734e73342d [RS4GC] Update and simplify handling of Constants in findBaseDefiningValueOfVector().
Summary:
This is analogous to r256079, which removed an overly strong assertion, and
r256812, which simplified the code by replacing three conditionals by one.

d71999ef1b [gc.statepoint] Change gc.statepoint intrinsic's return type to token type instead of i32 type
Summary: This patch changes gc.statepoint intrinsic's return type to token type instead of i32 type. Using token types could prevent LLVM to merge different gc.statepoint nodes into PHI nodes and cause further problems with gc relocations. The patch also changes the way on how gc.relocate and gc.result look for their corresponding gc.statepoint on unwind path. The current implementation uses the selector value extracted from a { i8*, i32 } landingpad as a hook to find the gc.statepoint, while the patch directly uses a token type landingpad (http://reviews.llvm.org/D15405) to find the gc.statepoint.

5d54689bca [RS4GC] Remove an overly strong assertion
As shown by the included test case, it's reasonable to end up with constant references during base pointer calculation.  The code actually handled this case just fine, we only had the assert to help isolate problems under the belief that constant references shouldn't be present in IR generated by managed frontends. This turned out to be wrong on two fronts: 1) Manual Jacobs is working on a language with constant references, and b) we found a case where the optimizer does create them in practice.

a1d39ba940 [Statepoints] Support for "patchable" statepoints.
Summary:
This change adds two new parameters to the statepoint intrinsic, `i64 id`
and `i32 num_patch_bytes`.  `id` gets propagated to the ID field
in the generated StackMap section.  If the `num_patch_bytes` is
non-zero then the statepoint is lowered to `num_patch_bytes` bytes of
nops instead of a call (the spill and reload code remains unchanged).
A non-zero `num_patch_bytes` is useful in situations where a language
runtime requires complete control over how a call is lowered.

This change brings statepoints one step closer to patchpoints.  With
some additional work (that is not part of this patch) it should be
possible to get rid of `TargetOpcode::STATEPOINT` altogether.

PlaceSafepoints generates `statepoint` wrappers with `id` set to
`0xABCDEF00` (the old default value for the ID reported in the stackmap)
and `num_patch_bytes` set to `0`.  This can be made more sophisticated
later.

cc0431d1c0 Extend the statepoint intrinsic to allow statepoints to be marked as transitions from GC-aware code to code that is not GC-aware.
This changes the shape of the statepoint intrinsic from:

  @llvm.experimental.gc.statepoint(anyptr target, i32 # call args, i32 unused, ...call args, i32 # deopt args, ...deopt args, ...gc args)

to:

  @llvm.experimental.gc.statepoint(anyptr target, i32 # call args, i32 flags, ...call args, i32 # transition args, ...transition args, i32 # deopt args, ...deopt args, ...gc args)

This extension offers the backend the opportunity to insert (somewhat) arbitrary code to manage the transition from GC-aware code to code that is not GC-aware and back.

In order to support the injection of transition code, this extension wraps the STATEPOINT ISD node generated by the usual lowering lowering with two additional nodes: GC_TRANSITION_START and GC_TRANSITION_END. The transition arguments that were passed passed to the intrinsic (if any) are lowered and provided as operands to these nodes and may be used by the backend during code generation.

Eventually, the lowering of the GC_TRANSITION_{START,END} nodes should be informed by the GC strategy in use for the function containing the intrinsic call; for now, these nodes are instead replaced with no-ops.

63294cbb6a [RewriteStatepointsForGC] Exclude constant values from being considered live at a safepoint
There can be various constant pointers in the IR which do not get relocated at a safepoint. One example is the address of a global variable. Another example is a pointer created via inttoptr. Note that the optimizer itself likes to create such inttoptrs when locally propagating constants through dynamically dead code.

To deal with this, we need to exclude uses of constants from contributing to the liveness of a safepoint which might reach that use. At some later date, it might be worth exploring what could be done to support the relocation of various special types of "constants", but that's future work.
