The existing code missed some edge cases when e.g. we're going to emit sqrtf but
only the availability of sqrt was checked. This happens on odd platforms like
windows.

extremely subtle miscompilations (such as a load getting replaced with
the value stored *below* the load within a basic block) related to
promoting an alloca to an SSA value, there is the dim possibility that
you hit this. Please let me know if you won this unfortunate lottery.
The first half of mem2reg's core logic (as it is used both in the
standalone mem2reg pass and in SROA) builds up a mapping from
'Instruction *' to the index of that instruction within its basic block.
This allows quickly establishing which store dominate a particular load
even for large basic blocks. We cache this information throughout the
run of mem2reg over a function in order to amortize the cost of
computing it.
This is not in and of itself a strange pattern in LLVM. However, it
introduces a very important constraint: absolutely no instruction can be
deleted from the program without updating the mapping. Otherwise a newly
allocated instruction might get the same pointer address, and then end
up with a wrong index. Yes, LLVM routinely suffers from a *single
threaded* variant of the ABA problem. Most places in LLVM don't find
avoiding this an imposition because they don't both delete and create
new instructions iteratively, but mem2reg *loves* to do this... All the
time. Fortunately, the mem2reg code was really careful about updating
this cache to handle this eventuallity... except when it comes to the
debug declare intrinsic. Oops. The fix is to invalidate that pointer in
the cache when we delete it, the same as we do when deleting alloca
instructions and other instructions.
I've also caused the same bug in new code while working on a fix to
PR16867, so this seems to be a really unfortunate pattern. Hopefully in
subsequent patches the deletion of dead instructions can be consolidated
sufficiently to make it less likely that we'll see future occurences of
this bug.
Sorry for not having a test case, but I have literally no idea how to
reliably trigger this kind of thing. It may be single-threaded, but it
remains an ABA problem. It would require a really amazing number of
stars to align.

However, opt -O2 doesn't run mem2reg directly so nobody noticed until r188146
when SROA started sending more things directly down the PromoteMemToReg path.
In order to revert r187191, I also revert dependent revisions r187296, r187322
and r188146. Fixes PR16867. Does not add the testcases from that PR, but both
of them should get added for both mem2reg and sroa when this revert gets
unreverted.

Summary:
Doing work in constructors is bad: this change suggests to
call SpecialCaseList::create(Path, Error) instead of
"new SpecialCaseList(Path)". Currently the latter may crash with
report_fatal_error, which is undesirable - sometimes we want to report
the error to user gracefully - for example, if he provides an incorrect
file as an argument of Clang's -fsanitize-blacklist flag.

This moves removeUnreachableBlocksFromFn from SimplifyCFGPass.cpp
to Utils/Local.cpp and uses it to replace the implementation of
llvm::removeUnreachableBlocks, which appears to do a strict subset
of what removeUnreachableBlocksFromFn does.

Our internal regex implementation does not cope with large numbers
of anchors very efficiently. Given a ~3600-entry special case list,
regex compilation can take on the order of seconds. This patch solves
the problem for the special case of patterns matching literal global
names (i.e. patterns with no regex metacharacters). Rather than
forming regexes from literal global name patterns, add them to
a StringSet which is checked before matching against the regex.
This reduces regex compilation time by an order of roughly thousands
when reading the aforementioned special case list, according to a
completely unscientific study.
No test cases. I figure that any new tests for this code should
check that regex metacharacters are properly recognised. However,
I could not find any documentation which documents the fact that the
syntax of global names in special case lists is based on regexes.
The extent to which regex syntax is supported in special case lists
should probably be decided on/documented before writing tests.

analysis of the alloca. We don't need to visit all the users twice for
this. We build up a kill list during the analysis and then just process
it afterward. This recovers the tiny bit of performance lost by moving
to the visitor based analysis system as it removes one entire use-list
walk from mem2reg. In some cases, this is now faster than mem2reg was
previously.

Both transformations reduce number of branches. The transformation

robust. It now uses an InstVisitor and worklist to actually walk the
uses of the Alloca transitively and detect the pattern which we can
directly promote: loads & stores of the whole alloca and instructions we
can completely ignore.
Also, with this new implementation teach both the predicate for testing
whether we can promote and the promotion engine itself to use the same
code so we no longer have strange divergence between the two code paths.
I've added some silly test cases to demonstrate that we can handle
slightly more degenerate code patterns now. See the below for why this
is even interesting.
Performance impact: roughly 1% regression in the performance of SROA or
ScalarRepl on a large C++-ish test case where most of the allocas are
basically ready for promotion. The reason is because of silly redundant
work that I've left FIXMEs for and which I'll address in the next
commit. I wanted to separate this commit as it changes the behavior.
Once the redundant work in removing the dead uses of the alloca is
fixed, this code appears to be faster than the old version. =]
So why is this useful? Because the previous requirement for promotion
required a *specific* visit pattern of the uses of the alloca to verify:
we *had* to look for no more than 1 intervening use. The end goal is to
have SROA automatically detect when an alloca is already promotable and
directly hand it to the mem2reg machinery rather than trying to
partition and rewrite it. This is a 25% or more performance improvement
for SROA, and a significant chunk of the delta between it and
ScalarRepl. To get there, we need to make mem2reg actually capable of
promoting allocas which *look* promotable to SROA without have SROA do
tons of work to massage the code into just the right form.
This is actually the tip of the iceberg. There are tremendous potential
savings we can realize here by de-duplicating work between mem2reg and
SROA.

The language reference says that:
"If a symbol appears in the @llvm.used list, then the compiler,
assembler, and linker are required to treat the symbol as if there is
a reference to the symbol that it cannot see"
Since even the linker cannot see the reference, we must assume that
the reference can be using the symbol table. For example, a user can add
__attribute__((used)) to a debug helper function like dump and use it from
a debugger.

helper function. This leaves both trivial cases handled entirely in
helper functions and merely manages the list of allocas to process in
the run method.
The next step will be to handle all of the trivial promotion work prior
to even creating the core class and the subsequent simplifications that
enables.

a single block into the helper routine. This takes advantage of the fact
that we can directly replace uses prior to any store with undef to
simplify matters and unconditionally promote allocas only used within
one block.
I've removed the special handling for the case of no stores existing.
This has no semantic effect but might slow things down. I'll fix that in
a later patch when I refactor this entire thing to be easier to manage
the different cases.

handles the general cases.
The hope is to refactor this so that we don't end up building the entire
class for the trivial cases. I also want to lift a lot of the early
pre-processing in the initial segment of run() into a separate routine,
and really none of it needs to happen inside the primary promotion
class.
These routines in particular used none of the actual state in the
promotion class, so they don't really make sense as members.
