8f32e5f0d6 Rename llvm.frameescape and llvm.framerecover to localescape and localrecover
Summary:
Initially, these intrinsics seemed like part of a family of "frame"
related intrinsics, but now I think that's more confusing than helpful.
Initially, the LangRef specified that this would create a new kind of
allocation that would be allocated at a fixed offset from the frame
pointer (EBP/RBP). We ended up dropping that design, and leaving the
stack frame layout alone.

These intrinsics are really about sharing local stack allocations, not
frame pointers. I intend to go further and add an `llvm.localaddress()`
intrinsic that returns whatever register (EBP, ESI, ESP, RBX) is being
used to address locals, which should not be confused with the frame
pointer.

Naming suggestions at this point are welcome, I'm happy to re-run sed.

90b5eb2319 [PlaceSafepoints] Entry safepoint location doesn't need to be a terminator
Long ago, the poll insertion code assumed that the insertion site was a terminator.  As a result, the entry selection code would split a basic block to ensure it could pass a terminator.  The insertion code was updated quite a while ago - possibly before it ever landed upstream - but the now redundant work was never removed.  

While I'm at it, remove a comment which doesn't apply to the upstreamed code.  

NFC intended.

95d08bce87 Add a GCStrategy for CoreCLR
This change adds a new GC strategy for supporting the CoreCLR runtime.

This strategy is currently identical to Statepoint-example GC, 
but is necessary for several upcoming changes specific to CoreCLR, such as:

1. Base-pointers not explicitly reported for interior pointers
2. Different format for stack-map encoding
3. Location of Safe-point polls: polls are only needed before loop-back edges and before tail-calls (not needed at function-entry)
4. Runtime specific handshake between calls to managed/unmanaged functions.

a5703bc52e [PlaceSafepoints] Stop special casing some intrinsics
We were special casing a handful of intrinsics as not needing a safepoint before them.  After running into another valid case - memset - I took a closer look and realized that almost no intrinsics need to have a safepoint poll before them.  Restructure the code to make that apparent so that we stop hitting these bugs.  The only intrinsics which need a safepoint poll before them are ones which can run arbitrary code.

2306579644 [PlaceSafepoints] Assertion on that gc_result can not have preceding phis should only apply to invoke statepoint
Summary: When PlaceSafepoints pass replaces old return result with gc_result from statepoint, it asserts that gc_result can not have preceding phis in its parent block. This is only true on invoke statepoint, which terminates the block and puts its result at the beginning of the normal successor block. Call statepoint does not terminate the block and thus its result is in the same block with it. There should be no restriction on whether there are phis or not.

3f0ca03e94 [PlaceSafepoints] New attributes for patchable statepoints.
Summary:
This patch teaches the PlaceSafepoints pass about two `CallSite`
function attributes:

 * "statepoint-id": if the string value of this attribute can be parsed
   as an integer, then it is propagated to the ID parameter of the
   statepoint created.

 * "statepoint-num-patch-bytes": if the string value of this attribute
   can be parsed as an integer, then it is propagated to the `num patch
   bytes` parameter of the statepoint created.

This change intentionally does not assert on a malformed value for these
attributes, given that they're not "official" attributes.

f0240dde53 [PlaceSafepoints] Reduce dominator tree recalculation

ead2d1fbe0 [Statepoints] Support for "patchable" statepoints.
Summary:
This change adds two new parameters to the statepoint intrinsic, `i64 id`
and `i32 num_patch_bytes`.  `id` gets propagated to the ID field
in the generated StackMap section.  If the `num_patch_bytes` is
non-zero then the statepoint is lowered to `num_patch_bytes` bytes of
nops instead of a call (the spill and reload code remains unchanged).
A non-zero `num_patch_bytes` is useful in situations where a language
runtime requires complete control over how a call is lowered.

This change brings statepoints one step closer to patchpoints.  With
some additional work (that is not part of this patch) it should be
possible to get rid of `TargetOpcode::STATEPOINT` altogether.

PlaceSafepoints generates `statepoint` wrappers with `id` set to
`0xABCDEF00` (the old default value for the ID reported in the stackmap)
and `num_patch_bytes` set to `0`.  This can be made more sophisticated
later.

fab55cf45f [PlaceSafepoints] Switch to being a FunctionPass

e749325463 [CallSite] Make construction from Value* (or Instruction*) explicit.
CallSite roughly behaves as a common base CallInst and InvokeInst. Bring
the behavior closer to that model by making upcasts explicit. Downcasts
remain implicit and work as before.

Following dyn_cast as a mental model checking whether a Value *V isa
CallSite now looks like this: 
  if (auto CS = CallSite(V)) // think dyn_cast
instead of:
  if (CallSite CS = V)

This is an extra token but I think it is slightly clearer. Making the
ctor explicit has the advantage of not accidentally creating nullptr
CallSites, e.g. when you pass a Value * to a function taking a CallSite
argument.

7a62a2a5ae [PlaceSafepoints] Adjust enablement logic to default to off and be GC configurable per GC
Previously, this pass ran over every function in the Module if added to the pass order.  With this change, it runs only over those with a GC attribute where the GC explicitly opts in.  A GC can also choose which of entry safepoint polls, backedge safepoint polls, and call safepoints it wants.  I hope to get these exposed as checks on the GCStrategy at some point, but for now, the checks are manual string comparisons.

417c5c172c [PM] Remove the old 'PassManager.h' header file at the top level of
LLVM's include tree and the use of using declarations to hide the
'legacy' namespace for the old pass manager.

This undoes the primary modules-hostile change I made to keep
out-of-tree targets building. I sent an email inquiring about whether
this would be reasonable to do at this phase and people seemed fine with
it, so making it a reality. This should allow us to start bootstrapping
with modules to a certain extent along with making it easier to mix and
match headers in general.

The updates to any code for users of LLVM are very mechanical. Switch
from including "llvm/PassManager.h" to "llvm/IR/LegacyPassManager.h".
Qualify the types which now produce compile errors with "legacy::". The
most common ones are "PassManager", "PassManagerBase", and
"FunctionPassManager".

2fc495a300 Adjust how we avoid poll insertion inside the poll function (NFC)
I realized that my early fix for this was overly complicated.  Rather than scatter checks around in a bunch of places, just exit early when we visit the poll function itself.

Thinking about it a bit, the whole inlining mechanism used with gc.safepoint_poll could probably be cleaned up a bit.  Originally, poll insertion was fused with gc relocation rewriting.  It might be worth going back to see if we can simplify the chain of events now that these two are seperated.  As one thought, maybe it makes sense to rewrite calls inside the helper function before inlining it to the many callers.  This would require us to visit the poll function before any other functions though..

2e38beb32f Add a pass for inserting safepoints into (nearly) arbitrary IR
This pass is responsible for figuring out where to place call safepoints and safepoint polls. It doesn't actually make the relocations explicit; that's the job of the RewriteStatepointsForGC pass (http://reviews.llvm.org/D6975).

Note that this code is not yet finalized.  Its moving in tree for incremental development, but further cleanup is needed and will happen over the next few days.  It is not yet part of the standard pass order.  

Planned changes in the near future:
 - I plan on restructuring the statepoint rewrite to use the functions add to the IRBuilder a while back. 
 - In the current pass, the function "gc.safepoint_poll" is treated specially but is not an intrinsic. I plan to make identifying the poll function a property of the GCStrategy at some point in the near future.
 - As follow on patches, I will be separating a collection of test cases we have out of tree and submitting them upstream. 
 - It's not explicit in the code, but these two patches are introducing a new state for a statepoint which looks a lot like a patchpoint. There's no a transient form which doesn't yet have the relocations explicitly represented, but does prevent reordering of memory operations. Once this is in, I need to update actually make this explicit by reserving the 'unused' argument of the statepoint as a flag, updating the docs, and making the code explicitly check for such a thing. This wasn't really planned, but once I split the two passes - which was done for other reasons - the intermediate state fell out. Just reminds us once again that we need to merge statepoints and patchpoints at some point in the not that distant future.

Future directions planned:
 - Identifying more cases where a backedge safepoint isn't required to ensure timely execution of a safepoint poll.
 - Tweaking the insertion process to generate easier to optimize IR. (For example, investigating making SplitBackedge) the default.
 - Adding opt-in flags for a GCStrategy to use this pass. Once done, add this pass to the actual pass ordering.
