is free. The whole CodeMetrics API should probably be reworked more, but
this is enough to allow deleting the duplicate code there for computing
whether an instruction is free.
All of the passes using this have been updated to pull in TTI and hand
it to the CodeMetrics stuff. Further, a dead CodeMetrics API
(analyzeFunction) is nuked for lack of users.

Similarly inlining of the function is inhibited, if that would duplicate the call (in particular inlining is still allowed when there is only one callsite and the function has internal linkage).

minor behavior changes with this, but nothing I have seen evidence of in
the wild or expect to be meaningful. The real goal is unifying our logic
and simplifying the interfaces. A summary of the changes follows:
- Make 'callIsSmall' actually accept a callsite so it can handle
intrinsics, and simplify callers appropriately.
- Nuke a completely bogus declaration of 'callIsSmall' that was still
lurking in InlineCost.h... No idea how this got missed.
- Teach the 'isInstructionFree' about the various more intelligent
'free' heuristics that got added to the inline cost analysis during
review and testing. This mostly surrounds int->ptr and ptr->int casts.
- Switch most of the interesting parts of the inline cost analysis that
were essentially computing 'is this instruction free?' to use the code
metrics routine instead. This way we won't keep duplicating logic.
All of this is motivated by the desire to allow other passes to compute
a roughly equivalent 'cost' metric for a particular basic block as the
inline cost analysis. Sadly, re-using the same analysis for both is
really messy because only the actual inline cost analysis is ever going
to go to the contortions required for simplification, SROA analysis,
etc.

on a per-callsite walk of the called function's instructions, in
breadth-first order over the potentially reachable set of basic blocks.
This is a major shift in how inline cost analysis works to improve the
accuracy and rationality of inlining decisions. A brief outline of the
algorithm this moves to:
- Build a simplification mapping based on the callsite arguments to the
function arguments.
- Push the entry block onto a worklist of potentially-live basic blocks.
- Pop the first block off of the *front* of the worklist (for
breadth-first ordering) and walk its instructions using a custom
InstVisitor.
- For each instruction's operands, re-map them based on the
simplification mappings available for the given callsite.
- Compute any simplification possible of the instruction after
re-mapping, and store that back int othe simplification mapping.
- Compute any bonuses, costs, or other impacts of the instruction on the
cost metric.
- When the terminator is reached, replace any conditional value in the
terminator with any simplifications from the mapping we have, and add
any successors which are not proven to be dead from these
simplifications to the worklist.
- Pop the next block off of the front of the worklist, and repeat.
- As soon as the cost of inlining exceeds the threshold for the
callsite, stop analyzing the function in order to bound cost.
The primary goal of this algorithm is to perfectly handle dead code
paths. We do not want any code in trivially dead code paths to impact
inlining decisions. The previous metric was *extremely* flawed here, and
would always subtract the average cost of two successors of
a conditional branch when it was proven to become an unconditional
branch at the callsite. There was no handling of wildly different costs
between the two successors, which would cause inlining when the path
actually taken was too large, and no inlining when the path actually
taken was trivially simple. There was also no handling of the code
*path*, only the immediate successors. These problems vanish completely
now. See the added regression tests for the shiny new features -- we
skip recursive function calls, SROA-killing instructions, and high cost
complex CFG structures when dead at the callsite being analyzed.
Switching to this algorithm required refactoring the inline cost
interface to accept the actual threshold rather than simply returning
a single cost. The resulting interface is pretty bad, and I'm planning
to do lots of interface cleanup after this patch.
Several other refactorings fell out of this, but I've tried to minimize
them for this patch. =/ There is still more cleanup that can be done
here. Please point out anything that you see in review.
I've worked really hard to try to mirror at least the spirit of all of
the previous heuristics in the new model. It's not clear that they are
all correct any more, but I wanted to minimize the change in this single
patch, it's already a bit ridiculous. One heuristic that is *not* yet
mirrored is to allow inlining of functions with a dynamic alloca *if*
the caller has a dynamic alloca. I will add this back, but I think the
most reasonable way requires changes to the inliner itself rather than
just the cost metric, and so I've deferred this for a subsequent patch.
The test case is XFAIL-ed until then.
As mentioned in the review mail, this seems to make Clang run about 1%
to 2% faster in -O0, but makes its binary size grow by just under 4%.
I've looked into the 4% growth, and it can be fixed, but requires
changes to other parts of the inliner.

analysis implementation. The header was already separated. Also cleanup
all the comments in the header to follow a nice modern doxygen form.
There is still plenty of cruft here, but some of that will fall out in
subsequent refactorings and this was an easy step in the right
direction. No functionality changed here.

analysis to be methods on the cost analysis's function info object
instead of the code metrics object. These really are just users of the
code metrics, they're building the information for the function's
analysis.
This is the first step of growing the amount of information we collect
about a function in order to cope with pair-wise simplifications due to
allocas.

We want heuristics to be based on accurate data, but more importantly
we don't want llvm to behave randomly. A benign trunc inserted by an
upstream pass should not cause a wild swings in optimization
level. See PR11034. It's a general problem with threshold-based
heuristics, but we can make it less bad.

not unrolling loops that contain calls that would be better off getting inlined. This mostly
comes up when an interleaved devirtualization pass has devirtualized a call which the inliner
will inline on a future pass. Thus, rather than blocking all loops containing calls, add
a metric for "inline candidate calls" and block loops containing those instead.

don't use any InlineCostAnalyzer state, and are useful for other clients who don't necessarily want to use
all of InlineCostAnalyzer's logic, some of which is fairly inlining-specific.
