Some floating point lib calls have ABI attributes that need to be set on
the caller. Found via D103412.

this is kinda ugly, but I'm not sure of a nicer way to do it. Maybe a new method on AttributeList that merges attributes?
ldexp() and friends are the only functions that have ABI attributes set (setSignExtendedArg())
I'd suggest something like:
CI->setAttributes(CI->getCalledFunction()->getAttributes().removeAttributes(Ctx, llvm::AttributeList::FunctionIndex)));
That should take the callee's attribute list, throw away all function index attributes (things like SSE level, noreturn, noinline, alwaysinline, optnone), and apply the return and parameter attributes. It should also create fewer immortal, immutable, but temporary attribute lists.
The problem is that right above, we already call
CI->setAttributes()
and a second one would overwrite that.
I was thinking of adding something new to merge two AttributeLists, but idk
You're right, I don't see a way to directly merge two AttributeList objects. I looked at AttrBuilder::merge, but AttrBuilder makes AttributeSet objects. I guess it makes sense to have an AttributeList method to do this.
lgtm
There's some horrifying index manipulation involving unsigned overflow that I had to avoid by checking if either AttributeList is empty.
By horrifying, surely you mean far too clever for anyone's best interests. =D
It'd be nice to not have AttributeList::AttrIndex::FunctionIndex = ~0U.
I had a patch to do that back in 2017, but the reviewers at the time felt it was too risky:
https://reviews.llvm.org/D32819#749163
https://reviews.llvm.org/D32819?id=98222#inline-286125
We could try again, but it has the potential to break frontends in ways that are hard to debug.
use existing AttributeList merge method
I completely missed that this one already existed
