This name is less descriptive, but it sort of puts things in the
'llvm.frame...' namespace, relating it to frameallocate and
frameaddress. It also avoids using "allocate" and "allocation" together.

These intrinsics allow multiple functions to share a single stack
allocation from one function's call frame. The function with the
allocation may only perform one allocation, and it must be in the entry
block.
Functions accessing the allocation call llvm.recoverframeallocation with
the function whose frame they are accessing and a frame pointer from an
active call frame of that function.
These intrinsics are very difficult to inline correctly, so the
intention is that they be introduced rarely, or at least very late
during EH preparation.

In order to make comdats always explicit in the IR, we decided to make
the syntax a bit more compact for the case of a GlobalObject in a
comdat with the same name.
Just dropping the $name causes problems for
@foo = globabl i32 0, comdat
$bar = comdat ...
and
declare void @foo() comdat
$bar = comdat ...
So the syntax is changed to
@g1 = globabl i32 0, comdat($c1)
@g2 = globabl i32 0, comdat
and
declare void @foo() comdat($c1)
declare void @foo() comdat

Now that `Metadata` is typeless, reflect that in the assembly. These
are the matching assembly changes for the metadata/value split in
r223802.
- Only use the `metadata` type when referencing metadata from a call
intrinsic -- i.e., only when it's used as a `Value`.
- Stop pretending that `ValueAsMetadata` is wrapped in an `MDNode`
when referencing it from call intrinsics.
So, assembly like this:
define @foo(i32 %v) {
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 %v}, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 7}, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !1, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{metadata !3}, metadata !0)
ret void, !bar !2
}
!0 = metadata !{metadata !2}
!1 = metadata !{i32* @global}
!2 = metadata !{metadata !3}
!3 = metadata !{}
turns into this:
define @foo(i32 %v) {
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 %v, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 7, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32* @global, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{!3}, metadata !0)
ret void, !bar !2
}
!0 = !{!2}
!1 = !{i32* @global}
!2 = !{!3}
!3 = !{}

The statepoint intrinsics are intended to enable precise root tracking through the compiler as to support garbage collectors of all types. The addition of the statepoint intrinsics to LLVM should have no impact on the compilation of any program which does not contain them. There are no side tables created, no extra metadata, and no inhibited optimizations.
A statepoint works by transforming a call site (or safepoint poll site) into an explicit relocation operation. It is the frontend's responsibility (or eventually the safepoint insertion pass we've developed, but that's not part of this patch series) to ensure that any live pointer to a GC object is correctly added to the statepoint and explicitly relocated. The relocated value is just a normal SSA value (as seen by the optimizer), so merges of relocated and unrelocated values are just normal phis. The explicit relocation operation, the fact the statepoint is assumed to clobber all memory, and the optimizers standard semantics ensure that the relocations flow through IR optimizations correctly.
This is the first patch in a small series. This patch contains only the IR parts; the documentation and backend support will be following separately. The entire series can be seen as one combined whole in http://reviews.llvm.org/D5683.

Range metadata applies to loads, call, and invokes. We were validating that metadata applied to loads was correct according to the LangRef, but we were not validating metadata applied to calls or invokes. This change extracts the checking functionality to a common location, reuses it for all valid locations, and adds a simple test to ensure a misused range on a call gets reported.

We've rejected these kinds of functions since r28405 in 2006 because
it's impossible to lower the return of a callee cleanup varargs
function. However there are lots of legal ways to leave such a function
without returning, such as aborting. Today we can leave a function with
a musttail call to another function with the correct prototype, and
everything works out.
I'm removing the verifier check declaring that a normal return from such

Before this patch we had
@a = weak global ...
but
@b = alias weak ...
The patch changes aliases to look more like global variables.
Looking at some really old code suggests that the reason was that the old
bison based parser had a reduction for alias linkages and another one for
global variable linkages. Putting the alias first avoided the reduce/reduce
conflict.
The days of the old .ll parser are long gone. The new one parses just "linkage"
and a later check is responsible for deciding if a linkage is valid in a
given context.

Summary:
With this patch, range metadata can be added to call/invoke including
IntrinsicInst. Previously, it could only be added to load.
Rename computeKnownBitsLoad to computeKnownBitsFromRangeMetadata because
range metadata is not only used by load.
Update the language reference to reflect this change.
Test Plan:
Add several tests in range-2.ll to confirm the verifier is happy with
having range metadata on call/invoke.
Add two tests in AddOverFlow.ll to confirm annotating range metadata to
call/invoke can benefit InstCombine.

The verifier follows GlobalAlias operands so that it can detect cycles of
alias definitions. It was doing this in a way that caused it to also recurse
through initializers for the GlobalValue aliasees, and it would fail when
an initializer refers to a global that is a declaration and not a definition.
This patch causes it to stop recursing when it hits a global definition.

It includes a pass that rewrites all indirect calls to jumptable functions to pass through these tables.
This also adds backend support for generating the jump-instruction tables on ARM and X86.

This patch changes GlobalAlias to point to an arbitrary ConstantExpr and it is
up to MC (or the system assembler) to decide if that expression is valid or not.
This reduces our ability to diagnose invalid uses and how early we can spot
them, but it also lets us do things like
@test5 = alias inttoptr(i32 sub (i32 ptrtoint (i32* @test2 to i32),
i32 ptrtoint (i32* @bar to i32)) to i32*)
An important implication of this patch is that the notion of aliased global
doesn't exist any more. The alias has to encode the information needed to
access it in its metadata (linkage, visibility, type, etc).
Another consequence to notice is that getSection has to return a "const char *".
It could return a NullTerminatedStringRef if there was such a thing, but when
that was proposed the decision was to just uses "const char*" for that.

This allows us to put dynamic initializers for weak data into the same
comdat group as the data being initialized. This is necessary for MSVC

the combination to help GlobalOpt fire more often for weak data with
guarded initialization on other platforms.

This patch changes the design of GlobalAlias so that it doesn't take a
ConstantExpr anymore. It now points directly to a GlobalObject, but its type is
independent of the aliasee type.
To avoid changing all alias related tests in this patches, I kept the common
syntax
@foo = alias i32* @bar
to mean the same as now. The cases that used to use cast now use the more
general syntax
@foo = alias i16, i32* @bar.
Note that GlobalAlias now behaves a bit more like GlobalVariable. We
know that its type is always a pointer, so we omit the '*'.
For the bitcode, a nice surprise is that we were writing both identical types
already, so the format change is minimal. Auto upgrade is handled by looking
through the casts and no new fields are needed for now. New bitcode will
simply have different types for Alias and Aliasee.
One last interesting point in the patch is that replaceAllUsesWith becomes
smart enough to avoid putting a ConstantExpr in the aliasee. This seems better
than checking and updating every caller.
A followup patch will delete getAliasedGlobal now that it is redundant. Another
patch will add support for an explicit offset.

MSVC always places the implicit sret parameter after the implicit this
parameter of instance methods. We used to handle this for
x86_thiscallcc by allocating the sret parameter on the stack and leaving
the this pointer in ecx, but that doesn't handle alternative calling
conventions like cdecl, stdcall, fastcall, or the win64 convention.
Instead, change the verifier to allow sret on the second parameter.
This also requires changing the Mips and X86 backends to return the
argument with the sret parameter, instead of assuming that the sret
parameter comes first.
The Sparc backend also returns sret parameters in a register, but I
wasn't able to update it to handle secondary sret parameters. It
currently calls report_fatal_error if you feed it an sret in the second
parameter.

On ELF and COFF an alias is just another name for a position in the file.
There is no way to refer to a position in another file, so an alias to
undefined is meaningless.
MachO currently doesn't support aliases. The spec has a N_INDR, which when
implemented will have a different set of restrictions. Adding support for
it shouldn't be harder than any other IR extension.
For now, having the IR represent what is actually possible with current
tools makes it easier to fix the design of GlobalAlias.

The grammar for LLVM IR is not well specified in any document but seems
to obey the following rules:
- Attributes which have parenthesized arguments are never preceded by
commas. This form of attribute is the only one which ever has
optional arguments. However, not all of these attributes support
optional arguments: 'thread_local' supports an optional argument but
'addrspace' does not. Interestingly, 'addrspace' is documented as
being a "qualifier". What constitutes a qualifier? I cannot find a
definition.
- Some attributes use a space between the keyword and the value.
Examples of this form are 'align' and 'section'. These are always
preceded by a comma.
- Otherwise, the attribute has no argument. These attributes do not
have a preceding comma.
Sometimes an attribute goes before the instruction, between the
instruction and it's type, or after it's type. 'atomicrmw' has
'volatile' between the instruction and the type while 'call' has 'tail'
preceding the instruction.
With all this in mind, it seems most consistent for 'inalloca' on an
'inalloca' instruction to occur before between the instruction and the
type. Unlike the current formulation, there would be no preceding
comma. The combination 'alloca inalloca' doesn't look particularly
appetizing, perhaps a better spelling of 'inalloca' is down the road.

This makes the 'verifyFunction' and 'verifyModule' functions totally
independent operations on the LLVM IR. It also cleans up their API a bit
by lifting the abort behavior into their clients and just using an
optional raw_ostream parameter to control printing.
The implementation of the verifier is now just an InstVisitor with no
multiple inheritance. It also is significantly more const-correct, and
hides the const violations internally. The two layers that force us to
break const correctness are building a DomTree and dispatching through
the InstVisitor.
A new VerifierPass is used to implement the legacy pass manager
interface in terms of the other pieces.
The error messages produced may be slightly different now, and we may
have slightly different short circuiting behavior with different usage
models of the verifier, but generally everything works equivalently and
this unblocks wiring the verifier up to the new pass manager.

Summary:
The only current use of this flag is to mark the alloca as dynamic, even
if its in the entry block. The stack adjustment for the alloca can
never be folded into the prologue because the call may clear it and it
has to be allocated at the top of the stack.

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.
