Currently the max alignment representable is 1GB, see D108661.
Setting the align of an object to 4GB is desirable in some cases to make sure the lower 32 bits are clear which can be used for some optimizations, e.g. https://crbug.com/1016945.
This uses an extra bit in instructions that carry an alignment. We can store 15 bits of "free" information, and with this change some instructions (e.g. AtomicCmpXchgInst) use 14 bits.
We can increase the max alignment representable above 4GB (up to 2^62) since we're only using 33 of the 64 values, but I've just limited it to 4GB for now.
The one place we have to update the bitcode format is for the alloca instruction. It stores its alignment into 5 bits of a 32 bit bitfield. I've added another field which is 8 bits and should be future proof for a while. For backward compatibility, we check if the old field has a value and use that, otherwise use the new field.
Updating clang's max allowed alignment will come in a future patch.

In LLVM IR, `AlignmentBitfieldElementT` is 5-bit wide
But that means that the maximal alignment exponent is `(1<<5)-2`,
which is `30`, not `29`. And indeed, alignment of `1073741824`
roundtrips IR serialization-deserialization.
While this doesn't seem all that important, this doubles
the maximal supported alignment from 512MiB to 1GiB,
and there's actually one noticeable use-case for that;
On X86, the huge pages can have sizes of 2MiB and 1GiB (!).
So while this doesn't add support for truly huge alignments,
which i think we can easily-ish do if wanted, i think this adds
zero-cost support for a not-trivially-dismissable case.
I don't believe we need any upgrade infrastructure,
and since we don't explicitly record the IR version,
we don't need to bump one either.
As @craig.topper speculates in D108661#2963519,
this might be an artificial limit imposed by the original implementation
of the `getAlignment()` functions.

We should use AAValueSimplify for all value simplification, however

Since D86233 we have `mustprogress` which, in combination with
`readonly`, implies `willreturn`. The idea is that every side-effect
has to be modeled as a "write". Consequently, `readonly` means there
is no side-effect, and `mustprogress` guarantees that we cannot "loop"
forever without side-effect.

This is similar to D94106, but for the
isGuaranteedToTransferExecutionToSuccessor() helper. We should not
assume that readonly functions will return, as this is only true for
mustprogress functions (in which case we already infer willreturn).
As with the DCE change, for now continue assuming that readonly
intrinsics will return, as not all target intrinsics have been
annotated yet.

With the addition of the `willreturn` attribute, functions that may
not return (e.g. due to an infinite loop) are well defined, if they are
not marked as `willreturn`.
This patch updates `wouldInstructionBeTriviallyDead` to not consider
calls that may not return as dead.
This patch still provides an escape hatch for intrinsics, which are
still assumed as willreturn unconditionally. It will be removed once

D70365 allows us to make attributes default. This is a follow up to
actually make nosync, nofree and willreturn default. The approach we
chose, for now, is to opt-in to default attributes to avoid introducing
problems to target specific intrinsics. Intrinsics with default
attributes can be created using `DefaultAttrsIntrinsic` class.
Even though `noundef` IR attribute might be attached to non-void type values, AANoUndef is mistakenly identified for pointer type values only.

The "null-pointer-is-valid" attribute needs to be checked by many

properties.

We now use getPointerDereferenceableBytes to determine `nonnull` and
`dereferenceable` facts from the IR. We also use getPointerAlignment in
AAAlign for the same reason. The latter can interfere with callbacks so
we do restrict it to non-function-pointers for now.
Before we eagerly put dependences into the QueryMap as soon as we
encountered them (via `Attributor::getAAFor<>` or
`Attributor::recordDependence`). Now we will wait to see if the
dependence is useful, that is if the target is not already in a fixpoint
state at the end of the update. If so, there is no need to record the
dependence at all.
Due to the abstraction via `Attributor::updateAA` we will now also treat
the very first update (during attribute creation) as we do subsequent
updates.
Finally this resolves the problematic usage of QueriedNonFixAA.

The check if globals were accessed was not always working because two
bits are set for NO_GLOBAL_MEM. The new check works also if only on kind
of globals (internal/external) is accessed.
When the Attributor was created the test update scripts were not well
suited to deal with the challenges of IR attribute checking. This
partially improved.
Since then we also added three additional configurations that need
testing; in total we now have the following four:
{ TUNIT, CGSCC } x { old pass manager (OPM), new pass manager (NPM) }
Finally, the number of developers and tests grew rapidly (partially due
to the addition of ArgumentPromotion and IPConstantProp tests), which
resulted in tests only being run in some configurations, different
prefixes being used, and different "styles" of checks being used.
Due to the above reasons I believed we needed to take another look at
the test update scripts. While we started to use them, via UTC_ARGS:
--enable/disable, the other problems remained. To improve the testing
situation for *all* configurations, to simplify future updates to the
test, and to help identify subtle effects of future changes, we now use
the test update scripts for (almost) all Attributor tests.
An exhaustive prefix list minimizes the number of check lines and makes
it easy to identify and compare configurations.
Tests have been adjusted in the process but we tried to keep their
intend unchanged.

hence if the instruction was needed or could be deleted even if the
surrounding ones are live. This patches introduces this level of

When we follow uses, e.g., in AAMemoryBehavior or AANoCapture, we need
to make sure the value is a pointer before we ask for abstract
attributes only valid for pointers. This happens because we follow
pointers through calls that do not capture but may return the value.
Summary:
New `@test13` in `Attributor/align.ll` is the main motivation - `null` pointer
really does not limit our alignment knowledge, in fact it is fully aligned
since it has no bits set.
Here we don't special-case `null` pointer because it is somewhat controversial
to add one more place where we enforce that `null` pointer is zero,
but instead we do the more general thing of trying to perform constant-fold
of pointer constant to an integer, and perform alignment inferrment on that.

to UB.
Summary:
This patch moves the test cases related to Attributor to `Transforms/Attributor` folder.
We have used `Transforms/FunctionAttrs` as the primary folder for Attributor test but we need to change testing way now.
For the test cases which I think functionattrs doesn't infer anything something like (willreturn, nosync, value-simplify, h2s ..etc), I moved them with the command `git mv`.
For the test cases in which functoinattrs and attributor are tested, I copied the test to the folder and remove the check only used by functoinattrs.
