Tim Northover b7141207a4 Reapply: IR: add optional type to 'byval' function parameters
When we switch to opaque pointer types we will need some way to describe
how many bytes a 'byval' parameter should occupy on the stack. This adds
a (for now) optional extra type parameter.

If present, the type must match the pointee type of the argument.

The original commit did not remap byval types when linking modules, which broke
LTO. This version fixes that.

Note to front-end maintainers: if this causes test failures, it's probably
because the "byval" attribute is printed after attributes without any parameter
after this change.

Fangrui Song f4dfd63c74 [IR] Disallow llvm.global_ctors and llvm.global_dtors of the 2-field form in textual format
The 3-field form was introduced by D3499 in 2014 and the legacy 2-field
form was planned to be removed in LLVM 4.0

For the textual format, this patch migrates the existing 2-field form to
use the 3-field form and deletes the compatibility code.
test/Verifier/global-ctors-2.ll checks we have a friendly error message.

For bitcode, lib/IR/AutoUpgrade UpgradeGlobalVariables will upgrade the
2-field form (add i8* null as the third field).

Matt Arsenault caf1316f71 IR: Add immarg attribute
This indicates an intrinsic parameter is required to be a constant,
and should not be replaced with a non-constant value.

Add the attribute to all AMDGPU and generic intrinsics that comments
indicate it should apply to. I scanned other target intrinsics, but I
don't see any obvious comments indicating which arguments are intended
to be only immediates.

This breaks one questionable testcase for the autoupgrade. I'm unclear
on whether the autoupgrade is supposed to really handle declarations
which were never valid. The verifier fails because the attributes now
refer to a parameter past the end of the argument list.

Clement Courbet 8e16d73346 [SelectionDAG] Allow the user to specify a memeq function.
Summary:
Right now, when we encounter a string equality check,
e.g. `if (memcmp(a, b, s) == 0)`, we try to expand to a comparison if `s` is a
small compile-time constant, and fall back on calling `memcmp()` else.

This is sub-optimal because memcmp has to compute much more than
equality.

This patch replaces `memcmp(a, b, s) == 0` by `bcmp(a, b, s) == 0` on platforms
that support `bcmp`.

`bcmp` can be made much more efficient than `memcmp` because equality
compare is trivially parallel while lexicographic ordering has a chain
dependency.

Max Moroz b2091c930b [llvm-cov] Add lcov tracefile export format.
Summary:
lcov tracefiles are used by various coverage reporting tools and build
systems (e.g., Bazel). It is a simple text-based format to parse and
more convenient to use than the JSON export format, which needs
additional processing to map regions/segments back to line numbers.

It's a little unfortunate that "text" format is now overloaded to refer
specifically to JSON for export, but I wanted to avoid making any
breaking changes to the UI of the llvm-cov tool at this time.

Sanjay Patel 3d453ad711 [DAGCombine] (float)((int) f) --> ftrunc (PR36617)
This was originally committed at rL328921 and reverted at rL329920 to
investigate failures in Chrome. This time I've added to the ReleaseNotes
to warn users of the potential of exposing UB and let me repeat that
here for more exposure:

  Optimization of floating-point casts is improved. This may cause surprising
  results for code that is relying on undefined behavior. Code sanitizers can
  be used to detect affected patterns such as this:

    int main() {
      float x = 4294967296.0f;
      x = (float)((int)x);
      printf("junk in the ftrunc: %f\n", x);
      return 0;
    }

    $ clang -O1 ftrunc.c -fsanitize=undefined ; ./a.out
    ftrunc.c:5:15: runtime error: 4.29497e+09 is outside the range of 
                   representable values of type 'int'
    junk in the ftrunc: 0.000000


Original commit message:

fptosi / fptoui round towards zero, and that's the same behavior as ISD::FTRUNC,
so replace a pair of casts with the equivalent node. We don't have to account for
special cases (NaN, INF) because out-of-range casts are undefined.

Reid Kleckner f8b51c5f90 [IR] Avoid the need to prefix MS C++ symbols with '\01'
Now the Windows mangling modes ('w' and 'x') do not do any mangling for
symbols starting with '?'. This means that clang can stop adding the
hideous '\01' leading escape. This means LLVM debug logs are less likely
to contain ASCII escape characters and it will be easier to copy and
paste MS symbol names from IR.

Finally.

For non-Windows platforms, names starting with '?' still get IR
mangling, so once clang stops escaping MS C++ names, we will get extra
'_' prefixing on MachO. That's fine, since it is currently impossible to
construct a triple that uses the MS C++ ABI in clang and emits macho
object files.

Vedant Kumar 195dfd10a6 [Debugify] Add a pass to test debug info preservation
The Debugify pass synthesizes debug info for IR. It's paired with a
CheckDebugify pass which determines how much of the original debug info
is preserved. These passes make it easier to create targeted tests for
debug info preservation.

Here is the Debugify algorithm:

  NextLine = 1
  for (Instruction &I : M)
    attach DebugLoc(NextLine++) to I

  NextVar = 1
  for (Instruction &I : M)
    if (canAttachDebugValue(I))
      attach dbg.value(NextVar++) to I

The CheckDebugify pass expects contiguous ranges of DILocations and
DILocalVariables. If it fails to find all of the expected debug info, it
prints a specific error to stderr which can be FileChecked.

This was discussed on llvm-dev in the thread:
"Passes to add/validate synthetic debug info"
