this was a tree of hashtables, and a query recursed into the table for the immediate dominator ad infinitum
if the initial lookup failed. This led to really bad performance on tall, narrow CFGs.
We can instead replace it with what is conceptually a multimap of value numbers to leaders (actually
represented by a hashtable with a list of Value*'s as the value type), and then
determine which leader from that set to use very cheaply thanks to the DFS numberings maintained by
DominatorTree. Because there are typically few duplicates of a given value, this scan tends to be
quite fast. Additionally, we use a custom linked list and BumpPtr allocation to avoid any unnecessary
allocation in representing the value-side of the multimap.
This change brings with it a 15% (!) improvement in the total running time of GVN on 403.gcc, which I
think is pretty good considering that includes all the "real work" being done by MemDep as well.
The one downside to this approach is that we can no longer use GVN to perform simple conditional progation,
but that seems like an acceptable loss since we now have LVI and CorrelatedValuePropagation to pick up
the slack. If you see conditional propagation that's not happening, please file bugs against LVI or CVP.

offload the work to hasConstantValue rather than do something more
complicated (such handling mutually recursive phis) because (1) it is
not clear it is worth it; and (2) if it is worth it, maybe such logic
would be better placed in hasConstantValue. Adjust some GVN tests
which are now cleaned up much further (eg: all phi nodes are removed).

references. For example, this allows gvn to eliminate the load in
this example:
void foo(int n, int* p, int *q) {
p[0] = 0;
p[1] = 1;
if (n) {
*q = p[0];
}
}

AliasAnalysis implementation to NoAlias.
Update StandardCompileOpts.h and friends to explicitly request
BasicAliasAnalysis.
Update tests to explicitly request -basicaa.

Anyone interested in more general PRE would be better served by implementing it separately, to get real
anticipation calculation, etc.
llvm-svn: 115337
Splitting critical edges at the merge point only addressed part of the issue; it is also possible for non-post-domination
to occur when the path from the load to the merge has branches in it. Unfortunately, full anticipation analysis is
time-consuming, so for now approximate it. This is strictly more conservative than real anticipation, so we will miss
some cases that real PRE would allow, but we also no longer insert loads into paths where they didn't exist before. :-)
This is a very slight net positive on SPEC for me (0.5% on average). Most of the benchmarks are largely unaffected, but
when it pays off it pays off decently: 181.mcf improves by 4.5% on my machine.

to determine where to place PHIs by iteratively comparing reaching definitions
at each block. That was just plain wrong. This version now computes the
dominator tree within the subset of the CFG where PHIs may need to be placed,
and then places the PHIs in the iterated dominance frontier of each definition.
The rest of the patch is mostly the same, with a few more performance
improvements added in.

(what was I thinking?) and there's also a problem with LCSSA. I'll try again
later with fixes.

This was already being done in SSAUpdater::GetValueAtEndOfBlock so I've
just changed SSAUpdater to check for existing PHIs in both places.

wrong place. This would cause later queries to fail even when
they didn't involve phi trans.

add, there is no need to scan the world to find the same add again.
This invalidates the previous testcase, which wasn't wonderful anyway,
because it needed a run of instcombine to permute the use-lists in
just the right way to before GVN was run (so it was really fragile).
Not a big loss.

phi translation of complex expressions like &A[i+1]. This has the
following benefits:
1. The phi translation logic is all contained in its own class with
a strong interface and verification that it is self consistent.
2. The logic is more correct than before. Previously, if intermediate
expressions got PHI translated, we'd miss the update and scan for
the wrong pointers in predecessor blocks. @phi_trans2 is a testcase
for this.
3. We have a lot less code in memdep.
We can handle phi translation across blocks of things like @phi_trans3,
which is pretty insane :).
This patch should fix the miscompiles of 255.vortex, and I tested it
with a bootstrap of llvm-gcc, llvm-test and dejagnu of course.

where G[1] isn't live into the loop.
