Add a unnamed_addr bit to global variables and functions. This will be used
to indicate that the address is not significant and therefore the constant
or function can be merged with others.
If an optimization pass can show that an address is not used, it can set this.
Examples of things that can have this set by the FE are globals created to
hold string literals and C++ constructors.
Adding unnamed_addr to a non-const global should have no effect unless
an optimization can transform that global into a constant.
Aliases are not allowed to have unnamed_addr since I couldn't figure
out any use for it.

It's similar to "linker_private_weak", but it's known that the address of the
object is not taken. For instance, functions that had an inline definition, but
the compiler decided not to inline it. Note, unlike linker_private and
linker_private_weak, linker_private_weak_def_auto may have only default
visibility. The symbols are removed by the linker from the final linked image

Objective-C metadata types which should be marked as "weak", but which the
linker will remove upon final linkage. However, this linkage isn't specific to
Objective-C.
For example, the "objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc" symbol is defined like this:
.globl l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
.weak_definition l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
.section __DATA, __objc_msgrefs, coalesced
.align 3
l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc:
.quad _objc_msgSend_fixup
.quad L_OBJC_METH_VAR_NAME_1
This is different from the "linker_private" linkage type, because it can't have
the metadata defined with ".weak_definition".
Currently only supported on Darwin platforms.

This time it's for real! I am going to hook this up in the frontends as well.
The inliner has some experimental heuristics for dealing with the inline hint.
When given a -respect-inlinehint option, functions marked with the inline
keyword are given a threshold just above the default for -O3.
We need some experiments to determine if that is the right thing to do.

Modules and ModuleProviders. Because the "ModuleProvider" simply materializes
GlobalValues now, and doesn't provide modules, it's renamed to
"GVMaterializer". Code that used to need a ModuleProvider to materialize
Functions can now materialize the Functions directly. Functions no longer use a
magic linkage to record that they're materializable; they simply ask the
GVMaterializer.
Because the C ABI must never change, we can't remove LLVMModuleProviderRef or
the functions that refer to it. Instead, because Module now exposes the same
functionality ModuleProvider used to, we store a Module* in any
LLVMModuleProviderRef and translate in the wrapper methods. The bindings to
other languages still use the ModuleProvider concept. It would probably be
worth some time to update them to follow the C++ more closely, but I don't
intend to do it.
Fixes http://llvm.org/PR5737 and http://llvm.org/PR5735.

getMDKindID/getMDKindNames methods to LLVMContext (and add

Move the state that it maintains out to LLVMContext.
llvm-svn: 92259
I asked Devang to do back on Sep 27. Instead of going through the
MetadataContext class with methods like getMD() and getMDs(), just
ask the instruction directly for its metadata with getMetadata()
and getAllMetadata().
This includes a variety of other fixes and improvements: previously
all Value*'s were bloated because the HasMetadata bit was thrown into
value, adding a 9th bit to a byte. Now this is properly sunk down to
the Instruction class (the only place where it makes sense) and it
will be folded away somewhere soon.
This also fixes some confusion in getMDs and its clients about
whether the returned list is indexed by the MDID or densely packed.
This is now returned sorted and densely packed and the comments make
this clear.
This introduces a number of fixme's which I'll follow up on.

Here is the original commit message:
This commit updates malloc optimizations to operate on malloc calls that have constant int size arguments.
Update CreateMalloc so that its callers specify the size to allocate:
MallocInst-autoupgrade users use non-TargetData-computed allocation sizes.
Optimization uses use TargetData to compute the allocation size.
Now that malloc calls can have constant sizes, update isArrayMallocHelper() to use TargetData to determine the size of the malloced type and the size of malloced arrays.
Extend getMallocType() to support malloc calls that have non-bitcast uses.
Update OptimizeGlobalAddressOfMalloc() to optimize malloc calls that have non-bitcast uses. The bitcast use of a malloc call has to be treated specially here because the uses of the bitcast need to be replaced and the bitcast needs to be erased (just like the malloc call) for OptimizeGlobalAddressOfMalloc() to work correctly.
Update PerformHeapAllocSRoA() to optimize malloc calls that have non-bitcast uses. The bitcast use of the malloc is not handled specially here because ReplaceUsesOfMallocWithGlobal replaces through the bitcast use.
Update OptimizeOnceStoredGlobal() to not care about the malloc calls' bitcast use.
Update all globalopt malloc tests to not rely on autoupgraded-MallocInsts, but instead use explicit malloc calls with correct allocation sizes.

blockaddress with a new blockaddress(@func, null) instead of a

block of the function would also be quite reasonable).

Most changes are cleanup, but there is 1 correctness fix:
I fixed InstCombine so that the icmp is removed only if the malloc call is removed (which requires explicit removal because the Worklist won't DCE any calls since they can have side-effects).

Constant uniquing tables. This allows distinct ConstantExpr objects
with the same operation and different flags.
Even though a ConstantExpr "a + b" is either always overflowing or
never overflowing (due to being a ConstantExpr), it's still necessary
to be able to represent it both with and without overflow flags at
the same time within the IR, because the safety of the flag may
depend on the context of the use. If the constant really does overflow,
it wouldn't ever be safe to use with the flag set, however the use
may be in code that is never actually executed.
This also makes it possible to merge all the flags tests into a single test.

Also create isValidElementType for ArrayType, PointerType, StructType and

Make LLParser use them. This closes up some holes like an assertion failure on:

we didn't before is vectors of opaque type such as "<4 x opaque>". The opaque
can be resolved to an int or float when linking.

call, we should treat "i64 zext" as the start of a constant expr, but

and extern_weak_odr. These are the same as the non-odr versions,
except that they indicate that the global will only be overridden
by an *equivalent* global. In C, a function with weak linkage can
be overridden by a function which behaves completely differently.
This means that IP passes have to skip weak functions, since any
deductions made from the function definition might be wrong, since
the definition could be replaced by something completely different
at link time. This is not allowed in C++, thanks to the ODR
(One-Definition-Rule): if a function is replaced by another at
link-time, then the new function must be the same as the original
function. If a language knows that a function or other global can
only be overridden by an equivalent global, it can give it the
weak_odr linkage type, and the optimizers will understand that it
is alright to make deductions based on the function body. The
code generators on the other hand map weak and weak_odr linkage
to the same thing.
