Comment at: llvm/include/llvm/IR/Attributes.h:79
+  bool operator<(AttributeKey const &other) const {
+    return strcmp(value_, other.value_) < 0;
+  }

I tend to agree, but that would change how attributes are pretty-printed, so I'd rather keep that for another review.


================
Comment at: llvm/lib/IR/AttributeImpl.h:214
 
-  DenseMap<StringRef, Attribute> StringAttrs;
+  std::unordered_map<AttributeKey, Attribute> StringAttrs;
 
----------------

Because in the specific case of `AttrBuilder`, `std::unordered_map` is actually more efficient. `AttrBuilder` usually only handles a few elements, I even tried an implementation based on a sorted array and it was better than other alternatives in my benchmarks. But that's for another PR.


================
Comment at: llvm/lib/IR/Attributes.cpp:125
   FoldingSetNodeID ID;
-  ID.AddString(Kind);
+  ID.AddString(Kind.value());
   if (!Val.empty()) ID.AddString(Val);
----------------

`Kind` is actually also used as a parameter of `StringAttributeImpl` which has been updated to store an AttributeKey, so that would just move the AttributeKey creation from the caller to the internal implementation.
And I'd rather have an homogeneous API alongside all string Attribute creation.


================
Comment at: llvm/lib/IR/Attributes.cpp:862
+  auto Where = StringAttrs.find(Kind);
+  return Where != StringAttrs.end() ? Where->second : Attribute();
 }
----------------

Not for `std::unordered_map` :-/


================
Comment at: llvm/lib/IR/Attributes.cpp:2054
+  auto &AttributeKeys = pImpl->AttributeKeys;
+  auto Where = AttributeKeys.find(s);
+  if (Where == AttributeKeys.end()) {
----------------

I was looking for something along these lines, thanks!


================
Comment at: llvm/lib/Transforms/Scalar/RewriteStatepointsForGC.cpp:1531
 static StringRef getDeoptLowering(CallBase *Call) {
-  const char *DeoptLowering = "deopt-lowering";
+  const char DeoptLowering[] = "deopt-lowering";
   if (Call->hasFnAttr(DeoptLowering)) {

Actually it cannot, because the `AttributeKey` constructor accepts a `char const (&) [N]` in order to get a compile-time size, and `const char*` doesn match this signature.
