Mehdi Amini a53d49e1b5 Don't create a SymbolTable in Function when the LLVMContext discards value names (NFC)
The ValueSymbolTable is used to detect name conflict and rename
instructions automatically. This is not needed when the value
names are automatically discarded by the LLVMContext.
No functional change intended, just saving a little bit of memory.

This is a recommit of r281806 after fixing the accessor to return
a pointer instead of a reference and updating all the call-sites.

Mehdi Amini e470927187 Fix auto-upgrade of TBAA tags in Bitcode Reader
If TBAA is on an intrinsic and it gets upgraded, it'll delete the call
instruction that we collected in a vector. Even if we were to use
WeakVH, it'll drop the TBAA and we'll hit the assert on the upgrade
path.

r263673 gave a shot to make sure the TBAA upgrade happens before
intrinsics upgrade, but failed to account for all cases.

Instead of collecting instructions in a vector, this patch makes it
just upgrade the TBAA on the fly, because metadata are always
already loaded at this point.

Reid Kleckner b5af11dfa3 [codeview] Add DISubprogram::ThisAdjustment
Summary:
This represents the adjustment applied to the implicit 'this' parameter
in the prologue of a virtual method in the MS C++ ABI. The adjustment is
always zero unless multiple inheritance is involved.

This increases the size of DISubprogram by 8 bytes, unfortunately. The
adjustment really is a signed 32-bit integer. If this size increase is
too much, we could probably win it back by splitting out a subclass with
info specific to virtual methods (virtuality, vindex, thisadjustment,
containingType).

Peter Collingbourne 21521891a2 IR: Allow metadata attachments on declarations, and fix lazy loaded metadata issue with globals.
This change is motivated by an upcoming change to the metadata representation
used for CFI. The indirect function call checker needs type information for
external function declarations in order to correctly generate jump table
entries for such declarations. We currently associate such type information
with declarations using a global metadata node, but I plan [1] to move all
such metadata to global object attachments.

In bitcode, metadata attachments for function declarations appear in the
global metadata block. This seems reasonable to me because I expect metadata
attachments on declarations to be uncommon. In the long term I'd also expect
this to be the case for CFI, because we'd want to use some specialized bitcode
format for this metadata that could be read as part of the ThinLTO thin-link
phase, which would mean that it would not appear in the global metadata block.

To solve the lazy loaded metadata issue I was seeing with D20147, I use the
same bitcode representation for metadata attachments for global variables as I
do for function declarations. Since there's a use case for metadata attachments
in the global metadata block, we might as well use that representation for
global variables as well, at least until we have a mechanism for lazy loading
global variables.

In the assembly format, the metadata attachments appear after the "declare"
keyword in order to avoid a parsing ambiguity.

Peter Collingbourne 96efdd6107 IR: Introduce local_unnamed_addr attribute.
If a local_unnamed_addr attribute is attached to a global, the address
is known to be insignificant within the module. It is distinct from the
existing unnamed_addr attribute in that it only describes a local property
of the module rather than a global property of the symbol.

This attribute is intended to be used by the code generator and LTO to allow
the linker to decide whether the global needs to be in the symbol table. It is
possible to exclude a global from the symbol table if three things are true:
- This attribute is present on every instance of the global (which means that
  the normal rule that the global must have a unique address can be broken without
  being observable by the program by performing comparisons against the global's
  address)
- The global has linkonce_odr linkage (which means that each linkage unit must have
  its own copy of the global if it requires one, and the copy in each linkage unit
  must be the same)
- It is a constant or a function (which means that the program cannot observe that
  the unique-address rule has been broken by writing to the global)

Although this attribute could in principle be computed from the module
contents, LTO clients (i.e. linkers) will normally need to be able to compute
this property as part of symbol resolution, and it would be inefficient to
materialize every module just to compute it.

Reid Kleckner de3d8b500f [DebugInfo] Add calling convention support for DWARF and CodeView
Summary:
Now DISubroutineType has a 'cc' field which should be a DW_CC_ enum.  If
it is present and non-zero, the backend will emit it as a
DW_AT_calling_convention attribute. On the CodeView side, we translate
it to the appropriate enum for the LF_PROCEDURE record.

I added a new LLVM vendor specific enum to the list of DWARF calling
conventions. DWARF does not appear to attempt to standardize these, so I
assume it's OK to do this until we coordinate with GCC on how to emit
vectorcall convention functions.

An oddity of the .ll syntax is that the "@var = " in

global i32 42

is equivalent to

@0 = global i32 42

This means that there is a pretty big First set at the top level. The
current implementation maintains it manually. I was trying to refactor
it, but then started wondering why keep it a all. I personally find the
above syntax confusing. It looks like something is missing.

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith 9738602869 IR: Enable debug info type ODR uniquing for forward decls
Add a new method, DICompositeType::buildODRType, that will create or
mutate the DICompositeType for a given ODR identifier, and use it in
LLParser and BitcodeReader instead of DICompositeType::getODRType.

The logic is as follows:

  - If there's no node, create one with the given arguments.
  - Else, if the current node is a forward declaration and the new
    arguments would create a definition, mutate the node to match the
    new arguments.
  - Else, return the old node.

This adds a missing feature supported by the current DITypeIdentifierMap
(which I'm slowly making redudant).  The only remaining difference is
that the DITypeIdentifierMap has a "the-last-one-wins" rule, whereas
DICompositeType::buildODRType has a "the-first-one-wins" rule.

For now I'm leaving behind DICompositeType::getODRType since it has
obvious, low-level semantics that are convenient for unit testing.

Lift the API for debug info ODR type uniquing up a layer.  Instead of
clients managing the map directly on the LLVMContext, add a static
method to DICompositeType called getODRType and handle the map in the
background.  Also adds DICompositeType::getODRTypeIfExists, so far just
for convenience in the unit tests.

This simplifies the logic in LLParser and BitcodeReader.  Because of
argument spam there are actually a few more lines of code now; I'll see
if I come up with a reasonable way to clean that up.

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith 5ab2be094e IR: Use an explicit map for debug info type uniquing
Rather than relying on the structural equivalence of DICompositeType to
merge type definitions, use an explicit map on the LLVMContext that
LLParser and BitcodeReader consult when constructing new nodes.
Each non-forward-declaration DICompositeType with a non-empty
'identifier:' field is stored/loaded from the type map, and the first
definiton will "win".

This map is opt-in: clients that expect ODR types from different modules
to be merged must call LLVMContext::ensureDITypeMap.

  - Clients that just happen to load more than one Module in the same
    LLVMContext won't magically merge types.

  - Clients (like LTO) that want to continue to merge types based on ODR
    identifiers should opt-in immediately.

I have updated LTOCodeGenerator.cpp, the two "linking" spots in
gold-plugin.cpp, and llvm-link (unless -disable-debug-info-type-map) to
set this.

With this in place, it will be straightforward to remove the DITypeRef
concept (i.e., referencing types by their 'identifier:' string rather
than pointing at them directly).

Adrian Prantl 75819aedf6 [PR27284] Reverse the ownership between DICompileUnit and DISubprogram.
Currently each Function points to a DISubprogram and DISubprogram has a
scope field. For member functions the scope is a DICompositeType. DIScopes
point to the DICompileUnit to facilitate type uniquing.

Distinct DISubprograms (with isDefinition: true) are not part of the type
hierarchy and cannot be uniqued. This change removes the subprograms
list from DICompileUnit and instead adds a pointer to the owning compile
unit to distinct DISubprograms. This would make it easy for ThinLTO to
strip unneeded DISubprograms and their transitively referenced debug info.

Motivation
----------

Materializing DISubprograms is currently the most expensive operation when
doing a ThinLTO build of clang.

We want the DISubprogram to be stored in a separate Bitcode block (or the
same block as the function body) so we can avoid having to expensively
deserialize all DISubprograms together with the global metadata. If a
function has been inlined into another subprogram we need to store a
reference the block containing the inlined subprogram.

Attached to https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=27284 is a python script
that updates LLVM IR testcases to the new format.

JF Bastien 800f87a871 NFC: make AtomicOrdering an enum class
Summary:
In the context of http://wg21.link/lwg2445 C++ uses the concept of
'stronger' ordering but doesn't define it properly. This should be fixed
in C++17 barring a small question that's still open.

The code currently plays fast and loose with the AtomicOrdering
enum. Using an enum class is one step towards tightening things. I later
also want to tighten related enums, such as clang's
AtomicOrderingKind (which should be shared with LLVM as a 'C++ ABI'
enum).

This change touches a few lines of code which can be improved later, I'd
like to keep it as NFC for now as it's already quite complex. I have
related changes for clang.

As a follow-up I'll add:
  bool operator<(AtomicOrdering, AtomicOrdering) = delete;
  bool operator>(AtomicOrdering, AtomicOrdering) = delete;
  bool operator<=(AtomicOrdering, AtomicOrdering) = delete;
  bool operator>=(AtomicOrdering, AtomicOrdering) = delete;
This is separate so that clang and LLVM changes don't need to be in sync.

Remove logic to upgrade !llvm.loop by changing the MDString tag
directly.  This old logic would check (and change) arbitrary strings
that had nothing to do with loop metadata.  Instead, check !llvm.loop
attachments directly, and change which strings get attached.

Rather than updating the assembly-based upgrade, drop it entirely.  It
has been quite a while since we supported upgrading textual IR.

Peter Collingbourne a1f8625662 DebugInfo: Add ability to not emit DW_AT_vtable_elem_location for virtual functions.
A virtual index of -1u indicates that the subprogram's virtual index is
unrepresentable (for example, when using the relative vtable ABI), so do
not emit a DW_AT_vtable_elem_location attribute for it.

Mehdi Amini 09b4a8daa3 Add a flag to the LLVMContext to disable name for Value other than GlobalValue
Summary:
This is intended to be a performance flag, on the same level as clang
cc1 option "--disable-free". LLVM will never initialize it by default,
it will be up to the client creating the LLVMContext to request this
behavior. Clang will do it by default in Release build (just like
--disable-free).

"opt" and "llc" can opt-in using -disable-named-value command line
option.

When performing LTO on llvm-tblgen, the initial merging of IR peaks
at 92MB without this patch, and 86MB after this patch,setNameImpl()
drops from 6.5MB to 0.5MB.
The total link time goes from ~29.5s to ~27.8s.

Compared to a compile-time flag (like the IRBuilder one), it performs
very close. I profiled on SROA and obtain these results:

 420ms with IRBuilder that preserve name
 372ms with IRBuilder that strip name
 375ms with IRBuilder that preserve name, and a runtime flag to strip
