Now that `Metadata` is typeless, reflect that in the assembly. These
are the matching assembly changes for the metadata/value split in
r223802.
- Only use the `metadata` type when referencing metadata from a call
intrinsic -- i.e., only when it's used as a `Value`.
- Stop pretending that `ValueAsMetadata` is wrapped in an `MDNode`
when referencing it from call intrinsics.
So, assembly like this:
define @foo(i32 %v) {
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 %v}, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 7}, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !1, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{metadata !3}, metadata !0)
ret void, !bar !2
}
!0 = metadata !{metadata !2}
!1 = metadata !{i32* @global}
!2 = metadata !{metadata !3}
!3 = metadata !{}
turns into this:
define @foo(i32 %v) {
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 %v, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 7, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32* @global, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{!3}, metadata !0)
ret void, !bar !2
}
!0 = !{!2}
!1 = !{i32* @global}
!2 = !{!3}
!3 = !{}
I wrote an upgrade script that handled almost all of the tests in llvm
and many of the tests in cfe (even handling many `CHECK` lines). I've
attached it (or will attach it in a moment if you're speedy) to PR21532
to help everyone update their out-of-tree testcases.
This is part of PR21532.

This works around the limitation that PTX does not allow .param space
loads/stores with arbitrary pointers.
If a function has a by-val struct ptr arg, say foo(%struct.x *byval %d), then
add the following instructions to the first basic block :
%temp = alloca %struct.x, align 8
%tt1 = bitcast %struct.x * %d to i8 *
%tt2 = llvm.nvvm.cvt.gen.to.param %tt2
%tempd = bitcast i8 addrspace(101) * to %struct.x addrspace(101) *
%tv = load %struct.x addrspace(101) * %tempd
store %struct.x %tv, %struct.x * %temp, align 8
The above code allocates some space in the stack and copies the incoming
struct from param space to local space. Then replace all occurences of %d
by %temp.
Fixes PR21465.
