We previously supported the align attribute on all (pointer) parameters, but we
only used it for byval parameters. However, it is completely consistent at the
IR level to treat 'align n' on all pointer parameters as an alignment
assumption on the pointer, and now we wll. Specifically, this causes
computeKnownBits to use the align attribute on all pointer parameters, not just
byval parameters. I've also added an explicit parameter attribute test for this
to test/Bitcode/attributes.ll.
And I've updated the LangRef to document the align parameter attribute (as it
turns out, it was not documented at all previously, although the byval
documentation mentioned that it could be used).
There are (at least) two benefits to doing this:
- It allows enhancing alignment based on the pointer alignment after inlining callees.
- It allows simplification of pointer arithmetic.

to globally be controlled. Individual targets (e.g. ExceptionDemo) can
still override this by using LLVM_REQUIRE_RTTI and LLVM_REQUIRE_EH if
they need to be compiled with RTTI or exception handling respectively.

- When CMake builds the documentation with sphinx-build it treats
warnings as errors. We should be consistent with what we do in
CMake.
- Having warnings treated as errors will hopefully encourage
developers to write documentation correctly.

Summary: This patch introduces two new iterator ranges and updates existing code to use it. No functional change intended.
Test Plan: All tests (make check-all) still pass.

This attribute indicates that the parameter or return pointer is
dereferenceable. Practically speaking, loads from such a pointer within the
associated byte range are safe to speculatively execute. Such pointer
parameters are common in source languages (C++ references, for example).

This optional dependency on the udis86 library was added some time back to aid
JIT development, but doesn't make much sense to link into LLVM binaries these
days.

Convert the operand to int if possible, i.e. if the value is properly
initialized. (I suppose there is further room for improvement here to also
peform the shift if the uninitialized bits are shifted out.)
With this little change we can now compute the scaling factor for compressed
displacement with pure tablegen code in the X86 backend. This is useful
because both the X86-disassembler-specific part of tablegen and the assembler
need this and TD is the natural sharing place.
The patch also adds the missing documentation for the shift and add operator.

This makes the two intrinsics @llvm.convert.from.f16 and
@llvm.convert.to.f16 accept types other than simple "float". This is
only strictly needed for the truncate operation, since otherwise
double rounding occurs and there's no way to represent the strict IEEE
conversion. However, for symmetry we allow larger types in the extend
too.
During legalization, we can expand an "fp16_to_double" operation into
two extends for convenience, but abort when the truncate isn't legal. A new
libcall is probably needed here.
Even after this commit, various target tweaks are needed to actually use the
extended intrinsics. I've put these into separate commits for clarity, so there
are no actual tests of f64 conversion here.

Add a `MapVector::remove_if()` that erases items in bulk in linear time,
as opposed to quadratic time for repeated calls to `MapVector::erase()`.
llvm-svn: 213090
Actually update the changed indexes in the map portion of `MapVector`
when erasing from the middle. Add a unit test that checks for this.
Note that `MapVector::erase()` is a linear time operation (it was and
still is). I'll commit a new method in a moment called
`MapVector::remove_if()` that deletes multiple entries in linear time,
which should be slightly less painful.

Summary:
Add FileCheck -implicit-check-not option which allows specifying a
pattern that should only occur in the input when explicitly matched by a
positive check. This feature allows checking tool diagnostics in a way
clang -verify does it for compiler diagnostics.
The option has been tested on a number of clang-tidy checks, I'll post a link to
the clang-tidy patch to this thread.
Once there's an agreement on the general direction, I can add tests and
documentation.

This new IR facility allows us to represent the object-file semantic of
a COMDAT group.
COMDATs allow us to tie together sections and make the inclusion of one
dependent on another. This is required to implement features like MS
ABI VFTables and optimizing away certain kinds of initialization in C++.
This functionality is only representable in COFF and ELF, Mach-O has no
similar mechanism.

[LLVM part]
These patches rename the loop unrolling and loop vectorizer metadata
such that they have a common 'llvm.loop.' prefix. Metadata name
changes:
llvm.vectorizer.* => llvm.loop.vectorizer.*
llvm.loopunroll.* => llvm.loop.unroll.*
This was a suggestion from an earlier review
(http://reviews.llvm.org/D4090) which added the loop unrolling
metadata.

Summary:
With this patch, range metadata can be added to call/invoke including
IntrinsicInst. Previously, it could only be added to load.
Rename computeKnownBitsLoad to computeKnownBitsFromRangeMetadata because
range metadata is not only used by load.
Update the language reference to reflect this change.
Test Plan:
Add several tests in range-2.ll to confirm the verifier is happy with
having range metadata on call/invoke.
Add two tests in AddOverFlow.ll to confirm annotating range metadata to
call/invoke can benefit InstCombine.

This patch removes the LLVM global lock, and updates all existing

mutually exclusive with any of the other users of the global
