https://reviews.llvm.org/D95745 introduced a new `unwind` keyword for inline assembler expressions. Inline asms marked with the `unwind` keyword allows stack unwinding from inline assembly because the compiler emits unwinding information ("around" the inline asm) as it would for calls/invokes. Unwinding the stack from within non-unwind inline asm may cause UB.

SwiftTailCC has a different set of requirements than the C calling convention
for a tail call. The exact argument sequence doesn't have to match, but fewer
ABI-affecting attributes are allowed.
Also make sure the musttail diagnostic triggers if a musttail call isn't
actually a tail call.
There can be a need for some optimizations to get (base, offset)
for any GC pointer. The base can be calculated by generating
needed instructions as it is done by the
RewriteStatepointsForGC::findBasePointer() function. The offset
can be calculated in the same way. Though to not expose the base
calculation and to make the offset calculation as simple as
ptrtoint(derived_ptr) - ptrtoint(base_ptr), which is illegal
outside RS4GC, this patch introduces 2 intrinsics:
@llvm.experimental.gc.get.pointer.base(%derived_ptr)
@llvm.experimental.gc.get.pointer.offset(%derived_ptr)
These intrinsics are inlined by RS4GC along with generation of
statepoint sequences.
With these new intrinsics the GC parseable lowering for atomic
memcpy intrinsics (6ec2c5e402a724ba99bce82a9cac7a3006d660f4)
could be implemented as a separate pass.

LLVM_DEFINITIONS is a string variable containing a list of arguments
to pass to the compiler. When CMake's add_definitions is passed a
string variable, this is interpreted as one argument. To make it
behave properly, the string variable needs to be split into a list.
Despite the fact that add_definitions isn't supposed to be used like
the LLVM docs recommended, it worked fine in practice in many cases.
If the first argument in LLVM_DEFINITIONS is of the form -DFOO=42
instead of plain -DFOO, the rest of the string is treated as value
to this define. I.e. if LLVM_DEFINITIONS consists of `-DFOO=42 -DBAR`,
CMake ended up passing `-DFOO="42 -DBAR"` to the compiler.
See https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmakissues/22162
for discussion on the matter.
Changing LLVM_DEFINITIONS to be a list variable would possibly be
more disruptive; instead keep the variable defined as before but
change the recommendation for how to use it. Then projects using it
can gradually be updated to follow the new recommendation.

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.

...
```
What does it tell us?
So wait, it can only execute ~3 x86 AVX YMM PXOR zero-idioms per cycle?
That doesn't seem right. That's even less than there are pipes supporting this type of op.
Now, second example:
```
$ ./bin/llvm-exegesis --mode=inverse_throughput --snippets-file=/tmp/snippet.s --num-repetitions=1000000 --repetition-mode=loop
Check generated assembly with: /usr/bin/objdump -d /tmp/snippet-2418b5.o

assembled_snippet: 49B80800000000000000C5FDEFC0C5FDEFC04983C0FF75F2C3
...
```
Now that's just worse. Due to the looping, the throughput completely plummeted,
and now we can only do a single instruction/cycle!?
That's not great.
And final example:
```
$ ./bin/llvm-exegesis --mode=inverse_throughput --snippets-file=/tmp/snippet.s --num-repetitions=1000000 --repetition-mode=loop --loop-body-size=1000
Check generated assembly with: /usr/bin/objdump -d /tmp/snippet-c402e2.o

assembled_snippet: 49B80800000000000000C5FDEFC0C5FDEFC04983C0FF75F2C3
...
```
So if we merge the previous two approaches, do duplicate this single-instruction snippet 1000x
(loop-body-size/instruction count in snippet), and run a loop with 1000 iterations
over that duplicated/unrolled snippet, the measured throughput goes through the roof,
up to 5.9 instructions/cycle, which finally tells us that this idiom is zero-cycle!

This patch is the Part-1 (FE Clang) implementation of HW Exception handling.
This new feature adds the support of Hardware Exception for Microsoft Windows
SEH (Structured Exception Handling).
This is the first step of this project; only X86_64 target is enabled in this patch.
Compiler options:
For clang-cl.exe, the option is -EHa, the same as MSVC.
For clang.exe, the extra option is -fasync-exceptions,
plus -triple x86_64-windows -fexceptions and -fcxx-exceptions as usual.
NOTE:: Without the -EHa or -fasync-exceptions, this patch is a NO-DIFF change.
The rules for C code:
For C-code, one way (MSVC approach) to achieve SEH -EHa semantic is to follow
three rules:
* First, no exception can move in or out of _try region., i.e., no "potential
faulty instruction can be moved across _try boundary.
* Second, the order of exceptions for instructions 'directly' under a _try
must be preserved (not applied to those in callees).
* Finally, global states (local/global/heap variables) that can be read
outside of _try region must be updated in memory (not just in register)
before the subsequent exception occurs.
The impact to C++ code:
Although SEH is a feature for C code, -EHa does have a profound effect on C++
side. When a C++ function (in the same compilation unit with option -EHa ) is
called by a SEH C function, a hardware exception occurs in C++ code can also
be handled properly by an upstream SEH _try-handler or a C++ catch(...).
As such, when that happens in the middle of an object's life scope, the dtor
must be invoked the same way as C++ Synchronous Exception during unwinding
process.
Design:
A natural way to achieve the rules above in LLVM today is to allow an EH edge
added on memory/computation instruction (previous iload/istore idea) so that
exception path is modeled in Flow graph preciously. However, tracking every
single memory instruction and potential faulty instruction can create many
Invokes, complicate flow graph and possibly result in negative performance
impact for downstream optimization and code generation. Making all
optimizations be aware of the new semantic is also substantial.
This design does not intend to model exception path at instruction level.
Instead, the proposed design tracks and reports EH state at BLOCK-level to
reduce the complexity of flow graph and minimize the performance-impact on CPP
code under -EHa option.
One key element of this design is the ability to compute State number at
block-level. Our algorithm is based on the following rationales:
A _try scope is always a SEME (Single Entry Multiple Exits) region as jumping
into a _try is not allowed. The single entry must start with a seh_try_begin()
invoke with a correct State number that is the initial state of the SEME.
Through control-flow, state number is propagated into all blocks. Side exits
marked by seh_try_end() will unwind to parent state based on existing
SEHUnwindMap[].
Note side exits can ONLY jump into parent scopes (lower state number).
Thus, when a block succeeds various states from its predecessors, the lowest
State triumphs others. If some exits flow to unreachable, propagation on those
paths terminate, not affecting remaining blocks.
For CPP code, object lifetime region is usually a SEME as SEH _try.
However there is one rare exception: jumping into a lifetime that has Dtor but
has no Ctor is warned, but allowed:
Warning: jump bypasses variable with a non-trivial destructor
In that case, the region is actually a MEME (multiple entry multiple exits).
Our solution is to inject a eha_scope_begin() invoke in the side entry block to
ensure a correct State.
Implementation:
Part-1: Clang implementation described below.
Two intrinsic are created to track CPP object scopes; eha_scope_begin() and eha_scope_end().
_scope_begin() is immediately added after ctor() is called and EHStack is pushed.
So it must be an invoke, not a call. With that it's also guaranteed an
EH-cleanup-pad is created regardless whether there exists a call in this scope.
_scope_end is added before dtor(). These two intrinsics make the computation of
Block-State possible in downstream code gen pass, even in the presence of
ctor/dtor inlining.
Two intrinsic, seh_try_begin() and seh_try_end(), are added for C-code to mark
_try boundary and to prevent from exceptions being moved across _try boundary.
All memory instructions inside a _try are considered as 'volatile' to assure
2nd and 3rd rules for C-code above. This is a little sub-optimized. But it's
acceptable as the amount of code directly under _try is very small.
Part-2 (will be in Part-2 patch): LLVM implementation described below.
For both C++ & C-code, the state of each block is computed at the same place in
BE (WinEHPreparing pass) where all other EH tables/maps are calculated.
In addition to _scope_begin & _scope_end, the computation of block state also
rely on the existing State tracking code (UnwindMap and InvokeStateMap).
For both C++ & C-code, the state of each block with potential trap instruction
is marked and reported in DAG Instruction Selection pass, the same place where
the state for -EHsc (synchronous exceptions) is done.
If the first instruction in a reported block scope can trap, a Nop is injected
before this instruction. This nop is needed to accommodate LLVM Windows EH
implementation, in which the address in IPToState table is offset by +1.
(note the purpose of that is to ensure the return address of a call is in the
same scope as the call address.
The handler for catch(...) for -EHa must handle HW exception. So it is
'adjective' flag is reset (it cannot be IsStdDotDot (0x40) that only catches
C++ exceptions).
Suppress push/popTerminate() scope (from noexcept/noTHrow) so that HW
exceptions can be passed through.

Swift's new concurrency features are going to require guaranteed tail calls so
that they don't consume excessive amounts of stack space. This would normally
mean "tailcc", but there are also Swift-specific ABI desires that don't
naturally go along with "tailcc" so this adds another calling convention that's
the combination of "swiftcc" and "tailcc".
Support is added for AArch64 and X86 for now.
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).
The opaque pointer type is essentially just a normal pointer type with a
null pointee type.
This also adds support for the opaque pointer type to the bitcode
reader/writer, as well as to textual IR.
To avoid confusion with existing pointer types, we disallow creating a
pointer to an opaque pointer.
Opaque pointer types should not be widely used at this point since many
parts of LLVM still do not support them. The next steps are to add some
very simple use cases of opaque pointers to make sure they work, then
start pretending that all pointers are opaque pointers and see what
breaks.

The most important part of this change is the LangRef wording.

When we pass a AArch64 Homogeneous Floating-Point
Aggregate (HFA) argument with increased alignment
requirements, for example
struct S {
__attribute__ ((__aligned__(16))) double v[4];
};
Clang uses `[4 x double]` for the parameter, which is passed
on the stack at alignment 8, whereas it should be at
alignment 16, following Rule C.4 in
AAPCS (https://github.com/ARM-software/abi-aa/blob/master/aapcs64/aapcs64.rst#642parameter-passing-rules)
Currently we don't have a way to express in LLVM IR the
alignment requirements of the function arguments. The align
attribute is applicable to pointers only, and only for some
special ways of passing arguments (e..g byval). When
implementing AAPCS32/AAPCS64, clang resorts to dubious hacks
of coercing to types, which naturally have the needed
alignment. We don't have enough types to cover all the
cases, though.
This patch introduces a new use of the stackalign attribute
to control stack slot alignment, when and if an argument is
passed in memory.
The attribute align is left as an optimizer hint - it still
applies to pointer types only and pertains to the content of
the pointer, whereas the alignment of the pointer itself is
determined by the stackalign attribute.
For byval arguments, the stackalign attribute assumes the
role, previously perfomed by align, falling back to align if
stackalign` is absent.
On the clang side, when passing arguments using the "direct"
style (cf. `ABIArgInfo::Kind`), now we can optionally
specify an alignment, which is emitted as the new
`stackalign` attribute.

RVV intrinsics has new overloading rule, please see
82aac7dad4
Changed:
1. Rename `generic` to `overloaded` because the new rule is not using C11 generic.
2. Change HasGeneric to HasNoMaskedOverloaded because all masked operations
support overloading api.
3. Add more overloaded tests due to overloading rule changed.

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 adds me as a Google representative for the LLVM security group.
This was proposed, discussed, and voted on in the differential revision

In order to test the preservation of the original Debug Info metadata
in your projects, a front end option could be very useful, since users
usually report that a concrete entity (e.g. variable x, or function fn2())
is missing debug info. The [0] is an example of running the utility
on GDB Project.
This depends on: D82546 and D82545.

The option `--prefix-strip` is only used when `--prefix` is not empty.
It removes N initial directories from absolute paths before adding the
prefix.
This matches GNU's objdump behavior.

This patch adds a new llvm.experimental.stepvector intrinsic,
which takes no arguments and returns a linear integer sequence of
values of the form <0, 1, ...>. It is primarily intended for
scalable vectors, although it will work for fixed width vectors
too. It is intended that later patches will make use of this
new intrinsic when vectorising induction variables, currently only
supported for fixed width. I've added a new CreateStepVector
method to the IRBuilder, which will generate a call to this
intrinsic for scalable vectors and fall back on creating a
ConstantVector for fixed width.
For scalable vectors this intrinsic is lowered to a new ISD node
called STEP_VECTOR, which takes a single constant integer argument
as the step. During lowering this argument is set to a value of 1.
The reason for this additional argument at the codegen level is
because in future patches we will introduce various generic DAG
combines such as
mul step_vector(1), 2 -> step_vector(2)
add step_vector(1), step_vector(1) -> step_vector(2)
shl step_vector(1), 1 -> step_vector(2)
etc.
that encourage a canonical format for all targets. This hopefully
means all other targets supporting scalable vectors can benefit
from this too.
I've added cost model tests for both fixed width and scalable
vectors:
llvm/test/Analysis/CostModel/AArch64/neon-stepvector.ll
llvm/test/Analysis/CostModel/AArch64/sve-stepvector.ll
as well as codegen lowering tests for fixed width and scalable
vectors:
llvm/test/CodeGen/AArch64/neon-stepvector.ll
llvm/test/CodeGen/AArch64/sve-stepvector.ll

There is a bunch of similar bitfield extraction code throughout *ISelDAGToDAG.
E.g, ARMISelDAGToDAG, AArch64ISelDAGToDAG, and AMDGPUISelDAGToDAG all contain
code that matches a bitfield extract from an and + right shift.
Rather than duplicating code in the same way, this adds two opcodes:
- G_UBFX (unsigned bitfield extract)
- G_SBFX (signed bitfield extract)
They work like this
```
%x = G_UBFX %y, %lsb, %width
```
Where `lsb` and `width` are
- The least-significant bit of the extraction
- The width of the extraction
This will extract `width` bits from `%y`, starting at `lsb`. G_UBFX zero-extends
the result, while G_SBFX sign-extends the result.
This should allow us to use the combiner to match the bitfield extraction
patterns rather than duplicating pattern-matching code in each target.

There are a couple of caveats when it comes to how vectors are
stored to memory, and thereby also how bitcast between vector
and integer types work, in LLVM IR. Specially in relation to
endianess. This patch is an attempt to document such things.

This requires changes to TableGen files and some C++ files due to
incompatible multiclass template arguments that slipped through
before the improved handling.
This patch adds support for intrinsic overloading on unnamed types.
This fixes PR38117 and PR48340 and will also be needed for the Full Restrict Patches (D68484).
The main problem is that the intrinsic overloading name mangling is using 's_s' for unnamed types.
This can result in identical intrinsic mangled names for different function prototypes.
This patch changes this by adding a '.XXXXX' to the intrinsic mangled name when at least one of the types is based on an unnamed type, ensuring that we get a unique name.
Implementation details:
- The mapping is created on demand and kept in Module.
- It also checks for existing clashes and recycles potentially existing prototypes and declarations.
- Because of extra data in Module, Intrinsic::getName needs an extra Module* argument and, for speed, an optional FunctionType* argument.
- I still kept the original two-argument 'Intrinsic::getName' around which keeps the original behavior (providing the base name).
-- Main reason is that I did not want to change the LLVMIntrinsicGetName version, as I don't know how acceptable such a change is
-- The current situation already has a limitation. So that should not get worse with this patch.
- Intrinsic::getDeclaration and the verifier are now using the new version.
Other notes:
- As far as I see, this should not suffer from stability issues. The count is only added for prototypes depending on at least one anonymous struct
- The initial count starts from 0 for each intrinsic mangled name.
- In case of name clashes, existing prototypes are remembered and reused when that makes sense.

This documents current regular LLVM sync-ups that are happening in the
Getting Involved section.
I hope this gives a bit more visibility to regular sync-ups that are
happening in the LLVM community, documenting another way communication
in the community happens.
Of course the downside is that this is another location that sync-up
metadata needs to be maintained. That being said, the structure as
proposed means that no changes are needed once a new sync-up is added,
apart from maybe removing the entry once it becomes clear that that
particular sync-up series is completely cancelled.
Documenting a few pointers on how current sync-ups happen may also
encourage others to organize useful sync-ups on specific topics.
I've started with adding the sync-ups I'm aware of. There's a good
chance I've missed some.
If most sync-ups end up having a public google calendar, we could also
create and maintain a public google calendar that shows all events
happening in the LLVM community, including dev meetings, sync-ups,
socials, etc - assuming that would be valuable.

Lit as it exists today has three hacks that allow users to run tests earlier:
1) An entire test suite can set the `is_early` boolean.
2) A very recently introduced "early_tests" feature.
3) The `--incremental` flag forces failing tests to run first.
All of these approaches have problems.
1) The `is_early` feature was until very recently undocumented. Nevertheless it still lacks testing and is a imprecise way of optimizing test starting times.
2) The `early_tests` feature requires manual updates and doesn't scale.
3) `--incremental` is undocumented, untested, and it requires modifying the *source* file system by "touching" the file. This "touch" based approach is arguably a hack because it confuses editors (because it looks like the test was modified behind the back of the editor) and "touching" the test source file doesn't work if the test suite is read only from the perspective of `lit` (via advanced filesystem/build tricks).
This patch attempts to simplify and address all of the above problems.
This patch formalizes, documents, tests, and defaults lit to recording the execution time of tests and then reordering all tests during the next execution. By reordering the tests, high core count machines run faster, sometimes significantly so.
This patch also always runs failing tests first, which is a positive user experience win for those that didn't know about the hidden `--incremental` flag.
Finally, if users want, they can _optionally_ commit the test timing data (or a subset thereof) back to the repository to accelerate bots and first-time runs of the test suite.

Recently we improved the lowering of low overhead loops and tail
predicated loops, but concentrated first on the DLS do style loops. This
extends those improvements over to the WLS while loops, improving the
chance of lowering them successfully. To do this the lowering has to
change a little as the instructions are terminators that produce a value
- something that needs to be treated carefully.
Lowering starts at the Hardware Loop pass, inserting a new
llvm.test.start.loop.iterations that produces both an i1 to control the
loop entry and an i32 similar to the llvm.start.loop.iterations
intrinsic added for do loops. This feeds into the loop phi, properly
gluing the values together:
%wls = call { i32, i1 } @llvm.test.start.loop.iterations.i32(i32 %div)
%wls0 = extractvalue { i32, i1 } %wls, 0
%wls1 = extractvalue { i32, i1 } %wls, 1
br i1 %wls1, label %loop.ph, label %loop.exit
...
loop:
%lsr.iv = phi i32 [ %wls0, %loop.ph ], [ %iv.next, %loop ]
..
%iv.next = call i32 @llvm.loop.decrement.reg.i32(i32 %lsr.iv, i32 1)
%cmp = icmp ne i32 %iv.next, 0
br i1 %cmp, label %loop, label %loop.exit
The llvm.test.start.loop.iterations need to be lowered through ISel
lowering as a pair of WLS and WLSSETUP nodes, which each get converted
to t2WhileLoopSetup and t2WhileLoopStart Pseudos. This helps prevent
t2WhileLoopStart from being a terminator that produces a value,
something difficult to control at that stage in the pipeline. Instead
the t2WhileLoopSetup produces the value of LR (essentially acting as a
lr = subs rn, 0), t2WhileLoopStart consumes that lr value (the Bcc).
These are then converted into a single t2WhileLoopStartLR at the same
point as t2DoLoopStartTP and t2LoopEndDec. Otherwise we revert the loop
to prevent them from progressing further in the pipeline. The
t2WhileLoopStartLR is a single instruction that takes a GPR and produces
LR, similar to the WLS instruction.
%1:gprlr = t2WhileLoopStartLR %0:rgpr, %bb.3
t2B %bb.1
...
bb.2.loop:
%2:gprlr = PHI %1:gprlr, %bb.1, %3:gprlr, %bb.2
...
%3:gprlr = t2LoopEndDec %2:gprlr, %bb.2
t2B %bb.3
The t2WhileLoopStartLR can then be treated similar to the other low
overhead loop pseudos, eventually being lowered to a WLS providing the
branches are within range.
