Each Calling convention (CC) defines a static list of registers that should be preserved by a callee function. All other registers should be saved by the caller.
Some CCs use additional condition: If the register is used for passing/returning arguments – the caller needs to save it - even if it is part of the Callee Saved Registers (CSR) list.
The current LLVM implementation doesn’t support it. It will save a register if it is part of the static CSR list and will not care if the register is passed/returned by the callee.
The solution is to dynamically allocate the CSR lists (Only for these CCs). The lists will be updated with actual registers that should be saved by the callee.
Since we need the allocated lists to live as long as the function exists, the list should reside inside the Machine Register Info (MRI) which is a property of the Machine Function and managed by it (and has the same life span).
The lists should be saved in the MRI and populated upon LowerCall and LowerFormalArguments.
The patch will also assist to implement future no_caller_saved_regsiters attribute intended for interrupt handler CC.

The good reason to do this is that static allocas are pretty simple to handle
(especially at -O0) and avoiding tracking DBG_VALUEs throughout the pipeline
should give some kind of performance benefit.
The bad reason is that the debug pipeline is an unholy mess of implicit
contracts, where determining whether "DBG_VALUE %reg, imm" actually implies a
load or not involves the services of at least 3 soothsayers and the sacrifice
of at least one chicken. And it still gets it wrong if the variable is at SP
directly.

We had various variants of defining dump() functions in LLVM. Normalize
them (this should just consistently implement the things discussed in
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/cfe-dev/2014-January/034323.html
For reference:
- Public headers should just declare the dump() method but not use
LLVM_DUMP_METHOD or #if !defined(NDEBUG) || defined(LLVM_ENABLE_DUMP)
- The definition of a dump method should look like this:
#if !defined(NDEBUG) || defined(LLVM_ENABLE_DUMP)
LLVM_DUMP_METHOD void MyClass::dump() {
// print stuff to dbgs()...
}

Recommitting r288293 with some extra fixes for GlobalISel code.
Most of the exception handling members in MachineModuleInfo is actually
per function data (talks about the "current function") so it is better
to keep it at the function instead of the module.
This is a necessary step to have machine module passes work properly.
Also:
- Rename TidyLandingPads() to tidyLandingPads()
- Use doxygen member groups instead of "//===- EH ---"... so it is clear
where a group ends.
- I had to add an ugly const_cast at two places in the AsmPrinter
because the available MachineFunction pointers are const, but the code
wants to call tidyLandingPads() in between
(markFunctionEnd()/endFunction()).

If a constant is unamed_addr and is only used within one function, we can save
on the code size and runtime cost of an indirection by changing the global's storage
to inside the constant pool. For example, instead of:
ldr r0, .CPI0
bl printf
bx lr
.CPI0: &format_string
format_string: .asciz "hello, world!\n"
We can emit:
adr r0, .CPI0
bl printf
bx lr
.CPI0: .asciz "hello, world!\n"
This can cause significant code size savings when many small strings are used in one
function (4 bytes per string).
This recommit contains fixes for a nasty bug related to fast-isel fallback - because
fast-isel doesn't know about this optimization, if it runs and emits references to
a string that we inline (because fast-isel fell back to SDAG) we will end up
with an inlined string and also an out-of-line string, and we won't emit the
out-of-line string, causing backend failures.
It also contains fixes for emitting .text relocations which made the sanitizer
bots unhappy.

Many lists want to override only allocation semantics, or callbacks for
iplist. Split these up to prevent code duplication.
- Specialize ilist_alloc_traits to change the implementations of
deleteNode() and createNode().
- One common desire is to do nothing deleteNode() and disable
createNode(). Specialize ilist_alloc_traits to inherit from
ilist_noalloc_traits for that behaviour.
- Specialize ilist_callback_traits to use the addNodeToList(),
removeNodeFromList(), and transferNodesFromList() callbacks.
As a drive-by, add some coverage to the callback-related unit tests.

This is used to communicate that the instruction selection pipeline
failed at some point.
Another way to achieve that would be to have some kind of conditional
scheduling in the PassManager, such that we only schedule a pass based
on the success/failure of another one. The property approach has the
advantage of being lightweight and solve the problem at stake.

This method allows to reset the state of a MachineFunction as if it was
just created. This will be used during the bring-up of GlobalISel to
provide a way to fallback on SelectionDAG. That way, we can start doing
correctness testing even if we are not able to select all functions via
the global instruction selector.

Rename AllVRegsAllocated to NoVRegs. This avoids the connotation of
running after register and simply describes that no vregs are used in
a machine function. With that we can simply compute the property and do
not need to dump/parse it in .mir files.

I want to compute the SSA property of .mir files automatically in
upcoming patches. The problem with this is that some inputs will be
reported as static single assignment with some passes claiming not to
support SSA form. In reality though those passes do not support PHI
instructions => Track the presence of PHI instructions separate from the
SSA property.

Selected: the InstructionSelect pass ran and all pre-isel generic
instructions have been eliminated; i.e., all instructions are now
target-specific or non-pre-isel generic instructions (e.g., COPY).
Since only pre-isel generic instructions can have generic virtual register
operands, this also means that all generic virtual registers have been
constrained to virtual registers (assigned to register classes) and that
all sizes attached to them have been eliminated.
This lets us enforce certain invariants across passes.
This property is GlobalISel-specific, but is always available.

RegBankSelected: the RegBankSelect pass ran and all generic virtual
registers have been assigned to a register bank.

Legalized: The MachineLegalizer ran; all pre-isel generic instructions

This lets us enforce certain invariants across passes.

SelectionDAG and friends).
- Split the flags and alignment into separate variables.
- Specialize FlagsEnumTraits for it, so we can do bitwise ops on it
without losing type information.
- Make some enum values constants in MachineMemOperand instead.
MOMaxBits should not be a valid Flag.
- Simplify some of the bitwise ops for dealing with Flags.

MachineFrameInfo does not need to be able to distinguish between the
user asking us not to realign the stack and the target telling us it
doesn't support stack realignment. Either way, fixed stack objects have
their alignment clamped.

Summary:
After we make the adjustment, we can assume that for local allocas, but
not for stack parameters, the return address, or any other fixed stack
object (which has a negative offset and therefore lies prior to the
adjusted SP).

Summary:
Now that there is a one-to-one mapping from MachineFunction to
WinEHFuncInfo, we don't need to use a DenseMap to select the right
WinEHFuncInfo for the current funclet.
The main challenge here is that X86WinEHStatePass is an IR pass that
doesn't have access to the MachineFunction. I gave it its own
WinEHFuncInfo object that it uses to calculate state numbers, which it
then throws away. As long as nobody creates or removes EH pads between
this pass and SDAG construction, we will get the same state numbers.
The other thing X86WinEHStatePass does is to mark the EH registration
node. Instead of communicating which alloca was the registration through
WinEHFuncInfo, I added the llvm.x86.seh.ehregnode intrinsic. This
intrinsic generates no code and simply marks the alloca in use.

The way prelink used to work was
* The compiler decides if a given section only has relocations that
are know to point to the same DSO. If so, it names it
.data.rel.ro.local<something>.
* The static linker puts all of these together.
* The prelinker program assigns addresses to each library and resolves
the local relocations.
There are many problems with this:
* It is incompatible with address space randomization.
* The information passed by the compiler is redundant. The linker
knows if a given relocation is in the same DSO or not. If could sort
by that if so desired.
* There are newer ways of speeding up DSO (gnu hash for example).
* Even if we want to implement this again in the compiler, the previous
implementation is pretty broken. It talks about relocations that are
"resolved by the static linker". If they are resolved, there are none
left for the prelinker. What one needs to track is if an expression
will require only dynamic relocations that point to the same DSO.
At this point it looks like the prelinker is an historical curiosity.
For example, fedora has retired it because it failed to build for two
releases

This commit removes the global manager variable which is responsible for
storing and allocating pseudo source values and instead it introduces a new
manager class named 'PseudoSourceValueManager'. Machine functions now own an
instance of the pseudo source value manager class.
This commit also modifies the 'get...' methods in the 'MachinePointerInfo'
class to construct pseudo source values using the instance of the pseudo
source value manager object from the machine function.
This commit updates calls to the 'get...' methods from the 'MachinePointerInfo'
class in a lot of different files because those calls now need to pass in a
reference to a machine function to those methods.
This change will make it easier to serialize pseudo source values as it will
enable me to transform the mips specific MipsCallEntry PseudoSourceValue
subclass into two target independent subclasses.

Create wrapper methods in the Function class for the OptimizeForSize and MinSize
attributes. We want to hide the logic of "or'ing" them together when optimizing
just for size (-Os).
Currently, we are not consistent about this and rely on a front-end to always set
OptimizeForSize (-Os) if MinSize (-Oz) is on. Thus, there are 18 FIXME changes here
that should be added as follow-on patches with regression tests.
This patch is NFC-intended: it just replaces existing direct accesses of the attributes
by the equivalent wrapper call.
