remove after evaluation. This is mostly useful for Objective-C metadata.
This is plumbing, so we don't have a use of it yet. More to come, etc.

This adds location info for all llvm_unreachable calls (which is a macro now) in
!NDEBUG builds.
In NDEBUG builds location info and the message is off (it only prints
"UREACHABLE executed").
llvm-svn: 75640
Make llvm_unreachable take an optional string, thus moving the cerr<< out of
line.
LLVM_UNREACHABLE is now a simple wrapper that makes the message go away for
NDEBUG builds.

The problem is replaceAllUsesWith asserts for type mismatch here. Try attached .bc with llvm-ld.
assert(New->getType() == getType() &&
"replaceAllUses of value with new value of different type!");
Since stack is always on address space zero, I don't think that type of GV in a different address space is ever going to match.
The other way is to allow replaceAllUsesWith to ignore address spaces while comparing types. (do we have a way to do that ?).
But then such an optimization may fail the entire idea of user wanting to place a variable into different memory space. The original idea of user might be to save on the stack space (data memory) and hence he asked the variable to be placed into different memory space (program memory). So the best bet here is to deny this optimization by checking
GV->getType()->getAddressSpace() == 0.

is that, for functions whose bodies are entirely guarded by an if-statement, it

Use FoldingSetNodeID to produce a good hash. This dramatically decreases run
times.
Emit thunks. This means that it can look at all functions regardless of what
the linkage is or if the address is taken, but unfortunately some small
functions can be even shorter than the thunk because our backend doesn't yet
realize it can just turn these into jumps. This means that this pass will
pessimize code on average.

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.

and extern_weak_odr. These are the same as the non-odr versions,
except that they indicate that the global will only be overridden
by an *equivalent* global. In C, a function with weak linkage can
be overridden by a function which behaves completely differently.
This means that IP passes have to skip weak functions, since any
deductions made from the function definition might be wrong, since
the definition could be replaced by something completely different
at link time. This is not allowed in C++, thanks to the ODR
(One-Definition-Rule): if a function is replaced by another at
link-time, then the new function must be the same as the original
function. If a language knows that a function or other global can
only be overridden by an equivalent global, it can give it the
weak_odr linkage type, and the optimizers will understand that it
is alright to make deductions based on the function body. The
code generators on the other hand map weak and weak_odr linkage
to the same thing.
llvm-svn: 66339
to find a tiny mouse hole to squeeze through, it struck
me that globals without a name can be considered internal
since they can't be referenced from outside the current
module. This patch makes GlobalOpt give them internal
linkage. Also done for aliases even though they always
have names, since in my opinion anonymous aliases should
be allowed for consistency with global variables and
functions. So if that happens one day, this code is ready!

If non constant local GV named A is used by a constant local GV named B (e.g. llvm.dbg.variable) and B is not used by anyone else then eliminate A as well as B.

There is now a direct way from value-use-iterator to incoming block in PHINode's API.
This way we avoid the iterator->index->iterator trip, and especially the costly

was it not very helpful, it was also wrong! The problem
is shown in the testcase: the alloca might be passed to
a nocapture callee which dereferences it and returns the
original pointer. But because it was a nocapture call we

In fact this also deletes those with linkonce linkage,

not have pointer type. In particular, it may
be the condition argument for a select or a GEP

possibilities.

the argument to be stored to an alloca by tracking uses
of the alloca. This occurs 4 times (out of 7121, 0.05%)
in MultiSource/Applications, so may not be worth it. On
the other hand, it is easy to do and fairly cheap. The
functions it helps are: W_addcom and W_addlit in spiff;
process_args (argv) in d (make_dparser); ercPixConcealIMB

functions that don't write can't leak a pointer except through
the return value, so a void readonly function is implicitly nocapture.

because it does not maintain a correct list

done via removeCallEdgeTo, it could have been
done via removeCallEdgeTo, which is an accident
