It's currently ambiguous in IR whether the source language explicitly
did not want a stack a stack protector (in C, via function attribute
no_stack_protector) or doesn't care for any given function.
It's common for code that manipulates the stack via inline assembly or
that has to set up its own stack canary (such as the Linux kernel) would
like to avoid stack protectors in certain functions. In this case, we've
been bitten by numerous bugs where a callee with a stack protector is
inlined into an __attribute__((__no_stack_protector__)) caller, which
generally breaks the caller's assumptions about not having a stack
protector. LTO exacerbates the issue.
While developers can avoid this by putting all no_stack_protector
functions in one translation unit together and compiling those with
-fno-stack-protector, it's generally not very ergonomic or as
ergonomic as a function attribute, and still doesn't work for LTO. See also:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pm/20200915172658.1432732-1-rkir@google.com/https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200918201436.2932360-30-samitolvanen@google.com/T/#u
Typically, when inlining a callee into a caller, the caller will be
upgraded in its level of stack protection (see adjustCallerSSPLevel()).
By adding an explicit attribute in the IR when the function attribute is
used in the source language, we can now identify such cases and prevent
inlining. Block inlining when the callee and caller differ in the case that one
contains `nossp` when the other has `ssp`, `sspstrong`, or `sspreq`.
Fixes pr/47479.

LLVM IR currently assumes some form of forward progress. This form is
not explicitly defined anywhere, and is the cause of miscompilations
in most languages that are not C++11 or later. This implicit forward progress
guarantee can not be opted out of on a function level nor on a loop
level. Languages such as C (C11 and later), C++ (pre-C++11), and Rust
have different forward progress requirements and this needs to be
evident in the IR.
Specifically, C11 and onwards (6.8.5, Paragraph 6) states that "An
iteration statement whose controlling expression is not a constant
expression, that performs no input/output operations, does not access
volatile objects, and performs no synchronization or atomic operations
in its body, controlling expression, or (in the case of for statement)
its expression-3, may be assumed by the implementation to terminate."
C++11 and onwards does not have this assumption, and instead assumes
that every thread must make progress as defined in [intro.progress] when
it comes to scheduling.
This was initially brought up in [0] as a bug, a solution was presented
in [1] which is the current workaround, and the predecessor to this
change was [2].
After defining a notion of forward progress for IR, there are two
options to address this:
1) Set the default to assuming Forward Progress and provide an opt-out for functions and an opt-in for loops.
2) Set the default to not assuming Forward Progress and provide an opt-in for functions, and an opt-in for loops.
Option 2) has been selected because only C++11 and onwards have a
forward progress requirement and it makes sense for them to opt-into it
via the defined `mustprogress` function attribute. The `mustprogress`
function attribute indicates that the function is required to make
forward progress as defined. This is sharply in contrast to the status
quo where this is implicitly assumed. In addition, `willreturn` implies `mustprogress`.
The background for why this definition was chosen is in [3] and for why
the option was chosen is in [4] and the corresponding thread(s). The implementation is in D85393, the
clang patch is in D86841, the LoopDeletion patch is in D86844, the
Inliner patches are in D87180 and D87262, and there will be more
incoming.

D71407 and D71474 added new keywords to the Tablegen language:
`defvar`, `if`, `then` and `else`. This commit updates the various
editor modes to highlight them appropriately.
Some of the modes also didn't include `defset`, so I've added that too
while I was there.

Summary:
The keyword and type keyword matchers in tablegen-mode.el checked
for space, newline, tab, or open paren after the regular expression
that matches keywords (or type keywords, respectively). This is
unnecessary, because those regular expressions already include word
boundaries. This change removes the extra check. This also causes
"def" in "def:" to be highlighted as a keyword, which was missed
before.

Add "memtag" sanitizer that detects and mitigates stack memory issues
using armv8.5 Memory Tagging Extension.
It is similar in principle to HWASan, which is a software implementation
of the same idea, but there are enough differencies to warrant a new
sanitizer type IMHO. It is also expected to have very different
performance properties.
The new sanitizer does not have a runtime library (it may grow one
later, along with a "debugging" mode). Similar to SafeStack and
StackProtector, the instrumentation pass (in a follow up change) will be
inserted in all cases, but will only affect functions marked with the
new sanitize_memtag attribute.

This indicates an intrinsic parameter is required to be a constant,
and should not be replaced with a non-constant value.
Add the attribute to all AMDGPU and generic intrinsics that comments
indicate it should apply to. I scanned other target intrinsics, but I
don't see any obvious comments indicating which arguments are intended
to be only immediates.
This breaks one questionable testcase for the autoupgrade. I'm unclear
on whether the autoupgrade is supposed to really handle declarations
which were never valid. The verifier fails because the attributes now
refer to a parameter past the end of the argument list.

I've made a range of improvements to the Emacs mode for LLVM IR.
Most importantly, it changes llvm-mode to inherit from prog-mode. This
means llvm-mode will be treated as a normal programming mode in Emacs,
so many Emacs features will just work. prog-mode is new to Emacs 24,
so I've added an alias to ensure compatibility with Emacs 23 too.
I've changed the mode definition to use define-derived-mode. This
saves us needing to set up local variables ourselves, and saves us
needing to define llvm-mode-map, llvm-mode-abbrev-table,
llvm-mode-map.
I've removed the keybindings to tab-to-tab-stop, center-line and
center-paragraph. This shouldn't be llvm-mode's responsibility, and
the code didn't actually work anyway (since `(not llvm-mode-map)`
always evaluated to `t`, the keybindings were never executed).
I've simplified the syntax-table definition, it's equivalent (e.g. `"`
is treated as string delimiter by default in Emacs). I've added `.` as
a symbol constituent, so functions like `llvm.memset.p0i8.i32` are
recognised as a single symbol. I've also changed `%` to be a symbol
constituent, so users can move between words or symbols at their
choice, rather than conflating the two.
I've fixed regexp for types, which incorrect used `symbol` instead of
`symbols` as an argument to `regexp-opt`. This was causing incorrect
highlighting on lines like `call void @foovoid`.
I've removed string and comment highlighting from
`llvm-font-lock-keywords`. This is already handled by the
syntax-table.
Finally, I've removed the reference to jasmin. That project is long
abandoned and the link 404s. For reference, I've found an old copy of
the project here:

In llvm-mode, with electric-pair-mode turned on, typing a literal '['
would print out '[[', and '(' would print a '(('. This was a very
annoying bug caused by overzealous syntax-table entries: the parens are
already part of the '(' and ')' class by default. Fix this.
While at it, notice that i32, i64, i1 etc. are not font-locked despite a
clear intent to do so. The issue is that regexp-opt doesn't accept
regular expressions. So, spell out the common literal integers with
different widths.

Propagate whether `MDNode`s are 'distinct' through the other types of IR
(assembly and bitcode). This adds the `distinct` keyword to assembly.
Currently, no one actually calls `MDNode::getDistinct()`, so these nodes
only get created for:
- self-references, which are never uniqued, and
- nodes whose operands are replaced that hit a uniquing collision.
The concept of distinct nodes is still not quite first-class, since
distinct-ness doesn't yet survive across `MapMetadata()`.

and extern_weak_odr. These are the same as the non-odr versions,
except that they indicate that the global will only be overridden
by an *equivalent* global. In C, a function with weak linkage can
be overridden by a function which behaves completely differently.
This means that IP passes have to skip weak functions, since any
deductions made from the function definition might be wrong, since
the definition could be replaced by something completely different
at link time. This is not allowed in C++, thanks to the ODR
(One-Definition-Rule): if a function is replaced by another at
link-time, then the new function must be the same as the original
function. If a language knows that a function or other global can
only be overridden by an equivalent global, it can give it the
weak_odr linkage type, and the optimizers will understand that it
is alright to make deductions based on the function body. The
code generators on the other hand map weak and weak_odr linkage
to the same thing.
