Summary:
Fence instructions are currently marked as `ModRef` for all memory locations.
We can improve this for constant memory locations (such as constant globals),
since fence instructions cannot modify these locations.
This helps us to forward constant loads across fences (added test case in GVN).
There were no changes in behaviour for similar test cases in early-cse and licm.

Summary:
Memory Dependence Analysis was limited to return only local dependencies
for invariant.group handling. Now it returns NonLocal when it finds it
and then by asking getNonLocalPointerDependency we get found dep.
Thanks to this we are able to devirtualize loops!
void indirect(A &a, int n) {
for (int i = 0 ; i < n; i++)
a.foo();
}
void test(int n) {
A a;
indirect(a);
}
After inlining a.foo() will be changed to direct call, even if foo and A::A()
is external (but only if vtable definition is be available).

Summary:
gep 0, 0 is equivalent to bitcast. LLVM canonicalizes it
to getelementptr because it make SROA can then handle it.
Simple case like
void g(A &a) {
z(a);
if (glob)
a.foo();
}
void testG() {
A a;
g(a);
}
was not devirtualized with -fstrict-vtable-pointers because luck of
handling for gep 0 in Memory Dependence Analysis

Summary:
This change adds some verification in the IR verifier around struct path
TBAA metadata.
Other than some basic sanity checks (e.g. we get constant integers where
we expect constant integers), this checks:
- That by the time an struct access tuple `(base-type, offset)` is
"reduced" to a scalar base type, the offset is `0`. For instance, in
C++ you can't start from, say `("struct-a", 16)`, and end up with
`("int", 4)` -- by the time the base type is `"int"`, the offset
better be zero. In particular, a variant of this invariant is needed
for `llvm::getMostGenericTBAA` to be correct.
- That there are no cycles in a struct path.
- That struct type nodes have their offsets listed in an ascending
order.
- That when generating the struct access path, you eventually reach the
access type listed in the tbaa tag node.

In the case of a fully redundant load LI dominated by an equivalent load V, GVN
should always preserve the original debug location of V. Otherwise, we risk to
introduce an incorrect stepping.
If V has debug info, then clearly it should not be modified. If V has a null
debugloc, then it is still potentially incorrect to propagate LI's debugloc
because LI may not post-dominate V.

[recommitting after the fix in r288307]
This requires some changes to the opt-diag API. Hal and I have
discussed this at the Dev Meeting and came up with a streaming delimiter
(setExtraArgs) to solve this.
Arguments after this delimiter are only included in the optimization
records and not in the remarks printed in the compiler output. (Note,
how in the test the content of the YAML file changes but the remarks on
the compiler output don't.)
This implements the green GVN message with a bug fix at line
http://lab.llvm.org:8080/artifacts/opt-view_test-suite/build/SingleSource/Benchmarks/Dhrystone/CMakeFiles/dry.dir/html/_org_test-suite_SingleSource_Benchmarks_Dhrystone_dry.c.html#L446
The fix is that now we properly include the constant value in the
message: "load of type i32 eliminated in favor of 7"

If LoopInfo is available during GVN, BasicAA will use it. However
MergeBlockIntoPredecessor does not update LI as it merges blocks.
This didn't use to cause problems because LI was freed before
GVN/BasicAA. Now with OptimizationRemarkEmitter, the lifetime of LI is
extended so LI needs to be kept up-to-date during GVN.

There's no agreement about this patch. I personally find the
PRE machinery of the current GVN hard enough to reason about
that I'm not sure I'll try to land this again, instead of working
on the rewrite).

In theory this could be generalized to move anything where
we prove the operands are available, but that would require
rewriting PRE. As NewGVN will hopefully come soon, and we're
trying to rewrite PRE in terms of NewGVN+MemorySSA, it's probably
not worth spending too much time on it. Fix provided by
Daniel Berlin!

Summary:
While walking defs of pointer operands we were assuming that the pointer
size would remain constant. This is not true, because addresspacecast
instructions may cast the pointer to an address space with a different
pointer width.
This partial reverts r282612, which was a more conservative solution
to this problem.

Pointers in different addrspaces can have different sizes, so it's not valid to look through addrspace cast calculating base and offset for a value.
This is similar to D13008.

When loading or storing in a field of a struct like "a.b.c", GVN is able to
detect the equivalent expressions, and GVN-hoist would fail in the code
generation. This is because the GEPs are not hoisted as scalar operations to
avoid moving the GEPs too far from their ld/st instruction when the ld/st is not
movable. So we end up having to generate code for the GEP of a ld/st when we
move the ld/st. In the case of a GEP referring to another GEP as in "a.b.c" we
need to code generate all the GEPs necessary to make all the operands available
at the new location for the ld/st. With this patch we recursively walk through
the GEP operands checking whether all operands are available, and in the case of
a GEP operand, it recursively makes all its operands available. Code generation
happens from the inner GEPs out until reaching the GEP that appears as an
operand of the ld/st.

the two alignments when hoisting. Same deal for stores.
For allocas, use the maximum of the two allocas.

Do not clone stored values unless they are GEPs that are special cased to avoid

While debugging GVNHoist, I found it confusing that the entries in a
VNtoInsns were not always value numbers. They _usually_ were except for
StoreInst in which case they were a hash of two different value numbers.
This leads to two observations:
- It is more difficult to debug things when the semantic contents of
VNtoInsns changes over time.
- Using a single value number is not much cheaper, the value of
VNtoInsns is a SmallVector.
- It is not immediately clear what the algorithm would do if there were
hash collisions in the StoreInst case.
Using a DenseMap of std::pair sidesteps all of this.
N.B. The changes in the test were due their sensitivity to the
iteration order of VNtoInsns which has changed.
