Without this patch, migrateDebugInfo doesn't understand how to handle existing fragments that are smaller than the to-be-split store. This can occur if. e.g. a vector store (1 dbg.assign) is split (many dbg.assigns - 1 fragment for each scalar) and later those stores are re-vectorized (many dbg.assigns), and then SROA runs on that.
The approach taken in this patch is to drop intrinsics with fragments outside of the slice.
For example, starting with:
store <2 x float> %v, ptr %dest !DIAssignID !1 call void @llvm.dbg.assign(..., DIExpression(DW_OP_LLVM_fragment, 0, 32), !1, ...) call void @llvm.dbg.assign(..., DIExpression(DW_OP_LLVM_fragment, 32, 32), !1, ...)
When visiting the slice of bits 0 to 31 we get:
store float v.extract.0, ptr %dest !DIAssignID !2 call void @llvm.dbg.assign(..., DIExpression(DW_OP_LLVM_fragment, 0, 32), !2, ...)
The other dbg.assign associated with the currently-split store is dropped for this split part. And visiting bits 32 to 63 we get the following:
store float v.extract.1, ptr %adjusted.dest !DIAssignID !3 call void @llvm.dbg.assign(..., DIExpression(DW_OP_LLVM_fragment, 32, 32), !3, ...)
I've added two tests that cover this case.
Implementing this meant re-writing the fragment-calculation part of migrateDebugInfo to work with the absolute offset of the new slice in terms of the base alloca (instead of the offset of the slice into the new alloca), the fragment (if any) of the variable associated with the base alloca, and the fragment associated with the split store. Because we need the offset into the base alloca for the variables being split, some careful wiring is required for memory intrinsics due to the fact that memory intrinsics can be split when either the source or dest allocas are split. In the case where the source alloca drives the splitting, we need to be careful to pass migrateDebugInfo the information in relation to the dest alloca.
Nit so small you'd need an electron microscope (so feel free to ignore if you disagree), but imo if an illustrative example is being used to demonstrate that this returns the sum of the size and offset, they should both be non-zero values to make it clear that it's the sum and not just selecting the size.
