Summary:
Clang -fpic defaults to -fno-semantic-interposition (GCC -fpic defaults
to -fsemantic-interposition).
Users need to specify -fsemantic-interposition to get semantic
interposition behavior.
Semantic interposition is currently a best-effort feature. There may
still be some cases where it is not handled well.

LLVM IR recently added a Type parameter to the byval Attribute, so that
when pointers become opaque and no longer have an element type the
information will still be present in IR.
For now the Type parameter is optional (which is why Clang didn't need
this change at the time), but it will become mandatory soon.

Summary:
This change is step three in the series of changes to remove alignment argument from
memcpy/memmove/memset in favour of alignment attributes. Steps:
Step 1) Remove alignment parameter and create alignment parameter attributes for
memcpy/memmove/memset. ( rL322965, rC322964, rL322963 )
Step 2) Expand the IRBuilder API to allow creation of memcpy/memmove with differing
source and dest alignments. ( rL323597 )
Step 3) Update Clang to use the new IRBuilder API.
Step 4) Update Polly to use the new IRBuilder API.
Step 5) Update LLVM passes that create memcpy/memmove calls to use the new IRBuilder API,
and those that use use MemIntrinsicInst::[get|set]Alignment() to use getDestAlignment()
and getSourceAlignment() instead.
Step 6) Remove the single-alignment IRBuilder API for memcpy/memmove, and the
MemIntrinsicInst::[get|set]Alignment() methods.

Summary:
Upstream LLVM is changing the the prototypes of the @llvm.memcpy/memmove/memset
intrinsics. This change updates the Clang tests for this change.
The @llvm.memcpy/memmove/memset intrinsics currently have an explicit argument
which is required to be a constant integer. It represents the alignment of the
dest (and source), and so must be the minimum of the actual alignment of the
two.
This change removes the alignment argument in favour of placing the alignment
attribute on the source and destination pointers of the memory intrinsic call.
For example, code which used to read:
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* %dest, i8* %src, i32 100, i32 4, i1 false)
will now read
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* align 4 %dest, i8* align 4 %src, i32 100, i1 false)
At this time the source and destination alignments must be the same (Step 1).
Step 2 of the change, to be landed shortly, will relax that contraint and allow
the source and destination to have different alignments.

The alias was only ever used on darwin and had some issues there,
and isn't used in practice much. Also fixes a problem with -mno-altivec
not turning off -maltivec.
Also add a diagnostic for faltivec/fno-altivec that directs users to use
maltivec options and include the altivec.h file explicitly.

Currently, for the ppc64--gnu and aarch64 ABIs, we recognize:
typedef __attribute__((__ext_vector_type__(3))) float v3f32;
typedef __attribute__((__ext_vector_type__(16))) char v16i8;
struct HFA {
v3f32 a;
v16i8 b;
};
as an HFA. Since the first type encountered is used as the base type,
we pass the HFA as:
[2 x <3 x float>]
Which leads to incorrect IR (relying on padding values) when the
second field is used.
Instead, explicitly widen the vector (after size rounding) in
isHomogeneousAggregate.

This is a follow on from a similar LLVM commit: r253511.
Note, this was reviewed (and more details are in) http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20151109/312083.html
These intrinsics currently have an explicit alignment argument which is
required to be a constant integer. It represents the alignment of the
source and dest, and so must be the minimum of those.
This change allows source and dest to each have their own alignments
by using the alignment attribute on their arguments. The alignment
argument itself is removed.
The only code change to clang is hidden in CGBuilder.h which now passes
both dest and source alignment to IRBuilder, instead of taking the minimum of
dest and source alignments.

Code in CGCall.cpp that loads up function arguments that need to be
coerced to a different type may in some cases ignore the fact that
the source of the argument is not naturally aligned. This may cause
incorrect code to be generated. In some places in CreateCoercedLoad,
we already have setAlignment calls to address this, but I ran into one
where it was missing, causing wrong code generation on SystemZ.
However, in that location, we do not actually know what alignment of
the source location we can rely on; the callers do not pass anything
to this routine. This is already an issue in other places in
CreateCoercedLoad; and the same problem exists for CreateCoercedStore.
To avoid pessimising code, and to fix the FIXMEs already in place,
this patch also adds an alignment argument to the CreateCoerced*
routines and uses it instead of forcing an alignment of 1. The
callers are changed to pass in the best information they have.
This actually requires changes in a number of existing test cases
since we now get better alignment in many places.

Reuse the PPC64 HVA detection algorithm for ARM and AArch64. This is a
nice code deduplication, since they are roughly identical. A few virtual
method extension points are needed to understand how big an HVA can be
and what element types it can have for a given architecture.
Also make the record expansion code work in the presence of non-virtual
bases.

In addition to enabling ELFv2 homogeneous aggregate handling,
LLVM support to pass array types directly also enables a performance
enhancement. We can now pass (non-homogeneous) aggregates that fit
fully in registers as direct integer arrays, using an element type
to encode the alignment requirement (that would otherwise go to the
"byval align" field).
This is preferable since "byval" forces the back-end to write the
aggregate out to the stack, even if it could be passed fully in
registers. This is particularly annoying on ELFv2, if there is
no parameter save area available, since we then need to allocate
space on the callee's stack just to hold those aggregates.
Note that to implement this optimization, this patch does not attempt
to fully anticipate register allocation rules as (defined in the
ABI and) implemented in the back-end. Instead, the patch is simply
passing *any* aggregate passed by value using the array mechanism
if its size is up to 64 bytes. This means that some of those will
end up being passed in stack slots anyway, but the generated code
shouldn't be any worse either. (*Large* aggregates remain passed
using "byval" to enable optimized copying via memcpy etc.)

This patch implements clang support for the PowerPC ELFv2 ABI.
Together with a series of companion patches in LLVM, this makes
clang/LLVM fully usable on powerpc64le-linux.
Most of the ELFv2 ABI changes are fully implemented on the LLVM side.
On the clang side, we only need to implement some changes in how
aggregate types are passed by value. Specifically, we need to:
- pass (and return) "homogeneous" floating-point or vector aggregates in
FPRs and VRs (this is similar to the ARM homogeneous aggregate ABI)
- return aggregates of up to 16 bytes in one or two GPRs
The second piece is trivial to implement in any case. To implement
the first piece, this patch makes use of infrastructure recently
enabled in the LLVM PowerPC back-end to support passing array types
directly, where the array element type encodes properties needed to
handle homogeneous aggregates correctly.
Specifically, the array element type encodes:
- whether the parameter should be passed in FPRs, VRs, or just
GPRs/stack slots (for float / vector / integer element types,
respectively)
- what the alignment requirements of the parameter are when passed in
GPRs/stack slots (8 for float / 16 for vector / the element type
size for integer element types) -- this corresponds to the
"byval align" field
With this support in place, the clang part simply needs to *detect*
whether an aggregate type implements a float / vector homogeneous
aggregate as defined by the ELFv2 ABI, and if so, pass/return it
as array type using the appropriate float / vector element type.
