Currently we have a number of tests that fail with -verify-machineinstrs.
To detect this cases earlier we add the option to the testcases with the
exception of tests that will currently fail with this option. PR 27456 keeps
track of this failures.
No code review, as discussed with Hal Finkel.

These intrinsics currently have an explicit alignment argument which is
required to be a constant integer. It represents the alignment of the
source and dest, and so must be the minimum of those.
This change allows source and dest to each have their own alignments
by using the alignment attribute on their arguments. The alignment
argument itself is removed.
There are a few places in the code for which the code needs to be
checked by an expert as to whether using only src/dest alignment is
safe. For those places, they currently take the minimum of src/dest
alignments which matches the current behaviour.
For example, code which used to read:
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* %dest, i8* %src, i32 500, i32 8, i1 false)
will now read:
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* align 8 %dest, i8* align 8 %src, i32 500, i1 false)
For out of tree owners, I was able to strip alignment from calls using sed by replacing:
(call.*llvm\.memset.*)i32\ [0-9]*\,\ i1 false\)
with:
$1i1 false)
and similarly for memmove and memcpy.
I then added back in alignment to test cases which needed it.
A similar commit will be made to clang which actually has many differences in alignment as now
IRBuilder can generate different source/dest alignments on calls.
In IRBuilder itself, a new argument was added. Instead of calling:
CreateMemCpy(Dst, Src, getInt64(Size), DstAlign, /* isVolatile */ false)
you now call
CreateMemCpy(Dst, Src, getInt64(Size), DstAlign, SrcAlign, /* isVolatile */ false)
There is a temporary class (IntegerAlignment) which takes the source alignment and rejects
implicit conversion from bool. This is to prevent isVolatile here from passing its default
parameter to the source alignment.
Note, changes in future can now be made to codegen. I didn't change anything here, but this
change should enable better memcpy code sequences.

When combiner AA is enabled, look at stores on the same chain.
Non-aliasing stores are moved to the same chain so the existing
code fails because it expects to find an adajcent store on a consecutive
chain.
Because of how DAGCombiner tries these store combines,
MergeConsecutiveStores doesn't see the correct set of stores on the chain
when it visits the other stores. Each store individually has its chain
fixed before trying to merge consecutive stores, and then tries to merge
stores from that point before the other stores have been processed to
have their chains fixed. To fix this, attempt to use FindBetterChain
on any possibly neighboring stores in visitSTORE.
Suppose you have 4 32-bit stores that should be merged into 1 vector
store. One store would be visited first, fixing the chain. What happens is
because not all of the store chains have yet been fixed, 2 of the stores
are merged. The other 2 stores later have their chains fixed,
but because the other stores were already merged, they have different
memory types and merging the two different sized stores is not
supported and would be more difficult to handle.

When using Altivec, we can use vector loads and stores for aligned memcpy and
friends. Starting with the P7 and VXS, we have reasonable unaligned vector
stores. Starting with the P8, we have fast unaligned loads too.
For QPX, we use vector loads are stores, but only for aligned memory accesses.
