Summary:
This patch improves Inliner to provide causes/reasons for negative inline decisions.
1. It adds one new message field to InlineCost to report causes for Always and Never instances. All Never and Always instantiations must provide a simple message.
2. Several functions that used to return the inlining results as boolean are changed to return InlineResult which carries the cause for negative decision.
3. Changed remark priniting and debug output messages to provide the additional messages and related inline cost.
4. Adjusted tests for changed printing.

Summary:
Currently all type ids are emitted into the index file when it is
written. For distributed ThinLTO, that meant that all type ids were
being duplicated into every single distributed index file, regardless of
whether they were referenced, leading to huge amounts of unnecessary
duplication and size bloat.
Keep track of the type id GUIDs actually referenced by the GV summary
records being emitted, and only emit those type IDs.
Add a new test, and fix test/Assembler/thinlto-summary.ll so that all
type ids are referenced to prevent deletion in that test.

Summary:
Currently LowerTypeTests emits jumptable entries for all live external
and address-taken functions; however, we could limit the number of
functions that we emit entries for significantly.
For Cross-DSO CFI, we continue to emit jumptable entries for all
exported definitions. In the non-Cross-DSO CFI case, we only need to
emit jumptable entries for live functions that are address-taken in live
functions. This ignores exported functions and functions that are only
address taken in dead functions. This change uses ThinLTO summary data
(now emitted for all modules during ThinLTO builds) to determine
address-taken and liveness info.
The logic for emitting jumptable entries is more conservative in the
regular LTO case because we don't have summary data in the case of
monolithic LTO builds; however, once summaries are emitted for all LTO
builds we can unify the Thin/monolithic LTO logic to only use summaries
to determine the liveness of address taking functions.
This change is a partial fix for PR37474. It reduces the build size for
nacl_helper by ~2-3%, the reduction is due to nacl_helper compiling in
lots of unused code and unused functions that are address taken in dead
functions no longer being being considered live due to emitted jumptable
references. The reduction for chromium is ~0.1-0.2%.

Summary:
I noticed that the .imports files emitted for distributed ThinLTO
backends do not have consistent ordering. This is because StringMap
iteration order is not guaranteed to be deterministic. Since we already
have a std::map with this information, used when emitting the individual
index files (ModuleToSummariesForIndex), use it for the imports files as
well.
This issue is likely causing some unnecessary rebuilds of the ThinLTO
backends in our distributed build system as the imports files are inputs
to those backends.

by the upcoming summary parser patch, where we will read value names

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.

Summary:
If there's a callees metadata attached to the indirect call instruction, add CallGraphEdges to the callees mentioned in the metadata when computing FunctionSummary.
* Why this is necessary:
Consider following code example:
```
(foo.c)
static int f1(int x) {...}
static int f2(int x);
static int (*fptr)(int) = f2;
static int f2(int x) {
if (x) fptr=f1; return f1(x);
}
int foo(int x) {
(*fptr)(x); // !callees metadata of !{i32 (i32)* @f1, i32 (i32)* @f2} would be attached to this call.
}
(bar.c)
int bar(int x) {
return foo(x);
}
```
At LTO time when `foo.o` is imported into `bar.o`, function `foo` might be inlined into `bar` and PGO-guided indirect call promotion will run after that. If the profile data tells that the promotion of `@f1` or `@f2` is beneficial, the optimizer will check if the "promoted" `@f1` or `@f2` (such as `@f1.llvm.0` or `@f2.llvm.0`) is available. Without this patch, importing `!callees` metadata would only add promoted declarations of `@f1` and `@f2` to the `bar.o`, but still the optimizer will assume that the function is available and perform the promotion. The result of that is link failure with `undefined reference to @f1.llvm.0`.
This patch fixes this problem by adding callees in the `!callees` metadata to CallGraphEdges so that their definition would be properly imported into.
One may ask that there already is a logic to add indirect call promotion targets to be added to CallGraphEdges. However, if profile data says "indirect call promotion is only beneficial under a certain inline context", the logic wouldn't work. In the code example above, if profile data is like
```
bar:1000000:100000
1:100000
1: foo:100000
1: 100000 f1:100000
```
, Computing FunctionSummary for `foo.o` wouldn't add `foo->f1` to CallGraphEdges. (Also, it is at least "possible" that one can provide profile data to only link step but not to compilation step).

This is similar to r322317, but for visibility. It is not as neat

The idea is the same as the previous change, make the transition to
explicit dso_local easier for the frontends. With this they only have
to add dso_local to symbols where we need some external information to
decide if it is dso_local (like it being part of an ELF executable).
llvm-svn: 322806
While updating clang tests for having clang set dso_local I noticed
that:
- There are *a lot* of tests to update.
- Many of the updates are redundant.
They are redundant because a GV is "obviously dso_local". This patch
starts formalizing that a bit by requiring that internal and private
GVs be dso_local too. Since they all are, we don't have to print
dso_local to the textual representation, making it a bit more compact

Summary:
With DebugTypeODRUniquing enabled, during IR linking debug metadata
in the destination module may be reached from the source module.
This means that ConstantAsMetadata nodes (e.g. on DITemplateValueParameter)
may contain a value the destination module. When trying to map such
metadata nodes, we will attempt to map a GV already in the dest module.
linkGlobalValueProto will end up with a source GV that is the same as
the dest GV as well as the new GV. Trying to access the TypeMap for the
source GV type, which is actually a dest GV type, hits an assertion
since it appears that we have mapped into the source module (because the
type is the value not a key into the map).
Detect that we don't need to access the TypeMap in this case, since
there is no need to create a bitcast from the new GV to the source GV
type as they GV are the same.

because one object had undefined global symbol for routine and second
object contained local definition instead of global.

Summary:
Until a more advanced version of importing can be implemented for
aliases (one that imports an alias as an available_externally definition
of the aliasee), skip the narrow subset of cases that was possible but
came at a cost: aliases of linkonce_odr functions could be imported
because the linkonce_odr function could be safely duplicated from the
source module. This came/comes at the cost of not being able to 'home'
imported linkonce functions (they had to be emitted linkonce_odr in all
the destination modules (even if they weren't used by an alias) rather
than as available_externally - causing extra object size).
Tangentially, this also was the only reason ThinLTO would emit multiple
CUs in to the resulting DWARF - which happens to be a problem for
Fission (there's a fix for this in GDB but not released yet, etc).
(actually it's not the only reason - but I'm sending a patch to fix the
other reason shortly)
There's no reason to believe this particularly narrow alias importing
was especially/meaningfully important, only that it was /possible/ to
implement in this way. When a more general solution is done, it should
still satisfy the DWARF concerns above, since the import will still be
available_externally, and thus not create extra CUs.
Since now all aliases are treated the same, I removed/simplified some
test cases since they were testing corner cases where there are no
longer any corners.

Summary: Currently the ThinLTO minimized bitcode file only strip the debug info, but there is still a lot of information in the minimized bit code file that will be not used for thin linker. In this patch, most of the extra information is striped to reduce the minimized bitcode file. Now only ModuleVersion, ModuleInfo, ModuleGlobalValueSummary, ModuleHash, Symtab and Strtab are left. Now the minimized bitcode file size is reduced to 15%-30% of the debug info stripped bitcode file size.

DIImportedEntity has a line number, but not a file field. To determine
the decl_line/decl_file we combine the line number from the
DIImportedEntity with the file from the DIImportedEntity's scope. This
does not work correctly when the parent scope is a DINamespace or a
DIModule, both of which do not have a source file.
This patch adds a file field to DIImportedEntity to unambiguously
identify the source location of the using/import declaration. Most
testcase updates are mechanical, the interesting one is the removal of
the FIXME in test/DebugInfo/Generic/namespace.ll.

Summary:
As we teach Clang to use ThinkLTO + new PM, it's good for the users to
inject through Config, instead of setting a flag in the LTOBackend
library. Move the flag to llvm-lto2.
As it moves to llvm-lto2, a new name -use-new-pm seems simpler and as
clear.

Based on the original patch by Davide, but I've adjusted the API exposed
to just be different entry points rather than exposing more state
parameters. I've factored all the common logic out so that we don't have
any duplicate pipelines, we just stitch them together in different ways.
I think this makes the build easier to reason about and understand.
This adds a direct method for getting the module simplification pipeline
as well as a method to get the optimization pipeline. While not my
express goal, this seems nice and gives a good place comment about the
restrictions that are imposed on them.
I did make some minor changes to the way the pipelines are structured
here, but hopefully not ones that are significant or controversial:
1) I sunk the PGO indirect call promotion to only be run when we have
PGO enabled (or as part of the special ThinLTO pipeline).
2) I made the extra GlobalOpt run in ThinLTO just happen all the time
and at a slightly more powerful place (before we remove available
externaly functions). This seems like general goodness and not a big
compile time sink, so it didn't make sense to *only* use it in
ThinLTO. Fewer differences in the pipeline makes everything simpler
IMO.
3) I hoisted the ThinLTO stop point pre-link above the the RPO function
attr inference. The RPO inference won't infer anything terribly
meaningful pre-link (recursiveness?) so it didn't make a lot of
sense. But if the placement of RPO inference starts to matter, we
should move it to the canonicalization phase anyways which seems like
a better place for it (and there is a FIXME to this effect!). But
that seemed a bridge too far for this patch.
If we ever need to parameterize these pipelines more heavily, we can
always sink the logic to helper functions with parameters to keep those
parameters out of the public API. But the changes above seemed minor
that we could possible get away without the parameters entirely.
I added support for parsing 'thinlto' and 'thinlto-pre-link' names in
pass pipelines to make it easy to test these routines and play with them
in larger pipelines. I also added a really basic manifest of passes test
that will show exactly how the pipelines behave and work as well as
making updates to them clear.
Lastly, this factoring does introduce a nesting layer of module pass
managers in the default pipeline. I don't think this is a big deal and
the flexibility of decoupling the pipelines seems easily worth it.

compatible target triple
Currently, an assertion fails in ThinLTOCodeGenerator::addModule when
the target triple of the module being added doesn't match that of the
one stored in TMBuilder. This patch relaxes the constraint and makes
changes to allow target triples that only differ in their version
numbers on Apple platforms, similarly to what r228999 did.

Add a top-level STRTAB block containing a string table blob, and start storing
strings for module codes FUNCTION, GLOBALVAR, ALIAS, IFUNC and COMDAT in
the string table.
This change allows us to share names between globals and comdats as well
as between modules, and improves the efficiency of loading bitcode files by
no longer using a bit encoding for symbol names. Once we start writing the
irsymtab to the bitcode file we will also be able to share strings between
it and the module.
On my machine, link time for Chromium for Linux with ThinLTO decreases by
about 7% for no-op incremental builds or about 1% for full builds. Total
bitcode file size decreases by about 3%.

Move LTO::run() to a "run" subcommand so that we can introduce new subcommands
for testing different parts of the LTO implementation.
This doesn't use llvm::cl subcommands because it doesn't appear to be currently
possible to pass an argument not associated with a subcommand to a subcommand
(e.g. -lto-use-new-pm, -mcpu=yonah).

Summary:
The cumulative size of the bitcode files for a very large application
can be huge, particularly with -g. In a distributed build environment,
all of these files must be sent to the remote build node that performs
the thin link step, and this can exceed size limits.
The thin link actually only needs the summary along with a bitcode
symbol table. Until we have a proper bitcode symbol table, simply
stripping the debug metadata results in significant size reduction.
Add support for an option to additionally emit minimized bitcode
modules, just for use in the thin link step, which for now just strips
all debug metadata. I plan to add a cc1 option so this can be invoked
easily during the compile step.
However, care must be taken to ensure that these minimized thin link
bitcode files produce the same index as with the original bitcode files,
as these original bitcode files will be used in the backends.
Specifically:
1) The module hash used for caching is typically produced by hashing the
written bitcode, and we want to include the hash that would correspond
to the original bitcode file. This is because we want to ensure that
changes in the stripped portions affect caching. Added plumbing to emit
the same module hash in the minimized thin link bitcode file.
2) The module paths in the index are constructed from the module ID of
each thin linked bitcode, and typically is automatically generated from
the input file path. This is the path used for finding the modules to
import from, and obviously we need this to point to the original bitcode
files. Added gold-plugin support to take a suffix replacement during the
thin link that is used to override the identifier on the MemoryBufferRef
constructed from the loaded thin link bitcode file. The assumption is
that the build system can specify that the minimized bitcode file has a
name that is similar but uses a different suffix (e.g. out.thinlink.bc
instead of out.o).
Added various tests to ensure that we get identical index files out of
the thin link step.

This is an ELF-specific thing that adds SHF_LINK_ORDER to the global's section
pointing to the metadata argument's section. The effect of that is a reverse dependency
between sections for the linker GC.
!associated does not change the behavior of global-dce. The global
may also need to be added to llvm.compiler.used.
Since SHF_LINK_ORDER is per-section, !associated effectively enables
fdata-sections for the affected globals, the same as comdats do.

as much as possible, but it is not always possible, for
instance a symbol can be referenced outside of the LTO
