it can check whether the visible direct callers are passing in parameters to
dead arguments and replace those with undef.
This reinstates r94322 with bugs fixed.

This allows eliminating a work-around from DAE. Patch by

is necessary. Inherits from new templated baseclass CallSiteBase<>
which is highly customizable. Base CallSite on it too, in a configuration
that allows full mutation.
Adapt some call sites in analyses to employ ImmutableCallSite.

I have audited all getOperandNo calls now, fixing
hidden assumptions. CallSite related uglyness will
be eliminated successively.
Note this patch has a long and griveous history,
for all the back-and-forths have a look at
CallSite.h's log.

This time I did a self-hosted bootstrap on Linux x86-64,
with no problems. Let's see how darwin 64-bit self-hosting
goes. At the first sign of failure I'll back this out.
Maybe the valgrind bots give me a hint of what may be wrong
(it at all).

- Some clients which used DOUT have moved to DEBUG. We are deprecating the
"magic" DOUT behavior which avoided calling printing functions when the
statement was disabled. In addition to being unnecessary magic, it had the
downside of leaving code in -Asserts builds, and of hiding potentially
unnecessary computations.

changes.
For InvokeInst now all arguments begin at op_begin().
The Callee, Cont and Fail are now faster to get by
access relative to op_end().
This patch introduces some temporary uglyness in CallSite.
Next I'll bring CallInst up to a similar scheme and then
the uglyness will magically vanish.
This patch also exposes all the reliance of the libraries
on InvokeInst's operand ordering. I am thinking of taking
care of that too.

- return attributes - inreg, zext and sext
- parameter attributes
- function attributes - nounwind, readonly, readnone, noreturn
Return attributes use 0 as the index.
Function attributes use ~0U as the index.
This patch requires corresponding changes in llvm-gcc and clang.

This sets the stage
- to implement function notes as function attributes and
- to distinguish between function attributes and return value attributes.
This requires corresponding changes in llvm-gcc and clang.

return value as a whole in deadargelim is really not needed now that we simply
rebuild the old return value and actually prevents some canonicalization from
taking place.
This revert stops deadargelim from changing {i32} into i32 for now, but I'll
fix that next.
llvm-svn: 53609
return values that are still (partially) live. Instead of updating all uses of
a call instruction after removing some elements, it now just rebuilds the
original struct (With undef gaps where the unused values were) and leaves it to
instcombine to clean this up.
The added testcase still fails currently, but this is due to instcombine which
isn't good enough yet. I will fix that part next.
llvm-svn: 53608
only the liveness of partial return values (for functions returning a struct).
This is more explicit to prevent unwanted changes in the return value.
In particular, deadargelim now canonicalizes a function returning {i32} to
returning i32 and {} to void, if the struct returned is not used in its
entirety, but only the single element is used.
llvm-svn: 53606
Rewrite the DeadArgumentElimination pass, to use a more explicit tracking of
dependencies between return values and/or arguments. Also make the handling of
arguments and return values the same.
The pass now looks properly inside returned structs, but only at the first
level (ie, not inside nested structs).
This version fixed a few more bugs and was cleaned up a bit. It now passes all
of LLVM's testing, and should still pass SPEC2006. There is still a minor bug
with regard to returning nested structs. Since there is currently nothing that
emits such IR, I will fix that in a seperate commit (partly because it requires
a non-trivial fix).
llvm-svn: 53400
DeadArgumentElimination and assert that the function type does not change if
nothing was changed. This should catch subtle changes in function type that are
not intended.

This is a fixed version that no longer uses multimap::equal_range, which
resulted in a pointer invalidation problem.
Also, DAE::InspectedFunctions was not really necessary, so it got removed.
Lastly, this version no longer applies the extra arg hack on functions who did
not have any arguments to start with.

dependencies between return values and/or arguments. Also make the handling of
arguments and return values the same.
The pass now looks properly inside returned structs, but only at the first
level (ie, not inside nested structs).
Also add a testcase for testing various variations of (multiple) dead rerturn
values.

the section or the visibility from one global
value to another: copyAttributesFrom. This is
particularly useful for duplicating functions:
previously this was done by explicitly copying
each attribute in turn at each place where a
new function was created out of an old one, with
the result that obscure attributes were regularly
forgotten (like the collector or the section).
Hopefully now everything is uniform and nothing
is forgotten.

1. There is now a "PAListPtr" class, which is a smart pointer around
the underlying uniqued parameter attribute list object, and manages
its refcount. It is now impossible to mess up the refcount.
2. PAListPtr is now the main interface to the underlying object, and
the underlying object is now completely opaque.
3. Implementation details like SmallVector and FoldingSet are now no
longer part of the interface.
4. You can create a PAListPtr with an arbitrary sequence of
ParamAttrsWithIndex's, no need to make a SmallVector of a specific
size (you can just use an array or scalar or vector if you wish).
5. All the client code that had to check for a null pointer before
dereferencing the pointer is simplified to just access the
PAListPtr directly.
6. The interfaces for adding attrs to a list and removing them is a
bit simpler.
Phase #2 will rename some stuff (e.g. PAListPtr) and do other less
invasive changes.

direct calls bails out unless caller and callee have essentially
equivalent parameter attributes. This is illogical - the callee's
attributes should be of no relevance here. Rework the logic, which
incidentally fixes a crash when removed arguments have attributes.
llvm-svn: 45658
return attributes on the floor. In the case of a call
to a varargs function where the varargs arguments are
being removed, any call attributes on those arguments
need to be dropped. I didn't do this because I plan to
make it illegal to have such attributes (see next patch).
With this change, compiling the gcc filter2 eh test at -O0
and then running opt -std-compile-opts on it results in
a correctly working program (compiling at -O1 or higher
results in the test failing due to a problem with how we
output eh info into the IR).

the function type, instead they belong to functions
and function calls. This is an updated and slightly
corrected version of Reid Spencer's original patch.
The only known problem is that auto-upgrading of
bitcode files doesn't seem to work properly (see
test/Bitcode/AutoUpgradeIntrinsics.ll). Hopefully
a bitcode guru (who might that be? :) ) will fix it.
