and extern_weak_odr. These are the same as the non-odr versions,
except that they indicate that the global will only be overridden
by an *equivalent* global. In C, a function with weak linkage can
be overridden by a function which behaves completely differently.
This means that IP passes have to skip weak functions, since any
deductions made from the function definition might be wrong, since
the definition could be replaced by something completely different
at link time. This is not allowed in C++, thanks to the ODR
(One-Definition-Rule): if a function is replaced by another at
link-time, then the new function must be the same as the original
function. If a language knows that a function or other global can
only be overridden by an equivalent global, it can give it the
weak_odr linkage type, and the optimizers will understand that it
is alright to make deductions based on the function body. The
code generators on the other hand map weak and weak_odr linkage
to the same thing.

that has not been JIT'd yet, the callee is put on a list of pending functions
to JIT. The call is directed through a stub, which is updated with the address
of the function after it has been JIT'd. A new interface for allocating and
updating empty stubs is provided.
Add support for removing the ModuleProvider the JIT was created with, which
would otherwise invalidate the JIT's PassManager, which is initialized with the
ModuleProvider's Module.
Add support under a new ExecutionEngine flag for emitting the infomration
necessary to update Function and GlobalVariable stubs after JITing them, by
recording the address of the stub and the name of the GlobalValue. This allows
code to be copied from one address space to another, where libraries may live
at different virtual addresses, and have the stubs updated with their new
correct target addresses.

are represented as "weak", but there are subtle differences
in some cases on Darwin, so we need both. The intent
is that "common" will behave identically to "weak" unless
somebody changes their target to do something else.
No functional change as yet.

that merely add passes. This allows them to be used with either
FunctionPassManager or PassManager, or even with a custom new
kind of pass manager.

should only effect x86 when using long double. Now
12/16 bytes are output for long double globals (the
exact amount depends on the alignment). This brings
globals in line with the rest of LLVM: the space
reserved for an object is now always the ABI size.
One tricky point is that only 10 bytes should be
output for long double if it is a field in a packed
struct, which is the reason for the additional
argument to EmitGlobalConstant.

Use APFloat in UpgradeParser and AsmParser.
Change all references to ConstantFP to use the
APFloat interface rather than double. Remove
the ConstantFP double interfaces.
Use APFloat functions for constant folding arithmetic
and comparisons.
(There are still way too many places APFloat is
just a wrapper around host float/double, but we're
getting there.)

Implement the arbitrary bit-width integer feature. The feature allows
integers of any bitwidth (up to 64) to be defined instead of just 1, 8,
16, 32, and 64 bit integers.
This change does several things:
1. Introduces a new Derived Type, IntegerType, to represent the number of
bits in an integer. The Type classes SubclassData field is used to
store the number of bits. This allows 2^23 bits in an integer type.
2. Removes the five integer Type::TypeID values for the 1, 8, 16, 32 and
64-bit integers. These are replaced with just IntegerType which is not
a primitive any more.
3. Adjust the rest of LLVM to account for this change.
Note that while this incremental change lays the foundation for arbitrary
bit-width integers, LLVM has not yet been converted to actually deal with
them in any significant way. Most optimization passes, for example, will
still only deal with the byte-width integer types. Future increments
will rectify this situation.

Three changes:
1. Convert signed integer types to signless versions.
2. Implement the @sext and @zext parameter attributes. Previously the
type of an function parameter was used to determine whether it should
be sign extended or zero extended before the call. This information is
now communicated via the function type's parameter attributes.
3. The interface to LowerCallTo had to be changed in order to accommodate
the parameter attribute information. Although it would have been
convenient to pass in the FunctionType itself, there isn't always one
present in the caller. Consequently, a signedness indication for the
result type and for each parameter was provided for in the interface
to this method. All implementations were changed to make the adjustment
necessary.
