The first variant contains all current transformations except
transforming switches into lookup tables. The second variant
contains all current transformations.
The switch-to-lookup-table conversion results in code that is more
difficult to analyze and optimize by other passes. Most importantly,
it can inhibit Dead Code Elimination. As such it is often beneficial to
only apply this transformation very late. A common example is inlining,
which can often result in range restrictions for the switch expression.

This is a safeguard against data loss if the user specifies a directory

Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D31109
llvm-svn: 298271
After the call to sys::fs::exists succeeds, indicating a cache hit, we call
AddFile and the client will open the file using the supplied path. If the
client is using cache pruning, there is a potential race between the pruner
and the client. To avoid this, change the caching API so that it provides
a MemoryBuffer to the client, and have clients use that MemoryBuffer where
possible.
This scheme won't work with the gold plugin because the plugin API expects a
file path. So we have the gold plugin use the buffer identifier as a path and
live with the race for now. (Note that the gold plugin isn't actually affected
by the problem at the moment because it doesn't support cache pruning.)
This effectively reverts r279883 modulo the change to use the existing path
in the gold plugin.

Summary:
In a .symver assembler directive like:
.symver name, name2@@nodename
"name2@@nodename" should get the same symbol binding as "name".
While the ELF object writer is updating the symbol binding for .symver
aliases before emitting the object file, not doing so when the module
inline assembly is handled by the RecordStreamer is causing the wrong
behavior in *LTO mode.
E.g. when "name" is global, "name2@@nodename" must also be marked as
global. Otherwise, the symbol is skipped when iterating over the LTO
InputFile symbols (InputFile::Symbol::shouldSkip). So, for example,
when performing any *LTO via the gold-plugin, the versioned symbol
definition is not recorded by the plugin and passed back to the
linker. If the object was in an archive, and there were no other symbols
needed from that object, the object would not be included in the final
link and references to the versioned symbol are undefined.
The llvm-lto2 tests added will give an error about an unused symbol
resolution without the fix.

Summary:
The LibFunc::Func enum holds enumerators named for libc functions.
Unfortunately, there are real situations, including libc implementations, where
function names are actually macros (musl uses "#define fopen64 fopen", for
example; any other transitively visible macro would have similar effects).
Strictly speaking, a conforming C++ Standard Library should provide any such
macros as functions instead (via <cstdio>). However, there are some "library"
functions which are not part of the standard, and thus not subject to this
rule (fopen64, for example). So, in order to be both portable and consistent,
the enum should not use the bare function names.
The old enum naming used a namespace LibFunc and an enum Func, with bare
enumerators. This patch changes LibFunc to be an enum with enumerators prefixed
with "LibFFunc_". (Unfortunately, a scoped enum is not sufficient to override
macros.)
There are additional changes required in clang.

the latter to the Transforms library.
While the loop PM uses an analysis to form the IR units, the current
plan is to have the PM itself establish and enforce both loop simplified
form and LCSSA. This would be a layering violation in the analysis
library.
Fundamentally, the idea behind the loop PM is to *transform* loops in
addition to running passes over them, so it really seemed like the most
natural place to sink this was into the transforms library.
We can't just move *everything* because we also have loop analyses that
rely on a subset of the invariants. So this patch splits the the loop
infrastructure into the analysis management that has to be part of the
analysis library, and the transform-aware pass manager.
This also required splitting the loop analyses' printer passes out to
the transforms library, which makes sense to me as running these will
transform the code into LCSSA in theory.
I haven't split the unittest though because testing one component
without the other seems nearly intractable.

- Reduction of compile time: we don't import these functions anywhere

When reading the metadata bitcode, create a type declaration when

when the type ODR map contains a definition for the same composite type
because it was used in the importing module (buildODRType will
automatically use the existing definition and not create a type
declaration).
For Chromium built with -g2, this reduces the aggregate size of the
generated native object files by 66% (from 31G to 10G). It reduced
the time through the ThinLTO link and backend phases by about 20% on

As discussed on mailing list, for ThinLTO importing we don't need

macros, retained types lists. Also only import local scoped imported
entities. Since we don't currently import any global variables,
we also don't need to import the list of global variables (added an
assert to verify none are being imported).
This is being done by pre-populating the value map entries to map
the unneeded metadata to nullptr. For the imported entities, we can
simply replace the source module's list with a new list containing
only those needed imported entities. This is done in the IRLinker
constructor so that value mapping automatically does the desired
mapping.

llvm-svn: 287206
Summary:
We have always speculatively promoted all renamable local values
(except const non-address taken variables) for both the exporting
and importing module. We would then internalize them back based on
the ThinLink results if they weren't actually exported. This is
inefficient, and results in unnecessary renames. It also meant we
had to check the non-renamability of a value in the summary, which
was already checked during function importing analysis in the ThinLink.
Made renameModuleForThinLTO (which does the promotion/renaming) instead
use the index when exporting, to avoid unnecessary renames/promotions.
For importing modules, we can simply promoted all values as any local
we import by definition is exported and needs promotion.
This required changes to the method used by the FunctionImport pass
(only invoked from 'opt' for testing) and when invoked from llvm-link,
since neither does a ThinLink. We simply conservatively mark all locals
in the index as promoted, which preserves the current aggressive
promotion behavior.
I also needed to change an llvm-lto based test where we had previously
been aggressively promoting values that weren't importable (aliasees),
but now will not promote.

Unique ownership is just one possible ownership pattern for the memory buffer
underlying the bitcode reader. In practice, as this patch shows, ownership can
often reside at a higher level. With the upcoming change to allow multiple
modules in a single bitcode file, it will no longer be appropriate for
modules to generally have unique ownership of their memory buffer.
The C API exposes the ownership relation via the LLVMGetBitcodeModuleInContext
and LLVMGetBitcodeModuleInContext2 functions, so we still need some way for
the module to own the memory buffer. This patch does so by adding an owned
memory buffer field to Module, and using it in a few other places where it
is convenient.

In an IR symbol table I would expect the comdats to be represented as:

InputFile:

This patch improves thinlto importer
by importing 3x larger functions that are called from hot block.
I compared performance with the trunk on spec, and there
were about 2% on povray and 3.33% on milc. These results seems
to be consistant and match the results Teresa got with her simple
heuristic. Some benchmarks got slower but I think they are just
noisy (mcf, xalancbmki, omnetpp)- running the benchmarks again with
more iterations to confirm. Geomean of all benchmarks including the noisy ones
were about +0.02%.
I see much better improvement on google branch with Easwaran patch
for pgo callsite inlining (the inliner actually inline those big functions)
Over all I see +0.5% improvement, and I get +8.65% on povray.
So I guess we will see much bigger change when Easwaran patch will land
(it depends on new pass manager), but it is still worth putting this to trunk
before it.
Implementation details changes:
- Removed CallsiteCount.
- ProfileCount got replaced by Hotness
- hot-import-multiplier is set to 3.0 for now,
didn't have time to tune it up, but I see that we get most of the interesting
functions with 3, so there is no much performance difference with higher, and
binary size doesn't grow as much as with 10.0.

With the new LTO API in r278338, we stopped emitting the individual
index files and imports files for some modules in the distributed backend
case (thinlto-index-only plugin option).
Specifically, this is when the linker decides not to include a module in the
link, because it was in an archive library and did not have a strong
reference to it. Not creating the expected output files makes the
distributed build system implementation more difficult, in terms of
checking for the expected outputs of the thin link, and scheduling the
backend jobs. To address this, the gold-plugin will write dummy empty
.thinlto.bc and .imports files for modules not included in the link
(which LTO never sees).
Augmented a gold v1.12+ test, since that version of gold has the handling
for notifying on modules not being included in the link.
