Summary:
This patch resolves an issue where the metadata of a loop is not added to the
new loop latch, and not removed from the old loop latch. This issue occurs in
the SplitBlockPredecessors function, which adds a new block in a loop, and
in the case that the block passed into this function is the header of the loop,
the loop can be modified such that the latch of the loop is replaced.
This patch applies to the Loop Simplify pass since it ensures that each loop
has exit blocks which only have predecessors that are inside of the loop. In
the case that this is not true, the pass will create a new exit block for the
loop. This guarantees that the loop preheader/header will dominate the exit blocks.

Summary:
When a loop has multiple backedges, loop simplification attempts to
separate them out into nested loops. This results in incorrect control
flow in the presence of some functions like a GPU barrier. This change
skips the transformation when such "convergent" function calls are
present in the loop body.

Bug: https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39024
The bug reports that a vectorized loop is stepped through 4 times and each step through the loop seemed to show a different path. I found two problems here:
A) An incorrect line number on a preheader block (for.body.preheader) instruction causes a step into the loop before it begins.
B) Instructions in the middle block have different line numbers which give the impression of another iteration.
In this patch I give all of the middle block instructions the line number of the scalar loop latch terminator branch. This seems to provide the smoothest debugging experience because the vectorized loops will always end on this line before dropping into the scalar loop. To solve problem A I have altered llvm::SplitBlockPredecessors to accommodate loop header blocks.
I have set up a separate review D61933 for a fix which is required for this patch.

LoopUtils.cpp contains a utility that splits an loop exit block, so that the new block contains only edges coming from the loop. In the case of nested loops, the exit path for the inner loop might also be the back-edge of the outer loop. The new block which is inserted on this path, is now a latch for the outer loop, and it needs to hold the loop metadata for the outer loop. (The test case gives a more concrete view of the situation.)

In order to set breakpoints on labels and list source code around
labels, we need collect debug information for labels, i.e., label
name, the function label belong, line number in the file, and the
address label located. In order to keep these information in LLVM
IR and to allow backend to generate debug information correctly.
We create a new kind of metadata for labels, DILabel. The format
of DILabel is
!DILabel(scope: !1, name: "foo", file: !2, line: 3)
We hope to keep debug information as much as possible even the
code is optimized. So, we create a new kind of intrinsic for label
metadata to avoid the metadata is eliminated with basic block.
The intrinsic will keep existing if we keep it from optimized out.
The format of the intrinsic is
llvm.dbg.label(metadata !1)
It has only one argument, that is the DILabel metadata. The
intrinsic will follow the label immediately. Backend could get the
label metadata through the intrinsic's parameter.
We also create DIBuilder API for labels to be used by Frontend.
Frontend could use createLabel() to allocate DILabel objects, and use
insertLabel() to insert llvm.dbg.label intrinsic in LLVM IR.

In the function `simplifyOneLoop` we optimistically assume that changes in the
inner loop only affect this very loop and have no impact on its parents. In fact,
after rL329047 has been merged, we can now calculate exit counts for outer
loops which may depend on inner loops. Thus, we need to invalidate all parents
when we do something to a loop.
There is an evidence of incorrect behavior of `simplifyOneLoop`: when we insert
`SE->verify()` check in the end of this funciton, it fails on a bunch of existing
test, in particular:
LLVM :: Transforms/LoopUnroll/peel-loop-not-forced.ll
LLVM :: Transforms/LoopUnroll/peel-loop-pgo.ll
LLVM :: Transforms/LoopUnroll/peel-loop.ll
LLVM :: Transforms/LoopUnroll/peel-loop2.ll
Note that previously we have fixed issues of this variety, see rL328483.
This patch makes this function invalidate the outermost loop properly.

Currently, `getExact` fails if it sees two exit counts in different blocks. There is
no solid reason to do so, given that we only calculate exact non-taken count
for exiting blocks that dominate latch. Using this fact, we can simply take min
out of all exits of all blocks to get the exact taken count.
This patch makes the calculation more optimistic with enforcing our assumption
with asserts. It allows us to calculate exact backedge taken count in trivial loops
like
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
if (i > 50) break;
. . .

Summary:
We are incorrectly updating the LI when loop-simplify generates
dedicated exit blocks for a loop. The issue is that there's an implicit
assumption that the Preds passed into UpdateAnalysisInformation are
reachable. However, this is not true and breaks LI by incorrectly
updating the header of a loop.
One such case is when we generate dedicated exits when the exit block is
a landing pad (through SplitLandingPadPredecessors). There maybe other
cases as well, since we do not guarantee that Preds passed in are
reachable basic blocks.
The added test case shows how loop-simplify breaks LI for the outer loop (and DT in turn)
after we try to generate the LoopSimplifyForm.

This patch teaches SCEV to calculate the maxBECount when the end bound
of the loop can vary. Note that we cannot calculate the exactBECount.
This will only be done when both conditions are satisfied:
1. the loop termination condition is strictly LT.
2. the IV is proven to not overflow.
This provides more information to users of SCEV and can be used to

This was reverted in r306252, but I already had the bug fixed and was
just trying to form a test case.
The original commit factored the logic for forming dedicated exits
inside of LoopSimplify into a helper that could be used elsewhere and
with an approach that required fewer intermediate data structures. See
that commit for full details including the change to the statistic, etc.
The code looked fine to me and my reviewers, but in fact didn't handle
indirectbr correctly -- it left the 'InLoopPredecessors' vector dirty.
If you have code that looks *just* right, you can end up leaking these
predecessors into a subsequent rewrite, and crash deep down when trying
to update PHI nodes for predecessors that don't exist.
I've added an assert that makes the bug much more obvious, and then
changed the code to reliably clear the vector so we don't get this bug
again in some other form as the code changes.
I've also added a test case that *does* manage to catch this while also
giving some nice positive coverage in the face of indirectbr.
The real code that found this came out of what I think is CPython's
interpreter loop, but any code with really "creative" interpreter loops
mixing indirectbr and other exit paths could manage to tickle the bug.
I was hard to reduce the original test case because in addition to
having a particular pattern of IR, the whole thing depends on the order
of the predecessors which is in turn depends on use list order. The test
case added here was designed so that in multiple different predecessor
orderings it should always end up going down the same path and tripping
the same bug. I hope. At least, it tripped it for me without
manipulating the use list order which is better than anything bugpoint
could do...

llvm-svn: 306256
Summary:
When setting debugloc for instructions created in SplitBlockPredecessors, current implementation copies debugloc from the first-non-phi instruction of the original basic block. However, if the first-non-phi instruction is a call for @llvm.dbg.value, the debugloc of the instruction may point the location outside of the block itself. For the example code of
```
1 typedef struct _node_t {
2 struct _node_t *next;
3 } node_t;
4
5 extern node_t *root;
6
7 int foo() {
8 node_t *node, *tmp;
9 int ret = 0;
10
11 node = tmp = root->next;
12 while (node != root) {
13 while (node) {
14 tmp = node;
15 node = node->next;
16 ret++;
17 }
18 }
19
20 return ret;
21 }
```
, below is the basicblock corresponding to line 12 after Reassociate expressions pass:
```
while.cond: ; preds = %while.cond2, %entry
%node.0 = phi %struct._node_t* [ %1, %entry ], [ null, %while.cond2 ]
%ret.0 = phi i32 [ 0, %entry ], [ %ret.1, %while.cond2 ]
tail call void @llvm.dbg.value(metadata i32 %ret.0, i64 0, metadata !19, metadata !20), !dbg !21
tail call void @llvm.dbg.value(metadata %struct._node_t* %node.0, i64 0, metadata !11, metadata !20), !dbg !31
%cmp = icmp eq %struct._node_t* %node.0, %0, !dbg !33
br i1 %cmp, label %while.end5, label %while.cond2, !dbg !35
```
As you can see, the first-non-phi instruction is a call for @llvm.dbg.value, and the debugloc is
```
!21 = !DILocation(line: 9, column: 7, scope: !6)
```
, which is a definition of 'ret' variable and outside of the scope of the basicblock itself. However, current implementation picks up this debugloc for the instructions created in SplitBlockPredecessors. This patch addresses this problem by picking up debugloc from the first-non-phi-non-dbg instruction.

This test seems to have largely been relying on asserts being tripped.
It had a very specific and somewhat uninteresting grep of the output,
but it never really did anything to cause SCEV to be preserved across
loop simplify, certainly not explicitly. And a later addition to it
actually added CHECK lines despite the test never running FileCheck.
Now we actually print SCEV before and after loop simplify to make sure
it is *changing* and being *updated*. Which seems to be much more likely
the point of the test.

Summary:
This hopefully fixes PR28825. The problem now was that a value from the
original loop was used in a subloop, which became a sibling after separation.
While a subloop doesn't need an lcssa phi node, a sibling does, and that's
where we broke LCSSA. The most natural way to fix this now is to simply call
formLCSSA on the original loop: it'll do what we've been doing before plus
it'll cover situations described above.
I think we don't need to run formLCSSARecursively here, and we have an assert
to verify this (I've tried testing it on LLVM testsuite + SPECs). I'd be happy
to be corrected here though.
I also changed a run line in the test from '-lcssa -loop-unroll' to
'-lcssa -loop-simplify -indvars', because it exercises LCSSA
preservation to the same extent, but also makes less unrelated
transformation on the CFG, which makes it easier to verify.

Currently each Function points to a DISubprogram and DISubprogram has a
scope field. For member functions the scope is a DICompositeType. DIScopes
point to the DICompileUnit to facilitate type uniquing.
Distinct DISubprograms (with isDefinition: true) are not part of the type
hierarchy and cannot be uniqued. This change removes the subprograms
list from DICompileUnit and instead adds a pointer to the owning compile
unit to distinct DISubprograms. This would make it easy for ThinLTO to
strip unneeded DISubprograms and their transitively referenced debug info.
Motivation
----------
Materializing DISubprograms is currently the most expensive operation when
doing a ThinLTO build of clang.
We want the DISubprogram to be stored in a separate Bitcode block (or the
same block as the function body) so we can avoid having to expensively
deserialize all DISubprograms together with the global metadata. If a
function has been inlined into another subprogram we need to store a
reference the block containing the inlined subprogram.

that updates LLVM IR testcases to the new format.

Previously, subprograms contained a metadata reference to the function they
described. Because most clients need to get or set a subprogram for a given
function rather than the other way around, this created unneeded inefficiency.
For example, many passes needed to call the function llvm::makeSubprogramMap()
to build a mapping from functions to subprograms, and the IR linker needed to
fix up function references in a way that caused quadratic complexity in the IR
linking phase of LTO.
This change reverses the direction of the edge by storing the subprogram as
function-level metadata and removing DISubprogram's function field.
Since this is an IR change, a bitcode upgrade has been provided.
Fixes PR23367. An upgrade script for textual IR for out-of-tree clients is
attached to the PR.

As a follow-up to r246098, require `DISubprogram` definitions
(`isDefinition: true`) to be 'distinct'. Specifically, add an assembler
check, a verifier check, and bitcode upgrading logic to combat testcase
bitrot after the `DIBuilder` change.
While working on the testcases, I realized that
test/Linker/subprogram-linkonce-weak-odr.ll isn't relevant anymore. Its
purpose was to check for a corner case in PR22792 where two subprogram
definitions match exactly and share the same metadata node. The new
verifier check, requiring that subprogram definitions are 'distinct',
precludes that possibility.
I updated almost all the IR with the following script:
git grep -l -E -e '= !DISubprogram\(.* isDefinition: true' |
grep -v test/Bitcode |
xargs sed -i '' -e 's/= \(!DISubprogram(.*, isDefinition: true\)/= distinct \1/'

Set debug location for terminator instruction in loop backedge block

The personality routine currently lives in the LandingPadInst.
This isn't desirable because:
- All LandingPadInsts in the same function must have the same
personality routine. This means that each LandingPadInst beyond the
first has an operand which produces no additional information.
- There is ongoing work to introduce EH IR constructs other than
LandingPadInst. Moving the personality routine off of any one
particular Instruction and onto the parent function seems a lot better
than have N different places a personality function can sneak onto an
exceptional function.
