We already mention that `noalias` is modeled after the C99 `restrict`
qualifier but we did omit one important requirement in the description.
For the restrict guarantees the object affected has to be modified
during the execution of the function, in any way (see 6.7.3.1.4 in [0]).
There are two reasons we want this restriction as well:
1) To match the `restrict` semantics when we lower it to `noalias`.
2) To allow the reasoning that the object pointed to by a `noalias`
pointer is not modified through means not derived from this
pointer. Hence, following the uses of that pointer is sufficient
to determine potential modifications.
The discussion on this came up as part of D73428. In that patch the
Attributor is taught to derive `noalias` for call site arguments based
on alias queries against objects that are accessed in the callee. This
is possible even if the pointer passed at the call site was "not-`noalias`".
To simplify the logic there *and* to allow the use of `noalias` as
described in 2) above, it is beneficial to follow the C `restrict`
semantics in cases where there might be "read-read-aliases". Note that
AliasAnalysis* queries for read only objects already result in
`NoAlias` even if the pointers might "alias".
* From this point of view our Alias Analysis is basically a Dependence
Analysis.

Summary:
This patch clarifies the semantics of branching on undef value.
Defining `br undef` as undefined behavior explains optimizations that use branch conditions, such as CVP (D76931) and GVN (propagateEquality).
For `switch cond`, it is defined to raise UB if cond is an expression containing undef && cond is not frozen &&
it may yield different values.
This allows that at the destination block the branch condition can be assumed to be frozen already (otherwise UB was already triggered).
This condition is slightly stricter than MemorySanitizer, which allows undef-y condition if it always leads to the same destination,
but it does not break MemorySanitizer because we are giving stricter constraint.

Summary:
Terminators in LLVM aren't prohibited from returning values. This means that
the "callbr" instruction, which is used for "asm goto", can support "asm goto
with outputs."
This patch removes all restrictions against "callbr" returning values. The
heavy lifting is done by the code generator. The "INLINEASM_BR" instruction's
a terminator, and the code generator doesn't allow non-terminator instructions
after a terminator. In order to correctly model the feature, we need to copy
outputs from "INLINEASM_BR" into virtual registers. Of course, those copies
aren't terminators.
To get around this issue, we split the block containing the "INLINEASM_BR"
right before the "COPY" instructions. This results in two cheats:
- Any physical registers defined by "INLINEASM_BR" need to be marked as
live-in into the block with the "COPY" instructions. This violates an
assumption that physical registers aren't marked as "live-in" until after
register allocation. But it seems as if the live-in information only
needs to be correct after register allocation. So we're able to get away
with this.
- The indirect branches from the "INLINEASM_BR" are moved to the "COPY"
block. This is to satisfy PHI nodes.
I've been told that MLIR can support this handily, but until we're able to
use it, we'll have to stick with the above.

In LLVM IR, vscale can be represented with an intrinsic. For some targets,
this is equivalent to the constexpr:
getelementptr <vscale x 1 x i8>, <vscale x 1 x i8>* null, i32 1
This can be used to propagate the value in CodeGenPrepare.
In ISel we add a node that can be legalized to one or more
instructions to materialize the runtime vector length.
This patch also adds SVE CodeGen support for VSCALE, which maps this
node to RDVL instructions (for scaled multiples of 16bytes) or CNT[HSD]
instructions (scaled multiples of 2, 4, or 8 bytes, respectively).

Currently there are 4 different mechanisms for controlling denormal
flushing behavior, and about as many equivalent frontend controls.
- AMDGPU uses the fp32-denormals and fp64-f16-denormals subtarget features
- NVPTX uses the nvptx-f32ftz attribute
- ARM directly uses the denormal-fp-math attribute
- Other targets indirectly use denormal-fp-math in one DAGCombine
- cl-denorms-are-zero has a corresponding denorms-are-zero attribute
AMDGPU wants a distinct control for f32 flushing from f16/f64, and as
far as I can tell the same is true for NVPTX (based on the attribute
name).
Work on consolidating these into the denormal-fp-math attribute, and a
new type specific denormal-fp-math-f32 variant. Only ARM seems to
support the two different flush modes, so this is overkill for the
other use cases. Ideally we would error on the unsupported
positive-zero mode on other targets from somewhere.
Move the logic for selecting the flush mode into the compiler driver,
instead of handling it in cc1. denormal-fp-math/denormal-fp-math-f32
are now both cc1 flags, but denormal-fp-math-f32 is not yet exposed as
a user flag.
-cl-denorms-are-zero, -fcuda-flush-denormals-to-zero and
-fno-cuda-flush-denormals-to-zero will be mapped to
-fp-denormal-math-f32=ieee or preserve-sign rather than the old
attributes.
Stop emitting the denorms-are-zero attribute for the OpenCL flag. It
has no in-tree users. The meaning would also be target dependent, such
as the AMDGPU choice to treat this as only meaning allow flushing of
f32 and not f16 or f64. The naming is also potentially confusing,
since DAZ in other contexts refers to instructions implicitly treating
input denormals as zero, not necessarily flushing output denormals to
zero.
This also does not attempt to change the behavior for the current
attribute. The LangRef now states that the default is ieee behavior,
but this is inaccurate for the current implementation. The clang
handling is slightly hacky to avoid touching the existing
denormal-fp-math uses. Fixing this will be left for a future patch.
AMDGPU is still using the subtarget feature to control the denormal
mode, but the new attribute are now emitted. A future change will
switch this and remove the subtarget features.

This is the first patch adding an initial set of matrix intrinsics and a
corresponding lowering pass. This has been discussed on llvm-dev:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2019-October/136240.html
The first patch introduces four new intrinsics (transpose, multiply,
columnwise load and store) and a LowerMatrixIntrinsics pass, that
lowers those intrinsics to vector operations.
Matrixes are embedded in a 'flat' vector (e.g. a 4 x 4 float matrix
embedded in a <16 x float> vector) and the intrinsics take the dimension
information as parameters. Those parameters need to be ConstantInt.
For the memory layout, we initially assume column-major, but in the RFC
we also described how to extend the intrinsics to support row-major as
well.
For the initial lowering, we split the input of the intrinsics into a
set of column vectors, transform those column vectors and concatenate
the result columns to a flat result vector.
This allows us to lower the intrinsics without any shape propagation, as
mentioned in the RFC. In follow-up patches, we plan to submit the
following improvements:
* Shape propagation to eliminate the embedding/splitting for each
intrinsic.
* Fused & tiled lowering of multiply and other operations.
* Optimization remarks highlighting matrix expressions and costs.
* Generate loops for operations on large matrixes.
* More general block processing for operation on large vectors,
exploiting shape information.
We would like to add dedicated transpose, columnwise load and store
intrinsics, even though they are not strictly necessary. For example, we
could instead emit a large shufflevector instruction instead of the
transpose. But we expect that to
(1) become unwieldy for larger matrixes (even for 16x16 matrixes,
the resulting shufflevector masks would be huge),
(2) risk instcombine making small changes, causing us to fail to
detect the transpose, preventing better lowerings
For the load/store, we are additionally planning on exploiting the
intrinsics for better alias analysis.

This adds support for constrained floating-point comparison intrinsics.
Specifically, we add:
declare <ty2>
@llvm.experimental.constrained.fcmp(<type> <op1>, <type> <op2>,
metadata <condition code>,
metadata <exception behavior>)
declare <ty2>
@llvm.experimental.constrained.fcmps(<type> <op1>, <type> <op2>,
metadata <condition code>,
metadata <exception behavior>)
The first variant implements an IEEE "quiet" comparison (i.e. we only
get an invalid FP exception if either argument is a SNaN), while the
second variant implements an IEEE "signaling" comparison (i.e. we get
an invalid FP exception if either argument is any NaN).
The condition code is implemented as a metadata string. The same set
of predicates as for the fcmp instruction is supported (except for the
"true" and "false" predicates).
These new intrinsics are mapped by SelectionDAG codegen onto two new
ISD opcodes, ISD::STRICT_FSETCC and ISD::STRICT_FSETCCS, again
representing quiet vs. signaling comparison operations. Otherwise
those nodes look like SETCC nodes, with an additional chain argument
and result as usual for strict FP nodes. The patch includes support
for the common legalization operations for those nodes.
The patch also includes full SystemZ back-end support for the new
ISD nodes, mapping them to all available SystemZ instruction to
fully implement strict semantics (scalar and vector).
