The key part of this is ensuring that name prefixes remain in a Twine
form until we get to a point where we can nuke them under NDEBUG. This
is tricky using the old APIs as they played fast and loose with Twine,
which is prone to serious error. The inserter is much cleaner as it is
actually in the call stack leading to the setName call, and so has
a good opportunity to prepend the prefix.
This matters more than you might imagine because most runs over an
alloca find a single partition, and rewrite 3 or 4 instructions
referring to it. As a consequence doing this lazily and exclusively with
Twine allows the optimizer to delete more of it and shaves another 2% to
3% off of the release build's SROA run time for PR15412. I also think
the APIs are cleaner, and the use of Twine is more reliable, so
I consider it a win-win despite the churn required to reach this state.

The simplify-libcalls pass implemented a doInitialization hook to infer
function prototype attributes for well-known functions. Given that the
simplify-libcalls pass is going away *and* that the functionattrs pass
is already in place to deduce function attributes, I am moving this logic
to the functionattrs pass. This approach was discussed during patch
review:
http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20121126/157465.html.

This is espcially important because the new SROA pass goes to great
lengths to provide helpful names for debugging, and as a consequence
they can become very slow to render.
Good for between 5% and 15% of the SROA runtime on some slow test cases
such as the one in PR15412.

- it is trivially known to be used inside the loop in a way that can not be optimized away
- there is no use outside of the loop which can take advantage of the computation hoisting

The fundamental problem is that SROA didn't allow for overly wide loads
where the bits past the end of the alloca were masked away and the load
was sufficiently aligned to ensure there is no risk of page fault, or
other trapping behavior. With such widened loads, SROA would delete the
load entirely rather than clamping it to the size of the alloca in order
to allow mem2reg to fire. This was exposed by a test case that neatly
arranged for GVN to run first, widening certain loads, followed by an
inline step, and then SROA which miscompiles the code. However, I see no
reason why this hasn't been plaguing us in other contexts. It seems
deeply broken.
Diagnosing all of the above took all of 10 minutes of debugging. The
really annoying aspect is that fixing this completely breaks the pass.
;] There was an implicit reliance on the fact that no loads or stores
extended past the alloca once we decided to rewrite them in the final
stage of SROA. This was used to encode information about whether the
loads and stores had been split across multiple partitions of the
original alloca. That required threading explicit tracking of whether
a *use* of a partition is split across multiple partitions.
Once that was done, another problem arose: we allowed splitting of
integer loads and stores iff they were loads and stores to the entire
alloca. This is a really arbitrary limitation, and splitting at least
some integer loads and stores is crucial to maximize promotion
opportunities. My first attempt was to start removing the restriction
entirely, but currently that does Very Bad Things by causing *many*
common alloca patterns to be fully decomposed into i8 operations and
lots of or-ing together to produce larger integers on demand. The code
bloat is terrifying. That is still the right end-goal, but substantial
work must be done to either merge partitions or ensure that small i8
values are eagerly merged in some other pass. Sadly, figuring all this
out took essentially all the time and effort here.
So the end result is that we allow splitting only when the load or store
at least covers the alloca. That ensures widened loads and stores don't
hurt SROA, and that we don't rampantly decompose operations more than we
have previously.
All of this was already fairly well tested, and so I've just updated the
tests to cover the wide load behavior. I can add a test that crafts the
pass ordering magic which caused the original PR, but that seems really
brittle and to provide little benefit. The fundamental problem is that
widened loads should Just Work.

* Only apply divide bypass optimization when not optimizing for size.
* Fixed bug caused by constant for 0 value of type Int32,
used dividend type to generate the constant instead.
* For atom x86-64 apply the divide bypass to use 16-bit divides instead of
64-bit divides when operand values are small enough.
* Added lit tests for 64-bit divide bypass.

This is a common pattern with dyn_cast and similar constructs, when the
PHI no longer depends on the select it can often be turned into a simpler
construct or even get hoisted out of the loop.

The 'nobuiltin' attribute is applied to call sites to indicate that LLVM should
not treat the callee function as a built-in function. I.e., it shouldn't try to
replace that function with different code.

the SCEV vector size in LoopStrengthReduce. It is observed that
the BaseRegs vector size is 4 in most cases,
and elements are frequently copied when it is initialized as
SmallVector<const SCEV *, 2> BaseRegs.
Our benchmark results show that the compilation time performance
improved by ~0.5%.

This name change does the following:
1. Causes the function name to use proper ARC terminology.
2. Makes it clear what the function truly does.

The method PerformCodePlacement was doing too much (i.e. 3x loops, lots of
different checking). This refactoring separates the analysis section of the
method into a separate function while leaving the actual code placement and
analysis preparation in PerformCodePlacement.
*NOTE* Really this part of ObjCARC should be refactored out of the main pass
class into its own seperate class/struct. But, it is not time to make that
change yet though (don't want to make such an invasive change without fixing all
of the bugs first).

generic function calls and intrinsics. This is somewhat overlapping with
an existing intrinsic cost method, but that one seems targetted at
vector intrinsics. I'll merge them or separate their names and use cases
in a separate commit.
This sinks the test of 'callIsSmall' down into TTI where targets can
control it. The whole thing feels very hack-ish to me though. I've left
a FIXME comment about the fundamental design problem this presents. It
isn't yet clear to me what the users of this function *really* care
about. I'll have to do more analysis to figure that out. Putting this
here at least provides it access to proper analysis pass tools and other
such. It also allows us to more cleanly implement the baseline cost
interfaces in TTI.
With this commit, it is now theoretically possible to simplify much of
the inline cost analysis's handling of calls by calling through to this
interface. That conversion will have to happen in subsequent commits as
it requires more extensive restructuring of the inline cost analysis.
The CodeMetrics class is now really only in the business of running over
a block of code and aggregating the metrics on that block of code, with
the actual cost evaluation done entirely in terms of TTI.

is free. The whole CodeMetrics API should probably be reworked more, but
this is enough to allow deleting the duplicate code there for computing
whether an instruction is free.
All of the passes using this have been updated to pull in TTI and hand
it to the CodeMetrics stuff. Further, a dead CodeMetrics API
(analyzeFunction) is nuked for lack of users.
