Before this patch we had
@a = weak global ...
but
@b = alias weak ...
The patch changes aliases to look more like global variables.
Looking at some really old code suggests that the reason was that the old
bison based parser had a reduction for alias linkages and another one for
global variable linkages. Putting the alias first avoided the reduce/reduce
conflict.
The days of the old .ll parser are long gone. The new one parses just "linkage"
and a later check is responsible for deciding if a linkage is valid in a
given context.

This is the first commit in a series that add an @llvm.assume intrinsic which
can be used to provide the optimizer with a condition it may assume to be true
(when the control flow would hit the intrinsic call). Some basic properties are added here:
- llvm.invariant(true) is dead.
- llvm.invariant(false) is unreachable (this directly corresponds to the
documented behavior of MSVC's __assume(0)), so is llvm.invariant(undef).
The intrinsic is tagged as writing arbitrarily, in order to maintain control
dependencies. BasicAA has been updated, however, to return NoModRef for any
particular location-based query so that we don't unnecessarily block code
motion.

In the process of fixing the noalias parameter -> metadata conversion process
that will take place during inlining (which will be committed soon, but not
turned on by default), I have come to realize that the semantics provided by
yesterday's commit are not really what we want. Here's why:
void foo(noalias a, noalias b, noalias c, bool x) {
*q = x ? a : b;
*c = *q;
}
Generically, we know that *c does not alias with *a and with *b (so there is an
'and' in what we know we're not), and we know that *q might be derived from *a
or from *b (so there is an 'or' in what we know that we are). So we do not want
the semantics currently, where any noalias scope matching any alias.scope
causes a NoAlias return. What we want to know is that the noalias scopes form a
superset of the alias.scope list (meaning that all the things we know we're not
is a superset of all of things the other instruction might be).
Making that change, however, introduces a composibility problem. If we inline
once, adding the noalias metadata, and then inline again adding more, and we
append new scopes onto the noalias and alias.scope lists each time. But, this
means that we could change what was a NoAlias result previously into a MayAlias
result because we appended an additional scope onto one of the alias.scope
lists. So, instead of giving scopes the ability to have parents (which I had
borrowed from the TBAA implementation, but seems increasingly unlikely to be
useful in practice), I've given them domains. The subset/superset condition now
applies within each domain independently, and we only need it to hold in one
domain. Each time we inline, we add the new scopes in a new scope domain, and
everything now composes nicely. In addition, this simplifies the
implementation.
llvm-svn: 213948
This commit adds scoped noalias metadata. The primary motivations for this
feature are:
1. To preserve noalias function attribute information when inlining
2. To provide the ability to model block-scope C99 restrict pointers
Neither of these two abilities are added here, only the necessary
infrastructure. In fact, there should be no change to existing functionality,
only the addition of new features. The logic that converts noalias function
parameters into this metadata during inlining will come in a follow-up commit.
What is added here is the ability to generally specify noalias memory-access
sets. Regarding the metadata, alias-analysis scopes are defined similar to TBAA
nodes:
!scope0 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope of foo()" }
!scope1 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 1", metadata !scope0 }
!scope2 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 2", metadata !scope0 }
!scope3 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 2.1", metadata !scope2 }
!scope4 = metadata !{ metadata !"scope 2.2", metadata !scope2 }
Loads and stores can be tagged with an alias-analysis scope, and also, with a
noalias tag for a specific scope:
... = load %ptr1, !alias.scope !{ !scope1 }
... = load %ptr2, !alias.scope !{ !scope1, !scope2 }, !noalias !{ !scope1 }
When evaluating an aliasing query, if one of the instructions is associated
with an alias.scope id that is identical to the noalias scope associated with
the other instruction, or is a descendant (in the scope hierarchy) of the
noalias scope associated with the other instruction, then the two memory
accesses are assumed not to alias.
Note that is the first element of the scope metadata is a string, then it can
be combined accross functions and translation units. The string can be replaced
by a self-reference to create globally unqiue scope identifiers.
[Note: This overview is slightly stylized, since the metadata nodes really need
to just be numbers (!0 instead of !scope0), and the scope lists are also global
unnamed metadata.]
Existing noalias metadata in a callee is "cloned" for use by the inlined code.
This is necessary because the aliasing scopes are unique to each call site
(because of possible control dependencies on the aliasing properties). For
example, consider a function: foo(noalias a, noalias b) { *a = *b; } that gets
inlined into bar() { ... if (...) foo(a1, b1); ... if (...) foo(a2, b2); } --
now just because we know that a1 does not alias with b1 at the first call site,
and a2 does not alias with b2 at the second call site, we cannot let inlining
these functons have the metadata imply that a1 does not alias with b2.
llvm-svn: 213864
We previously supported the align attribute on all (pointer) parameters, but we
only used it for byval parameters. However, it is completely consistent at the
IR level to treat 'align n' on all pointer parameters as an alignment
assumption on the pointer, and now we wll. Specifically, this causes
computeKnownBits to use the align attribute on all pointer parameters, not just
byval parameters. I've also added an explicit parameter attribute test for this
to test/Bitcode/attributes.ll.
And I've updated the LangRef to document the align parameter attribute (as it
turns out, it was not documented at all previously, although the byval
documentation mentioned that it could be used).
There are (at least) two benefits to doing this:
- It allows enhancing alignment based on the pointer alignment after inlining callees.
- It allows simplification of pointer arithmetic.

Convert the operand to int if possible, i.e. if the value is properly

With this little change we can now compute the scaling factor for compressed

because both the X86-disassembler-specific part of tablegen and the assembler

This makes the two intrinsics @llvm.convert.from.f16 and
@llvm.convert.to.f16 accept types other than simple "float". This is
only strictly needed for the truncate operation, since otherwise
double rounding occurs and there's no way to represent the strict IEEE
conversion. However, for symmetry we allow larger types in the extend
too.
During legalization, we can expand an "fp16_to_double" operation into
two extends for convenience, but abort when the truncate isn't legal. A new
libcall is probably needed here.
Even after this commit, various target tweaks are needed to actually use the
extended intrinsics. I've put these into separate commits for clarity, so there
are no actual tests of f64 conversion here.

This commit adds a weak variant of the cmpxchg operation, as described
in C++11. A cmpxchg instruction with this modifier is permitted to
fail to store, even if the comparison indicated it should.
As a result, cmpxchg instructions must return a flag indicating
success in addition to their original iN value loaded. Thus, for
uniformity *all* cmpxchg instructions now return "{ iN, i1 }". The
second flag is 1 when the store succeeded.
At the DAG level, a new ATOMIC_CMP_SWAP_WITH_SUCCESS node has been
added as the natural representation for the new cmpxchg instructions.
It is a strong cmpxchg.
By default this gets Expanded to the existing ATOMIC_CMP_SWAP during
Legalization, so existing backends should see no change in behaviour.
If they wish to deal with the enhanced node instead, they can call
setOperationAction on it. Beware: as a node with 2 results, it cannot
be selected from TableGen.
Currently, no use is made of the extra information provided in this
patch. Test updates are almost entirely adapting the input IR to the
new scheme.
Summary for out of tree users:
------------------------------
+ Legacy Bitcode files are upgraded during read.
+ Legacy assembly IR files will be invalid.
+ Front-ends must adapt to different type for "cmpxchg".
+ Backends should be unaffected by default.

The armv7-windows-itanium environment is nearly identical to the MSVC ABI. It

This adds support for proper VLA emission for this environment. This is
somewhat similar to the handling for __chkstk emission on X86 and the large
stack frame emission for ARM. The invocation style for chkstk is still
controlled via the -mcmodel flag to clang.
Make an explicit note that this is an extension.

* Section association cannot use just the section name as many
sections can have the same name. With this patch, the comdat symbol in
an assoc section is interpreted to mean a symbol in the associated
section and the mapping is discovered from it.
* Comdat symbols were not being set correctly. Instead we were getting
whatever was output first for that section.
A consequence is that associative sections now must use .section to
set the association. Using .linkonce would not work since it is not
possible to change a sections comdat symbol (it is used to decide if
we should create a new section or reuse an existing one).
This includes r210298, which was reverted because it was asserting
on an associated section having the same comdat as the associated
section.

Alias with unnamed_addr were in a strange state. It is stored in GlobalValue,
the language reference talks about "unnamed_addr aliases" but the verifier

It seems natural to allow unnamed_addr in aliases:
* It is a property of how it is accessed, not of the data itself.
* It is perfectly possible to write code that depends on the address
of an alias.
This patch then makes unname_addr legal for aliases. One side effect is that
the syntax changes for a corner case: In globals, unnamed_addr is now printed
before the address space.

This patch changes GlobalAlias to point to an arbitrary ConstantExpr and it is
up to MC (or the system assembler) to decide if that expression is valid or not.
This reduces our ability to diagnose invalid uses and how early we can spot
them, but it also lets us do things like
@test5 = alias inttoptr(i32 sub (i32 ptrtoint (i32* @test2 to i32),
i32 ptrtoint (i32* @bar to i32)) to i32*)
An important implication of this patch is that the notion of aliased global
doesn't exist any more. The alias has to encode the information needed to
access it in its metadata (linkage, visibility, type, etc).
Another consequence to notice is that getSection has to return a "const char *".
It could return a NullTerminatedStringRef if there was such a thing, but when
that was proposed the decision was to just uses "const char*" for that.

This introduces the stack lowering emission of the stack probe function for
Windows on ARM. The stack on Windows on ARM is a dynamically paged stack where
any page allocation which crosses a page boundary of the following guard page
will cause a page fault. This page fault must be handled by the kernel to
ensure that the page is faulted in. If this does not occur and a write access
any memory beyond that, the page fault will go unserviced, resulting in an
abnormal program termination.
The watermark for the stack probe appears to be at 4080 bytes (for
accommodating the stack guard canaries and stack alignment) when SSP is
enabled. Otherwise, the stack probe is emitted on the page size boundary of

This adds back r204781.
Original message:
Aliases are just another name for a position in a file. As such, the
regular symbol resolutions are not applied. For example, given
define void @my_func() {
ret void
}
@my_alias = alias weak void ()* @my_func
@my_alias2 = alias void ()* @my_alias
We produce without this patch:
.weak my_alias
my_alias = my_func
.globl my_alias2
my_alias2 = my_alias
That is, in the resulting ELF file my_alias, my_func and my_alias are
just 3 names pointing to offset 0 of .text. That is *not* the
semantics of IR linking. For example, linking in a
@my_alias = alias void ()* @other_func
would require the strong my_alias to override the weak one and
my_alias2 would end up pointing to other_func.
There is no way to represent that with aliases being just another
name, so the best solution seems to be to just disallow it, converting
a miscompile into an error.

The LangRef warning wasn't formatting the way I intended it to anyway.
Surprisingly inalloca appears to work, even when optimizations are
enabled. We generate very bad code for it, but we can self-host and run
lots of big tests.

After some discussion on IRC, emitting a call to the library function seems
like a better default, since it will move from a compiler internal error to
a linker error, that the user can work around until LLVM is fixed.
I'm also adding a note on the responsibility of the user to confirm that
the cache was cleared on platforms where nothing is done.
llvm-svn: 204806
Implementing the LLVM part of the call to __builtin___clear_cache
which translates into an intrinsic @llvm.clear_cache and is lowered
by each target, either to a call to __clear_cache or nothing at all
incase the caches are unified.
Updating LangRef and adding some tests for the implemented architectures.
Other archs will have to implement the method in case this builtin
has to be compiled for it, since the default behaviour is to bail
unimplemented.
A Clang patch is required for the builtin to be lowered into the
llvm intrinsic. This will be done next.

This reverts commit r204781.
I will follow up to with msan folks to see what is what they
were trying to do with aliases to weak aliases.

This option caused LowerInvoke to generate code using SJLJ-based
exception handling, but there is no code left that interprets the
jmp_buf stack that the resulting code maintained (llvm.sjljeh.jblist).
This option has been obsolete for a while, and replaced by
SjLjEHPrepare.
This leaves the default behaviour of LowerInvoke, which is to convert
invokes to calls.

This is mainly a movement of content around to give place to new content
allowing different people to add bits to it in the right place. There is some
new content, but mostly to fill the gaps left by text movement.
I'm dropping the old syntax documentation as it has the problem of being
quickly outdated by changes and largely unnecessary to people not involved
in creating the language, but using it, which is the whole point of the
documentation.

This allows us to catch more opportunities for ODR-based type uniquing
during LTO.
Paired commit with CFE which updates some testcases to verify the new
DIBuilder behavior.

These linkages were introduced some time ago, but it was never very
clear what exactly their semantics were or what they should be used
for. Some investigation found these uses:
* utf-16 strings in clang.
* non-unnamed_addr strings produced by the sanitizers.
It turns out they were just working around a more fundamental problem.
For some sections a MachO linker needs a symbol in order to split the
section into atoms, and llvm had no idea that was the case. I fixed
that in r201700 and it is now safe to use the private linkage. When
the object ends up in a section that requires symbols, llvm will use a
'l' prefix instead of a 'L' prefix and things just work.
With that, these linkages were already dead, but there was a potential
future user in the objc metadata information. I am still looking at
CGObjcMac.cpp, but at this point I am convinced that linker_private
and linker_private_weak are not what they need.
The objc uses are currently split in
* Regular symbols (no '\01' prefix). LLVM already directly provides
whatever semantics they need.
* Uses of a private name (start with "\01L" or "\01l") and private
linkage. We can drop the "\01L" and "\01l" prefixes as soon as llvm
agrees with clang on L being ok or not for a given section. I have two
patches in code review for this.
* Uses of private name and weak linkage.
The last case is the one that one could think would fit one of these
linkages. That is not the case. The semantics are
* the linker will merge these symbol by *name*.
* the linker will hide them in the final DSO.
Given that the merging is done by name, any of the private (or
internal) linkages would be a bad match. They allow llvm to rename the
symbols, and that is really not what we want. From the llvm point of
view, these objects should really be (linkonce|weak)(_odr)?.
For now, just keeping the "\01l" prefix is probably the best for these
symbols. If we one day want to have a more direct support in llvm,
IMHO what we should add is not a linkage, it is just a hidden_symbol
attribute. It would be applicable to multiple linkages. For example,
on weak it would produce the current behavior we have for objc
metadata. On internal, it would be equivalent to private (and we
should then remove private).

As an example that was not actually being used, it suffered from a slow bitrot.
The two main issues with it were that it had no cmake support and
included a copy of the autoconf directory. The reality is that
autoconf is not easily composable. The lack of composabilty is why we
have clang options in llvm's configure. Suggesting that users include
a copy of autoconf/ in their projects seems a bad idea.
We are also in the process of switching to cmake, so pushing autoconf
to new project is probably not what we want.
llvm-svn: 203728
On ELF and COFF an alias is just another name for a position in the file.
There is no way to refer to a position in another file, so an alias to
undefined is meaningless.
MachO currently doesn't support aliases. The spec has a N_INDR, which when
implemented will have a different set of restrictions. Adding support for
it shouldn't be harder than any other IR extension.
For now, having the IR represent what is actually possible with current
tools makes it easier to fix the design of GlobalAlias.
llvm-svn: 203705
The syntax for "cmpxchg" should now look something like:
cmpxchg i32* %addr, i32 42, i32 3 acquire monotonic
where the second ordering argument gives the required semantics in the case
that no exchange takes place. It should be no stronger than the first ordering
constraint and cannot be either "release" or "acq_rel" (since no store will
have taken place).

The official specifications state the name to be ARMNT (as per the Microsoft
Portable Executable and Common Object Format Specification v8.3).

The grammar for LLVM IR is not well specified in any document but seems
to obey the following rules:
- Attributes which have parenthesized arguments are never preceded by
commas. This form of attribute is the only one which ever has
optional arguments. However, not all of these attributes support
optional arguments: 'thread_local' supports an optional argument but
'addrspace' does not. Interestingly, 'addrspace' is documented as
being a "qualifier". What constitutes a qualifier? I cannot find a
definition.
- Some attributes use a space between the keyword and the value.
Examples of this form are 'align' and 'section'. These are always
preceded by a comma.
- Otherwise, the attribute has no argument. These attributes do not
have a preceding comma.
Sometimes an attribute goes before the instruction, between the
instruction and it's type, or after it's type. 'atomicrmw' has
'volatile' between the instruction and the type while 'call' has 'tail'
preceding the instruction.
With all this in mind, it seems most consistent for 'inalloca' on an
'inalloca' instruction to occur before between the instruction and the
type. Unlike the current formulation, there would be no preceding
comma. The combination 'alloca inalloca' doesn't look particularly
appetizing, perhaps a better spelling of 'inalloca' is down the road.
llvm-svn: 203376
The following changes have been applied:
- Removed 'align 4'. We can simplify this away, as it does not provide useful
information in the example.
- Use named instructions instead of '%0'. This is nicer, but more importantly
this makes the IR valid. Before we had two assignments to %0 in a single
example.
- Add a missing branch instruction to make the loop structure clear.
- Move one access into outer.for.body to make it not look that empty.
- The statments that are only in the outer loop body should not reference the
inner loop metadata, but only the outer loop. Only statements in both loops
should reference both surrounding loops.
- Rename the array indexes to make them all independent. Before there were
identical array indexes in the inner and the outer loop. We want to
avoid this special case as it may lead to confusion.

The correct name of the type in LLVM assembly is "x86_mmx". Also remove
the reST label "t_x86mmx" because it was unused anyway.

directly care about the Value class (it is templated so that the key can
be any arbitrary Value subclass), it is in fact concretely tied to the
Value class through the ValueHandle's CallbackVH interface which relies
on the key type being some Value subclass to establish the value handle
chain.
Ironically, the unittest is already in the right library.

It's easy to copy unintentionally when using 'auto', particularly inside
range-based for loops. Best practise is to use 'const&' unless there's
a good reason not to.

The current coding standards restrict the use of struct to PODs, but no
one has been following them. This patch updates the standards to
clarify when structs are dangerous and describe common practice in LLVM.

Chris during review of my lambda additions, and something I strongly
agree with.

about a few constructs in C++11 that are worth starting off in
a consistent manner within the codebase.
This will be matched with a change to clang-format's LLVM style which
will switch the options to support C++11 and use these conventions.
