//
// This file defines the TypeBasedAliasAnalysis pass, which implements
// metadata-based TBAA.
//
// In LLVM IR, memory does not have types, so LLVM's own type system is not
// suitable for doing TBAA. Instead, metadata is added to the IR to describe
// a type system of a higher level language. This can be used to implement
// typical C/C++ TBAA, but it can also be used to implement custom alias
// analysis behavior for other languages.
//
// We now support two types of metadata format: scalar TBAA and struct-path
// aware TBAA. After all testing cases are upgraded to use struct-path aware
// TBAA and we can auto-upgrade existing bc files, the support for scalar TBAA
// can be dropped.
//
// The scalar TBAA metadata format is very simple. TBAA MDNodes have up to
// three fields, e.g.:
//   !0 = !{ !"an example type tree" }
//   !1 = !{ !"int", !0 }
//   !2 = !{ !"float", !0 }
//   !3 = !{ !"const float", !2, i64 1 }
//
// The first field is an identity field. It can be any value, usually
// an MDString, which uniquely identifies the type. The most important
// name in the tree is the name of the root node. Two trees with
// different root node names are entirely disjoint, even if they
// have leaves with common names.
//
// The second field identifies the type's parent node in the tree, or
// is null or omitted for a root node. A type is considered to alias
// all of its descendants and all of its ancestors in the tree. Also,
// a type is considered to alias all types in other trees, so that
// bitcode produced from multiple front-ends is handled conservatively.
//
// If the third field is present, it's an integer which if equal to 1
// indicates that the type is "constant" (meaning pointsToConstantMemory
// should return true; see
// http://llvm.org/docs/AliasAnalysis.html#OtherItfs).
//
// With struct-path aware TBAA, the MDNodes attached to an instruction using
// "!tbaa" are called path tag nodes.
//
// The path tag node has 4 fields with the last field being optional.
//
// The first field is the base type node, it can be a struct type node
// or a scalar type node. The second field is the access type node, it
// must be a scalar type node. The third field is the offset into the base type.
// The last field has the same meaning as the last field of our scalar TBAA:
// it's an integer which if equal to 1 indicates that the access is "constant".
//
// The struct type node has a name and a list of pairs, one pair for each member
// of the struct. The first element of each pair is a type node (a struct type
// node or a scalar type node), specifying the type of the member, the second
// element of each pair is the offset of the member.
//
// Given an example
// typedef struct {
//   short s;
// } A;
// typedef struct {
//   uint16_t s;
//   A a;
// } B;
//
// For an access to B.a.s, we attach !5 (a path tag node) to the load/store
// instruction. The base type is !4 (struct B), the access type is !2 (scalar
// type short) and the offset is 4.
//
// !0 = !{!"Simple C/C++ TBAA"}
// !1 = !{!"omnipotent char", !0} // Scalar type node
// !2 = !{!"short", !1}           // Scalar type node
// !3 = !{!"A", !2, i64 0}        // Struct type node
// !4 = !{!"B", !2, i64 0, !3, i64 4}
//                                                           // Struct type node
// !5 = !{!4, !2, i64 4}          // Path tag node
//
// The struct type nodes and the scalar type nodes form a type DAG.
//         Root (!0)
//         char (!1)  -- edge to Root
//         short (!2) -- edge to char
//         A (!3) -- edge with offset 0 to short
//         B (!4) -- edge with offset 0 to short and edge with offset 4 to A
//
// To check if two tags (tagX and tagY) can alias, we start from the base type
// of tagX, follow the edge with the correct offset in the type DAG and adjust
// the offset until we reach the base type of tagY or until we reach the Root
// node.
// If we reach the base type of tagY, compare the adjusted offset with
// offset of tagY, return Alias if the offsets are the same, return NoAlias
// otherwise.
// If we reach the Root node, perform the above starting from base type of tagY
// to see if we reach base type of tagX.
//
// If they have different roots, they're part of different potentially
// unrelated type systems, so we return Alias to be conservative.
// If neither node is an ancestor of the other and they have the same root,
// then we say NoAlias.
//
// TODO: The current metadata format doesn't support struct
// fields. For example:
//   struct X {
//     double d;
//     int i;
//   };
//   void foo(struct X *x, struct X *y, double *p) {
//     *x = *y;
//     *p = 0.0;
//   }
// Struct X has a double member, so the store to *x can alias the store to *p.
// Currently it's not possible to precisely describe all the things struct X
// aliases, so struct assignments must use conservative TBAA nodes. There's
// no scheme for attaching metadata to @llvm.memcpy yet either.
