The @llvm.get.dynamic.area.offset.* intrinsic family is used to get the offset
from native stack pointer to the address of the most recent dynamic alloca on
the caller's stack. These intrinsics are intendend for use in combination with
@llvm.stacksave and @llvm.restore to get a pointer to the most recent dynamic
alloca. This is useful, for example, for AddressSanitizer's stack unpoisoning
routines.

The main motivation is to not require a latex installation when building
the documentation. I would also expect a better image quality and the
ability to copy&paste from formulas with a javascript based solution for
displaying the math.

The new option is similar to the SampleProfile dump option.
- dump raw/indexed format into text profile format
- merge the profile and output into text profile format.
Note that Value Profiling data text format is not yet designed.
That functionality will be added later.

The masked intrinsics support all integer and floating point data types. I added the pointer type to this list.
Added tests for CodeGen and for Loop Vectorizer.
Updated the Language Reference.

This change introduces an instrumentation intrinsic instruction for
value profiling purposes, the lowering of the instrumentation intrinsic
and raw reader updates. The raw profile data files for llvm-profdata
testing are updated.

Summary:
This change teaches LLVM's inliner to track and suitably adjust
deoptimization state (tracked via deoptimization operand bundles) as it
inlines through call sites. The operation is described in more detail
in the LangRef changes.

Several backends have instructions to reverse the order of bits in an integer. Conceptually matching such patterns is similar to @llvm.bswap, and it was mentioned in http://reviews.llvm.org/D14234 that it would be best if these patterns were matched in InstCombine instead of reimplemented in every different target.
This patch introduces an intrinsic @llvm.bitreverse.i* that operates similarly to @llvm.bswap. For plumbing purposes there is also a new ISD node ISD::BITREVERSE, with simple expansion and promotion support.
The intention is that InstCombine's BSWAP detection logic will be extended to support BITREVERSE too, and @llvm.bitreverse intrinsics emitted (if the backend supports lowering it efficiently).

When working with tokens, it is often the case that one has instructions
which consume a token and produce a new token. Currently, we have no
mechanism to represent an initial token state.
Instead, we can create a notional "empty token" by inventing a new
constant which captures the semantics we would like. This new constant
is called ConstantTokenNone and is written textually as "token none".

Summary:
This change introduces the notion of "deoptimization" operand bundles.
LLVM can recognize and optimize these in more precise ways than it can a
generic "unknown" operand bundles.
The current form of this special recognition / optimization is an enum
entry in LLVMContext, a LangRef blurb and a verifier rule. Over time we
will teach LLVM to do more aggressive optimization around deoptimization
operand bundles, exploiting known facts about kinds of state
deoptimization operand bundles are allowed to track.

Summary:
This patch adds documentation on compiling CUDA with LLVM as requested by many
engineers and researchers. It includes not only user guides but also some
internals (mostly optimizations) so that early adopters can start hacking and
contributing.
Quite a few researchers who contacted us haven't used LLVM before, which is
unsurprising as it hasn't been long since LLVM picked up CUDA. So I added a
short summary to help these folks get started with LLVM.
I expect this document to evolve substantially down the road. The user guides
will be much simplified after the Clang integration is done. However, the
internals should continue growing to include for example performance debugging
and key areas to improve.

"GCC requires the freestanding environment provide memcpy, memmove, memset
and memcmp": https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-5.2.0/gcc/Standards.html
Hence in GNUEABI targets LLVM should not convert 'memops' to their equivalent
'__aeabi_memops'. This convertion violates GCC contract.
The -meabi flag controls whether or not LLVM will modify 'memops' in GNUEABI
targets.
Without -meabi: use the triple default EABI.
With -meabi=default: use the triple default EABI.
With -meabi=gnu: use 'memops'.
With -meabi=4 or -meabi=5: use '__aeabi_memops'.
With -meabi set to an unknown value: same as -meabi=default.

This marker prevents optimization passes from adding 'tail' or
'musttail' markers to a call. Is is used to prevent tail call
optimization from being performed on the call.

This attribute allows the compiler to assume that the function never recurses into itself, either directly or indirectly (transitively). This can be used among other things to demote global variables to locals.

Windows has two different mangling specifiers. `x` is used on x86 for the `_`
UserLabelPrefix. Others use `w` for the no UserLabelPrefix.

Summary:
This makes attribute accessors on `CallInst` and `InvokeInst` do the
(conservatively) right thing. This essentially involves, in some
cases, *not* falling back querying the attributes on the called
`llvm::Function` when operand bundles are present.
Attributes locally present on the `CallInst` or `InvokeInst` will still
override operand bundle semantics. The LangRef has been amended to
reflect this. Note: this change does not do anything prevent
`-function-attrs` from inferring `CallSite` local attributes after
inspecting the called function -- that will be done as a separate
change.
I've used `-adce` and `-early-cse` to test these changes. There is
nothing special about these passes (and they did not require any
changes) except that they seemed be the easiest way to write the tests.
This change does not add deal with `argmemonly`. That's a later change
because alias analysis requires a related fix before `argmemonly` can be
tested.
