1f5e832e39 [AA][NFC] Convert AliasResult to class containing offset for PartialAlias case.
Add an ability to store `Offset` between partially aliased location. Use this
storage within returned `ResultAlias` instead of caching it in `AAQueryInfo`.

a698d3528e [AA] Cache (optionally) estimated PartialAlias offsets.
For the cases of two clobbering loads and one loaded object is fully contained
in the second `BasicAAResult::aliasGEP` returns just `PartialAlias` that
is actually more common case of partial overlap, it doesn't say anything about
actual overlapping sizes.

AA users such as GVN and DSE have no functionality to estimate aliasing of GEPs
with non-constant offsets. The change stores estimated relative offsets so they
can be used further.

c2d5b85909 [BasicAA] Fix BatchAA results for phi-phi assumptions
Change the way NoAlias assumptions in BasicAA are handled. Instead of
handling this inside the phi-phi code, always initially insert a
NoAlias result into the map and keep track whether it is used.
If it is used, then we require that we also get back NoAlias from
the recursive queries. Otherwise, the entry is changed to MayAlias.

Additionally, keep track of all location pairs we inserted that may
still be based on assumptions higher up. If it turns out one of those
assumptions is incorrect, we flush them from the cache.

The compile-time impact for the new implementation is significantly
higher than the previous iteration of this patch:
https://llvm-compile-time-tracker.com/compare.php?from=c0bb9859de6991cc233e2dedb978dd118da8c382&to=c07112373279143e37568b5bcd293daf81a35973&stat=instructions
However, it should avoid the exponential runtime cases we run into
if we don't cache assumption-based results entirely.

This also produces better results in some cases, because NoAlias
assumptions can now start at any root, rather than just phi-phi pairs.
This is not just relevant for analysis quality, but also for BatchAA
consistency: Otherwise, results would once again depend on query order,
though at least they wouldn't be wrong.

This ended up both more complicated and more expensive than I hoped,
but I wasn't able to come up with another solution that satisfies all
the constraints.

0e6a699715 [AA] Split up LocationSize::unknown()
Currently, we have some confusion in the codebase regarding the
meaning of LocationSize::unknown(): Some parts (including most of
BasicAA) assume that LocationSize::unknown() only allows accesses
after the base pointer. Some parts (various callers of AA) assume
that LocationSize::unknown() allows accesses both before and after
the base pointer (but within the underlying object).

This patch splits up LocationSize::unknown() into
LocationSize::afterPointer() and LocationSize::beforeOrAfterPointer()
to make this completely unambiguous. I tried my best to determine
which one is appropriate for all the existing uses.

The test changes in cs-cs.ll in particular illustrate a previously
clearly incorrect AA result: We were effectively assuming that
argmemonly functions were only allowed to access their arguments
after the passed pointer, but not before it. I'm pretty sure that
this was not intentional, and it's certainly not specified by
LangRef that way.

ac22411ea8 [BasicAA] Fix caching in the presence of phi cycles
Any time we insert a block into VisitedPhiBBs, previously cached
values may no longer be valid for the recursive alias queries. As
such, perform them using an empty AAQueryInfo.

Note that if we recurse to the same phi, the block will already
be inserted, so we reuse the old AAQueryInfo, and thus still
protect against infinite recursion.

This problem can appear with with an without BatchAA, but is more
likely to occur with BatchAA, as more values are cached.

3fc1696aca [AliasAnalysis] Second prototype to cache BasicAA / anyAA state.
Summary:
Adding contained caching to AliasAnalysis. BasicAA is currently the only one using it.

AA changes:
- This patch is pulling the caches from BasicAAResults to AAResults, meaning the getModRefInfo call benefits from the IsCapturedCache as well when in "batch mode".
- All AAResultBase implementations add the QueryInfo member to all APIs. AAResults APIs maintain wrapper APIs such that all alias()/getModRefInfo call sites are unchanged.
- AA now provides a BatchAAResults type as a wrapper to AAResults. It keeps the AAResults instance and a QueryInfo instantiated to batch mode. It delegates all work to the AAResults instance with the batched QueryInfo. More API wrappers may be needed in BatchAAResults; only the minimum needed is currently added.

MemorySSA changes:
- All walkers are now templated on the AA used (AliasAnalysis=AAResults or BatchAAResults).
- At build time, we optimize uses; now we create a local walker (lives only as long as OptimizeUses does) using BatchAAResults.
- All Walkers have an internal AA and only use that now, never the AA in MemorySSA. The Walkers receive the AA they will use when built.

- The walker we use for queries after the build is instantiated on AliasAnalysis and is built after building MemorySSA and setting AA.
- All static methods doing walking are now templated on AliasAnalysisType if they are used both during build and after. If used only during build, the method now only takes a BatchAAResults. If used only after build, the method now takes an AliasAnalysis.

846be29e5e [opaque pointer types] Add a FunctionCallee wrapper type, and use it.
Recommit r352791 after tweaking DerivedTypes.h slightly, so that gcc
doesn't choke on it, hopefully.

Original Message:
The FunctionCallee type is effectively a {FunctionType*,Value*} pair,
and is a useful convenience to enable code to continue passing the
result of getOrInsertFunction() through to EmitCall, even once pointer
types lose their pointee-type.

Then:
- update the CallInst/InvokeInst instruction creation functions to
  take a Callee,
- modify getOrInsertFunction to return FunctionCallee, and
- update all callers appropriately.

One area of particular note is the change to the sanitizer
code. Previously, they had been casting the result of
`getOrInsertFunction` to a `Function*` via
`checkSanitizerInterfaceFunction`, and storing that. That would report
an error if someone had already inserted a function declaraction with
a mismatching signature.

However, in general, LLVM allows for such mismatches, as
`getOrInsertFunction` will automatically insert a bitcast if
needed. As part of this cleanup, cause the sanitizer code to do the
same. (It will call its functions using the expected signature,
however they may have been declared.)

Finally, in a small number of locations, callers of
`getOrInsertFunction` actually were expecting/requiring that a brand
new function was being created. In such cases, I've switched them to
Function::Create instead.

Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM

code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of

647946fa14 llvm: Add support for "-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks"
Summary:
Support for this option is needed for building Linux kernel.
This is a very frequently requested feature by kernel developers.

More details : https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/4/601

GCC option description for -fdelete-null-pointer-checks:
This Assume that programs cannot safely dereference null pointers,
and that no code or data element resides at address zero.

-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks is the inverse of this implying that
null pointer dereferencing is not undefined.

This feature is implemented in LLVM IR in this CL as the function attribute
"null-pointer-is-valid"="true" in IR (Under review at D47894).
The CL updates several passes that assumed null pointer dereferencing is
undefined to not optimize when the "null-pointer-is-valid"="true"
attribute is present.

7b373d280b Allow None as a MemoryLocation to getModRefInfo
Summary:
Adding part of the changes in D30369 (needed to make progress):
Current patch updates AliasAnalysis and MemoryLocation, but does _not_ clean up MemorySSA.

Original summary from D30369, by dberlin:
Currently, we have instructions which affect memory but have no memory
location. If you call, for example, MemoryLocation::get on a fence,
it asserts. This means things specifically have to avoid that. It
also means we end up with a copy of each API, one taking a memory
location, one not.

This starts to fix that.

We add MemoryLocation::getOrNone as a new call, and reimplement the
old asserting version in terms of it.

We make MemoryLocation optional in the (Instruction, MemoryLocation)
version of getModRefInfo, and kill the old one argument version in
favor of passing None (it had one caller). Now both can handle fences
because you can just use MemoryLocation::getOrNone on an instruction
and it will return a correct answer.

We use all this to clean up part of MemorySSA that had to handle this difference.

Note that literally every actual getModRefInfo interface we have could be made private and replaced with:

getModRefInfo(Instruction, Optional<MemoryLocation>)
and
getModRefInfo(Instruction, Optional<MemoryLocation>, Instruction, Optional<MemoryLocation>)

and delegating to the right ones, if we wanted to.

I have not attempted to do this yet.

d382d6f3fc Enhance synchscope representation
OpenCL 2.0 introduces the notion of memory scopes in atomic operations to
  global and local memory. These scopes restrict how synchronization is
  achieved, which can result in improved performance.

  This change extends existing notion of synchronization scopes in LLVM to
  support arbitrary scopes expressed as target-specific strings, in addition to
  the already defined scopes (single thread, system).

  The LLVM IR and MIR syntax for expressing synchronization scopes has changed
  to use *syncscope("<scope>")*, where <scope> can be "singlethread" (this
  replaces *singlethread* keyword), or a target-specific name. As before, if
  the scope is not specified, it defaults to CrossThread/System scope.

  Implementation details:
    - Mapping from synchronization scope name/string to synchronization scope id
      is stored in LLVM context;
    - CrossThread/System and SingleThread scopes are pre-defined to efficiently
      check for known scopes without comparing strings;
    - Synchronization scope names are stored in SYNC_SCOPE_NAMES_BLOCK in
      the bitcode.

f4f5b32f44 NFC: make AtomicOrdering an enum class
Summary:
In the context of http://wg21.link/lwg2445 C++ uses the concept of
'stronger' ordering but doesn't define it properly. This should be fixed
in C++17 barring a small question that's still open.

The code currently plays fast and loose with the AtomicOrdering
enum. Using an enum class is one step towards tightening things. I later
also want to tighten related enums, such as clang's
AtomicOrderingKind (which should be shared with LLVM as a 'C++ ABI'
enum).

This change touches a few lines of code which can be improved later, I'd
like to keep it as NFC for now as it's already quite complex. I have
related changes for clang.

As a follow-up I'll add:
  bool operator<(AtomicOrdering, AtomicOrdering) = delete;
  bool operator>(AtomicOrdering, AtomicOrdering) = delete;
  bool operator<=(AtomicOrdering, AtomicOrdering) = delete;
  bool operator>=(AtomicOrdering, AtomicOrdering) = delete;
This is separate so that clang and LLVM changes don't need to be in sync.

e597ed0112 [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.

2d5e031754 [AA] Enhance the new AliasAnalysis infrastructure with an optional
"external" AA wrapper pass.

This is a generic hook that can be used to thread custom code into the
primary AAResultsWrapperPass for the legacy pass manager in order to
allow it to merge external AA results into the AA results it is
building. It does this by threading in a raw callback and so it is
*very* powerful and should serve almost any use case I have come up with
for extending the set of alias analyses used. The only thing not well
supported here is using a *different order* of alias analyses. That form
of extension *is* supportable with the new pass manager, and I can make
the callback structure here more elaborate to support it in the legacy
pass manager if this is a critical use case that people are already
depending on, but the only use cases I have heard of thus far should be
reasonably satisfied by this simpler extension mechanism.

It is hard to test this using normal facilities (the built-in AAs don't
use this for obvious reasons) so I've written a fairly extensive set of
custom passes in the alias analysis unit test that should be an
excellent test case because it models the out-of-tree users: it adds
a totally custom AA to the system. This should also serve as
a reasonably good example and guide for out-of-tree users to follow in
order to rig up their existing alias analyses.

No support in opt for commandline control is provided here however. I'm
really unhappy with the kind of contortions that would be required to
support that. It would fully re-introduce the analysis group
self-recursion kind of patterns. =/

I've heard from out-of-tree users that this will unblock their use cases
with extending AAs on top of the new infrastructure and let us retain
the new analysis-group-free-world.

d7003090ac [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.

a0655c50ee [PM/AA] Hoist the interface for BasicAA into a header file.
This is the first mechanical step in preparation for making this and all
the other alias analysis passes available to the new pass manager. I'm
factoring out all the totally boring changes I can so I'm moving code
around here with no other changes. I've even minimized the formatting
churn.

I'll reformat and freshen comments on the interface now that its located
in the right place so that the substantive changes don't triger this.

2e896f4f08 [PM/AA] Extract the ModRef enums from the AliasAnalysis class in
preparation for de-coupling the AA implementations.

In order to do this, they had to become fake-scoped using the
traditional LLVM pattern of a leading initialism. These can't be actual
scoped enumerations because they're bitfields and thus inherently we use
them as integers.

I've also renamed the behavior enums that are specific to reasoning
about the mod/ref behavior of functions when called. This makes it more
clear that they have a very narrow domain of applicability.

I think there is a significantly cleaner API for all of this, but
I don't want to try to do really substantive changes for now, I just
want to refactor the things away from analysis groups so I'm preserving
the exact original design and just cleaning up the names, style, and
lifting out of the class.

cc1aae13e7 [PM/AA] Remove the Location typedef from the AliasAnalysis class now
that it is its own entity in the form of MemoryLocation, and update all
the callers.

This is an entirely mechanical change. References to "Location" within
AA subclases become "MemoryLocation", and elsewhere
"AliasAnalysis::Location" becomes "MemoryLocation". Hope that helps
out-of-tree folks update.
