Original commit message:
Background:
This fixes a longstanding problem where llvm breaks ARC's autorelease
optimization (see the link below) by separating calls from the marker
instructions or retainRV/claimRV calls. The backend changes are in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D92569.
https://clang.llvm.org/docs/AutomaticReferenceCounting.html#arc-runtime-objc-autoreleasereturnvalue
What this patch does to fix the problem:
- The front-end adds operand bundle "clang.arc.attachedcall" to calls,
which indicates the call is implicitly followed by a marker
instruction and an implicit retainRV/claimRV call that consumes the
call result. In addition, it emits a call to
@llvm.objc.clang.arc.noop.use, which consumes the call result, to
prevent the middle-end passes from changing the return type of the
called function. This is currently done only when the target is arm64
and the optimization level is higher than -O0.
- ARC optimizer temporarily emits retainRV/claimRV calls after the calls
with the operand bundle in the IR and removes the inserted calls after
processing the function.
- ARC contract pass emits retainRV/claimRV calls after the call with the
operand bundle. It doesn't remove the operand bundle on the call since
the backend needs it to emit the marker instruction. The retainRV and
claimRV calls are emitted late in the pipeline to prevent optimization
passes from transforming the IR in a way that makes it harder for the
ARC middle-end passes to figure out the def-use relationship between
the call and the retainRV/claimRV calls (which is the cause of
PR31925).
- The function inliner removes an autoreleaseRV call in the callee if
nothing in the callee prevents it from being paired up with the
retainRV/claimRV call in the caller. It then inserts a release call if
claimRV is attached to the call since autoreleaseRV+claimRV is
equivalent to a release. If it cannot find an autoreleaseRV call, it
tries to transfer the operand bundle to a function call in the callee.
This is important since the ARC optimizer can remove the autoreleaseRV
returning the callee result, which makes it impossible to pair it up
with the retainRV/claimRV call in the caller. If that fails, it simply
emits a retain call in the IR if retainRV is attached to the call and
does nothing if claimRV is attached to it.
- SCCP refrains from replacing the return value of a call with a
constant value if the call has the operand bundle. This ensures the
call always has at least one user (the call to
@llvm.objc.clang.arc.noop.use).
- This patch also fixes a bug in replaceUsesOfNonProtoConstant where
multiple operand bundles of the same kind were being added to a call.
Future work:
- Use the operand bundle on x86-64.
- Fix the auto upgrader to convert call+retainRV/claimRV pairs into
calls with the operand bundles.

Inlining sometimes maps different instructions to be inlined onto the same instruction.
We must ensure to only remap the noalias scopes once. Otherwise the scope might disappear (at best).
This patch ensures that we only replace scopes for which the mapping is known.
This approach is preferred over tracking which instructions we already handled in a SmallPtrSet,

https://clang.llvm.org/docs/AutomaticReferenceCounting.html#arc-runtime-objc-autoreleasereturnvalue
What this patch does to fix the problem:
- The front-end annotates calls with attribute "clang.arc.rv"="retain"
or "clang.arc.rv"="claim", which indicates the call is implicitly
followed by a marker instruction and a retainRV/claimRV call that
consumes the call result. This is currently done only when the target

- The function inliner removes the autoreleaseRV call in the callee that
returns the result if nothing in the callee prevents it from being
paired up with the calls annotated with "clang.arc.rv"="retain/claim"
in the caller. If the call is annotated with "claim", a release call
is inserted since autoreleaseRV+claimRV is equivalent to a release. If
it cannot find an autoreleaseRV call, it tries to transfer the
attributes to a function call in the callee. This is important since
ARC optimizer can remove the autoreleaseRV call returning the callee
result, which makes it impossible to pair it up with the retainRV or
claimRV call in the caller. If that fails, it simply emits a retain
call in the IR if the call is annotated with "retain" and does nothing
if it's annotated with "claim".
- This patch teaches dead argument elimination pass not to change the
return type of a function if any of the calls to the function are
annotated with attribute "clang.arc.rv". This is necessary since the
pass can incorrectly determine nothing in the IR uses the function
return, which can happen since the front-end no longer explicitly
emits retainRV/claimRV calls in the IR, and change its return type to
'void'.

This is the same fix as 23aeadb89df38406dc4d929d08286f7ce31040eb,
just for CloneScopedAliasMetadata rather than PropagateCallSiteMetadata.
In this case the previous outcome was incorrectly dropped metadata,
as it was not part of the computed metadata map.
The real change in the test is that the first load now retains
metadata, the rest of the changes are due to changes in metadata
numbering.
The VMap also contains a mapping from Argument => Instruction,
where the instruction is part of the original function, not the
inlined one. The code was assuming that all the instructions in
the VMap were inlined.
This was a pre-existing problem for the loop access metadata, but
was extended to the more common noalias metadata by
27f647d117087ca11959e232e6443f4aee31e966, thus causing miscompiles.
There is a similar assumption inside CloneAliasScopeMetadata(), so
that one likely needs to be fixed as well.
Previously, !noalias and !alias.scope metadata on the call site was
applied as part of CloneAliasScopeMetadata(), which short-circuits
if the callee does not use any noalias metadata itself. However,
these two things have no relation to each other.
Consistently apply !noalias and !alias.scope metadata by integrating
this into an existing function that handled !llvm.access.group and
!llvm.mem.parallel_loop_access metadata. The handling for all of
these metadata kinds essentially the same.
It's currently ambiguous in IR whether the source language explicitly
did not want a stack a stack protector (in C, via function attribute
no_stack_protector) or doesn't care for any given function.
It's common for code that manipulates the stack via inline assembly or
that has to set up its own stack canary (such as the Linux kernel) would
like to avoid stack protectors in certain functions. In this case, we've
been bitten by numerous bugs where a callee with a stack protector is
inlined into an __attribute__((__no_stack_protector__)) caller, which
generally breaks the caller's assumptions about not having a stack
protector. LTO exacerbates the issue.
While developers can avoid this by putting all no_stack_protector
functions in one translation unit together and compiling those with
-fno-stack-protector, it's generally not very ergonomic or as
ergonomic as a function attribute, and still doesn't work for LTO. See also:

Typically, when inlining a callee into a caller, the caller will be
upgraded in its level of stack protection (see adjustCallerSSPLevel()).
By adding an explicit attribute in the IR when the function attribute is
used in the source language, we can now identify such cases and prevent
inlining. Block inlining when the callee and caller differ in the case that one
contains `nossp` when the other has `ssp`, `sspstrong`, or `sspreq`.

In D74183 clang started emitting alignment for sret parameters
unconditionally. This caused a 1.5% compile-time regression on
tramp3d-v4. The reason is that we now generate many instance of IR like
%ptrint = ptrtoint %class.GuardLayers* %guards_m to i64
%maskedptr = and i64 %ptrint, 3
%maskcond = icmp eq i64 %maskedptr, 0
tail call void @llvm.assume(i1 %maskcond)
to preserve the alignment information during inlining. Based on IR
analysis, these assumptions also regress optimization. The attached
phase ordering test case illustrates two issues: One are instruction
count based optimization heuristics, which are affected by the four
additional instructions of the assumption. The other is blocking of
SROA due to ptrtoint casts (PR45763).
We already encountered the same problem in Rust, where we (unlike
Clang) generally prefer to emit alignment information absolutely
everywhere it is available. We were only able to do this after
hardcoding -preserve-alignment-assumptions-during-inlining=false,
because we were seeing significant optimization and compile-time
regressions otherwise.
This patch disables -preserve-alignment-assumptions-during-inlining
by default, because we should not be punishing people for adding
more alignment annotations.
Once the assume bundle work shakes out and we can represent (and use)
alignment assumptions using assume bundles, it should be possible to
re-enable this with reduced overhead.

Consider a callee function that has a call (C) within it which feeds

call (C) within that inlined callee body.
This is safe to do so only if we can guarantee transfer of execution to
successor in the window of instructions between return value (i.e. the
call C) and the return instruction.
Also, this is valid only for attributes which are a property of a
callsite and not those that are not dependent on the ABI, or a property
of the call itself.
