Major steps include:
1). introduces a not-addr-taken bit-field in GlobalVariable
2). GlobalOpt pass sets "not-address-taken" if it proves a global varirable
dosen't have its address taken.
3). AA use this info for disambiguation.

When a linkonce_odr value that is on the dso list is not unnamed_addr
we can still look to see if anything is actually using its address. If
not, it is safe to hide it.
This patch implements that by moving GlobalStatus to Transforms/Utils
and using it in Internalize.
llvm-svn: 193090
This makes using array_pod_sort significantly safer. The implementation relies
on function pointer casting but that should be safe as we're dealing with void*
here.

LLVM IR doesn't currently allow atomic bool load/store operations, and the
transformation is dubious anyway because it isn't profitable on all platforms.

This reverts commit r189886.
I found a corner case where this optimization is not valid:
Say we have a "linkonce_odr unnamed_addr" in two translation units:
* In TU 1 this optimization kicks in and makes it hidden.
* In TU 2 it gets const merged with a constant that is *not* unnamed_addr,
resulting in a non unnamed_addr constant with default visibility.
* The static linker rules for combining visibility them produce a hidden
symbol, which is incorrect from the point of view of the non unnamed_addr
constant.
The one place we can do this is when we know that the symbol is not used from
another TU in the same shared object, i.e., during LTO. I will move it there.
llvm-svn: 189954
Original message:
If a constant or a function has linkonce_odr linkage and unnamed_addr, mark
hidden. Being linkonce_odr guarantees that it is available in every dso that
needs it. Being a constant/function with unnamed_addr guarantees that the
copies don't have to be merged.

The language reference says that:
"If a symbol appears in the @llvm.used list, then the compiler,
assembler, and linker are required to treat the symbol as if there is
a reference to the symbol that it cannot see"
Since even the linker cannot see the reference, we must assume that
the reference can be using the symbol table. For example, a user can add
__attribute__((used)) to a debug helper function like dump and use it from
a debugger.

GlobalOpt simplifies llvm.compiler.used by removing any members that are also
in the more strict llvm.used. Handle the special case where llvm.compiler.used
becomes empty.
llvm-svn: 186778
We were incorrectly using compiler_used instead of compiler.used. Unfortunately
the passes using the broken name had tests also using the broken name.
llvm-svn: 186705
Instead of a custom implementation of replaceAllUsesWith, we just call
replaceAllUsesWith and recreate llvm.used and llvm.compiler-used.
This change is particularity interesting because it makes llvm see
through what clang is doing with static used functions in extern "C"
contexts. With this change, running clang -O2 in
extern "C" {
__attribute__((used)) static void foo() {}
}
produces
@llvm.used = appending global [1 x i8*] [i8* bitcast (void ()* @foo to
i8*)], section "llvm.metadata"
define internal void @foo() #0 {
entry:
ret void
}

CXAAtExitFn was set outside a loop and before optimizations where functions
can be deleted. This patch will set CXAAtExitFn inside the loop and after
optimizations.
Seg fault when running LTO because of accesses to a deleted function.

The iterator could be invalidated when it's recursively deleting a whole bunch
of constant expressions in a constant initializer.
Note: This was only reproducible if `opt' was run on a `.bc' file. If `opt' was
run on a `.ll' file, it wouldn't crash. This is why the test first pushes the
`.ll' file through `llvm-as' before feeding it to `opt'.

It's possible (e.g. after an LTO build) that an internal global may be used for
debugging purposes. If that's the case appending a '.b' to it makes it hard to
find that variable. Steal the name from the old GV before deleting it so that
they can find that variable again.

The 'getSlot' function and its ilk allow introspection into the AttributeSet
class. However, that class should be opaque. Allow access through accessor
methods instead.
llvm-svn: 173522
Specifically:
1. Added a missing new line when we emit a debug message saying that we are marking a global variable as constant.
2. Added debug messages that describe what is occuring when GlobalOpt is evaluating a block/function.
3. Added a debug message that says what specific constructor is being evaluated.

into their new header subdirectory: include/llvm/IR. This matches the
directory structure of lib, and begins to correct a long standing point
of file layout clutter in LLVM.
There are still more header files to move here, but I wanted to handle
them in separate commits to make tracking what files make sense at each
layer easier.
The only really questionable files here are the target intrinsic
tablegen files. But that's a battle I'd rather not fight today.
I've updated both CMake and Makefile build systems (I think, and my
tests think, but I may have missed something).
I've also re-sorted the includes throughout the project. I'll be
committing updates to Clang, DragonEgg, and Polly momentarily.
llvm-svn: 171366
Sooooo many of these had incorrect or strange main module includes.
I have manually inspected all of these, and fixed the main module
include to be the nearest plausible thing I could find. If you own or
care about any of these source files, I encourage you to take some time
and check that these edits were sensible. I can't have broken anything
(I strictly added headers, and reordered them, never removed), but they
may not be the headers you'd really like to identify as containing the
API being implemented.
Many forward declarations and missing includes were added to a header
files to allow them to parse cleanly when included first. The main
module rule does in fact have its merits. =]

Also check in a case to repeat the issue, on which 'opt -globalopt' consumes 1.6GB memory.
The big memory footprint cause is that current GlobalOpt one by one hoists and stores the leaf element constant into the global array, in each iteration, it recreates the global array initializer constant and leave the old initializer alone. This may result in many obsolete constants left.
For example: we have global array @rom = global [16 x i32] zeroinitializer
After the first element value is hoisted and installed: @rom = global [16 x i32] [ 1, 0, 0, ... ]
After the second element value is installed: @rom = global [16 x 32] [ 1, 2, 0, 0, ... ] // here the previous initializer is obsolete
...
When the transform is done, we have 15 obsolete initializers left useless.
llvm-svn: 169079
For global variables that get the same value stored into them
everywhere, GlobalOpt will replace them with a constant. The problem is
that a thread-local GlobalVariable looks like one value (the address of
the TLS var), but is different between threads.
This patch introduces Constant::isThreadDependent() which returns true
for thread-local variables and constants which depend on them (e.g. a GEP
into a thread-local array), and teaches GlobalOpt not to track such
values.

getIntPtrType support for multiple address spaces via a pointer type,
and also introduced a crasher bug in the constant folder reported in
PR14233.
These commits also contained several problems that should really be
addressed before they are re-committed. I have avoided reverting various
cleanups to the DataLayout APIs that are reasonable to have moving
forward in order to reduce the amount of churn, and minimize the number
of commits that were reverted. I've also manually updated merge
conflicts and manually arranged for the getIntPtrType function to stay
in DataLayout and to be defined in a plausible way after this revert.
Thanks to Duncan for working through this exact strategy with me, and
Nick Lewycky for tracking down the really annoying crasher this
triggered. (Test case to follow in its own commit.)
After discussing with Duncan extensively, and based on a note from
Micah, I'm going to continue to back out some more of the more
problematic patches in this series in order to ensure we go into the
LLVM 3.2 branch with a reasonable story here. I'll send a note to
llvmdev explaining what's going on and why.
Summary of reverted revisions:
r166634: Fix a compiler warning with an unused variable.
r166607: Add some cleanup to the DataLayout changes requested by
Chandler.
r166596: Revert "Back out r166591, not sure why this made it through
since I cancelled the command. Bleh, sorry about this!
r166591: Delete a directory that wasn't supposed to be checked in yet.
r166578: Add in support for getIntPtrType to get the pointer type based
on the address space.

Convert the internal representation of the Attributes class into a pointer to an
opaque object that's uniqued by and stored in the LLVMContext object. The
Attributes class then becomes a thin wrapper around this opaque
object. Eventually, the internal representation will be expanded to include
attributes that represent code generation options, etc.
