FoldingSet is implemented as a chained hash table. When there is a hash
collision during insertion, which is common as we fill the table until a
load factor of 2.0 is hit, we walk the chained elements, comparing every
operand with the new element's operands. This can be very expensive if the
MDNode has many operands.
We sacrifice a word of space in MDNode to cache the full hash value, reducing
compares on collision to a minimum. MDNode grows from 28 to 32 bytes + operands
on x86. On x86_64 the new bits fit nicely into existing padding, not growing
the struct at all.
The actual speedup depends a lot on the test case and is typically between
1% and 2% for C++ code with clang -c -O0 -g.

StringMap. This was redundant and unnecessarily bloated the MDString class.
Because the MDString class is a "Value" and will never have a "name", and
because the Name field in the Value class is a pointer to a StringMap entry, we
repurpose the Name field for an MDString. It stores the StringMap entry in the
Name field, and uses the normal methods to get the string (name) back.

new hash_value infrastructure, and replace their implementations using
hash_combine. This removes a complete copy of Jenkin's lookup3 hash
function (which is both significantly slower and lower quality than the
one implemented in hash_combine) along with a somewhat scary xor-only
hash function.
Now that APInt and APFloat can be passed directly to hash_combine,
simplify the rest of the LLVMContextImpl hashing to use the new
infrastructure.

of the proposed standard hashing interfaces (N3333), and to use
a modified and tuned version of the CityHash algorithm.
Some of the highlights of this change:
-- Significantly higher quality hashing algorithm with very well
distributed results, and extremely few collisions. Should be close to
a checksum for up to 64-bit keys. Very little clustering or clumping of
hash codes, to better distribute load on probed hash tables.
-- Built-in support for reserved values.
-- Simplified API that composes cleanly with other C++ idioms and APIs.
-- Better scaling performance as keys grow. This is the fastest
algorithm I've found and measured for moderately sized keys (such as
show up in some of the uniquing and folding use cases)
-- Support for enabling per-execution seeds to prevent table ordering
or other artifacts of hashing algorithms to impact the output of
LLVM. The seeding would make each run different and highlight these
problems during bootstrap.
This implementation was tested extensively using the SMHasher test
suite, and pased with flying colors, doing better than the original
CityHash algorithm even.
I've included a unittest, although it is somewhat minimal at the moment.
I've also added (or refactored into the proper location) type traits
necessary to implement this, and converted users of GeneralHash over.
My only immediate concerns with this implementation is the performance
of hashing small keys. I've already started working to improve this, and
will continue to do so. Currently, the only algorithms faster produce
lower quality results, but it is likely there is a better compromise
than the current one.
Many thanks to Jeffrey Yasskin who did most of the work on the N3333
paper, pair-programmed some of this code, and reviewed much of it. Many
thanks also go to Geoff Pike Pike and Jyrki Alakuijala, the original
authors of CityHash on which this is heavily based, and Austin Appleby
who created MurmurHash and the SMHasher test suite.
Also thanks to Nadav, Tobias, Howard, Jay, Nick, Ahmed, and Duncan for
all of the review comments! If there are further comments or concerns,
please let me know and I'll jump on 'em.

patch brings numerous advantages to LLVM. One way to look at it
is through diffstat:
109 files changed, 3005 insertions(+), 5906 deletions(-)
Removing almost 3K lines of code is a good thing. Other advantages
include:
1. Value::getType() is a simple load that can be CSE'd, not a mutating
union-find operation.
2. Types a uniqued and never move once created, defining away PATypeHolder.
3. Structs can be "named" now, and their name is part of the identity that
uniques them. This means that the compiler doesn't merge them structurally
which makes the IR much less confusing.
4. Now that there is no way to get a cycle in a type graph without a named
struct type, "upreferences" go away.
5. Type refinement is completely gone, which should make LTO much MUCH faster
in some common cases with C++ code.
6. Types are now generally immutable, so we can use "Type *" instead
"const Type *" everywhere.
Downsides of this patch are that it removes some functions from the C API,
so people using those will have to upgrade to (not yet added) new API.
"LLVM 3.0" is the right time to do this.
There are still some cleanups pending after this, this patch is large enough
as-is.

and will replace the 'DbgInfo' member in Instruction.
The benefit of NewDebugLoc is that it is compact (8 bytes vs 12/24
bytes for the DbgInfo member in Instruction on a 32/64 bit system),
it means that we will end up not having to allocate MDNodes to
represent the "DILocations" in common cases of -O0 -g, and it is
much more efficient to get things out of than the MDNode.
