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.

References
----------

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).

70fb375383 [Statepoints 4/4] Statepoint infrastructure for garbage collection: Documentation
This is the fourth and final patch in the statepoint series.  It contains the documentation for the statepoint intrinsics and their usage.  

There's definitely still room to improve the documentation here, but I wanted to get this landed so it was available for others.  There will likely be a series of small cleanup changes over the next few weeks as we work to clarify and revise the documentation.  If you have comments or questions, please feel free to discuss them either in this commit thread, the original review thread, or on llvmdev.  Comments are more than welcome.

d1940dcca7 Clarify wording in the LangRef around !invariant.load
Clarify the wording around !invariant.load to properly reflect the semantics of such loads with respect to control dependence and location lifetime.  To the best of my knowledge, the revised wording respects the actual implementation and understanding of issues involved highlighted in the recent 'Optimization hints for "constant" loads' thread on LLVMDev.  

In particular, I'm aiming for the following results:
- To clarify that an invariant.load can fault and must respect control dependence.  In particular, it is not sound to unconditionally pull an invariant load out of a loop if that loop would potentially never execute.  
- To clarify that the invariant nature of a given pointer does not preclude the modification of that location through a pointer which is unrelated to the load operand.  In particular, initializing a location and then passing a pointer through an opaque intrinsic which produces a new unrelated pointer, should behave as expected provided that the intrinsic is memory dependent on the initializing store.  
- To clarify that storing a value to an invariant location is defined.  It can not, for example, be considered unreachable.  The value stored can be assumed to be equal to the value of any previous (or following!) invariant load, but the store itself is defined.  

I recommend that anyone interested in using !invariant.load, or optimizing for them, read over the discussion in the review thread.  A number of motivating examples are discussed.

57ec3b5488 Clarify the description of the noalias attribute
The previous description of the noalias attribute did not accurately specify
the implemented semantics, and the terminology used differed unnecessarily
from that used by the C specification to define the semantics of restrict. For
the argument attribute, the semantics can be precisely specified in terms of
objects accessed through pointers based on the arguments, and this is now what
is done.

Saying that the semantics are 'slightly weaker' than that provided by C99
restrict is not really useful without further elaboration, so that has been
removed from the sentence.

noalias on a return value is really used to mean that the function is
malloc-like (and, in fact, we use this attribute to represent
__attribute__((malloc)) in Clang), and this is a stronger guarantee than that
provided by restrict (because it is a property of the pointed-to memory region,
not just a guarantee on object access). Clarifying this is relevant to fixing
(and was motivated by the discussion on) PR21556.

90f3f15da5 Introduce a 'nonnull' metadata on Load instructions.
The newly introduced 'nonnull' metadata is analogous to existing 'nonnull' attributes, but applies to load instructions rather than call arguments or returns.  Long term, it would be nice to combine these into a single construct.   The value of the load is allowed to vary between successive loads, but null is not a valid value to be loaded by any load marked nonnull.

6c54948916 Update dwarf::ApplePropertyAttributes enum to meaningful values.
Summary:
We currently emit an DW_AT_APPLE_property_attribute with a value that is a
bitfield describing the various attributes applied to an ObjectiveC property.
While trying to add testing to one of my dwarfdump patches that would pretty
print that, I realized this information looks totally broken and has maybe
never been correct.

As with every DWARF info, we have some enum in Dwarf.h that describes this
attribute (enum ApplePropertyAttributes). It seems however that the attribute
value is set from another definition of these flags in Sema/DeclSpec.h (enum
ObjCPropertyAttributeKind). And these 2 enums aren't in sync.

This patch updates the Dwarf.h values to the ones we are (and have been for
a very long time) emitting. We change some publicly (and even documented
in SourceLevelDebugging.rst) values, but I doubt this could be an issue as
the information has been wrong for so long...

Original commit message follows.

--

This patch addresses the first stage of PR17891 by folding constant
arguments together into a single MDString.  Integers are stringified and
a `\0` character is used as a separator.

Part of PR17891.

0917b70630 DI: Fold constant arguments into a single MDString
This patch addresses the first stage of PR17891 by folding constant
arguments together into a single MDString.  Integers are stringified and
a `\0` character is used as a separator.

Part of PR17891.

Note: I've attached my testcases upgrade scripts to the PR.  If I've
just broken your out-of-tree testcases, they might help.

02474a32eb Move the complex address expression out of DIVariable and into an extra
argument of the llvm.dbg.declare/llvm.dbg.value intrinsics.

Previously, DIVariable was a variable-length field that has an optional
reference to a Metadata array consisting of a variable number of
complex address expressions. In the case of OpPiece expressions this is
wasting a lot of storage in IR, because when an aggregate type is, e.g.,
SROA'd into all of its n individual members, the IR will contain n copies
of the DIVariable, all alike, only differing in the complex address
reference at the end.

By making the complex address into an extra argument of the
dbg.value/dbg.declare intrinsics, all of the pieces can reference the
same variable and the complex address expressions can be uniqued across
the CU, too.
Down the road, this will allow us to move other flags, such as
"indirection" out of the DIVariable, too.

The new intrinsics look like this:
declare void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata %storage, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
declare void @llvm.dbg.value(metadata %storage, i64 %offset, metadata %var, metadata %expr)

This patch adds a new LLVM-local tag to DIExpressions, so we can detect
and pretty-print DIExpression metadata nodes.

What this patch doesn't do:

This patch does not touch the "Indirect" field in DIVariable; but moving
that into the expression would be a natural next step.

Thanks to dblaikie and dexonsmith for reviewing this patch!

Note: I accidentally committed a bogus older version of this patch previously.
