Akira Hatanaka c6f1713c46 [ObjC][ARC] Don't remove autoreleaseRV/retainRV pairs if the call isn't
a tail call

This reapplies the patch in https://reviews.llvm.org/rG1f5b471b8bf4,
which was reverted because it was causing crashes.

https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1061289#c2

Check that HasSafePathToCall is true before checking the call is a tail
call.

Original commit message:

Previosly ARC optimizer removed the autoreleaseRV/retainRV pair in the
following code, which caused the object returned by @something to be
placed in the autorelease pool because the call to @something isn't a
tail call:

```
  %call = call i8* @something(...)
  %2 = call i8* @objc_retainAutoreleasedReturnValue(i8* %call)
  %3 = call i8* @objc_autoreleaseReturnValue(i8* %2)
  ret i8* %3
```

Fix the bug by checking whether @something is a tail call.

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith 3279724905 llvm/ObjCARC: Eliminate inlined AutoreleaseRV calls
Pair up inlined AutoreleaseRV calls with their matching RetainRV or
ClaimRV.

- RetainRV cancels out AutoreleaseRV.  Delete both instructions.
- ClaimRV is a peephole for RetainRV+Release.  Delete AutoreleaseRV and
  replace ClaimRV with Release.

This avoids problems where more aggressive inlining triggers memory
regressions.

This patch is happy to skip over non-callable instructions and non-ARC
intrinsics looking for the pair.  It is likely sound to also skip over
opaque function calls, but that's harder to reason about, and it's not
relevant to the goal here: if there's an opaque function call splitting
up a pair, it's very unlikely that a handshake would have happened
dynamically without inlining.

Note that this patch also subsumes the previous logic that looked
backwards from ReleaseRV.

Francis Visoiu Mistrih 47d1029788 [ObjC][ARC] Ignore lifetime markers between *ReturnValue calls
When eliminating a pair of

`llvm.objc.autoreleaseReturnValue`

followed by

`llvm.objc.retainAutoreleasedReturnValue`

we need to make sure that the instructions in between are safe to
ignore.

Other than bitcasts and useless GEPs, it's also safe to ignore lifetime
markers for both static allocas (lifetime.start/lifetime.end) and dynamic
allocas (stacksave/stackrestore).

These get added by the inliner as part of the return sequence and can
prevent the transformation from happening in practice.

Akira Hatanaka 8edf8f317b [ObjC][ARC] Let ARC optimizer bail out if the number of pointer states
it keeps track of becomes too large

ARC optimizer does a top-down and a bottom-up traversal of the whole
function to pair up retain and release instructions and remove them.
This can be expensive if the number of instructions in the function and
pointer states it tracks are large since it has to look at each pointer
state and determine whether the instruction being visited can
potentially use the pointer.

This patch adds a command line option that sets a limit to the number of
pointers it tracks.

Chandler Carruth 2946cd7010 Update the file headers across all of the LLVM projects in the monorepo
to reflect the new license.

We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.

Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and

Pete Cooper 697281df42 Teach ObjCARC optimizer about equivalent PHIs when eliminating autoreleaseRV/retainRV pairs
OptimizeAutoreleaseRVCall skips optimizing llvm.objc.autoreleaseReturnValue if it
sees a user which is llvm.objc.retainAutoreleasedReturnValue, and if they have
equivalent arguments (either identical or equivalent PHIs). It then assumes that
ObjCARCOpt::OptimizeRetainRVCall will optimize the pair instead.

Trouble is, ObjCARCOpt::OptimizeRetainRVCall doesn't know about equivalent PHIs
so optimizes in a different way and we are left with an unoptimized llvm.objc.autoreleaseReturnValue.

This teaches ObjCARCOpt::OptimizeRetainRVCall to also understand PHI equivalence.

Akira Hatanaka 73ceb50d85 [ObjCARC] Do not turn a call to @objc_autoreleaseReturnValue into a call

For example, ARC optimizer shouldn't replace the call in the following
example, as doing so breaks the AutoreleaseRV/RetainRV optimization:

  %v1 = bitcast i32* %v0 to i8*
  br label %bb3
bb2:
  %v3 = bitcast i32* %v2 to i8*
  br label %bb3
bb3:
  %p = phi i8* [ %v1, %bb1 ], [ %v3, %bb2 ]
  %retval = phi i32* [ %v0, %bb1 ], [ %v2, %bb2 ] ; equivalent to %p
  %v4 = tail call i8* @objc_autoreleaseReturnValue(i8* %p)
  ret i32* %retval

Also, make sure ObjCARCContract replaces @objc_autoreleaseReturnValue's
operand uses with its value so that the call gets tail-called.

Chandler Carruth 6bda14b313 Sort the remaining #include lines in include/... and lib/....
I did this a long time ago with a janky python script, but now
clang-format has built-in support for this. I fed clang-format every
line with a #include and let it re-sort things according to the precise
LLVM rules for include ordering baked into clang-format these days.

I've reverted a number of files where the results of sorting includes
isn't healthy. Either places where we have legacy code relying on
particular include ordering (where possible, I'll fix these separately)
or where we have particular formatting around #include lines that
I didn't want to disturb in this patch.

This patch is *entirely* mechanical. If you get merge conflicts or
anything, just ignore the changes in this patch and run clang-format
over your #include lines in the files.

Sorry for any noise here, but it is important to keep these things
stable. I was seeing an increasing number of patches with irrelevant
re-ordering of #include lines because clang-format was used. This patch
at least isolates that churn, makes it easy to skip when resolving
conflicts, and gets us to a clean baseline (again).

there are quite a few reports of this nature that I did not do anything
to fix because they are pretty glaring false positives. They usually
took the form of quite clear correlated checks or a check made in
a separate function. I've even added asserts anywhere this correlation

Chandler Carruth 7b560d40bd [PM/AA] Rebuild LLVM's alias analysis infrastructure in a way compatible
with the new pass manager, and no longer relying on analysis groups.

This builds essentially a ground-up new AA infrastructure stack for
LLVM. The core ideas are the same that are used throughout the new pass
manager: type erased polymorphism and direct composition. The design is
as follows:

- FunctionAAResults is a type-erasing alias analysis results aggregation
  interface to walk a single query across a range of results from
  different alias analyses. Currently this is function-specific as we
  always assume that aliasing queries are *within* a function.

- AAResultBase is a CRTP utility providing stub implementations of
  various parts of the alias analysis result concept, notably in several
  cases in terms of other more general parts of the interface. This can
  be used to implement only a narrow part of the interface rather than
  the entire interface. This isn't really ideal, this logic should be
  hoisted into FunctionAAResults as currently it will cause
  a significant amount of redundant work, but it faithfully models the
  behavior of the prior infrastructure.

- All the alias analysis passes are ported to be wrapper passes for the
  legacy PM and new-style analysis passes for the new PM with a shared
  result object. In some cases (most notably CFL), this is an extremely
  naive approach that we should revisit when we can specialize for the
  new pass manager.

- BasicAA has been restructured to reflect that it is much more
  fundamentally a function analysis because it uses dominator trees and
  loop info that need to be constructed for each function.

All of the references to getting alias analysis results have been
updated to use the new aggregation interface. All the preservation and
other pass management code has been updated accordingly.

The way the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass works is to detect the
available alias analyses when run, and add them to the results object.
This means that we should be able to continue to respect when various
passes are added to the pipeline, for example adding CFL or adding TBAA
passes should just cause their results to be available and to get folded
into this. The exception to this rule is BasicAA which really needs to
be a function pass due to using dominator trees and loop info. As
a consequence, the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass directly depends on
BasicAA and always includes it in the aggregation.

This has significant implications for preserving analyses. Generally,
most passes shouldn't bother preserving FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass
because rebuilding the results just updates the set of known AA passes.
The exception to this rule are LoopPass instances which need to preserve
all the function analyses that the loop pass manager will end up
needing. This means preserving both BasicAAWrapperPass and the
aggregating FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass.

Now, when preserving an alias analysis, you do so by directly preserving
that analysis. This is only necessary for non-immutable-pass-provided
alias analyses though, and there are only three of interest: BasicAA,
GlobalsAA (formerly GlobalsModRef), and SCEVAA. Usually BasicAA is
preserved when needed because it (like DominatorTree and LoopInfo) is
marked as a CFG-only pass. I've expanded GlobalsAA into the preserved
set everywhere we previously were preserving all of AliasAnalysis, and
I've added SCEVAA in the intersection of that with where we preserve
SCEV itself.

One significant challenge to all of this is that the CGSCC passes were
actually using the alias analysis implementations by taking advantage of
a pretty amazing set of loop holes in the old pass manager's analysis
management code which allowed analysis groups to slide through in many
cases. Moving away from analysis groups makes this problem much more
obvious. To fix it, I've leveraged the flexibility the design of the new
PM components provides to just directly construct the relevant alias
analyses for the relevant functions in the IPO passes that need them.
This is a bit hacky, but should go away with the new pass manager, and
is already in many ways cleaner than the prior state.

Another significant challenge is that various facilities of the old
alias analysis infrastructure just don't fit any more. The most
significant of these is the alias analysis 'counter' pass. That pass
relied on the ability to snoop on AA queries at different points in the
analysis group chain. Instead, I'm planning to build printing
functionality directly into the aggregation layer. I've not included
that in this patch merely to keep it smaller.

Note that all of this needs a nearly complete rewrite of the AA
documentation. I'm planning to do that, but I'd like to make sure the
new design settles, and to flesh out a bit more of what it looks like in
the new pass manager first.
