Summary:
Right now we annotate C++'s `operator new` with `noalias` attribute,
which very much is healthy for optimizations.
However as per [[ http://eel.is/c++draft/basic.stc.dynamic.allocation | `[basic.stc.dynamic.allocation]` ]],
there are more promises on global `operator new`, namely:
* non-`std::nothrow_t` `operator new` *never* returns `nullptr`
* If `std::align_val_t align` parameter is taken, the pointer will also be `align`-aligned
* ~~global `operator new`-returned pointer is `__STDCPP_DEFAULT_NEW_ALIGNMENT__`-aligned ~~ It's more caveated than that.
Supplying this information may not cause immediate landslide effects
on any specific benchmarks, but it for sure will be healthy for optimizer
in the sense that the IR will better reflect the guarantees provided in the source code.
The caveat is `-fno-assume-sane-operator-new`, which currently prevents emitting `noalias`
attribute, and is automatically passed by Sanitizers ([[ https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16386 | PR16386 ]]) - should it also cover these attributes?
The problem is that the flag is back-end-specific, as seen in `test/Modules/explicit-build-flags.cpp`.
But while it is okay to add `noalias` metadata in backend, we really should be adding at least
the alignment metadata to the AST, since that allows us to perform sema checks on it.

Summary:
Clang -fpic defaults to -fno-semantic-interposition (GCC -fpic defaults
to -fsemantic-interposition).
Users need to specify -fsemantic-interposition to get semantic
interposition behavior.
Semantic interposition is currently a best-effort feature. There may
still be some cases where it is not handled well.

For consistency with normal instructions and clarity when reading IR,
it's best to print the %0, %1, ... names of function arguments in
definitions.
Also modifies the parser to accept IR in that form for obvious reasons.
llvm-svn: 367755
Summary:
Depends on https://reviews.llvm.org/D42605.
An implementation of the behavior described in `[dcl.fct.def.coroutine]/7`:
when a promise type overloads `operator new` using a "placement new"
that takes the same argument types as the coroutine function, that
overload is used when allocating the coroutine frame.
Simply passing references to the coroutine function parameters directly
to `operator new` results in invariant violations in LLVM's coroutine
splitting pass, so this implementation modifies Clang codegen to
produce allocator-specific alloc/store/loads for each parameter being
forwarded to the allocator.

Summary:
Fix NRVO for Gro variable.
Previously, we only marked the GRO declaration as an NRVO variable
when its QualType and the function return's QualType matched exactly
(using operator==). However, this was incorrect for two reasons:
1. We were marking non-class types, such as ints, as being NRVO variables.
2. We failed to handle cases where the canonical types were the same, but the actual `QualType` objects were different. For example, if one was represented by a typedef. (Example: https://godbolt.org/g/3UFgsL)
This patch fixes these bugs by marking the Gro variable as supporting NRVO only
when `BuildReturnStmt` marks the Gro variable as a coroutine candidate.
