There are places where we need to merge multiple LocationSizes of
different sizes into one, and get a sensible result.
There are other places where we want to optimize aggressively based on
the value of a LocationSizes (e.g. how can a store of four bytes be to
an area of storage that's only two bytes large?)
This patch makes LocationSize hold an 'imprecise' bit to note whether
the LocationSize can be treated as an upper-bound and lower-bound for
the size of a location, or just an upper-bound.
This concludes the series of patches leading up to this. The most recent
of which is r344108.
Fixes PR36228.

Volatility is not an aliasing property. We used to model volatile as if it had extremely conservative aliasing implications, but that hasn't been true for several years now. So, it doesn't make sense to be in AliasSet.
It also turns out the code is entirely a noop. Outside of the AST code to update it, there was only one user: load store promotion in LICM. L/S promotion doesn't need the check since it walks all the users of the address anyway. It already checks each load or store via !isUnordered which causes us to bail for volatile accesses. (Look at the lines immediately following the two remove asserts.)
There is the possibility of some small compile time impact here, but the only case which will get noticeably slower is a loop with a large number of loads and stores to the same address where only the last one we inspect is volatile. This is sufficiently rare it's not worth optimizing for..

The method AliasSetTracker::getAliasSetForPointer was removed and replaced by AliasSetTracker::getAliasSetFor for the restructuring in r339930.
Since Polly uses AliasSetTracker::getAliasSetForPointer, a temporary fix has been committed in r339937 with a comment:
Can someone from polly please migrate usage and then delete the wrapper?
This commit is doing exactly that.

Main value is just simplifying code. I'll further simply the argument handling case in a bit, but that involved a slightly orthogonal change so I went with the mildy ugly intermediate for this patch.
Note that the isSized check in the old LICM code was not carried across. It turns out that check was dead. a) no test exercised it, and b) langref and verifier had been updated to disallow unsized types used in loads.
llvm-svn: 339930
The motivating case is an otherwise dead loop with a fence in it. At the moment, this goes all the way through the optimizer and we end up emitting an entirely pointless loop on x86. This case may seem a bit contrived, but we've seen it in real code as the result of otherwise reasonable lowering strategies combined w/thread local memory optimizations (such as escape analysis).
To handle this simple case, we can teach LICM to hoist must execute fences when there is no other memory operation within the loop.

The uint64_ts that we pass around AA to represent MemoryLocation sizes
are logically an Optional<uint64_t>. In D44748, we want to add an extra
'imprecise' bit to this Optional<uint64_t> to represent whether a given
MemoryLocation size is an upper-bound or an exact size. For more context
on why, please see D44748.
That patch is quite large, but reviewers seem to be OK with the
approach. In D45581 (my first attempt to split 'noise' out of D44748),
reames asked that I land a precursor that is solely replacing uint64_t
with LocationSize, which starts out as `using LocationSize = uint64_t;`.
He also gave me the OK to submit this rename without further review.

Summary:
When we have patterns like
loop:
%la = load %ptr, !tbaa
%lba = load %ptr, !tbaa !noalias
AliasSetTracker would previously think that the two types of annotation for
the pointer conflict, dropping both for the purpose of determining alias sets.
That is clearly way too conservative, as the tbaa is still valid whether or
not one of the memory accesses has additional AA metadata. We could go
one step further and attempt to properly merge the AA metadata,
but it's not clear that that would be worth it since that may introduce
additional MD nodes, which may be undesirable since this is merely an
Analysis.

Summary:
This change solves the same problem as D30726, except that this only
throws out the bathwater.
AST was not correctly tracking and deleting UnknownInstructions via
handles. The existing code only tracks "pointers" in its
`ASTCallbackVH`, so an UnknownInstruction (that isn't also def'ing a
pointer used by another memory instruction) never gets a
`ASTCallbackVH`.
There are two other ways to solve this problem:
- Use the `PointerRec` scheme for both known and unknown instructions.
- Use a `CallbackVH` that erases the offending Instruction from the
UnknownInstruction list.
Both of the above changes seemed to be significantly (and unnecessarily
IMO) more complex than this.

Repeated inserts into AliasSetTracker have quadratic behavior - inserting a
pointer into AST is linear, since it requires walking over all "may" alias
sets and running an alias check vs. every pointer in the set.
We can avoid this by tracking the total number of pointers in "may" sets,
and when that number exceeds a threshold, declare the tracker "saturated".
This lumps all pointers into a single "may" set that aliases every other
pointer.
(This is a stop-gap solution until we migrate to MemorySSA)
This fixes PR28832.

If the size of an AST entry changes, we also need to make sure we perform
necessary alias set merges, as the new size may overlap pointers in other sets.
We happen to run into this with memset, because memset allows an entry for a
i8* pointer to have a decidedly non-i8 size.

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.

Various value handles needed to be copy constructible and copy
assignable (mostly for their use in DenseMap). But to avoid an API that
might allow accidental slicing, make these members protected in the base
class and make derived classes final (the special members become
implicitly public there - but disallowing further derived classes that
might be sliced to the intermediate type).
Might be worth having a warning a bit like -Wnon-virtual-dtor that
catches public move/copy assign/ctors in classes with virtual functions.
(suppressable in the same way - by making them protected in the base,
and making the derived classes final) Could be fancier and only diagnose
them when they're actually called, potentially.
Also allow a few default implementations where custom implementations
(especially with non-standard return types) were implemented.

accurately describe what is being tracked.
While these two enums do track mod/ref information and aliasing
information, they don't represent the exact same things as either the
mod/ref enums or the alias result enum in AA. They're definitions are
dominated by the structure of their lattice and the bit's various
semantics. This patch just calls them what they are and tries to spell
out usefully distinct names for these things.
This will clear the path for using a raw unscoped enum to represent some
of these concepts across LLVM's analysis library.
No functionality changed here.

AliasSetTracker::addUnknown may create an AliasSet devoid of pointers
just to contain an instruction if no suitable AliasSet already exists.
It will then AliasSet::addUnknownInst and we will be done.
However, it's possible for addUnknown to choose an existing AliasSet to
addUnknownInst.
If this were to occur, we are in a bit of a pickle: removing pointers
from the AliasSet can cause the entire AliasSet to become destroyed,
taking our unknown instructions out with them.
Instead, keep track whether or not our AliasSet has any unknown
instructions.
This fixes PR21582.

LoadCombine can be smarter about aborting when a writing instruction is
encountered, instead of aborting upon encountering any writing instruction, use
an AliasSetTracker, and only abort when encountering some write that might
alias with the loads that could potentially be combined.
This was originally motivated by comments made (and a test case provided) by
David Majnemer in response to PR21448. It turned out that LoadCombine was not
responsible for that PR, but LoadCombine should also be improved so that
unrelated stores (and @llvm.assume) don't interrupt load combining.

In order to enable the preservation of noalias function parameter information
after inlining, and the representation of block-level __restrict__ pointer
information (etc.), additional kinds of aliasing metadata will be introduced.
This metadata needs to be carried around in AliasAnalysis::Location objects
(and MMOs at the SDAG level), and so we need to generalize the current scheme
(which is hard-coded to just one TBAA MDNode*).
This commit introduces only the necessary refactoring to allow for the
introduction of other aliasing metadata types, but does not actually introduce
any (that will come in a follow-up commit). What it does introduce is a new
AAMDNodes structure to hold all of the aliasing metadata nodes associated with
a particular memory-accessing instruction, and uses that structure instead of
the raw MDNode* in AliasAnalysis::Location, etc.
No functionality change intended.
