If a potential interfering access is in a different kernel and the
underlying object has kernel lifetime we can straight out ignore the
interfering access.
TODO: This should be made much stronger via "reaching kernels", which we
already track in AAKernelInfo.
This patch adds initial support for the `AAAddressSpace` abstract
attributor interface to deduce and query address space information for a
pointer. We simply query the underlying objects that a pointer can point
to and find a common address space if they exist. This is the minimal
support for the interface, we currently manifest changes on loads and
stores. Additionally we should use the target transform information to
deduce if an address space transformation is a no-op for the target
machine when calculating compatibility.

If an attribute is implied by the IR we do not (always) create an AA
anymore. To keep test coverage, and given the lack of a good heuristic
to decide otherwise, we will now also manifest such attributes.
We had some custom handling for existing MemoryEffects but we now move
it to the place we check other existing attributes before we manifest
new ones. If we later decide to curb duplication (of attributes on the
call site and callee), we can do that at a single location and for all
attributes.
The test changes basically add known `memory` callee information to the
call sites.
Instead of creating an AA for an IR attribute we can first check if it
is implied/known. If so, we can save the time to create the AA, figure
out it is implied, fix it, and later manifest it in the IR
(redundantly). Other IR attributes can be added to the list in
`AA::hasAssumedIRAttr` later on, for now we support 8 different ones.
It was never really useful to track #iterations, though it helped during
the initial development. What we should track, in a follow up, are
potentially #updates. That is also what we should restrict instead of
the #iterations.
Derive the mustprogress attribute based on the willreturn attribute
or the fact that all callers are mustprogress.

This patch introduces a new AA `AAUnderlyingObjects`. It is basically like a wrapper
AA of the function `AA::getAssumedUnderlyingObjects`, but it can recursively do
query if the underlying object is an indirect access, such as a phi node or a select
instruction.

Even if all loads and stores are in `nosync` functions we cannot
guarantee there is no synchronization going on between them. As such, we
cannot use CFG reasoning. We could check the entire module, or, what
happens now to minimize test churn, is to check if all accesses are in
the same function that is `nosync`. A follow up will undo some of the
regressions where possible.
Similarly, reachability cannot be used to exclude an access if the
access is not known to be executed by the same thread as the given
instruction.
The OpenMP-opt test was added for the latter problem.
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.

Now that the legacy PM is no longer tested, the huge matrix of
test prefixes used by attributor tests is no longer needed and very
confusing for the casual reader. Reduce the prefixes down to just
CHECK, TUNIT and CGSCC.
This is the first patch in a series intended for removing flag
-enable-new-pm=0 from lit tests. This is part of a bigger
effort of completely removing legacy code related to legacy
pass manager in favor of currently default new pass manager.
In this patch flag has been removed only from tests where no significant
change has been required because checks has been duplicated for
both PMs.

If we only have exact accesses we should never require the bit-pattern
to be uniform (in this case 0). Only a non-exact access should force us
to require only 0 values.
For the longest time we used `AAValueSimplify` and
`genericValueTraversal` to determine "potential values". This was
problematic for many reasons:
- We recomputed the result a lot as there was no caching for the 9
locations calling `genericValueTraversal`.
- We added the idea of "intra" vs. "inter" procedural simplification
only as an afterthought. `genericValueTraversal` did offer an option
but `AAValueSimplify` did not. Thus, we might end up with "too much"
simplification in certain situations and then gave up on it.
- Because `genericValueTraversal` was not a real `AA` we ended up with
problems like the infinite recursion bug (#54981) as well as code
duplication.
This patch introduces `AAPotentialValues` and replaces the
`AAValueSimplify` uses with it. `genericValueTraversal` is folded into
`AAPotentialValues` as are the instruction simplifications performed in
`AAValueSimplify` before. We further distinguish "intra" and "inter"
procedural simplification now.
`AAValueSimplify` was not deleted as we haven't ported the
re-materialization of instructions yet. There are other differences over
the former handling, e.g., we may not fold trivially foldable
instructions right now, e.g., `add i32 1, 1` is not folded to `i32 2`
but if an operand would be simplified to `i32 1` we would fold it still.
We are also even more aware of function/SCC boundaries in CGSCC passes,
which is good even if some tests look like they regress.

When we run the CGSCC pass we should only invest time on the SCC. We can
initialize AAs with information from the module slice but we should not
update those AAs. We make an exception for are call site of the SCC as
they are helpful providing information for the SCC.
Minor modifications to pointer privatization allow us to perform it even
in the CGSCC pass, similar to ArgumentPromotion.

There was some ad-hoc handling of liveness and manifest to avoid
breaking CGSCC guarantees. Things always slipped through though.
This cleanup will:
1) Prevent us from manifesting any "information" outside the CGSCC.
This might be too conservative but we need to opt-in to annotation
not try to avoid some problematic ones.
2) Avoid running any liveness analysis outside the CGSCC. We did have
some AAIsDeadFunction handling to this end but we need this for all
AAIsDead classes. The reason is that AAIsDead information is only
correct if we actually manifest it, since we don't (see point 1) we
cannot actually derive/use it at all. We are currently trying to
avoid running any AA updates outside the CGSCC but that seems to
impact things quite a bit.
3) Assert, don't check, that our modifications (during cleanup) modifies
only CGSCC functions.
We already look through memory to determine where a value that is stored
might pop up again (potential copies). This patch introduces the other
direction with similar logic. If a value is loaded, we can follow all
the accesses to the pointer (or better object) and try to determine what
value might have been stored.
Both `undef` and `nullptr` are maximally aligned. This is especially
important as we often see `undef` until a proper value has been
identified during simplification.
With D106397 we used CFG reasoning to filter out writes that will not
interfere with a given load instruction. With this patch we use the
same logic (modulo the reversal in reachability check order) for store
instructions. As an example, we can now proof stores to shared memory
are dead if all the loads of the shared memory are not reachable from
them.
The oversight caused us to ignore call sites that are effectively dead
when we computed reachability (or more precise the call edges of a
function). The problem is that loads in the readonly callee might depend
on stores prior to the callee. If we do not track the call edge we
mistakenly assumed the store before the call cannot reach the load.
The problem is nicely visible in:
`llvm/test/Transforms/Attributor/ArgumentPromotion/basictest.ll`
Caused by D118673.

To make usage easier (compared to the many reachability related AAs),
this patch introduces a helper API, `AA::isPotentiallyReachable`, which
performs all the necessary steps. It also does the "backwards"
reachability (see D106720) as that simplifies the AA a lot (backwards
queries were somewhat different from the other query resolvers), and
ensures we use cached values in every stage.
To test inter-procedural reachability in a reasonable way this patch
includes an extension to `AAPointerInfo::forallInterferingWrites`.
Basically, we can exclude writes if they cannot reach a load "during the
lifetime" of the allocation. That is, we need to go up the call graph to
determine reachability until we can determine the allocation would be
dead in the caller. This leads to new constant propagations (through
memory) in `value-simplify-pointer-info-gpu.ll`.
Note: The new code contains plenty debug output to determine how
reachability queries are resolved.

D106720 introduced features that did not work properly as we could add
new queries after a fixpoint was reached and which could not be answered
by the information gathered up to the fixpoint alone.
As an alternative to D110078, which forced eager computation where we
want to continue to be lazy, this patch fixes the problem.
QueryAAs are AAs that allow lazy queries during their lifetime. They are
never fixed if they have no outstanding dependences and always run as
part of the updates in an iteration. To determine if we are done, all
query AAs are asked if they received new queries, if not, we only need
to consider updated AAs, as before. If new queries are present we go for
another iteration.

This test shows how we can use alloca position and kernel+AS information
to improve reachability queries and consequently store-load forwarding.
The thirst argument passed to the @use function can be determined

verification.
