667d4b8de6 Introduce new linkage types linkonce_odr, weak_odr, common_odr
and extern_weak_odr.  These are the same as the non-odr versions,
except that they indicate that the global will only be overridden
by an *equivalent* global.  In C, a function with weak linkage can
be overridden by a function which behaves completely differently.
This means that IP passes have to skip weak functions, since any
deductions made from the function definition might be wrong, since
the definition could be replaced by something completely different
at link time.   This is not allowed in C++, thanks to the ODR
(One-Definition-Rule): if a function is replaced by another at
link-time, then the new function must be the same as the original
function.  If a language knows that a function or other global can
only be overridden by an equivalent global, it can give it the
weak_odr linkage type, and the optimizers will understand that it
is alright to make deductions based on the function body.  The
code generators on the other hand map weak and weak_odr linkage
to the same thing.

f23d0d392a Resubmit support for the 'nocapture' attribute.
The problematic part of this patch is that we were out of attribute bits,
requiring some fancy bit hacking to make it fit (by shrinking alignment)
without breaking existing users or the file format.

This change will require users to rebuild llvm-gcc to match llvm.

e642658480 Introducing nocapture, a parameter attribute for pointers to indicate that the
callee will not introduce any new aliases of that pointer.

The attributes had all bits allocated already, so I decided to collapse
alignment. Alignment was previously stored as a 16-bit integer from bits 16 to
32 of the attribute, but it was required to be a power of 2. Now it's stored in
log2 encoded form in five bits from 16 to 21. That gives us 11 more bits of
space.

You may have already noticed that you only need four bits to encode a 16-bit
power of two, so why five bits? Because the AsmParser accepted 32-bit
alignments, even though we couldn't store them (they were silently discarded).
Now we can store them in memory, but not in the bitcode.

The bitcode format was already storing these as 64-bit VBR integers. So, the
bitcode format stays the same, keeping the alignment values stored as 16 bit
raw values. There's some hideous code in the reader and writer that deals with
this, waiting to be ripped out the moment we run out of bits again and have to
replace the parameter attributes table encoding.

02ff308aa1 Extend the 'noalias' attribute to function return values. This is intended to
indicate functions that allocate, such as operator new, or list::insert. The
actual definition is slightly less strict (for now).

No changes to the bitcode reader/writer, asm printer or verifier were needed.
