In PR24288 it was pointed out that the easy case of a non-escaping
global and something that *obviously* required an escape sometimes is
hidden behind PHIs (or selects in theory). Because we have this binary
test, we can easily just check that all possible input values satisfy
the requirement. This is done with a (very small) recursion through PHIs
and selects. With this, the specific example from the PR is correctly
folded by GVN.

no-alias with non-addr-taken globals: they cannot alias a captured
pointer.
If the non-global underlying object would have been a capture were it to
alias the global, we can firmly conclude no-alias. It isn't reasonable
for a transformation to introduce a capture in a way observable by an
alias analysis. Consider, even if it were to temporarily capture one
globals address into another global and then restore the other global
afterward, there would be no way for the load in the alias query to
observe that capture event correctly. If it observes it then the
temporary capturing would have changed the meaning of the program,
making it an invalid transformation. Even instrumentation passes or
a pass which is synthesizing stores to global variables to expose race
conditions in programs could not trigger this unless it queried the
alias analysis infrastructure mid-transform, in which case it seems
reasonable to return results from before the transform started.
See the comments in the change for a more detailed outlining of the
theory here.
This should address the primary performance regression found when the
non-conservatively-correct path of the alias query was disabled.

or when globals were deleted.
I don't actually know how the global deletion side of this bug hasn't
been hit before, but for the other it just-so-happens that functions
aren't likely to be deleted in the particular part of the LTO pipeline
where we currently enable GMR, so we got lucky.
With this patch, I can self-host with GMR enabled in the normal pass
pipeline!
I was a bit concerned about the compile-time impact of this chang, which
is part of what motivated my prior string of patches to make the
per-function datastructure very dense and fast to walk. With those
changes in place, I can't measure a significant compile time difference
(the difference is around 0.1% which is *way* below the noise) before
and after this patch when building a linked bitcode for all of Clang.

and an often-null pointer here. This fits very nicely into a
pointer-size value in the DenseMap from Function -> Info. Then we take
one more pointer hop to get to a secondary DenseMap from GlobalValue ->
ModRefInfo when we actually have precise info for particular globals.
This is more code than I would really like to do this packing, but it
ended up reasonably cleanly laid out. It should ensure we don't hit
scaling limitations with more widespread use of GMR.

This takes the operation of merging a callee's information into the

In order to do this, they had to become fake-scoped using the
traditional LLVM pattern of a leading initialism. These can't be actual
scoped enumerations because they're bitfields and thus inherently we use
them as integers.
I've also renamed the behavior enums that are specific to reasoning
about the mod/ref behavior of functions when called. This makes it more
clear that they have a very narrow domain of applicability.
I think there is a significantly cleaner API for all of this, but
I don't want to try to do really substantive changes for now, I just
want to refactor the things away from analysis groups so I'm preserving
the exact original design and just cleaning up the names, style, and
lifting out of the class.

This replaces the next-to-last std::map with a DenseMap. While DenseMap
doesn't yet make tons of sense (there are 32 bytes or so in the value

we only need a pointer and 3 bits, and that is exactly what we can have.

efficient, NFC.
Previously, we built up vectors of function pointers to track readers
and writers. The primary problem here is that we would add the same
function to this vector every time we found an instruction that reads or
writes to the pointer. This could be a *lot* of redudant function
pointers. Instead of doing that, we can use a SmallPtrSet.
This does more than just reduce the size of the list of readers or
writers. We walk the entire lists of each and do a map lookup for each
one. By having sets, we will only do one map lookup per reader or writer
function.
But only one user of the pointer analyzer actually needs this
information, so we can also skip accumulating it (and doing a lot of
heap allocations) for all the other pointer analysis. This is
particularly useful because there are very many more pointers in some of
the other cases.
llvm-svn: 242950
This almost certainly doesn't matter in some deep sense, but std::set is

Since we have to iterate this map not that infrequently, we should use
a map that is efficient for iteration. It is also almost certainly much
faster for lookups as well. There is more to do in terms of reducing the
wasted overhead of GMR's runtime though. Not sure how much is worthwhile
though.

GlobalsModRef) with CallbackVHs that trigger the same behavior.
This is technically more expensive, but in benchmarking some LTO runs,
it seems unlikely to even be above the noise floor. The only way I was
able to measure the performance of GMR at all was to run nothing else
but this one analysis on a linked clang bitcode file. The call graph
analysis still took 5x more time than GMR, and this change at most made
GMR 2% slower (this is well within the noise, so its hard for me to be
sure that this is an actual change). However, in a real LTO run over the
same bitcode, the GMR run takes so little time that the pass timers
don't measure it.

directly model in the new PM.
This also was an incredibly brittle and expensive update API that was
never fully utilized by all the passes that claimed to preserve AA, nor
could it reasonably have been extended to all of them. Any number of
places add uses of values. If we ever wanted to reliably instrument
this, we would want a callback hook much like we have with ValueHandles,
but doing this for every use addition seems *extremely* expensive in
terms of compile time.
The only user of this update mechanism is GlobalsModRef. The idea of
using this to keep it up to date doesn't really work anyways as its
analysis requires a symmetric analysis of two different memory
locations. It would be very hard to make updates be sufficiently
rigorous to *guarantee* symmetric analysis in this way, and it pretty
certainly isn't true today.
However, folks have been using GMR with this update for a long time and
seem to not be hitting the issues. The reported issue that the update
hook fixes isn't even a problem any more as other changes to
GetUnderlyingObject worked around it, and that issue stemmed from *many*
years ago. As a consequence, a prior patch provided a flag to control
the unsafe behavior of GMR, and this patch removes the update mechanism
that has questionable compile-time tradeoffs and is causing problems
with moving to the new pass manager. Note the lack of test updates --
not one test in tree actually requires this update, even for a contrived
case.
All of this was extensively discussed on the dev list, this patch will
just enact what that discussion decides on. I'm sending it for review in
part to show what I'm planning, and in part to show the *amazing* amount
of work this avoids. Every call to the AA here is something like three
to six indirect function calls, which in the non-LTO pipeline never do
any work! =[

basic changes to the IR such as folding pointers through PHIs, Selects,
integer casts, store/load pairs, or outlining.
This leaves the feature available behind a flag. This flag's default
could be flipped if necessary, but the real-world performance impact of
this particular feature of GMR may not be sufficiently significant for
many folks to want to run the risk.
Currently, the risk here is somewhat mitigated by half-hearted attempts
to update GlobalsModRef when the rest of the optimizer changes
something. However, I am currently trying to remove that update
mechanism as it makes migrating the AA infrastructure to a form that can
be readily shared between new and old pass managers very challenging.
Without this update mechanism, it is possible that this still unlikely
failure mode will start to trip people, and so I wanted to try to
proactively avoid that.
There is a lengthy discussion on the mailing list about why the core
approach here is flawed, and likely would need to look totally different
to be both reasonably effective and resilient to basic IR changes
occuring. This patch is essentially the first of two which will enact
the result of that discussion. The next patch will remove the current
update mechanism.
Thanks to lots of folks that helped look at this from different angles.
Especial thanks to Michael Zolotukhin for doing some very prelimanary
benchmarking of LTO without GlobalsModRef to get a rough idea of the
impact we could be facing here. So far, it looks very small, but there
are some concerns lingering from other benchmarking. The default here
may get flipped if performance results end up pointing at this as a more
significant issue.
Also thanks to Pete and Gerolf for reviewing!

inspection.
While we want to handle calls specially in this code because they should
have been modeled by the call graph analysis that precedes it, we should
*not* be re-implementing the predicates for whether an instruction reads
or writes memory. Those are well defined already. Notably, at least the
following issues seem to be clearly missed before:
- Ordered atomic loads can "write" to memory by causing writes from other
threads to become visible. Similarly for ordered atomic stores.
- AtomicRMW instructions quite obviously both read and write to memory.
- AtomicCmpXchg instructions also read and write to memory.
- Fences read and write to memory.
- Invokes of intrinsics or memory allocation functions.
I don't have any test cases, and I suspect this has never really come up
in the real world. But there is no reason why it wouldn't, and it makes
the code simpler to do this the right way.
While here, I've tried to make the loops significantly simpler as well
and added helpful comments as to what is going on.

No in-tree alias analysis used this facility, and it was not called in
any particularly rigorous way, so it seems unlikely to be correct.
Note that one of the only stateful AA implementations in-tree,
GlobalsModRef is completely broken currently (and any AA passes like it
are equally broken) because Module AA passes are not effectively
invalidated when a function pass that fails to update the AA stack runs.
Ultimately, it doesn't seem like we know how we want to build stateful
AA, and until then trying to support and maintain correctness for an
untested API is essentially impossible. To that end, I'm planning to rip
out all of the update API. It can return if and when we need it and know
how to build it on top of the new pass manager and as part of *tested*
stateful AA implementations in the tree.

This will allow classes to implement the AA interface without deriving
from the class or referencing an internal enum of some other class as
their return types.
Also, to a pretty fundamental extent, concepts such as 'NoAlias',
'MayAlias', and 'MustAlias' are first class concepts in LLVM and we
aren't saving anything by scoping them heavily.
My mild preference would have been to use a scoped enum, but that
feature is essentially completely broken AFAICT. I'm extremely
disappointed. For example, we cannot through any reasonable[1] means
construct an enum class (or analog) which has scoped names but converts
to a boolean in order to test for the possibility of aliasing.
[1]: Richard Smith came up with a "solution", but it requires class
templates, and lots of boilerplate setting up the enumeration multiple
times. Something like Boost.PP could potentially bundle this up, but
even that would be quite painful and it doesn't seem realistically worth
it. The enum class solution would probably work without the need for
a bool conversion.

CallSite roughly behaves as a common base CallInst and InvokeInst. Bring
the behavior closer to that model by making upcasts explicit. Downcasts
remain implicit and work as before.
Following dyn_cast as a mental model checking whether a Value *V isa
CallSite now looks like this:
if (auto CS = CallSite(V)) // think dyn_cast
instead of:
if (CallSite CS = V)
This is an extra token but I think it is slightly clearer. Making the
ctor explicit has the advantage of not accidentally creating nullptr
CallSites, e.g. when you pass a Value * to a function taking a CallSite
argument.

Summary:
Now that the DataLayout is a mandatory part of the module, let's start
cleaning the codebase. This patch is a first attempt at doing that.
This patch is not exactly NFC as for instance some places were passing
a nullptr instead of the DataLayout, possibly just because there was a
default value on the DataLayout argument to many functions in the API.
Even though it is not purely NFC, there is no change in the
validation.
I turned as many pointer to DataLayout to references, this helped
figuring out all the places where a nullptr could come up.
I had initially a local version of this patch broken into over 30
independant, commits but some later commit were cleaning the API and
touching part of the code modified in the previous commits, so it
seemed cleaner without the intermediate state.

This requires a number of steps.
1) Move value_use_iterator into the Value class as an implementation
detail
2) Change it to actually be a *Use* iterator rather than a *User*
iterator.
3) Add an adaptor which is a User iterator that always looks through the
Use to the User.
4) Wrap these in Value::use_iterator and Value::user_iterator typedefs.
5) Add the range adaptors as Value::uses() and Value::users().
6) Update *all* of the callers to correctly distinguish between whether
they wanted a use_iterator (and to explicitly dig out the User when
needed), or a user_iterator which makes the Use itself totally
opaque.
Because #6 requires churning essentially everything that walked the
Use-Def chains, I went ahead and added all of the range adaptors and
switched them to range-based loops where appropriate. Also because the
renaming requires at least churning every line of code, it didn't make
any sense to split these up into multiple commits -- all of which would
touch all of the same lies of code.
The result is still not quite optimal. The Value::use_iterator is a nice
regular iterator, but Value::user_iterator is an iterator over User*s
rather than over the User objects themselves. As a consequence, it fits
a bit awkwardly into the range-based world and it has the weird
extra-dereferencing 'operator->' that so many of our iterators have.
I think this could be fixed by providing something which transforms
a range of T&s into a range of T*s, but that *can* be separated into
another patch, and it isn't yet 100% clear whether this is the right
move.
However, this change gets us most of the benefit and cleans up
a substantial amount of code around Use and User. =]

CallGraph.
This makes the CallGraph a totally generic analysis object that is the
container for the graph data structure and the primary interface for
querying and manipulating it. The pass logic is separated into its own
class. For compatibility reasons, the pass provides wrapper methods for
most of the methods on CallGraph -- they all just forward.
This will allow the new pass manager infrastructure to provide its own
analysis pass that constructs the same CallGraph object and makes it
available. The idea is that in the new pass manager, the analysis pass's
'run' method returns a concrete analysis 'result'. Here, that result is
a 'CallGraph'. The 'run' method will typically do only minimal work,
deferring much of the work into the implementation of the result object
in order to be lazy about computing things, but when (like DomTree)
there is *some* up-front computation, the analysis does it prior to
handing the result back to the querying pass.
I know some of this is fairly ugly. I'm happy to change it around if
folks can suggest a cleaner interim state, but there is going to be some
amount of unavoidable ugliness during the transition period. The good
thing is that this is very limited and will naturally go away when the
old pass infrastructure goes away. It won't hang around to bother us
later.
