 // OPT-NOT: @llvm.type.test
-// OPT-NOT: call void @llvm.assume
 // We should have only one @llvm.assume call, the one that was expanded

Sure, but it should still be gone and can confirm that here? If it isn't useful to check for, then the comment should probably be changed too since it mentions assumes.


================
Comment at: clang/test/CodeGenCXX/thinlto_public_type_test_distributed.ll:23
+; RUN:   -o %t.native.o -x ir %t.o --save-temps=obj
+; RUN: llvm-dis %t.native.o.1.promote.bc -o - | FileCheck %s --check-prefix=HIDDEN
+
----------------
Is there a reason why the hidden version checks after promote but the public version above checks after importing?


================
Comment at: clang/test/CodeGenCXX/type-metadata.cpp:212
   // CFI-NVT-NOT: call i1 @llvm.type.test
-  // CFI-VT: [[P:%[^ ]*]] = call i1 @llvm.type.test
+  // CFI-VT-ITANIUM: [[P:%[^ ]*]] = call i1 @llvm.type.test
+  // CFI-VT-MS: [[P:%[^ ]*]] = call i1 @llvm.type.test
----------------
Is the CFI-VT-ITANIUM and CFI-VT-MS split needed? I don't see any differences in their checking. Can we go back to just a single CFI-VT here?

Yeah sure that's fine. But maybe also add a direct check there in both cases after promote that the public.type.test/assume were transformed as expected as you do in this test.

Comment at: llvm/lib/Analysis/ModuleSummaryAnalysis.cpp:169
+  case Intrinsic::public_type_test: {
+    // errs() << "HIHI " << CI->getParent()->getParent()->getName() <<"\n";
+    // CI->dump();

Remove commented debugging code here and below


================
Comment at: llvm/lib/LTO/LTO.cpp:1106
                                 DynamicExportSymbols);
+  updatePublicTypeTestCalls(*RegularLTO.CombinedModule,
+                            Conf.HasWholeProgramVisibility);
----------------
Probably need to do for the legacy LTO API as well, which also calls  updateVCallVisibilityInModule (LTOCodeGenerator.cpp). This is used both some other linkers such as ld64. Otherwise I think the public.type.test intrinsics will never get converted for those LTO users, leading to errors probably? You can test the legacy LTO via llvm-lto (e.g. see tests in llvm/test/LTO/X86).


================
Comment at: llvm/lib/LTO/LTOBackend.cpp:565
+  updatePublicTypeTestCalls(Mod,
+                            Conf.HasWholeProgramVisibility ||
+                                CombinedIndex.withWholeProgramVisibility());
----------------
Can we just check the combined index flag now?


================
Comment at: llvm/lib/LTO/LTOBackend.cpp:595
 
+  updatePublicTypeTestCalls(Mod, Conf.HasWholeProgramVisibility);
+

I think something may need to be recorded in the index as a flag there at thin link / indexing time that can be checked here.

So in here is ok but I would do it early to handle some of the early return cases.

I see from your most recent update that you added code to set/check this new index flag. But I think you would want to set it around the same place where we update the vcall visibility during the thin link (see calls to updateVCallVisibilityInIndex). And I would do it via a new method in the WPD source file that uses the existing hasWholeProgramVisibility() that checks the OR of the config flag or the internal option. Then you don't need to add a new flag to llvm-lto2 for this purpose.

Also, as I noted for the regular LTO handling elsewhere, I think you need to add similar handling for the legacy LTO implementation. See other callers to updateVCallVisibilityInIndex.

Related to some of my other comments about ensuring we do the conversion for the legacy LTO interfaces, perhaps this we should assert here if there are any remaining public.type.test intrinsics? Not sure what the failure mode is if any of those stick around otherwise.
