When GlobalOpt has determined that a GlobalVariable only ever has two values,
it would convert the GlobalVariable to a boolean, and introduce SelectInsts
at every load, to choose between the two possible values. These SelectInsts
introduce overhead and other unpleasantness.
This patch makes GlobalOpt just add range metadata to loads from such
GlobalVariables instead. This enables the same main optimization (as seen in
test/Transforms/GlobalOpt/integer-bool.ll), without introducing selects.
The main downside is that it doesn't get the memory savings of shrinking such
GlobalVariables, but this is expected to be negligible.

This requires a number of steps.
1) Move value_use_iterator into the Value class as an implementation
detail
2) Change it to actually be a *Use* iterator rather than a *User*
iterator.
3) Add an adaptor which is a User iterator that always looks through the
Use to the User.
4) Wrap these in Value::use_iterator and Value::user_iterator typedefs.
5) Add the range adaptors as Value::uses() and Value::users().
6) Update *all* of the callers to correctly distinguish between whether
they wanted a use_iterator (and to explicitly dig out the User when
needed), or a user_iterator which makes the Use itself totally
opaque.
Because #6 requires churning essentially everything that walked the
Use-Def chains, I went ahead and added all of the range adaptors and
switched them to range-based loops where appropriate. Also because the
renaming requires at least churning every line of code, it didn't make
any sense to split these up into multiple commits -- all of which would
touch all of the same lies of code.
The result is still not quite optimal. The Value::use_iterator is a nice
regular iterator, but Value::user_iterator is an iterator over User*s
rather than over the User objects themselves. As a consequence, it fits
a bit awkwardly into the range-based world and it has the weird
extra-dereferencing 'operator->' that so many of our iterators have.
I think this could be fixed by providing something which transforms
a range of T&s into a range of T*s, but that *can* be separated into
another patch, and it isn't yet 100% clear whether this is the right
move.
However, this change gets us most of the benefit and cleans up
a substantial amount of code around Use and User. =]

Move the test for this class into the IR unittests as well.
This uncovers that ValueMap too is in the IR library. Ironically, the
unittest for ValueMap is useless in the Support library (honestly, so
was the ValueHandle test) and so it already lives in the IR unittests.
Mmmm, tasty layering.

I am really sorry for the noise, but the current state where some parts of the
code use TD (from the old name: TargetData) and other parts use DL makes it
hard to write a patch that changes where those variables come from and how
they are passed along.

As defined in LangRef, aliases do not have sections. However, LLVM's
GlobalAlias class inherits from GlobalValue, which means we can read and
set its section. We should probably ban that as a separate change,
since it doesn't make much sense for an alias to have a section that
differs from its aliasee.
Fixes PR18757, where the section was being lost on the global in code
from Clang like:
extern "C" {
__attribute__((used, section("CUSTOM"))) static int in_custom_section;
}

GlobalOpt's CleanupConstantGlobalUsers function uses a worklist array to manage
constant users to be visited. The pointers in this array need to be weak
handles because when we delete a constant array, we may also be holding a
pointer to one of its elements (or an element of one of its elements if we're
dealing with an array of arrays) in the worklist.

Major steps include:

2). GlobalOpt pass sets "not-address-taken" if it proves a global varirable
dosen't have its address taken.

When a linkonce_odr value that is on the dso list is not unnamed_addr
we can still look to see if anything is actually using its address. If
not, it is safe to hide it.
This patch implements that by moving GlobalStatus to Transforms/Utils
and using it in Internalize.

This makes using array_pod_sort significantly safer. The implementation relies
on function pointer casting but that should be safe as we're dealing with void*

LLVM IR doesn't currently allow atomic bool load/store operations, and the

This reverts commit r189886.
I found a corner case where this optimization is not valid:
Say we have a "linkonce_odr unnamed_addr" in two translation units:
* In TU 1 this optimization kicks in and makes it hidden.
* In TU 2 it gets const merged with a constant that is *not* unnamed_addr,
resulting in a non unnamed_addr constant with default visibility.
* The static linker rules for combining visibility them produce a hidden
symbol, which is incorrect from the point of view of the non unnamed_addr
constant.
The one place we can do this is when we know that the symbol is not used from
another TU in the same shared object, i.e., during LTO. I will move it there.

Original message:
If a constant or a function has linkonce_odr linkage and unnamed_addr, mark
hidden. Being linkonce_odr guarantees that it is available in every dso that
needs it. Being a constant/function with unnamed_addr guarantees that the
copies don't have to be merged.

The language reference says that:
"If a symbol appears in the @llvm.used list, then the compiler,
assembler, and linker are required to treat the symbol as if there is
a reference to the symbol that it cannot see"
Since even the linker cannot see the reference, we must assume that
the reference can be using the symbol table. For example, a user can add
__attribute__((used)) to a debug helper function like dump and use it from
a debugger.

We were incorrectly using compiler_used instead of compiler.used. Unfortunately
the passes using the broken name had tests also using the broken name.

Instead of a custom implementation of replaceAllUsesWith, we just call
replaceAllUsesWith and recreate llvm.used and llvm.compiler-used.
This change is particularity interesting because it makes llvm see
through what clang is doing with static used functions in extern "C"
contexts. With this change, running clang -O2 in
extern "C" {
__attribute__((used)) static void foo() {}
}
produces
@llvm.used = appending global [1 x i8*] [i8* bitcast (void ()* @foo to
i8*)], section "llvm.metadata"
define internal void @foo() #0 {
entry:
ret void

The iterator could be invalidated when it's recursively deleting a whole bunch
of constant expressions in a constant initializer.
Note: This was only reproducible if `opt' was run on a `.bc' file. If `opt' was
run on a `.ll' file, it wouldn't crash. This is why the test first pushes the
`.ll' file through `llvm-as' before feeding it to `opt'.

It's possible (e.g. after an LTO build) that an internal global may be used for
debugging purposes. If that's the case appending a '.b' to it makes it hard to
find that variable. Steal the name from the old GV before deleting it so that
they can find that variable again.
