e188aae406 Cleanup header dependencies in LLVMCore
Based on the output of include-what-you-use.

This is a big chunk of changes. It is very likely to break downstream code
unless they took a lot of care in avoiding hidden ehader dependencies, something
the LLVM codebase doesn't do that well :-/

I've tried to summarize the biggest change below:

- llvm/include/llvm-c/Core.h: no longer includes llvm-c/ErrorHandling.h
- llvm/IR/DIBuilder.h no longer includes llvm/IR/DebugInfo.h
- llvm/IR/IRBuilder.h no longer includes llvm/IR/IntrinsicInst.h
- llvm/IR/LLVMRemarkStreamer.h no longer includes llvm/Support/ToolOutputFile.h
- llvm/IR/LegacyPassManager.h no longer include llvm/Pass.h
- llvm/IR/Type.h no longer includes llvm/ADT/SmallPtrSet.h
- llvm/IR/PassManager.h no longer includes llvm/Pass.h nor llvm/Support/Debug.h

And the usual count of preprocessed lines:
$ clang++ -E  -Iinclude -I../llvm/include ../llvm/lib/IR/*.cpp -std=c++14 -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions | wc -l
before: 6400831
after:  6189948

200k lines less to process is no that bad ;-)

bc56097817 [GlobalValue] Make dso_local function work with comdat nodeduplicate
This fixes -fno-semantic-interposition -fsanitize-coverage incompatibility.

-fPIC -fno-semantic-interposition may add dso_local to an external linkage
function. -fsanitize-coverage instrumentation does not clear dso_local when
adding comdat nodeduplicate. This causes a compatibility issue: the function
symbol may be referenced by a PC-relative relocation without using the local
alias. In -shared mode, ld will report a relocation error.

The fix is to either clear dso_local when adding comdat nodeduplicate, or
supporting comdat nodeduplicate. The latter is more appropriate, because a
comdat nodeduplicate is like not using comdat.

Note: The comdat condition was originally added by D77429 to not use local alias
for a hidden external linkage function in a deduplicate comdat. The condition
has been unused since the code was refactored to only use local alias for
default visibility symbols.
Note: `canBenefitFromLocalAlias` is used by clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenModule.cpp
and we don't want to add dso_local to default visibility external linkage comdat any
(clang/test/CodeGenCUDA/usual-deallocators.cu).

08ed216000 [IR] Refactor GlobalIFunc to inherit from GlobalObject, Remove GlobalIndirectSymbol
As discussed in:
* https://reviews.llvm.org/D94166
* https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2020-September/145031.html

The GlobalIndirectSymbol class lost most of its meaning in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D109792, which disambiguated getBaseObject
(now getAliaseeObject) between GlobalIFunc and everything else.
In addition, as long as GlobalIFunc is not a GlobalObject and
getAliaseeObject returns GlobalObjects, a GlobalAlias whose aliasee
is a GlobalIFunc cannot currently be modeled properly. Creating
aliases for GlobalIFuncs does happen in the wild (e.g. glibc). In addition,
calling getAliaseeObject on a GlobalIFunc will currently return nullptr,
which is undesirable because it should return the object itself for
non-aliases.

This patch refactors the GlobalIFunc class to inherit directly from
GlobalObject, and removes GlobalIndirectSymbol (while inlining the
relevant parts into GlobalAlias and GlobalIFunc). This allows for
calling getAliaseeObject() on a GlobalIFunc to return the GlobalIFunc
itself, making getAliaseeObject() more consistent and enabling
alias-to-ifunc to be properly modeled in the IR.

I exercised some judgement in the API clients of GlobalIndirectSymbol:
some were 'monomorphized' for GlobalAlias and GlobalIFunc, and
some remained shared (with the type adapted to become GlobalValue).

40ec1c0f16 [IR][NFC] Rename getBaseObject to getAliaseeObject

1a6e1ee42a Resolve {GlobalValue,GloalIndirectSymol}::getBaseObject confusion
While both GlobalAlias and GlobalIFunc are GlobalIndirectSymbol, their
`getIndirectSymbol()` usage is quite different (GlobalIFunc's resolver
is an entity different from GlobalIFunc itself).

As discussed on https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2020-September/144904.html
("[IR] Modelling of GlobalIFunc"), the name `getBaseObject` is confusing when
used with GlobalIFunc.

To resolve the confusion:

* Move GloalIndirectSymol::getBaseObject to GlobalAlias:: (GlobalIFunc should use `getResolver` instead)
* Change GlobalValue::getBaseObject not to inspect GlobalIFunc. Note: the function has 7 references.
* Add GlobalIFunc::getResolverFunction to peel off potential ConstantExpr indirection
  (`strlen` in `test/LTO/Resolution/X86/ifunc.ll`)

Note: GlobalIFunc::getResolver (like GlobalAlias::getAliasee which does not peel
off ConstantExpr indirection) is kept to be used by ValueEnumerator.

3bc4157556 Add a default address space for globals to DataLayout
This is similar to the existing alloca and program address spaces (D37052)
and should be used when creating/accessing global variables.
We need this in our CHERI fork of LLVM to place all globals in address space 200.
This ensures that values are accessed using CHERI load/store instructions
instead of the normal MIPS/RISC-V ones.

The problem this is trying to fix is that most of the time the type of
globals is created using a simple PointerType::getUnqual() (or ::get() with
the default address-space value of 0). This does not work for us and we get
assertion/compilation/instruction selection failures whenever a new call
is added that uses the default value of zero.

In our fork we have removed the default parameter value of zero for most
address space arguments and use DL.getProgramAddressSpace() or
DL.getGlobalsAddressSpace() whenever possible. If this change is accepted,
I will upstream follow-up patches to use DL.getGlobalsAddressSpace() instead
of relying on the default value of 0 for PointerType::get(), etc.

This patch and the follow-up changes will not have any functional changes
for existing backends with the default globals address space of zero.
A follow-up commit will change the default globals address space for
AMDGPU to 1.

4cb016cd2d [X86][ELF] Prefer lowering MC_GlobalAddress operands to .Lfoo$local for STV_DEFAULT only
This patch restricts the behaviour of referencing via .Lfoo$local
local aliases, introduced in https://reviews.llvm.org/D73230, to
STV_DEFAULT globals only.

Hidden symbols via --fvisiblity=hidden (https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Visibility)
is an important scenario.

Benefits:

- Improves the size of object files by using fewer STT_SECTION symbols.

- The code reads a bit better (it was not obvious to me without going
  back to the code reviews why the canBenefitFromLocalAlias function
  currently doesn't consider visibility).

- There is also a side benefit in restoring the effectiveness of the
  --wrap linker option and making the behavior of --wrap consistent
  between LTO and normal builds for references within a translation-unit.
  Note: this --wrap behavior (which is specific to LLD) should not be
  considered reliable. See comments on https://reviews.llvm.org/D73230

9d55e4ee13 Make explicit -fno-semantic-interposition (in -fpic mode) infer dso_local
-fno-semantic-interposition is currently the CC1 default. (The opposite
disables some interprocedural optimizations.) However, it does not infer
dso_local: on most targets accesses to ExternalLinkage functions/variables
defined in the current module still need PLT/GOT.

This patch makes explicit -fno-semantic-interposition infer dso_local,
so that PLT/GOT can be eliminated if targets implement local aliases
for AsmPrinter::getSymbolPreferLocal (currently only x86).

Currently we check whether the module flag "SemanticInterposition" is 0.
If yes, infer dso_local. In the future, we can infer dso_local unless
"SemanticInterposition" is 1: frontends other than clang will also
benefit from the optimization if they don't bother setting the flag.
(There will be risks if they do want ELF interposition: they need to set
"SemanticInterposition" to 1.)

I explicitly deleted the relational comparison operators that
were being inherited from Optional. It's unclear what the meaning
of two MaybeAligns were one is defined and the other isn't

I left the ==/!= operators from Optional. But now that exposed a
weird quirk that ==/!= between Align and MaybeAlign required the
MaybeAlign to be defined. But now we use the operator== from
Optional that takes an Optional and the Value.

First attempt at implementing -fsemantic-interposition.

Rely on GlobalValue::isInterposable that already captures most of the expected

Rely on a ModuleFlag to state whether we should respect SemanticInterposition or

So this should be a no-op if -fsemantic-interposition isn't used, and if it is,
isInterposable being already used in most optimisation, they should honor it
properly.

72391ab4f1 IR: Teach GlobalIndirectSymbol::getBaseObject() to handle more kinds of expressions.
For aliases, any expression that lowers at the MC level to global_object or
global_object+constant is valid at the object file level. getBaseObject()
should return a result if the aliasee ends up being of that form even if
the IR used to produce it is somewhat unconventional.

Note that this is different from what stripInBoundsOffsets() and that family
of functions is doing. Those functions are concerned about semantic properties
of IR, whereas here we only care about the lowering result.

Therefore reimplement getBaseObject() in a way that matches the lowering
result. This fixes a crash when producing a summary for aliases such as
that in the included test case.

c70d28bff5 Represent runtime preemption in the IR.
Currently we do not represent runtime preemption in the IR, which has several
drawbacks:

  1) The semantics of GlobalValues differ depending on the object file format
     you are targeting (as well as the relocation-model and -fPIE value).
  2) We have no way of disabling inlining of run time interposable functions,
     since in the IR we only know if a function is link-time interposable.
     Because of this llvm cannot support elf-interposition semantics.
  3) In LTO builds of executables we will have extra knowledge that a symbol
     resolved to a local definition and can't be preemptable, but have no way to
     propagate that knowledge through the compiler.

This patch adds preemptability specifiers to the IR with the following meaning:

dso_local --> means the compiler may assume the symbol will resolve to a
 definition within the current linkage unit and the symbol may be accessed
 directly even if the definition is not within this compilation unit.

dso_preemptable --> means that the compiler must assume the GlobalValue may be
replaced with a definition from outside the current linkage unit at runtime.

To ease transitioning dso_preemptable is treated as a 'default' in that
low-level codegen will still do the same checks it did previously to see if a
symbol should be accessed indirectly. Eventually when IR producers emit the
specifiers on all Globalvalues we can change dso_preemptable to mean 'always
access indirectly', and remove the current logic.

Convention wisdom says that bytes in Function are precious, and the
vast, vast majority of globals do not live in special sections. Even
when they do, they tend to live in the same section. Store the section
name on the LLVMContext in a StringSet, and maintain a map from
GlobalObject* to section name like we do for metadata, prefix data, etc.

The fact that we've survived this long wasting at least three pointers
of space in Function suggests that Function bytes are perhaps not as
precious as we once thought. Given that most functions have metadata
attachments when debug info is enabled, we might consider adding a
pointer here to make that access more efficient.

235c275b20 IR, X86: Understand !absolute_symbol metadata on global variables.
Summary:
Attaching !absolute_symbol to a global variable does two things:
1) Marks it as an absolute symbol reference.
2) Specifies the value range of that symbol's address.
Teach the X86 backend to allow absolute symbols to appear in place of
immediates by extending the relocImm and mov64imm32 matchers. Start using
relocImm in more places where it is legal.

6733564e5a Target: Change various section classifiers in TargetLoweringObjectFile to take a GlobalObject.
These functions are about classifying a global which will actually be
emitted, so it does not make sense for them to take a GlobalValue which may
for example be an alias.

Change the Mach-O object writer and the Hexagon, Lanai and MIPS backends to
look through aliases before using TargetLoweringObjectFile interfaces. These
are functional changes but all appear to be bug fixes.

c05f3c9942 [IR] [DAE] Copy comdats during DAE, and don't copy comdats in GlobalObject::copyAttributesFrom.
Summary: This reverts the changes to Globals.cpp and IRMover.cpp in
"[IR] Copy comdats in GlobalObject::copyAttributesFrom" (D20631,
rL270743).

The DeadArgElim test is left unchanged, and we change DAE to explicitly
copy comdats.

The reverted change breaks copyAttributesFrom when the destination lives
in a different module from the source.  The decision in D21255 was to
revert this patch and handle comdat copying separately from
copyAttributesFrom.

96efdd6107 IR: Introduce local_unnamed_addr attribute.
If a local_unnamed_addr attribute is attached to a global, the address
is known to be insignificant within the module. It is distinct from the
existing unnamed_addr attribute in that it only describes a local property
of the module rather than a global property of the symbol.

This attribute is intended to be used by the code generator and LTO to allow
the linker to decide whether the global needs to be in the symbol table. It is
possible to exclude a global from the symbol table if three things are true:
- This attribute is present on every instance of the global (which means that
  the normal rule that the global must have a unique address can be broken without
  being observable by the program by performing comparisons against the global's
  address)
- The global has linkonce_odr linkage (which means that each linkage unit must have
  its own copy of the global if it requires one, and the copy in each linkage unit
  must be the same)
- It is a constant or a function (which means that the program cannot observe that
  the unique-address rule has been broken by writing to the global)

Although this attribute could in principle be computed from the module
contents, LTO clients (i.e. linkers) will normally need to be able to compute
this property as part of symbol resolution, and it would be inefficient to
materialize every module just to compute it.

This is probably correct for all uses except cross-module IR linking,
where we need to move the comdat from the source module to the
destination module.
