The personality routine currently lives in the LandingPadInst.
This isn't desirable because:
- All LandingPadInsts in the same function must have the same
personality routine. This means that each LandingPadInst beyond the
first has an operand which produces no additional information.
- There is ongoing work to introduce EH IR constructs other than
LandingPadInst. Moving the personality routine off of any one
particular Instruction and onto the parent function seems a lot better
than have N different places a personality function can sneak onto an
exceptional function.

This removes the -sehprepare flag and makes __C_specific_handler
functions always to use WinEHPrepare.
This was tested by building all of chromium_builder_tests and running a
few tests that use SEH, but if something breaks, we can revert this.

Keep the old SEH fan-in lowering on by default for now, since projects
rely on it. This will make it easy to test this change with a simple
flag flip.
llvm-svn: 235399
This now emits simple, unoptimized xdata tables for __C_specific_handler
based on the handlers listed in @llvm.eh.actions calls produced by
WinEHPrepare.
This adds support for running __finally blocks when exceptions are
thrown, and removes the old landingpad fan-in codepath.
I ran some manual execution tests on small basic test cases with and
without optimization, as well as on Chrome base_unittests, which uses a
small amount of SEH. I'm sure there are bugs, and we may need to
revert.

See r230786 and r230794 for similar changes to gep and load
respectively.
Call is a bit different because it often doesn't have a single explicit
type - usually the type is deduced from the arguments, and just the
return type is explicit. In those cases there's no need to change the
IR.
When that's not the case, the IR usually contains the pointer type of
the first operand - but since typed pointers are going away, that
representation is insufficient so I'm just stripping the "pointerness"
of the explicit type away.
This does make the IR a bit weird - it /sort of/ reads like the type of
the first operand: "call void () %x(" but %x is actually of type "void
()*" and will eventually be just of type "ptr". But this seems not too
bad and I don't think it would benefit from repeating the type
("void (), void () * %x(" and then eventually "void (), ptr %x(") as has
been done with gep and load.
This also has a side benefit: since the explicit type is no longer a
pointer, there's no ambiguity between an explicit type and a function
that returns a function pointer. Previously this case needed an explicit
type (eg: a function returning a void() function was written as
"call void () () * @x(" rather than "call void () * @x(" because of the
ambiguity between a function returning a pointer to a void() function
and a function returning void).
No ambiguity means even function pointer return types can just be
written alone, without writing the whole function's type.
This leaves /only/ the varargs case where the explicit type is required.
Given the special type syntax in call instructions, the regex-fu used
for migration was a bit more involved in its own unique way (as every
one of these is) so here it is. Use it in conjunction with the apply.sh
script and associated find/xargs commands I've provided in rr230786 to
migrate your out of tree tests. Do let me know if any of this doesn't
cover your cases & we can iterate on a more general script/regexes to
help others with out of tree tests.
About 9 test cases couldn't be automatically migrated - half of those
were functions returning function pointers, where I just had to manually
delete the function argument types now that we didn't need an explicit
function type there. The other half were typedefs of function types used
in calls - just had to manually drop the * from those.

Similar to gep (r230786) and load (r230794) changes.
Similar migration script can be used to update test cases, which
successfully migrated all of LLVM and Polly, but about 4 test cases
needed manually changes in Clang.
(this script will read the contents of stdin and massage it into stdout
- wrap it in the 'apply.sh' script shown in previous commits + xargs to
apply it over a large set of test cases)
import fileinput
import sys
import re
rep = re.compile(r"(getelementptr(?:\s+inbounds)?\s*\()((<\d*\s+x\s+)?([^@]*?)(|\s*addrspace\(\d+\))\s*\*(?(3)>)\s*)(?=$|%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|zeroinitializer|<|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{)", re.MULTILINE | re.DOTALL)

return line
line = sys.stdin.read()

sys.stdout.write(line[off:])

Essentially the same as the GEP change in r230786.
A similar migration script can be used to update test cases, though a few more
test case improvements/changes were required this time around: (r229269-r229278)
import fileinput
import sys
import re
pat = re.compile(r"((?:=|:|^)\s*load (?:atomic )?(?:volatile )?(.*?))(| addrspace\(\d+\) *)\*($| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$)")

If the personality is not a recognized MSVC personality function, this
pass delegates to the dwarf EH preparation pass. This chaining supports
people on *-windows-itanium or *-windows-gnu targets.
Currently this recognizes some personalities used by MSVC and turns
resume instructions into traps to avoid link errors. Even if cleanups
are not used in the source program, LLVM requires the frontend to emit a
code path that resumes unwinding after an exception. Clang does this,
and we get unreachable resume instructions. PR20300 covers cleaning up
these unreachable calls to resume.

This adds handling for ExceptionHandling::MSVC, used by the
x86_64-pc-windows-msvc triple. It assumes that filter functions have
already been outlined in either the frontend or the backend. Filter
functions are used in place of the landingpad catch clause type info
operands. In catch clause order, the first filter to return true will
catch the exception.
The C specific handler table expects the landing pad to be split into
one block per handler, but LLVM IR uses a single landing pad for all
possible unwind actions. This patch papers over the mismatch by
synthesizing single instruction BBs for every catch clause to fill in
the EH selector that the landing pad block expects.
Missing functionality:
- Accessing data in the parent frame from outlined filters
- Cleanups (from __finally) are unsupported, as they will require
outlining and parent frame access
- Filter clauses are unsupported, as there's no clear analogue in SEH
In other words, this is the minimal set of changes needed to write IR to
catch arbitrary exceptions and resume normal execution.
