Geoff Romer ae3c4266d4 Add separators between files in LLVM IR dumps (#7463)
Each file dump now starts with a `; ---` comment and ends with a blank
line. This makes it easier to visually scan the dump for a file of
interest. The comment format is somewhat arbitrary; I chose `---` to
align with the `--- filename.carbon` separator in SemIR dumps, but
without the filename, because that appears on each of the next two lines
already.

Richard Smith cefa0397bb More fixes to package and library fingerprinting. (#7297)
Fix import logic to make all imported packages be children of the
`NameScopeId::Package` scope. Previously, indirectly-imported packages
would end up as children of their importing package's scope, which
resulted in them not being treated as packages at all, and in particular
not being fingerprinted as packages.

Fixing that caused a failure in the fingerprinting logic as we started
to encounter packages with no correspoding import scopes. Instead of
looking for import scopes, use a simpler mechanism to map packages to
their package names, and clean up.

Unfortunately the latter change churns all the fingerprints again :(
Hopefully this is the last time for a while.

Richard Smith f5e9c61f11 Don't include the library name in most fingerprints. (#7292)
When we import from another library in the same package, its entities
end up with our library as their parent scope, resulting in cross-file
fingerprint mismatches. Instead, only include the library ID when
fingerprinting either a package-private entity or an `ImportIRId` that
refers to a particular `SemIR::File`.

Richard Smith 05cc09daca Fix cross-package signature mismatches. (#7232)
Fixes link failures when referencing a symbol involving a fingerprint
from a different package.

Previously we included the `Namespace`'s `import_id` as part of its
fingerprint, which caused local and imported namespaces to get different
fingerprints. We now store the `import_id` on the `NameScope` instead of
on the `Namespace` inst to avoid this problem.

Also, when we reach a package-level `NameScopeId`, consistently
fingerprint it as a (package name, library name) pair. Previously the
fingerprinting depended on whether it was imported or not, as an
imported `NameScopeId` had a parent scope (the current package). We need
to include the library name here so that private entities with the same
name in different libraries have different fingerprints.

Lucile Rose Nihlen bc1ae703c3 return 0 from Run when it doesn't specify a return value (#7180)
https://carbon.compiler-explorer.com/z/88K9Kh5Wo shows the program
exiting with a garbage value copied from uninitialized memory.

This PR modifies `lower` to detect if the function lowered is the
entry point and doesn't specify a return type. If so, it emits
different LLVM IR to return int32 0, and modifies the lowered
function signature to match the int32 return type.

Jon Ross-Perkinsandjonmeow 9266ced4e3 Improve CanDestroyType to handle remaining cases (#6943)
This is only fixing the decision about *whether* to produce a witness.
Implementation of the witness is still a TODO, though where a body is
generated, it should also precisely reflect where one _needs_ to be
generated.

Note the tests:

- toolchain/lower/testdata/function/generic/import_core_witness.carbon
- toolchain/lower/testdata/function/generic/import_unused_def.carbon

These tests can probably be produced _without_ Core.Destroy, but I found
the essence of them while trying to build //examples with Core.Destroy
and a simpler minimization wasn't striking me.

Burak Emir 992d435023 Replace unused bindings with anonymous binding in lower/testdata. (#6479)
This updates lower/testdata to use _ instead of proper names, in order
to avoid the "unused binding" warnings from #2022 which are being
implemented. These changes do not depend on the implementation which
should make everything easier to review.

See #6460 with part 1 of the implementation. It was split upon request
in order to make reviewing easier, the original state of the PR was
updating hundreds of test cases.
The PR has thus been split, part 2 including test cases changes can be
viewed at
https://github.com/burakemir/carbon-lang/tree/unused_pattern_bindings_p2022_impl_part2
... many tests need to be updated, so it seems best to get those tests
out of the way that are not interesting.

These are not all tests in lower/testdata - a few of them are
interesting in the sense that they cannot use '_' because it leads to
failed redeclaration check. This is exactly the scenario described in
#3763 which requires the 'unused' marker. Those are left untouched here
but are updated in
https://github.com/burakemir/carbon-lang/tree/unused_pattern_bindings_p2022_impl_part2

David BlaikieandDana Jansens a179bd461b Start plumbing through debug info type information with function parameters/return value (#6410)
This adds just enough debug info for i32/int parameters and return
values, with a path forward for adding DWARF type metadata for other
types.

As it happens, return type information is carried separately from
parameter information:
* Return type information is carried in the `type` of the `DISubprogram`
  (as a `DISubroutineType` - which does carry parameter type information
  as well, but that's unused when the DWARF is emitted by LLVM)
* Parameter information is carried by `DILocalVariable`s with a non-zero
  `arg` value (representing the order of function parameters)

In the absence of locations for the parameters (future work), nothing
would usually keep the `DILocalVariable` live/reachable when emitting
DWARF - so for cases where this can happen (for clang, this happens in
optimized builds where all references to the parameter variable might be
optimized away) the variables can be "retained" in a list on the
`DISubprogram` - achieved by passing `AlwaysPreserve` parameter to
`createParameterVariable` (adds them to a list, then that list gets
attached to the `DISubprogram` when it's finalized later)

For now, any unsupported types are emitted as `void*` (except void
return, which is implemented as void) as a placeholder.

Given this example:
```
import Core library "io";
class MyClass {
}
fn Unsupported(v: MyClass) {
}
fn Ret() -> i32 {
  return 42;
}
fn Arg(x: i32) {
  Core.Print(x);
}
fn Run() {
}
```
this is the resulting DWARF:
```
DW_TAG_compile_unit
  DW_AT_name    ("test.carbon")
  DW_TAG_subprogram
    DW_AT_name  ("Unsupported")
    DW_TAG_formal_parameter
      DW_AT_type        (0x00000066 "void *")
  DW_TAG_subprogram
    DW_AT_name  ("Ret")
    DW_AT_type  (0x00000062 "int")
  DW_TAG_subprogram
    DW_AT_name  ("Arg")
    DW_TAG_formal_parameter
      DW_AT_type        (0x00000062 "int")
  DW_TAG_subprogram
    DW_AT_name  ("Run")
  DW_TAG_base_type
    DW_AT_name  ("int")
  DW_TAG_pointer_type
```
And the debugger:
```
(gdb) p Ret()
$1 = 42
(gdb) p Arg(4)
4
$2 = void
```

I'm not sure if there's a way this logic should be merged with the logic
for making the `llvm::Function` type (which the `DISubroutineType`
building code was inspired by/copied from) - since they're done at
different times/places, I don't think there's an easy way to do it in
one pass, but maybe the code can be shared (even if it's run twice) in
some generic `SemIR::Function` type walker.

David Blaikie bb9942823f DebugInfo: Emit as "C++" rather than "C" (#6361)
This helps at least lldb handle calling functions (currently the debug
info describes every function as `void()`, so no parameters or return
values are supported) - seems gdb and lldb both depend on demangling to
varying degrees in C code (marking a function as "prototyped" in C in
DWARF does seem to also address this problem).

Given:
```
fn PrintThree() {
  Core.Print(3);
}
```
Before:
```
  (lldb) p PrintThree()
  error: Couldn't look up symbols:
    PrintThree
  Hint: The expression tried to call a function that is not present in
    the target, perhaps because it was optimized out by the compiler.
```
After:
```
  (lldb) p PrintThree()
  3
  (lldb)
```

aa69a484eb Add support for running LLVM optimizer. (#6225)
Adds a flag `--optimize=<mode>` that specifies what to optimize for:

* `--optimize=none` turns off the optimizer as much as possible, but
still respects always_inline.
* `--optimize=debug` aims to be the equivalent of `-Og` / `-O1`, and
provides optimizations that don't affect the ability to debug the
program. This is the default.
* `--optimize=size` optimizes for the size of the produced program, and
aims to be the equivalent of `-Oz`.
* `--optimize=speed` optimizes for the execution time of the produced
program, and aims to be the equivalent of `-O3`.

Following the approach taken by Clang, the optimization level feeds into
both the configuration of the LLVM pass pipeline and the attributes
added to function definitions generated by the frontend.

Optimization is performed in a new phase, `optimize`, which runs between
`lower` and `codegen`.

Dana Jansens bff601e417 Add min-preludes to most of lowering and a few more slow tests (#5680)
Adds min-preludes to a few more slowest tests, and adds them to most of
the lowering tests, with a few exceptions that make use of operators.
This take the runtime of file_test down from about 8s to about 7s on my
machine.

We add support for Negate on uints in the min-preludes.

Jon Ross-Perkins 2929254168 Update LLVM version, fix breaks (#4886)
- The actual reason I started this: minor lowering updates in the golden
LLVM IR
- Process.inc changed enough to need a patch context update.
- https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/123126 added `proto_library`
uses without a `load`, which is broken in bazel 8
- Just commenting these out because we don't use them. I'll follow up
separately about a possible fix, but continuing to use `WORKSPACE` is a
bigger issue LLVM probably should address.
- Note this update is also triggering removal of `migrate_cpp`, in #4887

Richard Smith c04d62a7d1 Ensure that all allocas are created in the entry block. (#4685)
Non-entry-block allocas will allocate new stack memory each time they're
reached, resulting in leaking stack memory over time for allocas in a
loop. Move all such allocas to the entry block instead, and use an LLVM
intrinsic to mark when the lifetime of the variable actually begins.

a548eff0bb Rudimentary name mangling support (#4267)
This seems to be enough to avoid naming collisions for functions in any
of the current test cases (verified by asserting that the name of the
`llvm::Function` matches the name passed to create it - not triggering
LLVM's numbering that happens when names collide)

It currently implements mangling for namespace scopes, class scopes, and
impls.
Nothing generic is mangled yet - haven't looked at how that works,
though evidently it's not covered by existing testing, I guess.

Follow-up change will document the current mangling algorithm in
`toolchain/docs/lower.md`

David Blaikie 67b287a2f2 DebugInfo: Add the name as-written, separate from the mangled name (#4253)
There's not much mangling happening yet - but Run -> main (and some
overloading numbering happening, maybe LLVM is doing that 'helpfully'
under the hood?) is enough to demonstrate this improvement/fix.

Ah, here it is:
```

```

That's where LLVM decides to make a new name (name.number) when asked to
create a new global with the same name as an existing global.

It's not a valid mangling scheme - since the name won't be stable
between different compilations, but it is enough to make
single-compilation code build/run for now.

Seems to work with lldb ( https://pastebin.com/igKkNECm ), though gdb

David BlaikieandJon Ross-Perkins c5ada29ba9 Add filename and line number to function debug info metadata (#4243)
Refactors a bunch of the SemIRDiagnosticConverter to be able to use that
from Lower to access source locations there to use in debug info.

I assume some of this is a bit jank/would need to be fixed/improved in
the future - like the context functor that's passed into ConvertLoc?
(not totally clear what that's for/what the debug info will be missing
out on in its absence, I could throw a FIXME in there if you like)

David BlaikieandJon Ross-Perkins ea8ad22a17 Add function debug info descriptions (#4233)
Still doesn't have line tables, so of limited value (at least now
this'll be enough that LLVM really generates debug info into the
resulting object file (whereas with only the compilation unit metadata,
LLVM will consider it empty and avoid emitting any of it)) - but another
step along the path.

This also doesn't attach the right source location to the functions -
I'll do that in a follow-up change because I think it'll require the
majority of the refactoring between driver and check to extract the
essential functionality sem_ir_diagnostic_converter, I think, to allow
retrieving source locations during lowering.

d57aa57215 Add rudimentry debug info metadata emission (#4225)
This adds just the debug info metadata for Compilation Units (the top
level container of debug info) - but without anything in them, LLVM
won't emit them at all, so while this is testable at the IR level, it
isn't observable at the object level until more debug info is added.

A couple of starting points in this patch:
* A flag (`--debug-info`, seems to match the naming/style of other flags
in the carbon driver, though this is different from the naming
conventions of clang/gcc) that enables debug info when lowering. Open to
other names/approaches (on by default? historically debug info's been to
large/expensive to do this, so sticking with that precedent for now).
* Enabling that flag by default in the lowering tests - I do find the
churn on golden tests a bit rough, and adding more features to all the
tests means more churn, but it seems consistent with the approach so far
- keep an eye on this and perhaps revisit this if the churn gets too
annoying

Jon Ross-Perkins 83413479d7 Move some of the test information to TIP lines (#4007)
This has is a nice-to-have for me. Frequently I want to run a specific
test, and end up digging through output to be able to copy-paste the run
line. This uses TIP lines to inject the command into the file when using
AUTOUPDATE.

Note, one of the reasons I want this is because "bazel test
//toolchain/testing:file_test --test_output=all" has been regularly
exceeding bazel's output limit for me (workaround is either opening the
output file or specifying an obscure output limit flag), making it a
little harder for me to get the commands. However, frequently I'm adding
a file and want to iterate on it, so that's really the use case I have
in mind here.

Richard Smith 3776c068de Unify instruction naming between SemIR and LLVM IR (#3898)
Factor out `SemIR::InstNamer` and also use it when lowering to LLVM IR.
Automatically name all instructions created with our `IRBuilder` based
on the name computed by the `InstNamer`, and likewise name basic blocks
using the label generated by the `InstNamer`.

Move some of the existing naming logic out from lower into `InstNamer`
so that it's also used in SemIR. In particular, we now name call
instructions after their callee, or after the builtin name for calls to
builtins.

Computing and adding these names isn't completely free. This instruction
naming is designed to be optional, so that we can turn it off for builds
where the LLVM IR will only be converted to assembly and won't be seen
by a human, but so far it's enabled unconditionally. We can tune that
later as needed.
