The binutils assembler supports a mode called DOLLAR_DOT which treats
the dollar sign token as a reference to the current program counter if
the dollar sign doesn't precede a constant or identifier.
This commit adds a new MCAsmInfo flag stating whether or not a given
target supports this interpretation of the dollar sign token; by
default, this flag is not enabled.
Further, enable this flag for PPC. The system assembler for AIX and
binutils both support using the dollar sign in this manner.
This fixes PR17353.

Similar to r191364, but for calls. This patch also removes the shortening
of BRASL to BRAS within a TU. Doing that was a bit controversial internally,
since there's a strong expectation with the z assembler that WYWIWYG.

Another patch to reduce the duplication of encoding information.
Rather than define separate patterns for truncating 64-bit stores,
use the 32-bit stores with a subreg. No behavioral changed intended.
llvm-svn: 191365
This is the first of a few patches to reduce the dupliation of encoding
information. The return instruction is a normal BR in which one of the
registers is fixed.

When loading immediates into a GR32, the port prefered LHI, followed by
LLILH or LLILL, followed by IILF. LHI and IILF are natural 32-bit
operations, but LLILH and LLILL also clear the upper 32 bits of the register.
This was represented as taking a 32-bit subreg of a 64-bit assignment.
Using subregs for something as simple as a move immediate was probably
a bad idea. Also, I have patches to add support for the high-word facility,
and we don't want something like LLILH and LLILL to stop the high word of
the same GPR from being used.
This patch therefore uses LHI and IILF to begin with and adds a late
machine-specific pass to use LLILH and LLILL if the other half of the
register is not live. The high-word patches extend this behavior to
IIHF, LLIHL and LLIHH.
No behavioral change intended.

PEI inserts a save/restore sequence for the link register, according to the
information it gets from the MachineRegisterInfo.
MachineRegisterInfo is populated by the VirtRegMap pass.
This pass was not aware of noreturn calls and was registering the definitions of
these calls the same way as regular operations.
Modify VirtRegPass so that it does not set the isPhysRegUsed information for
registers only defined by noreturn calls.
The rational is that a noreturn call is the "last instruction" of the program
(if it returns the behavior is undefined), so everything that is defined by it
cannot be used and will not interfere with anything else. Therefore, it is
pointless to account for then.

This is being disabled because it is no longer needed for
performance. It is only used by postRAscheduler which is also planned
for removal, and it is implemented with an out-dated view of register
liveness. It consideres aliases instead of register units, assumes
valid kill flags, and assumes implicit uses on partial register
defs. Kill flags and implicit operands are error prone and impossible
to verify. We should gradually eliminate dependence on them in the
postRA phases.
Targets that still benefit from this should move to the MI
scheduler. If that doesn't solve the problem, then we should add a
hook to regalloc to optimize reload placement.
llvm-svn: 191348
It is temporary patch. We need to keep it in trunk, since it makes easer to test it on buildbots on different platforms.
Once we see stable MergeFunctions behaviour with satisfied perfomance, this patch will be removed.

Some supplemental information for r191314: We would like to make sure SLP Vectorizer will not try to vectorize tiny trees even with a negative threshold so we set the cost to INT_MAX.

This code isn't ready to deal with allocation functions where the return is not
the allocated pointer. The checks below will reject posix_memalign anyways.

This is safe per C++11 18.6.1.1p3: [operator new returns] a non-null pointer to
suitably aligned storage (3.7.4), or else throw a bad_alloc exception. This
requirement is binding on a replacement version of this function.
Brings us a tiny bit closer to eliminating more vector push_backs.

Most constant BUILD_VECTOR's are matched using ComplexPatterns which cover
bitcasted as well as normal vectors. However, it doesn't seem to be possible to
match ldi.[bhwd] in a type-agnostic manner (e.g. to support the widest range of
immediates, it should be possible to use ldi.b to load v2i64) using TableGen so
ldi.[bhwd] is matched using custom code in MipsSEISelDAGToDAG.cpp
This made the majority of the constant splat BUILD_VECTOR lowering redundant.
The only transformation remaining for constant splats is when an (up-to) 32-bit
constant splat is possible but the value does not fit into a 10-bit signed
integer. In this case, the BUILD_VECTOR is transformed into a bitcasted
BUILD_VECTOR so that fill.[bhw] can be used to splat the vector from a GPR32
register (which is initialized using the usual lui/addui sequence).
There are no additional tests since this is a re-implementation of previous
functionality. The change is intended to make it easier to implement some of
the upcoming instruction selection patches since they can rely on existing
support for BUILD_VECTOR's in the DAGCombiner.
compare_float.ll changed slightly because a BITCAST is no longer
introduced during legalization.
