Continuing from D105763, this allows placing certain properties
about attributes in the TableGen definition. In particular, we
store whether an attribute applies to fn/param/ret (or a combination
thereof). This information is used by the Verifier, as well as the
ForceFunctionAttrs pass. I also plan to use this in LLParser,
which also duplicates info on which attributes are valid where.
This keeps metadata about attributes in one place, and makes it
more likely that it stays in sync, rather than in various
functions spread across the codebase.

The noprofile function attribute is meant to prevent compiler
instrumentation from being inserted into a function. Inlining may defeat
the developer's intent. If the caller and callee don't either BOTH have
the attribute or BOTH lack the attribute, suppress inline substitution.
This matches behavior being proposed in GCC:

We really ought to support no_sanitize("coverage") in line with other
sanitizers. This came up again in discussions on the Linux-kernel
mailing lists, because we currently do workarounds using objtool to
remove coverage instrumentation. Since that support is only on x86, to
continue support coverage instrumentation on other architectures, we
must support selectively disabling coverage instrumentation via function
attributes.
Unfortunately, for SanitizeCoverage, it has not been implemented as a
sanitizer via fsanitize= and associated options in Sanitizers.def, but
rolls its own option fsanitize-coverage. This meant that we never got
"automatic" no_sanitize attribute support.
Implement no_sanitize attribute support by special-casing the string
"coverage" in the NoSanitizeAttr implementation. To keep the feature as
unintrusive to existing IR generation as possible, define a new negative
function attribute NoSanitizeCoverage to propagate the information
through to the instrumentation pass.

This extends any frame record created in the function to include that
parameter, passed in X22.
The new record looks like [X22, FP, LR] in memory, and FP is stored with 0b0001
in bits 63:60 (CodeGen assumes they are 0b0000 in normal operation). The effect
of this is that tools walking the stack should expect to see one of three
values there:
* 0b0000 => a normal, non-extended record with just [FP, LR]
* 0b0001 => the extended record [X22, FP, LR]
* 0b1111 => kernel space, and a non-extended record.
All other values are currently reserved.
If compiling for arm64e this context pointer is address-discriminated with the
discriminator 0xc31a and the DB (process-specific) key.
There is also an "i8** @llvm.swift.async.context.addr()" intrinsic providing
front-ends access to this slot (and forcing its creation initialized to nullptr
if necessary).
I think byval/sret and the others are close to being able to rip out
the code to support the missing type case. A lot of this code is
shared with inalloca, so catch this up to the others so that can
happen.
This attribute represents the minimum and maximum values vscale can
take. For now this attribute is not hooked up to anything during

considered stable.

Clang FE currently has hot/cold function attribute. But we only have
cold function attribute in LLVM IR.
This patch adds support of hot function attribute to LLVM IR. This
attribute will be used in setting function section prefix/suffix.
Currently .hot and .unlikely suffix only are added in PGO (Sample PGO)
compilation (through isFunctionHotInCallGraph and
isFunctionColdInCallGraph).
This patch changes the behavior. The new behavior is:
(1) If the user annotates a function as hot or isFunctionHotInCallGraph
is true, this function will be marked as hot. Otherwise,
(2) If the user annotates a function as cold or
isFunctionColdInCallGraph is true, this function will be marked as
cold.
The changes are:
(1) user annotated function attribute will used in setting function
section prefix/suffix.
(2) hot attribute overwrites profile count based hotness.
(3) profile count based hotness overwrite user annotated cold attribute.
The intention for these changes is to provide the user a way to mark
certain function as hot in cases where training input is hard to cover
all the hot functions.

It's currently ambiguous in IR whether the source language explicitly
did not want a stack a stack protector (in C, via function attribute
no_stack_protector) or doesn't care for any given function.
It's common for code that manipulates the stack via inline assembly or
that has to set up its own stack canary (such as the Linux kernel) would
like to avoid stack protectors in certain functions. In this case, we've
been bitten by numerous bugs where a callee with a stack protector is
inlined into an __attribute__((__no_stack_protector__)) caller, which
generally breaks the caller's assumptions about not having a stack
protector. LTO exacerbates the issue.
While developers can avoid this by putting all no_stack_protector
functions in one translation unit together and compiling those with
-fno-stack-protector, it's generally not very ergonomic or as
ergonomic as a function attribute, and still doesn't work for LTO. See also:

Typically, when inlining a callee into a caller, the caller will be
upgraded in its level of stack protection (see adjustCallerSSPLevel()).
By adding an explicit attribute in the IR when the function attribute is
used in the source language, we can now identify such cases and prevent
inlining. Block inlining when the callee and caller differ in the case that one
contains `nossp` when the other has `ssp`, `sspstrong`, or `sspreq`.

Previously this was incorrectly handling linking of the contained
type, so this merges the fixes from D88973.
This reverts commit 55c4ff91bd820d72014f63dcf7f3d5a0d3397986.
Issues were introduced as discussed in https://reviews.llvm.org/D88241
where this change made previous bugs in the linker and BitCodeWriter
visible.
Make the corresponding change that was made for byval in
b7141207a483d39b99c2b4da4eb3bb591eca9e1a. Like byval, this requires a
bulk update of the test IR tests to include the type before this can
be mandatory.
This allows tracking the in-memory type of a pointer argument to a
function for ABI purposes. This is essentially a stripped down version
of byval to remove some of the stack-copy implications in its
definition.
This includes the base IR changes, and some tests for places where it
should be treated similarly to byval. Codegen support will be in a
future patch.
My original attempt at solving some of these problems was to repurpose
byval with a different address space from the stack. However, it is
technically permitted for the callee to introduce a write to the
argument, although nothing does this in reality. There is also talk of
removing and replacing the byval attribute, so a new attribute would
need to take its place anyway.
This is intended avoid some optimization issues with the current
handling of aggregate arguments, as well as fixes inflexibilty in how
frontends can specify the kernel ABI. The most honest representation
of the amdgpu_kernel convention is to expose all kernel arguments as
loads from constant memory. Today, these are raw, SSA Argument values
and codegen is responsible for turning these into loads.
Background:
There currently isn't a satisfactory way to represent how arguments
for the amdgpu_kernel calling convention are passed. In reality,
arguments are passed in a single, flat, constant memory buffer
implicitly passed to the function. It is also illegal to call this
function in the IR, and this is only ever invoked by a driver of some
kind.
It does not make sense to have a stack passed parameter in this
context as is implied by byval. It is never valid to write to the
kernel arguments, as this would corrupt the inputs seen by other
dispatches of the kernel. These argumets are also not in the same
address space as the stack, so a copy is needed to an alloca. From a
source C-like language, the kernel parameters are invisible.
Semantically, a copy is always required from the constant argument
memory to a mutable variable.
The current clang calling convention lowering emits raw values,
including aggregates into the function argument list, since using
byval would not make sense. This has some unfortunate consequences for
the optimizer. In the aggregate case, we end up with an aggregate
store to alloca, which both SROA and instcombine turn into a store of
each aggregate field. The optimizer never pieces this back together to
see that this is really just a copy from constant memory, so we end up
stuck with expensive stack usage.
This also means the backend dictates the alignment of arguments, and
arbitrarily picks the LLVM IR ABI type alignment. By allowing an
explicit alignment, frontends can make better decisions. For example,
there's real no advantage to an aligment higher than 4, so a frontend
could choose to compact the argument layout. Similarly, there is a
high penalty to using an alignment lower than 4, so a frontend could
opt into more padding for small arguments.
Another design consideration is when it is appropriate to expose the
fact that these arguments are all really passed in adjacent
memory. Currently we have a late IR optimization pass in codegen to
rewrite the kernel argument values into explicit loads to enable
vectorization. In most programs, unrelated argument loads can be
merged together. However, exposing this property directly from the
frontend has some disadvantages. We still need a way to track the
original argument sizes and alignments to report to the driver. I find
using some side-channel, metadata mechanism to track this
unappealing. If the kernel arguments were exposed as a single buffer
to begin with, alias analysis would be unaware that the padding bits
betewen arguments are meaningless. Another family of problems is there
are still some gaps in replacing all of the available parameter
attributes with metadata equivalents once lowered to loads.
The immediate plan is to start using this new attribute to handle all
aggregate argumets for kernels. Long term, it makes sense to migrate
all kernel arguments, including scalars, to be passed indirectly in
the same manner.
Additional context is in D79744.
The `noundef` attribute indicates an argument or return value which
may never have an undef value representation.
This patch allows LLVM to parse the attribute.

When sampleFDO is enabled, people may expect they can use
-fno-profile-sample-use to opt-out using sample profile for a certain file.
That could be either for debugging purpose or for performance tuning purpose.
However, when thinlto is enabled, if a function in file A compiled with
-fno-profile-sample-use is imported to another file B compiled with
-fprofile-sample-use, the inlined copy of the function in file B may still
get its profile annotated.
The inconsistency may even introduce profile unused warning because if the
target is not compiled with explicit debug information flag, the function
in file A won't have its debug information enabled (debug information will
be enabled implicitly only when -fprofile-sample-use is used). After it is
imported into file B which is compiled with -fprofile-sample-use, profile
annotation for the outline copy of the function will fail because the
function has no debug information, and that will trigger profile unused
warning.
We add a new attribute use-sample-profile to control whether a function
will use its sample profile no matter for its outline or inline copies.
That will make the behavior of -fno-profile-sample-use consistent.

Summary:
UBSan wants to detect when unreachable code is actually reached, so it
adds instrumentation before every `unreachable` instruction. However,
the optimizer will remove code after calls to functions marked with
`noreturn`. To avoid this UBSan removes `noreturn` from both the call
instruction as well as from the function itself. Unfortunately, ASan
relies on this annotation to unpoison the stack by inserting calls to
`_asan_handle_no_return` before `noreturn` functions. This is important
for functions that do not return but access the the stack memory, e.g.,
unwinder functions *like* `longjmp` (`longjmp` itself is actually
"double-proofed" via its interceptor). The result is that when ASan and
UBSan are combined, the `noreturn` attributes are missing and ASan
cannot unpoison the stack, so it has false positives when stack
unwinding is used.
Changes:
# UBSan now adds the `expect_noreturn` attribute whenever it removes
the `noreturn` attribute from a function
# ASan additionally checks for the presence of this attribute
Generated code:
```
call void @__asan_handle_no_return // Additionally inserted to avoid false positives
call void @longjmp
call void @__asan_handle_no_return
call void @__ubsan_handle_builtin_unreachable
unreachable
```
The second call to `__asan_handle_no_return` is redundant. This will be
cleaned up in a follow-up patch.

Load Hardening.
Wires up the existing pass to work with a proper IR attribute rather
than just a hidden/internal flag. The internal flag continues to work
for now, but I'll likely remove it soon.
Most of the churn here is adding the IR attribute. I talked about this
Kristof Beyls and he seemed at least initially OK with this direction.
The idea of using a full attribute here is that we *do* expect at least
some forms of this for other architectures. There isn't anything
*inherently* x86-specific about this technique, just that we only have
an implementation for x86 at the moment.
While we could potentially expose this as a Clang-level attribute as
well, that seems like a good question to defer for the moment as it
isn't 100% clear whether that or some other programmer interface (or
both?) would be best. We'll defer the programmer interface side of this
for now, but at least get to the point where the feature can be enabled
without relying on implementation details.
This also allows us to do something that was really hard before: we can
enable *just* the indirect call retpolines when using SLH. For x86, we
don't have any other way to mitigate indirect calls. Other architectures
may take a different approach of course, and none of this is surfaced to
user-level flags.
