Generate nuw GEPs for struct member accesses, as inbounds + non-negative
implies nuw.
Regression tests are updated using update scripts where possible, and by
find + replace where not.
Currently `__FINITE_MATH_ONLY__` is set when `FiniteMathOnly`. And
`FiniteMathOnly` is set when `NoHonorInfs` && `NoHonorNans` is true. But
what happens one of the latter flags is false?
To avoid potential inconsistencies, the internal option `FiniteMathOnly`
is removed option and the macro `__FINITE_MATH_ONLY__` is set when
`NoHonorInfs` && `NoHonorNans`.
This patch canonicalizes getelementptr instructions with constant
indices to use the `i8` source element type. This makes it easier for
optimizations to recognize that two GEPs are identical, because they
don't need to see past many different ways to express the same offset.
This is a first step towards
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-replacing-getelementptr-with-ptradd/68699.
This is limited to constant GEPs only for now, as they have a clear
canonical form, while we're not yet sure how exactly to deal with
variable indices.
The test llvm/test/Transforms/PhaseOrdering/switch_with_geps.ll gives
two representative examples of the kind of optimization improvement we
expect from this change. In the first test SimplifyCFG can now realize
that all switch branches are actually the same. In the second test it
can convert it into simple arithmetic. These are representative of
common optimization failures we see in Rust.

This is the consolidation of D151644 and D151943 moved from
InstCombine to FunctionAttrs. This is based on discussion in the above
patches as well as D152081 (Attributor). This patch was written in a
way so it can have an immediate impact in currently active passes
(FunctionAttrs), but should be easy to port elsewhere (Attributor or
Inliner) if that makes more sense later on.
Some function attributes imply the attribute for all/some instructions
in the function. These attributes can be safely propagated to
callsites within the function that are missing the attribute. This can
be useful when 1) analyzing individual instructions in a function
and 2) if the original caller is later inlined, as if the attributes are
not propagated, they will be lost.
This patch implements propagation in a new class/file
`InferCallsiteAttrs` which can hypothetically be included elsewhere.
At the moment this patch infers the following:
Function Attributes:
- mustprogress
- nofree
- willreturn
- All memory attributes (readnone, readonly, writeonly, argmem,
etc...)
- The memory attributes are only propagated IFF the set of
pointers available to the callsite is the same as the set
available outside the caller (i.e no local memory arguments
from alloca or local malloc like functions).
Argument Attributes:
- noundef
- nonnull
- nofree
- readnone
- readonly
- writeonly
- nocapture
- nocapture is only propagated IFF the set of pointers
available to the callsite is the same as the set available
outside the caller and its guranteed that between the
callsite and function return, the state of any capture
pointers will not change (so the nocaptured gurantee of the
caller has been met by the instruction preceding the
callsite and will not changed).
Argument are only propagated to callsite arguments that are also function
arguments, but not derived values.
Return Attributes:
- noundef
- nonnull
Return attributes are only propagated if the callsite's return value
is used as the caller's return and execution is guranteed to pass from
callsite to return.
The compile time hit of this for -O3 and -O3+thinLTO is ~[.02, .37]%
regression. Proper LTO, however, has more significant regressions (up
to 3.92%):

Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D152226
Set this on any source level floating-point type argument,
return value, call return or outgoing parameter which is lowered
to a valid IR type for the attribute. Currently this isn't
applied to emitted intrinsics since those don't go through
ABI code.
