Summary:
Un-revert https://reviews.llvm.org/D34868, but with a slight tweak to the
documentation to fix an error -- I had used the wrong syntax for a link.
llvm-svn: 306948
Summary:
Depends on https://reviews.llvm.org/D34867.
Add a Clang frontend option to enable optimization remark hotness
thresholds, which were added to LLVM in https://reviews.llvm.org/D34867.
This prevents diagnostics that do not meet a minimum hotness
threshold from being output. When generating optimization remarks for large
codebases with a ton of cold code paths, this option can be used
to limit the optimization remark output at a reasonable size.

Summary:
Prior to this change, using `-fdiagnostics-show-hotness` with a sampling
profile specified via `-fprofile-sample-use=` would result in the Clang
frontend emitting a warning: "argument '-fdiagnostics-show-hotness' requires
profile-guided optimization information". Of course, a sampling profile
*is* profile-guided optimization information, so the warning is misleading.
Furthermore, despite the warning, hotness was displayed based on the data in
the sampling profile.
Prevent the warning from being emitted when a sampling profile is used, and
add a test that verifies this.

Original commit message:
Add -fdiagnostics-show-hotness
Summary:
I've recently added the ability for optimization remarks to include the
hotness of the corresponding code region. This uses PGO and allows
filtering of the optimization remarks by relevance. The idea was first
discussed here:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.compilers.llvm.devel/98334
The general goal is to produce a YAML file with the remarks. Then, an
external tool could dynamically filter these by hotness and perhaps by
other things.
That said it makes sense to also expose this at the more basic level
where we just include the hotness info with each optimization remark.
For example, in D22694, the clang flag was pretty useful to measure the
overhead of the additional analyses required to include hotness.
(Without the flag we don't even run the analyses.)
For the record, Hal has already expressed support for the idea of this
patch on IRC.
