This enabled opaque pointers by default in LLVM. The effect of this
is twofold:
* If IR that contains *neither* explicit ptr nor %T* types is passed
to tools, we will now use opaque pointer mode, unless
-opaque-pointers=0 has been explicitly passed.
* Users of LLVM as a library will now default to opaque pointers.
It is possible to opt-out by calling setOpaquePointers(false) on
LLVMContext.
A cmake option to toggle this default will not be provided. Frontends
or other tools that want to (temporarily) keep using typed pointers
should disable opaque pointers via LLVMContext.

LTO code may end up mixing bitcode files from various sources varying in
their use of opaque pointer types. The current strategy to decide
between opaque / typed pointers upon the first bitcode file loaded does
not work here, since we could be loading a non-opaque bitcode file first
and would then be unable to load any files with opaque pointer types
later.
So for LTO this:
- Adds an `lto::Config::OpaquePointer` option and enforces an upfront
decision between the two modes.
- Adds `-opaque-pointers`/`-no-opaque-pointers` options to the gold
plugin; disabled by default.
- `--opaque-pointers`/`--no-opaque-pointers` options with
`-plugin-opt=-opaque-pointers`/`-plugin-opt=-no-opaque-pointers`
aliases to lld; disabled by default.
- Adds an `-lto-opaque-pointers` option to the `llvm-lto2` tool.
- Changes the clang driver to pass `-plugin-opt=-opaque-pointers` to
the linker in LTO modes when clang was configured with opaque
pointers enabled by default.

We don't allowing inlining for functions with blockaddress with uses other than strictly callbr. This is because if the blockaddress escapes the function via a global variable, inlining may lead to an invalid cross-function reference.
We check against such cases during inlining, however the check can fail for ThinLTO post-link because CFG simplification can incorrectly removes blocks based on wrong block reachability.
When we import a function with blockaddress taken in a global variable but without importing that variable, we won't go through value mapping to reflect the real address-taken-ness of the cloned blocks. For the imported clone, this leads to blocks reachable from indirect branch through global variable being incorrectly treated as unreachable and removed by SimplifyCFG.
Since inlining for such cases shouldn't be allowed in the first place, I'm marking them as ineligible for importing during pre-link to save the problem of missing address-taken-ness of imported clone as well as bad DCE and inlining.

Previously we reliedy on pseudo probe descriptors to look up precomputed GUID during probe emission for inlined probes. Since we are moving to always using unique linkage names, GUID for functions can be computed in place from dwarf names. This eliminates the need of importing pseudo probe descs in thinlto, since those descs should be emitted by the original modules.
This significantly reduces thinlto memory footprint in some extreme case where the number of imported modules for a single module is massive.

This restores commit ab1b4810b5 which was
reverted in 01b9deba76, with a fix for the
issue it caused. We should use a temporary BitstreamCursor when
loading the global decl attachment records so that the abbrev ids held
in the lazy loading IndexCursor are not clobbered. Enhanced the test so
that the issue is exposed there.
Original description:
When performing ThinLTO importing, the metadata loader attempts to lazy
load, by building an index. However, module level global decl attachment
metadata was being parsed early while building the index, since the
associated (module level) global values aren't materialized on demand.
This results in the creation of forward reference temporary metadatas,
which are expensive.
Normally, these module level global values don't have much attached
metadata. However, in the case of -fwhole-program-vtables (e.g. for
whole program devirtualization), the vtables may have many attached type
metadatas. This was resulting in very slow performance when performing
ThinLTO importing with the default lazy loading.
This patch restructures the handling of these global decl attachment
records, delaying their parsing until after the lazy loading index has
been built. Then the parser can use the interface that loads from the
index, which resolves forward references immediately instead of creating
expensive temporaries.
For one ThinLTO backend that imports from modules containing huge
numbers of vtables and associated types, I measured the following
compile times for the metadata materialization during function
importing, rounded to nearest second:
No -fwhole-program-vtables:
Lazy loading on (head): 1s
Lazy loading off (head): 3s
Lazy loading on (patch): 1s
With -fwhole-program-vtables:
Lazy loading on (head): 440s
Lazy loading off (head): 4s
Lazy loading on (patch): 2s

For ThinLTO importing we don't need to import all the fields of the DICompileUnit, such as enums, macros, retained types lists. The importation of those fields were previously disabled by setting their value map entries to nullptr. Unfortunately a metadata node can be shared by multiple metadata operands. Setting the map entry to nullptr might result in not importing other metadata unexpectedly. The issue is fixed by explicitly setting the original DICompileUnit fields (still a copy of the source module metadata) to null.

dso_local leads to direct access even if the definition is not within this compilation unit (it is
still in the same linkage unit). On ELF, such a relocation (e.g. R_X86_64_PC32) referencing a
STB_GLOBAL STV_DEFAULT object can cause a linker error in a -shared link.
If the linkage is changed to available_externally, the dso_local flag should be dropped, so that no
direct access will be generated.
The current behavior is benign, because -fpic does not assume dso_local
(clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenModule.cpp:shouldAssumeDSOLocal).
If we do that for -fno-semantic-interposition (D73865), there will be an

Summary:
Ensure that we can internalize values produced from two rounds of
promotion.
Note that this cannot happen currently via clang, but in other use cases
such as the Rust compiler which does a first round of ThinLTO on library
code, producing bitcode, and a second round on the final binary.
In particular this can happen if a function is exported and promoted,
ending up with a ".llvm.${hash}" suffix, and then goes through a round
of optimization creating an internal switch table expansion variable
that is internal and contains the promoted name of the enclosing
function. This variable will be promoted in the second round of ThinLTO
if @foo is imported again, and therefore ends up with two
".llvm.${hash}" suffixes. Only the final one should be stripped when
consulting the index to locate the summary.

Also add handling for same-named local vtables with the same GUID
because of same-named files without enough distinguishing path.
In that case we return a conservative result with no devirtualization.

Summary:
Keep aliasees alive if their alias is live, otherwise we end up with an
alias to a declaration, which is invalid. This can happen when the
aliasee is weak and non-prevailing.
This fix exposed the fact that we were then attempting to internalize
the weak symbol, which was not exported as it was not prevailing. We
should not internalize interposable symbols in general, unless this is
the prevailing copy, since it can lead to incorrect inlining and other
optimizations. Most of the changes in this patch are due to the
restructuring required to pass down the prevailing callback.
Finally, while implementing the test cases, I found that in the case of
a weak aliasee that is still marked not live because its alias isn't
live, after dropping the definition we incorrectly marked the
declaration with weak linkage when resolving prevailing symbols in the
module. This was due to some special case handling for symbols marked
WeakLinkage in the summary located before instead of after a subsequent
check for the symbol being a declaration. It turns out that we don't
actually need this special case handling any more (looking back at the
history, when that was added the code was structured quite differently)
- we will correctly mark with weak linkage further below when the
definition hasn't been dropped.

Summary:
We hit undefined references building with ThinLTO when one source file
contained explicit instantiations of a template method (weak_odr) but
there were also implicit instantiations in another file (linkonce_odr),
and the latter was the prevailing copy. In this case the symbol was
marked hidden when the prevailing linkonce_odr copy was promoted to
weak_odr. It led to unsats when the resulting shared library was linked
with other code that contained a reference (expecting to be resolved due
to the explicit instantiation).
Add a CanAutoHide flag to the GV summary to allow the thin link to
identify when all copies are eligible for auto-hiding (because they were
all originally linkonce_odr global unnamed addr), and only do the
auto-hide in that case.
Most of the changes here are due to plumbing the new flag through the
bitcode and llvm assembly, and resulting test changes. I augmented the
existing auto-hide test to check for this situation.

Summary:
We can sometimes end up with multiple copies of a local variable that
have the same GUID in the index. This happens when there are local
variables with the same name that are in different source files having the
same name/path at compile time (but compiled into different bitcode objects).
In this case make sure we import the copy in the caller's module.
This enables importing both of the variables having the same GUID
(but which will have different promoted names since the module paths,
and therefore the module hashes, will be distinct).
Importing the wrong copy is particularly problematic for read only
variables, since we must import them as a local copy whenever
referenced. Otherwise we get undefs at link time.
Note that the llvm-lto.cpp and ThinLTOCodeGenerator changes are needed
for testing the distributed index case via clang, which will be sent as
a separate clang-side patch shortly. We were previously not doing the
dead code/read only computation before computing imports when testing
distributed index generation (like it was for testing importing and
other ThinLTO mechanisms alone).

This is a revised version of D41474.
When the debug location is parsed in BitcodeReader::parseFunction, the
scope and inlinedAt MDNodes are obtained via MDLoader->getMDNodeFwdRefOrNull(),
which will create a forward ref if they were not yet loaded.
Specifically, if one of these MDNodes is in the module level metadata
block, and this is during ThinLTO importing, that metadata block is
lazily loaded.
Most places in that invoke getMDNodeFwdRefOrNull have a corresponding call
to resolveForwardRefsAndPlaceholders which will take care of resolving them.
E.g. places that call getMetadataFwdRefOrLoad, or at the end of parsing a
function-level metadata block, or at the end of the initial lazy load of
module level metadata in order to handle invocations of getMDNodeFwdRefOrNull
for named metadata and global object attachments. However, the calls for
the scope/inlinedAt of debug locations are not backed by any such call to
resolveForwardRefsAndPlaceholders.
To fix this, change the scope and inlinedAt parsing to instead use
getMetadataFwdRefOrLoad, which will ensure the forward refs to lazily
loaded metadata are resolved.
