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
address label located. In order to keep these information in LLVM
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.

MemorySSAUpdater::getPreviousDefRecursive is a recursive algorithm, for
each block, it computes the previous definition for each predecessor,
then takes those definitions and combines them. But currently it doesn't
remember results which it already computed; this means it can visit the
same block multiple times, which adds up to exponential time overall.
To fix this, this patch adds a cache. If we computed the result for a
block already, we don't need to visit it again because we'll come up
with the same result. Well, unless we RAUW a MemoryPHI; in that case,
the TrackingVH will be updated automatically.
This matches the original source paper for this algorithm.
The testcase isn't really a test for the bug, but it adds coverage for
the case where tryRemoveTrivialPhi erases an existing PHI node. (It's
hard to write a good regression test for a performance issue.)

This patch implements Chandler's idea [0] for supporting languages that
require support for infinite loops with side effects, such as Rust, providing
part of a solution to bug 965 [1].
Specifically, it adds an `llvm.sideeffect()` intrinsic, which has no actual
effect, but which appears to optimization passes to have obscure side effects,
such that they don't optimize away loops containing it. It also teaches
several optimization passes to ignore this intrinsic, so that it doesn't
significantly impact optimization in most cases.
As discussed on llvm-dev [2], this patch is the first of two major parts.
The second part, to change LLVM's semantics to have defined behavior
on infinite loops by default, with a function attribute for opting into
potential-undefined-behavior, will be implemented and posted for review in
a separate patch.

Factor out the reachability such that multiple queries to find reachability of values are fast. This is based on finding
the ANTIC points
in the CFG which do not change during hoisting. The ANTIC points are basically the dominance-frontiers in the inverse
graph. So we introduce a data structure (CHI nodes)
to keep track of values flowing out of a basic block. We only do this for values with multiple occurrences in the
function as they are the potential hoistable candidates.
This patch allows us to hoist instructions to a basic block with >2 successors, as well as deal with infinite loops in a
trivial way.
Relevant test cases are added to show the functionality as well as regression fixes from PR32821.

Summary:
GVNHoist performs all the optimizations that MLSM does to loads, in a
more general way, and in a faster time bound (MLSM is N^3 in most
cases, N^4 in a few edge cases).
This disables the load portion.
Note that the way ld_hoist_st_sink.ll is written makes one think that
the loads should be moved to the while.preheader block, but
1. Neither MLSM nor GVNHoist do it (they both move them to identical places).
2. MLSM couldn't possibly do it anyway, as the while.preheader block
is not the head of the diamond, while.body is. (GVNHoist could do it
if it was legal).
3. At a glance, it's not legal anyway because the in-loop load
conflict with the in-loop store, so the loads must stay in-loop.
I am happy to update the test to use update_test_checks so that
checking is tighter, just was going to do it as a followup.
Note that i can find no particular benefit to the store portion on any
real testcase/benchmark i have (even size-wise). If we really still
want it, i am happy to commit to writing a targeted store sinker, just
taking the code from the MemorySSA port of MergedLoadStoreMotion
(which is N^2 worst case, and N most of the time).
We can do what it does in a much better time bound.
We also should be both hoisting and sinking stores, not just sinking
them, anyway, since whether we should hoist or sink to merge depends
basically on luck of the draw of where the blockers are placed.
Nonetheless, i have left it alone for now.

Summary:
Move GVNHoist to later in the optimization pipeline, specifically, to
the function simplification part of the pipeline. The new pipeline
location allows GVNHoist to run on a function after its callees have
been inlined but before the function has been considered for inlining
into its callers, exposing more opportunities for hoisting.

This is a refreshed version of a patch that was reverted: it fixes
the problems reported in both PR30216 and PR30499, and
contains all the test-cases from both bugs.
To hoist stores past loads, we used to search for potential
conflicting loads on the hoisting path by following a MemorySSA
def-def link from the store to be hoisted to the previous
defining memory access, and from there we followed the def-use
chains to all the uses that occur on the hoisting path. The
problem is that the def-def link may point to a store that does
not alias with the store to be hoisted, and so the loads that are
walked may not alias with the store to be hoisted, and even as in
the testcase of PR30216, the loads that may alias with the store
to be hoisted are not visited.
The current patch visits all loads on the path from the store to
be hoisted to the hoisting position and uses the alias analysis
to ask whether the store may alias the load. I was not able to
use the MemorySSA functionality to ask for whether load and
store are clobbered: I'm not sure which function to call, so I
used a call to AA->isNoAlias().
Store past store is still working as before using a MemorySSA
query: I added an extra test to pr30216.ll to make sure store
past store does not regress.
Tested on x86_64-linux with check and a test-suite run.

Without this patch, GVN-hoist would think that a branch instruction is a scalar instruction
and would try to value number it. The patch filters out all such kind of irrelevant instructions.
A bit frustrating is that there is no easy way to discard all those very infrequent instructions,
a bit like isa<TerminatorInst> that stands for a large family of instructions. I'm thinking that
checking for those very infrequent other instructions would cost us more in compilation time
than just letting those instructions getting numbered, so I'm still thinking that a simpler check:
if (isa<TerminatorInst>(I))
return false;
is better than listing all the other less frequent instructions.

It is invalid to hoist stores or loads if they are not executed on all paths
from the hoisting point to the exit of the function. In the testcase, there are
paths in the loop that do not execute the stores or the loads, and so hoisting
them within the loop is unsafe.
The problem is that the current implementation of hoistingFromAllPaths is
incomplete: it walks all blocks dominated by the hoisting point, and does not
return false when the loop contains a path on which the hoisted ld/st is
not executed.
