Summary:
In D49565/r337503, the type id record writing was fixed so that only
referenced type ids were emitted into each per-module index for ThinLTO
distributed builds. However, this still left an efficiency issue: each
per-module index checked all type ids for membership in the referenced
set, yielding O(M*N) performance (M indexes and N type ids).
Change the TypeIdMap in the summary to be indexed by GUID, to facilitate
correlating with type identifier GUIDs referenced in the function
summary TypeIdInfo structures. This allowed simplifying other
places where a map from type id GUID to type id map entry was previously
being used to aid this correlation.
Also fix AsmWriter code to handle the rare case of type id GUID
collision.
For a large internal application, this reduced the thin link time by
almost 15%.

Currently all type ids are emitted into the index file when it is

In order to set breakpoints on labels and list source code around
labels, we need collect debug information for labels, i.e., label
name, the function label belong, line number in the file, and the
address label located. In order to keep these information in LLVM
IR and to allow backend to generate debug information correctly.
We create a new kind of metadata for labels, DILabel. The format
of DILabel is
!DILabel(scope: !1, name: "foo", file: !2, line: 3)
We hope to keep debug information as much as possible even the
code is optimized. So, we create a new kind of intrinsic for label
metadata to avoid the metadata is eliminated with basic block.
The intrinsic will keep existing if we keep it from optimized out.
The format of the intrinsic is
llvm.dbg.label(metadata !1)
It has only one argument, that is the DILabel metadata. The
intrinsic will follow the label immediately. Backend could get the
label metadata through the intrinsic's parameter.
We also create DIBuilder API for labels to be used by Frontend.
Frontend could use createLabel() to allocate DILabel objects, and use
insertLabel() to insert llvm.dbg.label intrinsic in LLVM IR.

Summary:
This adds initial support for letting targets specify which address
spaces their functions should reside in by default.
If a function is created by a frontend, it will get the default address space specified in the DataLayout, unless the frontend explicitly uses a more general `llvm::Function` constructor. Function address spaces will become a part of the bitcode and textual IR forms, as we do not have access to a data layout whilst parsing LL.
It will be possible to write IR that explicitly has `addrspace(n)` on a function. In this case, the function will reside in the specified space, ignoring the default in the DL.
This is the first step towards placing functions into the correct
address space for Harvard architectures.

* The representation of enumerator values in the debug info metadata now
contains a boolean flag isUnsigned, which determines how the bits of
the value are interpreted.
* The DW_TAG_enumeration type DIE now always (for DWARF version >= 3)
includes a DW_AT_type attribute, which refers to the underlying
integer type, as suggested in DWARFv4 (5.7 Enumeration Type Entries).
* The debug info metadata for enumeration type contains (in flags)
indication whether this is a C++11 "fixed enum".
* For C++11 enumeration with a fixed underlying type, the DIE also
includes the DW_AT_enum_class attribute (for DWARF version >= 4).
* Encoding of enumerator constants uses DW_FORM_sdata for signed values
and DW_FORM_udata for unsigned values, as suggested by DWARFv4 (7.5.4
Attribute Encodings).
The changes should be backwards compatible:
* the isUnsigned attribute is optional and defaults to false.
* if the underlying type for the enumeration is not available, the
enumerator values are considered signed.
* the FixedEnum flag defaults to clear.
* the bitcode format for DIEnumerator stores the unsigned flag bit #1 of
the first record element, so the format does not change and the zero
previously stored there is consistent with the false default for
IsUnsigned.

n Rust, an enum that carries data in the variants is, essentially, a
discriminated union. Furthermore, the Rust compiler will perform
space optimizations on such enums in some situations. Previously,
DWARF for these constructs was emitted using a hack (a magic field
name); but this approach stopped working when more space optimizations
were added in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/45225.
This patch changes LLVM to allow discriminated unions to be
represented in DWARF. It adds createDiscriminatedUnionType and
createDiscriminatedMemberType to DIBuilder and then arranges for this
to be emitted using DWARF's DW_TAG_variant_part and DW_TAG_variant.
Note that DWARF requires that a discriminated union be represented as
a structure with a variant part. However, as Rust only needs to emit
pure discriminated unions, this is what I chose to expose on
DIBuilder.

Sometimes users do not specify data layout in LLVM assembly and let llc set the
data layout by target triple after loading the LLVM assembly.
Currently the parser checks alloca address space no matter whether the LLVM
assembly contains data layout definition, which causes false alarm since the
default data layout does not contain the correct alloca address space.
The parser also calls verifier to check debug info and updating invalid debug
info. Currently there is no way to let the verifier to check debug info only.
If the verifier finds non-debug-info issues the parser will fail.
For llc, the fix is to remove the check of alloca addr space in the parser and
disable updating debug info, and defer the updating of debug info and
verification to be after setting data layout of the IR by target.
For other llvm tools, since they do not override data layout by target but
instead can override data layout by a command line option, an argument for
overriding data layout is added to the parser. In cases where data layout
overriding is necessary for the parser, the data layout can be provided by
command line.

It was never fully disallowed. We were rejecting it in the asm parser,
but not in the verifier.
Currently TargetMachine::shouldAssumeDSOLocal returns true for hidden
ifuncs. I considered changing it and moving the check from the asm
parser to the verifier.
The reason for deciding to allow it instead is that all linkers handle
a direct reference just fine. They use the plt address as the address
of the function. In fact doing that means that clang doesn't have the

...this is a step in cleaning up our fast-math-flags implementation in IR to better match
the capabilities of both clang's user-visible flags and the backend's flags for SDNode.
As proposed in the above threads, we're replacing the 'UnsafeAlgebra' bit (which had the
'umbrella' meaning that all flags are set) with a new bit that only applies to algebraic
reassociation - 'AllowReassoc'.
We're also adding a bit to allow approximations for library functions called 'ApproxFunc'
(this was initially proposed as 'libm' or similar).
...and we're out of bits. 7 bits ought to be enough for anyone, right? :) FWIW, I did
look at getting this out of SubclassOptionalData via SubclassData (spacious 16-bits),
but that's apparently already used for other purposes. Also, I don't think we can just
add a field to FPMathOperator because Operator is not intended to be instantiated.
We'll defer movement of FMF to another day.
We keep the 'fast' keyword. I thought about removing that, but seeing IR like this:
%f.fast = fadd reassoc nnan ninf nsz arcp contract afn float %op1, %op2
...made me think we want to keep the shortcut synonym.
Finally, this change is binary incompatible with existing IR as seen in the
compatibility tests. This statement:
"Newer releases can ignore features from older releases, but they cannot miscompile
them. For example, if nsw is ever replaced with something else, dropping it would be
a valid way to upgrade the IR."
( http://llvm.org/docs/DeveloperPolicy.html#ir-backwards-compatibility )
...provides the flexibility we want to make this change without requiring a new IR
version. Ie, we're not loosening the FP strictness of existing IR. At worst, we will
fail to optimize some previously 'fast' code because it's no longer recognized as
'fast'. This should get fixed as we audit/squash all of the uses of 'isFast()'.
Note: an inter-dependent clang commit to use the new API name should closely follow
commit.

Currently we do not represent runtime preemption in the IR, which has several
drawbacks:
1) The semantics of GlobalValues differ depending on the object file format
you are targeting (as well as the relocation-model and -fPIE value).
2) We have no way of disabling inlining of run time interposable functions,
since in the IR we only know if a function is link-time interposable.
Because of this llvm cannot support elf-interposition semantics.
3) In LTO builds of executables we will have extra knowledge that a symbol
resolved to a local definition and can't be preemptable, but have no way to
propagate that knowledge through the compiler.
This patch adds preemptability specifiers to the IR with the following meaning:
dso_local --> means the compiler may assume the symbol will resolve to a
definition within the current linkage unit and the symbol may be accessed
directly even if the definition is not within this compilation unit.
dso_preemptable --> means that the compiler must assume the GlobalValue may be
replaced with a definition from outside the current linkage unit at runtime.
To ease transitioning dso_preemptable is treated as a 'default' in that
low-level codegen will still do the same checks it did previously to see if a
symbol should be accessed indirectly. Eventually when IR producers emit the
specifiers on all Globalvalues we can change dso_preemptable to mean 'always
access indirectly', and remove the current logic.

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.
