[PM/AA] Rebuild LLVM's alias analysis infrastructure in a way compatible with the new pass manager, and no longer relying on analysis groups. This builds essentially a ground-up new AA infrastructure stack for LLVM. The core ideas are the same that are used throughout the new pass manager: type erased polymorphism and direct composition. The design is as follows: - FunctionAAResults is a type-erasing alias analysis results aggregation interface to walk a single query across a range of results from different alias analyses. Currently this is function-specific as we always assume that aliasing queries are *within* a function. - AAResultBase is a CRTP utility providing stub implementations of various parts of the alias analysis result concept, notably in several cases in terms of other more general parts of the interface. This can be used to implement only a narrow part of the interface rather than the entire interface. This isn't really ideal, this logic should be hoisted into FunctionAAResults as currently it will cause a significant amount of redundant work, but it faithfully models the behavior of the prior infrastructure. - All the alias analysis passes are ported to be wrapper passes for the legacy PM and new-style analysis passes for the new PM with a shared result object. In some cases (most notably CFL), this is an extremely naive approach that we should revisit when we can specialize for the new pass manager. - BasicAA has been restructured to reflect that it is much more fundamentally a function analysis because it uses dominator trees and loop info that need to be constructed for each function. All of the references to getting alias analysis results have been updated to use the new aggregation interface. All the preservation and other pass management code has been updated accordingly. The way the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass works is to detect the available alias analyses when run, and add them to the results object. This means that we should be able to continue to respect when various passes are added to the pipeline, for example adding CFL or adding TBAA passes should just cause their results to be available and to get folded into this. The exception to this rule is BasicAA which really needs to be a function pass due to using dominator trees and loop info. As a consequence, the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass directly depends on BasicAA and always includes it in the aggregation. This has significant implications for preserving analyses. Generally, most passes shouldn't bother preserving FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass because rebuilding the results just updates the set of known AA passes. The exception to this rule are LoopPass instances which need to preserve all the function analyses that the loop pass manager will end up needing. This means preserving both BasicAAWrapperPass and the aggregating FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass. Now, when preserving an alias analysis, you do so by directly preserving that analysis. This is only necessary for non-immutable-pass-provided alias analyses though, and there are only three of interest: BasicAA, GlobalsAA (formerly GlobalsModRef), and SCEVAA. Usually BasicAA is preserved when needed because it (like DominatorTree and LoopInfo) is marked as a CFG-only pass. I've expanded GlobalsAA into the preserved set everywhere we previously were preserving all of AliasAnalysis, and I've added SCEVAA in the intersection of that with where we preserve SCEV itself. One significant challenge to all of this is that the CGSCC passes were actually using the alias analysis implementations by taking advantage of a pretty amazing set of loop holes in the old pass manager's analysis management code which allowed analysis groups to slide through in many cases. Moving away from analysis groups makes this problem much more obvious. To fix it, I've leveraged the flexibility the design of the new PM components provides to just directly construct the relevant alias analyses for the relevant functions in the IPO passes that need them. This is a bit hacky, but should go away with the new pass manager, and is already in many ways cleaner than the prior state. Another significant challenge is that various facilities of the old alias analysis infrastructure just don't fit any more. The most significant of these is the alias analysis 'counter' pass. That pass relied on the ability to snoop on AA queries at different points in the analysis group chain. Instead, I'm planning to build printing functionality directly into the aggregation layer. I've not included that in this patch merely to keep it smaller. Note that all of this needs a nearly complete rewrite of the AA documentation. I'm planning to do that, but I'd like to make sure the new design settles, and to flesh out a bit more of what it looks like in the new pass manager first.

const DataLayout &DL;
[AA] Hoist the logic to reformulate various AA queries in terms of other parts of the AA interface out of the base class of every single AA result object. Because this logic reformulates the query in terms of some other aspect of the API, it would easily cause O(n^2) query patterns in alias analysis. These could in turn be magnified further based on the number of call arguments, and then further based on the number of AA queries made for a particular call. This ended up causing problems for Rust that were actually noticable enough to get a bug (PR26564) and probably other places as well. When originally re-working the AA infrastructure, the desire was to regularize the pattern of refinement without losing any generality. While I think it was successful, that is clearly proving to be too costly. And the cost is needless: we gain no actual improvement for this generality of making a direct query to tbaa actually be able to re-use some other alias analysis's refinement logic for one of the other APIs, or some such. In short, this is entirely wasted work. To the extent possible, delegation to other API surfaces should be done at the aggregation layer so that we can avoid re-walking the aggregation. In fact, this significantly simplifies the logic as we no longer need to smuggle the aggregation layer into each alias analysis (or the TargetLibraryInfo into each alias analysis just so we can form argument memory locations!). However, we also have some delegation logic inside of BasicAA and some of it even makes sense. When the delegation logic is baking in specific knowledge of aliasing properties of the LLVM IR, as opposed to simply reformulating the query to utilize a different alias analysis interface entry point, it makes a lot of sense to restrict that logic to a different layer such as BasicAA. So one aspect of the delegation that was in every AA base class is that when we don't have operand bundles, we re-use function AA results as a fallback for callsite alias results. This relies on the IR properties of calls and functions w.r.t. aliasing, and so seems a better fit to BasicAA. I've lifted the logic up to that point where it seems to be a natural fit. This still does a bit of redundant work (we query function attributes twice, once via the callsite and once via the function AA query) but it is *exactly* twice here, no more. The end result is that all of the delegation logic is hoisted out of the base class and into either the aggregation layer when it is a pure retargeting to a different API surface, or into BasicAA when it relies on the IR's aliasing properties. This should fix the quadratic query pattern reported in PR26564, although I don't have a stand-alone test case to reproduce it. It also seems general goodness. Now the numerous AAs that don't need target library info don't carry it around and depend on it. I think I can even rip out the general access to the aggregation layer and only expose that in BasicAA as it is the only place where we re-query in that manner. However, this is a non-trivial change to the AA infrastructure so I want to get some additional eyes on this before it lands. Sadly, it can't wait long because we should really cherry pick this into 3.8 if we're going to go this route. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D17329 llvm-svn: 262490

In some cases (most notably CFL), this is an extremely naive approach that we should revisit when we can specialize for the new pass manager. - BasicAA has been restructured to reflect that it is much more fundamentally a function analysis because it uses dominator trees and loop info that need to be constructed for each function. All of the references to getting alias analysis results have been updated to use the new aggregation interface. All the preservation and other pass management code has been updated accordingly. The way the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass works is to detect the available alias analyses when run, and add them to the results object. This means that we should be able to continue to respect when various passes are added to the pipeline, for example adding CFL or adding TBAA passes should just cause their results to be available and to get folded into this. The exception to this rule is BasicAA which really needs to be a function pass due to using dominator trees and loop info. As a consequence, the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass directly depends on BasicAA and always includes it in the aggregation. This has significant implications for preserving analyses. Generally, most passes shouldn't bother preserving FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass because rebuilding the results just updates the set of known AA passes. The exception to this rule are LoopPass instances which need to preserve all the function analyses that the loop pass manager will end up needing. This means preserving both BasicAAWrapperPass and the aggregating FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass. Now, when preserving an alias analysis, you do so by directly preserving that analysis. This is only necessary for non-immutable-pass-provided alias analyses though, and there are only three of interest: BasicAA, GlobalsAA (formerly GlobalsModRef), and SCEVAA. Usually BasicAA is preserved when needed because it (like DominatorTree and LoopInfo) is marked as a CFG-only pass. I've expanded GlobalsAA into the preserved set everywhere we previously were preserving all of AliasAnalysis, and I've added SCEVAA in the intersection of that with where we preserve SCEV itself. One significant challenge to all of this is that the CGSCC passes were actually using the alias analysis implementations by taking advantage of a pretty amazing set of loop holes in the old pass manager's analysis management code which allowed analysis groups to slide through in many cases. Moving away from analysis groups makes this problem much more obvious. To fix it, I've leveraged the flexibility the design of the new PM components provides to just directly construct the relevant alias analyses for the relevant functions in the IPO passes that need them. This is a bit hacky, but should go away with the new pass manager, and is already in many ways cleaner than the prior state. Another significant challenge is that various facilities of the old alias analysis infrastructure just don't fit any more. The most significant of these is the alias analysis 'counter' pass. That pass relied on the ability to snoop on AA queries at different points in the analysis group chain. Instead, I'm planning to build printing functionality directly into the aggregation layer. I've not included that in this patch merely to keep it smaller. Note that all of this needs a nearly complete rewrite of the AA documentation. I'm planning to do that, but I'd like to make sure the new design settles, and to flesh out a bit more of what it looks like in the new pass manager first.

[PM/AA] Rebuild LLVM's alias analysis infrastructure in a way compatible with the new pass manager, and no longer relying on analysis groups.

[AA] Hoist the logic to reformulate various AA queries in terms of other parts of the AA interface out of the base class of every single AA result object. Because this logic reformulates the query in terms of some other aspect of the API, it would easily cause O(n^2) query patterns in alias analysis. These could in turn be magnified further based on the number of call arguments, and then further based on the number of AA queries made for a particular call. This ended up causing problems for Rust that were actually noticable enough to get a bug (PR26564) and probably other places as well. When originally re-working the AA infrastructure, the desire was to regularize the pattern of refinement without losing any generality. While I think it was successful, that is clearly proving to be too costly. And the cost is needless: we gain no actual improvement for this generality of making a direct query to tbaa actually be able to re-use some other alias analysis's refinement logic for one of the other APIs, or some such. In short, this is entirely wasted work. To the extent possible, delegation to other API surfaces should be done at the aggregation layer so that we can avoid re-walking the aggregation. In fact, this significantly simplifies the logic as we no longer need to smuggle the aggregation layer into each alias analysis (or the TargetLibraryInfo into each alias analysis just so we can form argument memory locations!). However, we also have some delegation logic inside of BasicAA and some of it even makes sense. When the delegation logic is baking in specific knowledge of aliasing properties of the LLVM IR, as opposed to simply reformulating the query to utilize a different alias analysis interface entry point, it makes a lot of sense to restrict that logic to a different layer such as BasicAA. So one aspect of the delegation that was in every AA base class is that when we don't have operand bundles, we re-use function AA results as a fallback for callsite alias results. This relies on the IR properties of calls and functions w.r.t. aliasing, and so seems a better fit to BasicAA. I've lifted the logic up to that point where it seems to be a natural fit. This still does a bit of redundant work (we query function attributes twice, once via the callsite and once via the function AA query) but it is *exactly* twice here, no more. The end result is that all of the delegation logic is hoisted out of the base class and into either the aggregation layer when it is a pure retargeting to a different API surface, or into BasicAA when it relies on the IR's aliasing properties. This should fix the quadratic query pattern reported in PR26564, although I don't have a stand-alone test case to reproduce it. It also seems general goodness. Now the numerous AAs that don't need target library info don't carry it around and depend on it. I think I can even rip out the general access to the aggregation layer and only expose that in BasicAA as it is the only place where we re-query in that manner. However, this is a non-trivial change to the AA infrastructure so I want to get some additional eyes on this before it lands. Sadly, it can't wait long because we should really cherry pick this into 3.8 if we're going to go this route. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D17329 llvm-svn: 262490

This builds essentially a ground-up new AA infrastructure stack for LLVM. The core ideas are the same that are used throughout the new pass manager: type erased polymorphism and direct composition. The design is as follows: - FunctionAAResults is a type-erasing alias analysis results aggregation interface to walk a single query across a range of results from different alias analyses. Currently this is function-specific as we always assume that aliasing queries are *within* a function. - AAResultBase is a CRTP utility providing stub implementations of various parts of the alias analysis result concept, notably in several cases in terms of other more general parts of the interface. This can be used to implement only a narrow part of the interface rather than the entire interface. This isn't really ideal, this logic should be hoisted into FunctionAAResults as currently it will cause a significant amount of redundant work, but it faithfully models the behavior of the prior infrastructure. - All the alias analysis passes are ported to be wrapper passes for the legacy PM and new-style analysis passes for the new PM with a shared result object. In some cases (most notably CFL), this is an extremely naive approach that we should revisit when we can specialize for the new pass manager. - BasicAA has been restructured to reflect that it is much more fundamentally a function analysis because it uses dominator trees and loop info that need to be constructed for each function. All of the references to getting alias analysis results have been updated to use the new aggregation interface. All the preservation and other pass management code has been updated accordingly. The way the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass works is to detect the available alias analyses when run, and add them to the results object. This means that we should be able to continue to respect when various passes are added to the pipeline, for example adding CFL or adding TBAA passes should just cause their results to be available and to get folded into this. The exception to this rule is BasicAA which really needs to be a function pass due to using dominator trees and loop info. As a consequence, the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass directly depends on BasicAA and always includes it in the aggregation. This has significant implications for preserving analyses. Generally, most passes shouldn't bother preserving FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass because rebuilding the results just updates the set of known AA passes. The exception to this rule are LoopPass instances which need to preserve all the function analyses that the loop pass manager will end up needing. This means preserving both BasicAAWrapperPass and the aggregating FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass. Now, when preserving an alias analysis, you do so by directly preserving that analysis. This is only necessary for non-immutable-pass-provided alias analyses though, and there are only three of interest: BasicAA, GlobalsAA (formerly GlobalsModRef), and SCEVAA. Usually BasicAA is preserved when needed because it (like DominatorTree and LoopInfo) is marked as a CFG-only pass. I've expanded GlobalsAA into the preserved set everywhere we previously were preserving all of AliasAnalysis, and I've added SCEVAA in the intersection of that with where we preserve SCEV itself. One significant challenge to all of this is that the CGSCC passes were actually using the alias analysis implementations by taking advantage of a pretty amazing set of loop holes in the old pass manager's analysis management code which allowed analysis groups to slide through in many cases. Moving away from analysis groups makes this problem much more obvious. To fix it, I've leveraged the flexibility the design of the new PM components provides to just directly construct the relevant alias analyses for the relevant functions in the IPO passes that need them. This is a bit hacky, but should go away with the new pass manager, and is already in many ways cleaner than the prior state. Another significant challenge is that various facilities of the old alias analysis infrastructure just don't fit any more. The most significant of these is the alias analysis 'counter' pass. That pass relied on the ability to snoop on AA queries at different points in the analysis group chain. Instead, I'm planning to build printing functionality directly into the aggregation layer. I've not included that in this patch merely to keep it smaller. Note that all of this needs a nearly complete rewrite of the AA documentation. I'm planning to do that, but I'd like to make sure the new design settles, and to flesh out a bit more of what it looks like in the new pass manager first.

[BasicAA] Fix the handling of sext and zext in the analysis of GEPs. Hopefully this will end the GEPs saga! This commit reverts r245394, i.e., it reapplies r221876 while incorporating the fixes from D11847. r221876 was not reapplied alone because it was not safe and D11847 was not applied alone because it needs r221876 to produce correct results. This should fix PR24596. Original commit message for r221876: Let's try this again... This reverts r219432, plus a bug fix. Description of the bug in r219432 (by Nick): The bug was using AllPositive to break out of the loop; if the loop break condition i != e is changed to i != e && AllPositive then the test_modulo_analysis_with_global test I've added will fail as the Modulo will be calculated incorrectly (as the last loop iteration is skipped, so Modulo isn't updated with its Scale). Nick also adds this comment: ComputeSignBit is safe to use in loops as it takes into account phi nodes, and the == EK_ZeroEx check is safe in loops as, no matter how the variable changes between iterations, zero-extensions will always guarantee a zero sign bit. The isValueEqualInPotentialCycles check is therefore definitely not needed as all the variable analysis holds no matter how the variables change between loop iterations. And this patch also adds another enhancement to GetLinearExpression - basically to convert ConstantInts to Offsets (see test_const_eval and test_const_eval_scaled for the situations this improves). Original commit message: This reverts r218944, which reverted r218714, plus a bug fix. Description of the bug in r218714 (by Nick): The original patch forgot to check if the Scale in VariableGEPIndex flipped the sign of the variable. The BasicAA pass iterates over the instructions in the order they appear in the function, and so BasicAliasAnalysis::aliasGEP is called with the variable it first comes across as parameter GEP1. Adding a %reorder label puts the definition of %a after %b so aliasGEP is called with %b as the first parameter and %a as the second. aliasGEP later calculates that %a == %b + 1 - %idxprom where %idxprom >= 0 (if %a was passed as the first parameter it would calculate %b == %a - 1 + %idxprom where %idxprom >= 0) - ignoring that %idxprom is scaled by -1 here lead the patch to incorrectly conclude that %a > %b. Revised patch by Nick White, thanks! Thanks to Lang to isolating the bug. Slightly modified by me to add an early exit from the loop and avoid unnecessary, but expensive, function calls. Original commit message: Two related things: 1. Fixes a bug when calculating the offset in GetLinearExpression. The code previously used zext to extend the offset, so negative offsets were converted to large positive ones. 2. Enhance aliasGEP to deduce that, if the difference between two GEP allocations is positive and all the variables that govern the offset are also positive (i.e. the offset is strictly after the higher base pointer), then locations that fit in the gap between the two base pointers are NoAlias. Patch by Nick White! Message from D11847: Un-revert of r241981 and fix for PR23626. The 'Or' case of GetLinearExpression delegates to 'Add' if possible, and if not it returns an Opaque value. Unfortunately the Scale and Offsets weren't being set (and so defaulted to 0) - and a scale of zero effectively removes the variable from the GEP instruction. This meant that BasicAA would return MustAliases when it should have been returning PartialAliases (and PR23626 was an example of the GVN pass using an incorrect MustAlias to merge loads from what should have been different pointers).

Description of the bug in r219432 (by Nick): The bug was using AllPositive to break out of the loop; if the loop break condition i != e is changed to i != e && AllPositive then the test_modulo_analysis_with_global test I've added will fail as the Modulo will be calculated incorrectly (as the last loop iteration is skipped, so Modulo isn't updated with its Scale). Nick also adds this comment: ComputeSignBit is safe to use in loops as it takes into account phi nodes, and the == EK_ZeroEx check is safe in loops as, no matter how the variable changes between iterations, zero-extensions will always guarantee a zero sign bit. The isValueEqualInPotentialCycles check is therefore definitely not needed as all the variable analysis holds no matter how the variables change between loop iterations. And this patch also adds another enhancement to GetLinearExpression - basically to convert ConstantInts to Offsets (see test_const_eval and test_const_eval_scaled for the situations this improves). Original commit message: This reverts r218944, which reverted r218714, plus a bug fix. Description of the bug in r218714 (by Nick): The original patch forgot to check if the Scale in VariableGEPIndex flipped the sign of the variable. The BasicAA pass iterates over the instructions in the order they appear in the function, and so BasicAliasAnalysis::aliasGEP is called with the variable it first comes across as parameter GEP1. Adding a %reorder label puts the definition of %a after %b so aliasGEP is called with %b as the first parameter and %a as the second. aliasGEP later calculates that %a == %b + 1 - %idxprom where %idxprom >= 0 (if %a was passed as the first parameter it would calculate %b == %a - 1 + %idxprom where %idxprom >= 0) - ignoring that %idxprom is scaled by -1 here lead the patch to incorrectly conclude that %a > %b. Revised patch by Nick White, thanks! Thanks to Lang to isolating the bug. Slightly modified by me to add an early exit from the loop and avoid unnecessary, but expensive, function calls. Original commit message: Two related things: 1. Fixes a bug when calculating the offset in GetLinearExpression. The code previously used zext to extend the offset, so negative offsets were converted to large positive ones. 2. Enhance aliasGEP to deduce that, if the difference between two GEP allocations is positive and all the variables that govern the offset are also positive (i.e. the offset is strictly after the higher base pointer), then locations that fit in the gap between the two base pointers are NoAlias. Patch by Nick White! Message from D11847: Un-revert of r241981 and fix for PR23626. The 'Or' case of GetLinearExpression delegates to 'Add' if possible, and if not it returns an Opaque value. Unfortunately the Scale and Offsets weren't being set (and so defaulted to 0) - and a scale of zero effectively removes the variable from the GEP instruction. This meant that BasicAA would return MustAliases when it should have been returning PartialAliases (and PR23626 was an example of the GVN pass using an incorrect MustAlias to merge loads from what should have been different pointers).

[PM/AA] Rebuild LLVM's alias analysis infrastructure in a way compatible with the new pass manager, and no longer relying on analysis groups. This builds essentially a ground-up new AA infrastructure stack for LLVM. The core ideas are the same that are used throughout the new pass manager: type erased polymorphism and direct composition. The design is as follows: - FunctionAAResults is a type-erasing alias analysis results aggregation interface to walk a single query across a range of results from different alias analyses. Currently this is function-specific as we always assume that aliasing queries are *within* a function. - AAResultBase is a CRTP utility providing stub implementations of various parts of the alias analysis result concept, notably in several cases in terms of other more general parts of the interface. This can be used to implement only a narrow part of the interface rather than the entire interface. This isn't really ideal, this logic should be hoisted into FunctionAAResults as currently it will cause a significant amount of redundant work, but it faithfully models the behavior of the prior infrastructure. - All the alias analysis passes are ported to be wrapper passes for the legacy PM and new-style analysis passes for the new PM with a shared result object. In some cases (most notably CFL), this is an extremely naive approach that we should revisit when we can specialize for the new pass manager. - BasicAA has been restructured to reflect that it is much more fundamentally a function analysis because it uses dominator trees and loop info that need to be constructed for each function. All of the references to getting alias analysis results have been updated to use the new aggregation interface. All the preservation and other pass management code has been updated accordingly. The way the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass works is to detect the available alias analyses when run, and add them to the results object. This means that we should be able to continue to respect when various passes are added to the pipeline, for example adding CFL or adding TBAA passes should just cause their results to be available and to get folded into this. The exception to this rule is BasicAA which really needs to be a function pass due to using dominator trees and loop info. As a consequence, the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass directly depends on BasicAA and always includes it in the aggregation. This has significant implications for preserving analyses. Generally, most passes shouldn't bother preserving FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass because rebuilding the results just updates the set of known AA passes. The exception to this rule are LoopPass instances which need to preserve all the function analyses that the loop pass manager will end up needing. This means preserving both BasicAAWrapperPass and the aggregating FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass. Now, when preserving an alias analysis, you do so by directly preserving that analysis. This is only necessary for non-immutable-pass-provided alias analyses though, and there are only three of interest: BasicAA, GlobalsAA (formerly GlobalsModRef), and SCEVAA. Usually BasicAA is preserved when needed because it (like DominatorTree and LoopInfo) is marked as a CFG-only pass. I've expanded GlobalsAA into the preserved set everywhere we previously were preserving all of AliasAnalysis, and I've added SCEVAA in the intersection of that with where we preserve SCEV itself. One significant challenge to all of this is that the CGSCC passes were actually using the alias analysis implementations by taking advantage of a pretty amazing set of loop holes in the old pass manager's analysis management code which allowed analysis groups to slide through in many cases. Moving away from analysis groups makes this problem much more obvious. To fix it, I've leveraged the flexibility the design of the new PM components provides to just directly construct the relevant alias analyses for the relevant functions in the IPO passes that need them. This is a bit hacky, but should go away with the new pass manager, and is already in many ways cleaner than the prior state. Another significant challenge is that various facilities of the old alias analysis infrastructure just don't fit any more. The most significant of these is the alias analysis 'counter' pass. That pass relied on the ability to snoop on AA queries at different points in the analysis group chain. Instead, I'm planning to build printing functionality directly into the aggregation layer. I've not included that in this patch merely to keep it smaller. Note that all of this needs a nearly complete rewrite of the AA documentation. I'm planning to do that, but I'd like to make sure the new design settles, and to flesh out a bit more of what it looks like in the new pass manager first.

[PM] Change the static object whose address is used to uniquely identify analyses to have a common type which is enforced rather than using a char object and a `void *` type when used as an identifier. This has a number of advantages. First, it at least helps some of the confusion raised in Justin Lebar's code review of why `void *` was being used everywhere by having a stronger type that connects to documentation about this. However, perhaps more importantly, it addresses a serious issue where the alignment of these pointer-like identifiers was unknown. This made it hard to use them in pointer-like data structures. We were already dodging this in dangerous ways to create the "all analyses" entry. In a subsequent patch I attempted to use these with TinyPtrVector and things fell apart in a very bad way. And it isn't just a compile time or type system issue. Worse than that, the actual alignment of these pointer-like opaque identifiers wasn't guaranteed to be a useful alignment as they were just characters. This change introduces a type to use as the "key" object whose address forms the opaque identifier. This both forces the objects to have proper alignment, and provides type checking that we get it right everywhere. It also makes the types somewhat less mysterious than `void *`. We could go one step further and introduce a truly opaque pointer-like type to return from the `ID()` static function rather than returning `AnalysisKey *`, but that didn't seem to be a clear win so this is just the initial change to get to a reliably typed and aligned object serving is a key for all the analyses. Thanks to Richard Smith and Justin Lebar for helping pick plausible names and avoid making this refactoring many times. =] And thanks to Sean for the super fast review! While here, I've tried to move away from the "PassID" nomenclature entirely as it wasn't really helping and is overloaded with old pass manager constructs. Now we have IDs for analyses, and key objects whose address can be used as IDs. Where possible and clear I've shortened this to just "ID". In a few places I kept "AnalysisID" to make it clear what was being identified. Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D27031 llvm-svn: 287783

The exception to this rule are LoopPass instances which need to preserve all the function analyses that the loop pass manager will end up needing. This means preserving both BasicAAWrapperPass and the aggregating FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass. Now, when preserving an alias analysis, you do so by directly preserving that analysis. This is only necessary for non-immutable-pass-provided alias analyses though, and there are only three of interest: BasicAA, GlobalsAA (formerly GlobalsModRef), and SCEVAA. Usually BasicAA is preserved when needed because it (like DominatorTree and LoopInfo) is marked as a CFG-only pass. I've expanded GlobalsAA into the preserved set everywhere we previously were preserving all of AliasAnalysis, and I've added SCEVAA in the intersection of that with where we preserve SCEV itself. One significant challenge to all of this is that the CGSCC passes were actually using the alias analysis implementations by taking advantage of a pretty amazing set of loop holes in the old pass manager's analysis management code which allowed analysis groups to slide through in many cases. Moving away from analysis groups makes this problem much more obvious. To fix it, I've leveraged the flexibility the design of the new PM components provides to just directly construct the relevant alias analyses for the relevant functions in the IPO passes that need them. This is a bit hacky, but should go away with the new pass manager, and is already in many ways cleaner than the prior state. Another significant challenge is that various facilities of the old alias analysis infrastructure just don't fit any more. The most significant of these is the alias analysis 'counter' pass. That pass relied on the ability to snoop on AA queries at different points in the analysis group chain. Instead, I'm planning to build printing functionality directly into the aggregation layer. I've not included that in this patch merely to keep it smaller. Note that all of this needs a nearly complete rewrite of the AA documentation. I'm planning to do that, but I'd like to make sure the new design settles, and to flesh out a bit more of what it looks like in the new pass manager first.
