This PR:
* adds support for G_SPLAT_VECTOR generic opcode that may be legally
generated instead of G_BUILD_VECTOR by previous passes of the translator
(see https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/80378 for the source of
breaking changes);
* improves deduction of types for opaque pointers.
This PR also fixes the following issues:
* if a function has ptr argument(s), two functions that have different
SPIR-V type definitions may get identical LLVM function types and break
agreements of global register and duplicate checker;
* checks for pointer types do not account for TypedPointerType.
Update of tests:
* A test case is added to cover the issue with function ptr parameters.
* The first case, that is support for G_SPLAT_VECTOR generic opcode, is
covered by existing test cases.
* Multiple additional checks by `spirv-val` is added to cover more
possibilities of generation of invalid code.
This pull request aims to remove any dependency on OpenCL/SPIR-V type
information in LLVM IR metadata. While, using metadata might simplify
and prettify the resulting SPIR-V output (and restore some of the
information missed in the transformation to opaque pointers), the
overall methodology for resolving kernel parameter types is highly
inefficient.
The high-level strategy is to assign kernel parameter types in this order:
1. Resolving the types using builtin function calls as mangled names
must contain type information or by looking up builtin definition in
SPIRVBuiltins.td. Then:
- Assigning the type temporarily using an intrinsic and later setting
the right SPIR-V type in SPIRVGlobalRegistry after IRTranslation
- Inserting a bitcast
2. Defaulting to LLVM IR types (in case of pointers the generic i8*
type or types from byval/byref attributes)
In case of type incompatibility (e.g. parameter defined initially as
sampler_t and later used as image_t) the error will be found early on
before IRTranslation (in the SPIRVEmitIntrinsics pass).
This patch introduces a new spv_ptrcast intrinsic for tracking expected
pointer types. The change fixes multiple OpenCL CTS regressions due the
switch to opaque pointers (e.g. basic/hiloeo).
