[mlir][ptr] Add ConstantOp with NullAttr and AddressAttr support
This patch introduces the `ptr.constant` operation. It also adds the `NullAttr`
and `AddressAttr` for representing null pointers, and integer raw addresses.
It also implements LLVM IR translation for `ptr.constant` with `#ptr.null` or
`#ptr.address` attributes.
Finally, it extends `FieldParser` to support APInt parsing.
Example:
```mlir
llvm.func @constant_address_op() ->
!llvm.struct<(!ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<0>>,
!ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<1>>,
!ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<2>>)> {
%0 = ptr.constant #ptr.null : !ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<0>>
%1 = ptr.constant #ptr.address<0x1000> : !ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<1>>
%2 = ptr.constant #ptr.address<3735928559> : !ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<2>>
%3 = llvm.mlir.poison : !llvm.struct<(!ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<0>>, !ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<1>>, !ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<2>>)>
%4 = llvm.insertvalue %0, %3[0] : !llvm.struct<(!ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<0>>, !ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<1>>, !ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<2>>)>
%5 = llvm.insertvalue %1, %4[1] : !llvm.struct<(!ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<0>>, !ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<1>>, !ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<2>>)>
%6 = llvm.insertvalue %2, %5[2] : !llvm.struct<(!ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<0>>, !ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<1>>, !ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<2>>)>
llvm.return %6 : !llvm.struct<(!ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<0>>, !ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<1>>, !ptr.ptr<#llvm.address_space<2>>)>
}
```
Result of translation to LLVM IR:
```llvm
define { ptr, ptr addrspace(1), ptr addrspace(2) } @constant_address_op() {
ret { ptr, ptr addrspace(1), ptr addrspace(2) } { ptr null, ptr addrspace(1) inttoptr (i64 4096 to ptr addrspace(1)), ptr addrspace(2) inttoptr (i64 3735928559 to ptr addrspace(2)) }
}
```
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.
Join the LLVM Discourse forums, Discord chat, LLVM Office Hours or Regular sync-ups.
The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
