This reverts commit r293970.
After more discussion, this belongs to the linker side and
there is no added value to do it at this level.

When a symbol is not exported outside of the
DSO, it is can be hidden. Usually we try to internalize
as much as possible, but it is not always possible, for
instance a symbol can be referenced outside of the LTO
unit, or there can be cross-module reference in ThinLTO.
This is a recommit of r293912 after fixing build failures,
and a recommit of r293918 after fixing LLD tests.

fixing the same issue in the libLTO API used by ld64 (amongst other)
llvm-svn: 291518
Summary:
Using the linker-supplied list of "preserved" symbols, we can compute
the list of "dead" symbols, i.e. the one that are not reachable from
a "preserved" symbol transitively on the reference graph.
Right now we are using this information to mark these functions as
non-eligible for import.
The impact is two folds:
- Reduction of compile time: we don't import these functions anywhere
or import the function these symbols are calling.
- The limited number of import/export leads to better internalization.

Summary:
When reading the metadata bitcode, create a type declaration when
possible for composite types when we are importing. Doing this in
the bitcode reader saves memory. Also it works naturally in the case
when the type ODR map contains a definition for the same composite type
because it was used in the importing module (buildODRType will
automatically use the existing definition and not create a type
declaration).
For Chromium built with -g2, this reduces the aggregate size of the
generated native object files by 66% (from 31G to 10G). It reduced
the time through the ThinLTO link and backend phases by about 20% on
my machine.

Summary:
The motivation is to support better the -object_path_lto option on
Darwin. The linker needs to write down the generate object files on
disk for later use by lldb or dsymutil (debug info are not present
in the final binary). We're moving this into libLTO so that we can
be smarter when a cache is enabled and hard-link when possible
instead of duplicating the files.

Summary:
We have always speculatively promoted all renamable local values
(except const non-address taken variables) for both the exporting
and importing module. We would then internalize them back based on
the ThinLink results if they weren't actually exported. This is
inefficient, and results in unnecessary renames. It also meant we
had to check the non-renamability of a value in the summary, which
was already checked during function importing analysis in the ThinLink.
Made renameModuleForThinLTO (which does the promotion/renaming) instead
use the index when exporting, to avoid unnecessary renames/promotions.
For importing modules, we can simply promoted all values as any local
we import by definition is exported and needs promotion.
This required changes to the method used by the FunctionImport pass
(only invoked from 'opt' for testing) and when invoked from llvm-link,
since neither does a ThinLink. We simply conservatively mark all locals
in the index as promoted, which preserves the current aggressive
promotion behavior.
I also needed to change an llvm-lto based test where we had previously
been aggressively promoting values that weren't importable (aliasees),
but now will not promote.

The functions getBitcodeTargetTriple(), isBitcodeContainingObjCCategory(),
getBitcodeProducerString() and hasGlobalValueSummary() now return errors
via their return value rather than via the diagnostic handler.
To make this work, re-implement these functions using non-member functions
so that they can be used without the LLVMContext required by BitcodeReader.

Summary:
Split ReaderWriter.h which contains the APIs into both the BitReader and
BitWriter libraries into BitcodeReader.h and BitcodeWriter.h.
This is to address Chandler's concern about sharing the same API header
between multiple libraries (BitReader and BitWriter). That concern is
why we create a single bitcode library in our downstream build of clang,
which led to r286297 being reverted as it added a dependency that
created a cycle only when there is a single bitcode library (not two as
in upstream).

Summary:
This is a follow-up to D25416. It removes all usages of TimeValue from
llvm/Support library (except for the actual TimeValue declaration), and replaces
them with appropriate usages of std::chrono. To facilitate this, I have added
small utility functions for converting time points and durations into appropriate
OS-specific types (FILETIME, struct timespec, ...).

Changes default backend parallelism from thread::hardware_concurrency to

defaults to the number of physical cores (and will fall back to
thread::hardware_concurrency otherwise). This avoid oversubscribing

We need to add an entry in the combined-index for modules that have
a hash but otherwise empty summary, this is needed so that we can
get the hash for the module.
Also, if no entry is present in the combined index for a module, we

Summary:
This patch improves thinlto importer
by importing 3x larger functions that are called from hot block.
I compared performance with the trunk on spec, and there
were about 2% on povray and 3.33% on milc. These results seems
to be consistant and match the results Teresa got with her simple
heuristic. Some benchmarks got slower but I think they are just
noisy (mcf, xalancbmki, omnetpp)- running the benchmarks again with
more iterations to confirm. Geomean of all benchmarks including the noisy ones
were about +0.02%.
I see much better improvement on google branch with Easwaran patch
for pgo callsite inlining (the inliner actually inline those big functions)
Over all I see +0.5% improvement, and I get +8.65% on povray.
So I guess we will see much bigger change when Easwaran patch will land
(it depends on new pass manager), but it is still worth putting this to trunk
before it.
Implementation details changes:
- Removed CallsiteCount.
- ProfileCount got replaced by Hotness
- hot-import-multiplier is set to 3.0 for now,
didn't have time to tune it up, but I see that we get most of the interesting
functions with 3, so there is no much performance difference with higher, and
binary size doesn't grow as much as with 10.0.

directly produce the index as the value type result.
This requires making the index movable which is straightforward. It
greatly simplifies things by allowing us to completely avoid the builder
API and the layers of abstraction inherent there. Instead both pass
managers can directly construct these when run by value. They still
won't be constructed truly eagerly thanks to the optional in the legacy
PM. The code that directly builds the index can also just share a direct
function.
A notable change here is that the result type of the analysis for the
new PM is no longer a reference type. This was really problematic when
making changes to how we handle result types to make our interface
requirements *much* more strict and precise. But I think this is an
overall improvement.

Summary:
Multiple APIs were taking a StringMap for the ImportLists containing
the entries for for all the modules while operating on a single entry
for the current module. Instead we can pass the desired ModuleImport
directly. Also some of the APIs were not const, I believe just to be
able to use operator[] on the StringMap.

Summary:
Fixed a bug in ThinLTOCodeGenerator's temp file dumping. The Twine
needs to be passed directly as an argument, or a copy saved into a
std::string.
It doesn't seem there are any consumers of this, so I added a new option
to llvm-lto to enable saving of temp files during ThinLTO, and augmented
a test to use it to check post-import but pre-opt bitcode.

We currently do not touch a symbol's linkage in the case where a definition
has a single copy. However, this code is effectively unnecessary: either
the definition is not exported, in which case the internalize phase sets
its linkage to internal, or it is exported, in which case we need to promote
linkage to weak. Those two cases are already handled by existing code.
I believe that the only real functional change here is in the case where we
have a single definition which does not prevail (e.g. because the definition
in a native object file prevails). In that case we now lower linkage to
available_externally following the existing code path for that case.
As a result we can remove the isExported function parameter from the
thinLTOResolveWeakForLinkerInIndex function.

Move the now index-based ODR resolution and internalization routines out
of ThinLTOCodeGenerator.cpp and into either LTO.cpp (index-based
analysis) or FunctionImport.cpp (index-driven optimizations).
This is to enable usage by other linkers.
llvm-svn: 270698
Summary:
This patch changes the ODR resolution and internalization to be based on
updates to the Index, which are consumed by the backend portion of the
transformations.
It will be followed by an NFC change to move these out of libLTO's
ThinLTOCodeGenerator so that it can be used by other linkers
(gold and lld) and by ThinLTO distributed backends.
The global summary-based portions use callbacks so that the client can
determine the prevailing copy and other information in a client-specific
way. Eventually, with the API being developed in D20268, these may be
modified to use information such as symbol resolutions, supplied by the
clients to the API.

This is a compile time optimization: keeping a large file to process
at the end hurts parallelism.
The heurisitic used right now is the input buffer size, however we
may want to consider the number of functions to import or the
different number of files to load for importing as well.
