patch brings numerous advantages to LLVM. One way to look at it
is through diffstat:
109 files changed, 3005 insertions(+), 5906 deletions(-)
Removing almost 3K lines of code is a good thing. Other advantages
include:
1. Value::getType() is a simple load that can be CSE'd, not a mutating
union-find operation.
2. Types a uniqued and never move once created, defining away PATypeHolder.
3. Structs can be "named" now, and their name is part of the identity that
uniques them. This means that the compiler doesn't merge them structurally
which makes the IR much less confusing.
4. Now that there is no way to get a cycle in a type graph without a named
struct type, "upreferences" go away.
5. Type refinement is completely gone, which should make LTO much MUCH faster
in some common cases with C++ code.
6. Types are now generally immutable, so we can use "Type *" instead
"const Type *" everywhere.
Downsides of this patch are that it removes some functions from the C API,
so people using those will have to upgrade to (not yet added) new API.
"LLVM 3.0" is the right time to do this.
There are still some cleanups pending after this, this patch is large enough
as-is.

for pre-2.9 bitcode files. We keep x86 unaligned loads, movnt, crc32, and the
target indep prefetch change.
As usual, updating the testsuite is a PITA.

patch we add a flag to enable a new type legalization decision - to promote
integer elements in vectors. Currently, the rest of the codegen does not support
this kind of legalization. This flag will be removed when the transition is
complete.

The DAGCombiner created illegal BUILD_VECTOR operations.
The patch added a check that either illegal operations are
allowed or that the created operation is legal.

In the bottom-up selection DAG scheduling, handle two-address
instructions that read/write unspillable registers. Treat
the entire chain of two-address nodes as a single live range.

sequence of loads and stores was being generated to perform the
copy on the x86 targets if the parameter was less than 4 byte
aligned, causing llc to use up vast amounts of memory and time.
Use a "rep movs" form instead. PR7170.

expansion is the same as that used by LegalizeDAG.
The resulting code sucks in terms of performance/codesize on x86-32 for a
64-bit operation; I haven't looked into whether different expansions might be
better in general.

otherwise the SmallVector it contains doesn't free its memory.
In most cases LiveIntervalAnalysis could get away by not calling the destructor,
because VNInfos are bumpptr-allocated, and smallvectors usually don't grow.
However when the SmallVector does grow it always leaks.
This is the valgrind shown leak from the original testcase:

to LLVM IR changes with addr label weirdness. In the testcase, we
generate references to the two bb's when codegen'ing the first
function:
_test1: ## @test1
leaq Ltmp0(%rip), %rax
..
leaq Ltmp1(%rip), %rax
Then continue to codegen the second function where the blocks
get merged. We're now smart enough to emit both labels, producing
this code:
_test_fun: ## @test_fun
## BB#0: ## %entry
Ltmp1: ## Block address taken
Ltmp0:
## BB#1: ## %ret
movl $-1, %eax
ret
Rejoice.
