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.

I also changed -simplifycfg, -jump-threading and -codegenprepare to use this to produce slightly better code without any extra cleanup passes (AFAICT this was the only place in -simplifycfg where now-dead conditions of replaced terminators weren't being cleaned up). The only other user of this function is -sccp, but I didn't read that thoroughly enough to figure out whether it might be holding pointers to instructions that could be deleted by this.

on existing application.

Use debug info in the IR to find the directory/file:line:col. Each time that location changes, bump a counter.
Unlike the existing profiling system, we don't try to look at argv[], and thusly don't require main() to be present in the IR. This matches GCC's technique where you specify the profiling flag when producing each .o file.
The runtime library is minimal, currently just calling printf at program shutdown time. The API is designed to make it possible to emit GCOV data later on.

reimplemented in the argpromotion pass.

after the given instruction; make sure to handle that case correctly.
(It's difficult to trigger; the included testcase involves a dead
block, but I don't think that's a requirement.)
While I'm here, get rid of the unnecessary warning about
SimplifyInstructionsInBlock, since it should work correctly as far as I know.

itself without going via a phi node then we could return false here in
spite of making a change. Also, tweak the comment because this method
can (and always could) return true without deleting the original phi node.
For example, if the phi node was used by a read-only invoke instruction
which is used by another phi node phi2 which is only used by and only uses
the invoke, then phi2 would be deleted but not the invoke instruction and
not the original phi node.

Modified patch by Adam Preuss.
This builds on the existing framework for block tracing, edge profiling and optimal edge profiling.
See -help-hidden for new flags.

checks enabled:
1) Use '<' to compare integers in a comparison function rather than '<='.
2) Use the uniqued set DefBlocks rather than Info.DefiningBlocks to initialize
the priority queue.
The speedup of scalarrepl on test-suite + SPEC2000 + SPEC2006 is a bit less, at
just under 16% rather than 17%.

eliminating a potentially quadratic data structure, this also gives a 17%
speedup when running -scalarrepl on test-suite + SPEC2000 + SPEC2006. My initial
experiment gave a greater speedup around 25%, but I moved the dominator tree
level computation from dominator tree construction to PromoteMemToReg.
Since this approach to computing IDFs has a much lower overhead than the old
code using precomputed DFs, it is worth looking at using this new code for the
second scalarrepl pass as well.

called from GVN, which claims to preserve these.
I'm skeptical that this is the actual problem behind PR8954, but
this is a stab in the right direction.

1. Take a flags argument instead of a bool. This makes
it more clear to the reader what it is used for.
2. Add a flag that says that "remapping a value not in the
map is ok".
3. Reimplement MapValue to share a bunch of code and be a lot
more efficient. For lookup failures, don't drop null values
into the map.
4. Using the new flag a bunch of code can vaporize in LinkModules
and LoopUnswitch, kill it.
No functionality change.

it could only be tested indirectly, via instcombine, gvn or some other
pass that makes use of InstructionSimplify, which means that testcases
had to be carefully contrived to dance around any other transformations
that that pass did.
