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).

This is the third patch in a small series. It contains the CodeGen support for lowering the gc.statepoint intrinsic sequences (223078) to the STATEPOINT pseudo machine instruction (223085). The change also includes the set of helper routines and classes for working with gc.statepoints, gc.relocates, and gc.results since the lowering code uses them.
With this change, gc.statepoints should be functionally complete. The documentation will follow in the fourth change, and there will likely be some cleanup changes, but interested parties can start experimenting now.
I'm not particularly happy with the amount of code or complexity involved with the lowering step, but at least it's fairly well isolated. The statepoint lowering code is split into it's own files and anyone not working on the statepoint support itself should be able to ignore it.
During the lowering process, we currently spill aggressively to stack. This is not entirely ideal (and we have plans to do better), but it's functional, relatively straight forward, and matches closely the implementations of the patchpoint intrinsics. Most of the complexity comes from trying to keep relocated copies of values in the same stack slots across statepoints. Doing so avoids the insertion of pointless load and store instructions to reshuffle the stack. The current implementation isn't as effective as I'd like, but it is functional and 'good enough' for many common use cases.
In the long term, I'd like to figure out how to integrate the statepoint lowering with the register allocator. In principal, we shouldn't need to eagerly spill at all. The register allocator should do any spilling required and the statepoint should simply record that fact. Depending on how challenging that turns out to be, we may invest in a smarter global stack slot assignment mechanism as a stop gap measure.

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.

The AAPCS treats small structs and homogeneous floating (or vector) aggregates
specially, and guarantees they either get passed as a contiguous block of
registers, or prevent any future use of those registers and get passed on the
stack.
This concept can fit quite neatly into LLVM's own type system, mapping an HFA
to [N x float] and so on, and small structs to [N x i64]. Doing so allows
front-ends to emit AAPCS compliant code without having to duplicate the
register counting logic.

clearly only exactly equal width ptrtoint and inttoptr casts are no-op
casts, it says so right there in the langref. Make the code agree.
Original log from r220277:
Teach the load analysis to allow finding available values which require
inttoptr or ptrtoint cast provided there is datalayout available.
Eventually, the datalayout can just be required but in practice it will
always be there today.
To go with the ability to expose available values requiring a ptrtoint
or inttoptr cast, helpers are added to perform one of these three casts.
These smarts are necessary to finish canonicalizing loads and stores to
the operational type requirements without regressing fundamental
combines.
I've added some test cases. These should actually improve as the load
combining and store combining improves, but they may fundamentally be
highlighting some missing combines for select in addition to exercising
the specific added logic to load analysis.

Introduced new target-independent intrinsics in order to support masked vector loads and stores. The loop vectorizer optimizes loops containing conditional memory accesses by generating these intrinsics for existing targets AVX2 and AVX-512. The vectorizer asks the target about availability of masked vector loads and stores.
Added SDNodes for masked operations and lowering patterns for X86 code generator.
Examples:
<16 x i32> @llvm.masked.load.v16i32(i8* %addr, <16 x i32> %passthru, i32 4 /* align */, <16 x i1> %mask)
declare void @llvm.masked.store.v8f64(i8* %addr, <8 x double> %value, i32 4, <8 x i1> %mask)
Scalarizer for other targets (not AVX2/AVX-512) will be done in a separate patch.

Having the operands at the back prevents subclasses from safely adding
fields. Move them to the front.
Instead of replicating the custom `malloc()`, `free()` and `DestroyFlag`
logic that was there before, overload `new` and `delete`.
I added calls to a new `GenericMDNode::dropAllReferences()` in
`LLVMContextImpl::~LLVMContextImpl()`. There's a maze of callbacks
happening during teardown, and this resolves them before we enter
the destructors.

Split `MDNode` into two classes:
- `GenericMDNode`, which is uniquable (and for now, always starts
uniqued). Once `Metadata` is split from the `Value` hierarchy, this
class will lose the ability to RAUW itself.
- `MDNodeFwdDecl`, which is used for the "temporary" interface, is
never uniqued, and isn't managed by `LLVMContext` at all.
I've left most of the guts in `MDNode` for now, but I'll incrementally
move things to the right places (or delete the functionality, as
appropriate).

Change uniquing from a `FoldingSet` to a `DenseSet` with custom
`DenseMapInfo`. Unfortunately, this doesn't save any memory, since
`DenseSet<T>` is a simple wrapper for `DenseMap<T, char>`, but I'll come
back to fix that later.
I used the name `GenericDenseMapInfo` to the custom `DenseMapInfo` since
I'll be splitting `MDNode` into two classes soon: `MDNodeFwdDecl` for
temporaries, and `GenericMDNode` for everything else.
I also added a non-debug-info reduced version of a type-uniquing test
that started failing on an earlier draft of this patch.

This patch enables the vec_vsx_ld and vec_vsx_st intrinsics for
PowerPC, which provide programmer access to the lxvd2x, lxvw4x,
stxvd2x, and stxvw4x instructions.
New LLVM intrinsics are provided to represent these four instructions
in IntrinsicsPowerPC.td. These are patterned after the similar
intrinsics for lvx and stvx (Altivec). In PPCInstrVSX.td, these
intrinsics are tied to the code gen patterns, with additional patterns
to allow plain vanilla loads and stores to still generate these
instructions.
At -O1 and higher the intrinsics are immediately converted to loads
and stores in InstCombineCalls.cpp. This will open up more
optimization opportunities while still allowing the correct
instructions to be generated. (Similar code exists for aligned
Altivec loads and stores.)
The new intrinsics are added to the code that checks for consecutive
loads and stores in PPCISelLowering.cpp, as well as to
PPCTargetLowering::getTgtMemIntrinsic().
There's a new test to verify the correct instructions are generated.
The loads and stores tend to be reordered, so the test just counts
their number. It runs at -O2, as it's not very effective to test this
at -O0, when many unnecessary loads and stores are generated.
I ended up having to modify vsx-fma-m.ll. It turns out this test case
is slightly unreliable, but I don't know a good way to prevent
problems with it. The xvmaddmdp instructions read and write the same
register, which is one of the multiplicands. Commutativity allows
either to be chosen. If the FMAs are reordered differently than
expected by the test, the register assignment can be different as a
result. Hopefully this doesn't change often.
There is a companion patch for Clang.

This introduces the symbol rewriter. This is an IR->IR transformation that is
implemented as a CodeGenPrepare pass. This allows for the transparent
adjustment of the symbols during compilation.
It provides a clean, simple, elegant solution for symbol inter-positioning. This
technique is often used, such as in the various sanitizers and performance
analysis.
The control of this is via a custom YAML syntax map file that indicates source
to destination mapping, so as to avoid having the compiler to know the exact
details of the source to destination transformations.

Summary:
This makes PIC levels a Module flag attribute, which can be queried by the
backend. The flag is named `PIC Level`, and can have a value of:
0 - Backend-default
1 - Small-model (-fpic)
2 - Large-model (-fPIC)
These match the `-pic-level' command line argument for clang, and the value of the
preprocessor macro `__PIC__'.
Test Plan:
New flags tests specific for the 'PIC Level' module flag.
Tests to be added as part of a future commit for PowerPC, which will use this new API.
