Without actually parsing a type it is difficult to perdict where
the type definition ends. In other words, instead of expecting
the user of the parser API to hand over only the relevant bits
of the string being parsed, take the whole string, parse the type,
and get back the number of characters that have been read.
This will be used by the MIR testing infrastructure.

This is useful for MIR serialization. Indeed generic machine instructions
must have a type and we don't want to duplicate the logic in the MIParser.

This commit extends the 'SlotMapping' structure and includes mappings for named
and numbered types in it. The LLParser is extended accordingly to fill out
those mappings at the end of module parsing.
This information is useful when we want to parse standalone constant values
at a later stage using the 'parseConstantValue' method. The constant values
can be constant expressions, which can contain references to types. In order
to parse such constant values, we have to restore the internal named and
numbered mappings for the types in LLParser, otherwise the parser will report
a parsing error. Therefore, this commit also introduces a new method called
'restoreParsingState' to LLParser, which uses the slot mappings to restore
some of its internal parsing state.
This commit is required to serialize constant value pointers in the machine
memory operands for the MIR format.

This commit extends the interface provided by the AsmParser library by adding a
function that allows the user to parse a standalone contant value.
This change is useful for MIR serialization, as it will allow the MIR Parser to
parse the constant values in a machine constant pool.

This commit creates a new structure called 'SlotMapping' in the AsmParser library.
This structure can be passed into the public parsing APIs from the AsmParser library
in order to extract the data structures that map from slot numbers to unnamed global
values and metadata nodes.
This change is useful for MIR Serialization, as the MIR Parser has to lookup the
unnamed global values and metadata nodes by their slot numbers.

This commit modifies the memory buffer creation in the AsmParser library so
that it requires a terminating null character. The LLLexer in the AsmParser
library checks for EOF only when it sees a null character, thus it would
be best to require it when creating a memory buffer so that the memory
buffer constructor can verify that a terminating null character is indeed
present.

The attached patch simplifies a few interfaces that don't need to take
ownership of a buffer.
For example, both parseAssembly and parseBitcodeFile will parse the
entire buffer before returning. There is no need to take ownership.
Using a MemoryBufferRef makes it obvious in the type signature that
there is no ownership transfer.

* Use StringRef instead of std::string&
* Return a std::unique_ptr<Module> instead of taking an optional module to write
to (was not really used).
* Use current comment style.
* Use current naming convention.

clang was needlessly duplicating whole memory buffer contents in an attempt to
satisfy unclear ownership semantics. Let's just hide internal LLVM quirks and
present a simple non-owning interface.
The public C API preserves previous behaviour for stability.

This compiles with no changes to clang/lld/lldb with MSVC and includes
overloads to various functions which are used by those projects and llvm
which have OwningPtr's as parameters. This should allow out of tree
projects some time to move. There are also no changes to libs/Target,
which should help out of tree targets have time to move, if necessary.

are part of the core IR library in order to support dumping and other
basic functionality.
Rename the 'Assembly' include directory to 'AsmParser' to match the
library name and the only functionality left their -- printing has been
in the core IR library for quite some time.
Update all of the #includes to match.
All of this started because I wanted to have the layering in good shape
before I started adding support for printing LLVM IR using the new pass
infrastructure, and commandline support for the new pass infrastructure.

into their new header subdirectory: include/llvm/IR. This matches the
directory structure of lib, and begins to correct a long standing point
of file layout clutter in LLVM.
There are still more header files to move here, but I wanted to handle
them in separate commits to make tracking what files make sense at each
layer easier.
The only really questionable files here are the target intrinsic
tablegen files. But that's a battle I'd rather not fight today.
I've updated both CMake and Makefile build systems (I think, and my
tests think, but I may have missed something).
I've also re-sorted the includes throughout the project. I'll be
committing updates to Clang, DragonEgg, and Polly momentarily.

Sooooo many of these had incorrect or strange main module includes.
I have manually inspected all of these, and fixed the main module
include to be the nearest plausible thing I could find. If you own or
care about any of these source files, I encourage you to take some time
and check that these edits were sensible. I can't have broken anything
(I strictly added headers, and reordered them, never removed), but they
may not be the headers you'd really like to identify as containing the
API being implemented.
Many forward declarations and missing includes were added to a header
files to allow them to parse cleanly when included first. The main
module rule does in fact have its merits. =]

and clean recursive descent parser.
This change has a couple of ramifications:
1. The parser code is about 400 lines shorter (in what we maintain, not
including what is autogenerated).
2. The code should be significantly faster than the old code because we
don't have to work around bison's poor handling of datatypes with
ctors/dtors. This also makes the code much more resistant to memory
leaks.
3. We now get caret diagnostics from the .ll parser, woo.
4. The actual diagnostics emited from the parser are completely different
so a bunch of testcases had to be updated.
5. I now disallow "%ty = type opaque %ty = type i32". There was no good
reason to support this, it was just an accident of the old
implementation. I have no reason to think that anyone is actually using
this.
6. The syntax for sticking a global variable has changed to make it
unambiguous. I don't think anyone is depending on this since only clang
supports this and it is not solid yet, so I'm not worried about anything
breaking.
7. This gets rid of the last use of bison, and along with it the .cvs files.
I'll prune this from the makefiles as a subsequent commit.
There are a few minor cleanups that can be done after this commit (suggestions
welcome!) but this passes dejagnu testing and is ready for its time in the
limelight.

Rid the Assembly Parser of exceptions. This is a really gross hack but it
will do until the Assembly Parser is re-written as a recursive descent.
The basic premise is that wherever the old "ThrowException" function was
called (new name: GenerateError) we set a flag (TriggerError). Every
production checks that flag and calls YYERROR if it is set. Additionally,
each call to ThrowException in the grammar is replaced with GEN_ERROR
which calls GenerateError and then YYERROR immediately. This prevents
the remaining production from continuing after an error condition.
