such a way that debug info for symbols preserved even if symbols are
optimized away by the optimizer.
Add new special pass to remove debug info for such symbols.

Initial skeleton and SCEVUnknown lowering implemented,
the rest should come relatively quickly. Move testcase
to new directory.
Move pass to right before SimplifyLibCalls - which is
moved down a bit so we can take advantage of a few opts.

Checks on Demand algorithm which looks at arbitrary branches instead of loop
iterations. This is GSoC work by Andre Tavares with only editorial changes
applied!

GEPs (more than one non-zero index) into simple GEPs (at most one
non-zero index). In some simple experiments using this it's not
uncommon to see 3% overall code size wins, because it exposes
redundancies that can be eliminated, however it's tricky to use
because instcombine aggressively undoes the work that this pass does.

Update all analysis passes and transforms to treat free calls just like FreeInst.
Remove RaiseAllocations and all its tests since FreeInst no longer needs to be raised.

constants out of loops. These aren't covered by the regular LICM
pass, because in LLVM IR constants don't require separate
instructions. They're not always covered by the MachineLICM pass
either, because it doesn't know how to unfold folded constant-pool
loads. This is somewhat experimental at this point, and off by
default.

This adds a pass to verify the current profile against the flow conditions.
This is very helpful when later on trying to perserve the profiling information
during all passes.

This is a simple AliasAnalysis implementation which works by making
ScalarEvolution queries. ScalarEvolution has a more complete understanding
of arithmetic than BasicAA's collection of ad-hoc checks, so it handles
some cases that BasicAA misses, for example p[i] and p[i+1] within the
same iteration of a loop.
This is currently experimental. It may be that the main use for this pass
will be to help find cases where BasicAA can be profitably extended, or
to help in the development of the overall AliasAnalysis infrastructure,
however it's also possible that it could grow up to become a directly
useful pass.

For now this only computes the allocated size of the memory pointed to by a
pointer, and offset a pointer from allocated pointer.
The actual checkLimits part will come later, after another round of review.

is that, for functions whose bodies are entirely guarded by an if-statement, it
can be profitable to pull the test out of the callee and into the caller.
This code has had some cursory testing, but still has a number of known issues
on the LLVM test suite.

the set of blocks in which values are used, the set in which
values are live-through, and the set in which values are
killed. For the live-through and killed sets, conservative
approximations are used.

to work out (in a very simplistic way) which function
arguments (pointer arguments only) are only dereferenced
and so do not escape. Mark such arguments 'nocapture'.

This triggers only 60 times in llvm-test (look at .llvm.bc, not .linked.rbc)
and so it probably wont be turned on by default. Also, may of those are likely
to go away when PR2973 is fixed.

Unfortunately this means removing one regression test
of GlobalsModRef because I couldn't work out how to
perform it without MarkModRef.

can get the readnone/readonly attributes, and gives them it.
The plan is to remove markmodref (which did the same thing
by querying GlobalsModRef) and delete the analogous
functionality from GlobalsModRef.
llvm-svn: 56341
attributes on functions, based on the result of
alias analysis. It's not hardwired to use
GlobalsModRef even though this is the only (AFAIK)
alias analysis that results in this pass actually
doing something. Enable as follows:
opt ... -globalsmodref-aa -markmodref ...
Advantages of this pass: (1) records the result
of globalsmodref in the bitcode, meaning it is
available for use by later passes (currently
the pass manager isn't smart enough to magically
make an advanced alias analysis available to all
later passes), which may expose more optimization
opportunities; (2) hopefully speeds up compilation
when code is optimized twice, for example when a
file is compiled to bitcode, then later LTO is done
on it: marking functions readonly/readnone when
producing the initial bitcode should speed up alias
analysis during LTO; (3) good for discovering that
globalsmodref doesn't work very well :)
Not currently turned on by default.
