I'm recommiting the codegen part of the patch.
The vectorizer part will be send to review again.
Masked Vector Load and Store Intrinsics.
Introduced new target-independent intrinsics in order to support masked vector loads and stores. The loop vectorizer optimizes loops containing conditional memory accesses by generating these intrinsics for existing targets AVX2 and AVX-512. The vectorizer asks the target about availability of masked vector loads and stores.
Added SDNodes for masked operations and lowering patterns for X86 code generator.
Examples:
<16 x i32> @llvm.masked.load.v16i32(i8* %addr, <16 x i32> %passthru, i32 4 /* align */, <16 x i1> %mask)
declare void @llvm.masked.store.v8f64(i8* %addr, <8 x double> %value, i32 4, <8 x i1> %mask)
Scalarizer for other targets (not AVX2/AVX-512) will be done in a separate patch.

Patch by Ben Gamari!
This redefines the `prefix` attribute introduced previously and
introduces a `prologue` attribute. There are a two primary usecases
that these attributes aim to serve,
1. Function prologue sigils
2. Function hot-patching: Enable the user to insert `nop` operations
at the beginning of the function which can later be safely replaced
with a call to some instrumentation facility
3. Runtime metadata: Allow a compiler to insert data for use by the
runtime during execution. GHC is one example of a compiler that
needs this functionality for its tables-next-to-code functionality.
Previously `prefix` served cases (1) and (2) quite well by allowing the user
to introduce arbitrary data at the entrypoint but before the function
body. Case (3), however, was poorly handled by this approach as it
required that prefix data was valid executable code.
Here we redefine the notion of prefix data to instead be data which
occurs immediately before the function entrypoint (i.e. the symbol
address). Since prefix data now occurs before the function entrypoint,
there is no need for the data to be valid code.
The previous notion of prefix data now goes under the name "prologue
data" to emphasize its duality with the function epilogue.
The intention here is to handle cases (1) and (2) with prologue data and
case (3) with prefix data.

This idea arose out of discussions[1] with Reid Kleckner in response to a
proposal to introduce the notion of symbol offsets to enable handling of
case (3).

Currently, we have a type parameter mechanism for intrinsics. Rather than having to specify a separate intrinsic for each combination of argument and return types, we can specify a single intrinsic with one or more type parameters. These type parameters are passed explicitly to Intrinsic::getDeclaration or can be specified implicitly in the naming of the intrinsic function in an LL file.
Today, the types are limited to integer, floating point, and pointer types. With a goal of supporting symbolic targets for patchpoints and statepoints, this change adds support for function types. The change also includes support for first class aggregate types (named structures and arrays) since these appear in function types we've encountered.

To do this, change the representation of lazy loaded functions.
The previous representation cannot differentiate between a function whose body
has been removed and one whose body hasn't been read from the .bc file. That
means that in order to drop a function, the entire body had to be read.

VarArg Intrinsic functions are encoded with "void" type as the last

This attribute indicates that the parameter or return pointer is
dereferenceable. Practically speaking, loads from such a pointer within the
associated byte range are safe to speculatively execute. Such pointer
parameters are common in source languages (C++ references, for example).

Add MSBuiltin which is similar in vein to GCCBuiltin. This allows for adding
intrinsics for Microsoft compatibility to individual instructions. This is
needed to permit the creation of ARM specific MSVC extensions.
This is not currently in use, and requires an associated change in clang to
enable use of the intrinsics defined by this new class. This merely sets the
LLVM portion of the infrastructure in place to permit the use of this
functionality. A separate set of changes will enable the new intrinsics.

This allows code to statically accept a Function or a GlobalVariable, but
not an alias. This is already a cleanup by itself IMHO, but the main
reason for it is that it gives a lot more confidence that the refactoring to fix
the design of GlobalAlias is correct. That will be a followup patch.

MSVC always places the implicit sret parameter after the implicit this
parameter of instance methods. We used to handle this for
x86_thiscallcc by allocating the sret parameter on the stack and leaving
the this pointer in ecx, but that doesn't handle alternative calling
conventions like cdecl, stdcall, fastcall, or the win64 convention.
Instead, change the verifier to allow sret on the second parameter.
This also requires changing the Mips and X86 backends to return the
argument with the sret parameter, instead of assuming that the sret
parameter comes first.
The Sparc backend also returns sret parameters in a register, but I
wasn't able to update it to handle secondary sret parameters. It
currently calls report_fatal_error if you feed it an sret in the second
parameter.

This is like the LLVMMatchType, except the verifier checks that the
second argument is a vector with the same base type and half the
number of elements.
This will be used by the ARM64 backend.
llvm-svn: 205079
These are used in the ARM backends to aid type-checking on patterns involving
intrinsics. By making sure one argument is an extended/truncated version of
another.
However, there's no reason to limit them to just vectors types. For example
AArch64 has the instruction "uqshrn sD, dN, #imm" which would naturally use an
intrinsic taking an i64 and returning an i32.

optimize a call to a llvm intrinsic to something that invovles a call to a C
library call, make sure it sets the right calling convention on the call.
e.g.
extern double pow(double, double);
double t(double x) {
return pow(10, x);
}
Compiles to something like this for AAPCS-VFP:
define arm_aapcs_vfpcc double @t(double %x) #0 {
entry:
%0 = call double @llvm.pow.f64(double 1.000000e+01, double %x)
ret double %0
}
declare double @llvm.pow.f64(double, double) #1
Simplify libcall (part of instcombine) will turn the above into:
define arm_aapcs_vfpcc double @t(double %x) #0 {
entry:
%__exp10 = call double @__exp10(double %x) #1
ret double %__exp10
}
declare double @__exp10(double)
The pre-instcombine code works because calls to LLVM builtins are special.
Instruction selection will chose the right calling convention for the call.
However, the code after instcombine is wrong. The call to __exp10 will use
the C calling convention.
I can think of 3 options to fix this.
1. Make "C" calling convention just work since the target should know what CC
is being used.
This doesn't work because each function can use different CC with the "pcs"
attribute.
2. Have Clang add the right CC keyword on the calls to LLVM builtin.
This will work but it doesn't match the LLVM IR specification which states
these are "Standard C Library Intrinsics".
3. Fix simplify libcall so the resulting calls to the C routines will have the
proper CC keyword. e.g.
%__exp10 = call arm_aapcs_vfpcc double @__exp10(double %x) #1
This works and is the solution I implemented here.
Both solutions #2 and #3 would work. After carefully considering the pros and
cons, I decided to implement #3 for the following reasons.
1. It doesn't change the "spec" of the intrinsics.
2. It's a self-contained fix.
There are a couple of potential downsides.
1. There could be other places in the optimizer that is broken in the same way
that's not addressed by this.
2. There could be other calling conventions that need to be propagated by
simplify-libcall that's not handled.
But for now, this is the fix that I'm most comfortable with.

This requires a number of steps.
1) Move value_use_iterator into the Value class as an implementation
detail
2) Change it to actually be a *Use* iterator rather than a *User*
iterator.
3) Add an adaptor which is a User iterator that always looks through the
Use to the User.
4) Wrap these in Value::use_iterator and Value::user_iterator typedefs.
5) Add the range adaptors as Value::uses() and Value::users().
6) Update *all* of the callers to correctly distinguish between whether
they wanted a use_iterator (and to explicitly dig out the User when
needed), or a user_iterator which makes the Use itself totally
opaque.
Because #6 requires churning essentially everything that walked the
Use-Def chains, I went ahead and added all of the range adaptors and
switched them to range-based loops where appropriate. Also because the
renaming requires at least churning every line of code, it didn't make
any sense to split these up into multiple commits -- all of which would
touch all of the same lies of code.
The result is still not quite optimal. The Value::use_iterator is a nice
regular iterator, but Value::user_iterator is an iterator over User*s
rather than over the User objects themselves. As a consequence, it fits
a bit awkwardly into the range-based world and it has the weird
extra-dereferencing 'operator->' that so many of our iterators have.
I think this could be fixed by providing something which transforms
a range of T&s into a range of T*s, but that *can* be separated into
another patch, and it isn't yet 100% clear whether this is the right
move.
However, this change gets us most of the benefit and cleans up
a substantial amount of code around Use and User. =]

source file had already been moved. Also move the unittest into the IR

Summary:
The only current use of this flag is to mark the alloca as dynamic, even
if its in the entry block. The stack adjustment for the alloca can
never be folded into the prologue because the call may clear it and it
has to be allocated at the top of the stack.

We need to ensure that StackSlotColoring.cpp does not reuse stack
spill slots in functions that call "returns_twice" functions such as
setjmp(), otherwise this can lead to miscompiled code, because a stack
slot would be clobbered when it's still live.
This was already handled correctly for functions that call setjmp()
(though this wasn't covered by a test), but not for functions that
invoke setjmp().
We fix this by changing callsFunctionThatReturnsTwice() to check for
invoke instructions.
This fixes PR18244.

The inalloca attribute is designed to support passing C++ objects by
value in the Microsoft C++ ABI. It behaves the same as byval, except
that it always implies that the argument is in memory and that the bytes
are never copied. This attribute allows the caller to take the address
of an outgoing argument's memory and execute arbitrary code to store
into it.
This patch adds basic IR support, docs, and verification. It does not
attempt to implement any lowering or fix any possibly broken transforms.
When this patch lands, a complete description of this feature should
appear at http://llvm.org/docs/InAlloca.html .

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.

Aside from moving the actual files, this patch only updates the build
system and the source file comments under lib/... that are relevant.
I'll be updating other docs and other files in smaller subsequnet
commits.
While I've tried to test this, but it is entirely possible that there
will still be some build system fallout.
Also, note that I've not changed the library name itself: libLLVMCore.a
is still the library name. I'd be interested in others' opinions about
whether we should rename this as well (I think we should, just not sure
what it might break)
