1. There is now a "PAListPtr" class, which is a smart pointer around
the underlying uniqued parameter attribute list object, and manages
its refcount. It is now impossible to mess up the refcount.
2. PAListPtr is now the main interface to the underlying object, and
the underlying object is now completely opaque.
3. Implementation details like SmallVector and FoldingSet are now no
longer part of the interface.
4. You can create a PAListPtr with an arbitrary sequence of
ParamAttrsWithIndex's, no need to make a SmallVector of a specific
size (you can just use an array or scalar or vector if you wish).
5. All the client code that had to check for a null pointer before
dereferencing the pointer is simplified to just access the
PAListPtr directly.
6. The interfaces for adding attrs to a list and removing them is a
bit simpler.
Phase #2 will rename some stuff (e.g. PAListPtr) and do other less
invasive changes.

drop attributes on varargs call arguments. Also, it could generate
invalid IR if the transformed call already had the 'nest' attribute
somewhere (this can never happen for code coming from llvm-gcc,
but it's a theoretical possibility). Fix both problems.

parameter, even if it is a varargs function. Do
allow attributes on the varargs part of a call,
but not beyond the last argument. Only allow
selected attributes to be on the varargs part of
a call (currently only 'byval' is allowed). The
reasoning here is that most attributes, eg inreg,
simply make no sense here.
llvm-svn: 45887
direct calls bails out unless caller and callee have essentially
equivalent parameter attributes. This is illogical - the callee's
attributes should be of no relevance here. Rework the logic, which
incidentally fixes a crash when removed arguments have attributes.
llvm-svn: 45658
return attributes on the floor. In the case of a call
to a varargs function where the varargs arguments are
being removed, any call attributes on those arguments
need to be dropped. I didn't do this because I plan to
make it illegal to have such attributes (see next patch).
With this change, compiling the gcc filter2 eh test at -O0
and then running opt -std-compile-opts on it results in
a correctly working program (compiling at -O1 or higher
results in the test failing due to a problem with how we
output eh info into the IR).
llvm-svn: 45285
calls 'nounwind'. It is important for correct C++
exception handling that nounwind markings do not get
lost, so this transformation is actually needed for
correctness.

the function type, instead they belong to functions
and function calls. This is an updated and slightly
corrected version of Reid Spencer's original patch.
The only known problem is that auto-upgrading of
bitcode files doesn't seem to work properly (see
test/Bitcode/AutoUpgradeIntrinsics.ll). Hopefully
a bitcode guru (who might that be? :) ) will fix it.
llvm-svn: 44359
trivial difference in function attributes, allow calls to it to
be converted to direct calls. Based on a patch by Török Edwin.
While there, move the various lists of mutually incompatible
parameters etc out of the verifier and into ParameterAttributes.h.
llvm-svn: 44315
Make ParamAttrsList objects unique. You can no longer directly create or
destroy them but instead must go through the ParamAttrsList::get()
interface.
llvm-svn: 36327
small. Since it doesn't cost much to have 2 more (8 bytes), but not having
them would require a malloc as soon as the third one is needed. Setting
the default to 4 delays the malloc until the 5th parameter attribute.

* Allow attributes to be added and removed singly or jointly so that in
the future something like -pruneh can manipulate them more easily.
* Move functions generally only useful for LLVM internals to the end of
the accessors list instead of the beginning.
