GlobalOpt runs early in the pipeline (before inlining) and complex class
hierarchies often introduce bitcasts or GEPs which weren't optimized away.
Teach it to ignore side-effect free instructions instead of depending on
other passes to remove them.

* Most of the transforms come through intact by having each transformed load or
store copy the ordering and synchronization scope of the original.
* The transform that turns a global only accessed in main() into an alloca
(since main is non-recursive) with a store of the initial value uses an
unordered store, since it's guaranteed to be the first thing to happen in main.
(Threads may have started before main (!) but they can't have the address of a
function local before the point in the entry block we insert our code.)
* The heap-SRoA transforms are disabled in the face of atomic operations. This
can probably be improved; it seems odd to have atomic accesses to an alloca
that doesn't have its address taken.
AnalyzeGlobal keeps track of the strongest ordering found in any use of the
global. This is more information than we need right now, but it's cheap to
compute and likely to be useful.

logic by half: isOnlyReachableViaThisEdge was trying to be clever and
handle the case of a branch to a basic block which is contained in a
loop. This costs a domtree lookup and is completely useless due to
GVN's position in the pass pipeline: all loops have preheaders at this
point, which means it is enough for isOnlyReachableViaThisEdge to check
that Dst has only one predecessor. (I checked this theoretical argument
by running over the entire nightly testsuite, and indeed it is so!).

but with a critical fix to the SelectionDAG code that optimizes copies
from strings into immediate stores: the previous code was stopping reading
string data at the first nul. Address this by adding a new argument to
llvm::getConstantStringInfo, preserving the behavior before the patch.

By default, boost the chain depth contribution of loads and stores. This will allow a load/store pair to vectorize even when it would not otherwise be long enough to satisfy the chain depth requirement.

As suggested by Nick Lewycky, the tree traversal queues have been changed to SmallVectors and the associated loops have been rotated. Also, an 80-col violation was fixed.

Long basic blocks with many candidate pairs (such as in the SHA implementation in Perl 5.14; thanks to Roman Divacky for the example) used to take an unacceptably-long time to compile. Instead, break long blocks into groups so that no group has too many candidate pairs.

The purpose of refactoring is to hide operand roles from SwitchInst user (programmer). If you want to play with operands directly, probably you will need lower level methods than SwitchInst ones (TerminatorInst or may be User). After this patch we can reorganize SwitchInst operands and successors as we want.
What was done:
1. Changed semantics of index inside the getCaseValue method:
getCaseValue(0) means "get first case", not a condition. Use getCondition() if you want to resolve the condition. I propose don't mix SwitchInst case indexing with low level indexing (TI successors indexing, User's operands indexing), since it may be dangerous.
2. By the same reason findCaseValue(ConstantInt*) returns actual number of case value. 0 means first case, not default. If there is no case with given value, ErrorIndex will returned.
3. Added getCaseSuccessor method. I propose to avoid usage of TerminatorInst::getSuccessor if you want to resolve case successor BB. Use getCaseSuccessor instead, since internal SwitchInst organization of operands/successors is hidden and may be changed in any moment.
4. Added resolveSuccessorIndex and resolveCaseIndex. The main purpose of these methods is to see how case successors are really mapped in TerminatorInst.
4.1 "resolveSuccessorIndex" was created if you need to level down from SwitchInst to TerminatorInst. It returns TerminatorInst's successor index for given case successor.
4.2 "resolveCaseIndex" converts low level successors index to case index that curresponds to the given successor.
Note: There are also related compatability fix patches for dragonegg, klee, llvm-gcc-4.0, llvm-gcc-4.2, safecode, clang.

Changing arguments from being passed as fixed to varargs is unsafe, as
the ABI may require they be handled differently (stack vs. register, for
example).
Remove two tests which rely on the bitcast being folded into the direct
call, which is exactly the transformation that's unsafe.

Problem: LLVM needs more function attributes than currently available (32 bits).
One such proposed attribute is "address_safety", which shows that a function is being checked for address safety (by AddressSanitizer, SAFECode, etc).
Solution:
- extend the Attributes from 32 bits to 64-bits
- wrap the object into a class so that unsigned is never erroneously used instead
- change "unsigned" to "Attributes" throughout the code, including one place in clang.
- the class has no "operator uint64 ()", but it has "uint64_t Raw() " to support packing/unpacking.
- the class has "safe operator bool()" to support the common idiom: if (Attributes attr = getAttrs()) useAttrs(attr);
- The CTOR from uint64_t is marked explicit, so I had to add a few explicit CTOR calls
- Add the new attribute "address_safety". Doing it in the same commit to check that attributes beyond first 32 bits actually work.
- Some of the functions from the Attribute namespace are worth moving inside the class, but I'd prefer to have it as a separate commit.
Tested:
"make check" on Linux (32-bit and 64-bit) and Mac (10.6)
built/run spec CPU 2006 on Linux with clang -O2.
This change will break clang build in lib/CodeGen/CGCall.cpp.
The following patch will fix it.

LSR has gradually been improved to more aggressively reuse existing code, particularly existing phi cycles. This exposed problems with the SCEVExpander's sloppy treatment of its insertion point. I applied some rigor to the insertion point problem that will hopefully avoid an endless bug cycle in this area. Changes:
- Always used properlyDominates to check safe code hoisting.
- The insertion point provided to SCEV is now considered a lower bound. This is usually a block terminator or the use itself. Under no cirumstance may SCEVExpander insert below this point.
- LSR is reponsible for finding a "canonical" insertion point across expansion of different expressions.
- Robust logic to determine whether IV increments are in "expanded" form and/or can be safely hoisted above some insertion point.
Fixes PR11783: SCEVExpander assert.

It's becoming clear that LoopSimplify needs to unconditionally create loop preheaders. But that is a bigger fix. For now, continuing to hack LSR.

1. Size heuristics changed. Now we calculate number of unswitching
branches only once per loop.
2. Some checks was moved from UnswitchIfProfitable to

with other symbols.
An object in the __cfstring section is suppoed to be filled with CFString
objects, which have a pointer to ___CFConstantStringClassReference followed by a
pointer to a __cstring. If we allow the object in the __cstring section to be
merged with another global, then it could end up in any section. Because the
linker is going to remove these symbols in the final executable, we shouldn't
bother to merge them.

These heuristics are sufficient for enabling IV chains by
default. Performance analysis has been done for i386, x86_64, and
thumbv7. The optimization is rarely important, but can significantly
speed up certain cases by eliminating spill code within the
loop. Unrolled loops are prime candidates for IV chains. In many
cases, the final code could still be improved with more target
specific optimization following LSR. The goal of this feature is for
LSR to make the best choice of induction variables.
Instruction selection may not completely take advantage of this
feature yet. As a result, there could be cases of slight code size
increase.
Code size can be worse on x86 because it doesn't support postincrement
addressing. In fact, when chains are formed, you may see redundant
address plus stride addition in the addressing mode. GenerateIVChains
tries to compensate for the common cases.
On ARM, code size increase can be mitigated by using postincrement
addressing, but downstream codegen currently misses some opportunities.
llvm-svn: 147826
After collecting chains, check if any should be materialized. If so,
hide the chained IV users from the LSR solver. LSR will only solve for
the head of the chain. GenerateIVChains will then materialize the
chained IV users by computing the IV relative to its previous value in
the chain.
In theory, chained IV users could be exposed to LSR's solver. This
would be considerably complicated to implement and I'm not aware of a
case where we need it. In practice it's more important to
intelligently prune the search space of nontrivial loops before
running the solver, otherwise the solver is often forced to prune the
most optimal solutions. Hiding the chained users does this well, so
that LSR is more likely to find the best IV for the chain as a whole.
llvm-svn: 147801
This collects a set of IV uses within the loop whose values can be
computed relative to each other in a sequence. Following checkins will
make use of this information.
llvm-svn: 147797
This will be more important as we extend the LSR pass in ways that don't rely on the formula solver. In particular, we need it for constructing IV chains.

LoopSimplify may not run on some outer loops, e.g. because of indirect
branches. SCEVExpander simply cannot handle outer loops with no preheaders.
