// Instrumentation that is beneficial for bitcode sections used in LTO may
// need to be cleaned up to finish non-LTO compilation. llvm.checked.load is
// an example of an instruction that we want to preserve for LTO, but is
// incorrect to leave unchanged during the per-TU compilation in FatLTO.

// Replaces uses of llvm.type.checked.load instructions with unchecked loads.
// In essence, we're undoing the frontends instrumentation, since it isn't
// correct for the non-LTO part of a FatLTO object.
//
// llvm.type.checked.load instruction sequences always have a particular form:
//
// clang-format off
//
//   %0 = tail call { ptr, i1 } @llvm.type.checked.load(ptr %vtable, i32 0, metadata !"foo"), !nosanitize !0
//   %1 = extractvalue { ptr, i1 } %0, 1, !nosanitize !0
//   br i1 %1, label %cont2, label %trap1, !nosanitize !0
//
// trap1:                                            ; preds = %entry
//   tail call void @llvm.ubsantrap(i8 2) #3, !nosanitize !0
//   unreachable, !nosanitize !0
//
// cont2:                                            ; preds = %entry
//   %2 = extractvalue { ptr, i1 } %0, 0, !nosanitize !0
//   %call = tail call noundef i64 %2(ptr noundef nonnull align 8 dereferenceable(8) %p1) #4
//
// clang-format on
//
// In this sequence, the vtable pointer is first loaded and checked against some
// metadata. The result indicates failure, then the program traps. On the
// success path, the pointer is used to make an indirect call to the function
// pointer loaded from the vtable.
//
// Since we won't be able to lower this correctly later in non-LTO builds, we
// need to drop the special load and trap, and emit a normal load of the
// function pointer from the vtable.
//
// This is straight forward, since the checked load can be replaced w/ a load
// of the vtable pointer and a GEP instruction to index into the vtable and get
// the correct method/function pointer. We replace the "check" with a constant
// indicating success, which allows later passes to simplify control flow and
// remove any now dead instructions.
//
// This logic holds for both llvm.type.checked.load and
// llvm.type.checked.load.relative instructions.
