Verification of the LLVM IR produced when translating various MLIR dialects was
only active when calling the translation programmatically. This has led to
several cases of invalid LLVM IR being generated that could not be caught with
textual mlir-translate tests. Add verifiers for these cases and fix the tests

Historically, the Vector to LLVM dialect conversion subsumed the Standard to
LLVM dialect conversion patterns. This was necessary because the conversion
infrastructure did not have sufficient support for reconciling type
conversions. This support is now available. Only keep the patterns related to
the Vector dialect in the Vector to LLVM conversion and require type casts
operations to be inserted if necessary. These casts will be removed by
following conversions if possible. Update integration tests to also run the
Standard to LLVM conversion.
There is a significant amount of test churn, which is due to (a) unnecessarily
strict tests in VectorToLLVM and (b) many patterns actually targeting Standard
dialect ops instead of LLVM dialect ops leading to tests actually exercising a
Vector->Standard->LLVM conversion. This churn is a good illustration of the
reason to make the conversion partial: now the tests only check the code in the
Vector to LLVM conversion and will not be randomly broken by changes in
Standard to LLVM conversion.
Arguably, it may be possible to extract Vector to Standard patterns into a
separate pass, but given the ongoing splitting of the Standard dialect, such
pass will be short-lived and will require further refactoring.

Continue the convergence between LLVM dialect and built-in types by using the
built-in vector type whenever possible, that is for fixed vectors of built-in
integers and built-in floats. LLVM dialect vector type is still in use for
pointers, less frequent floating point types that do not have a built-in
equivalent, and scalable vectors. However, the top-level `LLVMVectorType` class
has been removed in favor of free functions capable of inspecting both built-in

`LLVM::getNumVectorElements` and `LLVM::getFixedVectorType`. Additional work is
necessary to design an implemented the extensions to built-in types so as to
remove the `LLVMFixedVectorType` entirely.
Note that the default output format for the built-in vectors does not have
whitespace around the `x` separator, e.g., `vector<4xf32>` as opposed to the
LLVM dialect vector type format that does, e.g., `!llvm.vec<4 x fp128>`. This

The LLVM dialect type system has been closed until now, i.e. did not support
types from other dialects inside containers. While this has had obvious
benefits of deriving from a common base class, it has led to some simple types
being almost identical with the built-in types, namely integer and floating
point types. This in turn has led to a lot of larger-scale complexity: simple
types must still be converted, numerous operations that correspond to LLVM IR
intrinsics are replicated to produce versions operating on either LLVM dialect
or built-in types leading to quasi-duplicate dialects, lowering to the LLVM
dialect is essentially required to be one-shot because of type conversion, etc.
In this light, it is reasonable to trade off some local complexity in the
internal implementation of LLVM dialect types for removing larger-scale system
complexity. Previous commits to the LLVM dialect type system have adapted the
API to support types from other dialects.
Replace LLVMIntegerType with the built-in IntegerType plus additional checks
that such types are signless (these are isolated in a utility function that
replaced `isa<LLVMType>` and in the parser). Temporarily keep the possibility
to parse `!llvm.i32` as a synonym for `i32`, but add a deprecation notice.

LLVM dialect type parsing and printing have been using a local stack object
forwarded between recursive functions responsible for parsing or printing
specific types. This stack is necessary to intercept (mutually) recursive
structure types and avoid inifinite recursion. This approach works only thanks
to the closedness of the LLVM dialect type system: types that don't belong to
the dialect are not allowed. Switch the approach to using a `thread_local`
stack inside the functions parsing the structure types. This makes the code
slightly cleaner by avoiding the need to pass the stack object around and, more
importantly, makes it possible to reconsider the closedness of the LLVM dialect
type system. As a nice side effect of this change, container LLVM dialect types
now support type aliases in their body (although it is currently impossible to

LLVMType contains multiple instance methods that were introduced initially for

The LLVM IR 'switch' instruction allows control flow to be transferred
to one of any number of branches depending on an integer control value,
or a default value if the control does not match any branch values. This patch
adds `llvm.switch` to the MLIR LLVMIR dialect, as well as translation routines
for lowering it to LLVM IR.
To store a variable number of operands for a variable number of branch
destinations, the new op makes use of the `AttrSizedOperandSegments`
trait. It stores its default branch operands as one segment, and all
remaining case branches' operands as another. It also stores pairs of
begin and end offset values to delineate the sub-range of each case branch's
operands. There's probably a better way to implement this, since the
offset computation complicates several parts of the op definition. This is the
approach I settled on because in doing so I was able to delegate to the default
op builder member functions. However, it may be preferable to instead specify
`skipDefaultBuilders` in the op's ODS, or use a completely separate
approach; feedback is welcome!
Another contentious part of this patch may be the custom printer and
parser functions for the op. Ideally I would have liked the MLIR to be
printed in this way:
```
llvm.switch %0, ^bb1(%1 : !llvm.i32) [
1: ^bb2,
2: ^bb3(%2, %3 : !llvm.i32, !llvm.i32)
]
```
The above would resemble how LLVM IR is formatted for the 'switch'
instruction. But I found it difficult to print and parse something like
this, whether I used the declarative assembly format or custom functions.
I also was not sure a multi-line format would be welcome -- it seems
like most MLIR ops do not use newlines. Again, I'd be happy to hear any
feedback here as well, or on any other aspect of the patch.

This operation is designed to support partial conversion, more specifically the
IR state in which some operations expect or produce built-in types and some
operations produce and expect LLVM dialect types. It is reasonable for it to
support cast between built-in types and any equivalent that could be produced
by the type conversion. (At the same time, we don't want the dialect to depend
on the type conversion as it could lead to a dependency cycle). Introduce
support for casting from index to any integer type and back, and from memref to
bare pointer or memref descriptor type and back.
Contrary to what the TODO in the code stated, there are no particular
precautions necessary to handle the bare pointer conversion for memerfs. This
conversion applies exclusively to statically-shaped memrefs, so we can always
recover the full descriptor contents from the type.
This patch simultaneously tightens the verification for other types to only
accept matching pairs of types, e.g., i64 and !llvm.i64, as opposed to the
previous implementation that only checked if the types were generally allowed
byt not for matching, e.g. i64 could be "casted" to !llvm.bfloat, which is not
the intended semantics.
Move the relevant test under test/Dialect/LLVMIR because it is not specific to
the conversion pass, but rather exercises an op in the dialect. If we decide
this op does not belong to the LLVM dialect, both the dialect and the op should
move together.

Attempting to define or reference any symbol or any global behavior is

The asm dialect syntax is currently specified with an integer (0 [default] for the "att dialect", 1 for the intel dialect) to circumvent the ODS limitation on string enums.
Translation to LLVM is provided and raises the fact that the asm constraints string must be well-formed with respect to in/out operands. No check is performed on the asm_string.
An InlineAsm instruction in LLVM is a special call operation to a function that is constructed on the fly.
It does not fit the current model of MLIR calls with symbols.
As a consequence, the current implementation constructs the function type in ModuleTranslation.cpp.
This should be refactored in the future.

Legacy implementation of the LLVM dialect in MLIR contained an instance of
llvm::Module as it was required to parse LLVM IR types. The access to the data
layout of this module was exposed to the users for convenience, but in practice
this layout has always been the default one obtained by parsing an empty layout
description string. Current implementation of the dialect no longer relies on
wrapping LLVM IR types, but it kept an instance of DataLayout for
compatibility. This effectively forces a single data layout to be used across
all modules in a given MLIR context, which is not desirable. Remove DataLayout
from the LLVM dialect and attach it as a module attribute instead. Since MLIR
does not yet have support for data layouts, use the LLVM DataLayout in string
form with verification inside MLIR. Introduce the layout when converting a
module to the LLVM dialect and keep the default "" description for
compatibility.
This approach should be replaced with a proper MLIR-based data layout when it

Initially, unranked memref descriptors in the LLVM dialect were designed only
to be passed into functions. An assertion was guarding against returning
unranked memrefs from functions in the standard-to-LLVM conversion. This is
insufficient for functions that wish to return an unranked memref such that the
caller does not know the rank in advance, and hence cannot allocate the
descriptor and pass it in as an argument.
Introduce a calling convention for returning unranked memref descriptors as
follows. An unranked memref descriptor always points to a ranked memref
descriptor stored on stack of the current function. When an unranked memref
descriptor is returned from a function, the ranked memref descriptor it points
to is copied to dynamically allocated memory, the ownership of which is
transferred to the caller. The caller is responsible for deallocating the
dynamically allocated memory and for copying the pointed-to ranked memref
descriptor onto its stack.
Provide default lowerings for std.return, std.call and std.indirect_call that
maintain the conversion defined above.

This allows verifying op-indepent attributes (e.g., attributes that do not require the op to have been created) before constructing an operation. These include checking whether required attributes are defined or constraints on attributes (such as I32 attribute). This is not perfect (e.g., if one had a disjunctive constraint where one part relied on the op and the other doesn't, then this would not try and extract the op independent from the op dependent).
The next step is to move these out to a trait that could be verified earlier than in the generated method. The first use case is for inferring the return type while constructing the op. At that point you don't have an Operation yet and that ends up in one having to duplicate the same checks, e.g., verify that attribute A is defined before querying A in shape function which requires that duplication. Instead this allows one to invoke a method to verify all the traits and, if this is checked first during verification, then all other traits could use attributes knowing they have been verified.
It is a little bit funny to have these on the adaptor, but I see the adaptor as a place to collect information about the op before the op is constructed (e.g., avoiding stringly typed accessors, verifying what is possible to verify before the op is constructed) while being cheap to use even with constructed op (so layer of indirection between the op constructed/being constructed). And from that point of view it made sense to me.
