While we have successfully implemented a funclet-oriented EH scheme on
top of LLVM IR, our scheme has some notable deficiencies:
- catchendpad and cleanupendpad are necessary in the current design
but they are difficult to explain to others, even to seasoned LLVM
experts.
- catchendpad and cleanupendpad are optimization barriers. They cannot
be split and force all potentially throwing call-sites to be invokes.
This has a noticable effect on the quality of our code generation.
- catchpad, while similar in some aspects to invoke, is fairly awkward.
It is unsplittable, starts a funclet, and has control flow to other
funclets.
- The nesting relationship between funclets is currently a property of
control flow edges. Because of this, we are forced to carefully
analyze the flow graph to see if there might potentially exist illegal
nesting among funclets. While we have logic to clone funclets when
they are illegally nested, it would be nicer if we had a
representation which forbade them upfront.
Let's clean this up a bit by doing the following:
- Instead, make catchpad more like cleanuppad and landingpad: no control
flow, just a bunch of simple operands; catchpad would be splittable.
- Introduce catchswitch, a control flow instruction designed to model
the constraints of funclet oriented EH.
- Make funclet scoping explicit by having funclet instructions consume
the token produced by the funclet which contains them.
- Remove catchendpad and cleanupendpad. Their presence can be inferred
implicitly using coloring information.
N.B. The state numbering code for the CLR has been updated but the
veracity of it's output cannot be spoken for. An expert should take a
look to make sure the results are reasonable.

Place new and update dbg.declare calls immediately after the
corresponding alloca.
Current code in replaceDbgDeclareForAlloca puts the new dbg.declare
at the end of the basic block. LLVM codegen has problems emitting
debug info in a situation when dbg.declare appears after all uses of
the variable. This usually kinda works for inlining and ASan (two
users of this function) but not for SafeStack (see the pending change

1. Use a worklist, not a recursive approach, to avoid needless
revisitation and being repeatedly forced to jump back to the
start of the BB if a handle is invalidated.
2. Only insert operands to the worklist if they become unused
after a dead instruction is removed, so we don’t have to
visit them again in most cases.
3. Use a SmallSetVector to track the worklist.
4. Instead of pre-initting the SmallSetVector like in
DeadCodeEliminationPass, only put things into the worklist
if they have to be revisited after the first run-through.
This minimizes how much the actual SmallSetVector gets used,
which saves a lot of time.

This makes RemoveDuplicatePHINodes more effective and fixes an assertion
failure. Triggering the assertions requires a DenseSet reallocation
so this change only contains a constructive test.
I'll explain the issue with a small example. In the following function
there's a duplicate PHI, %4 and %5 are identical. When this is found
the DenseSet in RemoveDuplicatePHINodes contains %2, %3 and %4.
define void @F() {
br label %1
; <label>:1 ; preds = %1, %0
%2 = phi i32 [ 42, %0 ], [ %4, %1 ]
%3 = phi i32 [ 42, %0 ], [ %5, %1 ]
%4 = phi i32 [ 42, %0 ], [ 23, %1 ]
%5 = phi i32 [ 42, %0 ], [ 23, %1 ]
br label %1
}
after RemoveDuplicatePHINodes runs the function looks like this. %3 has
changed and is now identical to %2, but RemoveDuplicatePHINodes never
saw this.
define void @F() {
br label %1
; <label>:1 ; preds = %1, %0
%2 = phi i32 [ 42, %0 ], [ %4, %1 ]
%3 = phi i32 [ 42, %0 ], [ %4, %1 ]
%4 = phi i32 [ 42, %0 ], [ 23, %1 ]
br label %1
}
If the DenseSet does a reallocation now it will reinsert all
keys and stumble over %3 now having a different hash value than it had
when inserted into the map for the first time. This change clears the
set whenever a PHI is deleted and starts the progress from the
beginning, allowing %3 to be deleted and avoiding inconsistent DenseSet
state. This potentially has a negative performance impact because
it rescans all PHIs, but I don't think that this ever makes a difference
in practice.

The personality routine currently lives in the LandingPadInst.
This isn't desirable because:
- All LandingPadInsts in the same function must have the same
personality routine. This means that each LandingPadInst beyond the
first has an operand which produces no additional information.
- There is ongoing work to introduce EH IR constructs other than
LandingPadInst. Moving the personality routine off of any one
particular Instruction and onto the parent function seems a lot better
than have N different places a personality function can sneak onto an
exceptional function.

This patch extends EarlyCSE to take advantage of the information that a controlling branch gives us about the value of a Value within this and dominated basic blocks. If the current block has a single predecessor with a controlling branch, we can infer what the branch condition must have been to execute this block. The actual change to support this is downright simple because EarlyCSE's existing scoped hash table logic deals with most of the complexity around merging.
The patch actually implements two optimizations.
1) The first is analogous to JumpThreading in that it enables EarlyCSE's CSE handling to fold branches which are exactly redundant due to a previous branch to branches on constants. (It doesn't actually replace the branch or change the CFG.) This is pretty clearly a win since it enables substantial CFG simplification before we start trying to inline.
2) The second is analogous to CVP in that it exploits the knowledge gained to replace dominated *uses* of the original value. EarlyCSE does not otherwise reason about specific uses, so this is the more arguable one. It does enable further simplication and constant folding within the rest of the visit by EarlyCSE.
In both cases, the added code only handles the easy dominance based case of each optimization. The general case is deferred to the existing passes.

Finish off PR23080 by renaming the debug info IR constructs from `MD*`
to `DI*`. The last of the `DIDescriptor` classes were deleted in
r235356, and the last of the related typedefs removed in r235413, so
this has all baked for about a week.
Note: If you have out-of-tree code (like a frontend), I recommend that
you get everything compiling and tests passing with the *previous*
commit before updating to this one. It'll be easier to keep track of
what code is using the `DIDescriptor` hierarchy and what you've already
updated, and I think you're extremely unlikely to insert bugs. YMMV of
course.
Back to *this* commit: I did this using the rename-md-di-nodes.sh
upgrade script I've attached to PR23080 (both code and testcases) and
filtered through clang-format-diff.py. I edited the tests for
test/Assembler/invalid-generic-debug-node-*.ll by hand since the columns
were off-by-three. It should work on your out-of-tree testcases (and
code, if you've followed the advice in the previous paragraph).
Some of the tests are in badly named files now (e.g.,
test/Assembler/invalid-mdcompositetype-missing-tag.ll should be
'dicompositetype'); I'll come back and move the files in a follow-up
commit.

Remove early returns for when `getVariable()` is null, and just assert
that it never happens. The Verifier already confirms that there's a
valid variable on these intrinsics, so we should assume the debug info

Verifier similarly guarantees.

Change `DIBuilder::insertDeclare()` and `insertDbgValueIntrinsic()` to
take an `MDLocation*`/`DebugLoc` parameter which it attaches to the
created intrinsic. Assert at creation time that the `scope:` field's
subprogram matches the variable's. There's a matching `clang` commit to
use the API.
The context for this is PR22778, which is removing the `inlinedAt:`
field from `MDLocalVariable`, instead deferring to the `!dbg` location
attached to the debug info intrinsic. The best way to ensure we always
have a `!dbg` attachment is to require one at creation time. I'll be
adding verifier checks next, but this API change is the best way to
shake out frontend bugs.
Note: I added an `llvm_unreachable()` in `bindings/go` and passed in
`nullptr` for the `DebugLoc`. The `llgo` folks will eventually need to
pass a valid `DebugLoc` here.

- It's default-constructed to `nullptr`.
Otherwise, it should behave quite like a raw pointer. Once I've done
the same to the rest of the `DIDescriptor` subclasses, I'll come back to
delete them entirely (and update call sites as necessary to deal with
the missing magic).

Summary:
Now that the DataLayout is a mandatory part of the module, let's start
cleaning the codebase. This patch is a first attempt at doing that.
This patch is not exactly NFC as for instance some places were passing
a nullptr instead of the DataLayout, possibly just because there was a
default value on the DataLayout argument to many functions in the API.
Even though it is not purely NFC, there is no change in the
validation.
I turned as many pointer to DataLayout to references, this helped
figuring out all the places where a nullptr could come up.
I had initially a local version of this patch broken into over 30
independant, commits but some later commit were cleaning the API and
touching part of the code modified in the previous commits, so it
seemed cleaner without the intermediate state.

llvm-svn: 226537
a cache of assumptions for a single function, and an immutable pass that
manages those caches.
The motivation for this change is two fold. Immutable analyses are
really hacks around the current pass manager design and don't exist in
the new design. This is usually OK, but it requires that the core logic
of an immutable pass be reasonably partitioned off from the pass logic.
This change does precisely that. As a consequence it also paves the way
for the *many* utility functions that deal in the assumptions to live in
both pass manager worlds by creating an separate non-pass object with
its own independent API that they all rely on. Now, the only bits of the
system that deal with the actual pass mechanics are those that actually
need to deal with the pass mechanics.
Once this separation is made, several simplifications become pretty
obvious in the assumption cache itself. Rather than using a set and
callback value handles, it can just be a vector of weak value handles.
The callers can easily skip the handles that are null, and eventually we
can wrap all of this up behind a filter iterator.
For now, this adds boiler plate to the various passes, but this kind of
boiler plate will end up making it possible to port these passes to the
new pass manager, and so it will end up factored away pretty reasonably.

Split `Metadata` away from the `Value` class hierarchy, as part of
PR21532. Assembly and bitcode changes are in the wings, but this is the
bulk of the change for the IR C++ API.
I have a follow-up patch prepared for `clang`. If this breaks other
sub-projects, I apologize in advance :(. Help me compile it on Darwin
I'll try to fix it. FWIW, the errors should be easy to fix, so it may
be simpler to just fix it yourself.
This breaks the build for all metadata-related code that's out-of-tree.
Rest assured the transition is mechanical and the compiler should catch
almost all of the problems.
Here's a quick guide for updating your code:
- `Metadata` is the root of a class hierarchy with three main classes:
`MDNode`, `MDString`, and `ValueAsMetadata`. It is distinct from
the `Value` class hierarchy. It is typeless -- i.e., instances do
*not* have a `Type`.
- `MDNode`'s operands are all `Metadata *` (instead of `Value *`).
- `TrackingVH<MDNode>` and `WeakVH` referring to metadata can be
replaced with `TrackingMDNodeRef` and `TrackingMDRef`, respectively.
If you're referring solely to resolved `MDNode`s -- post graph
construction -- just use `MDNode*`.
- `MDNode` (and the rest of `Metadata`) have only limited support for
`replaceAllUsesWith()`.
As long as an `MDNode` is pointing at a forward declaration -- the
result of `MDNode::getTemporary()` -- it maintains a side map of its
uses and can RAUW itself. Once the forward declarations are fully
resolved RAUW support is dropped on the ground. This means that
uniquing collisions on changing operands cause nodes to become
"distinct". (This already happened fairly commonly, whenever an
operand went to null.)
If you're constructing complex (non self-reference) `MDNode` cycles,
you need to call `MDNode::resolveCycles()` on each node (or on a
top-level node that somehow references all of the nodes). Also,
don't do that. Metadata cycles (and the RAUW machinery needed to
construct them) are expensive.
- An `MDNode` can only refer to a `Constant` through a bridge called
`ConstantAsMetadata` (one of the subclasses of `ValueAsMetadata`).
As a side effect, accessing an operand of an `MDNode` that is known
to be, e.g., `ConstantInt`, takes three steps: first, cast from
`Metadata` to `ConstantAsMetadata`; second, extract the `Constant`;
third, cast down to `ConstantInt`.
The eventual goal is to introduce `MDInt`/`MDFloat`/etc. and have
metadata schema owners transition away from using `Constant`s when
the type isn't important (and they don't care about referring to
`GlobalValue`s).
In the meantime, I've added transitional API to the `mdconst`
namespace that matches semantics with the old code, in order to
avoid adding the error-prone three-step equivalent to every call
site. If your old code was:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(isa <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(cast <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(cast_or_null <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(dyn_cast <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(dyn_cast_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
you can trivially match its semantics with:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(mdconst::hasa <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(mdconst::extract <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(mdconst::extract_or_null <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(mdconst::dyn_extract <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(mdconst::dyn_extract_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
and when you transition your metadata schema to `MDInt`:
MDNode *N = foo();
bar(isa <MDInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
baz(cast <MDInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
bak(cast_or_null <MDInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
bat(dyn_cast <MDInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
bay(dyn_cast_or_null<MDInt>(N->getOperand(4)));
- A `CallInst` -- specifically, intrinsic instructions -- can refer to
metadata through a bridge called `MetadataAsValue`. This is a
subclass of `Value` where `getType()->isMetadataTy()`.
`MetadataAsValue` is the *only* class that can legally refer to a
`LocalAsMetadata`, which is a bridged form of non-`Constant` values
like `Argument` and `Instruction`. It can also refer to any other
`Metadata` subclass.
(I'll break all your testcases in a follow-up commit, when I propagate
this change to assembly.)

replaceDbgDeclareForAlloca() replaces an alloca by a value storing the
address of what was the alloca. If there is a dbg.declare corresponding
to that alloca, we need to lower it to a dbg.value describing the additional
dereference operation to be performed to get to the underlying variable.
This is done by adding a DW_OP_deref to the complex location part of the
location description. This deref was added to the end of the operation list,
which is wrong. The expression applies to what is described by the
dbg.{declare,value}, and as we are changing this, we need to apply the
DW_OP_deref as the first operation in the list.
