Patch by Ben Gamari!
This redefines the `prefix` attribute introduced previously and
introduces a `prologue` attribute. There are a two primary usecases
that these attributes aim to serve,
1. Function prologue sigils
2. Function hot-patching: Enable the user to insert `nop` operations
at the beginning of the function which can later be safely replaced
with a call to some instrumentation facility
3. Runtime metadata: Allow a compiler to insert data for use by the
runtime during execution. GHC is one example of a compiler that
needs this functionality for its tables-next-to-code functionality.
Previously `prefix` served cases (1) and (2) quite well by allowing the user
to introduce arbitrary data at the entrypoint but before the function
body. Case (3), however, was poorly handled by this approach as it
required that prefix data was valid executable code.
Here we redefine the notion of prefix data to instead be data which
occurs immediately before the function entrypoint (i.e. the symbol
address). Since prefix data now occurs before the function entrypoint,
there is no need for the data to be valid code.
The previous notion of prefix data now goes under the name "prologue
data" to emphasize its duality with the function epilogue.
The intention here is to handle cases (1) and (2) with prologue data and
case (3) with prefix data.

This idea arose out of discussions[1] with Reid Kleckner in response to a
proposal to introduce the notion of symbol offsets to enable handling of
case (3).

This is the third patch in a small series. It contains the CodeGen support for lowering the gc.statepoint intrinsic sequences (223078) to the STATEPOINT pseudo machine instruction (223085). The change also includes the set of helper routines and classes for working with gc.statepoints, gc.relocates, and gc.results since the lowering code uses them.
With this change, gc.statepoints should be functionally complete. The documentation will follow in the fourth change, and there will likely be some cleanup changes, but interested parties can start experimenting now.
I'm not particularly happy with the amount of code or complexity involved with the lowering step, but at least it's fairly well isolated. The statepoint lowering code is split into it's own files and anyone not working on the statepoint support itself should be able to ignore it.
During the lowering process, we currently spill aggressively to stack. This is not entirely ideal (and we have plans to do better), but it's functional, relatively straight forward, and matches closely the implementations of the patchpoint intrinsics. Most of the complexity comes from trying to keep relocated copies of values in the same stack slots across statepoints. Doing so avoids the insertion of pointless load and store instructions to reshuffle the stack. The current implementation isn't as effective as I'd like, but it is functional and 'good enough' for many common use cases.
In the long term, I'd like to figure out how to integrate the statepoint lowering with the register allocator. In principal, we shouldn't need to eagerly spill at all. The register allocator should do any spilling required and the statepoint should simply record that fact. Depending on how challenging that turns out to be, we may invest in a smarter global stack slot assignment mechanism as a stop gap measure.

Load instructions are inserted into loop preheaders when sinking stores
and later removed if not used by the SSA updater. Avoid sinking if the
loop has no preheader and avoid crashes. This fixes one more side effect
of not handling indirectbr instructions properly on LoopSimplify.

An unreachable default destination can be exploited by other optimizations, and
SDag lowering is now prepared to handle them efficiently.
For example, branches to the unreachable destination will be optimized away,
such as in the case of range checks for switch lookup tables.
On 64-bit Linux, this reduces the size of a clang bootstrap by 80 kB (and
Chromium by 30 kB).

This change makes MemorySanitizer instrumentation a bit more strict

This would have caught the bug that was fixed in r222918.

We may be in a situation where the icmps might not be near each other in
a tree of or instructions. Try to dig out related compare instructions
and see if they combine.
N.B. This won't fire on deep trees of compares because rewritting the
tree might end up creating a net increase of IR. We may have to resort
to something more sophisticated if this is a real problem.

Loop simplify skips exit-block insertion when exits contain indirectbr
instructions. This leads to an assertion in LICM when trying to sink
stores out of non-dedicated loop exits containing indirectbr
instructions. This patch fix this issue by re-checking for dedicated
exits in LICM prior to store sink attempts.

Switch cases statements with sequential values that branch to the same
destination BB may often be handled together in a single new source BB.
In this scenario we need to remove remaining incoming values from PHI
instructions in the destination BB, as to match the number of source
branches.

Fixed missing dominance check.
Original commit message:
This optimization tries to reuse the generated compare instruction, if there is a comparison against the default value after the switch.
Example:
if (idx < tablesize)
r = table[idx]; // table does not contain default_value
else
r = default_value;
if (r != default_value)
...
Is optimized to:
cond = idx < tablesize;
if (cond)
r = table[idx];
else
r = default_value;
if (cond)
...
Jump threading will then eliminate the second if(cond).

This reverts commit r210006, it miscompiled libapr which is used in who

A test has been added to ensure that we don't regress again.

stored rather than the pointer type.
This change is analogous to r220138 which changed the canonicalization
for loads. The rationale is the same: memory does not have a type,
operations (and thus the values they produce) have a type. We should
match that type as closely as possible rather than reading some form of
semantics into the pointer type.
With this change, loads and stores should no longer be made with
nonsensical types for the values that tehy load and store. This is
particularly important when trying to match specific loaded and stored
types in the process of doing other instcombines, which is what led me
down this twisty maze of miscanonicalization.
I've put quite some effort into looking through IR to find places where
LLVM's optimizer was being unreasonably conservative in the face of
mismatched load and store types, however it is possible (let's say,
likely!) I have missed some. If you see regressions here, or from
r220138, the likely cause is some part of LLVM failing to cope with load
and store types differing. Test cases appreciated, it is important that
we root all of these out of LLVM.

clearly only exactly equal width ptrtoint and inttoptr casts are no-op
casts, it says so right there in the langref. Make the code agree.
Original log from r220277:
Teach the load analysis to allow finding available values which require
inttoptr or ptrtoint cast provided there is datalayout available.
Eventually, the datalayout can just be required but in practice it will
always be there today.
To go with the ability to expose available values requiring a ptrtoint
or inttoptr cast, helpers are added to perform one of these three casts.
These smarts are necessary to finish canonicalizing loads and stores to
the operational type requirements without regressing fundamental
combines.
I've added some test cases. These should actually improve as the load
combining and store combining improves, but they may fundamentally be
highlighting some missing combines for select in addition to exercising
the specific added logic to load analysis.

We would create an instruction but not inserting it.
Not inserting the unused instruction would lead us to verification
failure.

Introduced new target-independent intrinsics in order to support masked vector loads and stores. The loop vectorizer optimizes loops containing conditional memory accesses by generating these intrinsics for existing targets AVX2 and AVX-512. The vectorizer asks the target about availability of masked vector loads and stores.
Added SDNodes for masked operations and lowering patterns for X86 code generator.
Examples:
<16 x i32> @llvm.masked.load.v16i32(i8* %addr, <16 x i32> %passthru, i32 4 /* align */, <16 x i1> %mask)
declare void @llvm.masked.store.v8f64(i8* %addr, <8 x double> %value, i32 4, <8 x i1> %mask)
Scalarizer for other targets (not AVX2/AVX-512) will be done in a separate patch.

The alloca's type is irrelevant, only those types which are used in a
load or store of the exact size of the slice should be considered.
This manifested as an assertion failure when we compared the various
types: we had a size mismatch.
