We were creating a `TranslatedFunction` even for functions that were not from source code, but then telling the IR package that those functions didn't have IR. This resulted in having prologue/epilogue instructions (e.g. `EnterFunction`, `ExitFunction`) with no enclosing `IRFunction`.
Some of our IR consistency failure query predicates already produced results in the schema as an `@kind problem` query, including `$@` replacements for the enclosing `IRFunction` to make it easier to figure out which function to dump when debugging. This change moves the rest of the query predicates in `IRConsistency.qll` to do the same. In addition, it wraps each call to `getEnclosingIRFunction()` to return an `OptionalIRFunction`, which can be either a real `IRFunction` or a placeholder in case `getEnclosingIRFunction()` returned no results. This exposes a couple new consistency failures in `syntax-zoo`, which will be fixed in a subsequent commit.
This change also deals with consistency failures when the enclosing `IRFunction` has more than one `Function` or `Location`. For multiple `Function`s, we concatenate the function names. For multiple `Location`s, we pick the first one in lexicographical order. This changes the number of results produced in the existing tests, but does't change the actual number of problems.
Generalize logic by recognizing not only calls to
`Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.ViewFeatures.HtmlHelper.Raw()`, but calls to all `Raw()`
methods that implement `Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Rendering.IHtmlHelper.Raw()`.
The four cached predicates used to access common properties of instructions took a `TStageInstruction` as a parameter. This requires the calling code, in `Instruction.qll`, to then join the results with `hasInstruction()` to filter out results for `TRawInstruction`s that were discarded as unreachable. By simply switching the parameter types to `Instruction`, we can force that join to happen in the cached predicate itself. This makes the various accessor predicates on `Instruction` trivially inlinable to the cached predicate, instead of being joins of two huge relations that might have to be recomputed in later stages.
Most of the predicates on `Instruction` are thin wrappers around cached predicates in the `IRConstruction` or `SSAConstruction` modules. However, `getResultIRType()` has to join `Construction::getInstructionResultType()` with `LanguageType::getIRType()`. `getResultIRType()` is called frequently both within the IR code and by IR consumers, and that's a big join to have to repeat in multiple stages.
I looked at most of the other predicates in `Instruction.qll`, and didn't see any other predicates that met all of the criteria of "large, commonly called, and not already inline".
There were a few places in the IR itself where we use `Instruction.getResultType()`, which returns the C++ `Type` of the result, instead of `Instruction.getResultIRType()`, which returns the language-neutral `IRType` of the result. By removing this usage, we can avoid evaluating `getResultType()` at all.
There are still other uses of `Instruction.getResultType()` in other libraries. We should switch those as well.
