[BPI] Transfer value-handles when assign/move constructing BPI (#77774) Background: BPI stores a collection of edge branch-probabilities, and also a set of Callback value-handles for the blocks in the edge-collection. When a block is deleted, BPI's eraseBlock method is called to clear the edge-collection of references to that block, to avoid dangling pointers. However, when move-constructing or assigning a BPI object, the edge-collection gets moved, but the value-handles are discarded. This can lead to to stale entries in the edge-collection when blocks are deleted without the callback -- not normally a problem, but if a new block is allocated with the same address as an old block, spurious branch probabilities will be recorded about it. The fix is to transfer the handles from the source BPI object. This was exposed by an unrelated debug-info change, it probably just shifted around allocation orders to expose this. Detected as nondeterminism and reduced by Zequan Wu: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/f1b0a544514f3d343f32a41de9d6fb0b6cbb6021#commitcomment-136737090 (No test because IMHO testing for a behaviour that varies with memory allocators is likely futile; I can add the reproducer with a CHECK for the relevant branch weights if it's desired though)
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
