Daniel Neilson 1e68724d24 Remove alignment argument from memcpy/memmove/memset in favour of alignment attributes (Step 1)
Summary:
 This is a resurrection of work first proposed and discussed in Aug 2015:
   http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2015-August/089384.html
and initially landed (but then backed out) in Nov 2015:
   http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20151109/312083.html

 The @llvm.memcpy/memmove/memset intrinsics currently have an explicit argument
which is required to be a constant integer. It represents the alignment of the
dest (and source), and so must be the minimum of the actual alignment of the
two.

 This change is the first in a series that allows source and dest to each
have their own alignments by using the alignment attribute on their arguments.

 In this change we:
1) Remove the alignment argument.
2) Add alignment attributes to the source & dest arguments. We, temporarily,
   require that the alignments for source & dest be equal.

 For example, code which used to read:
  call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* %dest, i8* %src, i32 100, i32 4, i1 false)
will now read
  call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* align 4 %dest, i8* align 4 %src, i32 100, i1 false)

 Downstream users may have to update their lit tests that check for
@llvm.memcpy/memmove/memset call/declaration patterns. The following extended sed script
may help with updating the majority of your tests, but it does not catch all possible
patterns so some manual checking and updating will be required.

 The remaining changes in the series will:
Step 2) Expand the IRBuilder API to allow creation of memcpy/memmove with differing
   source and dest alignments.
Step 3) Update Clang to use the new IRBuilder API.
Step 4) Update Polly to use the new IRBuilder API.
Step 5) Update LLVM passes that create memcpy/memmove calls to use the new IRBuilder API,
        and those that use use MemIntrinsicInst::[get|set]Alignment() to use
        getDestAlignment() and getSourceAlignment() instead.
Step 6) Remove the single-alignment IRBuilder API for memcpy/memmove, and the
        MemIntrinsicInst::[get|set]Alignment() methods.

Pete Cooper 72bc23ef02 Change memcpy/memset/memmove to have dest and source alignments.
Note, this was reviewed (and more details are in) http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20151109/312083.html

These intrinsics currently have an explicit alignment argument which is
required to be a constant integer.  It represents the alignment of the
source and dest, and so must be the minimum of those.

This change allows source and dest to each have their own alignments
by using the alignment attribute on their arguments.  The alignment
argument itself is removed.

There are a few places in the code for which the code needs to be
checked by an expert as to whether using only src/dest alignment is
safe.  For those places, they currently take the minimum of src/dest
alignments which matches the current behaviour.

For example, code which used to read:
  call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* %dest, i8* %src, i32 500, i32 8, i1 false)
will now read:
  call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* align 8 %dest, i8* align 8 %src, i32 500, i1 false)

For out of tree owners, I was able to strip alignment from calls using sed by replacing:
  (call.*llvm\.memset.*)i32\ [0-9]*\,\ i1 false\)
with:
  $1i1 false)

and similarly for memmove and memcpy.

I then added back in alignment to test cases which needed it.

A similar commit will be made to clang which actually has many differences in alignment as now
IRBuilder can generate different source/dest alignments on calls.

In IRBuilder itself, a new argument was added.  Instead of calling:
  CreateMemCpy(Dst, Src, getInt64(Size), DstAlign, /* isVolatile */ false)
you now call
  CreateMemCpy(Dst, Src, getInt64(Size), DstAlign, SrcAlign, /* isVolatile */ false)

There is a temporary class (IntegerAlignment) which takes the source alignment and rejects
implicit conversion from bool.  This is to prevent isVolatile here from passing its default
parameter to the source alignment.

Note, changes in future can now be made to codegen.  I didn't change anything here, but this
change should enable better memcpy code sequences.
