Currently the backend special cases x86_intrcc and treats the first
parameter as byval. Make the IR require byval for this parameter to
remove this special case, and avoid the dependence on the pointee
element type.
Fixes bug 46672.
I'm not sure the IR is enforcing all the calling convention
constraints. clang seems to ignore the attribute for empty parameter
lists, but the IR tolerates it.
This migrates all LLVM (except Kaleidoscope and
CodeGen/StackProtector.cpp) DebugLoc::get to DILocation::get.
The CodeGen/StackProtector.cpp usage may have a nullptr Scope
and can trigger an assertion failure, so I don't migrate it.

This is the first in a series of patches that attempts to migrate
existing cost instructions to return a new InstructionCost class
in place of a simple integer. This new class is intended to be
as light-weight and simple as possible, with a full range of
arithmetic and comparison operators that largely mirror the same
sets of operations on basic types, such as integers. The main
advantage to using an InstructionCost is that it can encode a
particular cost state in addition to a value. The initial
implementation only has two states - Normal and Invalid - but these
could be expanded over time if necessary. An invalid state can
be used to represent an unknown cost or an instruction that is
prohibitively expensive.
This patch adds the new class and changes the getInstructionCost
interface to return the new class. Other cost functions, such as
getUserCost, etc., will be migrated in future patches as I believe
this to be less disruptive. One benefit of this new class is that
it provides a way to unify many of the magic costs in the codebase
where the cost is set to a deliberately high number to prevent
optimisations taking place, e.g. vectorization. It also provides
a route to represent the extremely high, and unknown, cost of
scalarization of scalable vectors, which is not currently supported.

This change implements pseudo probe encoding and emission for CSSPGO. Please see RFC here for more context: https://groups.google.com/g/llvm-dev/c/1p1rdYbL93s
Pseudo probes are in the form of intrinsic calls on IR/MIR but they do not turn into any machine instructions. Instead they are emitted into the binary as a piece of data in standalone sections. The probe-specific sections are not needed to be loaded into memory at execution time, thus they do not incur a runtime overhead.
**ELF object emission**
The binary data to emit are organized as two ELF sections, i.e, the `.pseudo_probe_desc` section and the `.pseudo_probe` section. The `.pseudo_probe_desc` section stores a function descriptor for each function and the `.pseudo_probe` section stores the actual probes, each fo which corresponds to an IR basic block or an IR function callsite. A function descriptor is stored as a module-level metadata during the compilation and is serialized into the object file during object emission.
Both the probe descriptors and pseudo probes can be emitted into a separate ELF section per function to leverage the linker for deduplication. A `.pseudo_probe` section shares the same COMDAT group with the function code so that when the function is dead, the probes are dead and disposed too. On the contrary, a `.pseudo_probe_desc` section has its own COMDAT group. This is because even if a function is dead, its probes may be inlined into other functions and its descriptor is still needed by the profile generation tool.
The format of `.pseudo_probe_desc` section looks like:
```
.section .pseudo_probe_desc,"",@progbits
.quad 6309742469962978389 // Func GUID
.quad 4294967295 // Func Hash
.byte 9 // Length of func name
.ascii "_Z5funcAi" // Func name

.quad 72617220756
.byte 7
.ascii "_Z3fibi"
```
For each `.pseudoprobe` section, the encoded binary data consists of a single function record corresponding to an outlined function (i.e, a function with a code entry in the `.text` section). A function record has the following format :
```
FUNCTION BODY (one for each outlined function present in the text section)
GUID (uint64)
GUID of the function
NPROBES (ULEB128)
Number of probes originating from this function.
NUM_INLINED_FUNCTIONS (ULEB128)
Number of callees inlined into this function, aka number of
first-level inlinees
PROBE RECORDS
A list of NPROBES entries. Each entry contains:
INDEX (ULEB128)
TYPE (uint4)
0 - block probe, 1 - indirect call, 2 - direct call
ATTRIBUTE (uint3)
reserved
ADDRESS_TYPE (uint1)
0 - code address, 1 - address delta
CODE_ADDRESS (uint64 or ULEB128)
code address or address delta, depending on ADDRESS_TYPE
INLINED FUNCTION RECORDS
A list of NUM_INLINED_FUNCTIONS entries describing each of the inlined
callees. Each record contains:
INLINE SITE
GUID of the inlinee (uint64)
ID of the callsite probe (ULEB128)
FUNCTION BODY
A FUNCTION BODY entry describing the inlined function.
```
To support building a context-sensitive profile, probes from inlinees are grouped by their inline contexts. An inline context is logically a call path through which a callee function lands in a caller function. The probe emitter builds an inline tree based on the debug metadata for each outlined function in the form of a trie tree. A tree root is the outlined function. Each tree edge stands for a callsite where inlining happens. Pseudo probes originating from an inlinee function are stored in a tree node and the tree path starting from the root all the way down to the tree node is the inline context of the probes. The emission happens on the whole tree top-down recursively. Probes of a tree node will be emitted altogether with their direct parent edge. Since a pseudo probe corresponds to a real code address, for size savings, the address is encoded as a delta from the previous probe except for the first probe. Variant-sized integer encoding, aka LEB128, is used for address delta and probe index.
**Assembling**
Pseudo probes can be printed as assembly directives alternatively. This allows for good assembly code readability and also provides a view of how optimizations and pseudo probes affect each other, especially helpful for diff time assembly analysis.
A pseudo probe directive has the following operands in order: function GUID, probe index, probe type, probe attributes and inline context. The directive is generated by the compiler and can be parsed by the assembler to form an encoded `.pseudoprobe` section in the object file.
A example assembly looks like:
```
foo2: # @foo2
# %bb.0: # %bb0
pushq %rax
testl %edi, %edi
.pseudoprobe 837061429793323041 1 0 0

**Disassembling**
We have a disassembling tool (llvm-profgen) that can display disassembly alongside with pseudo probes. So far it only supports ELF executable file.

When MemCpyOpt performs call slot optimization it will concatenate the `alias.scope` metadata between the function call and the memcpy. However, scoped AA relies on the domains in metadata to be maintained in a caller-callee relationship. Naive concatenation breaks this assumption leading to bad AA results.
The fix is to take the intersection of domains then union the scopes within those domains.
The original bug came from a case of rust bad codegen which uses this bad aliasing to perform additional memcpy optimizations. As show in the added test case `%src` got forwarded past its lifetime leading to a dereference of garbage data.

It seems a good idea to add an assertion in getName so that it fails if types are passed but it's not a overloaded function.

It's common for code that manipulates the stack via inline assembly or
that has to set up its own stack canary (such as the Linux kernel) would
like to avoid stack protectors in certain functions. In this case, we've
been bitten by numerous bugs where a callee with a stack protector is
inlined into an attribute((no_stack_protector)) caller, which
generally breaks the caller's assumptions about not having a stack
protector. LTO exacerbates the issue.
While developers can avoid this by putting all no_stack_protector
functions in one translation unit together and compiling those with
-fno-stack-protector, it's generally not very ergonomic or as
ergonomic as a function attribute, and still doesn't work for LTO. See also:

* A callee with no SSP attributes will no longer be inlined into a
caller with SSP attributes.
* The reverse is also true: a callee with an SSP attribute will not be

* The alwaysinline attribute overrides these rules.
Functions that get synthesized by the compiler may not get inlined as a

here, but I do not have an immediate plan to isolate that problem.
https://llvm.org/PR48296 shows an example where we delete all of the operands
of a phi without actually deleting the phi, and that is currently considered
invalid IR. The reduced test included here would crash for that reason.
A suggested follow-up is to loosen the assert to allow 0-operand phis
in unreachable blocks.

.. because it causes miscompilation when combined with select i1 -> and/or.
It is the select fold which is incorrect; but it is costly to disable the fold, so hack this one.

Information for pointer size/alignment/etc is queried a lot, but
the binary search based implementation makes this fairly slow.
Add an explicit check for address space zero and skip the search
in that case -- we need to specially handle the zero address space
anyway, as it serves as the fallback for all address spaces that
were not explicitly defined.
I initially wanted to simply replace the binary search with a
linear search, which would handle both address space zero and the
general case efficiently, but I was not sure whether there are
any degenerate targets that use more than a handful of declared
address spaces (in-tree, even AMDGPU only declares six).
As suggested in D92247 (and independent of whatever we decide to do there),
this code is confusing as-is. Hopefully, this is at least mildly better.
We might be able to do better still, but we have a function called
"removePredecessor" with this behavior:
"Note that this function does not actually remove the predecessor." (!)
Define ConstantData::PoisonValue.
Add support for poison value to LLLexer/LLParser/BitcodeReader/BitcodeWriter.
Add support for poison value to llvm-c interface.
Add support for poison value to OCaml binding.
Add m_Poison in PatternMatch.

This change introduces a new IR intrinsic named `llvm.pseudoprobe` for pseudo-probe block instrumentation. Please refer to https://reviews.llvm.org/D86193 for the whole story.
A pseudo probe is used to collect the execution count of the block where the probe is instrumented. This requires a pseudo probe to be persisting. The LLVM PGO instrumentation also instruments in similar places by placing a counter in the form of atomic read/write operations or runtime helper calls. While these operations are very persisting or optimization-resilient, in theory we can borrow the atomic read/write implementation from PGO counters and cut it off at the end of compilation with all the atomics converted into binary data. This was our initial design and we’ve seen promising sample correlation quality with it. However, the atomics approach has a couple issues:
1. IR Optimizations are blocked unexpectedly. Those atomic instructions are not going to be physically present in the binary code, but since they are on the IR till very end of compilation, they can still prevent certain IR optimizations and result in lower code quality.
2. The counter atomics may not be fully cleaned up from the code stream eventually.
3. Extra work is needed for re-targeting.
We choose to implement pseudo probes based on a special LLVM intrinsic, which is expected to have most of the semantics that comes with an atomic operation but does not block desired optimizations as much as possible. More specifically the semantics associated with the new intrinsic enforces a pseudo probe to be virtually executed exactly the same number of times before and after an IR optimization. The intrinsic also comes with certain flags that are carefully chosen so that the places they are probing are not going to be messed up by the optimizer while most of the IR optimizations still work. The core flags given to the special intrinsic is `IntrInaccessibleMemOnly`, which means the intrinsic accesses memory and does have a side effect so that it is not removable, but is does not access memory locations that are accessible by any original instructions. This way the intrinsic does not alias with any original instruction and thus it does not block optimizations as much as an atomic operation does. We also assign a function GUID and a block index to an intrinsic so that they are uniquely identified and not merged in order to achieve good correlation quality.
Let's now look at an example. Given the following LLVM IR:
```
define internal void @foo2(i32 %x, void (i32)* %f) !dbg !4 {
bb0:
%cmp = icmp eq i32 %x, 0
br i1 %cmp, label %bb1, label %bb2
bb1:
br label %bb3
bb2:
br label %bb3
bb3:
ret void
}
```
The instrumented IR will look like below. Note that each `llvm.pseudoprobe` intrinsic call represents a pseudo probe at a block, of which the first parameter is the GUID of the probe’s owner function and the second parameter is the probe’s ID.
```
define internal void @foo2(i32 %x, void (i32)* %f) !dbg !4 {
bb0:
%cmp = icmp eq i32 %x, 0
call void @llvm.pseudoprobe(i64 837061429793323041, i64 1)
br i1 %cmp, label %bb1, label %bb2
bb1:
call void @llvm.pseudoprobe(i64 837061429793323041, i64 2)
br label %bb3
bb2:
call void @llvm.pseudoprobe(i64 837061429793323041, i64 3)
br label %bb3
bb3:
call void @llvm.pseudoprobe(i64 837061429793323041, i64 4)
ret void
}
```
