Pair up inlined AutoreleaseRV calls with their matching RetainRV or
ClaimRV.
- RetainRV cancels out AutoreleaseRV. Delete both instructions.
- ClaimRV is a peephole for RetainRV+Release. Delete AutoreleaseRV and
replace ClaimRV with Release.
This avoids problems where more aggressive inlining triggers memory
regressions.
This patch is happy to skip over non-callable instructions and non-ARC
intrinsics looking for the pair. It is likely sound to also skip over
opaque function calls, but that's harder to reason about, and it's not
relevant to the goal here: if there's an opaque function call splitting
up a pair, it's very unlikely that a handshake would have happened
dynamically without inlining.
Note that this patch also subsumes the previous logic that looked
backwards from ReleaseRV.

When eliminating a pair of
`llvm.objc.autoreleaseReturnValue`
followed by
`llvm.objc.retainAutoreleasedReturnValue`
we need to make sure that the instructions in between are safe to
ignore.
Other than bitcasts and useless GEPs, it's also safe to ignore lifetime
markers for both static allocas (lifetime.start/lifetime.end) and dynamic
allocas (stacksave/stackrestore).
These get added by the inliner as part of the return sequence and can
prevent the transformation from happening in practice.

DominatorTree::dominate.
ARC contract pass has an optimization that replaces the uses of the
argument of an ObjC runtime function call with the call result.
For example:
; Before optimization
%1 = tail call i8* @foo1()
%2 = tail call i8* @llvm.objc.retainAutoreleasedReturnValue(i8* %1)
store i8* %1, i8** @g0, align 8
; After optimization
%1 = tail call i8* @foo1()
%2 = tail call i8* @llvm.objc.retainAutoreleasedReturnValue(i8* %1)
store i8* %2, i8** @g0, align 8 // %1 is replaced with %2
Before replacing the argument use, DominatorTree::dominate is called to
determine whether the user instruction is dominated by the ObjC runtime
function call instruction. The call to DominatorTree::dominate can be
expensive if the two instructions belong to the same basic block and the
size of the basic block is large. This patch checks the basic block size
and just bails out if the size exceeds the limit set by command line

The intrinsic will keep existing if we keep it from optimized out.

llvm.dbg.label(metadata !1)
It has only one argument, that is the DILabel metadata. The
intrinsic will follow the label immediately. Backend could get the

retainAutoreleasedReturnValue that retains the returned value.
This commit fixes a bug in ARC optimizer where it moves a release
between a call and a retainAutoreleasedReturnValue, causing the returned
object to be released before the retainAutoreleasedReturnValue can
retain it.
This commit accomplishes that by doing a lookahead and checking whether
the call prevents the release from moving upwards. In the long term, we
should treat the region between the retainAutoreleasedReturnValue and
the call as a critical section and disallow moving anything there
(possibly using operand bundles).

We need to do this to prevent a miscompile which sinks an objc_retain
past an objc_release that releases the object objc_retain retains. This
happens because the top-down and bottom-up traversals each determines
the insert point for retain or release individually without knowing
where the other instruction is moved.
For example, when the following IR is fed to the ARC optimizer, the
top-down traversal decides to insert objc_retain right before
objc_release and the bottom-up traversal decides to insert objc_release
right after clang.arc.use.
(IR before ARC optimizer)
%11 = call i8* @objc_retain(i8* %10)
call void (...) @clang.arc.use(%0* %5)
call void @llvm.dbg.value(...)
call void @objc_release(i8* %6)
This reverses the order of objc_release and objc_retain, which causes
the object to be destructed prematurely.
(IR after ARC optimizer)

ObjC library call with call return.
ARC contraction tries to replace uses of an argument passed to an
objective-c library call with the call return value. For example, in the
following IR, it replaces uses of argument %9 and uses of the values
discovered traversing the chain upwards (%7 and %8) with the call return
%10, if they are dominated by the call to @objc_autoreleaseReturnValue.
This transformation enables code-gen to tail-call the call to
@objc_autoreleaseReturnValue, which is necessary to enable auto release
return value optimization.
%7 = tail call i8* @objc_loadWeakRetained(i8** %6)
%8 = bitcast i8* %7 to %0*
%9 = bitcast %0* %8 to i8*
%10 = tail call i8* @objc_autoreleaseReturnValue(i8* %9)
ret %0* %8
Since r276727, llvm started removing redundant bitcasts and as a result
started feeding the following IR to ARC contraction:
%7 = tail call i8* @objc_loadWeakRetained(i8** %6)
%8 = bitcast i8* %7 to %0*
%9 = tail call i8* @objc_autoreleaseReturnValue(i8* %7)
ret %0* %8
ARC contraction no longer does the optimization described above since it
only traverses the chain upwards and fails to recognize that the
function return can be replaced by the call return. This commit changes
ARC contraction to traverse the chain downwards too and replace uses of
bitcasts with the call return.

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.

Summary:
Fixes PR26774.
If you're aware of the issue, feel free to skip the "Motivation"
section and jump directly to "This patch".
Motivation:
I define "refinement" as discarding behaviors from a program that the
optimizer has license to discard. So transforming:
```
void f(unsigned x) {
unsigned t = 5 / x;
(void)t;
}
```
to
```
void f(unsigned x) { }
```
is refinement, since the behavior went from "if x == 0 then undefined
else nothing" to "nothing" (the optimizer has license to discard
undefined behavior).
Refinement is a fundamental aspect of many mid-level optimizations done
by LLVM. For instance, transforming `x == (x + 1)` to `false` also
involves refinement since the expression's value went from "if x is
`undef` then { `true` or `false` } else { `false` }" to "`false`" (by
definition, the optimizer has license to fold `undef` to any non-`undef`
value).
Unfortunately, refinement implies that the optimizer cannot assume
that the implementation of a function it can see has all of the
behavior an unoptimized or a differently optimized version of the same
function can have. This is a problem for functions with comdat
linkage, where a function can be replaced by an unoptimized or a
differently optimized version of the same source level function.
For instance, FunctionAttrs cannot assume a comdat function is
actually `readnone` even if it does not have any loads or stores in
it; since there may have been loads and stores in the "original
function" that were refined out in the currently visible variant, and
at the link step the linker may in fact choose an implementation with
a load or a store. As an example, consider a function that does two
atomic loads from the same memory location, and writes to memory only
if the two values are not equal. The optimizer is allowed to refine
this function by first CSE'ing the two loads, and the folding the
comparision to always report that the two values are equal. Such a
refined variant will look like it is `readonly`. However, the
unoptimized version of the function can still write to memory (since
the two loads //can// result in different values), and selecting the
unoptimized version at link time will retroactively invalidate
transforms we may have done under the assumption that the function
does not write to memory.
Note: this is not just a problem with atomics or with linking
differently optimized object files. See PR26774 for more realistic
examples that involved neither.
This patch:
This change introduces a new set of linkage types, predicated as
`GlobalValue::mayBeDerefined` that returns true if the linkage type
allows a function to be replaced by a differently optimized variant at
link time. It then changes a set of IPO passes to bail out if they see
such a function.

These intrinsics currently have an explicit alignment argument which is
required to be a constant integer. It represents the alignment of the
source and dest, and so must be the minimum of those.
This change allows source and dest to each have their own alignments
by using the alignment attribute on their arguments. The alignment
argument itself is removed.
There are a few places in the code for which the code needs to be
checked by an expert as to whether using only src/dest alignment is
safe. For those places, they currently take the minimum of src/dest
alignments which matches the current behaviour.
For example, code which used to read:
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* %dest, i8* %src, i32 500, i32 8, i1 false)
will now read:
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* align 8 %dest, i8* align 8 %src, i32 500, i1 false)
For out of tree owners, I was able to strip alignment from calls using sed by replacing:
(call.*llvm\.memset.*)i32\ [0-9]*\,\ i1 false\)
with:
$1i1 false)
and similarly for memmove and memcpy.
I then added back in alignment to test cases which needed it.
A similar commit will be made to clang which actually has many differences in alignment as now
IRBuilder can generate different source/dest alignments on calls.
In IRBuilder itself, a new argument was added. Instead of calling:
CreateMemCpy(Dst, Src, getInt64(Size), DstAlign, /* isVolatile */ false)
you now call
CreateMemCpy(Dst, Src, getInt64(Size), DstAlign, SrcAlign, /* isVolatile */ false)
There is a temporary class (IntegerAlignment) which takes the source alignment and rejects
implicit conversion from bool. This is to prevent isVolatile here from passing its default
parameter to the source alignment.
Note, changes in future can now be made to codegen. I didn't change anything here, but this
change should enable better memcpy code sequences.

Previously, subprograms contained a metadata reference to the function they
described. Because most clients need to get or set a subprogram for a given
function rather than the other way around, this created unneeded inefficiency.
For example, many passes needed to call the function llvm::makeSubprogramMap()
to build a mapping from functions to subprograms, and the IR linker needed to
fix up function references in a way that caused quadratic complexity in the IR
linking phase of LTO.
This change reverses the direction of the edge by storing the subprogram as
function-level metadata and removing DISubprogram's function field.

with the new pass manager, and no longer relying on analysis groups.
This builds essentially a ground-up new AA infrastructure stack for
LLVM. The core ideas are the same that are used throughout the new pass
manager: type erased polymorphism and direct composition. The design is
as follows:
- FunctionAAResults is a type-erasing alias analysis results aggregation
interface to walk a single query across a range of results from
different alias analyses. Currently this is function-specific as we
always assume that aliasing queries are *within* a function.
- AAResultBase is a CRTP utility providing stub implementations of
various parts of the alias analysis result concept, notably in several
cases in terms of other more general parts of the interface. This can
be used to implement only a narrow part of the interface rather than
the entire interface. This isn't really ideal, this logic should be
hoisted into FunctionAAResults as currently it will cause
a significant amount of redundant work, but it faithfully models the
behavior of the prior infrastructure.
- All the alias analysis passes are ported to be wrapper passes for the
legacy PM and new-style analysis passes for the new PM with a shared
result object. In some cases (most notably CFL), this is an extremely
naive approach that we should revisit when we can specialize for the
new pass manager.
- BasicAA has been restructured to reflect that it is much more
fundamentally a function analysis because it uses dominator trees and
loop info that need to be constructed for each function.
All of the references to getting alias analysis results have been
updated to use the new aggregation interface. All the preservation and
other pass management code has been updated accordingly.
The way the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass works is to detect the
available alias analyses when run, and add them to the results object.
This means that we should be able to continue to respect when various
passes are added to the pipeline, for example adding CFL or adding TBAA
passes should just cause their results to be available and to get folded
into this. The exception to this rule is BasicAA which really needs to
be a function pass due to using dominator trees and loop info. As
a consequence, the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass directly depends on
BasicAA and always includes it in the aggregation.
This has significant implications for preserving analyses. Generally,
most passes shouldn't bother preserving FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass
because rebuilding the results just updates the set of known AA passes.
The exception to this rule are LoopPass instances which need to preserve
all the function analyses that the loop pass manager will end up
needing. This means preserving both BasicAAWrapperPass and the
aggregating FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass.
Now, when preserving an alias analysis, you do so by directly preserving
that analysis. This is only necessary for non-immutable-pass-provided
alias analyses though, and there are only three of interest: BasicAA,
GlobalsAA (formerly GlobalsModRef), and SCEVAA. Usually BasicAA is
preserved when needed because it (like DominatorTree and LoopInfo) is
marked as a CFG-only pass. I've expanded GlobalsAA into the preserved
set everywhere we previously were preserving all of AliasAnalysis, and
I've added SCEVAA in the intersection of that with where we preserve
SCEV itself.
One significant challenge to all of this is that the CGSCC passes were
actually using the alias analysis implementations by taking advantage of
a pretty amazing set of loop holes in the old pass manager's analysis
management code which allowed analysis groups to slide through in many
cases. Moving away from analysis groups makes this problem much more
obvious. To fix it, I've leveraged the flexibility the design of the new
PM components provides to just directly construct the relevant alias
analyses for the relevant functions in the IPO passes that need them.
This is a bit hacky, but should go away with the new pass manager, and
is already in many ways cleaner than the prior state.
Another significant challenge is that various facilities of the old
alias analysis infrastructure just don't fit any more. The most
significant of these is the alias analysis 'counter' pass. That pass
relied on the ability to snoop on AA queries at different points in the
analysis group chain. Instead, I'm planning to build printing
functionality directly into the aggregation layer. I've not included
that in this patch merely to keep it smaller.
Note that all of this needs a nearly complete rewrite of the AA
documentation. I'm planning to do that, but I'd like to make sure the
new design settles, and to flesh out a bit more of what it looks like in
the new pass manager first.

(`isDefinition: true`) to be 'distinct'. Specifically, add an assembler
check, a verifier check, and bitcode upgrading logic to combat testcase
bitrot after the `DIBuilder` change.
While working on the testcases, I realized that
test/Linker/subprogram-linkonce-weak-odr.ll isn't relevant anymore. Its
purpose was to check for a corner case in PR22792 where two subprogram
definitions match exactly and share the same metadata node. The new
verifier check, requiring that subprogram definitions are 'distinct',
precludes that possibility.
I updated almost all the IR with the following script:
git grep -l -E -e '= !DISubprogram\(.* isDefinition: true' |
grep -v test/Bitcode |
xargs sed -i '' -e 's/= \(!DISubprogram(.*, isDefinition: true\)/= distinct \1/'
Likely some variant of would work for out-of-tree testcases.

Since r241097, `DIBuilder` has only created distinct `DICompileUnit`s.
The backend is liable to start relying on that (if it hasn't already),
so make uniquable `DICompileUnit`s illegal and automatically upgrade old
bitcode. This is a nice cleanup, since we can remove an unnecessary
`DenseSet` (and the associated uniquing info) from `LLVMContextImpl`.
Almost all the testcases were updated with this script:
git grep -e '= !DICompileUnit' -l -- test |
grep -v test/Bitcode |
xargs sed -i '' -e 's,= !DICompileUnit,= distinct !DICompileUnit,'
I imagine something similar should work for out-of-tree testcases.
