* Add a "landing pad" attribute to the BasicBlock.
* Modify the bitcode reader and writer to handle said attribute.
Later: The verifier will ensure that the landing pad attribute is used in the
appropriate manner. I.e., not applied to the entry block, and applied only to
basic blocks that are branched to via a `dispatch' instruction.
(This is a work-in-progress.)

Add a unnamed_addr bit to global variables and functions. This will be used
to indicate that the address is not significant and therefore the constant
or function can be merged with others.
If an optimization pass can show that an address is not used, it can set this.
Examples of things that can have this set by the FE are globals created to
hold string literals and C++ constructors.
Adding unnamed_addr to a non-const global should have no effect unless
an optimization can transform that global into a constant.
Aliases are not allowed to have unnamed_addr since I couldn't figure
out any use for it.

zextOrTrunc(), and APSInt methods extend(), extOrTrunc() and new method
trunc(), to be const and to return a new value instead of modifying the
object in place.

It's similar to "linker_private_weak", but it's known that the address of the
object is not taken. For instance, functions that had an inline definition, but
the compiler decided not to inline it. Note, unlike linker_private and
linker_private_weak, linker_private_weak_def_auto may have only default
visibility. The symbols are removed by the linker from the final linked image
(executable or dynamic library).

Objective-C metadata types which should be marked as "weak", but which the
linker will remove upon final linkage. However, this linkage isn't specific to
Objective-C.
For example, the "objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc" symbol is defined like this:
.globl l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
.weak_definition l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
.section __DATA, __objc_msgrefs, coalesced
.align 3
l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc:
.quad _objc_msgSend_fixup
.quad L_OBJC_METH_VAR_NAME_1
This is different from the "linker_private" linkage type, because it can't have
the metadata defined with ".weak_definition".
Currently only supported on Darwin platforms.

This time it's for real! I am going to hook this up in the frontends as well.
The inliner has some experimental heuristics for dealing with the inline hint.
When given a -respect-inlinehint option, functions marked with the inline
keyword are given a threshold just above the default for -O3.
We need some experiments to determine if that is the right thing to do.

which reads and prints the .ll file. BC encoding is the
next project. Testcase will go in once that works.

Update testcases that rely on malloc insts being present.
Also prematurely remove MallocInst handling from IndMemRemoval and RaiseAllocations to help pass tests in this incremental step.

code hints that it would be a good idea to inline
a function ("inline" keyword). No functional change
yet; FEs do not emit this and inliner does not use it.
llvm-svn: 80063
"private" symbols which the assember shouldn't strip, but which the linker may
remove after evaluation. This is mostly useful for Objective-C metadata.
This is plumbing, so we don't have a use of it yet. More to come, etc.

This adds location info for all llvm_unreachable calls (which is a macro now) in
!NDEBUG builds.
In NDEBUG builds location info and the message is off (it only prints
"UREACHABLE executed").
llvm-svn: 75640
Make llvm_unreachable take an optional string, thus moving the cerr<< out of
line.
LLVM_UNREACHABLE is now a simple wrapper that makes the message go away for
NDEBUG builds.
