<content type='text'>
Unlike in Itanium EH IR, WinEH IR's unwinding instructions (e.g.
`invoke`s) can have multiple possible unwind destinations.

For example:
```ll
entry:
  invoke void @foo()
     to label %cont unwind label %catch.dispatch

catch.dispatch:                                ; preds = %entry
  %0 = catchswitch within none [label %catch.start] unwind label %terminate

catch.start:                                   ; preds = %catch.dispatch
  %1 = catchpad within %0 [ptr null]
  ...

terminate:                                     ; preds = %catch.dispatch
  %2 = catchpad within none []
  ...
...
```

In this case, if an exception is not caught by `catch.dispatch` (and
thus `catch.start`), it should next unwind to `terminate`.
`findUnwindDestination` in ISel gathers the list of this unwind
destinations traversing the unwind edges:

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/ae42f071032b29821beef6a33771258086bbbb1c/llvm/lib/CodeGen/SelectionDAG/SelectionDAGBuilder.cpp#L2089-L2150
But we don't use that, and instead use our custom
`findWasmUnwindDestinations` that only adds the first unwind
destination, `catch.start`, to the successor list of `entry`, and not
`terminate`:

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/ae42f071032b29821beef6a33771258086bbbb1c/llvm/lib/CodeGen/SelectionDAG/SelectionDAGBuilder.cpp#L2037-L2087

The reason behind it was, as described in the comment block in the code,
it was assumed that there always would be an `invoke` that connects
`catch.start` and `terminate`. In case of `catch (type)`, there will be
`call void @llvm.wasm.rethrow()` in `catch.start`'s predecessor that
unwinds to the next destination. For example:

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/0db702ac8e06911478615ac537f75ac778817c04/llvm/test/CodeGen/WebAssembly/exception.ll#L429-L430
In case of `catch (...)`, `__cxa_end_catch` can throw, so it becomes an
`invoke` that unwinds to the next destination. For example:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/0db702ac8e06911478615ac537f75ac778817c04/llvm/test/CodeGen/WebAssembly/exception.ll#L537-L538
So the unwind ordering relationship between `catch.start` and
`terminate` here would be preserved.

But turns out this assumption does not always hold. For example:
```ll
entry:
  invoke void @foo()
     to label %cont unwind label %catch.dispatch

catch.dispatch:                                ; preds = %entry
  %0 = catchswitch within none [label %catch.start] unwind label %terminate

catch.start:                                   ; preds = %catch.dispatch
  %1 = catchpad within %0 [ptr null]
  ...
  call void @_ZSt9terminatev()
  unreachable

terminate:                                     ; preds = %catch.dispatch
  %2 = catchpad within none []
  call void @_ZSt9terminatev()
  unreachable
...
```
In this case there is no `invoke` that connects `catch.start` to
`terminate`. So after `catch.dispatch` BB is removed in ISel,
`terminate` is considered unreachable and incorrectly removed in DCE.

This makes Wasm just use the general `findUnwindDestination`. In that
case `entry`'s successor is going to be [`catch.start`, `terminate`]. We
can get the first unwind destination by just traversing the list from
the front.

---

This required another change in WinEHPrepare. WinEHPrepare demotes all
PHIs in EH pads because they are funclets in Windows and funclets can't
have PHIs. When used in Wasm they are not funclets so we don't need to
do that wholesale but we still need to demote PHIs in `catchswitch` BBs
because they are deleted during ISel. (So we created
[`-demote-catchswitch-only`](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/a5588b6d20590a10db0f1a2046fba4d9f205ed68/llvm/lib/CodeGen/WinEHPrepare.cpp#L57-L59)
option for that)

But turns out we need to remove PHIs that have a `catchswitch` BB as an
incoming block too:
```ll
...
catch.dispatch:
  %0 = catchswitch within none [label %catch.start] unwind label %terminate

catch.start:
  ...

somebb:
  ...

ehcleanup                                      ; preds = %catch.dispatch, %somebb
  %1 = phi i32 [ 10, %catch.dispatch ], [ 20, %somebb ]
  ...
```
In this case the `phi` in `ehcleanup` BB should be demoted too because
`catch.dispatch` BB will be removed in ISel so one if its incoming block
will be gone. This pattern didn't manifest before presumably due to how
`findWasmUnwindDestinations` worked. (In this example, in our
`findWasmUnwindDestinations`, `catch.dispatch` would have had only one
successor, `catch.start`. But now `catch.dispatch` has both
`catch.start` and `ehcleanup` as successors, revealing this bug. This
case is
[represented](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/ab87206c4b95aa0b5047facffb5f78f7fe6ac269/llvm/test/CodeGen/WebAssembly/exception.ll#L445)
by `rethrow_terminator` function in `exception.ll` (or
`exception-legacy.ll`) and without the WinEHPrepare fix it will crash.

<title>[IR] Store Triple in Module (NFC) (#129868)</title>

<id>979c275097a642e9b96c6b0a12f013c831af3a6e</id>
<content type='text'>
The module currently stores the target triple as a string. This means
that any code that wants to actually use the triple first has to
instantiate a Triple, which is somewhat expensive. The change in #121652
caused a moderate compile-time regression due to this. While it would be
easy enough to work around, I think that architecturally, it makes more
sense to store the parsed Triple in the module, so that it can always be
directly queried.

For this change, I've opted not to add any magic conversions between
std::string and Triple for backwards-compatibilty purses, and instead
write out needed Triple()s or str()s explicitly. This is because I think
a decent number of them should be changed to work on Triple as well, to
avoid unnecessary conversions back and forth.

The only interesting part in this patch is that the default triple is
Triple("") instead of Triple() to preserve existing behavior. The former
defaults to using the ELF object format instead of unknown object
format. We should fix that as well.</content>

<title>[NFC][DebugInfo] Use iterator-flavour getFirstNonPHI at many call-sites (#123737)</title>

<id>6292a808b3524d9ba6f4ce55bc5b9e547b088dd8</id>
<content type='text'>
As part of the "RemoveDIs" project, BasicBlock::iterator now carries a
debug-info bit that's needed when getFirstNonPHI and similar feed into
instruction insertion positions. Call-sites where that's necessary were
updated a year ago; but to ensure some type safety however, we'd like to
have all calls to getFirstNonPHI use the iterator-returning version.

This patch changes a bunch of call-sites calling getFirstNonPHI to use
getFirstNonPHIIt, which returns an iterator. All these call sites are
where it's obviously safe to fetch the iterator then dereference it. A
follow-up patch will contain less-obviously-safe changes.

We'll eventually deprecate and remove the instruction-pointer
getFirstNonPHI, but not before adding concise documentation of what
considerations are needed (very few).

These are the last remaining "trivial" changes to passes that use

In one or two locations, I'm also switching uses of getNextNode etc to
using std::next with iterators. This too should be NFC.
