* [GlobalMerge] Use private linkage for MergedGlobals variablesJohn Brawn2015-08-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Other objects can never reference the MergedGlobals symbol so external linkage is never needed. Using private instead of internal linkage means the object is more similar to what it looks like when global merging is not enabled, with the only difference being that the merged variables are addressed indirectly relative to the start of the section they are in. Also add aliases for merged variables with internal linkage, as this also makes the object be more like what it is when they are not merged.

* [GlobalMerge] Look at uses to create smaller global sets.Ahmed Bougacha2015-04-181-0/+63
Instead of merging everything together, look at the users of GlobalVariables, and try to group them by function, to create sets of globals used "together". Using that information, a less-aggressive alternative is to keep merging everything together *except* globals that are only ever used alone, that is, those for which it's clearly non-profitable to merge with others. In my testing, grouping by Function is too aggressive, but grouping by BasicBlock is too conservative. Anything in-between isn't trivially available, so stick with Function grouping for now. cl::opts are added for testing; both enabled by default. A few of the testcases aren't testing the merging proper, but just various edge cases when merging does occur. Update them to use the previous grouping behavior. Also, one of the tests is unrelated to GlobalMerge; change it accordingly. While there, switch to r234666' flags rather than the brutal -O3.
