No-return and will-return are exclusive, assuming the latter is more
prominent we can avoid updates of the former unless will-return is not
known for sure.

Before, we eagerly split blocks even if it was not necessary, e.g., they
had a single unreachable instruction and only a single predecessor.
llvm-svn: 374703
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:
There were segfaults as we modified and iterated the instruction maps in
the cache at the same time. This was happening because we created new
instructions while we populated the cache. This fix changes the order
in which we perform these actions. First, the caches for the whole
module are created, then we start to create abstract attributes.
I don't have a unit test but the LLVM test suite exposes this problem.

llvm-svn: 372105
Summary:
Instead of building attributes for internal functions which we do not
update as long as we assume they are dead, we now do not create
attributes until we assume the internal function to be live. This
improves the number of required iterations, as well as the number of
required updates, in real code. On our tests, the results are mixed.

llvm-svn: 370924
Summary:
We create attributes on-demand so we need to check the white list
on-demand. This also unifies the location at which we create,
initialize, and eventually invalidate new abstract attributes.
The tests show mixed results, a few more call site attributes are
determined which can cause more iterations.

Add the no-capture argument attribute deduction to the Attributor
fixpoint framework.
The new string attributed "no-capture-maybe-returned" is introduced to
allow deduction of no-capture through functions that "capture" an
argument but only by "returning" it. It is only used by the Attributor
for testing.

llvm-svn: 370817
Summary:
Instead of recomputing information for call sites we now use the
function information directly. This is always valid and once we have
call site specific information we can improve here.
This patch also bootstraps attributes that are created on-demand through
an initial update call. Information that is known will then directly be
available in the new attribute without causing an iteration delay.
The tests show how this improves the iteration count.

llvm-svn: 370480
Summary:
Until we have proper call-site information we should not recompute
liveness and return information for each call site. This patch directly
uses the function versions and introduces TODOs at the usage sites.
The required iterations to get to the fixpoint are most of the time
reduced by this change and we always avoid work duplication.

Summary:
Try to verify how many iterations we need for a fixpoint in our tests.
This patch adjust the way we count to make it easier to follow. It also
adjusts the bounds to actually account for a fixpoint and not only the
minimum number to pass all checks.

Summary:
To be able to track how many iterations we need to manifest all

explicit. The count is set tightly now and should be kept that way.

For an internal function, if all its call sites are dead, the body of the function is considered dead.

A function is "no-return" if we never reach a return instruction, either
because there are none or the ones that exist are dead.
Test have been adjusted:
- either noreturn was added, or
- noreturn was avoided by modifying the code.
The new noreturn_{sync,async} test make sure we do handle invoke
instructions with a noreturn (and potentially nowunwind) callee
correctly, even in the presence of potential asynchronous exceptions.
llvm-svn: 367948
When we remove instructions cached references could still be live. This
patch avoids removing invoke instructions that are replaced by calls and
instead keeps them around but in a dead block.
llvm-svn: 367933
Summary:
This contains various fixes:
- Explicitly determine and return the next noreturn instruction.
- If an invoke calls a noreturn function which is not nounwind we
keep the unwind destination live. This also means we require an
invoke. Though we can still add the unreachable to the normal
destination block.
- Check if the return instructions are dead after we look for calls
to avoid triggering an optimistic fixpoint in the presence of
assumed liveness information.
- Make the interface work with "const" pointers.
- Some simplifications
While additional tests are included, full coverage is achieved only with
D59978.
