Summary:
Make enum ModRefInfo an enum class. Changes to ModRefInfo values should
be done using inline wrappers.
This should prevent future bit-wise opearations from being added, which can be more error-prone.

Summary:
The aim is to make ModRefInfo checks and changes more intuitive
and less error prone using inline methods that abstract the bit operations.
Ideally ModRefInfo would become an enum class, but that change will require
a wider set of changes into FunctionModRefBehavior.

My fix is conservative and will make us return may-alias instead.
The test case is:
check(gep(x, 0), n, gep(x, n), -1) with n == sizeof(x)
Here, the first value accesses the whole object, but the second access
doesn't access anything. The semantics of -1 is read until the end of the
object, which in this case means read nothing.
No test case, since isn't trivial to exploit this one, but I've proved it correct.

Remove code that assumed that a nullptr of address space != 0 couldnt alias with a non-null pointer. This is incorrect, since nothing can be concluded about a null pointer in an address space != 0.
This code was written before address spaces were introduced

This matches the checks done at the beginning of isKnownNonEqual that this code is partially emulating.
Without this we can get assertion failures due to the bit widths of the KnownBits not matching.

Using various methods, BasicAA tries to determine whether two
GetElementPtr memory locations alias when its base pointers are known
to be equal. When none of its heuristics are applicable, it falls back
to PartialAlias to, according to a comment, protect TBAA making a wrong
decision in case of unions and malloc. PartialAlias is not correct,
because a PartialAlias result implies that some, but not all, bytes
overlap which is not necessarily the case here.
AAResults returns the first analysis result that is not MayAlias.
BasicAA is always the first alias analysis. When it returns
PartialAlias, no other analysis is queried to give a more exact result
(which was the intention of returning PartialAlias instead of MayAlias).
For instance, ScopedAA could return a more accurate result.
The PartialAlias hack was introduced in r131781 (and re-applied in
r132632 after some reverts) to fix llvm.org/PR9971 where TBAA returns a
wrong NoAlias result due to a union. A test case for the malloc case
mentioned in the comment was not provided and I don't think it is
affected since it returns an omnipotent char anyway.
Since r303851 (https://reviews.llvm.org/D33328) clang does emit specific
TBAA for unions anymore (but "omnipotent char" instead). Hence, the
PartialAlias workaround is not required anymore.
This patch passes the test-suite and check-llvm/check-clang of a
self-hoisted build on x64.

This is a fix for the test case in PR32314.
Basic Alias Analysis can ask if two nodes are known non-equal after looking through a phi node to find a GEP. isAddOfNonZero saw an add of a constant from the same phi and said that its output couldn't be equal. But Basic Alias Analysis was really asking about the value from the previous loop iteration.
This patch at least makes that case not happen anymore, I'm not sure if there were still other ways this can fail. As was discussed in the bug, it looks like fixing BasicAA would be difficult so this patch seemed like a possible workaround

Summary:
llvm.invariant.group.barrier returns pointer that mustalias
pointer it takes. It can't be marked with `returned` attribute,
because it would be remove easily. The other reason is that
only Alias Analysis can know about this, because if any other
pass would know it, then the result would be replaced with it's
argument, which would be invalid.
We can think about returned pointer as something that mustalias, but
it doesn't have to be bitwise the same as the argument.

BasicAA wants to know if a function is either a malloc or calloc like function. Currently we have to check both separately. This means both calls check if its an intrinsic, query TLI, check the nobuiltin attribute, scan the AllocationFnData, etc.
This patch adds a isMallocOrCallocLikeFn so we can go through all of the checks once per call.
This also changes the one other location I saw that called both together.

This is fixing pr31761: BasicAA is deducing NoAlias
on the result of the GEP if the base pointer is itself NoAlias.
This is possible only if the NoAlias on the base pointer is
deduced with a non-sized query: this should guarantee that
the pointers are belonging to different memory allocation
and that the GEP can't legally jump from one to another.

Summary:
The LibFunc::Func enum holds enumerators named for libc functions.
Unfortunately, there are real situations, including libc implementations, where
function names are actually macros (musl uses "#define fopen64 fopen", for
example; any other transitively visible macro would have similar effects).
Strictly speaking, a conforming C++ Standard Library should provide any such
macros as functions instead (via <cstdio>). However, there are some "library"
functions which are not part of the standard, and thus not subject to this
rule (fopen64, for example). So, in order to be both portable and consistent,
the enum should not use the bare function names.
The old enum naming used a namespace LibFunc and an enum Func, with bare
enumerators. This patch changes LibFunc to be an enum with enumerators prefixed
with "LibFFunc_". (Unfortunately, a scoped enum is not sufficient to override
macros.)
There are additional changes required in clang.

There is no need to do this within an analysis. That method shouldn't
even be reached if this predicate holds as the actual useful
optimization is in the analysis manager itself.

This requires custom handling because BasicAA caches handles to other
analyses and so it needs to trigger indirect invalidation.
This fixes one of the common crashes when using the new PM in real
pipelines. I've also tweaked a regression test to check that we are at
least handling the most immediate case.
I'm going to work at re-structuring this test some to both scale better
(rather than all being in one file) and check more invalidation paths in
a follow-up commit, but I wanted to get the basic bug fix in place.

analyses to have a common type which is enforced rather than using
a char object and a `void *` type when used as an identifier.
This has a number of advantages. First, it at least helps some of the
confusion raised in Justin Lebar's code review of why `void *` was being
used everywhere by having a stronger type that connects to documentation
about this.
However, perhaps more importantly, it addresses a serious issue where
the alignment of these pointer-like identifiers was unknown. This made
it hard to use them in pointer-like data structures. We were already
dodging this in dangerous ways to create the "all analyses" entry. In
a subsequent patch I attempted to use these with TinyPtrVector and
things fell apart in a very bad way.
And it isn't just a compile time or type system issue. Worse than that,
the actual alignment of these pointer-like opaque identifiers wasn't
guaranteed to be a useful alignment as they were just characters.
This change introduces a type to use as the "key" object whose address
forms the opaque identifier. This both forces the objects to have proper
alignment, and provides type checking that we get it right everywhere.
It also makes the types somewhat less mysterious than `void *`.
We could go one step further and introduce a truly opaque pointer-like
type to return from the `ID()` static function rather than returning
`AnalysisKey *`, but that didn't seem to be a clear win so this is just
the initial change to get to a reliably typed and aligned object serving
is a key for all the analyses.
Thanks to Richard Smith and Justin Lebar for helping pick plausible
names and avoid making this refactoring many times. =] And thanks to
Sean for the super fast review!
While here, I've tried to move away from the "PassID" nomenclature
entirely as it wasn't really helping and is overloaded with old pass
manager constructs. Now we have IDs for analyses, and key objects whose
address can be used as IDs. Where possible and clear I've shortened this
to just "ID". In a few places I kept "AnalysisID" to make it clear what
was being identified.

In BasicAA GEP operand values get adjusted ("wrap-around") based on the
pointersize. Otherwise, in non-64b modes, AA could report false negatives.
However, a wrap-around is valid only for a fully evaluated expression.
It had been introduced to fix an alias problem in
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20160118/326163.html.
This commit restricts the wrap-around to constant gep operands only where the
value is known at compile-time.
