We previously supported the align attribute on all (pointer) parameters, but we
only used it for byval parameters. However, it is completely consistent at the
IR level to treat 'align n' on all pointer parameters as an alignment
assumption on the pointer, and now we wll. Specifically, this causes
computeKnownBits to use the align attribute on all pointer parameters, not just
byval parameters. I've also added an explicit parameter attribute test for this
to test/Bitcode/attributes.ll.
And I've updated the LangRef to document the align parameter attribute (as it
turns out, it was not documented at all previously, although the byval
documentation mentioned that it could be used).
There are (at least) two benefits to doing this:
- It allows enhancing alignment based on the pointer alignment after inlining callees.
- It allows simplification of pointer arithmetic.

Without this, we produce non-extern relocations when targeting older OS X
versions that ld64 can't cope with in the particular context of __eh_frame
sections (who'd want generic relocation-processing anyway?).
This means that an updated linker (ld64 from Xcode 3.2.6 or later) may be
needed when targeting such platforms with a modern version of LLVM, but this is
probably the case anyway and a reasonable requirement.

to globally be controlled. Individual targets (e.g. ExceptionDemo) can
still override this by using LLVM_REQUIRE_RTTI and LLVM_REQUIRE_EH if
they need to be compiled with RTTI or exception handling respectively.

- When CMake builds the documentation with sphinx-build it treats
warnings as errors. We should be consistent with what we do in
CMake.
- Having warnings treated as errors will hopefully encourage
developers to write documentation correctly.

DAG into a helper function.
This adds a trip through the (very minimal) verification logic in
a bunch of places that were missing it, but shouldn't have any other
impact outside of refactoring. I'm hoping to use this to do more clever
things when DAG nodes are inserted into the graph.

a bug in 2010 when they were added but are adding no value today.
In fact, they are utter lies. NodeAllocator is used to allocate almost
all of these node types. I don't know what we were trying to assert
here, and the docs don't give any answer. Until we once again stumble
upon a bug needing help, let's clear the path for improvements.

As it turns out, the capture tracker named CaptureBefore used by AA, and now
available via the PointerMayBeCapturedBefore function, would have been
more-aptly named CapturedBeforeOrAt, because it considers captures at the
instruction provided. This is not always what one wants, and it is difficult to
get the strictly-before behavior given only the current interface. This adds an
additional parameter which controls whether or not you want to include
captures at the provided instruction. The default is not to include the
instruction provided, so that 'Before' matches its name.
No functionality change intended.

GCC believes it may be possible to not return a value from the switch:
lib/Target/R600/SIRegisterInfo.cpp:187:1: warning: control reaches end of non-void function [-Wreturn-type]
Add an unreachable label to indicate that this is not possible and still permit
switch coverage checking.

We should update the usages to all of the results;
otherwise, we might get assertion failure or SEGV during
the type legalization of ATOMIC_CMP_SWAP_WITH_SUCCESS
with two or more illegal types.
For example, in the following sequence, both i8 and i1
might be illegal in some target, e.g. armv5, mipsel, mips64el,
%0 = cmpxchg i8* %ptr, i8 %desire, i8 %new monotonic monotonic
%1 = extractvalue { i8, i1 } %0, 1
Since both i8 and i1 should be legalized, the corresponding
ATOMIC_CMP_SWAP_WITH_SUCCESS dag will be checked/replaced/updated
twice.
If we don't update the usage to *ALL* of the results in the
first round, the DAG for extractvalue might be processed earlier.
The GetPromotedInteger() will result in assertion failure,
because its operand (i.e. the success bit of cmpxchg) is not
promoted beforehand.

createBinary documented that it destroyed the parameter in error cases,
though by observation it does not. By passing the unique_ptr by value
rather than lvalue reference, callers are now explicit about passing
ownership and the function implements the documented contract. Remove
the explicit documentation, since now the behavior cannot be anything
other than what was documented, so it's redundant.
Also drops a unique_ptr::release in llvm-nm that was always run on a
null unique_ptr anyway.

There are a few more cleanups to do, but I ran into some problems
with ext loads and trunc stores, when I tried to change some of the
vector loads and stores from custom to legal, so I wasn't able to
get rid of everything.

We now emit this value when we need to contradict the default value. This
restores support for binutils 2.24.
When a suitable binutils has been released we can resume unconditionally
emitting .module directives. This is preferable to omitting the .module
directives since the .module directives protect against, for example,
accidentally assembling FP32 code with -mfp64 and producing an unusuable object.

This implements a solution for constant initializers suggested
by Vadim Girlin, where we store the data after the shader code
and then use the S_GETPC instruction to compute its address.
This saves use the trouble of creating a new buffer for constant data
and then having to pass the pointer to the kernel via user SGPRs or the
input buffer.

This abstraction allows us to support the various records that can be placed in
the .MIPS.options section in the future. We currently use it to record register
usage information (the ODK_REGINFO record in our ELF64 spec).
Each .MIPS.options record should subclass MipsOptionRecord and provide an
implementation of EmitMipsOptionRecord.
