frontends to use a DIExpression with a DW_OP_deref instead.
This is not only a much more natural place for this informationl; there
is also a technical reason: The FlagIndirectVariable is used to mark a
variable that is turned into a reference by virtue of the calling
convention; this happens for example to aggregate return values.
The inliner, for example, may actually need to undo this indirection to
correctly represent the value in its new context. This is impossible to
implement because the DIVariable can't be safely modified. We can however
safely construct a new DIExpression on the fly.

This commit moves `MDLocation`, finishing off PR21433. There's an
accompanying clang commit for frontend testcases. I'll attach the
testcase upgrade script I used to PR21433 to help out-of-tree
frontends/backends.
This changes the schema for `DebugLoc` and `DILocation` from:
!{i32 3, i32 7, !7, !8}
to:
!MDLocation(line: 3, column: 7, scope: !7, inlinedAt: !8)
Note that empty fields (line/column: 0 and inlinedAt: null) don't get
printed by the assembly writer.

Now that `Metadata` is typeless, reflect that in the assembly. These
are the matching assembly changes for the metadata/value split in
r223802.
- Only use the `metadata` type when referencing metadata from a call
intrinsic -- i.e., only when it's used as a `Value`.
- Stop pretending that `ValueAsMetadata` is wrapped in an `MDNode`
when referencing it from call intrinsics.
So, assembly like this:
define @foo(i32 %v) {
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 %v}, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 7}, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !1, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{metadata !3}, metadata !0)
ret void, !bar !2
}
!0 = metadata !{metadata !2}
!1 = metadata !{i32* @global}
!2 = metadata !{metadata !3}
!3 = metadata !{}
turns into this:
define @foo(i32 %v) {
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 %v, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 7, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32* @global, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{!3}, metadata !0)
ret void, !bar !2
}
!0 = !{!2}
!1 = !{i32* @global}
!2 = !{!3}
!3 = !{}
I wrote an upgrade script that handled almost all of the tests in llvm
and many of the tests in cfe (even handling many `CHECK` lines). I've
attached it (or will attach it in a moment if you're speedy) to PR21532
to help everyone update their out-of-tree testcases.
This is part of PR21532.

This reverts commit r218918, effectively reapplying r218914 after fixing
an Ocaml bindings test and an Asan crash. The root cause of the latter
was a tightened-up check in `DILexicalBlock::Verify()`, so I'll file a
PR to investigate who requires the loose check (and why).

This patch addresses the first stage of PR17891 by folding constant
arguments together into a single MDString. Integers are stringified and
a `\0` character is used as a separator.
Part of PR17891.
Note: I've attached my testcases upgrade scripts to the PR. If I've
just broken your out-of-tree testcases, they might help.

argument of the llvm.dbg.declare/llvm.dbg.value intrinsics.
Previously, DIVariable was a variable-length field that has an optional
reference to a Metadata array consisting of a variable number of
complex address expressions. In the case of OpPiece expressions this is
wasting a lot of storage in IR, because when an aggregate type is, e.g.,
SROA'd into all of its n individual members, the IR will contain n copies
of the DIVariable, all alike, only differing in the complex address
reference at the end.
By making the complex address into an extra argument of the
dbg.value/dbg.declare intrinsics, all of the pieces can reference the
same variable and the complex address expressions can be uniqued across
the CU, too.
Down the road, this will allow us to move other flags, such as
"indirection" out of the DIVariable, too.
The new intrinsics look like this:
declare void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata %storage, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
declare void @llvm.dbg.value(metadata %storage, i64 %offset, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
This patch adds a new LLVM-local tag to DIExpressions, so we can detect
and pretty-print DIExpression metadata nodes.
What this patch doesn't do:
This patch does not touch the "Indirect" field in DIVariable; but moving
that into the expression would be a natural next step.

A further step to correctly emitting concrete out of line definitions
preceeding inlined instances of the same program.
To do this, emission of subprograms must be delayed until required since
we don't know which (abstract only (if there's no out of line
definition), concrete only (if there are no inlined instances), or both)
DIEs are required at the start of the module.
To reduce the test churn in the following commit that actually fixes the
bug, this commit introduces the lazy DIE construction and cleans up test
cases that are impacted by the changes in the resulting DIE ordering.

A bunch of test cases needed to be cleaned up for this, many my fault -
when implementid imported modules I updated test cases by simply
duplicating the prior metadata field - which wasn't always the empty
metadata entry.
