"used" (e.g., we will refer to the vtable in the generated code) and
when they are defined (i.e., because we've seen the key function
definition). Previously, we were effectively tracking "potential
definitions" rather than uses, so we were a bit too eager about emitting
vtables for classes without key functions.
The new scheme:
- For every use of a vtable, Sema calls MarkVTableUsed() to indicate
the use. For example, this occurs when calling a virtual member
function of the class, defining a constructor of that class type,
dynamic_cast'ing from that type to a derived class, casting
to/through a virtual base class, etc.
- For every definition of a vtable, Sema calls MarkVTableUsed() to
indicate the definition. This happens at the end of the translation
unit for classes whose key function has been defined (so we can
delay computation of the key function; see PR6564), and will also
occur with explicit template instantiation definitions.
- For every vtable defined/used, we mark all of the virtual member
functions of that vtable as defined/used, unless we know that the key
function is in another translation unit. This instantiates virtual
member functions when needed.
- At the end of the translation unit, Sema tells CodeGen (via the
ASTConsumer) which vtables must be defined (CodeGen will define
them) and which may be used (for which CodeGen will define the
vtables lazily).
From a language perspective, both the old and the new schemes are
permissible: we're allowed to instantiate virtual member functions
whenever we want per the standard. However, all other C++ compilers
were more lazy than we were, and our eagerness was both a performance
issue (we instantiated too much) and a portability problem (we broke
Boost test cases, which now pass).
Notes:
(1) There's a ton of churn in the tests, because the order in which
vtables get emitted to IR has changed. I've tried to isolate some of
the larger tests from these issues.
(2) Some diagnostics related to
implicitly-instantiated/implicitly-defined virtual member functions
have moved to the point of first use/definition. It's better this
way.
(3) I could use a review of the places where we MarkVTableUsed, to
see if I missed any place where the language effectively requires a
vtable.

llvm-svn: 103127
implicitly-generated copy constructor. Previously, Sema would perform
some checking and instantiation to determine which copy constructors,
etc., would be called, then CodeGen would attempt to figure out which
copy constructor to call... but would get it wrong, or poke at an
uninstantiated default argument, or fail in other ways.
The new scheme is similar to what we now do for the implicit
copy-assignment operator, where Sema performs all of the semantic
analysis and builds specific ASTs that look similar to the ASTs we'd
get from explicitly writing the copy constructor, so that CodeGen need
only do a direct translation.
However, it's not quite that simple because one cannot explicit write
elementwise copy-construction of an array. So, I've extended
CXXBaseOrMemberInitializer to contain a list of indexing variables
used to copy-construct the elements. For example, if we have:
struct A { A(const A&); };
struct B {
A array[2][3];
};
then we generate an implicit copy assignment operator for B that looks
something like this:
B::B(const B &other) : array[i0][i1](other.array[i0][i1]) { }
CodeGen will loop over the invented variables i0 and i1 to visit all
elements in the array, so that each element in the destination array
will be copy-constructed from the corresponding element in the source
array. Of course, if we're dealing with arrays of scalars or class
types with trivial copy-assignment operators, we just generate a
memcpy rather than a loop.
Fixes PR6928, PR5989, and PR6887. Boost.Regex now compiles and passes
all of its regression tests.
Conspicuously missing from this patch is handling for the exceptional
case, where we need to destruct those objects that we have
constructed. I'll address that case separately.

assignment operators.
Previously, Sema provided type-checking and template instantiation for
copy assignment operators, then CodeGen would synthesize the actual
body of the copy constructor. Unfortunately, the two were not in sync,
and CodeGen might pick a copy-assignment operator that is different
from what Sema chose, leading to strange failures, e.g., link-time
failures when CodeGen called a copy-assignment operator that was not
instantiation, run-time failures when copy-assignment operators were
overloaded for const/non-const references and the wrong one was
picked, and run-time failures when by-value copy-assignment operators
did not have their arguments properly copy-initialized.
This implementation synthesizes the implicitly-defined copy assignment
operator bodies in Sema, so that the resulting ASTs encode exactly
what CodeGen needs to do; there is no longer any special code in
CodeGen to synthesize copy-assignment operators. The synthesis of the
body is relatively simple, and we generate one of three different
kinds of copy statements for each base or member:
- For a class subobject, call the appropriate copy-assignment
operator, after overload resolution has determined what that is.
- For an array of scalar types or an array of class types that have
trivial copy assignment operators, construct a call to
__builtin_memcpy.
- For an array of class types with non-trivial copy assignment
operators, synthesize a (possibly nested!) for loop whose inner
statement calls the copy constructor.
- For a scalar type, use built-in assignment.
This patch fixes at least a few tests cases in Boost.Spirit that were
failing because CodeGen picked the wrong copy-assignment operator
(leading to link-time failures), and I suspect a number of undiagnosed
problems will also go away with this change.
Some of the diagnostics we had previously have gotten worse with this
change, since we're going through generic code for our
type-checking. I will improve this in a subsequent patch.

TryStaticImplicitCast (for references, class types, and everything
else, respectively) into a single invocation of
InitializationSequence.
One of the paths (for class types) was the only client of
Sema::TryInitializationByConstructor, which I have eliminated. This
also simplified the interface for much of the cast-checking logic,
eliminating yet more code.
I've kept the representation of C++ functional casts with <> 1
arguments the same, despite the fact that I hate it. That fix will
come soon. To satisfy my paranoia, I've bootstrapped + tested Clang
