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.

Currently each Function points to a DISubprogram and DISubprogram has a
scope field. For member functions the scope is a DICompositeType. DIScopes
point to the DICompileUnit to facilitate type uniquing.
Distinct DISubprograms (with isDefinition: true) are not part of the type
hierarchy and cannot be uniqued. This change removes the subprograms
list from DICompileUnit and instead adds a pointer to the owning compile
unit to distinct DISubprograms. This would make it easy for ThinLTO to
strip unneeded DISubprograms and their transitively referenced debug info.
Motivation
----------
Materializing DISubprograms is currently the most expensive operation when
doing a ThinLTO build of clang.
We want the DISubprogram to be stored in a separate Bitcode block (or the
same block as the function body) so we can avoid having to expensively
deserialize all DISubprograms together with the global metadata. If a
function has been inlined into another subprogram we need to store a
reference the block containing the inlined subprogram.
Attached to https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=27284 is a python script
that updates LLVM IR testcases to the new format.

Do not emit profile arc files and note files for module and skeleton
CU's.
Our users report seeing unexpected *.gcda and *.gcno files in their
projects when using gcov-style profiling with modules or frameworks.
The unwanted files come from these modules. This is not very helpful
for end-users. Further, we've seen reports of instrumented programs
crashing while writing these files out (due to I/O failures).

Previously, subprograms contained a metadata reference to the function they
described. Because most clients need to get or set a subprogram for a given
function rather than the other way around, this created unneeded inefficiency.
For example, many passes needed to call the function llvm::makeSubprogramMap()
to build a mapping from functions to subprograms, and the IR linker needed to
fix up function references in a way that caused quadratic complexity in the IR
linking phase of LTO.
This change reverses the direction of the edge by storing the subprogram as
function-level metadata and removing DISubprogram's function field.
Since this is an IR change, a bitcode upgrade has been provided.
Fixes PR23367. An upgrade script for textual IR for out-of-tree clients is
attached to the PR.

Finish off PR23080 by renaming the debug info IR constructs from `MD*`
to `DI*`. The last of the `DIDescriptor` classes were deleted in
r235356, and the last of the related typedefs removed in r235413, so
this has all baked for about a week.
Note: If you have out-of-tree code (like a frontend), I recommend that
you get everything compiling and tests passing with the *previous*
commit before updating to this one. It'll be easier to keep track of
what code is using the `DIDescriptor` hierarchy and what you've already
updated, and I think you're extremely unlikely to insert bugs. YMMV of
course.
Back to *this* commit: I did this using the rename-md-di-nodes.sh
upgrade script I've attached to PR23080 (both code and testcases) and
filtered through clang-format-diff.py. I edited the tests for
test/Assembler/invalid-generic-debug-node-*.ll by hand since the columns
were off-by-three. It should work on your out-of-tree testcases (and
code, if you've followed the advice in the previous paragraph).
Some of the tests are in badly named files now (e.g.,
test/Assembler/invalid-mdcompositetype-missing-tag.ll should be
'dicompositetype'); I'll come back and move the files in a follow-up
commit.

Gut the `DIDescriptor` wrappers around `MDLocalScope` subclasses. Note
that `DILexicalBlock` wraps `MDLexicalBlockBase`, not `MDLexicalBlock`.

Replace all uses of `DITypedArray<>` with `MDTupleTypedArrayWrapper<>`
and `MDTypeRefArray`. The APIs are completely different, but the
provided functionality is the same: treat an `MDTuple` as if it's an
array of a particular element type.
To simplify this patch a bit, I've temporarily typedef'ed
`DebugNodeArray` to `DIArray` and `MDTypeRefArray` to `DITypeArray`.
I've also temporarily conditionalized the accessors to check for null --
eventually these should be changed to asserts and the callers should
check for null themselves.
There's a tiny accompanying patch to clang.
llvm-svn: 234290
The plan here is to push the API changes out from the common components
(like Constant::getGetElementPtr and IRBuilder::CreateGEP related
functions) and just update callers to either pass the type if it's
obvious, or pass null.
Do this with LoadInst as well and anything else that comes up, then to
start porting specific uses to not pass null anymore - this may require
some refactoring in each case.

By default we want our gcov emission to stay 4.2 compatible, which
means we need to continue emit the exit block last by default. We add
an option to emit it before the body for users that need it.

Since these are all created in the DenseMap before they are referenced,
there's no problem with pointer validity by the time it's required. This

which I'm cleaning up from time to time.

When generating gcov compatible profiling, we sometimes skip emitting
data for functions for one reason or another. However, this was
emitting different function IDs in the .gcno and .gcda files, because
the .gcno case was using the loop index before skipping functions and
the .gcda the array index after. This resulted in completely invalid
gcov data.
This fixes the problem by making the .gcno loop track the ID
separately from the loop index.

Change `NamedMDNode::getOperator()` from returning `MDNode *` to
returning `Value *`. To reduce boilerplate at some call sites, add a
`getOperatorAsMDNode()` for named metadata that's expected to only
return `MDNode` -- for now, that's everything, but debug node named
metadata (such as llvm.dbg.cu and llvm.dbg.sp) will soon change. This
is part of PR21433.
Note that there's a follow-up patch to clang for the API change.

string_ostream is a safe and efficient string builder that combines opaque
stack storage with a built-in ostream interface.
small_string_ostream<bytes> additionally permits an explicit stack storage size
other than the default 128 bytes to be provided. Beyond that, storage is
transferred to the heap.
This convenient class can be used in most places an
std::string+raw_string_ostream pair or SmallString<>+raw_svector_ostream pair
would previously have been used, in order to guarantee consistent access
without byte truncation.
The patch also converts much of LLVM to use the new facility. These changes
include several probable bug fixes for truncated output, a programming error
that's no longer possible with the new interface.

definition below all of the header #include lines, lib/Transforms/...
edition.
This one is tricky for two reasons. We again have a couple of passes
that define something else before the includes as well. I've sunk their
name macros with the DEBUG_TYPE.
Also, InstCombine contains headers that need DEBUG_TYPE, so now those
headers #define and #undef DEBUG_TYPE around their code, leaving them
well formed modular headers. Fixing these headers was a large motivation
for all of these changes, as "leaky" macros of this form are hard on the
modules implementation.

This compiles with no changes to clang/lld/lldb with MSVC and includes
overloads to various functions which are used by those projects and llvm
which have OwningPtr's as parameters. This should allow out of tree
projects some time to move. There are also no changes to libs/Target,
which should help out of tree targets have time to move, if necessary.

already lived there and it is where it belongs -- this is the in-memory
debug location representation.
This is just cleanup -- Modules can actually cope with this, but that
doesn't make it right. After chatting with folks that have out-of-tree

business.
This header includes Function and BasicBlock and directly uses the
interfaces of both classes. It has to do with the IR, it even has that
in the name. =] Put it in the library it belongs to.
This is one step toward making LLVM's Support library survive a C++
modules bootstrap.

After this I will set the default back to F_None. The advantage is that
before this patch forgetting to set F_Binary would corrupt a file on windows.
Forgetting to set F_Text produces one that cannot be read in notepad, which
