InstCombineLoadStoreAlloca.cpp, which had many issues.
(At least two bugs were noted on llvm-commits, and it was overly conservative.)
Instead, use getOrEnforceKnownAlignment.

getIntPtrType support for multiple address spaces via a pointer type,
and also introduced a crasher bug in the constant folder reported in
PR14233.
These commits also contained several problems that should really be
addressed before they are re-committed. I have avoided reverting various
cleanups to the DataLayout APIs that are reasonable to have moving
forward in order to reduce the amount of churn, and minimize the number
of commits that were reverted. I've also manually updated merge
conflicts and manually arranged for the getIntPtrType function to stay
in DataLayout and to be defined in a plausible way after this revert.
Thanks to Duncan for working through this exact strategy with me, and
Nick Lewycky for tracking down the really annoying crasher this
triggered. (Test case to follow in its own commit.)
After discussing with Duncan extensively, and based on a note from
Micah, I'm going to continue to back out some more of the more
problematic patches in this series in order to ensure we go into the
LLVM 3.2 branch with a reasonable story here. I'll send a note to
llvmdev explaining what's going on and why.
Summary of reverted revisions:
r166634: Fix a compiler warning with an unused variable.
r166607: Add some cleanup to the DataLayout changes requested by
Chandler.
r166596: Revert "Back out r166591, not sure why this made it through
since I cancelled the command. Bleh, sorry about this!
r166591: Delete a directory that wasn't supposed to be checked in yet.
r166578: Add in support for getIntPtrType to get the pointer type based
on the address space.

This optimization is really just replacing allocas wholesale with
globals, there is no scalarization.
The underlying motivation for this patch is to simplify the SROA pass
and focus it on splitting and promoting allocas.

This patch removes ~70 lines in InstCombineLoadStoreAlloca.cpp and makes both functions a bit more aggressive than before :)
In theory, we can be more aggressive when removing an alloca than a malloc, because an alloca pointer should never escape, but we are not taking advantage of this anyway

merge all zero-sized alloca's into one, fixing c43204g from the Ada ACATS
conformance testsuite. What happened there was that a variable sized object
was being allocated on the stack, "alloca i8, i32 %size". It was then being
passed to another function, which tested that the address was not null (raising
an exception if it was) then manipulated %size bytes in it (load and/or store).
The optimizers cleverly managed to deduce that %size was zero (congratulations
to them, as it isn't at all obvious), which made the alloca zero size, causing
the optimizers to replace it with null, which then caused the check mentioned
above to fail, and the exception to be raised, wrongly. Note that no loads
and stores were actually being done to the alloca (the loop that does them is
executed %size times, i.e. is not executed), only the not-null address check.

GEPs, bit casts, and stores reaching it but no other instructions. These
often show up during the iterative processing of the inliner, SROA, and
DCE. Once we hit this point, we can completely remove the alloca. These
were actually showing up in the final, fully optimized code in a bunch
of inliner tests I've been working on, and notably they show up after
LLVM finishes optimizing away all function calls involved in
hash_combine(a, b).
llvm-svn: 154285
alignment. If that's the case, then we want to make sure that we don't increase
the alignment of the store instruction. Because if we increase it to be "more
aligned" than the pointer, code-gen may use instructions which require a greater
alignment than the pointer guarantees.

load and store reference same memory location, the memory location
is represented by getelementptr with two uses (load and store) and
the getelementptr's base is alloca with single use. At this point,
instructions from alloca to store can be removed.
(this pattern is generated when bitfield is accessed.)
For example,
%u = alloca %struct.test, align 4 ; [#uses=1]
%0 = getelementptr inbounds %struct.test* %u, i32 0, i32 0;[#uses=2]
%1 = load i8* %0, align 4 ; [#uses=1]
%2 = and i8 %1, -16 ; [#uses=1]
%3 = or i8 %2, 5 ; [#uses=1]
store i8 %3, i8* %0, align 4
llvm-svn: 127565
create a testcase where this matters. The select+load transformation only
occurs when isSafeToLoadUnconditionally is true, and in those situations,
instcombine also changes the underlying objects to be aligned. This seems
like a good idea regardless, and I've verified that it doesn't pessimize
the subsequent realignment.
