Sanjoy Das ba74e645d8 [PlaceSafepoints] New attributes for patchable statepoints.
Summary:
This patch teaches the PlaceSafepoints pass about two `CallSite`
function attributes:

 * "statepoint-id": if the string value of this attribute can be parsed
   as an integer, then it is propagated to the ID parameter of the
   statepoint created.

 * "statepoint-num-patch-bytes": if the string value of this attribute
   can be parsed as an integer, then it is propagated to the `num patch
   bytes` parameter of the statepoint created.

This change intentionally does not assert on a malformed value for these
attributes, given that they're not "official" attributes.

Summary:
This adds three Function methods to handle function entry counts:
setEntryCount() and getEntryCount().

Entry counts are stored under the MD_prof metadata node with the name
"function_entry_count". They are unsigned 64 bit values set by profilers
(instrumentation and sample profiler changes coming up).

Added documentation for new profile metadata and tests.

Sanjoy Das a1d39ba940 [Statepoints] Support for "patchable" statepoints.
Summary:
This change adds two new parameters to the statepoint intrinsic, `i64 id`
and `i32 num_patch_bytes`.  `id` gets propagated to the ID field
in the generated StackMap section.  If the `num_patch_bytes` is
non-zero then the statepoint is lowered to `num_patch_bytes` bytes of
nops instead of a call (the spill and reload code remains unchanged).
A non-zero `num_patch_bytes` is useful in situations where a language
runtime requires complete control over how a call is lowered.

This change brings statepoints one step closer to patchpoints.  With
some additional work (that is not part of this patch) it should be
possible to get rid of `TargetOpcode::STATEPOINT` altogether.

PlaceSafepoints generates `statepoint` wrappers with `id` set to
`0xABCDEF00` (the old default value for the ID reported in the stackmap)
and `num_patch_bytes` set to `0`.  This can be made more sophisticated
later.

Pat Gavlin cc0431d1c0 Extend the statepoint intrinsic to allow statepoints to be marked as transitions from GC-aware code to code that is not GC-aware.
This changes the shape of the statepoint intrinsic from:

  @llvm.experimental.gc.statepoint(anyptr target, i32 # call args, i32 unused, ...call args, i32 # deopt args, ...deopt args, ...gc args)

to:

  @llvm.experimental.gc.statepoint(anyptr target, i32 # call args, i32 flags, ...call args, i32 # transition args, ...transition args, i32 # deopt args, ...deopt args, ...gc args)

This extension offers the backend the opportunity to insert (somewhat) arbitrary code to manage the transition from GC-aware code to code that is not GC-aware and back.

In order to support the injection of transition code, this extension wraps the STATEPOINT ISD node generated by the usual lowering lowering with two additional nodes: GC_TRANSITION_START and GC_TRANSITION_END. The transition arguments that were passed passed to the intrinsic (if any) are lowered and provided as operands to these nodes and may be used by the backend during code generation.

Eventually, the lowering of the GC_TRANSITION_{START,END} nodes should be informed by the GC strategy in use for the function containing the intrinsic call; for now, these nodes are instead replaced with no-ops.

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith a9308c49ef IR: Give 'DI' prefix to debug info metadata
Finish off PR23080 by renaming the debug info IR constructs from `MD*`
to `DI*`.  The last of the `DIDescriptor` classes were deleted in
r235356, and the last of the related typedefs removed in r235413, so
this has all baked for about a week.

Note: If you have out-of-tree code (like a frontend), I recommend that
you get everything compiling and tests passing with the *previous*
commit before updating to this one.  It'll be easier to keep track of
what code is using the `DIDescriptor` hierarchy and what you've already
updated, and I think you're extremely unlikely to insert bugs.  YMMV of
course.

Back to *this* commit: I did this using the rename-md-di-nodes.sh
upgrade script I've attached to PR23080 (both code and testcases) and
filtered through clang-format-diff.py.  I edited the tests for
test/Assembler/invalid-generic-debug-node-*.ll by hand since the columns
were off-by-three.  It should work on your out-of-tree testcases (and
code, if you've followed the advice in the previous paragraph).

Some of the tests are in badly named files now (e.g.,
test/Assembler/invalid-mdcompositetype-missing-tag.ll should be
'dicompositetype'); I'll come back and move the files in a follow-up
commit.

Sanjoy Das 31ea6d1590 [IR] Introduce a dereferenceable_or_null(N) attribute.
Summary:
If a pointer is marked as dereferenceable_or_null(N), LLVM assumes it
is either `null` or `dereferenceable(N)` or both.  This change only
introduces the attribute and adds a token test case for the `llvm-as`
/ `llvm-dis`.  It does not hook up other parts of the optimizer to
actually exploit the attribute -- those changes will come later.

For pointers in address space 0, `dereferenceable(N)` is now exactly
equivalent to `dereferenceable_or_null(N)` && `nonnull`.  For other
address spaces, `dereferenceable(N)` is potentially weaker than
`dereferenceable_or_null(N)` && `nonnull` (since we could have a null
`dereferenceable(N)` pointer).

The motivating case for this change is Java (and other managed
languages), where pointers are either `null` or dereferenceable up to
some usually known-at-compile-time constant offset.

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith 62e0f454a0 DebugInfo: Remove 'inlinedAt:' field from MDLocalVariable
Remove 'inlinedAt:' from MDLocalVariable.  Besides saving some memory
(variables with it seem to be single largest `Metadata` contributer to
memory usage right now in -g -flto builds), this stops optimization and
backend passes from having to change local variables.

The 'inlinedAt:' field was used by the backend in two ways:

 1. To tell the backend whether and into what a variable was inlined.
 2. To create a unique id for each inlined variable.

Instead, rely on the 'inlinedAt:' field of the intrinsic's `!dbg`
attachment, and change the DWARF backend to use a typedef called
`InlinedVariable` which is `std::pair<MDLocalVariable*, MDLocation*>`.
This `DebugLoc` is already passed reliably through the backend (as
verified by r234021).

This commit removes the check from r234021, but I added a new check
(that will survive) in r235048, and changed the `DIBuilder` API in
r235041 to require a `!dbg` attachment whose 'scope:` is in the same
`MDSubprogram` as the variable's.

If this breaks your out-of-tree testcases, perhaps the script I used
(mdlocalvariable-drop-inlinedat.sh) will help; I'll attach it to PR22778
in a moment.
