This patch moves the selection of the style used to emit the numbers
(DW_OP_implicit_value vs. DW_OP_const+DW_OP_stack_value) into
DwarfExpression::addUnsignedConstant. This logic is not FP-specific, and
it will be needed for large integers too.
The refactor also makes DW_OP_implicit_value (DW_OP_stack_value worked
already) be used for floating point constants other than float and
double, so I've added a _Float16 test for it.

And another step towards transformss not introducing inttoptr and/or
ptrtoint casts that weren't there already.
In this case, when load/store uses have conflicting types,
instead of falling back to the iN, we can try to use allocated sub-type.
As disscussed, this isn't the best idea overall (we shouldn't rely on
allocated type), but it works fine as a temporary measure.
I've measured, and @ `-O3` as of vanilla llvm test-suite + RawSpeed,
this results in +0.05% more bitcasts, -5.51% less inttoptr
and -1.05% less ptrtoint (at the end of middle-end opt pipeline)

This rewrites big parts of the fast register allocator. The basic
strategy of doing block-local allocation hasn't changed but I tweaked
several details:
Track register state on register units instead of physical
registers. This simplifies and speeds up handling of register aliases.
Process basic blocks in reverse order: Definitions are known to end
register livetimes when walking backwards (contrary when walking
forward then uses may or may not be a kill so we need heuristics).
Check register mask operands (calls) instead of conservatively
assuming everything is clobbered. Enhance heuristics to detect
killing uses: In case of a small number of defs/uses check if they are
all in the same basic block and if so the last one is a killing use.
Enhance heuristic for copy-coalescing through hinting: We check the
first k defs of a register for COPYs rather than relying on there just
being a single definition. When testing this on the full llvm
test-suite including SPEC externals I measured:
average 5.1% reduction in code size for X86, 4.9% reduction in code on
aarch64. (ranging between 0% and 20% depending on the test) 0.5%
faster compiletime (some analysis suggests the pass is slightly slower
than before, but we more than make up for it because later passes are
faster with the reduced instruction count)
Also adds a few testcases that were broken without this patch, in
particular bug 47278.

Summary:
This patch reduces file size in debug builds by dropping variable locations a
debugger user will not see.
After building the debug entity history map we loop through it. For each
variable we look at each entry. If the entry opens a location range which does
not intersect any of the variable's scope's ranges then we mark it for removal.
After visiting the entries for each variable we also mark any clobbering
entries which will no longer be referenced for removal, and then finally erase
the marked entries. This all requires the ability to query the order of
instructions, so before this runs we number them.
Tests:
Added llvm/test/DebugInfo/X86/trim-var-locs.mir
Modified llvm/test/DebugInfo/COFF/register-variables.ll
Branch folding merges the tails of if.then and if.else into if.else. Each
blocks' debug-locations point to different scopes so when they're merged we
can't use either. Because of this the variable 'c' ends up with a location
range which doesn't cover any instructions in its scope; with the patch
applied the location range is dropped and its flag changes to IsOptimizedOut.
Modified llvm/test/DebugInfo/X86/live-debug-variables.ll
Modified llvm/test/DebugInfo/ARM/PR26163.ll
In both tests an out of scope location is now removed. The remaining location
covers the entire scope of the variable allowing us to emit it as a single
location.

Summary:
As discussed in D70081, this adds the ability to dump section

The trickiest part of this patch is the backflip in the meanings of the
two dump flags for the location list sections.
The dumping of "raw" location list data is now controlled by
"DisplayRawContents" flag. This frees up the "Verbose" flag to be used
to control whether we print the section index. Additionally, the
DisplayRawContents flag is set for section-based dumps whenever the
--verbose option is passed, but this is not done for the "inline" dumps.
Also note that the index dumping currently does not work for the DWARF
v5 location lists, as the parser does not fill out the appropriate
fields. This will be done in a separate patch.

Summary:
Internally in LLVM's metadata we use DW_OP_entry_value operations with
the same semantics as DWARF; that is, its operand specifies the number
of bytes that the entry value covers.
At the time of emitting entry values we don't know the emitted size of
the DWARF expression that the entry value will cover. Currently the size
is hardcoded to 1 in DIExpression, and other values causes the verifier
to fail. As the size is 1, that effectively means that we can only have
valid entry values for registers that can be encoded in one byte, which
are the registers with DWARF numbers 0 to 31 (as they can be encoded as
single-byte DW_OP_reg0..DW_OP_reg31 rather than a multi-byte
DW_OP_regx). It is a bit confusing, but it seems like llvm-dwarfdump
will print an operation "correctly", even if the byte size is less than
that, which may make it seem that we emit correct DWARF for registers
with DWARF numbers > 31. If you instead use readelf for such cases, it
will interpret the number of specified bytes as a DWARF expression. This
seems like a limitation in llvm-dwarfdump.
As suggested in D66746, a way forward would be to add an internal
variant of DW_OP_entry_value, DW_OP_LLVM_entry_value, whose operand
instead specifies the number of operations that the entry value covers,
and we then translate that into the byte size at the time of emission.
In this patch that internal operation is added. This patch keeps the
limitation that a entry value can only be applied to simple register
locations, but it will fix the issue with the size operand being
incorrect for DWARF numbers > 31.

This patch kills off a significant user of the "IsIndirect" field of
DBG_VALUE machine insts. Brought up in in PR41675, IsIndirect is
techncally redundant as it can be expressed by the DIExpression of a
DBG_VALUE inst, and it isn't helpful to have two ways of expressing
things.
Rather than setting IsIndirect, have DBG_VALUE creators add an extra deref
to the insts DIExpression. There should now be no appearences of
IsIndirect=True from isel down to LiveDebugVariables / VirtRegRewriter,
which is ensured by an assertion in LDVImpl::handleDebugValue. This means
we also get to delete the IsIndirect handling in LiveDebugVariables. Tests
can be upgraded by for example swapping the following IsIndirect=True
DBG_VALUE:
DBG_VALUE $somereg, 0, !123, !DIExpression(DW_OP_foo)
With one where the indirection is in the DIExpression, by _appending_
a deref:
DBG_VALUE $somereg, $noreg, !123, !DIExpression(DW_OP_foo, DW_OP_deref)
Which both mean the same thing.
Most of the test changes in this patch are updates of that form; also some
changes in how the textual assembly printer handles these insts.

This patch makes the LiveDebugValues pass consider fragments when propagating
DBG_VALUE insts between blocks, fixing PR41979. Fragment info for a variable
location is added to the open-ranges key, which allows distinct fragments to be
tracked separately. To handle overlapping fragments things become slightly
funkier. To avoid excessive searching for overlaps in the data-flow part of
LiveDebugValues, this patch:
* Pre-computes pairings of fragments that overlap, for each DILocalVariable
* During data-flow, whenever something happens that causes an open range to
be terminated (via erase), any fragments pre-determined to overlap are
also terminated.
The effect of which is that when encountering a DBG_VALUE fragment that
overlaps others, the overlapped fragments do not get propagated to other
blocks. We still rely on later location-list building to correctly handle
overlapping fragments within blocks.
It's unclear whether a mixture of DBG_VALUEs with and without fragmented
expressions are legitimate. To avoid suprises, this patch interprets a
DBG_VALUE with no fragment as overlapping any DBG_VALUE _with_ a fragment.

llvm-svn: 363256
Summary:
Currently the DbgValueHistorymap only keeps track of clobbered registers
for the last debug value that it has encountered. This could lead to
preceding register-described debug values living on longer in the
location lists than they should. See PR40283 for an example. This
patch does not introduce tracking of multiple registers, but changes
the DbgValueHistoryMap structure to allow for that in a follow-up
patch. This patch is not NFC, as it at least fixes two bugs in
DwarfDebug (both are covered in the new clobbered-fragments.mir test):
* If a debug value was clobbered (its End pointer set), the value would
still be added to OpenRanges, meaning that the succeeding location list
entries could potentially contain stale values.
* If a debug value was clobbered, and there were non-overlapping
fragments that were still live after the clobbering, DwarfDebug would
not create a location list entry starting directly after the
clobbering instruction. This meant that the location list could have
a gap until the next debug value for the variable was encountered.
Before this patch, the history map was represented by <Begin, End>
pairs, where a new pair was created for each new debug value. When
dealing with partially overlapping register-described debug values, such
as in the following example:
DBG_VALUE $reg2, $noreg, !1, !DIExpression(DW_OP_LLVM_fragment, 32, 32)
[...]
DBG_VALUE $reg3, $noreg, !1, !DIExpression(DW_OP_LLVM_fragment, 64, 32)
[...]
$reg2 = insn1
[...]
$reg3 = insn2
the history map would then contain the entries `[<DV1, insn1>, [<DV2, insn2>]`.
This would leave it up to the users of the map to be aware of
the relative order of the instructions, which e.g. could make
DwarfDebug::buildLocationList() needlessly complex. Instead, this patch
makes the history map structure monotonically increasing by dropping the
End pointer, and replacing that with explicit clobbering entries in the
vector. Each debug value has an "end index", which if set, points to the
entry in the vector that ends the debug value. The ending entry can
either be an overlapping debug value, or an instruction which clobbers
the register that the debug value is described by. The ending entry's
instruction can thus either be excluded or included in the debug value's
range. If the end index is not set, the debug value that the entry
introduces is valid until the end of the function.
Changes to test cases:
* DebugInfo/X86/pieces-3.ll: The range of the first DBG_VALUE, which
describes that the fragment (0, 64) is located in RDI, was
incorrectly ended by the clobbering of RAX, which the second
(non-overlapping) DBG_VALUE was described by. With this patch we
get a second entry that only describes RDI after that clobbering.
* DebugInfo/ARM/partial-subreg.ll: This test seems to indiciate a bug
in LiveDebugValues that is caused by it not being aware of fragments.
I have added some comments in the test case about that. Also, before
this patch DwarfDebug would incorrectly include a register-described
debug value from a preceding block in a location list entry.

Summary:
This is a follow-up to D57510. This patch stops DebugHandlerBase from
changing the starting label for the first non-overlapping,
register-described parameter DBG_VALUEs to the beginning of the
function. That code did not consider what defined the registers, which
could result in the ranges for the debug values starting before their
defining instructions. We currently do not emit debug values for
constant values directly at the start of the function, so this code is
still useful for such values, but my intention is to remove the code
from DebugHandlerBase completely when we get there. One reason for
removing it is that the code violates the history map's ranges, which I
think can make it quite confusing when troubleshooting.
In D57510, PrologEpilogInserter was amended so that parameter DBG_VALUEs
now are kept at the start of the entry block, even after emission of
prologue code. That was done to reduce the degradation of debug
completeness from this patch. PR40638 is another example, where the
lexical-scope trimming that LDV does, in combination with scheduling,
results in instructions after the prologue being left without locations.
There might be other cases where the DBG_VALUEs are pushed further down,
for which the DebugHandlerBase code may be helpful, but as it now quite
often result in incorrect locations, even after the prologue, it seems
better to remove that code, and try to work our way up with accurate
locations.
In the long run we should maybe not aim to provide accurate locations
inside the prologue. Some single location descriptions, at least those
referring to stack values, generate inaccurate values inside the
epilogue, so we maybe should not aim to achieve accuracy for location
lists. However, it seems that we now emit line number programs that can
result in GDB and LLDB stopping inside the prologue when doing line
number stepping into functions. See PR40188 for more information.
A summary of some of the changed test cases is available in PR40188#c2.

This fixes PR39710. In that case we emitted a location list looking like
this:

.quad .Lfunc_begin0-.Lfunc_begin0
.short 1 # Loc expr size
.byte 85 # DW_OP_reg5

.quad .Lfunc_end0-.Lfunc_begin0
.short 1 # Loc expr size
.byte 85 # super-register DW_OP_reg5
.quad 0
.quad 0
As seen, the first entry's beginning and ending addresses evalute to 0,
which meant that the entry inadvertently became an "end of list" entry,
resulting in the location list ending sooner than expected.
To fix this, omit all entries with empty ranges. Location list entries
with empty ranges do not have any effect, as specified by DWARF, so we
might as well drop them:
"A location list entry (but not a base address selection or end of list
entry) whose beginning and ending addresses are equal has no effect
because the size of the range covered by such an entry is zero."

Context: Compiler generated instructions do not have a debug location
assigned to them. However emitting 0-line records for all of them bloats
the line tables for very little benefit so we usually avoid doing that.
Not emitting anything will lead to the previous debug location getting
applied to the locationless instructions. This is not desirable for
block begin and after labels. Previously we would emit simply emit
line-0 records in this case, this patch changes the behavior to do a
forward search for a debug location in these cases before emitting a
line-0 record to further reduce line table bloat.

In order to set breakpoints on labels and list source code around
labels, we need collect debug information for labels, i.e., label
name, the function label belong, line number in the file, and the

IR and to allow backend to generate debug information correctly.
We create a new kind of metadata for labels, DILabel. The format
of DILabel is
!DILabel(scope: !1, name: "foo", file: !2, line: 3)
We hope to keep debug information as much as possible even the
code is optimized. So, we create a new kind of intrinsic for label
metadata to avoid the metadata is eliminated with basic block.
The intrinsic will keep existing if we keep it from optimized out.
The format of the intrinsic is
llvm.dbg.label(metadata !1)
It has only one argument, that is the DILabel metadata. The
intrinsic will follow the label immediately. Backend could get the
label metadata through the intrinsic's parameter.
We also create DIBuilder API for labels to be used by Frontend.
Frontend could use createLabel() to allocate DILabel objects, and use
insertLabel() to insert llvm.dbg.label intrinsic in LLVM IR.
