Gordon Henriksen fc3282221f CollectorMetadata abstractly describes stack maps for a function.
It includes:

 - location and of each safe point in machine code (identified by a
   label)
 - location of each root within the stack frame (identified by an
   offset), including the metadata tag provided to llvm.gcroot in
   the user program
 - size of the stack frame (for collectors which want to cheat on
   stack crawling :)
 - and eventually will include liveness

It is to be populated by back-ends during code-generation.

CollectorModuleMetadata aggregates this information across the
entire module.

//===-- CollectorMetadata.h - Garbage collector metadata ------------------===//
//
// The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
//
// This file was developed by Gordon Henriksen and is distributed under
// the University of Illinois Open Source License. See LICENSE.TXT for details.
//
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//
//
// This file declares the CollectorMetadata and CollectorModuleMetadata classes,
// which are used as a communication channel from the target code generator
// to the target garbage collector. This interface allows code generators and
// garbage collectors to be developed independently.
//
// The CollectorMetadata class records the data necessary to build a type
// accurate stack map. Roots are specified in the LLVM IR using the llvm.gcroot
// intrinsic, which the code generator understands. The code generator records
// the stack offset for each GC root. Safe points are generated by the code
// generator according to the collector's declared needs (generally at function
// calls).
//
// Safe points and roots are sufficient to build type-accurate stack maps. As a
// refinement, liveness analysis calculates the set of live roots at each safe
// point. Liveness analysis is not presently performed, so all roots are assumed
// live.
//
// CollectorModuleMetadata simply collects CollectorMetadata structures for each
// Function as it is compiled. This is necessary for collectors which must emit
// a stack map for the entire compilation unit. CollectorMetadata outlives the
// MachineFunction from which it is derived, so must not refer to any code
// generator data structures.
//
