Summary:
If a function needs to allocate both callee-save stack memory and local
stack memory, we currently decrement/increment the SP in two steps:
first for the callee-save area, and then for the local stack area. This
changes the code to allocate them both at once at the very beginning/end
of the function. This has two benefits:
1) there is one fewer sub/add micro-op in the prologue/epilogue
2) the stack adjustment instructions act as a scheduling barrier, so
moving them to the very beginning/end of the function increases post-RA
scheduler's ability to move instructions (that only depend on argument
registers) before any of the callee-save stores
This change can cause an increase in instructions if the original local
stack SP decrement could be folded into the first store to the stack.
This occurs when the first local stack store is to stack offset 0. In
this case we are trading off one more sub instruction for one fewer sub
micro-op (along with benefits (2) and (3) above).

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.

that updates LLVM IR testcases to the new format.

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.
Since this is an IR change, a bitcode upgrade has been provided.
Fixes PR23367. An upgrade script for textual IR for out-of-tree clients is
attached to the PR.

Summary:
This review is related to another review request http://reviews.llvm.org/D11268, does the same and merely fixes a couple of issues with it.
D11268 is quite old and has merge conflicts against the current trunk.
This request
- rebases D11268 onto the new trunk;
- resolves the merge conflicts;
- fixes the prologue_end tests, which do not pass due to the subprogram definitions not marked as distinct.
