Summary:
This patch is part of 3 patches that together form a single patch, but must be introduced in stages in order not to break things.
The way that LLVM interprets DW_OP_plus in DIExpression nodes is basically that of the DW_OP_plus_uconst operator since LLVM expects an unsigned constant operand. This unnecessarily restricts the DW_OP_plus operator, preventing it from being used to describe the evaluation of runtime values on the expression stack. These patches try to align the semantics of DW_OP_plus and DW_OP_minus with that of the DWARF definition, which pops two elements off the expression stack, performs the operation and pushes the result back on the stack.
This is done in three stages:
• The first patch (LLVM) adds support for DW_OP_plus_uconst.
• The second patch (Clang) contains changes all its uses from DW_OP_plus to DW_OP_plus_uconst.
• The third patch (LLVM) changes the semantics of DW_OP_plus and DW_OP_minus to be in line with its DWARF meaning. This patch includes the bitcode upgrade from legacy DIExpressions.

The default behavior of -Rpass-analysis=loop-vectorizer is to report only the
first reason encountered for not vectorizing, if one is found, at which time the
vectorizer aborts its handling of the loop. This patch allows multiple reasons
for not vectorizing to be identified and reported, at the potential expense of
additional compile-time, under allowExtraAnalysis which can currently be turned
on by Clang's -fsave-optimization-record and opt's -pass-remarks-missed.
Removed from LoopVectorizationLegality::canVectorize() the redundant checking

The DWARF specification knows 3 kinds of non-empty simple location
descriptions:
1. Register location descriptions
- describe a variable in a register
- consist of only a DW_OP_reg
2. Memory location descriptions
- describe the address of a variable
3. Implicit location descriptions
- describe the value of a variable
- end with DW_OP_stack_value & friends
The existing DwarfExpression code is pretty much ignorant of these
restrictions. This used to not matter because we only emitted very
short expressions that we happened to get right by accident. This
patch makes DwarfExpression aware of the rules defined by the DWARF
standard and now chooses the right kind of location description for
each expression being emitted.
This would have been an NFC commit (for the existing testsuite) if not
for the way that clang describes captured block variables. Based on
how the previous code in LLVM emitted locations, DW_OP_deref
operations that should have come at the end of the expression are put
at its beginning. Fixing this means changing the semantics of
DIExpression, so this patch bumps the version number of DIExpression
and implements a bitcode upgrade.
There are two major changes in this patch:
I had to fix the semantics of dbg.declare for describing function
arguments. After this patch a dbg.declare always takes the *address*
of a variable as the first argument, even if the argument is not an
alloca.
When lowering a DBG_VALUE, the decision of whether to emit a register
location description or a memory location description depends on the
MachineLocation — register machine locations may get promoted to
memory locations based on their DIExpression. (Future) optimization
passes that want to salvage implicit debug location for variables may
do so by appending a DW_OP_stack_value. For example:
DBG_VALUE, [RBP-8] --> DW_OP_fbreg -8
DBG_VALUE, RAX --> DW_OP_reg0 +0
DBG_VALUE, RAX, DIExpression(DW_OP_deref) --> DW_OP_reg0 +0
All testcases that were modified were regenerated from clang. I also
added source-based testcases for each of these to the debuginfo-tests
repository over the last week to make sure that no synchronized bugs
slip in. The debuginfo-tests compile from source and run the debugger.

LLVM makes several assumptions about address space 0. However,
alloca is presently constrained to always return this address space.
There's no real way to avoid using alloca, so without this
there is no way to opt out of these assumptions.
The problematic assumptions include:
- That the pointer size used for the stack is the same size as
the code size pointer, which is also the maximum sized pointer.
- That 0 is an invalid, non-dereferencable pointer value.
These are problems for AMDGPU because alloca is used to
implement the private address space, which uses a 32-bit
index as the pointer value. Other pointers are 64-bit
and behave more like LLVM's notion of generic address
space. By changing the address space used for allocas,
we can change our generic pointer type to be LLVM's generic
pointer type which does have similar properties.

Summary:
The purpose of coro.end intrinsic is to allow frontends to mark the cleanup and
other code that is only relevant during the initial invocation of the coroutine
and should not be present in resume and destroy parts.
In landing pads coro.end is replaced with an appropriate instruction to unwind to
caller. The handling of coro.end differs depending on whether the target is
using landingpad or WinEH exception model.
For landingpad based exception model, it is expected that frontend uses the
`coro.end`_ intrinsic as follows:
```
ehcleanup:
%InResumePart = call i1 @llvm.coro.end(i8* null, i1 true)
br i1 %InResumePart, label %eh.resume, label %cleanup.cont
cleanup.cont:
; rest of the cleanup
eh.resume:
%exn = load i8*, i8** %exn.slot, align 8
%sel = load i32, i32* %ehselector.slot, align 4
%lpad.val = insertvalue { i8*, i32 } undef, i8* %exn, 0
%lpad.val29 = insertvalue { i8*, i32 } %lpad.val, i32 %sel, 1
resume { i8*, i32 } %lpad.val29
```
The `CoroSpit` pass replaces `coro.end` with ``True`` in the resume functions,
thus leading to immediate unwind to the caller, whereas in start function it
is replaced with ``False``, thus allowing to proceed to the rest of the cleanup
code that is only needed during initial invocation of the coroutine.
For Windows Exception handling model, a frontend should attach a funclet bundle
referring to an enclosing cleanuppad as follows:
```
ehcleanup:
%tok = cleanuppad within none []
%unused = call i1 @llvm.coro.end(i8* null, i1 true) [ "funclet"(token %tok) ]
cleanupret from %tok unwind label %RestOfTheCleanup
```
The `CoroSplit` pass, if the funclet bundle is present, will insert
``cleanupret from %tok unwind to caller`` before
the `coro.end`_ intrinsic and will remove the rest of the block.

fallible functions.
Some fallible functions (those returning Error or Expected<T>) may only fail
for a subset of their inputs. For example, a "safe" square root function will
succeed for all finite positive inputs:
Expected<double> safeSqrt(double d) {
if (d < 0 && !isnan(d) && !isinf(d))
return make_error<...>("Cannot sqrt -ve values, nans or infs");
return sqrt(d);
}
At a safe callsite for such a function, checking the error return value is
redundant:
if (auto ValOrErr = safeSqrt(42.0)) {
// use *ValOrErr.
} else
llvm_unreachable("safeSqrt should always succeed for +ve values");
The cantFail function wraps this check and extracts the contained value,
simplifying control flow:
double Result = cantFail(safeSqrt(42.0));
This function should be used with care: it is a programmatic error to wrap a
call with cantFail if it can in fact fail. For debug builds this will
result in llvm_unreachable being called. For release builds the behavior is
undefined.
Use of this function is likely to be rare in library code, but more common
for tool and unit-test code where inputs and mock functions may be known to be
safe.

@ABS8 can be applied to symbols which appear as immediate operands to
instructions that have a 8-bit immediate form for that operand. It causes
the assembler to use the 8-bit form and an 8-bit relocation (e.g. R_386_8

Summary:
Some frontends emit a speculate-and-select idiom for sqrt, wherein they compute
sqrt(x), check if x is negative, and select NaN if it is:
%cmp = fcmp olt double %a, -0.000000e+00
%sqrt = call double @llvm.sqrt.f64(double %a)
%ret = select i1 %cmp, double 0x7FF8000000000000, double %sqrt
This is technically UB as the LangRef is written today if %a is ever less than
-0. But emitting code that's compliant with the current definition of sqrt
would require a branch, which would then prevent us from matching this idiom in
SelectionDAG (which we do today -- ISD::FSQRT has defined behavior on negative
inputs), because SelectionDAG looks at one BB at a time.
Nothing in LLVM takes advantage of this undefined behavior, as far as we can
tell, and the fact that llvm.sqrt has UB dates from its initial addition to the
LangRef.

optimizations that make assumptions about the rounding mode and floating point
exception behavior. These intrinsics will later be extended to specify
flush-to-zero behavior. More work is also required to model instruction

(when required by pragmas and/or command line options that are not currently

Since r279760, we've been marking as legal operations on narrow integer
types that have wider legal equivalents (for instance, G_ADD s8).
Compared to legalizing these operations, this reduced the amount of
extends/truncates required, but was always a weird legalization decision
made at selection time.
So far, we haven't been able to formalize it in a way that permits the
selector generated from SelectionDAG patterns to be sufficient.
Using a wide instruction (say, s64), when a narrower instruction exists
(s32) would introduce register class incompatibilities (when one narrow
generic instruction is selected to the wider variant, but another is
selected to the narrower variant).
It's also impractical to limit which narrow operations are matched for
which instruction, as restricting "narrow selection" to ranges of types
clashes with potentially incompatible instruction predicates.
Concerns were also raised regarding MIPS64's sign-extended register
assumptions, as well as wrapping behavior.
See discussions in https://reviews.llvm.org/D26878.
Instead, legalize the operations.
Should we ever revert to selecting these narrow operations, we should
try to represent this more accurately: for instance, by separating
a "concrete" type on operations, and an "underlying" type on vregs, we
could move the "this narrow-looking op is really legal" decision to the
legalizer, and let the selector use the "underlying" vreg type only,
which would be guaranteed to map to a register class.
In any case, we eventually should mitigate:
- the performance impact by selecting no-op extract/truncates to COPYs
(which we currently do), and the COPYs to register reuses (which we
don't do yet).
- the compile-time impact by optimizing away extract/truncate sequences
in the legalizer.

you wanted to flush denormals to zero:
* An LLVM command-line option
* Parameters to the NVVMReflect constructor
* Metadata on the module itself.
This change removes the first two, leaving only the third.
The motivation for this change, aside from simplifying things, is that
we want LLVM to be aware of whether it's operating in FTZ mode, so other
passes can use this information. Ideally we'd have a target-generic
piece of metadata on the module. This change moves us in that

Summary:
This replaces the format member search, which was quite complicated, with a more
direct approach to detecting whether a class should be formatted using the
format-member method. Instead we use a special type llvm::format_adapter, which
every adapter must inherit from. Then the search can be simply implemented with
the is_base_of type trait.
Aside from the simplification, I like this way more because it makes it more
explicit that you are supposed to use this type only for adapter-like
formattings, and the other approach (format_provider overloads) should be used
as a default (a mistake I made when first trying to use this library).
The only slight change in behaviour here is that now choose the format-adapter
branch even if the format member invocation will fail to compile (e.g. because it is a
non-const member function and we are passing a const adapter), whereas
previously we would have gone on to search for format_providers for the type.
However, I think that is actually a good thing, as it probably means the
programmer did something wrong.

There was an efficiency problem with how we processed @llvm.assume in
ValueTracking (and other places). The AssumptionCache tracked all of the
assumptions in a given function. In order to find assumptions relevant to
computing known bits, etc. we searched every assumption in the function. For
ValueTracking, that means that we did O(#assumes * #values) work in InstCombine
and other passes (with a constant factor that can be quite large because we'd
repeat this search at every level of recursion of the analysis).
Several of us discussed this situation at the last developers' meeting, and
this implements the discussed solution: Make the values that an assume might
affect operands of the assume itself. To avoid exposing this detail to
frontends and passes that need not worry about it, I've used the new
operand-bundle feature to add these extra call "operands" in a way that does
not affect the intrinsic's signature. I think this solution is relatively
clean. InstCombine adds these extra operands based on what ValueTracking, LVI,
etc. will need and then those passes need only search the users of the values
under consideration. This should fix the computational-complexity problem.
At this point, no passes depend on the AssumptionCache, and so I'll remove
that as a follow-up change.

the stackmap format, so external tools parsing these maps will need to
be updated.
**Problem Details:**
Records only store their offset from the beginning of the function they
belong to. While these records and the functions are output in program
order, it is not possible to determine where the end of one function's
records are without the callsite count when processing the records to
compute return addresses.

I've found this out the hard way; LLVM will not normally catch this
error (unless -verify-machineinstrs is passed), and under certain

With the runtimes build we're trying to use LLVMConfig.cmake as a way of providing LLVM_* variables that are needed to behave as if the project is building in tree. To make this work we need to rename two variables by dropping the "S" from the end. This makes the variables match the in-tree names.
This renames:
LLVM_INCLUDE_DIRS -> LLVM_INCLUDE_DIR
LLVM_LIBRARY_DIRS -> LLVM_LIBRARY_DIR
The versions ending in S are not used in-tree anywhere. This also cleans up LLVM_LIBRARY_DIR being set to the same value with and without the "S".

Summary:
[Coroutines] Part 9: Add cleanup subfunction.
This patch completes coroutine heap allocation elision. Now, the heap elision example from docs\Coroutines.rst compiles and produces expected result (see test/Transform/Coroutines/ex3.ll)
Intrinsic Changes:
* coro.free gets a token parameter tying it to coro.id to allow reliably discovering all coro.frees associated with a particular coroutine.
* coro.id gets an extra parameter that points back to a coroutine function. This allows to check whether a coro.id describes the enclosing function or it belongs to a different function that was later inlined.
CoroSplit now creates three subfunctions:
# f$resume - resume logic
# f$destroy - cleanup logic, followed by a deallocation code
# f$cleanup - just the cleanup code
CoroElide pass during devirtualization replaces coro.destroy with either f$destroy or f$cleanup depending whether heap elision is performed or not.
Other fixes, improvements:
* Fixed buglet in Shape::buildFrame that was not creating coro.save properly if coroutine has more than one suspend point.
* Switched to using variable width suspend index field (no longer limited to 32 bit index field can be as little as i1 or as large as i<whatever-size_t-is>)

1. Make coroutine representation more robust against optimization that may duplicate instruction by introducing coro.id intrinsics that returns a token that will get fed into coro.alloc and coro.begin. Due to coro.id returning a token, it won't get duplicated and can be used as reliable indicator of coroutine identify when a particular coroutine call gets inlined.
2. Move last three arguments of coro.begin into coro.id as they will be shared if coro.begin will get duplicated.
3. doc + test + code updated to support the new intrinsic.

Summary:
A particular coroutine usage pattern, where a coroutine is created, manipulated and
destroyed by the same calling function, is common for coroutines implementing
RAII idiom and is suitable for allocation elision optimization which avoid
dynamic allocation by storing the coroutine frame as a static `alloca` in its
caller.
coro.free and coro.alloc intrinsics are used to indicate which code needs to be suppressed
when dynamic allocation elision happens:
```
entry:
%elide = call i8* @llvm.coro.alloc()
%need.dyn.alloc = icmp ne i8* %elide, null
br i1 %need.dyn.alloc, label %coro.begin, label %dyn.alloc
dyn.alloc:
%alloc = call i8* @CustomAlloc(i32 4)
br label %coro.begin
coro.begin:
%phi = phi i8* [ %elide, %entry ], [ %alloc, %dyn.alloc ]
%hdl = call i8* @llvm.coro.begin(i8* %phi, i32 0, i8* null,
i8* bitcast ([2 x void (%f.frame*)*]* @f.resumers to i8*))
```
and
```
%mem = call i8* @llvm.coro.free(i8* %hdl)
%need.dyn.free = icmp ne i8* %mem, null
br i1 %need.dyn.free, label %dyn.free, label %if.end
dyn.free:
call void @CustomFree(i8* %mem)
br label %if.end
if.end:
...
```
If heap allocation elision is performed, we replace coro.alloc with a static alloca on the caller frame and coro.free with null constant.
Also, we need to make sure that if there are any tail calls referencing the coroutine frame, we need to remote tail call attribute, since now coroutine frame lives on the stack.

Summary:
Based on two patches by Michael Mueller.
This is a target attribute that causes a function marked with it to be
emitted as "hotpatchable". This particular mechanism was originally
devised by Microsoft for patching their binaries (which they are
constantly updating to stay ahead of crackers, script kiddies, and other
ne'er-do-wells on the Internet), but is now commonly abused by Windows
programs to hook API functions.
This mechanism is target-specific. For x86, a two-byte no-op instruction
is emitted at the function's entry point; the entry point must be
immediately preceded by 64 (32-bit) or 128 (64-bit) bytes of padding.
This padding is where the patch code is written. The two byte no-op is
then overwritten with a short jump into this code. The no-op is usually
a `movl %edi, %edi` instruction; this is used as a magic value
indicating that this is a hotpatchable function.

This patch replaces RuntimeDyld::SymbolInfo with JITSymbol: A symbol class
that is capable of lazy materialization (i.e. the symbol definition needn't be
emitted until the address is requested). This can be used to support common
and weak symbols in the JIT (though this is not implemented in this patch).
For consistency, RuntimeDyld::SymbolResolver is renamed to JITSymbolResolver.
For space efficiency a new class, JITEvaluatedSymbol, is introduced that
behaves like the old RuntimeDyld::SymbolInfo - i.e. it is just a pair of an
address and symbol flags. Instances of JITEvaluatedSymbol can be used in
symbol-tables to avoid paying the space cost of the materializer.

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

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).

This change is motivated by an upcoming change to the metadata representation
used for CFI. The indirect function call checker needs type information for
external function declarations in order to correctly generate jump table
entries for such declarations. We currently associate such type information
with declarations using a global metadata node, but I plan [1] to move all
such metadata to global object attachments.
In bitcode, metadata attachments for function declarations appear in the
global metadata block. This seems reasonable to me because I expect metadata
attachments on declarations to be uncommon. In the long term I'd also expect
this to be the case for CFI, because we'd want to use some specialized bitcode
format for this metadata that could be read as part of the ThinLTO thin-link
phase, which would mean that it would not appear in the global metadata block.
To solve the lazy loaded metadata issue I was seeing with D20147, I use the
same bitcode representation for metadata attachments for global variables as I
do for function declarations. Since there's a use case for metadata attachments
in the global metadata block, we might as well use that representation for
global variables as well, at least until we have a mechanism for lazy loading
global variables.
In the assembly format, the metadata attachments appear after the "declare"
keyword in order to avoid a parsing ambiguity.

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.

This enables use of the 'S' constraint for inline ASM operands on
SystemZ, which allows for a memory reference with a signed 20-bit
immediate displacement. This patch includes corresponding documentation
and test case updates.
I've changed the 'T' constraint to match the new behavior for 'S', as
'T' also uses a long displacement (though index constraints are still
not implemented). I also changed 'm' to match the behavior for 'S' as
this will allow for a wider range of displacements for 'm', though
correct me if that's not the right decision.

Summary:
This is an initial implementation of a Hardened Allocator based on Sanitizer Common's CombinedAllocator.
It aims at mitigating heap based vulnerabilities by adding several features to the base allocator, while staying relatively fast.
The following were implemented:
- additional consistency checks on the allocation function parameters and on the heap chunks;
- use of checksum protected chunk header, to detect corruption;
- randomness to the allocator base;
- delayed freelist (quarantine), to mitigate use after free and overall determinism.
Additional mitigations are in the works.

There seems to be some problem with quoting the file paths. I don't
understand the test structure here or the code well enough to try to

In practice only a few well known appending linkage variables work.
Currently if codegen sees an unknown appending linkage variable it will
just print it as a regular global. That is wrong as the symbol in the

appending linkage.
This just errors early instead of producing a broken .o.

This new verifier rule lets us unambigously pick a calling convention
when creating a new declaration for
`@llvm.experimental.deoptimize.<ty>`. It is also congruent with our
lowering strategy -- since all calls to `@llvm.experimental.deoptimize`
are lowered to calls to `__llvm_deoptimize`, it is reasonable to enforce
a unique calling convention.
Some of the tests that were breaking this verifier rule have had to be
split up into different .ll files.
The inliner was violating this rule as well, and has been fixed to avoid
producing invalid IR.
llvm-svn: 269261
An oddity of the .ll syntax is that the "@var = " in
@var = global i32 42
is optional. Writing just
global i32 42
is equivalent to
@0 = global i32 42
This means that there is a pretty big First set at the top level. The
current implementation maintains it manually. I was trying to refactor
it, but then started wondering why keep it a all. I personally find the
above syntax confusing. It looks like something is missing.
This patch removes the feature and simplifies the parser.

Summary:
D19403 adds a new pragma for loop distribution. This change adds
support for the corresponding metadata that the pragma is translated to
by the FE.
As part of this I had to rethink the flag -enable-loop-distribute. My
goal was to be backward compatible with the existing behavior:
A1. pass is off by default from the optimization pipeline
unless -enable-loop-distribute is specified
A2. pass is on when invoked directly from opt (e.g. for unit-testing)
The new pragma/metadata overrides these defaults so the new behavior is:
B1. A1 + enable distribution for individual loop with the pragma/metadata
B2. A2 + disable distribution for individual loop with the pragma/metadata
The default value whether the pass is on or off comes from the initiator
of the pass. From the PassManagerBuilder the default is off, from opt
it's on.
I moved -enable-loop-distribute under the pass. If the flag is
specified it overrides the default from above.
Then the pragma/metadata can further modifies this per loop.
As a side-effect, we can now also use -enable-loop-distribute=0 from opt
to emulate the default from the optimization pipeline. So to be precise
this is the new behavior:
C1. pass is off by default from the optimization pipeline
unless -enable-loop-distribute or the pragma/metadata enables it
C2. pass is on when invoked directly from opt
unless -enable-loop-distribute=0 or the pragma/metadata disables it

I really thought we were doing this already, but we were not. Given this input:
void Test(int *res, int *c, int *d, int *p) {
for (int i = 0; i < 16; i++)
res[i] = (p[i] == 0) ? res[i] : res[i] + d[i];
}
we did not vectorize the loop. Even with "assume_safety" the check that we
don't if-convert conditionally-executed loads (to protect against
data-dependent deferenceability) was not elided.
One subtlety: As implemented, it will still prefer to use a masked-load
instrinsic (given target support) over the speculated load. The choice here
seems architecture specific; the best option depends on how expensive the
masked load is compared to a regular load. Ideally, using the masked load still
reduces unnecessary memory traffic, and so should be preferred. If we'd rather
do it the other way, flipping the order of the checks is easy.
The LangRef is updated to make explicit that llvm.mem.parallel_loop_access also
implies that if conversion is okay.

Eliminate DITypeIdentifierMap and make DITypeRef a thin wrapper around
DIType*. It is no longer legal to refer to a DICompositeType by its

'identifier:' automatically.
Aside from the bitcode upgrade, this is mainly removing logic to resolve
an MDString-based reference to an actualy DIType. The commits leading
up to this have made the implicit type map in DICompileUnit's
'retainedTypes:' field superfluous.
This does not remove DITypeRef, DIScopeRef, DINodeRef, and
DITypeRefArray, or stop using them in DI-related metadata. Although as
of this commit they aren't serving a useful purpose, there are patchces

This intrinsic takes two arguments, ``%ptr`` and ``%offset``. It loads
a 32-bit value from the address ``%ptr + %offset``, adds ``%ptr`` to that
value and returns it. The constant folder specifically recognizes the form of
this intrinsic and the constant initializers it may load from; if a loaded
constant initializer is known to have the form ``i32 trunc(x - %ptr)``,
the intrinsic call is folded to ``x``.
LLVM provides that the calculation of such a constant initializer will
not overflow at link time under the medium code model if ``x`` is an
``unnamed_addr`` function. However, it does not provide this guarantee for
a constant initializer folded into a function body. This intrinsic can be
used to avoid the possibility of overflows when loading from such a constant.

With this change, ideally IR pass can always generate llvm.stackguard
call to get the stack guard; but for now there are still IR form stack
guard customizations around (see getIRStackGuard()). Future SSP
customization should go through LOAD_STACK_GUARD.
There is a behavior change: stack guard values are not CSEed anymore,
since we should never reuse the value in case that it has been spilled (and
corrupted). See ssp-guard-spill.ll. This also cause the change of stack
size and codegen in X86 and AArch64 test cases.
Ideally we'd like to know if the guard created in llvm.stackprotector() gets
spilled or not. If the value is spilled, discard the value and reload
stack guard; otherwise reuse the value. This can be done by teaching
register allocator to know how to rematerialize LOAD_STACK_GUARD and
force a rematerialization (which seems hard), or check for spilling in
expandPostRAPseudo. It only makes sense when the stack guard is a global
variable, which requires more instructions to load. Anyway, this seems to go out
of the scope of the current patch.

Rather than relying on the structural equivalence of DICompositeType to
merge type definitions, use an explicit map on the LLVMContext that
LLParser and BitcodeReader consult when constructing new nodes.
Each non-forward-declaration DICompositeType with a non-empty
'identifier:' field is stored/loaded from the type map, and the first
definiton will "win".
This map is opt-in: clients that expect ODR types from different modules
to be merged must call LLVMContext::ensureDITypeMap.
- Clients that just happen to load more than one Module in the same
LLVMContext won't magically merge types.
- Clients (like LTO) that want to continue to merge types based on ODR
identifiers should opt-in immediately.
I have updated LTOCodeGenerator.cpp, the two "linking" spots in
gold-plugin.cpp, and llvm-link (unless -disable-debug-info-type-map) to
set this.
With this in place, it will be straightforward to remove the DITypeRef
concept (i.e., referencing types by their 'identifier:' string rather
than pointing at them directly).

Merge members that are describing the same member of the same ODR type,
even if other bits differ. If the file or line differ, we don't care;

For DISubprogram declarations, this looks at the LinkageName and Scope.
For DW_TAG_member instances of DIDerivedType, this looks at the Name and
Scope. In both cases, we know that the Scope follows ODR rules if it

AtomicExpandPass can now lower atomic load, atomic store, atomicrmw, and

This is the first step towards moving all atomic lowering from clang

Previously LLVM would pass everything through to the ISelLowering

llvm IR atomic instructions when this would happen, and emits __atomic_*
library functions itself, in the frontend.
This change makes LLVM able to emit __atomic_* libcalls, and thus will
eventually allow clang to depend on LLVM to do the right thing.
It is advantageous to do the new lowering to atomic libcalls in
AtomicExpandPass, before ISel time, because it's important that all
atomic operations for a given size either lower to __atomic_*
libcalls (which may use locks), or native instructions which won't. No

The code currently plays fast and loose with the AtomicOrdering
enum. Using an enum class is one step towards tightening things. I later
also want to tighten related enums, such as clang's
AtomicOrderingKind (which should be shared with LLVM as a 'C++ ABI'
enum).
This change touches a few lines of code which can be improved later, I'd
like to keep it as NFC for now as it's already quite complex. I have
related changes for clang.
As a follow-up I'll add:
bool operator<(AtomicOrdering, AtomicOrdering) = delete;
bool operator>(AtomicOrdering, AtomicOrdering) = delete;
bool operator<=(AtomicOrdering, AtomicOrdering) = delete;
bool operator>=(AtomicOrdering, AtomicOrdering) = delete;
