Volatility is not an aliasing property. We used to model volatile as if it had extremely conservative aliasing implications, but that hasn't been true for several years now. So, it doesn't make sense to be in AliasSet.
It also turns out the code is entirely a noop. Outside of the AST code to update it, there was only one user: load store promotion in LICM. L/S promotion doesn't need the check since it walks all the users of the address anyway. It already checks each load or store via !isUnordered which causes us to bail for volatile accesses. (Look at the lines immediately following the two remove asserts.)
There is the possibility of some small compile time impact here, but the only case which will get noticeably slower is a loop with a large number of loads and stores to the same address where only the last one we inspect is volatile. This is sufficiently rare it's not worth optimizing for..

This patch teaches LICM to hoist guards from the loop if they are guaranteed to execute and

Summary:
Currently, in LICM, we use the alias set tracker to identify if the
instruction (we're interested in hoisting) aliases with instruction that
modifies that memory location.
This patch adds an LICM alias analysis diagnostic tool that checks the
mod ref info of the instruction we are interested in hoisting/sinking,
with every instruction in the loop. Because of O(N^2) complexity this
is now only a diagnostic tool to show the limitation we have with the
alias set tracker and is OFF by default.
Test cases show the difference with the diagnostic analysis tool, where
we're able to hoist out loads and readonly + argmemonly calls from the
loop, where the alias set tracker analysis is not able to hoist these
instructions out.

Main value is just simplifying code. I'll further simply the argument handling case in a bit, but that involved a slightly orthogonal change so I went with the mildy ugly intermediate for this patch.
Note that the isSized check in the old LICM code was not carried across. It turns out that check was dead. a) no test exercised it, and b) langref and verifier had been updated to disallow unsized types used in loads.

If we have an assume which is known to execute and whose operand is invariant, we can lift that into the pre-header. So long as we don't change which paths the assume executes on, this is a legal transformation. It's likely to be a useful canonicalization as other transforms only look for dominating assumes.

The motivating case is an otherwise dead loop with a fence in it. At the moment, this goes all the way through the optimizer and we end up emitting an entirely pointless loop on x86. This case may seem a bit contrived, but we've seen it in real code as the result of otherwise reasonable lowering strategies combined w/thread local memory optimizations (such as escape analysis).
To handle this simple case, we can teach LICM to hoist must execute fences when there is no other memory operation within the loop.

This one requires a bit of explaination. It's not every day you simply delete code to implement an optimization. :)
The transform in question is sinking an instruction from a loop to the uses in loop exiting blocks. We know (from LCSSA) that all of the uses outside the loop must be phi nodes, and after predecessor splitting, we know all phi users must have a single operand. Since the use must be strictly dominated by the def, we know from the definition of dominance/ssa that the exit block must execute along a (non-strict) subset of paths which reach the def. As a result, duplicating a potentially faulting instruction can not *introduce* a fault that didn't previously exist in the program.
The full story is that this patch builds on "rL338671: [LICM] Factor out fault legality from canHoistOrSinkInst [NFC]" which pulled this logic out of a common helper routine. As best I can tell, this check was originally added to the helper function for hoisting legality, later an incorrect fastpath for loads/calls was added, and then the bug was fixed by duplicating the fault safety check in the hoist path. This left the redundant check in the common code to pessimize sinking for no reason. I split it out in an NFC, and am not removing the unneccessary check. I wanted there to be something easy to revert in case I missed something.

This method has three callers, each of which wanted distinct handling:
1) Sinking into a loop is moving an instruction known to execute before a loop into the loop. We don't need to worry about introducing a fault at all in this case.
2) Hoisting from a loop into a preheader already duplicated the check in the caller.
3) Sinking from the loop into an exit block was the only true user of the code within the routine. For the moment, this has just been lifted into the caller, but up next is examining the logic more carefully. Whitelisting of loads and calls - while consistent with the previous code - is rather suspicious. Either way, a behavior change is worthy of it's own patch.

Computing this property within the existing walk ensures that the cost is linear with the size of the block. If we did this from within isGuaranteedToExecute, it would be quadratic without some very fancy caching.
This allows us to reliably catch a hoistable instruction within a header which may throw at some point *after* our hoistable instruction. It doesn't do anything for non-header cases, but given how common single block loops are, this seems very worthwhile.

Extend our store promotion code to deal with unordered atomic accesses. Ordered atomics continue to be unhandled.
Most of the change is straight-forward, the only complicated bit is in the reasoning around mixing of atomic and non-atomic memory access. Rather than trying to reason about the complex semantics in these cases, I simply disallowed promotion when both atomic and non-atomic accesses are present. This is conservatively correct.
It seems really tempting to just promote all access to atomics, but the original accesses might have been conditional. Since we can't lower an arbitrary atomic type, it might not be safe to promote all access to atomic. Consider a loop like the following:
while(b) {
load i128 ...
if (can lower i128 atomic)
store atomic i128 ...
else
store i128
}
It could be there's no race on the location and thus the code is perfectly well defined even if we can't lower a i128 atomically.
It's not clear we need to be this conservative - arguably the program above is brocken since it can't be lowered unless the branch is folded - but I didn't want to have to fix any fallout which might result.

skip sub-subloops.
The logic to skip subloops dated from when this code was shared with the
cached case. Once it was factored out to only run in the case of
recomputed subloops it became a dangerous bug. If a subsubloop contained
an interfering instruction it would be silently skipped from the alias
sets for LICM.
With the old pass manager this was extremely hard to trigger as it would
require failing to visit these subloops with the LICM pass but then
visiting the outer loop somehow. I've not yet contrived any test case
that actually manages to trigger this.
But with the new pass manager we don't do the cross-loop caching hack
that the old PM does and so we recompute alias set information from
first principles. While this seems much cleaner and simpler it exposed
this bug and would subtly miscompile code due to failing to correctly
model the aliasing constraints of deeply nested loops.

the latter to the Transforms library.
While the loop PM uses an analysis to form the IR units, the current
plan is to have the PM itself establish and enforce both loop simplified
form and LCSSA. This would be a layering violation in the analysis
library.
Fundamentally, the idea behind the loop PM is to *transform* loops in
addition to running passes over them, so it really seemed like the most
natural place to sink this was into the transforms library.
We can't just move *everything* because we also have loop analyses that
rely on a subset of the invariants. So this patch splits the the loop
infrastructure into the analysis management that has to be part of the
analysis library, and the transform-aware pass manager.
This also required splitting the loop analyses' printer passes out to
the transforms library, which makes sense to me as running these will
transform the code into LCSSA in theory.
I haven't split the unittest though because testing one component
without the other seems nearly intractable.

arguments much like the CGSCC pass manager.
This is a major redesign following the pattern establish for the CGSCC layer to
support updates to the set of loops during the traversal of the loop nest and
to support invalidation of analyses.
An additional significant burden in the loop PM is that so many passes require
access to a large number of function analyses. Manually ensuring these are
cached, available, and preserved has been a long-standing burden in LLVM even
with the help of the automatic scheduling in the old pass manager. And it made
the new pass manager extremely unweildy. With this design, we can package the
common analyses up while in a function pass and make them immediately available
to all the loop passes. While in some cases this is unnecessary, I think the
simplicity afforded is worth it.
This does not (yet) address loop simplified form or LCSSA form, but those are
the next things on my radar and I have a clear plan for them.
While the patch is very large, most of it is either mechanically updating loop
passes to the new API or the new testing for the loop PM. The code for it is
reasonably compact.
I have not yet updated all of the loop passes to correctly leverage the update
mechanisms demonstrated in the unittests. I'll do that in follow-up patches
along with improved FileCheck tests for those passes that ensure things work in
more realistic scenarios. In many cases, there isn't much we can do with these
until the loop simplified form and LCSSA form are in place.

There's a potential performance impact here from assuming that arbitrary

stores to a pointer because most things alias analysis can reason about
are dereferenceable anyway. The other impacts, like less aggressive
hoisting of sdiv by a variable and less aggressive hoisting around
volatile memory operations, are unlikely to matter for real code.
This also impacts SCEV, which uses the same helper. It's a minor
improvement there because we can tell that, for example, memcpy always
returns normally. Strictly speaking, it's also introducing
a bug, but it's not any worse than everywhere else we assume readonly

This patch implements a optimization bisect feature, which will allow optimizations to be selectively disabled at compile time in order to track down test failures that are caused by incorrect optimizations.
The bisection is enabled using a new command line option (-opt-bisect-limit). Individual passes that may be skipped call the OptBisect object (via an LLVMContext) to see if they should be skipped based on the bisect limit. A finer level of control (disabling individual transformations) can be managed through an addition OptBisect method, but this is not yet used.
The skip checking in this implementation is based on (and replaces) the skipOptnoneFunction check. Where that check was being called, a new call has been inserted in its place which checks the bisect limit and the optnone attribute. A new function call has been added for module and SCC passes that behaves in a similar way.

This patch teaches LICM's implementation of store promotion to exploit the fact that the memory location being accessed might be provable thread local. The fact it's thread local weakens the requirements for where we can insert stores since no other thread can observe the write. This allows us perform store promotion even in cases where the store is not guaranteed to execute in the loop.
Two key assumption worth drawing out is that this assumes a) no-capture is strong enough to imply no-escape, and b) standard allocation functions like malloc, calloc, and operator new return values which can be assumed not to have previously escaped.
In future work, it would be nice to generalize this so that it works without directly seeing the allocation site. I believe that the nocapture return attribute should be suitable for this purpose, but haven't investigated carefully. It's also likely that we could support unescaped allocas with similar reasoning, but since SROA and Mem2Reg should destroy those, they're less interesting than they first might seem.
