We skipped over ReturnInsts which didn't return an argument which would

This reverts also r275029, "Update Clang tests after adding inference for the returned argument attribute"
It broke LTO build. Seems miscompilation.
llvm-svn: 275756
Summary:
To enable profile-guided indirect call promotion in ThinLTO mode, we
simply add call graph edges for each profitable target from the profile
to the summaries, then the summary-guided importing will consider the
callee for importing as usual.
Also we need to enable the indirect call promotion pass creation in the
PassManagerBuilder when PerformThinLTO=true (we are in the ThinLTO
backend), so that the newly imported functions are considered for
promotion in the backends.
The IC promotion profiles refer to callees by GUID, which required
adding GUIDs to the per-module VST in bitcode (and assigning them
valueIds similar to how they are assigned valueIds in the combined
index).

This patch adds a selected set of cleanup passes including a pre-inline pass
before LLVM IR PGO instrumentation. The inline is only intended to apply those
obvious/trivial ones before instrumentation so that much less instrumentation
is needed to get better profiling information. This will drastically improve
the instrumented code performance for large C++ applications. Another benefit
is the context sensitive counts that can potentially improve the PGO
optimization.

Summary:
For sample-based PGO, using BFI to calculate callsite count is sometime not accurate. This is because with sampling based approach, if a callsite resides in a hot loop deeply nested in a bunch of cold branches, the callsite's BFI frequency would be inaccurately calculated due to lack of samples in the cold branch.
E.g.
if (A1 && A2 && A3 && ..... && A10) {
for (i=0; i < 100000000; i++) {
callsite();
}
}
Assume that A1 to A100 are all 100% taken, and callsite has 1000 samples and thus is considerred hot. Because the loop's trip count is huge, it's normal that all branches outside the loop has no sample at all. As a result, we can only use static branch probability to derive the the frequency of the loop header. Assuming that static heuristic thinks each branch is 50% taken, then the count calculated from BFI will be 1/(2^10) of the actual value.
In order to get more accurate callsite count, we directly annotate the weight on the call instruction, and directly use it when checking callsite hotness.
Note that this mechanism can also be shared by instrumentation based callsite hotness analysis. The side benefit is that it breaks the dependency from Inliner to BFI as call count is embedded in the IR.

StratifiedSets (as implemented) is very fast, but its accuracy is also
limited. If we take a more aggressive andersens-like approach, we can be
way more accurate, but we'll also end up being slower.
So, we've decided to split CFLAA into CFLSteensAA and CFLAndersAA.
Long-term, we want to end up in a place where CFLSteens is queried
first; if it can provide an answer, great (since queries are basically
map lookups). Otherwise, we'll fall back to CFLAnders, BasicAA, etc.
This patch splits everything out so we can try to do something like
that when we get a reasonable CFLAnders implementation.

This actually uncovered a surprisingly large chain of ultimately unused
TLI args.
From what I can gather, this argument is a remnant of when
isKnownNonNull would look at the TLI directly.
The current approach seems to be that InferFunctionAttrs runs early in
the pipeline and uses TLI to annotate the TLI-dependent non-null
information as return attributes.
This also removes the dependence of functionattrs on TLI altogether.

SimplifyCFG had logic to insert calls to llvm.trap for two very
particular IR patterns: stores and invokes of undef/null.
While InstCombine canonicalizes certain undefined behavior IR patterns
to stores of undef, phase ordering means that this cannot be relied upon
in general.
There are much better tools than llvm.trap: UBSan and ASan.
N.B. I could be argued into reverting this change if a clear argument as
to why it is important that we synthesize llvm.trap for stores, I'd be
hard pressed to see why it'd be useful for invokes...

This intrinsic safely loads a function pointer from a virtual table pointer
using type metadata. This intrinsic is used to implement control flow integrity
in conjunction with virtual call optimization. The virtual call optimization
pass will optimize away llvm.type.checked.load intrinsics associated with
devirtualized calls, thereby removing the type check in cases where it is
not needed to enforce the control flow integrity constraint.
This patch also introduces the capability to copy type metadata between
global variables, and teaches the virtual call optimization pass to do so.

The bitset metadata currently used in LLVM has a few problems:
1. It has the wrong name. The name "bitset" refers to an implementation
detail of one use of the metadata (i.e. its original use case, CFI).
This makes it harder to understand, as the name makes no sense in the
context of virtual call optimization.
2. It is represented using a global named metadata node, rather than
being directly associated with a global. This makes it harder to
manipulate the metadata when rebuilding global variables, summarise it
as part of ThinLTO and drop unused metadata when associated globals are
dropped. For this reason, CFI does not currently work correctly when
both CFI and vcall opt are enabled, as vcall opt needs to rebuild vtable
globals, and fails to associate metadata with the rebuilt globals. As I
understand it, the same problem could also affect ASan, which rebuilds
globals with a red zone.
This patch solves both of those problems in the following way:
1. Rename the metadata to "type metadata". This new name reflects how
the metadata is currently being used (i.e. to represent type information
for CFI and vtable opt). The new name is reflected in the name for the
associated intrinsic (llvm.type.test) and pass (LowerTypeTests).
2. Attach metadata directly to the globals that it pertains to, rather
than using the "llvm.bitsets" global metadata node as we are doing now.
This is done using the newly introduced capability to attach
metadata to global variables (r271348 and r271358).

pass manager passes' `run` methods.
This removes a bunch of SFINAE goop from the pass manager and just
requires pass authors to accept `AnalysisManager<IRUnitT> &` as a dead
argument. This is a small price to pay for the simplicity of the system
as a whole, despite the noise that changing it causes at this stage.
This will also helpfull allow us to make the signature of the run
methods much more flexible for different kinds af passes to support
things like intelligently updating the pass's progression over IR units.
While this touches many, many, files, the changes are really boring.
Mostly made with the help of my trusty perl one liners.

If a local_unnamed_addr attribute is attached to a global, the address
is known to be insignificant within the module. It is distinct from the
existing unnamed_addr attribute in that it only describes a local property
of the module rather than a global property of the symbol.
This attribute is intended to be used by the code generator and LTO to allow
the linker to decide whether the global needs to be in the symbol table. It is
possible to exclude a global from the symbol table if three things are true:
- This attribute is present on every instance of the global (which means that
the normal rule that the global must have a unique address can be broken without
being observable by the program by performing comparisons against the global's
address)
- The global has linkonce_odr linkage (which means that each linkage unit must have
its own copy of the global if it requires one, and the copy in each linkage unit
must be the same)
- It is a constant or a function (which means that the program cannot observe that
the unique-address rule has been broken by writing to the global)
Although this attribute could in principle be computed from the module
contents, LTO clients (i.e. linkers) will normally need to be able to compute
this property as part of symbol resolution, and it would be inefficient to
materialize every module just to compute it.
