Summary:
Support for this option is needed for building Linux kernel.
This is a very frequently requested feature by kernel developers.
More details : https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/4/601
GCC option description for -fdelete-null-pointer-checks:
This Assume that programs cannot safely dereference null pointers,
and that no code or data element resides at address zero.
-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks is the inverse of this implying that
null pointer dereferencing is not undefined.
This feature is implemented in LLVM IR in this CL as the function attribute
"null-pointer-is-valid"="true" in IR (Under review at D47894).
The CL updates several passes that assumed null pointer dereferencing is
undefined to not optimize when the "null-pointer-is-valid"="true"
attribute is present.

In particular, when asked to print a MemoryAccess, we'll now print where
defs are optimized to, and we'll print optimized access types.
This patch also introduces an operator<< to make printing AliasResults
easier.

Summary:
After r332167 we started to sort the IDF blocks inside IDF calculation, so
there is no need to re-sort them on the user site. The test changes are due to
a slightly different order we're using now (originally we used DFSInNumber and
now the blocks are sorted by a pair (LevelFromRoot, DFSInNumber)).

It turned out that readonly argmemonly is not enough.
store 42, %p
%b = barrier(%p)
store 43, %b
the first store is dead, but because barrier was marked as
reading argument memory, it was considered alive. With
inaccessiblememonly it doesn't read the argument, but
it also can't be CSEd.

We use a `DenseMap<MemoryLocOrCall, MemlocStackInfo>` to keep track of
prior work when optimizing uses in MemorySSA. Because we weren't
accounting for callsite arguments in either the hash code or equality
tests for `MemoryLocOrCall`s, we optimized uses too aggressively in
some rare cases.
Fix by Daniel Berlin.
Should fix PR36883.

Summary:
Make MemorySSA allow reordering of two loads that may alias, when one is volatile.
This makes MemorySSA less conservative and behaving the same as the AliasSetTracker.
For more context, see D16875.
LLVM language reference: "The optimizers must not change the number of volatile operations or change their order of execution relative to other volatile operations. The optimizers may change the order of volatile operations relative to non-volatile operations. This is not Java’s “volatile” and has no cross-thread synchronization behavior."

llvm.invariant.group.barrier may accept pointers to arbitrary address space.
This patch let it accept pointers to i8 in any address space and returns
pointer to i8 in the same address space.

Summary:
Readnone attribute would cause CSE of two barriers with
the same argument, which is invalid by example:
struct Base {
virtual int foo() { return 42; }
};
struct Derived1 : Base {
int foo() override { return 50; }
};
struct Derived2 : Base {
int foo() override { return 100; }
};
void foo() {
Base *x = new Base{};
new (x) Derived1{};
int a = std::launder(x)->foo();
new (x) Derived2{};
int b = std::launder(x)->foo();
}
Here 2 calls of std::launder will produce @llvm.invariant.group.barrier,
which would be merged into one call, causing devirtualization
to devirtualize second call into Derived1::foo() instead of
Derived2::foo()

Analysis, it has Analysis passes, and once NewGVN is made an Analysis,
this removes the cross dependency from Analysis to Transform/Utils.
