End iterators are usually sentinels, not actually Instruction* at all.
Stop casting to it just to get an iterator back.
There is likely no observable functionality change here right now
(although this is relying on UB, I doubt it was triggering anything),
but I'll be removing the cast soon.

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.

Summary:
In the context of http://wg21.link/lwg2445 C++ uses the concept of
'stronger' ordering but doesn't define it properly. This should be fixed
in C++17 barring a small question that's still open.
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;
This is separate so that clang and LLVM changes don't need to be in sync.

Stop converting implicitly between iterators and pointers/references in
lib/IR. For convenience, I've added a `getIterator()` accessor to
`ilist_node` so that callers don't need to know how to spell the
iterator class (i.e., they can use `X.getIterator()` instead of
`Function::iterator(X)`).
I'll eventually disallow these implicit conversions entirely, but
there's a lot of code, so it doesn't make sense to do it all in one
patch. One library or so at a time.
Why? To root out cases of `getNextNode()` and `getPrevNode()` being
used in iterator logic. The design of `ilist` makes that invalid when
the current node could be at the back of the list, but it happens to
"work" right now because of a bug where those functions never return
`nullptr` if you're using a half-node sentinel. Before I can fix the
function, I have to remove uses of it that rely on it misbehaving.
(Maybe the function should just be deleted anyway? But I don't want
deleting it -- potentially a huge project -- to block fixing
ilist/iplist.)

This was a flawed change - it just caused the getElementType call to be
deferred until later, when we really need to remove it. Now that the IR
for GlobalAliases has been updated, the root cause is addressed that way
instead and this change is no longer needed (and in fact gets in the way
- because we want to pass the pointee type directly down further).
Follow up patches to push this through GlobalValue, bitcode format, etc,
will come along soon.
This reverts commit 236160.
llvm-svn: 247585
This introduces the basic functionality to support "token types".
The motivation stems from the need to perform operations on a Value
whose provenance cannot be obscured.
There are several applications for such a type but my immediate
motivation stems from WinEH. Our personality routine enforces a
single-entry - single-exit regime for cleanups. After several rounds of
optimizations, we may be left with a terminator whose "cleanup-entry
block" is not entirely clear because control flow has merged two
cleanups together. We have experimented with using labels as operands
inside of instructions which are not terminators to indicate where we
came from but found that LLVM does not expect such exotic uses of
BasicBlocks.
Instead, we can use this new type to clearly associate the "entry point"
and "exit point" of our cleanup. This is done by having the cleanuppad
yield a Token and consuming it at the cleanupret.
The token type makes it impossible to obscure or otherwise hide the
Value, making it trivial to track the relationship between the two
points.
What is the burden to the optimizer? Well, it turns out we have already
paid down this cost by accepting that there are certain calls that we
are not permitted to duplicate, optimizations have to watch out for
such instructions anyway. There are additional places in the optimizer
that we will probably have to update but early examination has given me
the impression that this will not be heroic.

Revert the changes to the C API LLVMBuildLandingPad that were part of
the personality function move. We now set the personality on the parent
function when the C API attempts to construct a landingpad with a
personality.
This reverts commit r240010.
llvm-svn: 242372
Summary:
The capability was lost with D10429 where the personality function was set at function level rather than landing pad level. Now there is no way to get/set the personality function from the C API. That is a problem.
Note that the whole thing could be avoided by improving the C API testing, as started by D10725

The personality routine currently lives in the LandingPadInst.
This isn't desirable because:
- All LandingPadInsts in the same function must have the same
personality routine. This means that each LandingPadInst beyond the
first has an operand which produces no additional information.
- There is ongoing work to introduce EH IR constructs other than
LandingPadInst. Moving the personality routine off of any one
particular Instruction and onto the parent function seems a lot better
than have N different places a personality function can sneak onto an
exceptional function.

Many of the callers already have the pointer type anyway, and for the
couple of callers that don't it's pretty easy to call PointerType::get
on the pointee type and address space.
This avoids LLParser from using PointerType::getElementType when parsing
GlobalAliases from IR.

The i128 type is needed as a builtin type in order to support the v1i128 vector
type. The PowerPC ABI requires that the i128 and v1i128 types are handled
differently when passed as parameters to functions (i128 is passed in pairs of
GPRs, v1i128 is passed in a single vector register).
