By default, CMake uses a 32-bit toolchain, even when on a 64-bit platform targeting a 64-bit build. However, due to the size of the binaries involved, this can cause linker instabilities (such as the linker running out of memory). Guide people to the correct solution to get CMake to use the native toolchain.

The default behavior of -Rpass-analysis=loop-vectorizer is to report only the
first reason encountered for not vectorizing, if one is found, at which time the
vectorizer aborts its handling of the loop. This patch allows multiple reasons
for not vectorizing to be identified and reported, at the potential expense of
additional compile-time, under allowExtraAnalysis which can currently be turned
on by Clang's -fsave-optimization-record and opt's -pass-remarks-missed.
Removed from LoopVectorizationLegality::canVectorize() the redundant checking
and reporting if we CantComputeNumberOfIterations, as LAI::canAnalyzeLoop() also
does that. This redundancy is caught by a lit test once multiple reasons are
reported.
Patch initially developed by Dror Barak.

This patch extends llvm-ir to allow attributes to be set on global variables.
An RFC was sent out earlier by my colleague James Molloy: http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/cfe-dev/2017-March/053100.html
A key part of that proposal was to extend LLVM-IR to carry attributes on global variables.
This generic feature could be useful for multiple purposes.
In our present context, it would be useful to carry user specified sections for bss/rodata/data.

- This change allows targets to opt-in to using them instead of the log2
shufflevector algorithm.
- The SLP and Loop vectorizers have the common code to do shuffle reductions
factored out into LoopUtils, and now have a unified interface for generating
reductions regardless of the preference of the target. LoopUtils now uses TTI
to determine what kind of reductions the target wants to handle.
- For CodeGen, basic legalization support is added.

- MIRPrinter: Adds a new `simplify-mir` option, with that option set:
Skip printing of block successor lists in cases where the
parser is guaranteed to reconstruct it. This means we still print the
list if some successor cannot be determined (happens for example for
jump tables), if the successor order changes or branch probabilities

The DWARF specification knows 3 kinds of non-empty simple location
descriptions:
1. Register location descriptions
- describe a variable in a register
- consist of only a DW_OP_reg
2. Memory location descriptions
- describe the address of a variable
3. Implicit location descriptions
- describe the value of a variable
- end with DW_OP_stack_value & friends
The existing DwarfExpression code is pretty much ignorant of these
restrictions. This used to not matter because we only emitted very
short expressions that we happened to get right by accident. This
patch makes DwarfExpression aware of the rules defined by the DWARF
standard and now chooses the right kind of location description for
each expression being emitted.
This would have been an NFC commit (for the existing testsuite) if not
for the way that clang describes captured block variables. Based on
how the previous code in LLVM emitted locations, DW_OP_deref
operations that should have come at the end of the expression are put
at its beginning. Fixing this means changing the semantics of
DIExpression, so this patch bumps the version number of DIExpression
and implements a bitcode upgrade.
There are two major changes in this patch:
I had to fix the semantics of dbg.declare for describing function
arguments. After this patch a dbg.declare always takes the *address*
of a variable as the first argument, even if the argument is not an
alloca.
When lowering a DBG_VALUE, the decision of whether to emit a register
location description or a memory location description depends on the
MachineLocation — register machine locations may get promoted to
memory locations based on their DIExpression. (Future) optimization
passes that want to salvage implicit debug location for variables may
do so by appending a DW_OP_stack_value. For example:
DBG_VALUE, [RBP-8] --> DW_OP_fbreg -8
DBG_VALUE, RAX --> DW_OP_reg0 +0
DBG_VALUE, RAX, DIExpression(DW_OP_deref) --> DW_OP_reg0 +0
All testcases that were modified were regenerated from clang. I also
added source-based testcases for each of these to the debuginfo-tests
repository over the last week to make sure that no synchronized bugs
slip in. The debuginfo-tests compile from source and run the debugger.

Add a top-level STRTAB block containing a string table blob, and start storing
strings for module codes FUNCTION, GLOBALVAR, ALIAS, IFUNC and COMDAT in
the string table.
This change allows us to share names between globals and comdats as well
as between modules, and improves the efficiency of loading bitcode files by
no longer using a bit encoding for symbol names. Once we start writing the
irsymtab to the bitcode file we will also be able to share strings between
it and the module.
On my machine, link time for Chromium for Linux with ThinLTO decreases by
about 7% for no-op incremental builds or about 1% for full builds. Total
bitcode file size decreases by about 3%.

LLVM makes several assumptions about address space 0. However,
alloca is presently constrained to always return this address space.
There's no real way to avoid using alloca, so without this
there is no way to opt out of these assumptions.
The problematic assumptions include:
- That the pointer size used for the stack is the same size as
the code size pointer, which is also the maximum sized pointer.
- That 0 is an invalid, non-dereferencable pointer value.
These are problems for AMDGPU because alloca is used to
implement the private address space, which uses a 32-bit
index as the pointer value. Other pointers are 64-bit
and behave more like LLVM's notion of generic address
space. By changing the address space used for allocas,
we can change our generic pointer type to be LLVM's generic
pointer type which does have similar properties.

Summary:
This class is a list of AttributeSetNodes corresponding the function
prototype of a call or function declaration. This class used to be
called ParamAttrListPtr, then AttrListPtr, then AttributeSet. It is
typically accessed by parameter and return value index, so
"AttributeList" seems like a more intuitive name.
Rename AttributeSetImpl to AttributeListImpl to follow suit.
It's useful to rename this class so that we can rename AttributeSetNode
to AttributeSet later. AttributeSet is the set of attributes that apply
to a single function, argument, or return value.

This is an ELF-specific thing that adds SHF_LINK_ORDER to the global's section
pointing to the metadata argument's section. The effect of that is a reverse dependency

!associated does not change the behavior of global-dce. The global

Since SHF_LINK_ORDER is per-section, !associated effectively enables
fdata-sections for the affected globals, the same as comdats do.

If `--enable-var-scope` is in effect, variables with names that
start with `$` are considered to be global. All other variables are
local. All local variables get undefined at the beginning of each
CHECK-LABEL block. Global variables are not affected by CHECK-LABEL.
This makes it easier to ensure that individual tests are not affected
by variables set in preceding tests.

Summary:
The purpose of coro.end intrinsic is to allow frontends to mark the cleanup and
other code that is only relevant during the initial invocation of the coroutine
and should not be present in resume and destroy parts.
In landing pads coro.end is replaced with an appropriate instruction to unwind to
caller. The handling of coro.end differs depending on whether the target is
using landingpad or WinEH exception model.
For landingpad based exception model, it is expected that frontend uses the
`coro.end`_ intrinsic as follows:
```
ehcleanup:
%InResumePart = call i1 @llvm.coro.end(i8* null, i1 true)
br i1 %InResumePart, label %eh.resume, label %cleanup.cont
cleanup.cont:
; rest of the cleanup
eh.resume:
%exn = load i8*, i8** %exn.slot, align 8
%sel = load i32, i32* %ehselector.slot, align 4
%lpad.val = insertvalue { i8*, i32 } undef, i8* %exn, 0
%lpad.val29 = insertvalue { i8*, i32 } %lpad.val, i32 %sel, 1
resume { i8*, i32 } %lpad.val29
```
The `CoroSpit` pass replaces `coro.end` with ``True`` in the resume functions,
thus leading to immediate unwind to the caller, whereas in start function it
is replaced with ``False``, thus allowing to proceed to the rest of the cleanup
code that is only needed during initial invocation of the coroutine.
For Windows Exception handling model, a frontend should attach a funclet bundle
referring to an enclosing cleanuppad as follows:
```
ehcleanup:
%tok = cleanuppad within none []
%unused = call i1 @llvm.coro.end(i8* null, i1 true) [ "funclet"(token %tok) ]
cleanupret from %tok unwind label %RestOfTheCleanup
```
The `CoroSplit` pass, if the funclet bundle is present, will insert
``cleanupret from %tok unwind to caller`` before
the `coro.end`_ intrinsic and will remove the rest of the block.

fallible functions.
Some fallible functions (those returning Error or Expected<T>) may only fail
for a subset of their inputs. For example, a "safe" square root function will
succeed for all finite positive inputs:
Expected<double> safeSqrt(double d) {
if (d < 0 && !isnan(d) && !isinf(d))
return make_error<...>("Cannot sqrt -ve values, nans or infs");
return sqrt(d);
}
At a safe callsite for such a function, checking the error return value is
redundant:
if (auto ValOrErr = safeSqrt(42.0)) {
// use *ValOrErr.
} else
llvm_unreachable("safeSqrt should always succeed for +ve values");
The cantFail function wraps this check and extracts the contained value,
simplifying control flow:
double Result = cantFail(safeSqrt(42.0));
This function should be used with care: it is a programmatic error to wrap a
call with cantFail if it can in fact fail. For debug builds this will
result in llvm_unreachable being called. For release builds the behavior is
undefined.
Use of this function is likely to be rare in library code, but more common
for tool and unit-test code where inputs and mock functions may be known to be
safe.
