Guillaume Chatelet 805c157e8a [Alignment][NFC] Deprecate Align::None()
Summary:
This is a follow up on https://reviews.llvm.org/D71473#inline-647262.
There's a caveat here that `Align(1)` relies on the compiler understanding of `Log2_64` implementation to produce good code. One could use `Align()` as a replacement but I believe it is less clear that the alignment is one in that case.

Diana Picus 7f1dcc8952 [InstCombine] Skip scalable vectors in combineLoadToOperationType
Don't try to canonicalize loads to scalable vector types to loads
of integers.

This removes one assertion when trying to use a TypeSize as a parameter
to DataLayout::isLegalInteger. It does not handle the second part of the
function (which looks at bitcasts).

This patch also contains a NFC fix for Load Analysis, where a variable
initialization that would cause the same assertion is moved closer to
its use. This allows us to run the new test for InstCombine without
having to teach LocationSize to play nicely with scalable vectors.

Philip Reames b90f94f42e [LV] Support invariant addresses in speculation logic
Implement a TODO from rL371452, and handle loop invariant addresses in predicated blocks. If we can prove that the load is safe to speculate into the header, then we can avoid using a masked.load in favour of a normal load.

This is mostly about vectorization robustness. In the common case, it's generally expected that LICM/LoadStorePromotion would have eliminated such loads entirely.

Philip Reames 2694522f13 [Loads/SROA] Remove blatantly incorrect code and fix a bug revealed in the process
The code we had isSafeToLoadUnconditionally was blatantly wrong. This function takes a "Size" argument which is supposed to describe the span loaded from. Instead, the code use the size of the pointer passed (which may be unrelated!) and only checks that span. For any Size > LoadSize, this can and does lead to miscompiles.

Worse, the generic code just a few lines above correctly handles the cases which *are* valid. So, let's delete said code.

Removing this code revealed two issues:
1) As noted by jdoerfert the removed code incorrectly handled external globals.  The test update in SROA is to stop testing incorrect behavior.
2) SROA was confusing bytes and bits, but this wasn't obvious as the Size parameter was being essentially ignored anyway.  Fixed.

This makes the functions in Loads.h require a type to be specified
independently of the pointer Value so that when pointers have no structure
other than address-space, it can still do its job.

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

Chandler Carruth 363ac68374 [CallSite removal] Migrate all Alias Analysis APIs to use the newly
minted `CallBase` class instead of the `CallSite` wrapper.

This moves the largest interwoven collection of APIs that traffic in
`CallSite`s. While a handful of these could have been migrated with
a minorly more shallow migration by converting from a `CallSite` to
a `CallBase`, it hardly seemed worth it. Most of the APIs needed to
migrate together because of the complex interplay of AA APIs and the
fact that converting from a `CallBase` to a `CallSite` isn't free in its
current implementation.

Out of tree users of these APIs can fairly reliably migrate with some
combination of `.getInstruction()` on the `CallSite` instance and
casting the resulting pointer. The most generic form will look like `CS`
-> `cast_or_null<CallBase>(CS.getInstruction())` but in most cases there
is a more elegant migration. Hopefully, this migrates enough APIs for
users to fully move from `CallSite` to the base class. All of the
in-tree users were easily migrated in that fashion.

Thanks for the review from Saleem!

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.
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2018-January/120416.html

Sanjoy Das 10df497a1f Reduce dependence on pointee types when deducing dereferenceability
Summary:
Change some of the internal interfaces in Loads.cpp to keep track of the
number of bytes we're trying to prove dereferenceable using an explicit
`Size` parameter.

Before this, the `Size` parameter was implicitly inferred from the
pointee type of the pointer whose dereferenceability we were trying to
prove, causing us to be conservative around bitcasts. This was
unfortunate since bitcast instructions are no-ops and should never
break optimizations.  With an explicit `Size` parameter, we're more
precise (as shown in the test cases), and the code is simpler.

We should eventually move towards a `DerefQuery` struct that groups
together a base pointer, an offset, a size and an alignment; but this
patch is a first step.

Sanjoy Das 5ce3272833 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.
