This patch implements Chandler's idea [0] for supporting languages that
require support for infinite loops with side effects, such as Rust, providing
part of a solution to bug 965 [1].
Specifically, it adds an `llvm.sideeffect()` intrinsic, which has no actual
effect, but which appears to optimization passes to have obscure side effects,
such that they don't optimize away loops containing it. It also teaches
several optimization passes to ignore this intrinsic, so that it doesn't
significantly impact optimization in most cases.
As discussed on llvm-dev [2], this patch is the first of two major parts.
The second part, to change LLVM's semantics to have defined behavior
on infinite loops by default, with a function attribute for opting into
potential-undefined-behavior, will be implemented and posted for review in
a separate patch.

It's not guaranteed. There's a bug open to sort them in predecessor
order, but it won't happen anytime soon. In the meanwhile, passes
will have to do an O(#preds) scan. Such is life.

Summary:
After a discussion with Rekka, i believe this (or a small variant)
should fix the remaining phi-of-ops problems.
Rekka's algorithm for completeness relies on looking up expressions
that should have no leader, and expecting it to fail (IE looking up
expressions that can't exist in a predecessor, and expecting it to
find nothing).
Unfortunately, sometimes these expressions can be simplified to
constants, but we need the lookup to fail anyway. Additionally, our
simplifier outsmarts this by taking these "not quite right"
expressions, and simplifying them into other expressions or walking
through phis, etc. In the past, we've sometimes been able to find
leaders for these expressions, incorrectly.
This change causes us to not to try to phi of ops such expressions.
We determine safety by seeing if they depend on a phi node in our
block.
This is not perfect, we can do a bit better, but this should be a
"correctness start" that we can then improve. It also requires a
bunch of caching that i'll eventually like to eliminate.
The right solution, longer term, to the simplifier issues, is to make
the query interface for the instruction simplifier/constant folder
have the flags we need, so that we can keep most things going, but
turn off the possibly-invalid parts (threading through phis, etc).
This is an issue in another wrong code bug as well.

Summary:
The New Pass Manager infrastructure was forgetting to keep around the optimization remark yaml file that the compiler might have been producing. This meant setting the option to '-' for stdout worked, but setting it to a filename didn't give file output (presumably it was deleted because compilation didn't explicitly keep it). This change just ensures that the file is kept if compilation succeeds.
So far I have updated one of the optimization remark output tests to add a version with the new pass manager. It is my intention for this patch to also include changes to all tests that use `-opt-remark-output=` but I wanted to get the code patch ready for review while I was making all those changes.

This is fine as nothing in the code relies on leader and memory
leader being the same for a given congruency class. Ack'ed by
Dan.

1. When there is no perfect iteration order, we can't let phi nodes
put themselves in terms of things that come later in the iteration
order, or we will endlessly cycle (the normal RPO algorithm clears the
hashtable to avoid this issue).
2. We are sometimes erasing the wrong expression (causing pessimism)
because our equality says loads and stores are the same.
We introduce an exact equality function and use it when erasing to
make sure we erase only identical expressions, not equivalent ones.
llvm-svn: 304807
Otherwise we don't revisit an instruction that could be simplified,
and when we verify, we discover there's something that changed, i.e.
what we had wasn't a maximal fixpoint.

Taken from PR32845. Dan removed the most dominating leader check

In the case where we have an operand defined by a lod of the
same memory location. Historically this was a VariableExpression
because we wanted to make sure they ended up in the same class,
but if we create the right expression, they end up in the same
class anyway.
Fixes PR32897. Thanks to Dan for the detailed discussion and the
fix suggestion.

This is a complicated bug involving two issues:
1. What do we do with phi nodes when we prove all arguments are not
live?
2. When is it safe to use value leaders to determine if we can ignore
an argumnet?

Summary:
NewGVN: Handle equivalence between phi of ops and op of phis.
This makes our GVN mostly-complete. It would be complete, modulo some
deliberate choices we make. This means it detects roughly all herband
equivalences in polynomial time, including cases notoriously hard for
other GVN's to detect. It also detects a very large swath of the
cases we currently rely on instcombine to detect that involve folding
upwards through phis.

We can have cycles between PHIs and this causes singleReachablePhi()
to call itself indefintely (until we run out of stack). The proper
solution would be that of computing SCCs, but it's not worth for
now, so just keep a visited set and give up when we find a cycle.
Thanks to Dan for the discussion/help with this.
Fixes PR33014.

verifyMemoryCongruency() filters out trivially dead MemoryDef(s),
as we find them immediately dead, before moving from TOP to a new
congruence class.
This fixes the same problem for PHI(s) skipping MemoryPhis if all
the operands are dead.

I bet the change is correct but this test seems to expose some underlying
problem that manifest only on some buildbots, and I'm not able to reproduce
locally. Unfortunately I can't debug right now but I don't want to annoy
people with spurious failures, so I'll XFAIL until I can take a look (over
the weekend).

This code was missing a check for stores, so we were thinking the
congruency class didn't have any memory members, and reset the
memory leader.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D33056
llvm-svn: 302905
The way we currently define congruency for two PHIExpression(s) is:
1) The operands to the phi functions are congruent
2) The PHIs are defined in the same BasicBlock.
NewGVN works under the assumption that phi operands are in predecessor
order, or at least in some consistent order. OTOH, is valid IR:
patatino:
%meh = phi i16 [ %0, %winky ], [ %conv1, %tinky ]
%banana = phi i16 [ %0, %tinky ], [ %conv1, %winky ]
br label %end
and the in-memory representations of the two SSA registers have an
inconsistent order. This violation of NewGVN assumptions results into
two PHIs found congruent when they're not. While we think it's useful
to have always a consistent order enforced, let's fix this in NewGVN
sorting uses in predecessor order before creating a PHI expression.

Summary:
getModRefInfo is meant to answer the question "what impact does this
instruction have on a given memory location" (not even another
instruction).
Long debate on this on IRC comes to the conclusion the answer should be "nothing special".
That is, a noalias volatile store does not affect a memory location
just by being volatile. Note: DSE and GVN and memdep currently
believe this, because memdep just goes behind AA's back after it says
"modref" right now.
see line 635 of memdep. Prior to this patch we would get modref there, then check aliasing,
and if it said noalias, we would continue.
getModRefInfo *already* has this same AA check, it just wasn't being used because volatile was
lumped in with ordering.
(I am separately testing whether this code in memdep is now dead except for the invariant load case)
