d8f69a7201 Rename llvm.recoverframeallocation to llvm.framerecover
This name is less descriptive, but it sort of puts things in the
'llvm.frame...' namespace, relating it to frameallocate and
frameaddress. It also avoids using "allocate" and "allocation" together.

221a7075cf Add the llvm.frameallocate and llvm.recoverframeallocation intrinsics
These intrinsics allow multiple functions to share a single stack
allocation from one function's call frame. The function with the
allocation may only perform one allocation, and it must be in the entry
block.

Functions accessing the allocation call llvm.recoverframeallocation with
the function whose frame they are accessing and a frame pointer from an
active call frame of that function.

These intrinsics are very difficult to inline correctly, so the
intention is that they be introduced rarely, or at least very late
during EH preparation.

f416d72973 IR: Add 'distinct' MDNodes to bitcode and assembly
Propagate whether `MDNode`s are 'distinct' through the other types of IR
(assembly and bitcode).  This adds the `distinct` keyword to assembly.

Currently, no one actually calls `MDNode::getDistinct()`, so these nodes
only get created for:

  - self-references, which are never uniqued, and
  - nodes whose operands are replaced that hit a uniquing collision.

The concept of distinct nodes is still not quite first-class, since
distinct-ness doesn't yet survive across `MapMetadata()`.

Part of PR22111.

f907a26bc2 Change the .ll syntax for comdats and add a syntactic sugar.
In order to make comdats always explicit in the IR, we decided to make
the syntax a bit more compact for the case of a GlobalObject in a
comdat with the same name.

Just dropping the $name causes problems for

@foo = globabl i32 0, comdat
$bar = comdat ...

and

declare void @foo() comdat
$bar = comdat ...

So the syntax is changed to

@g1 = globabl i32 0, comdat($c1)
@g2 = globabl i32 0, comdat

and

declare void @foo() comdat($c1)
declare void @foo() comdat

1ef70ff39b IR: Make metadata typeless in assembly
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.

708bc15ff0 Require python 2.7.
We were already requiring 2.5, which meant that people on old linux distros
had to upgrade anyway.

Requiring python 2.6 will make supporting 3.X easier as we can use the 3.X
exception syntax.

According to the discussion on llvmdev, there is not much value is requiring
just 2.6, we may as well just require 2.7.

70b0751080 InstrProf: An intrinsic and lowering for instrumentation based profiling
Introduce the ``llvm.instrprof_increment`` intrinsic and the
``-instrprof`` pass. These provide the infrastructure for writing
counters for profiling, as in clang's ``-fprofile-instr-generate``.

The implementation of the instrprof pass is ported directly out of the
CodeGenPGO classes in clang, and with the followup in clang that rips
that code out to use these new intrinsics this ends up being NFC.

Doing the instrumentation this way opens some doors in terms of
improving the counter performance. For example, this will make it
simple to experiment with alternate lowering strategies, and allows us
to try handling profiling specially in some optimizations if we want
to.

Finally, this drastically simplifies the frontend and puts all of the
lowering logic in one place.

bb660fc192 Prologue support
Patch by Ben Gamari!

This redefines the `prefix` attribute introduced previously and
introduces a `prologue` attribute.  There are a two primary usecases
that these attributes aim to serve,

  1. Function prologue sigils

  2. Function hot-patching: Enable the user to insert `nop` operations
     at the beginning of the function which can later be safely replaced
     with a call to some instrumentation facility

  3. Runtime metadata: Allow a compiler to insert data for use by the
     runtime during execution. GHC is one example of a compiler that
     needs this functionality for its tables-next-to-code functionality.

Previously `prefix` served cases (1) and (2) quite well by allowing the user
to introduce arbitrary data at the entrypoint but before the function
body. Case (3), however, was poorly handled by this approach as it
required that prefix data was valid executable code.

Here we redefine the notion of prefix data to instead be data which
occurs immediately before the function entrypoint (i.e. the symbol
address). Since prefix data now occurs before the function entrypoint,
there is no need for the data to be valid code.

The previous notion of prefix data now goes under the name "prologue
data" to emphasize its duality with the function epilogue.

The intention here is to handle cases (1) and (2) with prologue data and
case (3) with prefix data.

References
----------

This idea arose out of discussions[1] with Reid Kleckner in response to a
proposal to introduce the notion of symbol offsets to enable handling of
case (3).

d1940dcca7 Clarify wording in the LangRef around !invariant.load
Clarify the wording around !invariant.load to properly reflect the semantics of such loads with respect to control dependence and location lifetime.  To the best of my knowledge, the revised wording respects the actual implementation and understanding of issues involved highlighted in the recent 'Optimization hints for "constant" loads' thread on LLVMDev.  

In particular, I'm aiming for the following results:
- To clarify that an invariant.load can fault and must respect control dependence.  In particular, it is not sound to unconditionally pull an invariant load out of a loop if that loop would potentially never execute.  
- To clarify that the invariant nature of a given pointer does not preclude the modification of that location through a pointer which is unrelated to the load operand.  In particular, initializing a location and then passing a pointer through an opaque intrinsic which produces a new unrelated pointer, should behave as expected provided that the intrinsic is memory dependent on the initializing store.  
- To clarify that storing a value to an invariant location is defined.  It can not, for example, be considered unreachable.  The value stored can be assumed to be equal to the value of any previous (or following!) invariant load, but the store itself is defined.  

I recommend that anyone interested in using !invariant.load, or optimizing for them, read over the discussion in the review thread.  A number of motivating examples are discussed.

57ec3b5488 Clarify the description of the noalias attribute
The previous description of the noalias attribute did not accurately specify
the implemented semantics, and the terminology used differed unnecessarily
from that used by the C specification to define the semantics of restrict. For
the argument attribute, the semantics can be precisely specified in terms of
objects accessed through pointers based on the arguments, and this is now what
is done.

Saying that the semantics are 'slightly weaker' than that provided by C99
restrict is not really useful without further elaboration, so that has been
removed from the sentence.

noalias on a return value is really used to mean that the function is
malloc-like (and, in fact, we use this attribute to represent
__attribute__((malloc)) in Clang), and this is a stronger guarantee than that
provided by restrict (because it is a property of the pointed-to memory region,
not just a guarantee on object access). Clarifying this is relevant to fixing
(and was motivated by the discussion on) PR21556.
