OpenCL 2.0 introduces the notion of memory scopes in atomic operations to
global and local memory. These scopes restrict how synchronization is
achieved, which can result in improved performance.
This change extends existing notion of synchronization scopes in LLVM to
support arbitrary scopes expressed as target-specific strings, in addition to
the already defined scopes (single thread, system).
The LLVM IR and MIR syntax for expressing synchronization scopes has changed
to use *syncscope("<scope>")*, where <scope> can be "singlethread" (this
replaces *singlethread* keyword), or a target-specific name. As before, if
the scope is not specified, it defaults to CrossThread/System scope.
Implementation details:
- Mapping from synchronization scope name/string to synchronization scope id
is stored in LLVM context;
- CrossThread/System and SingleThread scopes are pre-defined to efficiently
check for known scopes without comparing strings;
- Synchronization scope names are stored in SYNC_SCOPE_NAMES_BLOCK in
the bitcode.

This is based heavily on the work done ni D34285. I mostly wanted to do
test cleanup for the author to save them some time, but I had a really
hard time understanding why it was so hard to write better test cases
for these issues.
The problem is that because SROA does a second rewrite of the loads and
because we *don't* propagate !nonnull for non-pointer loads, we first
introduced invalid !nonnull metadata and then stripped it back off just
in time to avoid most ways of this PR manifesting. Moving to the more
careful utility only fixes this by changing the predicate to look at the
new load's type rather than the target type. However, that *does* fix
the bug, and the utility is much nicer including adding range metadata
to model the nonnull property after a conversion to an integer.
However, we have bigger problems because we don't actually propagate
*range* metadata, and the utility to do this extracted from instcombine
isn't really in good shape to do this currently. It *only* handles the
case of copying range metadata from an integer load to a pointer load.
It doesn't even handle the trivial cases of propagating from one integer
load to another when they are the same width! This utility will need to
be beefed up prior to using in this location to get the metadata to
fully survive.
And even then, we need to go and teach things to turn the range metadata
into an assume the way we do with nonnull so that when we *promote* an
integer we don't lose the information.
All of this will require a new test case that looks kind-of like
`preserve-nonnull.ll` does here but focuses on range metadata. It will
also likely require more testing because it needs to correctly handle
changes to the integer width, especially as SROA actively tries to
change the integer width!
Last but not least, I'm a little worried about hooking the range
metadata up here because the instcombine logic for converting from
a range metadata *to* a nonnull metadata node seems broken in the face
of non-zero address spaces where null is not mapped to the integer `0`.
So that probably needs to get fixed with test cases both in SROA and in
instcombine to cover it.
But this *does* extract the core PR fix from D34285 of preventing the
!nonnull metadata from being propagated in a broken state just long
enough to feed into promotion and crash value tracking.
On D34285 there is some discussion of zero-extend handling because it
isn't necessary. First, the new load size covers all of the non-undef
(ie, possibly initialized) bits. This may even extend past the original
alloca if loading those bits could produce valid data. The only way its
valid for us to zero-extend an integer load in SROA is if the original
code had a zero extend or those bits were undef. And we get to assume
things like undef *never* satifies nonnull, so non undef bits can
participate here. No need to special case the zero-extend handling, it
just falls out correctly.
The original credit goes to Ariel Ben-Yehuda! I'm mostly landing this to
save a few rounds of trivial edits fixing style issues and test case
formulation.

Currently there is a bug in SROA::presplitLoadsAndStores which causes assertion in
GEPOperator::accumulateConstantOffset.
Basically it does not consider the situation that the pointer operand of load or store
may be in a non-zero address space and its size may be different from the size of
a pointer in address space 0.

Summary:
As shown in the test case, SROA was crashing when trying to split
stores (to the alloca) of loads (from anywhere), because it assumed
the pointer operand to the loads and stores had to have the same
address space. This isn't the case. Make sure to use the correct
pointer type for both the load and the store.

Removing the virtual table pointer from Value saves 1% of RSS when doing

This change makes it invalid to directly delete a Value, User, or
Instruction pointer. Instead, such code can be rewritten to a null check
and a call Value::deleteValue(). Value objects tend to have their
lifetimes managed through iplist, so for the most part, this isn't a big
deal. However, there are some places where LLVM deletes values, and
those places had to be migrated to deleteValue. I have also created
llvm::unique_value, which has a custom deleter, so it can be used in
place of std::unique_ptr<Value>.
I had to add the "DerivedUser" Deleter escape hatch for MemorySSA, which
derives from User outside of lib/IR. Code in IR cannot include MemorySSA
headers or call the MemoryAccess object destructors without introducing
a circular dependency, so we need some level of indirection.
Unfortunately, no class derived from User may have any virtual methods,
because adding a virtual method would break User::getHungOffOperands(),
which assumes that it can find the use list immediately prior to the
User object. I've added a static_assert to the appropriate OperandTraits
templates to help people avoid this trap.

Summary:
There are several places in the codebase that try to calculate a maximum value in a Statistic object. We currently do this in one of two ways:
MaxNumFoo = std::max(MaxNumFoo, NumFoo);
or
MaxNumFoo = (MaxNumFoo > NumFoo) ? MaxNumFoo : NumFoo;
The first version reads from MaxNumFoo one time and uncontionally rwrites to it. The second version possibly reads it twice depending on the result of the first compare. But we have no way of knowing if the value was changed by another thread between the reads and the writes.
This patch adds a method to the Statistic object that can ensure that we only store if our value is the max and the previous max didn't change after we read it. If it changed we'll recheck if our value should still be the max or not and try again.
This spawned from an audit I'm trying to do of all places we uses the implicit conversion to unsigned on the Statistics objects. See my previous thread on llvm-dev https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/llvm-dev/yfvxiorKrDQ

LLVM makes several assumptions about address space 0. However,
alloca is presently constrained to always return this address space.
There's no real way to avoid using alloca, so without this
there is no way to opt out of these assumptions.
The problematic assumptions include:
- That the pointer size used for the stack is the same size as
the code size pointer, which is also the maximum sized pointer.
- That 0 is an invalid, non-dereferencable pointer value.
These are problems for AMDGPU because alloca is used to
implement the private address space, which uses a 32-bit
index as the pointer value. Other pointers are 64-bit
and behave more like LLVM's notion of generic address
space. By changing the address space used for allocas,
we can change our generic pointer type to be LLVM's generic
pointer type which does have similar properties.

so we can stop using DW_OP_bit_piece with the wrong semantics.
The entire back story can be found here:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20161114/405934.html
The gist is that in LLVM we've been misinterpreting DW_OP_bit_piece's
offset field to mean the offset into the source variable rather than
the offset into the location at the top the DWARF expression stack. In
order to be able to fix this in a subsequent patch, this patch
introduces a dedicated DW_OP_LLVM_fragment operation with the
semantics that we used to apply to DW_OP_bit_piece, which is what we
actually need while inside of LLVM. This patch is complete with a
bitcode upgrade for expressions using the old format. It does not yet
fix the DWARF backend to use DW_OP_bit_piece correctly.
Implementation note: We discussed several options for implementing
this, including reserving a dedicated field in DIExpression for the
fragment size and offset, but using an custom operator at the end of
the expression works just fine and is more efficient because we then
only pay for it when we need it.

As proposed on llvm-dev:

This is for a couple of reasons:
- Values of type PointerType are unlike the other SequentialTypes (arrays
and vectors) in that they do not hold values of the element type. By moving
PointerType we can unify certain aspects of how the other SequentialTypes
are handled.
- PointerType will have no place in the SequentialType hierarchy once
pointee types are removed, so this is a necessary step towards removing
pointee types.

This patch implements a optimization bisect feature, which will allow optimizations to be selectively disabled at compile time in order to track down test failures that are caused by incorrect optimizations.
The bisection is enabled using a new command line option (-opt-bisect-limit). Individual passes that may be skipped call the OptBisect object (via an LLVMContext) to see if they should be skipped based on the bisect limit. A finer level of control (disabling individual transformations) can be managed through an addition OptBisect method, but this is not yet used.
The skip checking in this implementation is based on (and replaces) the skipOptnoneFunction check. Where that check was being called, a new call has been inserted in its place which checks the bisect limit and the optnone attribute. A new function call has been added for module and SCC passes that behaves in a similar way.

Summary:
Fixes PR26774.
If you're aware of the issue, feel free to skip the "Motivation"
section and jump directly to "This patch".
Motivation:
I define "refinement" as discarding behaviors from a program that the
optimizer has license to discard. So transforming:
```
void f(unsigned x) {
unsigned t = 5 / x;
(void)t;
}
```
to
```
void f(unsigned x) { }
```
is refinement, since the behavior went from "if x == 0 then undefined
else nothing" to "nothing" (the optimizer has license to discard
undefined behavior).
Refinement is a fundamental aspect of many mid-level optimizations done
by LLVM. For instance, transforming `x == (x + 1)` to `false` also
involves refinement since the expression's value went from "if x is
`undef` then { `true` or `false` } else { `false` }" to "`false`" (by
definition, the optimizer has license to fold `undef` to any non-`undef`
value).
Unfortunately, refinement implies that the optimizer cannot assume
that the implementation of a function it can see has all of the
behavior an unoptimized or a differently optimized version of the same
function can have. This is a problem for functions with comdat
linkage, where a function can be replaced by an unoptimized or a
differently optimized version of the same source level function.
For instance, FunctionAttrs cannot assume a comdat function is
actually `readnone` even if it does not have any loads or stores in
it; since there may have been loads and stores in the "original
function" that were refined out in the currently visible variant, and
at the link step the linker may in fact choose an implementation with
a load or a store. As an example, consider a function that does two
atomic loads from the same memory location, and writes to memory only
if the two values are not equal. The optimizer is allowed to refine
this function by first CSE'ing the two loads, and the folding the
comparision to always report that the two values are equal. Such a
refined variant will look like it is `readonly`. However, the
unoptimized version of the function can still write to memory (since
the two loads //can// result in different values), and selecting the
unoptimized version at link time will retroactively invalidate
transforms we may have done under the assumption that the function
does not write to memory.
Note: this is not just a problem with atomics or with linking
differently optimized object files. See PR26774 for more realistic
examples that involved neither.
This patch:
This change introduces a new set of linkage types, predicated as
`GlobalValue::mayBeDerefined` that returns true if the linkage type
allows a function to be replaced by a differently optimized variant at
link time. It then changes a set of IPO passes to bail out if they see
such a function.
