Summary:
This patch allows phi nodes like
%x = phi [ %incptr, ... ] [ %var, ... ]
%incptr = getelementptr %x, 1
to be analyzed by BasicAliasAnalysis.
In aliasPHI, we can detect incoming values that are recursive GEPs with a
constant offset. Instead of trying to analyze a recursive GEP (and failing),
we now ignore it and instead set the size of the memory referenced by
the PHINode to UnknownSize. This represents all the possible memory
locations the pointer represented by the PHINode could be advanced to
by the GEP.
For now, this new behavior is turned off by default to allow debugging of
performance degradations seen with SPEC/x86 and Hexagon benchmarks.
The flag -basicaa-recphi turns it on.

inspection.
While we want to handle calls specially in this code because they should
have been modeled by the call graph analysis that precedes it, we should
*not* be re-implementing the predicates for whether an instruction reads
or writes memory. Those are well defined already. Notably, at least the
following issues seem to be clearly missed before:
- Ordered atomic loads can "write" to memory by causing writes from other
threads to become visible. Similarly for ordered atomic stores.
- AtomicRMW instructions quite obviously both read and write to memory.
- AtomicCmpXchg instructions also read and write to memory.
- Fences read and write to memory.
- Invokes of intrinsics or memory allocation functions.
I don't have any test cases, and I suspect this has never really come up
in the real world. But there is no reason why it wouldn't, and it makes
the code simpler to do this the right way.
While here, I've tried to make the loops significantly simpler as well
and added helpful comments as to what is going on.

Summary:
The iteration order within a member of DepCands is deterministic
and therefore we don't have to sort the accesses within a member.
We also don't have to copy the indices of the pointers into a
vector, since we can iterate over the members of the class.

Summary:
This at least saves compile time. I also encountered a case where
ephemeral values affect whether other variables are promoted, causing
performance issues. It may be a bug in LSR, but I didn't manage to
reduce it yet. Anyhow, I believe it's in general not worth considering
ephemeral values in LSR.

No in-tree alias analysis used this facility, and it was not called in
any particularly rigorous way, so it seems unlikely to be correct.
Note that one of the only stateful AA implementations in-tree,
GlobalsModRef is completely broken currently (and any AA passes like it
are equally broken) because Module AA passes are not effectively
invalidated when a function pass that fails to update the AA stack runs.
Ultimately, it doesn't seem like we know how we want to build stateful
AA, and until then trying to support and maintain correctness for an
untested API is essentially impossible. To that end, I'm planning to rip
out all of the update API. It can return if and when we need it and know
how to build it on top of the new pass manager and as part of *tested*
stateful AA implementations in the tree.

Currently canCheckPtrAtRT returns two flags NeedRTCheck and CanDoRT.
NeedRTCheck says whether we need checks and CanDoRT whether we can
generate the checks. The idea is to encode three states with these:
Need/Can:
(1) false/dont-care: no checks are needed
(2) true/false: we need checks but can't generate them
(3) true/true: we need checks and we can generate them
This is pretty unnecessary since the caller (analyzeLoop) is only
interested in whether we can generate the checks if we actually need
them (i.e. 1 or 3).
So this change cleans up to return just that (CanDoRTIfNeeded) and pulls
all the underlying logic into canCheckPtrAtRT.
By doing all this, we simplify analyzeLoop which is the complex function
in LAA.
There is further room for improvement here by using RtCheck.Need
directly rather than a new local variable NeedRTCheck but that's for a
later patch.

Summary:
The checking pointer group construction algorithm relied on the iteration on DepCands.
We would need the same leaders across runs and the same iteration order over the underlying std::set for determinism.
This changes the algorithm to process the pointers in the order in which they were added to the runtime check, which is deterministic.
We need to update the tests, since the order in which pointers appear has changed.
No new tests were added, since it is impossible to test for non-determinism.

The original name was too close to NeedRTCheck which is what the actual

This commit ([LAA] Fix estimation of number of memchecks) regressed the
logic a bit. We shouldn't quit the analysis if we encounter a pointer
without known bounds *unless* we actually need to emit a memcheck for
it.
The original code was using NumComparisons which is now computed
differently. Instead I compute NeedRTCheck from NumReadPtrChecks and
NumWritePtrChecks.
As side note, I find the separation of NeedRTCheck and CanDoRT
confusing, so I will try to merge them in a follow-up patch.

Summary:
Often filter-like loops will do memory accesses that are
separated by constant offsets. In these cases it is
common that we will exceed the threshold for the
allowable number of checks.
However, it should be possible to merge such checks,
sice a check of any interval againt two other intervals separated
by a constant offset (a,b), (a+c, b+c) will be equivalent with
a check againt (a, b+c), as long as (a,b) and (a+c, b+c) overlap.
Assuming the loop will be executed for a sufficient number of
iterations, this will be true. If not true, checking against
(a, b+c) is still safe (although not equivalent).
As long as there are no dependencies between two accesses,
we can merge their checks into a single one. We use this
technique to construct groups of accesses, and then check
the intervals associated with the groups instead of
checking the accesses directly.

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.

From the linker's perspective, an available_externally global is equivalent
to an external declaration (per isDeclarationForLinker()), so it is incorrect
to consider it to be a weak definition.
Also clean up some logic in the dead argument elimination pass and clarify
its comments to better explain how its behavior depends on linkage,
introduce GlobalValue::isStrongDefinitionForLinker() and start using
it throughout the optimizers and backend.

The expressions we delinearize do not necessarily have to have a SCEVAddRecExpr
at the outermost level. At this moment, the additional flexibility is not
exploited in LLVM itself, but in Polly we will soon soonish use this
functionality. For LLVM, this change should not affect existing functionality
(which is covered by test/Analysis/Delinearization/)

If we have a caller that knows a particular argument can never be null, we can exploit this fact while simplifying values in the inline cost analysis. This has the effect of reducing the cost for inlining when a null check is present in the callee, but the value is known non null in the caller. In particular, any dependent control flow can be discounted from the cost estimate.
Note that we use the parameter attributes at the call site to memoize the analysis within the caller's code. The setting of this attribute is done in InstCombine, the inline cost analysis just consumes it. This is intentional and important because we want the inline cost analysis results to be easily cachable themselves. We're not currently doing so, but initial results on LTO indicate this will quickly become important.

Summary:
Scalar evolution does not propagate the non-wrapping flags to values
that are derived from a non-wrapping induction variable because
the non-wrapping property could be flow-sensitive.
This change is a first attempt to establish the non-wrapping property in
some simple cases. The main idea is to look through the operations
defining the pointer. As long as we arrive to a non-wrapping AddRec via
a small chain of non-wrapping instruction, the pointer should not wrap
either.
I believe that this essentially is what Andy described in
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.compilers.llvm.cvs/220731 as the way
forward.

CaptureTracking becomes very expensive in large basic blocks while
calling PointerMayBeCaptured. PointerMayBeCaptured scans the BB the
number of times equal to the number of uses of 'BeforeHere', which is
currently capped at 20 and bails out with Tracker->tooManyUses().
The bottleneck here is the number of calls to PointerMayBeCaptured * the
basic block scan. In a testcase with a 82k instruction BB,
PointerMayBeCaptured is called 130k times, leading to 'shouldExplore'
taking 527k runs, this currently takes ~12min.
To fix this we locally (within PointerMayBeCaptured) number the
instructions in the basic block using a DenseMap to cache instruction
positions/numbers. We build the cache incrementally every time we need
to scan an unexplored part of the BB, improving compile time to only
take ~2min.
This triggers in the flow: DeadStoreElimination -> MepDepAnalysis ->
CaptureTracking.
Side note: after multiple runs in the test-suite I've seen no
performance nor compile time regressions, but could note a couple of

This will allow classes to implement the AA interface without deriving
from the class or referencing an internal enum of some other class as
their return types.
Also, to a pretty fundamental extent, concepts such as 'NoAlias',
'MayAlias', and 'MustAlias' are first class concepts in LLVM and we
aren't saving anything by scoping them heavily.
My mild preference would have been to use a scoped enum, but that
feature is essentially completely broken AFAICT. I'm extremely
disappointed. For example, we cannot through any reasonable[1] means
construct an enum class (or analog) which has scoped names but converts
to a boolean in order to test for the possibility of aliasing.
[1]: Richard Smith came up with a "solution", but it requires class
templates, and lots of boilerplate setting up the enumeration multiple
times. Something like Boost.PP could potentially bundle this up, but
even that would be quite painful and it doesn't seem realistically worth
it. The enum class solution would probably work without the need for
a bool conversion.

accurately describe what is being tracked.
While these two enums do track mod/ref information and aliasing
information, they don't represent the exact same things as either the
mod/ref enums or the alias result enum in AA. They're definitions are
dominated by the structure of their lattice and the bit's various
semantics. This patch just calls them what they are and tries to spell
out usefully distinct names for these things.
This will clear the path for using a raw unscoped enum to represent some
of these concepts across LLVM's analysis library.
