34ee3789f3 New EH representation for MSVC compatibility
This introduces new instructions neccessary to implement MSVC-compatible
exception handling support.  Most of the middle-end and none of the
back-end haven't been audited or updated to take them into account.

60e99d0ca9 [opaque pointers] Avoid the use of pointee types when parsing inline asm in IR
When parsing calls to inline asm the pointee type (of the pointer type
representing the value type of the InlineAsm value) was used. To avoid
using it, use the ValID structure to ferry the FunctionType directly
through to the InlineAsm construction.

This is a bit of a workaround - alternatively the inline asm could
explicitly describe the type but that'd be verbose/redundant in the IR
and so long as the inline asm calls directly in the context of a call or
invoke, this should suffice.

ef15081996 AsmParser: Add a function to parse a standalone constant value.
This commit extends the interface provided by the AsmParser library by adding a
function that allows the user to parse a standalone contant value.

This change is useful for MIR serialization, as it will allow the MIR Parser to
parse the constant values in a machine constant pool.

8eaa591b52 AsmParser: Extend the API to make the global value and metadata node slot mappings publicly accessible.
This commit creates a new structure called 'SlotMapping' in the AsmParser library.
This structure can be passed into the public parsing APIs from the AsmParser library
in order to extract the data structures that map from slot numbers to unnamed global
values and metadata nodes.

This change is useful for MIR Serialization, as the MIR Parser has to lookup the
unnamed global values and metadata nodes by their slot numbers.

c4adf5ea45 IR: Add assembly/bitcode support for function metadata attachments
Add serialization support for function metadata attachments (added in
r235783).  The syntax is:

    define @foo() !attach !0 {

Metadata attachments are only allowed on functions with bodies.  Since
they come before the `{`, they're not really part of the body; since
they require a body, they're not really part of the header.  In
`LLParser` I gave them a separate function called from `ParseDefine()`,
`ParseOptionalFunctionMetadata()`.

In bitcode, I'm using the same `METADATA_ATTACHMENT` record used by
instructions.  Instruction metadata attachments are included in a
special "attachment" block at the end of a `Function`.  The attachment
records are laid out like this:

    InstID (KindID MetadataID)+

Note that these records always have an odd number of fields.  The new
code takes advantage of this to recognize function attachments (which
don't need an instruction ID):

    (KindID MetadataID)+

This means we can use the same attachment block already used for
instructions.

This is part of PR23340.

2d08e46e8b [IR] Introduce a dereferenceable_or_null(N) attribute.
Summary:
If a pointer is marked as dereferenceable_or_null(N), LLVM assumes it
is either `null` or `dereferenceable(N)` or both.  This change only
introduces the attribute and adds a token test case for the `llvm-as`
/ `llvm-dis`.  It does not hook up other parts of the optimizer to
actually exploit the attribute -- those changes will come later.

For pointers in address space 0, `dereferenceable(N)` is now exactly
equivalent to `dereferenceable_or_null(N)` && `nonnull`.  For other
address spaces, `dereferenceable(N)` is potentially weaker than
`dereferenceable_or_null(N)` && `nonnull` (since we could have a null
`dereferenceable(N)` pointer).

The motivating case for this change is Java (and other managed
languages), where pointers are either `null` or dereferenceable up to
some usually known-at-compile-time constant offset.

62114fe9d4 Revert "unique_ptrify ValID::ConstantStructElts"
This reverts r231200 and r231204. The second one added an explicit move
ctor for MSVC.

This change broke the clang-cl self-host due to weirdness in MSVC's
implementation of std::map::insert. Somehow we lost our rvalue ref-ness
when going through variadic placement new:

  template <class _Objty, class... _Types>
  void construct(_Objty *_Ptr,
                 _Types &&... _Args) { // construct _Objty(_Types...) at _Ptr
    ::new ((void *)_Ptr) _Objty(_STD forward<_Types>(_Args)...);
  }

For some reason, Clang decided to call the deleted std::pair copy
constructor at this point. Needs further investigation, once I can
build.

f9b228449d Remove the explicit SDNodeIterator::operator= in favor of the implicit default
There doesn't seem to be any need to assert that iterator assignment is
between iterators over the same node - if you want to reuse an iterator
variable to iterate another node, that's perfectly acceptable. Just
don't mix comparisons between iterators into disjoint sequences, as
usual.

0341a8121b IR: Remove MDNodeFwdDecl
Remove `MDNodeFwdDecl` (as promised in r226481).  Aside from API
changes, there's no real functionality change here.
`MDNode::getTemporary()` now forwards to `MDTuple::getTemporary()`,
which returns a tuple with `isTemporary()` equal to true.

The main point is that we can now add temporaries of other `MDNode`
subclasses, needed for PR22235 (I introduced `MDNodeFwdDecl` in the
first place because I didn't recognize this need, and thought they were
only needed to handle forward references).

A few things left out of (or highlighted by) this commit:

  - I've had to remove the (few) uses of `std::unique_ptr<>` to deal
    with temporaries, since the destructor is no longer public.
    `getTemporary()` should probably return the equivalent of
    `std::unique_ptr<T, MDNode::deleteTemporary>`.
  - `MDLocation::getTemporary()` doesn't exist yet (worse, it actually
    does exist, but does the wrong thing: `MDNode::getTemporary()` is
    inherited and returns an `MDTuple`).
  - `MDNode` now only has one subclass, `UniquableMDNode`, and the
    distinction between them is actually somewhat confusing.

I'll fix those up next.

bc9ee9160a IR: Add 'distinct' MDNodes to bitcode and assembly
Propagate whether `MDNode`s are 'distinct' through the other types of IR
(assembly and bitcode).  This adds the `distinct` keyword to assembly.

Currently, no one actually calls `MDNode::getDistinct()`, so these nodes
only get created for:

  - self-references, which are never uniqued, and
  - nodes whose operands are replaced that hit a uniquing collision.

The concept of distinct nodes is still not quite first-class, since
distinct-ness doesn't yet survive across `MapMetadata()`.

20dc6c7571 Change the .ll syntax for comdats and add a syntactic sugar.
In order to make comdats always explicit in the IR, we decided to make
the syntax a bit more compact for the case of a GlobalObject in a
comdat with the same name.

Just dropping the $name causes problems for

@foo = globabl i32 0, comdat
$bar = comdat ...

and

declare void @foo() comdat
$bar = comdat ...

So the syntax is changed to

@g1 = globabl i32 0, comdat($c1)
@g2 = globabl i32 0, comdat

and

declare void @foo() comdat($c1)
declare void @foo() comdat

9c5542c040 IR: Make metadata typeless in assembly
Now that `Metadata` is typeless, reflect that in the assembly.  These
are the matching assembly changes for the metadata/value split in
r223802.

  - Only use the `metadata` type when referencing metadata from a call
    intrinsic -- i.e., only when it's used as a `Value`.

  - Stop pretending that `ValueAsMetadata` is wrapped in an `MDNode`
    when referencing it from call intrinsics.

So, assembly like this:

    define @foo(i32 %v) {
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 %v}, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 7}, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata !1, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{metadata !3}, metadata !0)
      ret void, !bar !2
    }
    !0 = metadata !{metadata !2}
    !1 = metadata !{i32* @global}
    !2 = metadata !{metadata !3}
    !3 = metadata !{}

turns into this:

    define @foo(i32 %v) {
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 %v, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 7, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32* @global, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
      call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{!3}, metadata !0)
      ret void, !bar !2
    }
    !0 = !{!2}
    !1 = !{i32* @global}
    !2 = !{!3}
    !3 = !{}

I wrote an upgrade script that handled almost all of the tests in llvm
and many of the tests in cfe (even handling many `CHECK` lines).  I've

3d57886267 IR: Split Metadata from Value
Split `Metadata` away from the `Value` class hierarchy, as part of
PR21532.  Assembly and bitcode changes are in the wings, but this is the
bulk of the change for the IR C++ API.

I have a follow-up patch prepared for `clang`.  If this breaks other
sub-projects, I apologize in advance :(.  Help me compile it on Darwin
I'll try to fix it.  FWIW, the errors should be easy to fix, so it may
be simpler to just fix it yourself.

This breaks the build for all metadata-related code that's out-of-tree.
Rest assured the transition is mechanical and the compiler should catch
almost all of the problems.

Here's a quick guide for updating your code:

  - `Metadata` is the root of a class hierarchy with three main classes:
    `MDNode`, `MDString`, and `ValueAsMetadata`.  It is distinct from
    the `Value` class hierarchy.  It is typeless -- i.e., instances do
    *not* have a `Type`.

  - `MDNode`'s operands are all `Metadata *` (instead of `Value *`).

  - `TrackingVH<MDNode>` and `WeakVH` referring to metadata can be
    replaced with `TrackingMDNodeRef` and `TrackingMDRef`, respectively.

    If you're referring solely to resolved `MDNode`s -- post graph
    construction -- just use `MDNode*`.

  - `MDNode` (and the rest of `Metadata`) have only limited support for
    `replaceAllUsesWith()`.

    As long as an `MDNode` is pointing at a forward declaration -- the
    result of `MDNode::getTemporary()` -- it maintains a side map of its
    uses and can RAUW itself.  Once the forward declarations are fully
    resolved RAUW support is dropped on the ground.  This means that
    uniquing collisions on changing operands cause nodes to become
    "distinct".  (This already happened fairly commonly, whenever an
    operand went to null.)

    If you're constructing complex (non self-reference) `MDNode` cycles,
    you need to call `MDNode::resolveCycles()` on each node (or on a
    top-level node that somehow references all of the nodes).  Also,
    don't do that.  Metadata cycles (and the RAUW machinery needed to
    construct them) are expensive.

  - An `MDNode` can only refer to a `Constant` through a bridge called
    `ConstantAsMetadata` (one of the subclasses of `ValueAsMetadata`).

    As a side effect, accessing an operand of an `MDNode` that is known
    to be, e.g., `ConstantInt`, takes three steps: first, cast from
    `Metadata` to `ConstantAsMetadata`; second, extract the `Constant`;
    third, cast down to `ConstantInt`.

    The eventual goal is to introduce `MDInt`/`MDFloat`/etc. and have
    metadata schema owners transition away from using `Constant`s when
    the type isn't important (and they don't care about referring to
    `GlobalValue`s).

    In the meantime, I've added transitional API to the `mdconst`
    namespace that matches semantics with the old code, in order to
    avoid adding the error-prone three-step equivalent to every call
    site.  If your old code was:

        MDNode *N = foo();
        bar(isa             <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
        baz(cast            <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
        bak(cast_or_null    <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
        bat(dyn_cast        <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
        bay(dyn_cast_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));

    you can trivially match its semantics with:

        MDNode *N = foo();
        bar(mdconst::hasa               <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
        baz(mdconst::extract            <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
        bak(mdconst::extract_or_null    <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
        bat(mdconst::dyn_extract        <ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
        bay(mdconst::dyn_extract_or_null<ConstantInt>(N->getOperand(4)));

    and when you transition your metadata schema to `MDInt`:

        MDNode *N = foo();
        bar(isa             <MDInt>(N->getOperand(0)));
        baz(cast            <MDInt>(N->getOperand(1)));
        bak(cast_or_null    <MDInt>(N->getOperand(2)));
        bat(dyn_cast        <MDInt>(N->getOperand(3)));
        bay(dyn_cast_or_null<MDInt>(N->getOperand(4)));

  - A `CallInst` -- specifically, intrinsic instructions -- can refer to
    metadata through a bridge called `MetadataAsValue`.  This is a
    subclass of `Value` where `getType()->isMetadataTy()`.

    `MetadataAsValue` is the *only* class that can legally refer to a
    `LocalAsMetadata`, which is a bridged form of non-`Constant` values
    like `Argument` and `Instruction`.  It can also refer to any other
    `Metadata` subclass.

(I'll break all your testcases in a follow-up commit, when I propagate
this change to assembly.)

which allow the use-list order to be recovered when round-tripping to
assembly.

This is the bulk of PR20515.

bb7967e614 LLParser: Handle BlockAddresses on-the-fly
Previously all `blockaddress()` constants were treated as forward
references.  They were resolved twice:  once at the end of the function
in question, and again at the end of the module.  Furthermore, if the
same blockaddress was referenced N times, the parser created N distinct
`GlobalVariable`s (one for each reference).

Instead, resolve all block addresses at the beginning of the function,
creating the standard `BasicBlock` forward references used for all other
basic block references.  After the function, all references can be
resolved immediately.  To check for the condition of parsing block
addresses from within the same function, I created a reference to the
current per-function-state in `BlockAddressPFS`.

Also, create only one forward-reference per basic block.  Because
forward references to block addresses are rare, the data structure here
shouldn't matter.  If somehow it does someday, this can be pretty easily
changed to a `DenseMap<std::pair<ValID, ValID>, GV>`.

This is part of PR20515.

da144ed5a2 Canonicalize header guards into a common format.
Add header guards to files that were missing guards. Remove #endif comments
as they don't seem common in LLVM (we can easily add them back if we decide
they're useful)

Changes made by clang-tidy with minor tweaks.

9f2d511fe1 Use "weak alias" instead of "alias weak"
Before this patch we had

@a = weak global ...
but
@b = alias weak ...

The patch changes aliases to look more like global variables.

Looking at some really old code suggests that the reason was that the old
bison based parser had a reduction for alias linkages and another one for
global variable linkages. Putting the alias first avoided the reduce/reduce
conflict.

The days of the old .ll parser are long gone. The new one parses just "linkage"
and a later check is responsible for deciding if a linkage is valid in a
given context.

000be1bc2f Add a dereferenceable attribute
This attribute indicates that the parameter or return pointer is
dereferenceable. Practically speaking, loads from such a pointer within the
associated byte range are safe to speculatively execute. Such pointer
parameters are common in source languages (C++ references, for example).

abf7854d05 IR: Add COMDATs to the IR
This new IR facility allows us to represent the object-file semantic of
a COMDAT group.

COMDATs allow us to tie together sections and make the inclusion of one
dependent on another. This is required to implement features like MS
ABI VFTables and optimizing away certain kinds of initialization in C++.

This functionality is only representable in COFF and ELF, Mach-O has no
similar mechanism.

e5f71f18e0 Allow aliases to be unnamed_addr.
Alias with unnamed_addr were in a strange state. It is stored in GlobalValue,
the language reference talks about "unnamed_addr aliases" but the verifier
was rejecting them.

It seems natural to allow unnamed_addr in aliases:

* It is a property of how it is accessed, not of the data itself.
* It is perfectly possible to write code that depends on the address
of an alias.

This patch then makes unname_addr legal for aliases. One side effect is that
the syntax changes for a corner case: In globals, unnamed_addr is now printed
before the address space.

acdb307db3 [pr19844] Add thread local mode to aliases.
This matches gcc's behavior. It also seems natural given that aliases
contain other properties that govern how it is accessed (linkage,
visibility, dll storage).

Clang still has to be updated to expose this feature to C.

e7e2ccb9e9 Add 'musttail' marker to call instructions
This is similar to the 'tail' marker, except that it guarantees that
tail call optimization will occur.  It also comes with convervative IR
verification rules that ensure that tail call optimization is possible.
