Don't IPO over functions that can be de-refined Summary: Fixes PR26774. If you're aware of the issue, feel free to skip the "Motivation" section and jump directly to "This patch". Motivation: I define "refinement" as discarding behaviors from a program that the optimizer has license to discard. So transforming: ``` void f(unsigned x) { unsigned t = 5 / x; (void)t; } ``` to ``` void f(unsigned x) { } ``` is refinement, since the behavior went from "if x == 0 then undefined else nothing" to "nothing" (the optimizer has license to discard undefined behavior). Refinement is a fundamental aspect of many mid-level optimizations done by LLVM. For instance, transforming `x == (x + 1)` to `false` also involves refinement since the expression's value went from "if x is `undef` then { `true` or `false` } else { `false` }" to "`false`" (by definition, the optimizer has license to fold `undef` to any non-`undef` value). Unfortunately, refinement implies that the optimizer cannot assume that the implementation of a function it can see has all of the behavior an unoptimized or a differently optimized version of the same function can have. This is a problem for functions with comdat linkage, where a function can be replaced by an unoptimized or a differently optimized version of the same source level function. For instance, FunctionAttrs cannot assume a comdat function is actually `readnone` even if it does not have any loads or stores in it; since there may have been loads and stores in the "original function" that were refined out in the currently visible variant, and at the link step the linker may in fact choose an implementation with a load or a store. As an example, consider a function that does two atomic loads from the same memory location, and writes to memory only if the two values are not equal. The optimizer is allowed to refine this function by first CSE'ing the two loads, and the folding the comparision to always report that the two values are equal. Such a refined variant will look like it is `readonly`. However, the unoptimized version of the function can still write to memory (since the two loads //can// result in different values), and selecting the unoptimized version at link time will retroactively invalidate transforms we may have done under the assumption that the function does not write to memory. Note: this is not just a problem with atomics or with linking differently optimized object files. See PR26774 for more realistic examples that involved neither. This patch: This change introduces a new set of linkage types, predicated as `GlobalValue::mayBeDerefined` that returns true if the linkage type allows a function to be replaced by a differently optimized variant at link time. It then changes a set of IPO passes to bail out if they see such a function.
