to optionally look for constant or local (alloca) memory.
Teach BasicAliasAnalysis::pointsToConstantMemory to look through Select
and Phi nodes, and to support looking for local memory.
Remove FunctionAttrs' PointsToLocalOrConstantMemory function, now that
AliasAnalysis knows all the tricks that it knew.

isn't a good level of abstraction for memdep. Instead, generalize
AliasAnalysis::alias and related interfaces with a new Location
class for describing a memory location. For now, this is the same
Pointer and Size as before, plus an additional field for a TBAA tag.
Also, introduce a fixed MD_tbaa metadata tag kind.

AliasAnalysis, and some code for implementing the new query on top of
existing implementations by making standard alias and getModRefInfo
queries.

eliminate several const_casts.
Make CallSite implicitly convertible to ImmutableCallSite.
Rename the getModRefBehavior for intrinsic IDs to
getIntrinsicModRefBehavior to avoid overload ambiguity with CallSite,
which happens to be implicitly convertible to bool.

interface needs implementations to be consistent, so any code which
wants to support different semantics must use a different interface.
It's not currently worthwhile to add a new interface for this new
concept.
Document that AliasAnalysis doesn't support cross-function queries.

memcpy, memset and other intrinsics that only access their arguments
to be readnone if the intrinsic's arguments all point to local memory.
This improves the testcase in the README to readonly, but it could in
theory be made readnone, however this would involve more sophisticated
analysis that looks through the memcpy.

being used for atomic intrinsics, it seems the
access may be volatile. No code was exploiting
the original non-volatile definition, so only
the comment needs changing.

they are useful to analyses other than BasicAliasAnalysis.cpp. Include
the full comment for isIdentifiedObject in the header file. Thanks to
Chris for suggeseting this.

If a MachineInstr doesn't have a memoperand but has an opcode that
is known to load or store, assume its memory reference may alias
*anything*, including stack slots which the compiler completely
controls.
To partially compensate for this, teach the ScheduleDAG building
code to do basic getUnderlyingValue analysis. This greatly
reduces the number of instructions that require restrictive
dependencies. This code will need to be revisited when we start
doing real alias analysis, but it should suffice for now.

into alias analysis. This meant updating the API
which now has versions of the getModRefBehavior,
doesNotAccessMemory and onlyReadsMemory methods
which take a callsite parameter. These should be
used unless the callsite is not known, since in
general they can do a better job than the versions
that take a function. Also, users should no longer
call the version of getModRefBehavior that takes
both a function and a callsite. To reduce the
chance of misuse it is now protected.

1. Move IncludeFile.h to System library
2. Move IncludeFile.cpp to System library
3. #1 and #2 required to prevent cyclic library dependencies for libSystem
4. Convert all existing uses of Support/IncludeFile.h to System/IncludeFile.h
5. Add IncludeFile support to various lib/System classes.
6. Add new lib/System classes to LinkAllVMCore.h
All this in an attempt to pull in lib/System to what's required for VMCore

1. Fix the macros in IncludeFile.h to put everything in the llvm namespace
2. Replace the previous explicit mechanism in all the .h and .cpp files
with the macros in IncludeFile.h
This gets us a consistent mechanism throughout LLVM for ensuring linkage.
Next step is to make sure its used in enough places.
llvm-svn: 28715
Break the "IncludeFile" mechanism into its own header file and adjust other
files accordingly. Use this facility for the IntrinsicInst problem which
was the subject of PR800.
More to follow on this.

IncludeFile hack to ensure linkage of analysis passes. This works around
some -pedantic warnings about assigning an object to a function.

1. Provide interfaces so that clients can update alias analyses to reflect
the changes made by the transformations.
2. Change how alias analysis implementations work overall. In particular,
now clients will automatically forward to chained AA implementations: they
don't have to remember to do it themselves.
