TLDR: the original patch had no prior RFC, yet it had some changes that
really need a proper RFC discussion. It won't be productive to discuss
such an RFC, once it's actually posted, while said patch is already
committed, because that introduces bias towards already-committed stuff,
and the tree is potentially in broken state meanwhile.
While the end result of discussion may lead back to the current design,
it may also not lead to the current design.
Therefore i take it upon myself
to revert the tree back to last known good state.

This tutorial will guide you through the process of making a change to LLVM, and contributing it back to the LLVM project.
We'll be making a change to Clang, but the steps for other parts of LLVM are the same. Even though the change we'll be making is simple,
we're going to cover steps like building LLVM, running the tests, and code review. This is good practice, and you'll be prepared for making larger changes.

To enable these Views within mca, targets will need to add them to the vector of

Add support for the GNU C style __attribute__((error(""))) and
__attribute__((warning(""))). These attributes are meant to be put on
declarations of functions whom should not be called.
They are frequently used to provide compile time diagnostics similar to
_Static_assert, but which may rely on non-ICE conditions (ie. relying on
compiler optimizations). This is also similar to diagnose_if function
attribute, but can diagnose after optimizations have been run.
While users may instead simply call undefined functions in such cases to
get a linkage failure from the linker, these provide a much more
ergonomic and actionable diagnostic to users and do so at compile time
rather than at link time. Users instead may be able use inline asm .err
directives.
These are used throughout the Linux kernel in its implementation of
BUILD_BUG and BUILD_BUG_ON macros. These macros generally cannot be
converted to use _Static_assert because many of the parameters are not
ICEs. The Linux kernel still needs to be modified to make use of these
when building with Clang; I have a patch that does so I will send once
this feature is landed.
To do so, we create a new IR level Function attribute, "dontcall" (both
error and warning boil down to one IR Fn Attr). Then, similar to calls
to inline asm, we attach a !srcloc Metadata node to call sites of such
attributed callees.
The backend diagnoses these during instruction selection, while we still
know that a call is a call (vs say a JMP that's a tail call) in an arch
agnostic manner.
The frontend then reconstructs the SourceLocation from that Metadata,
and determines whether to emit an error or warning based on the callee's
attribute.

The purpose of __attribute__((disable_sanitizer_instrumentation)) is to
prevent all kinds of sanitizer instrumentation applied to a certain

The no_sanitize(...) attribute drops instrumentation checks, but may

though (e.g. when building Linux kernel with -fsanitize=kernel-memory
or -fsanitize=thread) the users may want to avoid any kind of

This patch adds vector-predicated ("VP") reduction intrinsics corresponding to
each of the existing unpredicated `llvm.vector.reduce.*` versions. Unlike the
unpredicated reductions, all VP reductions have a start value. This start value
is returned when the no vector element is active.
Support for expansion on targets without native vector-predication support is
included.
This patch is based on the ["reduction

(https://reviews.llvm.org/D57504).

This reverts the revert 28c04794df.
The failing MLIR test that caused the revert should be fixed in this
version.
Also includes a PPC test fix previously in 1f87c7c478.
This patch adjusts the intrinsics definition of
llvm.matrix.column.major.load and llvm.matrix.column.major.store to
allow overloading the type of the stride. The bitwidth of the stride is
used to perform the offset computation.
This fixes a crash when using __builtin_matrix_column_major_load or
__builtin_matrix_column_major_store on 32 bit platforms. The stride argument
of the builtins are defined as `size_t`, which is 32 bits wide on 32 bit
platforms.
Note that we still perform offset computations with 64 bit width on 32
bit platforms for accesses that do not take a user-specified stride.
This can be fixed separately.
Fixes PR51304.

This is recommit of the patch 16ff91ebcc,
reverted in 0c28a7c990 because it had
an error in call of getFastMathFlags (base type should be FPMathOperator
but not Instruction). The original commit message is duplicated below:
Clang has builtin function '__builtin_isnan', which implements C
library function 'isnan'. This function now is implemented entirely in
clang codegen, which expands the function into set of IR operations.
There are three mechanisms by which the expansion can be made.
* The most common mechanism is using an unordered comparison made by
instruction 'fcmp uno'. This simple solution is target-independent
and works well in most cases. It however is not suitable if floating
point exceptions are tracked. Corresponding IEEE 754 operation and C
function must never raise FP exception, even if the argument is a
signaling NaN. Compare instructions usually does not have such
property, they raise 'invalid' exception in such case. So this
mechanism is unsuitable when exception behavior is strict. In
particular it could result in unexpected trapping if argument is SNaN.
* Another solution was implemented in https://reviews.llvm.org/D95948.
It is used in the cases when raising FP exceptions by 'isnan' is not
allowed. This solution implements 'isnan' using integer operations.
It solves the problem of exceptions, but offers one solution for all
targets, however some can do the check in more efficient way.
* Solution implemented by https://reviews.llvm.org/D96568 introduced a
hook 'clang::TargetCodeGenInfo::testFPKind', which injects target
specific code into IR. Now only SystemZ implements this hook and it
generates a call to target specific intrinsic function.
Although these mechanisms allow to implement 'isnan' with enough
efficiency, expanding 'isnan' in clang has drawbacks:
* The operation 'isnan' is hidden behind generic integer operations or
target-specific intrinsics. It complicates analysis and can prevent
some optimizations.
* IR can be created by tools other than clang, in this case treatment
of 'isnan' has to be duplicated in that tool.
Another issue with the current implementation of 'isnan' comes from the
use of options '-ffast-math' or '-fno-honor-nans'. If such option is
specified, 'fcmp uno' may be optimized to 'false'. It is valid
optimization in general, but it results in 'isnan' always returning
'false'. For example, in some libc++ implementations the following code
returns 'false':
std::isnan(std::numeric_limits<float>::quiet_NaN())
The options '-ffast-math' and '-fno-honor-nans' imply that FP operation
operands are never NaNs. This assumption however should not be applied
to the functions that check FP number properties, including 'isnan'. If
such function returns expected result instead of actually making
checks, it becomes useless in many cases. The option '-ffast-math' is
often used for performance critical code, as it can speed up execution
by the expense of manual treatment of corner cases. If 'isnan' returns
assumed result, a user cannot use it in the manual treatment of NaNs
and has to invent replacements, like making the check using integer
operations. There is a discussion in https://reviews.llvm.org/D18513#387418,
which also expresses the opinion, that limitations imposed by
'-ffast-math' should be applied only to 'math' functions but not to
'tests'.
To overcome these drawbacks, this change introduces a new IR intrinsic
function 'llvm.isnan', which realizes the check as specified by IEEE-754
and C standards in target-agnostic way. During IR transformations it
does not undergo undesirable optimizations. It reaches instruction
selection, where is lowered in target-dependent way. The lowering can
vary depending on options like '-ffast-math' or '-ffp-model' so the
resulting code satisfies requested semantics.
