getModRefInfo() queries currently track whether the result is a
MustAlias on a best-effort basis. The only user of this functionality
is the optimized memory access type in MemorySSA -- which in turn
has no users. Given that this functionality has not found a user
since it was introduced five years ago (in D38862), I think we
should drop it again.
The context is that I'm working to separate FunctionModRefBehavior
to track mod/ref for different location kinds (like argmem or
inaccessiblemem) separately, and the fact that ModRefInfo also has
an unrelated Must flag makes this quite awkward, especially as this
means that NoModRef is not a zero value. If we want to retain the
functionality, I would probably split getModRefInfo() results into
a part that just contains the ModRef information, and a separate
part containing a (best-effort) AliasResult.

This changes MemorySSA to be constructed in unoptimized form.
MemorySSA::ensureOptimizedUses() can be called to optimize all
uses (once). This should be done by passes where having optimized
uses is beneficial, either because we're going to query all uses
anyway, or because we're doing def-use walks.
This should help reduce the compile-time impact of MemorySSA for
some use cases (the reason why I started looking into this is
D117926), which can avoid optimizing all uses upfront, and instead
only optimize those that are actually queried.
Actually, we have an existing use-case for this, which is EarlyCSE.
Disabling eager use optimization there gives a significant
compile-time improvement, because EarlyCSE will generally only query
clobbers for a subset of all uses (this change is not included in
this patch).

This patch continues unblocking optimizations that are blocked by pseudo probe instrumentation.
Not exactly like DbgIntrinsics, PseudoProbe intrinsic has other attributes (such as mayread, maywrite, mayhaveSideEffect) that can block optimizations. The issues fixed are:
- Flipped default param of getFirstNonPHIOrDbg API to skip pseudo probes
- Unblocked CSE by avoiding pseudo probe from clobbering memory SSA
- Unblocked induction variable simpliciation
- Allow empty loop deletion by treating probe intrinsic isDroppable
- Some refactoring.

Add two levels of verification for MemorySSA: Fast and Full.
The defaults are kept the same. Full verification always occurs under
EXPENSIVE_CHECKS, but now it can also be requested in a specific pass for
debugging purposes.
The implementation is mostly copied from MemDepAnalysis. We want to look
at all loads and stores to the same pointer operand. Bitcasts and zero
GEPs of a pointer are considered the same pointer value. We choose the
most dominating instruction.
Since updating MemorySSA with invariant.group is non-trivial, for now
handling of invariant.group is not cached in any way, so it's part of
the walker. The number of loads/stores with invariant.group is small for
now anyway. We can revisit if this actually noticeably affects compile
times.
To avoid invariant.group affecting optimized uses, we need to have
optimizeUsesInBlock() not use invariant.group in any way.

This option has been enabled by default for quite a while now.
The practical impact of removing the option is that MSSA use
cannot be disabled in default pipelines (both LPM and NPM) and
in manual LPM invocations. NPM can still choose to enable/disable
MSSA using loop vs loop-mssa.
The next step will be to require MSSA for LICM and drop the
AST-based implementation entirely.

As mentioned in [[ https://reviews.llvm.org/D96979 | D96979 ]], I'm extending the **IsGuaranteedLoopInvariant** check also to the `MemorySSA.cpp` file.
@fhahn For now I didn't unify the function into `MemorySSA.h` because, as you mentioned, it's not directly MSSA related. I'm open to suggestions to find a better place so we can improve the unification process.

When calling getClobberingMemoryAccess() with MemoryLocation on a
MemoryPHI starting access, the walker currently immediately bails
and returns the starting access. This makes sense for the API that
does not accept a location (as we wouldn't know what clobber we
should be checking for), but doesn't make sense for the
MemoryLocation-based API. This means that it can't look through
a MemoryPHI if it's the starting access, but can if there is one
more non-clobbering def in between. This patch removes the limitation.

MemorySSA currently treats lifetime.end intrinsics as not aliasing
anything. This breaks MemorySSA-based MemCpyOpt, because we'll happily
move a read of a pointer below a lifetime.end intrinsic, as no clobber
is reported.
I think the MemorySSA modelling here isn't correct: lifetime.end(p)
has approximately the same effect as doing a memcpy(p, undef), and
should be treated as a clobber.
This patch removes the special handling of lifetime.end, leaving
alias analysis to handle it appropriately.

Currently, we have some confusion in the codebase regarding the
meaning of LocationSize::unknown(): Some parts (including most of
BasicAA) assume that LocationSize::unknown() only allows accesses
after the base pointer. Some parts (various callers of AA) assume
that LocationSize::unknown() allows accesses both before and after
the base pointer (but within the underlying object).
This patch splits up LocationSize::unknown() into
LocationSize::afterPointer() and LocationSize::beforeOrAfterPointer()
to make this completely unambiguous. I tried my best to determine
which one is appropriate for all the existing uses.
The test changes in cs-cs.ll in particular illustrate a previously
clearly incorrect AA result: We were effectively assuming that
argmemonly functions were only allowed to access their arguments
after the passed pointer, but not before it. I'm pretty sure that
this was not intentional, and it's certainly not specified by
LangRef that way.

When constructing a MemoryLocation by hand, require that a

If getClobberingMemoryAccess() is called with an explicit
MemoryLocation, but the starting access happens to be a call, the
provided location is currently ignored, and alias analysis queries
will be performed against the call instruction instead. Something
similar happens if the starting access is a load with a MemoryDef.
Change the implementation to not set Q.Inst in the first place if
we want to perform a MemoryLocation-based query, to make sure it
can't be turned into an Instruction-based query along the way...
Additionally, remove the special handling that lifetime.start
intrinsics currently get. They simply report NoAlias for clobbers
between lifetime.start and other calls, but that's obviously not
right if the other call is something like a memset or memcpy. The
default behavior we get from getModRefInfo() will already do the
right thing here.

1ce82015f6 added a fix to restrict phi optimizations after phi
translations. But the current use of performedPhiTranslation only
checked whether phi translation happened for the first iterator and
missed cases where phi translations happens at subsequent
iterators/upwards defs.
This patch changes upward_defs_iteartor to take a pointer to a bool, so
we can easily ensure the final value includes all visited defs, while
still being able to conveniently use it with make_range & co.
Merging alias results from different paths, when a path did phi
translation is not necesarily correct. Conservatively terminate such paths.
Aimed to fix PR46156.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D84905
Summary:
A valid DominatorTree is needed to do PhiTranslation.
Before this patch, a MemoryUse could be optimized to an access outside a loop, while the address it loads from is modified in the loop.
This can lead to a miscompile.
