This change introduces a new IR intrinsic named `llvm.pseudoprobe` for pseudo-probe block instrumentation. Please refer to https://reviews.llvm.org/D86193 for the whole story.
A pseudo probe is used to collect the execution count of the block where the probe is instrumented. This requires a pseudo probe to be persisting. The LLVM PGO instrumentation also instruments in similar places by placing a counter in the form of atomic read/write operations or runtime helper calls. While these operations are very persisting or optimization-resilient, in theory we can borrow the atomic read/write implementation from PGO counters and cut it off at the end of compilation with all the atomics converted into binary data. This was our initial design and we’ve seen promising sample correlation quality with it. However, the atomics approach has a couple issues:
1. IR Optimizations are blocked unexpectedly. Those atomic instructions are not going to be physically present in the binary code, but since they are on the IR till very end of compilation, they can still prevent certain IR optimizations and result in lower code quality.
2. The counter atomics may not be fully cleaned up from the code stream eventually.
3. Extra work is needed for re-targeting.
We choose to implement pseudo probes based on a special LLVM intrinsic, which is expected to have most of the semantics that comes with an atomic operation but does not block desired optimizations as much as possible. More specifically the semantics associated with the new intrinsic enforces a pseudo probe to be virtually executed exactly the same number of times before and after an IR optimization. The intrinsic also comes with certain flags that are carefully chosen so that the places they are probing are not going to be messed up by the optimizer while most of the IR optimizations still work. The core flags given to the special intrinsic is `IntrInaccessibleMemOnly`, which means the intrinsic accesses memory and does have a side effect so that it is not removable, but is does not access memory locations that are accessible by any original instructions. This way the intrinsic does not alias with any original instruction and thus it does not block optimizations as much as an atomic operation does. We also assign a function GUID and a block index to an intrinsic so that they are uniquely identified and not merged in order to achieve good correlation quality.
Let's now look at an example. Given the following LLVM IR:
```
define internal void @foo2(i32 %x, void (i32)* %f) !dbg !4 {
bb0:
%cmp = icmp eq i32 %x, 0
br i1 %cmp, label %bb1, label %bb2
bb1:
br label %bb3
bb2:
br label %bb3
bb3:
ret void
}
```
The instrumented IR will look like below. Note that each `llvm.pseudoprobe` intrinsic call represents a pseudo probe at a block, of which the first parameter is the GUID of the probe’s owner function and the second parameter is the probe’s ID.
```
define internal void @foo2(i32 %x, void (i32)* %f) !dbg !4 {
bb0:
%cmp = icmp eq i32 %x, 0
call void @llvm.pseudoprobe(i64 837061429793323041, i64 1)
br i1 %cmp, label %bb1, label %bb2
bb1:
call void @llvm.pseudoprobe(i64 837061429793323041, i64 2)
br label %bb3
bb2:
call void @llvm.pseudoprobe(i64 837061429793323041, i64 3)
br label %bb3
bb3:
call void @llvm.pseudoprobe(i64 837061429793323041, i64 4)
ret void
}
```

If both OpA and OpB is an add with NSW/NUW and with the same LHS operand,
we can guarantee that the transformation is safe if we can prove that OpA
won't overflow when IdxDiff added to the RHS of OpA.

Now that load/store alignment is required, we no longer need most
of them. Also switch the getLoadStoreAlignment() helper to return
Align instead of MaybeAlign.
Essentially, fold OrderedBasicBlock into BasicBlock, and make it
auto-invalidate the instruction ordering when new instructions are
added. Notably, we don't need to invalidate it when removing
instructions, which is helpful when a pass mostly delete dead
instructions rather than transforming them.
The downside is that Instruction grows from 56 bytes to 64 bytes. The
resulting LLVM code is substantially simpler and automatically handles
invalidation, which makes me think that this is the right speed and size
tradeoff.
The important change is in SymbolTableTraitsImpl.h, where the numbering
is invalidated. Everything else should be straightforward.
We probably want to implement a fancier re-numbering scheme so that
local updates don't invalidate the ordering, but I plan for that to be
future work, maybe for someone else.

This is apparently worse than 1-byte alignment. This does not attempt
to decompose 2-byte aligned wide stores, but will stop trying to
produce them.
Also fix bug in LoadStoreVectorizer which was decreasing the alignment
and vectorizing stack accesses. It was assuming a stack object was an
alloca that could have its base alignment changed, which is not true
if the pointer is derived from a function argument.
This file lists every pass in LLVM, and is included by Pass.h, which is
very popular. Every time we add, remove, or rename a pass in LLVM, it
caused lots of recompilation.
I found this fact by looking at this table, which is sorted by the
number of times a file was changed over the last 100,000 git commits
multiplied by the number of object files that depend on it in the
current checkout:

to reflect the new license.
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
repository.

This was checking the hardcoded address space 0 for the stack.
Additionally, this should be checking for legality with

In some cases LSV sees (load/store _ (select _ <pointer expression>
<pointer expression>)) patterns in input IR, often due to sinking and
other forms of CFG simplification, sometimes interspersed with
bitcasts and all-constant-indices GEPs. With this
patch`areConsecutivePointers` method would attempt to handle select
instructions. This leads to an increased number of successful
vectorizations.
Technically, select instructions could appear in index arithmetic as
well, however, we don't see those in our test suites / benchmarks.
Also, there is a lot more freedom in IR shapes computing integral
indices in general than in what's common in pointer computations, and
it appears that it's quite unreliable to do anything short of making
select instructions first class citizens of Scalar Evolution, which
for the purposes of this patch is most definitely an overkill.

This is mostly a preparation work for adding a limited support for
select instructions. It proved to be difficult to do due to size and
irregularity of Vectorizer::isConsecutiveAccess, this is fixed here I
believe.
It also turned out that these changes make it simpler to finish one of
the TODOs and fix a number of other small issues, namely:
1. Looking through bitcasts to a type of a different size (requires
careful tracking of the original load/store size and some math
converting sizes in bytes to expected differences in indices of GEPs).
2. Reusing partial analysis of pointers done by first attempt in proving
them consecutive instead of starting from scratch. This added limited
support for nested GEPs co-existing with difficult sext/zext
instructions. This also required a careful handling of negative
differences between constant parts of offsets.
3. Handing a case where the first pointer index is not an add, but
something else (a function parameter for instance).
I observe an increased number of successful vectorizations on a large
set of shader programs. Only few shaders are affected, but those that
are affected sport >5% less loads and stores than before the patch.

Summary: Currently, isConsecutiveAccess() detects two pointers(PtrA and PtrB) as consecutive by
comparing PtrB with BaseDelta+PtrA. This works when both pointers are factorized or
both of them are not factorized. But isConsecutiveAccess() fails if one of the
pointers is factorized but the other one is not.
Here is an example:
PtrA = 4 * (A + B)
PtrB = 4 + 4A + 4B
This patch uses getMinusSCEV() to compute the distance between two pointers.
getMinusSCEV() allows combining the expressions and computing the simplified distance.

The DEBUG() macro is very generic so it might clash with other projects.
The renaming was done as follows:
- git grep -l 'DEBUG' | xargs sed -i 's/\bDEBUG\s\?(/LLVM_DEBUG(/g'
- git diff -U0 master | ../clang/tools/clang-format/clang-format-diff.py -i -p1 -style LLVM
- Manual change to APInt
- Manually chage DOCS as regex doesn't match it.
In the transition period the DEBUG() macro is still present and aliased
to the LLVM_DEBUG() one.

Making a width of GEP Index, which is used for address calculation, to be one of the pointer properties in the Data Layout.
p[address space]:size:memory_size:alignment:pref_alignment:index_size_in_bits.
The index size parameter is optional, if not specified, it is equal to the pointer size.
Till now, the InstCombiner normalized GEPs and extended the Index operand to the pointer width.
It works fine if you can convert pointer to integer for address calculation and all registered targets do this.
But some ISAs have very restricted instruction set for the pointer calculation. During discussions were desided to retrieve information for GEP index from the Data Layout.

This patch implements Chandler's idea [0] for supporting languages that
require support for infinite loops with side effects, such as Rust, providing
part of a solution to bug 965 [1].
Specifically, it adds an `llvm.sideeffect()` intrinsic, which has no actual
effect, but which appears to optimization passes to have obscure side effects,
such that they don't optimize away loops containing it. It also teaches
several optimization passes to ignore this intrinsic, so that it doesn't
significantly impact optimization in most cases.
As discussed on llvm-dev [2], this patch is the first of two major parts.
The second part, to change LLVM's semantics to have defined behavior
on infinite loops by default, with a function attribute for opting into
potential-undefined-behavior, will be implemented and posted for review in
a separate patch.
