Dan Gohman 2140a74979 Eliminate the restriction that the array size in an alloca must be i32.
This will help reduce the amount of casting required on 64-bit targets.

mike-m e08af303a6 Overhauled llvm/clang docs builds. Closes PR6613.
NOTE: 2nd part changeset for cfe trunk to follow.

*** PRE-PATCH ISSUES ADDRESSED

- clang api docs fail build from objdir
- clang/llvm api docs collide in install PREFIX/
- clang/llvm main docs collide in install
- clang/llvm main docs have full of hard coded destination
  assumptions and make use of absolute root in static html files;
  namely CommandGuide tools hard codes a website destination
  for cross references and some html cross references assume
  website root paths

*** IMPROVEMENTS

- bumped Doxygen from 1.4.x -> 1.6.3
- splits llvm/clang docs into 'main' and 'api' (doxygen) build trees
- provide consistent, reliable doc builds for both main+api docs
- support buid vs. install vs. website intentions
- support objdir builds
- document targets with 'make help'
- correct clean and uninstall operations
- use recursive dir delete only where absolutely necessary
- added call function fn.RMRF which safeguards against botched 'rm -rf';
  if any target (or any variable is evaluated) which attempts
  to remove any dirs which match a hard-coded 'safelist', a verbose
  error will be printed and make will error-stop.

rigorous than the description it replaces.

Dan Gohman ffc9a6b4ac Add an initial description of a new concept: trap values, and change
the definition of the nsw and nuw flags to make use of it.

nsw was introduced to help optimizers answer yes to the following:

  // Can we change i from i32 to i64 to eliminate the cast inside the loop?
  for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) A[i] *= 0.1;

  // Can we assume that this loop will eventually terminate?
  for (int i = 0; i <= n; ++i) A[i] *= 0.1;

In its current form, it isn't truly sufficient for either.

In the first case, if the increment overflows, it'll still have some
valid i32 value; sign-extending it will produce a value which is 33
homogeneous sign bits trailed by 31 independent undef bits. If i is
promoted to i64, it won't have those same values when it reaches that
point. (The compiler could recover here by reasoning about how i is
used by the load, but that's a lot more complicated and isn't always
possible.)

In the second case, there is no value for i which will be greater than
n, so having the increment return undef on overflow doesn't help.

Trap values are a formalization of some existing concepts that we have
about LLVM IR, and give the optimizers a better basis for answering yes
to both questions above.

Jakob Stoklund Olesen 74bb06c0f0 Reintroduce the InlineHint function attribute.
This time it's for real! I am going to hook this up in the frontends as well.

The inliner has some experimental heuristics for dealing with the inline hint.
When given a -respect-inlinehint option, functions marked with the inline
keyword are given a threshold just above the default for -O3.

We need some experiments to determine if that is the right thing to do.

Dan Gohman 2de532c132 Clarify a few things in the inbounds description.
Describing inbounds in terms of infinitely precise arithmetic prohibits
the assumption address-space-sized integer arithmetic will wrap, with
a wrapped-around value landing within the same object.

Bill Wendling a3c6f6bffa Add plumbing for the `linker_private' linkage type. This type is meant for
"private" symbols which the assember shouldn't strip, but which the linker may
remove after evaluation. This is mostly useful for Objective-C metadata.

This is plumbing, so we don't have a use of it yet. More to come, etc.

to generate rlwimi/rlwinm etc).

Dan Gohman a5b9645c4b Split the Add, Sub, and Mul instruction opcodes into separate
integer and floating-point opcodes, introducing
FAdd, FSub, and FMul.

For now, the AsmParser, BitcodeReader, and IRBuilder all preserve
backwards compatability, and the Core LLVM APIs preserve backwards
compatibility for IR producers. Most front-ends won't need to change
immediately.

This implements the first step of the plan outlined here:
