Relative to the previous attempt this includes two fixes:
* Adjust callCapturesBefore() to not skip captures(ret: address,
provenance) arguments, as these will not count as a capture
at the call-site.
* When visiting uses during stack slot optimization, don't skip
the ModRef check for passthru captures. Calls can both modref
and be passthru for captures.
------
This extends CaptureTracking to support inferring non-trivial
CaptureInfos. The focus of this patch is to only support FunctionAttrs,
other users of CaptureTracking will be updated in followups.
The key API changes here are:
* DetermineUseCaptureKind() now returns a UseCaptureInfo where the UseCC
component specifies what is captured at that Use and the ResultCC
component specifies what may be captured via the return value of the
User. Usually only one or the other will be used (corresponding to
previous MAY_CAPTURE or PASSTHROUGH results), but both may be set for
call captures.
* The CaptureTracking::captures() extension point is passed this
UseCaptureInfo as well and then can decide what to do with it by
returning an Action, which is one of: Stop: stop traversal.
ContinueIgnoringReturn: continue traversal but don't follow the
instruction return value. Continue: continue traversal and follow the
instruction return value if it has additional CaptureComponents.
For now, this patch retains the (unsound) special logic for comparison
of null with a dereferenceable pointer. I'd like to switch key code to
take advantage of address/address_is_null before dropping it.
This PR mainly intends to introduce necessary API changes and basic
inference support, there are various possible improvements marked with
TODOs.
Relative to the previous attempt, this adjusts isEscapeSource()
to not treat calls with captures(ret: address, provenance) or similar
arguments as escape sources. This addresses the miscompile reported at:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/125880#issuecomment-2656632577
The implementation uses a helper function on CallBase to make this
check a bit more efficient (e.g. by skipping the byval checks) as
checking attributes on all arguments if fairly expensive.

This switches everything to use the memory attribute proposed in
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-unify-memory-effect-attributes/65579.
The old argmemonly, inaccessiblememonly and inaccessiblemem_or_argmemonly
attributes are dropped. The readnone, readonly and writeonly attributes
are restricted to parameters only.
The old attributes are auto-upgraded both in bitcode and IR.
The bitcode upgrade is a policy requirement that has to be retained
indefinitely. The IR upgrade is mainly there so it's not necessary
to update all tests using memory attributes in this patch, which
is already large enough. We could drop that part after migrating
tests, or retain it longer term, to make it easier to import IR
from older LLVM versions.
High-level Function/CallBase APIs like doesNotAccessMemory() or
setDoesNotAccessMemory() are mapped transparently to the memory
attribute. Code that directly manipulates attributes (e.g. via
AttributeList) on the other hand needs to switch to working with
the memory attribute instead.

This patch adds initial argmemonly inference, by checking the underlying
objects of locations returned by MemoryLocation.
I think this should cover most cases, except function calls to other
argmemonly functions.
I'm not sure if there's a reason why we don't infer those yet.
Additional argmemonly can improve codegen in some cases. It also makes
it easier to come up with a C reproducer for 7662d1687b09 (already fixed,
but I'm trying to see if C/C++ fuzzing could help to uncover similar
issues.)
