There was an efficiency problem with how we processed @llvm.assume in
ValueTracking (and other places). The AssumptionCache tracked all of the
assumptions in a given function. In order to find assumptions relevant to
computing known bits, etc. we searched every assumption in the function. For
ValueTracking, that means that we did O(#assumes * #values) work in InstCombine
and other passes (with a constant factor that can be quite large because we'd
repeat this search at every level of recursion of the analysis).
Several of us discussed this situation at the last developers' meeting, and
this implements the discussed solution: Make the values that an assume might
affect operands of the assume itself. To avoid exposing this detail to
frontends and passes that need not worry about it, I've used the new
operand-bundle feature to add these extra call "operands" in a way that does
not affect the intrinsic's signature. I think this solution is relatively
clean. InstCombine adds these extra operands based on what ValueTracking, LVI,
etc. will need and then those passes need only search the users of the values
under consideration. This should fix the computational-complexity problem.
At this point, no passes depend on the AssumptionCache, and so I'll remove
that as a follow-up change.

Summary:
Attaching !absolute_symbol to a global variable does two things:
1) Marks it as an absolute symbol reference.
2) Specifies the value range of that symbol's address.
Teach the X86 backend to allow absolute symbols to appear in place of
immediates by extending the relocImm and mov64imm32 matchers. Start using
relocImm in more places where it is legal.

If the inrange keyword is present before any index, loading from or

llvm-svn: 278053
Summary:
Based on two patches by Michael Mueller.
This is a target attribute that causes a function marked with it to be
emitted as "hotpatchable". This particular mechanism was originally
devised by Microsoft for patching their binaries (which they are
constantly updating to stay ahead of crackers, script kiddies, and other
ne'er-do-wells on the Internet), but is now commonly abused by Windows
programs to hook API functions.
This mechanism is target-specific. For x86, a two-byte no-op instruction
is emitted at the function's entry point; the entry point must be
immediately preceded by 64 (32-bit) or 128 (64-bit) bytes of padding.
This padding is where the patch code is written. The two byte no-op is
then overwritten with a short jump into this code. The no-op is usually
a `movl %edi, %edi` instruction; this is used as a magic value
indicating that this is a hotpatchable function.

This intrinsic safely loads a function pointer from a virtual table pointer
using type metadata. This intrinsic is used to implement control flow integrity
in conjunction with virtual call optimization. The virtual call optimization
pass will optimize away llvm.type.checked.load intrinsics associated with
devirtualized calls, thereby removing the type check in cases where it is
not needed to enforce the control flow integrity constraint.
This patch also introduces the capability to copy type metadata between
global variables, and teaches the virtual call optimization pass to do so.

The bitset metadata currently used in LLVM has a few problems:
1. It has the wrong name. The name "bitset" refers to an implementation
detail of one use of the metadata (i.e. its original use case, CFI).
This makes it harder to understand, as the name makes no sense in the
context of virtual call optimization.
2. It is represented using a global named metadata node, rather than
being directly associated with a global. This makes it harder to
manipulate the metadata when rebuilding global variables, summarise it
as part of ThinLTO and drop unused metadata when associated globals are
dropped. For this reason, CFI does not currently work correctly when
both CFI and vcall opt are enabled, as vcall opt needs to rebuild vtable
globals, and fails to associate metadata with the rebuilt globals. As I
understand it, the same problem could also affect ASan, which rebuilds
globals with a red zone.
This patch solves both of those problems in the following way:
1. Rename the metadata to "type metadata". This new name reflects how
the metadata is currently being used (i.e. to represent type information
for CFI and vtable opt). The new name is reflected in the name for the
associated intrinsic (llvm.type.test) and pass (LowerTypeTests).
2. Attach metadata directly to the globals that it pertains to, rather
than using the "llvm.bitsets" global metadata node as we are doing now.
This is done using the newly introduced capability to attach
metadata to global variables (r271348 and r271358).

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.

In practice only a few well known appending linkage variables work.
Currently if codegen sees an unknown appending linkage variable it will

This new verifier rule lets us unambigously pick a calling convention
when creating a new declaration for
`@llvm.experimental.deoptimize.<ty>`. It is also congruent with our
lowering strategy -- since all calls to `@llvm.experimental.deoptimize`
are lowered to calls to `__llvm_deoptimize`, it is reasonable to enforce
a unique calling convention.
Some of the tests that were breaking this verifier rule have had to be
split up into different .ll files.
The inliner was violating this rule as well, and has been fixed to avoid
producing invalid IR.

An oddity of the .ll syntax is that the "@var = " in
@var = global i32 42

global i32 42
is equivalent to
@0 = global i32 42

current implementation maintains it manually. I was trying to refactor
it, but then started wondering why keep it a all. I personally find the
above syntax confusing. It looks like something is missing.

Summary:
D19403 adds a new pragma for loop distribution. This change adds
support for the corresponding metadata that the pragma is translated to
by the FE.
As part of this I had to rethink the flag -enable-loop-distribute. My
goal was to be backward compatible with the existing behavior:
A1. pass is off by default from the optimization pipeline
unless -enable-loop-distribute is specified
A2. pass is on when invoked directly from opt (e.g. for unit-testing)
The new pragma/metadata overrides these defaults so the new behavior is:
B1. A1 + enable distribution for individual loop with the pragma/metadata
B2. A2 + disable distribution for individual loop with the pragma/metadata
The default value whether the pass is on or off comes from the initiator
of the pass. From the PassManagerBuilder the default is off, from opt
it's on.
I moved -enable-loop-distribute under the pass. If the flag is
specified it overrides the default from above.
Then the pragma/metadata can further modifies this per loop.
As a side-effect, we can now also use -enable-loop-distribute=0 from opt
to emulate the default from the optimization pipeline. So to be precise
this is the new behavior:
C1. pass is off by default from the optimization pipeline
unless -enable-loop-distribute or the pragma/metadata enables it
C2. pass is on when invoked directly from opt
unless -enable-loop-distribute=0 or the pragma/metadata disables it

I really thought we were doing this already, but we were not. Given this input:

for (int i = 0; i < 16; i++)
res[i] = (p[i] == 0) ? res[i] : res[i] + d[i];
}
we did not vectorize the loop. Even with "assume_safety" the check that we
don't if-convert conditionally-executed loads (to protect against
data-dependent deferenceability) was not elided.
One subtlety: As implemented, it will still prefer to use a masked-load
instrinsic (given target support) over the speculated load. The choice here
seems architecture specific; the best option depends on how expensive the
masked load is compared to a regular load. Ideally, using the masked load still
reduces unnecessary memory traffic, and so should be preferred. If we'd rather
do it the other way, flipping the order of the checks is easy.

This intrinsic takes two arguments, ``%ptr`` and ``%offset``. It loads
a 32-bit value from the address ``%ptr + %offset``, adds ``%ptr`` to that
value and returns it. The constant folder specifically recognizes the form of
this intrinsic and the constant initializers it may load from; if a loaded
constant initializer is known to have the form ``i32 trunc(x - %ptr)``,
the intrinsic call is folded to ``x``.
LLVM provides that the calculation of such a constant initializer will
not overflow at link time under the medium code model if ``x`` is an
``unnamed_addr`` function. However, it does not provide this guarantee for
a constant initializer folded into a function body. This intrinsic can be
used to avoid the possibility of overflows when loading from such a constant.

With this change, ideally IR pass can always generate llvm.stackguard
call to get the stack guard; but for now there are still IR form stack
guard customizations around (see getIRStackGuard()). Future SSP
customization should go through LOAD_STACK_GUARD.
There is a behavior change: stack guard values are not CSEed anymore,
since we should never reuse the value in case that it has been spilled (and
corrupted). See ssp-guard-spill.ll. This also cause the change of stack
size and codegen in X86 and AArch64 test cases.
Ideally we'd like to know if the guard created in llvm.stackprotector() gets
spilled or not. If the value is spilled, discard the value and reload
stack guard; otherwise reuse the value. This can be done by teaching
register allocator to know how to rematerialize LOAD_STACK_GUARD and
force a rematerialization (which seems hard), or check for spilling in
expandPostRAPseudo. It only makes sense when the stack guard is a global
variable, which requires more instructions to load. Anyway, this seems to go out
of the scope of the current patch.

Rather than relying on the structural equivalence of DICompositeType to
merge type definitions, use an explicit map on the LLVMContext that
LLParser and BitcodeReader consult when constructing new nodes.
Each non-forward-declaration DICompositeType with a non-empty
'identifier:' field is stored/loaded from the type map, and the first
definiton will "win".
This map is opt-in: clients that expect ODR types from different modules
to be merged must call LLVMContext::ensureDITypeMap.
- Clients that just happen to load more than one Module in the same
LLVMContext won't magically merge types.
- Clients (like LTO) that want to continue to merge types based on ODR
identifiers should opt-in immediately.
I have updated LTOCodeGenerator.cpp, the two "linking" spots in
gold-plugin.cpp, and llvm-link (unless -disable-debug-info-type-map) to
set this.
With this in place, it will be straightforward to remove the DITypeRef

than pointing at them directly).

Merge members that are describing the same member of the same ODR type,

For DISubprogram declarations, this looks at the LinkageName and Scope.

Summary:
This intrinsic, together with deoptimization operand bundles, allow
frontends to express transfer of control and frame-local state from
one (typically more specialized, hence faster) version of a function
into another (typically more generic, hence slower) version.
In languages with a fully integrated managed runtime this intrinsic can
be used to implement "uncommon trap" like functionality. In unmanaged
languages like C and C++, this intrinsic can be used to represent the
slow paths of specialized functions.
Note: this change does not address how `@llvm.experimental_deoptimize`
is lowered. That will be done in a later change.

This patch fixes the problem which occurs when loop-vectorize tries to use @llvm.masked.load/store intrinsic for a non-default addrspace pointer. It fails with "Calling a function with a bad signature!" assertion in CallInst constructor because it tries to pass a non-default addrspace pointer to the pointer argument which has default addrspace.
The fix is to add pointer type as another overloaded type to @llvm.masked.load/store intrinsics.

Today, we do not allow cmpxchg operations with pointer arguments. We require the frontend to insert ptrtoint casts and do the cmpxchg in integers. While correct, this is problematic from a couple of perspectives:
1) It makes the IR harder to analyse (for instance, it make capture tracking overly conservative)
2) It pushes work onto the frontend authors for no real gain
This patch implements the simplest form of IR support. As we did with floating point loads and stores, we teach AtomicExpand to convert back to the old representation. This prevents us needing to change all backends in a single lock step change. Over time, we can migrate each backend to natively selecting the pointer type. In the meantime, we get the advantages of a cleaner IR representation without waiting for the backend changes.

Summary:
As previously written, only functions could be convergent. But calls
need to have a notion of convergence as well.
To see why this is important, consider an indirect call. We may or may
not want to disable optimizations around it and behave as though we're
calling a convergent function -- it depends on the semantics of the
language we're compiling. Thus the need for this attr on the call.

Summary:
Be more explicit about what 'convergent' means, and indicate that the
compiler may remove the attribute from a function if it can prove that
the function doesn't in fact execute any convergent ops.

This matches GCC and MSVC's behaviour, and saves on code size.
We were already not extending i1 return values on x86_64 after r127766. This
takes that patch further by applying it to x86 target as well, and also for i8
and i16.
The ABI docs have been unclear about the required behaviour here. The new i386
psABI [1] clearly states (Table 2.4, page 14) that i1, i8, and i16 return
vales do not need to be extended beyond 8 bits. The x86_64 ABI doc is being
updated to say the same [2].
