patch brings numerous advantages to LLVM. One way to look at it
is through diffstat:
109 files changed, 3005 insertions(+), 5906 deletions(-)
Removing almost 3K lines of code is a good thing. Other advantages
include:
1. Value::getType() is a simple load that can be CSE'd, not a mutating
union-find operation.
2. Types a uniqued and never move once created, defining away PATypeHolder.
3. Structs can be "named" now, and their name is part of the identity that
uniques them. This means that the compiler doesn't merge them structurally
which makes the IR much less confusing.
4. Now that there is no way to get a cycle in a type graph without a named
struct type, "upreferences" go away.
5. Type refinement is completely gone, which should make LTO much MUCH faster
in some common cases with C++ code.
6. Types are now generally immutable, so we can use "Type *" instead
"const Type *" everywhere.
Downsides of this patch are that it removes some functions from the C API,
so people using those will have to upgrade to (not yet added) new API.
"LLVM 3.0" is the right time to do this.
There are still some cleanups pending after this, this patch is large enough
as-is.

The promotion code lost any alignment information, when hoisting loads and
stores out of the loop. This lead to incorrect aligned memory accesses. We now
use the largest alignment we can prove to be correct.

alloca that only holds a copy of a global and we're going to replace the users
of the alloca with that global, just nuke the lifetime intrinsics. Part of
PR10121.

ops.
This is a rewrite of the IV simplification algorithm used by
-disable-iv-rewrite. To avoid perturbing the default mode, I
temporarily split the driver and created SimplifyIVUsersNoRewrite. The
idea is to avoid doing opcode/pattern matching inside
IndVarSimplify. SCEV already does it. We want to optimize with the
full generality of SCEV, but optimize def-use chains top down on-demand rather
than rewriting the entire expression bottom-up. This was easy to do
for operations that SCEV can prove are identity function. So we're now
eliminating bitmasks and zero extends this way.
A result of this rewrite is that indvars -disable-iv-rewrite no longer
requires IVUsers.

In cases such as the attached test, where the case value for a switch
destination is used in a phi node that follows the destination, it
might be better to replace that value with the condition value of the
switch, so that more blocks can be folded away with
TryToSimplifyUncondBranchFromEmptyBlock because there are less
conflicts in the phi node.

type's bitwidth matches the (allocated) size of the alloca. This severely
pessimizes vector scalar replacement when the only vector type being used is
something like <3 x float> on x86 or ARM whose allocated size matches a
<4 x float>.
I hope to fix some of the flawed assumptions about allocated size throughout
scalar replacement and reenable this in most cases.

for pre-2.9 bitcode files. We keep x86 unaligned loads, movnt, crc32, and the
target indep prefetch change.
As usual, updating the testsuite is a PITA.

might overflow. Re-typing the alloca to a larger type (e.g. double)
hoists a shift into the alloca, potentially exposing overflow in the
expression. rdar://problem/9265821

pad, separating the exception and selector calls from the new lpad. Teaching
it not to do that, or to properly adjust the CFG afterwards, is out of
scope because it would require the other edges to the landing pad to be split
as well (effectively). Instead, just recover from the most likely cases
during inlining. The best long-term solution is to change the exception
representation and commit to either requiring or not requiring the more
complex edge-splitting logic; this is just a shorter-term hack.

former was using the size of the entire alloca, whereas the latter was correctly using
the allocated size of the immediate type being converted (which may differ from the size
of the alloca). This fixes PR10082.

then we don't want to set the destination in the indirect branch to the
destination. This is because the indirect branch needs its destinations to have
had their block addresses taken. This isn't so of the new critical edge that's
split during this process. If it turns out that the destination block has only
one predecessor, and that being a BB with an indirect branch, then it won't be
marked as 'used' and may be removed.
