6690dbffe0 Add argmemonly attribute.
This change adds new attribute called "argmemonly". Function marked with this attribute can only access memory through it's argument pointers. This attribute directly corresponds to the "OnlyAccessesArgumentPointees" ModRef behaviour in alias analysis.

751c4be705 New EH representation for MSVC compatibility
Summary:
This introduces new instructions neccessary to implement MSVC-compatible
exception handling support.  Most of the middle-end and none of the
back-end haven't been audited or updated to take them into account.

1c5cf241af ADT: Add a string APSInt constructor.
This commit moves the APSInt initialization code that's used by
the LLLexer class into a new APSInt constructor that constructs
APSInts from strings.

This change is useful for MIR Serialization, as it would allow
the MILexer class to use the same APSInt initialization as 
LLexer when parsing immediate machine operands.

7ffec838a2 Protection against stack-based memory corruption errors using SafeStack
This patch adds the safe stack instrumentation pass to LLVM, which separates
the program stack into a safe stack, which stores return addresses, register
spills, and local variables that are statically verified to be accessed
in a safe way, and the unsafe stack, which stores everything else. Such
separation makes it much harder for an attacker to corrupt objects on the
safe stack, including function pointers stored in spilled registers and
return addresses. You can find more information about the safe stack, as
well as other parts of or control-flow hijack protection technique in our
OSDI paper on code-pointer integrity (http://dslab.epfl.ch/pubs/cpi.pdf)
and our project website (http://levee.epfl.ch).

The overhead of our implementation of the safe stack is very close to zero
(0.01% on the Phoronix benchmarks). This is lower than the overhead of
stack cookies, which are supported by LLVM and are commonly used today,
yet the security guarantees of the safe stack are strictly stronger than
stack cookies. In some cases, the safe stack improves performance due to
better cache locality.

Our current implementation of the safe stack is stable and robust, we
used it to recompile multiple projects on Linux including Chromium, and
we also recompiled the entire FreeBSD user-space system and more than 100
packages. We ran unit tests on the FreeBSD system and many of the packages
and observed no errors caused by the safe stack. The safe stack is also fully
binary compatible with non-instrumented code and can be applied to parts of
a program selectively.

This patch is our implementation of the safe stack on top of LLVM. The
patches make the following changes:

- Add the safestack function attribute, similar to the ssp, sspstrong and
  sspreq attributes.

- Add the SafeStack instrumentation pass that applies the safe stack to all
  functions that have the safestack attribute. This pass moves all unsafe local
  variables to the unsafe stack with a separate stack pointer, whereas all
  safe variables remain on the regular stack that is managed by LLVM as usual.

- Invoke the pass as the last stage before code generation (at the same time
  the existing cookie-based stack protector pass is invoked).

- Add unit tests for the safe stack.

Original patch by Volodymyr Kuznetsov and others at the Dependable Systems
Lab at EPFL; updates and upstreaming by myself.

5ff5907996 [IR] Introduce a dereferenceable_or_null(N) attribute.
Summary:
If a pointer is marked as dereferenceable_or_null(N), LLVM assumes it
is either `null` or `dereferenceable(N)` or both.  This change only
introduces the attribute and adds a token test case for the `llvm-as`
/ `llvm-dis`.  It does not hook up other parts of the optimizer to
actually exploit the attribute -- those changes will come later.

For pointers in address space 0, `dereferenceable(N)` is now exactly
equivalent to `dereferenceable_or_null(N)` && `nonnull`.  For other
address spaces, `dereferenceable(N)` is potentially weaker than
`dereferenceable_or_null(N)` && `nonnull` (since we could have a null
`dereferenceable(N)` pointer).

The motivating case for this change is Java (and other managed
languages), where pointers are either `null` or dereferenceable up to
some usually known-at-compile-time constant offset.

9f8d4037a6 AsmParser/Writer: Handle symbolic constants in DI 'flags:'
Parse (and write) symbolic constants in debug info `flags:` fields.
This prevents a readability (and CHECK-ability) regression with the new
debug info hierarchy.

Old (well, current) assembly, with pretty-printing:

    !{!"...\\0016387", ...} ; ... [public] [rvalue reference]

Flags field without this change:

   !MDDerivedType(flags: 16387, ...)

Flags field with this change:

   !MDDerivedType(flags: DIFlagPublic | DIFlagRValueReference, ...)

As discussed in the review thread, this isn't a final state.  Most of
these flags correspond to `DW_AT_` symbolic constants, and we might
eventually want to support arbitrary attributes in some form.  However,
as it stands now, some of the flags correspond to other concepts (like
`FlagStaticMember`); until things are refactored this is the simplest
way to move forward without regressing assembly.

efcb266311 AsmParser: Use do{}while(false) in macros, NFC
`do { ... } while (false)` is standard macro etiquette for forcing
instantiations into a single statement and requiring a `;` afterwards,
making statement-like macros easier to reason about (and harder to use

I'm about to modify the macros in `LexIdentifier()`.  I noticed that the
`KEYWORD` macro *does* follow the rule, so I thought I'd clean up the
other macros to match (otherwise might not be worth changing, since the
benefits of this pattern are fairly irrelevant here).

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()`.

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.

----------

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).

d5de327da0 X86: Implement the vectorcall calling convention
This is a Microsoft calling convention that supports both x86 and x86_64
subtargets. It passes vector and floating point arguments in XMM0-XMM5,
and passes them indirectly once they are consumed.

Homogenous vector aggregates of up to four elements can be passed in
sequential vector registers, but this part is not implemented in LLVM
and will be handled in Clang.

On 32-bit x86, it is similar to fastcall in that it uses ecx:edx as
integer register parameters and is callee cleanup. On x86_64, it
delegates to the normal win64 calling convention.

8f2a85e099 IR: add "cmpxchg weak" variant to support permitted failure.
This commit adds a weak variant of the cmpxchg operation, as described
in C++11. A cmpxchg instruction with this modifier is permitted to
fail to store, even if the comparison indicated it should.

As a result, cmpxchg instructions must return a flag indicating
success in addition to their original iN value loaded. Thus, for
uniformity *all* cmpxchg instructions now return "{ iN, i1 }". The
second flag is 1 when the store succeeded.

At the DAG level, a new ATOMIC_CMP_SWAP_WITH_SUCCESS node has been
added as the natural representation for the new cmpxchg instructions.
It is a strong cmpxchg.

By default this gets Expanded to the existing ATOMIC_CMP_SWAP during
Legalization, so existing backends should see no change in behaviour.
If they wish to deal with the enhanced node instead, they can call
setOperationAction on it. Beware: as a node with 2 results, it cannot
be selected from TableGen.

Currently, no use is made of the extra information provided in this
patch. Test updates are almost entirely adapting the input IR to the
new scheme.

Summary for out of tree users:
------------------------------

+ Legacy Bitcode files are upgraded during read.
+ Legacy assembly IR files will be invalid.
+ Front-ends must adapt to different type for "cmpxchg".
+ Backends should be unaffected by default.

This also adds backend support for generating the jump-instruction tables on ARM and X86.

This calling convention was an attempt to match the MSVC C++ ABI for

because it would have required splitting every CC available on Windows

48ee81c679 AsmParser: restore LLVM IR compatibility for linker_private{,_weak}
This restores the linker_private and linker_private_weak lexemes to permit
translation of the deprecated lexmes.  The behaviour is identical to the bitcode
handling: linker_private and linker_private_weak are handled as if private had
been specified.  This enables compatibility with IR generated by LLVM 3.4.

1f21e0dd0d Remove the linker_private and linker_private_weak linkages.
These linkages were introduced some time ago, but it was never very
clear what exactly their semantics were or what they should be used
for. Some investigation found these uses:

* utf-16 strings in clang.
* non-unnamed_addr strings produced by the sanitizers.

It turns out they were just working around a more fundamental problem.
For some sections a MachO linker needs a symbol in order to split the
section into atoms, and llvm had no idea that was the case. I fixed
that in r201700 and it is now safe to use the private linkage. When
the object ends up in a section that requires symbols, llvm will use a
'l' prefix instead of a 'L' prefix and things just work.

With that, these linkages were already dead, but there was a potential
future user in the objc metadata information. I am still looking at
CGObjcMac.cpp, but at this point I am convinced that linker_private
and linker_private_weak are not what they need.

The objc uses are currently split in

* Regular symbols (no '\01' prefix). LLVM already directly provides
whatever semantics they need.
* Uses of a private name (start with "\01L" or "\01l") and private
linkage. We can drop the "\01L" and "\01l" prefixes as soon as llvm
agrees with clang on L being ok or not for a given section. I have two
patches in code review for this.
* Uses of private name and weak linkage.

The last case is the one that one could think would fit one of these
linkages. That is not the case. The semantics are

* the linker will merge these symbol by *name*.
* the linker will hide them in the final DSO.

Given that the merging is done by name, any of the private (or
internal) linkages would be a bad match. They allow llvm to rename the
symbols, and that is really not what we want. From the llvm point of
view, these objects should really be (linkonce|weak)(_odr)?.

For now, just keeping the "\01l" prefix is probably the best for these
symbols. If we one day want to have a more direct support in llvm,
IMHO what we should add is not a linkage, it is just a hidden_symbol
attribute. It would be applicable to multiple linkages. For example,
on weak it would produce the current behavior we have for objc
metadata. On internal, it would be equivalent to private (and we
should then remove private).

65c98b9da4 [ms-cxxabi] Add a new calling convention that swaps 'this' and 'sret'
MSVC always places the 'this' parameter for a method first.  The
implicit 'sret' pointer for methods always comes second.  We already
implement this for __thiscall by putting sret parameters on the stack,
but __cdecl methods require putting both parameters on the stack in
opposite order.

Using a special calling convention allows frontends to keep the sret
parameter first, which avoids breaking lots of assumptions in LLVM and
Clang.

Fixes PR15768 with the corresponding change in Clang.

ceaf829339 Add two new calling conventions for runtime calls
This patch adds two new target-independent calling conventions for runtime
calls - PreserveMost and PreserveAll.
The target-specific implementation for X86-64 is defined as following:
  - Arguments are passed as for the default C calling convention
  - The same applies for the return value(s)
  - PreserveMost preserves all GPRs - except R11
  - PreserveAll preserves all GPRs and all XMMs/YMMs - except R11

bc65a8d518 Move the LLVM IR asm writer header files into the IR directory, as they
are part of the core IR library in order to support dumping and other
basic functionality.

Rename the 'Assembly' include directory to 'AsmParser' to match the
library name and the only functionality left their -- printing has been
in the core IR library for quite some time.

Update all of the #includes to match.

All of this started because I wanted to have the layering in good shape
before I started adding support for printing LLVM IR using the new pass
infrastructure, and commandline support for the new pass infrastructure.

4b70bfc905 Begin adding docs and IR-level support for the inalloca attribute
The inalloca attribute is designed to support passing C++ objects by
value in the Microsoft C++ ABI.  It behaves the same as byval, except
that it always implies that the argument is in memory and that the bytes
are never copied.  This attribute allows the caller to take the address
of an outgoing argument's memory and execute arbitrary code to store
into it.

This patch adds basic IR support, docs, and verification.  It does not
attempt to implement any lowering or fix any possibly broken transforms.

When this patch lands, a complete description of this feature should
appear at http://llvm.org/docs/InAlloca.html .

edeaa6454e Make it explicit that nulls are not allowed in names.
The object files we support use null terminated strings, so there is no way to
support these.

This patch adds an assert to catch bad API use and an error check in the .ll
parser.

623d2e618f [Stackmap] Add AnyReg calling convention support for patchpoint intrinsic.
The idea of the AnyReg Calling Convention is to provide the call arguments in
registers, but not to force them to be placed in a paticular order into a
specified set of registers. Instead it is up tp the register allocator to assign
any register as it sees fit. The same applies to the return value (if
applicable).

19794da02c Remove linkonce_odr_auto_hide.
linkonce_odr_auto_hide was in incomplete attempt to implement a way
for the linker to hide symbols that are known to be available in every
TU and whose addresses are not relevant for a particular DSO.

It was redundant in that it all its uses are equivalent to
linkonce_odr+unnamed_addr. Unlike those, it has never been connected
to clang or llvm's optimizers, so it was effectively dead.

Given that nothing produces it, this patch just nukes it
(other than the llvm-c enum value).
