Richard Diamond 72303a2436 Fix `llvm-config` to adapt to the install environment.
Summary:
This patch does a couple of things:

  - Adds a new argument `--shared-mode` which accepts a list of components and prints whether or not the provided components need to be linked statically or shared.
  - Fixes `--libnames` when CMake BUILD_SHARED_LIBS is used.
  - Fixes `--libnames`, `--libs`, and `--libfiles` for dylib when static components aren't installed.
  - Fixes `--libnames`, `--libs`, `--libfiles`, and `--components` to use LLVM_DYLIB_COMPONENTS as the component manifest for dylib linking.
  - Uses the host platform's usual convention for filename extensions and such, instead of always defaulting to Unix-izms.

Because I don't own a Mac, I am not able to test the Mac platform dependent stuff locally. If someone would be willing to run a build for me on their machine (unless there's a better option), I'd appreciate it.

Peter Collingbourne d4bff30370 DI: Reverse direction of subprogram -> function edge.
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.

Chandler Carruth 7adc3a2b0e [PM/AA] Remove the last relics of the separate IPA library from LLVM,
folding the code into the main Analysis library.

There already wasn't much of a distinction between Analysis and IPA.
A number of the passes in Analysis are actually IPA passes, and there
doesn't seem to be any advantage to separating them.

Moreover, it makes it hard to have interactions between analyses that
are both local and interprocedural. In trying to make the Alias Analysis
infrastructure work with the new pass manager, it becomes particularly
awkward to navigate this split.

I've tried to find all the places where we referenced this, but I may
have missed some. I have also adjusted the C API to continue to be
equivalently functional after this change.

Richard Diamond 23280472c3 Revert "Fix `llvm-config` to emit the linker flag for the combined shared object built by autoconfig/make instead of the individual components."
It seems I was wrong thinking `autoconf`/`make` only installed shared libraries if configured with `--enable-shared`, even if `--disable-static` is present. I'll re-address with a followup patch.

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith 1e40dc42cd DI: Rewrite the DIBuilder local variable API
Replace the general `createLocalVariable()` with two more specific
functions: `createParameterVariable()` and `createAutoVariable()`, and
rewrite the documentation.

Besides cleaning up the API, this avoids exposing the fake DWARF tags
`DW_TAG_arg_variable` and `DW_TAG_auto_variable` to frontends, and is
preparation for removing them completely.

JF Bastien ba70e9e1e6 Fix `llvm-config` to emit the linker flag for the combined shared object built by autoconfig/make instead of the individual components.
Summary:
When LLVM is configured to build shared libraries, CMake builds each component as it's own shared object, while autoconfig/make builds them statically and then links them all together to create a single shared object. This change adds compile time config flags to `llvm-config` so it can know whether LLVM's components are separated or not and act accordingly.

This fixes `llvm-config` instead of fixing the makefiles to behave like CMake because, AIUI, LLVM's autoconfig/make build system is on the way out anyway.

This change only affects `llvm-config` from builds that use autoconfig/make.

Summary:
Add Value.SetPersonality to the Go bindings. The Go

Background

The personality attribute was removed from LandingPadInst
in r239940, and llvm::Function::setPersonalityFn introduced.

There was no corresponding change to either the C API or
Go bindings. The Go bindings were broken until r239940, but
that change was just to ignore the personality argument.
This broke llgo.

Rafael Espindola 76ad232179 Remove getRelocationAddress.
Originally added in r139314.

Back then it didn't actually get the address, it got whatever value the
relocation used: address or offset.

The values in different object formats are:

* MachO: Always an offset.
* COFF: Always an address, but when talking about the virtual address of
  sections it says: "for simplicity, compilers should set this to zero".
* ELF: An offset for .o files and and address for .so files. In the case of the
  .so, the relocation in not linked to any section (sh_info is 0). We can't
  really compute an offset.

Some API mappings would be:

* Use getAddress for everything. It would be quite cumbersome. To compute the
  address elf has to follow sh_info, which can be corrupted and therefore the
  method has to return an ErrorOr. The address of the section is also the same
  for every relocation in a section, so we shouldn't have to check the error
  and fetch the value for every relocation.

* Use a getValue and make it up to the user to know what it is getting.

* Use a getOffset and:
 * Assert for dynamic ELF objects. That is a very peculiar case and it is
   probably fair to ask any tool that wants to support it to use ELF.h. The
   only tool we have that reads those (llvm-readobj) already does that. The
   only other use case I can think of is a dynamic linker.
 * Check that COFF .obj files have sections with zero virtual address spaces. If
   it turns out that some assembler/compiler produces these, we can change
   COFFObjectFile::getRelocationOffset to subtract it. Given COFF format,
   this can be done without the need for ErrorOr.

The getRelocationAddress method was never implemented for COFF. It also
had exactly one use in a very peculiar case: a shortcut for adding the
section value to a pcrel reloc on MachO.

Given that, I don't expect that there is any use out there of the C API. If
that is not the case, let me know and I will add it back with the implementation
inlined and do a proper deprecation.

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith a9308c49ef IR: Give 'DI' prefix to debug info metadata
Finish off PR23080 by renaming the debug info IR constructs from `MD*`
to `DI*`.  The last of the `DIDescriptor` classes were deleted in
r235356, and the last of the related typedefs removed in r235413, so
this has all baked for about a week.

Note: If you have out-of-tree code (like a frontend), I recommend that
you get everything compiling and tests passing with the *previous*
commit before updating to this one.  It'll be easier to keep track of
what code is using the `DIDescriptor` hierarchy and what you've already
updated, and I think you're extremely unlikely to insert bugs.  YMMV of
course.

Back to *this* commit: I did this using the rename-md-di-nodes.sh
upgrade script I've attached to PR23080 (both code and testcases) and
filtered through clang-format-diff.py.  I edited the tests for
test/Assembler/invalid-generic-debug-node-*.ll by hand since the columns
were off-by-three.  It should work on your out-of-tree testcases (and
code, if you've followed the advice in the previous paragraph).

Some of the tests are in badly named files now (e.g.,
test/Assembler/invalid-mdcompositetype-missing-tag.ll should be
'dicompositetype'); I'll come back and move the files in a follow-up
commit.

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith cd1aecfe36 DebugInfo: Require a DebugLoc in DIBuilder::insertDeclare()
Change `DIBuilder::insertDeclare()` and `insertDbgValueIntrinsic()` to
take an `MDLocation*`/`DebugLoc` parameter which it attaches to the
created intrinsic.  Assert at creation time that the `scope:` field's
subprogram matches the variable's.  There's a matching `clang` commit to
use the API.

The context for this is PR22778, which is removing the `inlinedAt:`
field from `MDLocalVariable`, instead deferring to the `!dbg` location
attached to the debug info intrinsic.  The best way to ensure we always
have a `!dbg` attachment is to require one at creation time.  I'll be
adding verifier checks next, but this API change is the best way to
shake out frontend bugs.

Note: I added an `llvm_unreachable()` in `bindings/go` and passed in
`nullptr` for the `DebugLoc`.  The `llgo` folks will eventually need to
pass a valid `DebugLoc` here.

Chandler Carruth 30d69c2e36 [PM] Remove the old 'PassManager.h' header file at the top level of
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

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith 946fdcc50c IR: Remove MDNodeFwdDecl
Remove `MDNodeFwdDecl` (as promised in r226481).  Aside from API
changes, there's no real functionality change here.
`MDNode::getTemporary()` now forwards to `MDTuple::getTemporary()`,
which returns a tuple with `isTemporary()` equal to true.

The main point is that we can now add temporaries of other `MDNode`
subclasses, needed for PR22235 (I introduced `MDNodeFwdDecl` in the
first place because I didn't recognize this need, and thought they were
only needed to handle forward references).

A few things left out of (or highlighted by) this commit:

  - I've had to remove the (few) uses of `std::unique_ptr<>` to deal
    with temporaries, since the destructor is no longer public.
    `getTemporary()` should probably return the equivalent of
    `std::unique_ptr<T, MDNode::deleteTemporary>`.
  - `MDLocation::getTemporary()` doesn't exist yet (worse, it actually
    does exist, but does the wrong thing: `MDNode::getTemporary()` is
    inherited and returns an `MDTuple`).
  - `MDNode` now only has one subclass, `UniquableMDNode`, and the
    distinction between them is actually somewhat confusing.

I'll fix those up next.

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith 5bf8fef580 IR: Split Metadata from Value
Split `Metadata` away from the `Value` class hierarchy, as part of
PR21532.  Assembly and bitcode changes are in the wings, but this is the
bulk of the change for the IR C++ API.

I have a follow-up patch prepared for `clang`.  If this breaks other
sub-projects, I apologize in advance :(.  Help me compile it on Darwin
I'll try to fix it.  FWIW, the errors should be easy to fix, so it may
be simpler to just fix it yourself.

This breaks the build for all metadata-related code that's out-of-tree.
Rest assured the transition is mechanical and the compiler should catch
almost all of the problems.

Here's a quick guide for updating your code:

  - `Metadata` is the root of a class hierarchy with three main classes:
    `MDNode`, `MDString`, and `ValueAsMetadata`.  It is distinct from
    the `Value` class hierarchy.  It is typeless -- i.e., instances do
    *not* have a `Type`.

  - `MDNode`'s operands are all `Metadata *` (instead of `Value *`).

  - `TrackingVH<MDNode>` and `WeakVH` referring to metadata can be
    replaced with `TrackingMDNodeRef` and `TrackingMDRef`, respectively.

    If you're referring solely to resolved `MDNode`s -- post graph
    construction -- just use `MDNode*`.

  - `MDNode` (and the rest of `Metadata`) have only limited support for
    `replaceAllUsesWith()`.

    As long as an `MDNode` is pointing at a forward declaration -- the
    result of `MDNode::getTemporary()` -- it maintains a side map of its
    uses and can RAUW itself.  Once the forward declarations are fully
    resolved RAUW support is dropped on the ground.  This means that
    uniquing collisions on changing operands cause nodes to become
    "distinct".  (This already happened fairly commonly, whenever an
    operand went to null.)

    If you're constructing complex (non self-reference) `MDNode` cycles,
    you need to call `MDNode::resolveCycles()` on each node (or on a
    top-level node that somehow references all of the nodes).  Also,
    don't do that.  Metadata cycles (and the RAUW machinery needed to
    construct them) are expensive.

  - An `MDNode` can only refer to a `Constant` through a bridge called
    `ConstantAsMetadata` (one of the subclasses of `ValueAsMetadata`).

    As a side effect, accessing an operand of an `MDNode` that is known
    to be, e.g., `ConstantInt`, takes three steps: first, cast from
    `Metadata` to `ConstantAsMetadata`; second, extract the `Constant`;
    third, cast down to `ConstantInt`.

    The eventual goal is to introduce `MDInt`/`MDFloat`/etc. and have
    metadata schema owners transition away from using `Constant`s when
    the type isn't important (and they don't care about referring to
    `GlobalValue`s).

    In the meantime, I've added transitional API to the `mdconst`
    namespace that matches semantics with the old code, in order to
    avoid adding the error-prone three-step equivalent to every call
    site.  If your old code was:

        MDNode *N = foo();
        bar(isa             <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
        baz(cast            <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
        bak(cast_or_null    <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
        bat(dyn_cast        <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
        bay(dyn_cast_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));

    you can trivially match its semantics with:

        MDNode *N = foo();
        bar(mdconst::hasa               <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
        baz(mdconst::extract            <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
        bak(mdconst::extract_or_null    <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
        bat(mdconst::dyn_extract        <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
        bay(mdconst::dyn_extract_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));

    and when you transition your metadata schema to `MDInt`:

        MDNode *N = foo();
        bar(isa             <MDInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
        baz(cast            <MDInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
        bak(cast_or_null    <MDInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
        bat(dyn_cast        <MDInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
        bay(dyn_cast_or_null<MDInt>(N->getOperand(4)));

  - A `CallInst` -- specifically, intrinsic instructions -- can refer to
    metadata through a bridge called `MetadataAsValue`.  This is a
    subclass of `Value` where `getType()->isMetadataTy()`.

    `MetadataAsValue` is the *only* class that can legally refer to a
    `LocalAsMetadata`, which is a bridged form of non-`Constant` values
    like `Argument` and `Instruction`.  It can also refer to any other
    `Metadata` subclass.

(I'll break all your testcases in a follow-up commit, when I propagate
this change to assembly.)
