I found that propagateAttributes was ~23% of a thin link's run time
(almost 4x higher than the second hottest function). The main reason is
that it re-examines a global var each time it is referenced. This
becomes unnecessary once it is marked both non read only and non write
only. I added a set to avoid doing redundant work, which dropped the
runtime of that thin link by almost 15%.
I made a smaller efficiency improvement (no measurable impact) to skip
all summaries for a VI if the first copy is dead. I added an assert to
ensure that all copies are dead if any is. The code in
computeDeadSymbols marks all summaries for a VI as live. There is one
corner case where it was skipping marking an alias as live, that I
fixed. However, since the code earlier marked all copies of a preserved
GUID's VI as live, and each 'visit' marks all copies live, the only case
where this could make a difference is summaries that were marked live
when they were built initially, and that is only a few special compiler
generated symbols and inline assembly symbols, so it likely is never
provoked in practice.

Summary:
This patch adds optional field into function summary,
implements asm and bitcode serialization. YAML
serialization is omitted and can be added later if
needed.
This patch includes this information into summary only
if module contains at least one sanitize_memtag function.
In a near future MTE is the user of the analysis.
Later if needed we can provede more direct control
on when information is included into summary.

Summary:
Reenables importing of constants by default, which was disabled in
D73724 due to excessive thin link times. These inefficiencies were

I re-measured thin link times for a number of binaries that had compile
time explosions with importing of constants previously and confirmed
they no longer have any notable increases with it enabled.

Summary:
Add an option to allow the attribute propagation on the index to be
disabled, to allow a workaround for issues (such as that fixed by
D70977).
Also move the setting of the WithAttributePropagation flag on the index
into propagateAttributes(), and remove some old stale code that predated
this flag and cleared the maybe read/write only bits when we need to
disable the propagation (previously only when importing disabled, now
also when the new option disables it).

Summary: A user can force a function to be inlined by specifying the always_inline attribute. Currently, thinlto implementation is not aware of always_inline functions and does not guarantee import of such functions, which in turn can prevent inlining of such functions.

Patch enables import of write-only variables with non-trivial initializers
to fix linker errors. Initializers of imported variables are converted to
'zeroinitializer' to avoid promotion of referenced objects.

Patch allows importing declarations of functions and variables, referenced
by the initializer of some other readonly variable.
Differential revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D69561
It's possible that some function can load and store the same
variable using the same constant expression:
store %Derived* @foo, %Derived** bitcast (%Base** @bar to %Derived**)
%42 = load %Derived*, %Derived** bitcast (%Base** @bar to %Derived**)
The bitcast expression was mistakenly cached while processing loads,
and never examined later when processing store. This caused @bar to
be mistakenly treated as read-only variable. See load-store-caching.ll.

This reverts r365040 (git commit 5cacb91475)
Speculatively reverting, since this appears to have broken check-lld on
Linux. Partial analysis in https://crbug.com/981168.
llvm-svn: 365097
Summary:
We hit undefined references building with ThinLTO when one source file
contained explicit instantiations of a template method (weak_odr) but
there were also implicit instantiations in another file (linkonce_odr),
and the latter was the prevailing copy. In this case the symbol was
marked hidden when the prevailing linkonce_odr copy was promoted to
weak_odr. It led to unsats when the resulting shared library was linked
with other code that contained a reference (expecting to be resolved due
to the explicit instantiation).
Add a CanAutoHide flag to the GV summary to allow the thin link to
identify when all copies are eligible for auto-hiding (because they were
all originally linkonce_odr global unnamed addr), and only do the
auto-hide in that case.
Most of the changes here are due to plumbing the new flag through the
bitcode and llvm assembly, and resulting test changes. I augmented the
existing auto-hide test to check for this situation.

Summary:
The AliasSummary previously contained the AliaseeGUID, which was only
populated when reading the summary from bitcode. This patch changes it
to instead hold the ValueInfo of the aliasee, and always populates it.
This enables more efficient access to the ValueInfo (specifically in the
recent patch r352438 which needed to perform an index hash table lookup
using the aliasee GUID).
As noted in the comments in AliasSummary, we no longer technically need
to keep a pointer to the corresponding aliasee summary, since it could
be obtained by walking the list of summaries on the ValueInfo looking
for the summary in the same module. However, I am concerned that this
would be inefficient when walking through the index during the thin
link for various analyses. That can be reevaluated in the future.
By always populating this new field, we can remove the guard and special
handling for a 0 aliasee GUID when dumping the dot graph of the summary.
An additional improvement in this patch is when reading the summaries
from LLVM assembly we now set the AliaseeSummary field to the aliasee
summary in that same module, which makes it consistent with the behavior
when reading the summary from bitcode.

to reflect the new license.
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
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and

Summary:
The NotEligibleToImport flag on the GlobalValueSummary was set if it

and when it can't be inlined (in which case importing is pointless).
I split out the inlinable piece into a separate flag on the
FunctionSummary (doesn't make sense for aliases or global variables),
because in the future we may want to import for reasons other than
inlining.

ModuleSummaryIndex::exportToDot crashes when linking the Linux kernel
under ThinLTO using LLVMgold.so. This is due to the exportToDot
function trying to get the GUID of an empty ValueInfo. The root cause
related to the fact that we attempt to get the GUID of an aliasee
via its OriginalGUID recorded in the aliasee summary, and that is not
always possible. Specifically, we cannot do this mapping when the value
is internal linkage and there were other internal linkage symbols with
the same name.
There are 2 fixes for the problem included here.
1) In all cases where we can currently print the dot file from the
command line (which is only via save-temps), we have a valid AliaseeGUID
in the AliasSummary. Use that when it is available, so that we can get
the correct aliasee GUID whenever possible.
2) However, if we were to invoke exportToDot from the debugger right
after it is built during the initial analysis step (i.e. the per-module
summary), we won't have the AliaseeGUID field populated. In that case,
we have a fallback fix that will simply print "@"+GUID when we aren't
able to get the GUID from the OriginalGUID. It simply checks if the VI
is valid or not before attempting to get the name. Additionally, since
getAliaseeGUID will assert that the AliaseeGUID is non-zero, guard the
earlier fix#1 by a new function hasAliaseeGUID().

If a regular LTO module has a summary index, then instead of linking
it into the combined regular LTO module right away, add it to the
combined summary index and associate it with a special module that
represents the combined regular LTO module.
Any such modules are linked during LTO::run(), at which time we use
the results of summary-based dead stripping to control whether to
link prevailing symbols.

When profiling a no-op incremental link of Chromium I found that the functions
computeImportForFunction and computeDeadSymbols were consuming roughly 10% of
the profile. The goal of this change is to improve the performance of those
functions by changing the map lookups that they were previously doing into
pointer dereferences.
This is achieved by changing the ValueInfo data structure to be a pointer to
an element of the global value map owned by ModuleSummaryIndex, and changing
reference lists in the GlobalValueSummary to hold ValueInfos instead of GUIDs.
This means that a ValueInfo will take a client directly to the summary list
for a given GUID.
