callee will not introduce any new aliases of that pointer.
The attributes had all bits allocated already, so I decided to collapse
alignment. Alignment was previously stored as a 16-bit integer from bits 16 to
32 of the attribute, but it was required to be a power of 2. Now it's stored in
log2 encoded form in five bits from 16 to 21. That gives us 11 more bits of
space.
You may have already noticed that you only need four bits to encode a 16-bit
power of two, so why five bits? Because the AsmParser accepted 32-bit
alignments, even though we couldn't store them (they were silently discarded).
Now we can store them in memory, but not in the bitcode.
The bitcode format was already storing these as 64-bit VBR integers. So, the
bitcode format stays the same, keeping the alignment values stored as 16 bit
raw values. There's some hideous code in the reader and writer that deals with
this, waiting to be ripped out the moment we run out of bits again and have to
replace the parameter attributes table encoding.

pass this info through from CallInst. Use it to
implement sseregparm returns on X86. Remove
X86_ssecall calling convention.

Remove the GetResultInst instruction. It is still accepted in LLVM assembly
and bitcode, where it is now auto-upgraded to ExtractValueInst. Also, remove
support for return instructions with multiple values. These are auto-upgraded
to use InsertValueInst instructions.
The IRBuilder still accepts multiple-value returns, and auto-upgrades them
to InsertValueInst instructions.

instructions and constant expressions.
Note that this does not yet include CodeGen support.

in some cases on Darwin, so we need both. The intent
is that "common" will behave identically to "weak" unless
somebody changes their target to do something else.
No functional change as yet.

regions of memory that have a target specific relationship, as described in the
Embedded C Technical Report.
This also implements the 2007-12-11-AddressSpaces test,
which demonstrates how address space attributes can be used in LLVM IR.
In addition, this patch changes the bitcode signature for stores (in a backwards
compatible manner), such that the pointer type, rather than the pointee type, is
encoded. This permits type information in the pointer (e.g. address space) to be
preserved for stores.
LangRef updates are forthcoming.

methods are new to Function:
bool hasCollector() const;
const std::string &getCollector() const;
void setCollector(const std::string &);
void clearCollector();
The assembly representation is as such:
define void @f() gc "shadow-stack" { ...
The implementation uses an on-the-side table to map Functions to
collector names, such that there is no overhead. A StringPool is
further used to unique collector names, which are extremely
likely to be unique per process.
