Long ago, the poll insertion code assumed that the insertion site was a terminator. As a result, the entry selection code would split a basic block to ensure it could pass a terminator. The insertion code was updated quite a while ago - possibly before it ever landed upstream - but the now redundant work was never removed.
While I'm at it, remove a comment which doesn't apply to the upstreamed code.

This change adds a new GC strategy for supporting the CoreCLR runtime.
This strategy is currently identical to Statepoint-example GC,
but is necessary for several upcoming changes specific to CoreCLR, such as:
1. Base-pointers not explicitly reported for interior pointers
2. Different format for stack-map encoding
3. Location of Safe-point polls: polls are only needed before loop-back edges and before tail-calls (not needed at function-entry)
4. Runtime specific handshake between calls to managed/unmanaged functions.
llvm-svn: 237753
We were special casing a handful of intrinsics as not needing a safepoint before them. After running into another valid case - memset - I took a closer look and realized that almost no intrinsics need to have a safepoint poll before them. Restructure the code to make that apparent so that we stop hitting these bugs. The only intrinsics which need a safepoint poll before them are ones which can run arbitrary code.

Summary: When PlaceSafepoints pass replaces old return result with gc_result from statepoint, it asserts that gc_result can not have preceding phis in its parent block. This is only true on invoke statepoint, which terminates the block and puts its result at the beginning of the normal successor block. Call statepoint does not terminate the block and thus its result is in the same block with it. There should be no restriction on whether there are phis or not.

Transfer the calling convention from the invoke being replaced by
PlaceStatepoints to the new invoke to gc.statepoint created. Add a test
case that would have caught this issue.

rL236672 would generate all invoke statepoints with deopt args set to a
list containing the single element "0", instead of an empty list.
Also add a test case that would have caught this.
llvm-svn: 237413
Summary:
This patch teaches the PlaceSafepoints pass about two `CallSite`
function attributes:
* "statepoint-id": if the string value of this attribute can be parsed
as an integer, then it is propagated to the ID parameter of the
statepoint created.
* "statepoint-num-patch-bytes": if the string value of this attribute
can be parsed as an integer, then it is propagated to the `num patch
bytes` parameter of the statepoint created.
This change intentionally does not assert on a malformed value for these
attributes, given that they're not "official" attributes.

Reduce recalculation of the dominator tree by identifying all sites that will need a safepoint poll before doing any of the insertion. This allows us to invalidate the dominator info once, rather than once per safepoint poll inserted.
While I'm at it, update findLocationForEntrySafepoint to properly update the dom tree now that the interface has been made easy. When first written, it wasn't per comment in the code.

Summary:
This change adds two new parameters to the statepoint intrinsic, `i64 id`
and `i32 num_patch_bytes`. `id` gets propagated to the ID field
in the generated StackMap section. If the `num_patch_bytes` is
non-zero then the statepoint is lowered to `num_patch_bytes` bytes of
nops instead of a call (the spill and reload code remains unchanged).
A non-zero `num_patch_bytes` is useful in situations where a language
runtime requires complete control over how a call is lowered.
This change brings statepoints one step closer to patchpoints. With
some additional work (that is not part of this patch) it should be
possible to get rid of `TargetOpcode::STATEPOINT` altogether.
PlaceSafepoints generates `statepoint` wrappers with `id` set to
`0xABCDEF00` (the old default value for the ID reported in the stackmap)
and `num_patch_bytes` set to `0`. This can be made more sophisticated
later.

1) Remove a variable shadow by converting the outer loop to a range for loop. We never really used the 'i' variable which was being shadowed.
2) Reduce DominatorTree recalculations by passing the DT to SplitEdge.

The pass doesn't actually modify the module outside of the function being processed. The only confusing piece is that it both inserts calls and then inlines the resulting calls. Given that, it definitely invalidates module level analysis results, but many FunctionPasses do that.

Switch from using a LoopPass to using a FunctionPass for the internal helper analysis pass. The next step is going to be to make this a true analysis pass which is required by the PlaceSafepoints pass itself.
p.s. The interesting semantic part here is that we're changing the iteration order over the loops. It shouldn't matter, but that's the reason to separate this into it's own distinct patch.

I folded the check for the flag -verify-dom-info into the only caller
where I think it is supposed to be checked: verifyAnalysis. (The idea
of the flag is to enable this expensive verification in
verifyPreservedAnalysis.)
I'm assuming that when manually scheduling the verification pass
with -passes=verify<domtree>, we do want to perform the verification.

llvm.frameescape() intrinsic is not a real call. The intrinsic can only exist in the entry block. Inserting a gc.statepoint() before llvm.frameescape() may split the entry block, and push the intrinsic out of the entry block.

CallSite roughly behaves as a common base CallInst and InvokeInst. Bring
the behavior closer to that model by making upcasts explicit. Downcasts
remain implicit and work as before.
Following dyn_cast as a mental model checking whether a Value *V isa
CallSite now looks like this:
if (auto CS = CallSite(V)) // think dyn_cast
instead of:
if (CallSite CS = V)
This is an extra token but I think it is slightly clearer. Making the
ctor explicit has the advantage of not accidentally creating nullptr
CallSites, e.g. when you pass a Value * to a function taking a CallSite
argument.
llvm-svn: 234601
Use the IRBuilder helpers for gc.statepoint and gc.result, instead of
coding the construction by hand. Note that the gc.statepoint IRBuilder
handles only CallInst, not InvokeInst; retain that part of hand-coding.

Previously, this pass ran over every function in the Module if added to the pass order. With this change, it runs only over those with a GC attribute where the GC explicitly opts in. A GC can also choose which of entry safepoint polls, backedge safepoint polls, and call safepoints it wants. I hope to get these exposed as checks on the GCStrategy at some point, but for now, the checks are manual string comparisons.
llvm-svn: 230097
These are internal options. I need to go through, evaluate which are worth keeping and which not. Many of them should probably be renamed as well. Until I have time to do that, we can at least stop poluting the standard opt -help output.

LLVM's include tree and the use of using declarations to hide the
'legacy' namespace for the old pass manager.
This undoes the primary modules-hostile change I made to keep
out-of-tree targets building. I sent an email inquiring about whether
this would be reasonable to do at this phase and people seemed fine with
it, so making it a reality. This should allow us to start bootstrapping
with modules to a certain extent along with making it easier to mix and
match headers in general.
The updates to any code for users of LLVM are very mechanical. Switch
from including "llvm/PassManager.h" to "llvm/IR/LegacyPassManager.h".
Qualify the types which now produce compile errors with "legacy::". The
most common ones are "PassManager", "PassManagerBase", and
"FunctionPassManager".

I realized that my early fix for this was overly complicated. Rather than scatter checks around in a bunch of places, just exit early when we visit the poll function itself.
Thinking about it a bit, the whole inlining mechanism used with gc.safepoint_poll could probably be cleaned up a bit. Originally, poll insertion was fused with gc relocation rewriting. It might be worth going back to see if we can simplify the chain of events now that these two are seperated. As one thought, maybe it makes sense to rewrite calls inside the helper function before inlining it to the many callers. This would require us to visit the poll function before any other functions though..
llvm-svn: 228634
Summary:
It's important that our users immediately know what gc.safepoint_poll
is. Also fix the style of the declaration of CreateGCStatepoint, in
preparation for another change that will wrap it.

This is just adding really simple tests which should have been part of the original submission. When doing so, I discovered that I'd mistakenly removed required pieces when preparing the patch for upstream submission. I fixed two such bugs in this submission.

This pass is responsible for figuring out where to place call safepoints and safepoint polls. It doesn't actually make the relocations explicit; that's the job of the RewriteStatepointsForGC pass (http://reviews.llvm.org/D6975).
Note that this code is not yet finalized. Its moving in tree for incremental development, but further cleanup is needed and will happen over the next few days. It is not yet part of the standard pass order.
Planned changes in the near future:
- I plan on restructuring the statepoint rewrite to use the functions add to the IRBuilder a while back.
- In the current pass, the function "gc.safepoint_poll" is treated specially but is not an intrinsic. I plan to make identifying the poll function a property of the GCStrategy at some point in the near future.
- As follow on patches, I will be separating a collection of test cases we have out of tree and submitting them upstream.
- It's not explicit in the code, but these two patches are introducing a new state for a statepoint which looks a lot like a patchpoint. There's no a transient form which doesn't yet have the relocations explicitly represented, but does prevent reordering of memory operations. Once this is in, I need to update actually make this explicit by reserving the 'unused' argument of the statepoint as a flag, updating the docs, and making the code explicitly check for such a thing. This wasn't really planned, but once I split the two passes - which was done for other reasons - the intermediate state fell out. Just reminds us once again that we need to merge statepoints and patchpoints at some point in the not that distant future.
Future directions planned:
- Identifying more cases where a backedge safepoint isn't required to ensure timely execution of a safepoint poll.
- Tweaking the insertion process to generate easier to optimize IR. (For example, investigating making SplitBackedge) the default.
- Adding opt-in flags for a GCStrategy to use this pass. Once done, add this pass to the actual pass ordering.
