a tail call
This reapplies the patch in https://reviews.llvm.org/rG1f5b471b8bf4,
which was reverted because it was causing crashes.
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1061289#c2
Check that HasSafePathToCall is true before checking the call is a tail
call.
Original commit message:
Previosly ARC optimizer removed the autoreleaseRV/retainRV pair in the
following code, which caused the object returned by @something to be
placed in the autorelease pool because the call to @something isn't a
tail call:
```
%call = call i8* @something(...)
%2 = call i8* @objc_retainAutoreleasedReturnValue(i8* %call)
%3 = call i8* @objc_autoreleaseReturnValue(i8* %2)
ret i8* %3
```
Fix the bug by checking whether @something is a tail call.

As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.

OptimizeAutoreleaseRVCall skips optimizing llvm.objc.autoreleaseReturnValue if it
sees a user which is llvm.objc.retainAutoreleasedReturnValue, and if they have
equivalent arguments (either identical or equivalent PHIs). It then assumes that
ObjCARCOpt::OptimizeRetainRVCall will optimize the pair instead.
Trouble is, ObjCARCOpt::OptimizeRetainRVCall doesn't know about equivalent PHIs
so optimizes in a different way and we are left with an unoptimized llvm.objc.autoreleaseReturnValue.
This teaches ObjCARCOpt::OptimizeRetainRVCall to also understand PHI equivalence.

The caller to EraseInstruction had this conditional:
// ARC calls with null are no-ops. Delete them.
if (IsNullOrUndef(Arg))
but the assert inside EraseInstruction only allowed ConstantPointerNull and not
undef or bitcasts.
This adds support for both of these cases.

We're moving ARC optimisation and ARC emission in clang away from runtime methods
and towards intrinsics. This is the part which actually uses the intrinsics in the ARC
optimizer when both analyzing the existing calls and emitting new ones.

to @objc_autorelease if its operand is a PHI and the PHI has an
equivalent value that is used by a return instruction.
For example, ARC optimizer shouldn't replace the call in the following
example, as doing so breaks the AutoreleaseRV/RetainRV optimization:
%v1 = bitcast i32* %v0 to i8*
br label %bb3
bb2:
%v3 = bitcast i32* %v2 to i8*
br label %bb3
bb3:
%p = phi i8* [ %v1, %bb1 ], [ %v3, %bb2 ]
%retval = phi i32* [ %v0, %bb1 ], [ %v2, %bb2 ] ; equivalent to %p
%v4 = tail call i8* @objc_autoreleaseReturnValue(i8* %p)
ret i32* %retval
Also, make sure ObjCARCContract replaces @objc_autoreleaseReturnValue's
operand uses with its value so that the call gets tail-called.

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).

Turning retains into retainRV calls disrupts the data flow analysis in
ObjCARCOpts. Thus we move it as late as we can by moving it into
ObjCARCContract.
We leave in the conversion from retainRV -> retain in ObjCARCOpt since
it enables the dataflow analysis.

The semantics of ARC implies that a pointer passed into an objc_autorelease
must live until some point (potentially down the stack) where an
autorelease pool is popped. On the other hand, an
objc_autoreleaseReturnValue just signifies that the object must live
until the end of the given function at least.
Thus objc_autorelease is stronger than objc_autoreleaseReturnValue in
terms of the semantics of ARC* implying that performing the given
strength reduction without any knowledge of how this relates to
the autorelease pool pop that is further up the stack violates the
semantics of ARC.
*Even though objc_autoreleaseReturnValue if you know that no RV
optimization will occur is more computationally expensive.

Listing all of the attributes for the callee of a call/invoke instruction is way
too much and makes the IR unreadable. Use references to attributes instead.
llvm-svn: 175877
The reason that this occurs is that tail calling objc_autorelease eventually
tail calls -[NSObject autorelease] which supports fast autorelease. This can
cause us to violate the semantic gaurantees of __autoreleasing variables that
assignment to an __autoreleasing variables always yields an object that is
placed into the innermost autorelease pool.
The fix included in this patch works by:
1. In the peephole optimization function OptimizeIndividualFunctions, always
remove tail call from objc_autorelease.
2. Whenever we convert to/from an objc_autorelease, set/unset the tail call
keyword as appropriate.
*NOTE* I also handled the case where objc_autorelease is converted in
OptimizeReturns to an autoreleaseRV which still violates the ARC semantics. I
will be removing that in a later patch and I wanted to make sure that the tree
is in a consistent state vis-a-vis ARC always.
Additionally some test cases are provided and all tests that have tail call marked
objc_autorelease keywords have been modified so that tail call has been removed.
*NOTE* One test fails due to a separate bug that I am going to commit soon. Thus
I marked the check line TMP: instead of CHECK: so make check does not fail.
