4b678bff4e Bring r226038 back.
No change in this commit, but clang was changed to also produce trivial comdats when
needed.

Original message:

Don't create new comdats in CodeGen.

This patch stops the implicit creation of comdats during codegen.

Clang now sets the comdat explicitly when it is required. With this patch clang and gcc
now produce the same result in pr19848.

10b853882c [PM] Replace the Pass argument to SplitEdge with specific analyses used
and updated.

This may appear to remove handling for things like alias analysis when
splitting critical edges here, but in fact no callers of SplitEdge
relied on this. Similarly, all of them wanted to preserve LCSSA if there
was any update of the loop info. That makes the interface much simpler.

With this, all of BasicBlockUtils.h is free of Pass arguments and
prepared for the new pass manager. This is tho majority of utilities
that relied on pass arguments.

7fac1d945f [SelectionDAG] Allow targets to specify legality of extloads' result
type (in addition to the memory type).

The *LoadExt* legalization handling used to only have one type, the
memory type.  This forced users to assume that as long as the extload
for the memory type was declared legal, and the result type was legal,
the whole extload was legal.

However, this isn't always the case.  For instance, on X86, with AVX,
this is legal:
    v4i32 load, zext from v4i8
but this isn't:
    v4i64 load, zext from v4i8
Whereas v4i64 is (arguably) legal, even without AVX2.

Note that the same thing was done a while ago for truncstores (r46140),
but I assume no one needed it yet for extloads, so here we go.

Calls to getLoadExtAction were changed to add the value type, found
manually in the surrounding code.

Calls to setLoadExtAction were mechanically changed, by wrapping the
call in a loop, to match previous behavior.  The loop iterates over
the MVT subrange corresponding to the memory type (FP vectors, etc...).
I also pulled neighboring setTruncStoreActions into some of the loops;
those shouldn't make a difference, as the additional types are illegal.
(e.g., i128->i1 truncstores on PPC.)

No functional change intended.

5b17297b3d [CodeGen] Add print and verify pass after each MachineFunctionPass by default
Previously print+verify passes were added in a very unsystematic way, which is
annoying when debugging as you miss intermediate steps and allows bugs to stay
unnotice when no verification is performed.

To make this change practical I added the possibility to explicitely disable
verification. I used this option on all places where no verification was
performed previously (because alot of places actually don't pass the
MachineVerifier).
In the long term these problems should be fixed properly and verification
enabled after each pass. I'll enable some more verification in subsequent
commits.

This is the 2nd attempt at this after realizing that PassManager::add() may
actually delete the pass.

d12434058d Add out of line virtual destructors to all LLVMTargetMachine subclasses
These recently all grew a unique_ptr<TargetLoweringObjectFile> member in
r221878.  When anyone calls a virtual method of a class, clang-cl
requires all virtual methods to be semantically valid. This includes the
implicit virtual destructor, which triggers instantiation of the
unique_ptr destructor, which fails because the type being deleted is
incomplete.

This is just part of the ongoing saga of PR20337, which is affecting
Blink as well. Because the MSVC ABI doesn't have key functions, we end
up referencing the vtable and implicit destructor on any virtual call
through a class. We don't actually end up emitting the dtor, so it'd be
good if we could avoid this unneeded type completion work.

6a222ec893 Pass an ArrayRef to MCDisassembler::getInstruction.
With this patch MCDisassembler::getInstruction takes an ArrayRef<uint8_t>
instead of a MemoryObject.

Even on X86 there is a maximum size an instruction can have. Given
that, it seems way simpler and more efficient to just pass an ArrayRef
to the disassembler instead of a MemoryObject and have it do a virtual
call every time it wants some extra bytes.

d310963833 Erase fence insertion from SelectionDAGBuilder.cpp (NFC)
Summary:
Backends can use setInsertFencesForAtomic to signal to the middle-end that
montonic is the only memory ordering they can accept for
stores/loads/rmws/cmpxchg. The code lowering those accesses with a stronger
ordering to fences + monotonic accesses is currently living in
SelectionDAGBuilder.cpp. In this patch I propose moving this logic out of it
for several reasons:
- There is lots of redundancy to avoid: extremely similar logic already
  exists in AtomicExpand.
- The current code in SelectionDAGBuilder does not use any target-hooks, it
  does the same transformation for every backend that requires it
- As a result it is plain *unsound*, as it was apparently designed for ARM.
  It happens to mostly work for the other targets because they are extremely
  conservative, but Power for example had to switch to AtomicExpand to be
  able to use lwsync safely (see r218331).
- Because it produces IR-level fences, it cannot be made sound ! This is noted
  in the C++11 standard (section 29.3, page 1140):
```
Fences cannot, in general, be used to restore sequential consistency for atomic
operations with weaker ordering semantics.
```
It can also be seen by the following example (called IRIW in the litterature):
```
atomic<int> x = y = 0;
int r1, r2, r3, r4;
Thread 0:
  x.store(1);
Thread 1:
  y.store(1);
Thread 2:
  r1 = x.load();
  r2 = y.load();
Thread 3:
  r3 = y.load();
  r4 = x.load();
```
r1 = r3 = 1 and r2 = r4 = 0 is impossible as long as the accesses are all seq_cst.
But if they are lowered to monotonic accesses, no amount of fences can prevent it..

This patch does three things (I could cut it into parts, but then some of them
would not be tested/testable, please tell me if you would prefer that):
- it provides a default implementation for emitLeadingFence/emitTrailingFence in
terms of IR-level fences, that mimic the original logic of SelectionDAGBuilder.
As we saw above, this is unsound, but the best that can be done without knowing
the targets well (and there is a comment warning about this risk).
- it then switches Mips/Sparc/XCore to use AtomicExpand, relying on this default
implementation (that exactly replicates the logic of SelectionDAGBuilder, so no
functional change)
- it finally erase this logic from SelectionDAGBuilder as it is dead-code.

Ideally, each target would define its own override for emitLeading/TrailingFence
using target-specific fences, but I do not know the Sparc/Mips/XCore memory model
well enough to do this, and they appear to be dealing fine with the ARM-inspired
default expansion for now (probably because they are overly conservative, as
Power was). If anyone wants to compile fences more agressively on these
platforms, the long comment should make it clear why he should first override
emitLeading/TrailingFence.

Test Plan: make check-all, no functional change

7d54c5b0f2 Make sure no loads resulting from load->switch DAGCombine are marked invariant
Currently when DAGCombine converts loads feeding a switch into a switch of
addresses feeding a load the new load inherits the isInvariant flag of the left
side. This is incorrect since invariant loads can be reordered in cases where it
is illegal to reoarder normal loads.

This patch adds an isInvariant parameter to getExtLoad() and updates all call
sites to pass in the data if they have it or false if they don't. It also
changes the DAGCombine to use that data to make the right decision when
creating the new load.

2c7c54c86c AA metadata refactoring (introduce AAMDNodes)
In order to enable the preservation of noalias function parameter information
after inlining, and the representation of block-level __restrict__ pointer
information (etc.), additional kinds of aliasing metadata will be introduced.
This metadata needs to be carried around in AliasAnalysis::Location objects
(and MMOs at the SDAG level), and so we need to generalize the current scheme
(which is hard-coded to just one TBAA MDNode*).

This commit introduces only the necessary refactoring to allow for the
introduction of other aliasing metadata types, but does not actually introduce
any (that will come in a follow-up commit). What it does introduce is a new
AAMDNodes structure to hold all of the aliasing metadata nodes associated with
a particular memory-accessing instruction, and uses that structure instead of
the raw MDNode* in AliasAnalysis::Location, etc.

No functionality change intended.

38d8be1ad8 CodeGen: Stick constant pool entries in COMDAT sections for WinCOFF
COFF lacks a feature that other object file formats support: mergeable
sections.

To work around this, MSVC sticks constant pool entries in special COMDAT
sections so that each constant is in it's own section.  This permits
unused constants to be dropped and it also allows duplicate constants in
different translation units to get merged together.

This fixes PR20262.

75909261f0 [DAG] Pass the argument list to the CallLoweringInfo via move semantics. NFCI.
The argument list vector is never used after it has been passed to the
CallLoweringInfo and moving it to the CallLoweringInfo is cleaner and
pretty much as cheap as keeping a pointer to it.

2559070422 Introduce a string_ostream string builder facilty
string_ostream is a safe and efficient string builder that combines opaque
stack storage with a built-in ostream interface.

small_string_ostream<bytes> additionally permits an explicit stack storage size
other than the default 128 bytes to be provided. Beyond that, storage is
transferred to the heap.

This convenient class can be used in most places an
std::string+raw_string_ostream pair or SmallString<>+raw_svector_ostream pair
would previously have been used, in order to guarantee consistent access
without byte truncation.

The patch also converts much of LLVM to use the new facility. These changes
include several probable bug fixes for truncated output, a programming error
that's no longer possible with the new interface.

102d0f3e3f SelectionDAG: Don't use MVT::Other to determine legality of ISD::SELECT_CC
The SelectionDAG bad a special case for ISD::SELECT_CC, where it would
allow targets to specify:

setOperationAction(ISD::SELECT_CC, MVT::Other, Expand);

to indicate that they wanted to expand ISD::SELECT_CC for all types.
This wasn't applied correctly everywhere, and it makes writing new
DAG patterns with ISD::SELECT_CC difficult.

2d21b25393 Allow alias to point to an arbitrary ConstantExpr.
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.
