It turns out that ASan relied on the at-the-end block insertion order to
(purely by happenstance) disable some LLVM optimizations, which in turn
start firing when the ordering is made more "normal". These
optimizations in turn merge many of the instrumentation reporting calls
which breaks the return address based error reporting in ASan.
We're looking at several different options for fixing this.

This is particularly useful to the backend code generators which try to
process things in the incoming function order.
Also, cleanup some uses of IRBuilder to be a bit simpler and more clear.

the move of *Builder classes into the Core library.
No uses of this builder in Clang or DragonEgg I could find.
If there is a desire to have an IR-building-support library that
contains all of these builders, that can be easily added, but currently
it seems likely that these add no real overhead to VMCore.
llvm-svn: 160243
This was always part of the VMCore library out of necessity -- it deals
entirely in the IR. The .cpp file in fact was already part of the VMCore
library. This is just a mechanical move.
I've tried to go through and re-apply the coding standard's preferred
header sort, but at 40-ish files, I may have gotten some wrong. Please
let me know if so.
I'll be committing the corresponding updates to Clang and Polly, and
Duncan has DragonEgg.
Thanks to Bill and Eric for giving the green light for this bit of cleanup.

include/llvm/Analysis/DebugInfo.h to include/llvm/DebugInfo.h.
The reasoning is because the DebugInfo module is simply an interface to the
debug info MDNodes and has nothing to do with analysis.

This allows the user/front-end to specify a model that is better
than what LLVM would choose by default. For example, a variable
might be declared as
@x = thread_local(initialexec) global i32 42
if it will not be used in a shared library that is dlopen'ed.
If the specified model isn't supported by the target, or if LLVM can
make a better choice, a different model may be used.

inject some code in that will run via the "__mod_init_func" method that
registers the gcov "writeout" function to execute at exit time.
The problem is that the "__mod_term_func" method of specifying d'tors is
deprecated on Darwin. And it can lead to some ambiguities when dealing with
multiple libraries.

replicating the code for every place it's needed, we instead generate a function
that does that for us. This function is local to the executable, so there
shouldn't be any writing violations.

are passed in. However, those arguments may be in a write-protected area, as far
as the runtime library is concerned. For instance, the data could be placed into
a 'linkedit' section, which isn't writable. Emit the code from
llvm_gcda_increment_indirect_counter directly into the function instead.
Note: The code for this is ugly, and can lead to bloat. We should look into
simplifying this code instead of having all of these branches.

- don't isntrument reads from constant globals.
Saves ~1.5% of instrumented instructions on CPU2006
(counting static instructions, not their execution).
- don't insrument reads from vtable (which is a global constant too).
Saves ~5%.
I did not measure the run-time impact of this,
but it is certainly non-negative.

a write to the same temp follows in the same BB.
Also add stats printing.
On Spec CPU2006 this optimization saves roughly 4% of instrumented reads
(which is 3% of all instrumented accesses):
Writes : 161216
Reads : 446458
Reads-before-write: 18295

This change replaces getTypeStoreSize with getTypeAllocSize in AddressSanitizer
instrumentation for stack allocations.
One case where old behaviour produced undesired results is an optimization in
InstCombine pass (PromoteCastOfAllocation), which can replace alloca(T) with
alloca(S), where S has the same AllocSize, but a smaller StoreSize. Another
case is memcpy(long double => long double), where ASan will poison bytes 10-15
of a stack-allocated long double (StoreSize 10, AllocSize 16,
sizeof(long double) = 16).
See http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=12047 for more context.

but with a critical fix to the SelectionDAG code that optimizes copies
from strings into immediate stores: the previous code was stopping reading
string data at the first nul. Address this by adding a new argument to
llvm::getConstantStringInfo, preserving the behavior before the patch.
