt
to outline it. By the non-overlap property, this should not invalidate
parts of the domtree pertaining to other outlining regions.
Testing: LNT results on X86 are clean. With test-suite + externals, llvm
outlines 134KB pre-patch, and 352KB post-patch (+ ~2.6x). The file
483.xalancbmk/src/Constants.cpp stands out as an extreme case where llvm
outlines over 100 times in some functions (mostly EH paths). There was
not a significant performance impact pre vs. post-patch.

the Analysis, for example, BlockFrequencyInfo

Another change is renaming isHotBB and isColdBB to isHotBlock and isColdBlock,
respectively. Most methods use BB as the argument of variable names while
methods usually refer to Basic Blocks as Blocks, instead of BB. For example,
Function::getEntryBlock, Loop:getExitBlock, etc.
