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.

Create wrapper methods in the Function class for the OptimizeForSize and MinSize
attributes. We want to hide the logic of "or'ing" them together when optimizing
just for size (-Os).
Currently, we are not consistent about this and rely on a front-end to always set
OptimizeForSize (-Os) if MinSize (-Oz) is on. Thus, there are 18 FIXME changes here
that should be added as follow-on patches with regression tests.
This patch is NFC-intended: it just replaces existing direct accesses of the attributes
by the equivalent wrapper call.

Summary:
This threshold limited FunctionAttrs ability to prove arguments to be read-only.
In NVPTX, a specialized instruction ld.global.nc can be used to load memory
with non-coherent texture cache. We notice that in SHOC [1] benchmark, some
function arguments are not marked with readonly because FunctionAttrs reaches
a hardcoded threshold when analysis uses.
Removing this threshold won't cause significant regression in compilation time, because the worst-case time complexity of the algorithm is still O(# of instructions) for each parameter.

the general GMR-in-non-LTO flag.
Without this, we have the global information during the CGSCC pipeline
for GVN and such, but don't have it available during the late loop
optimizations such as the vectorizer. Moreover, after the CGSCC pipeline
has finished we have substantially more accurate and refined call graph
information, function annotations, etc, which will make GMR even more
powerful than it is early in the pipelien.
Note that we have to play silly games with preserving AliasAnalysis
(which is now trivially preserved) in order to let a module analysis
magically be preserved into the entire function pass pipeline.
Simultaneously we have to not make GMR an immutable pass in order to be
able to re-run it and collect fresh data on the final call graph.

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.

Summary:
While working on a project I wound up generating a fairly large lookup table (10k entries) of callbacks inside of a static constructor. Clang was taking upwards of ~10 minutes to compile the lookup table. I generated a smaller test case (http://www.inolen.com/static_initializer_test.ll) that, after running with -ftime-report, pointed fingers at GlobalOpt and MemCpyOptimizer.
Running globalopt took around ~9 minutes. The slowdown came from how GlobalOpt merged stores from static constructors individually into the global initializer in EvaluateStaticConstructor. For each store it discovered and wanted to commit, it would copy the existing global initializer and then merge in the individual store. I changed this so that stores are now grouped by global, and sorted from most significant to least significant by their GEP indexes (e.g. a store to GEP 0, 0 comes before GEP 0, 0, 1). With this representation, the existing initializer can be copied and all new stores merged into it in a single pass.
With this patch and http://reviews.llvm.org/D11198, the lookup table that was taking ~10 minutes to compile now compiles in around 5 seconds. I've ran 'make check' and the test-suite, which all passed.
I'm not really sure who to tag as a reviewer, Lang mentioned that Chandler may be appropriate.

pipeline.
Even before I started improving its runtime, it was already crazy fast
once the call graph exists, and if we can get it to be conservatively
correct, will still likely catch a lot of interesting and useful cases.
So it may well be useful to enable by default.
But more importantly for me, this should make it easier for me to test
that changes aren't breaking it in fundamental ways by enabling it for
normal builds.

Note that this will likely expose that we have dead arguments, members,

We insert a bitcast which obfuscates the getCalledFunction for the utility

Not sure if the optimizer will save the call as getCalledFunction()
is not a trivial access function but the code is clearer this way.

Internalizing an individual comdat group member without also internalizing
the other members of the comdat can break comdat semantics. For example,
if a module contains a reference to an internalized comdat member, and the
linker chooses a comdat group from a different object file, this will break
the reference to the internalized member.
This change causes the internalizer to only internalize comdat members if all
other members of the comdat are not externally visible. Once a comdat group
has been fully internalized, there is no need to apply comdat rules to its
members; later optimization passes (e.g. globaldce) can legally drop individual
members of the comdat. So we drop the comdat attribute from all comdat members.

No in-tree alias analysis used this facility, and it was not called in
any particularly rigorous way, so it seems unlikely to be correct.
Note that one of the only stateful AA implementations in-tree,
GlobalsModRef is completely broken currently (and any AA passes like it
are equally broken) because Module AA passes are not effectively
invalidated when a function pass that fails to update the AA stack runs.
Ultimately, it doesn't seem like we know how we want to build stateful
AA, and until then trying to support and maintain correctness for an
untested API is essentially impossible. To that end, I'm planning to rip
out all of the update API. It can return if and when we need it and know
how to build it on top of the new pass manager and as part of *tested*
stateful AA implementations in the tree.

This change includes a fix for https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=499508#c3,
which required updating the visibility for symbols with eliminated definitions.
--Original Commit Message--
Add new EliminateAvailableExternally module pass, which is performed in
O2 compiles just before GlobalDCE, unless we are preparing for LTO.
This pass eliminates available externally globals (turning them into
declarations), regardless of whether they are dead/unreferenced, since
we are guaranteed to have a copy available elsewhere at link time.
This enables additional opportunities for GlobalDCE.
If we are preparing for LTO (e.g. a -flto -c compile), the pass is not
included as we want to preserve available externally functions for possible
link time inlining. The FE indicates whether we are doing an -flto compile
via the new PrepareForLTO flag on the PassManagerBuilder.
llvm-svn: 241466
From the linker's perspective, an available_externally global is equivalent
to an external declaration (per isDeclarationForLinker()), so it is incorrect
to consider it to be a weak definition.
Also clean up some logic in the dead argument elimination pass and clarify
its comments to better explain how its behavior depends on linkage,
introduce GlobalValue::isStrongDefinitionForLinker() and start using
it throughout the optimizers and backend.

The PruneEH pass tries to annotate functions as 'noreturn' if it doesn't
see a ReturnInst. However, a naked function containing inline assembly
can contain control flow leaving the function.
This fixes PR23971.

It is possible for a global to be substituted with another global of a
different type or a different kind (i.e. an alias) at IR link time. One
example of this scenario is when a Microsoft ABI vtable is substituted with
an alias referring to a larger vtable containing an RTTI reference.
This will cause the global to be RAUW'd with a possibly bitcasted reference
to the other global. This will of course also affect any references to the
global in bitset metadata.
The right way to handle such metadata is simply to ignore it. This is sound
because the linked module should contain another copy of the bitset entries as
applied to the new global.

The personality routine currently lives in the LandingPadInst.
This isn't desirable because:
- All LandingPadInsts in the same function must have the same
personality routine. This means that each LandingPadInst beyond the
first has an operand which produces no additional information.
- There is ongoing work to introduce EH IR constructs other than
LandingPadInst. Moving the personality routine off of any one
particular Instruction and onto the parent function seems a lot better
than have N different places a personality function can sneak onto an
exceptional function.

This is an entirely mechanical change. References to "Location" within

This patch adds the safe stack instrumentation pass to LLVM, which separates
the program stack into a safe stack, which stores return addresses, register
spills, and local variables that are statically verified to be accessed
in a safe way, and the unsafe stack, which stores everything else. Such
separation makes it much harder for an attacker to corrupt objects on the
safe stack, including function pointers stored in spilled registers and
return addresses. You can find more information about the safe stack, as
well as other parts of or control-flow hijack protection technique in our
OSDI paper on code-pointer integrity (http://dslab.epfl.ch/pubs/cpi.pdf)
and our project website (http://levee.epfl.ch).
The overhead of our implementation of the safe stack is very close to zero
(0.01% on the Phoronix benchmarks). This is lower than the overhead of
stack cookies, which are supported by LLVM and are commonly used today,
yet the security guarantees of the safe stack are strictly stronger than
stack cookies. In some cases, the safe stack improves performance due to
better cache locality.
Our current implementation of the safe stack is stable and robust, we
used it to recompile multiple projects on Linux including Chromium, and
we also recompiled the entire FreeBSD user-space system and more than 100
packages. We ran unit tests on the FreeBSD system and many of the packages
and observed no errors caused by the safe stack. The safe stack is also fully
binary compatible with non-instrumented code and can be applied to parts of
a program selectively.
This patch is our implementation of the safe stack on top of LLVM. The
patches make the following changes:
- Add the safestack function attribute, similar to the ssp, sspstrong and
sspreq attributes.
- Add the SafeStack instrumentation pass that applies the safe stack to all
functions that have the safestack attribute. This pass moves all unsafe local
variables to the unsafe stack with a separate stack pointer, whereas all
safe variables remain on the regular stack that is managed by LLVM as usual.
- Invoke the pass as the last stage before code generation (at the same time
the existing cookie-based stack protector pass is invoked).
- Add unit tests for the safe stack.

Lab at EPFL; updates and upstreaming by myself.
