MachineLICM uses a callback named hasLowDefLatency to determine if an
instruction def operand has a 'low' latency. If all relevant operands have a
'low' latency, the instruction is considered too cheap to hoist out of loops
even in low-register-pressure situations. On PowerPC cores, both the embedded
cores and the others, there is no reason to believe that this is a good choice:
all instructions have a cost inside a loop, and hoisting them when not limited
by register pressure is a reasonable default.

The assert was being triggered when the distance between a constant pool entry
and its user exceeded the maximally allowed distance after thumb2 branch
shortening. A padding was inserted after a thumb2 branch instruction was shrunk,
which caused the user to be out of range. This is wrong as the padding should
have been inserted by the layout algorithm so that the distance between two
instructions doesn't grow later during thumb2 instruction optimization.
This commit fixes the code in ARMConstantIslands::createNewWater to call
computeBlockSize and set BasicBlock::Unalign when a branch instruction is
inserted to create new water after a basic block. A non-zero Unalign causes
the worst-case padding to be inserted when adjustBBOffsetsAfter is called to
recompute the basic block offsets.

This partially fixes PR13007 (ARM CodeGen fails with large stack
alignment): for ARM and Thumb2 targets, but not for Thumb1, as it
seems stack alignment for Thumb1 targets hasn't been supported at
all.
Producing an aligned stack pointer is done by zero-ing out the lower
bits of the stack pointer. The BIC instruction was used for this.
However, the immediate field of the BIC instruction only allows to
encode an immediate that can zero out up to a maximum of the 8 lower
bits. When a larger alignment is requested, a BIC instruction cannot
be used; llvm was silently producing incorrect code in this case.
This commit fixes code generation for large stack aligments by
using the BFC instruction instead, when the BFC instruction is
available. When not, it uses 2 instructions: a right shift,
followed by a left shift to zero out the lower bits.
The lowering of ARM::Int_eh_sjlj_dispatchsetup still has code
that unconditionally uses BIC to realign the stack pointer, so it
very likely has the same problem. However, I wasn't able to
produce a test case for that. This commit adds an assert so that
the compiler will fail the assert instead of silently generating
wrong code if this is ever reached.

The call lowering assumes that if the callee is a global, we want to emit a direct call.
This is correct for regular globals, but not for TLS ones.

A broken hint is a copy where both ends are assigned different colors. When a
variable gets evicted in the neighborhood of such copies, it is likely we can
reconcile some of them.
** Context **
Copies are inserted during the register allocation via splitting. These split
points are required to relax the constraints on the allocation problem. When
such a point is inserted, both ends of the copy would not share the same color
with respect to the current allocation problem. When variables get evicted,
the allocation problem becomes different and some split point may not be
required anymore. However, the related variables may already have been colored.
This usually shows up in the assembly with pattern like this:
def A
...
save A to B
def A
use A
restore A from B
...
use B
Whereas we could simply have done:
def B
...
def A
use A
...
use B
** Proposed Solution **
A variable having a broken hint is marked for late recoloring if and only if
selecting a register for it evict another variable. Indeed, if no eviction
happens this is pointless to look for recoloring opportunities as it means the
situation was the same as the initial allocation problem where we had to break
the hint.
Finally, when everything has been allocated, we look for recoloring
opportunities for all the identified candidates.
The recoloring is performed very late to rely on accurate copy cost (all
involved variables are allocated).
The recoloring is simple unlike the last change recoloring. It propagates the
color of the broken hint to all its copy-related variables. If the color is
available for them, the recoloring uses it, otherwise it gives up on that hint
even if a more complex coloring would have worked.
The recoloring happens only if it is profitable. The profitability is evaluated
using the expected frequency of the copies of the currently recolored variable
with a) its current color and b) with the target color. If a) is greater or
equal than b), then it is profitable and the recoloring happen.
** Example **
Consider the following example:
BB1:
a =
b =
BB2:
...
= b
= a
Let us assume b gets split:
BB1:
a =
b =
BB2:
c = b
...
d = c
= d
= a
Because of how the allocation work, b, c, and d may be assigned different
colors. Now, if a gets evicted to make room for c, assuming b and d were
assigned to something different than a.
We end up with:
BB1:
a =
st a, SpillSlot
b =
BB2:
c = b
...
d = c
= d
e = ld SpillSlot
= e
This is likely that we can assign the same register for b, c, and d,
getting rid of 2 copies.
** Performances **
Both ARM64 and x86_64 show performance improvements of up to 3% for the
llvm-testsuite + externals with Os and O3. There are a few regressions too that
comes from the (in)accuracy of the block frequency estimate.

subregister index in SrcReg/DstReg, but they are actually subregister
indices of the coalesced register that get you back to SrcReg/DstReg
when applied.

"This patch started out as an exploration of gc.relocate, and an attempt
to write a simple test in call-lowering. I then noticed that the
arguments of gc.relocate were not checked fully, so I went in and fixed
a few things. Finally, the most important outcome of this patch is that
my new error handling code caught a bug in a callsite in
stackmap-format."

This change includes the most basic possible GCStrategy for a GC which is using the statepoint lowering code. At the moment, this GCStrategy doesn't really do much - aside from actually generate correct stackmaps that is - but I went ahead and added a few extra correctness checks as proof of concept. It's mostly here to provide documentation on how to do one, and to provide a point for various optimization legality hooks I'd like to add going forward. (For context, see the TODOs in InstCombine around gc.relocate.)
Most of the validation logic added here as proof of concept will soon move in to the Verifier. That move is dependent on http://reviews.llvm.org/D6811
There was discussion in the review thread about addrspace(1) being reserved for something. I'm going to follow up on a seperate llvmdev thread. If needed, I'll update all the code at once.
Note that I am deliberately not making a GCStrategy required to use gc.statepoints with this change. I want to give folks out of tree - including myself - a chance to migrate. In a week or two, I'll make having a GCStrategy be required for gc.statepoints. To this end, I added the gc tag to one of the test cases but not others.

LLVM emits stack probes on Windows targets to ensure that the stack is
correctly accessed. However, the amount of stack allocated before
emitting such a probe is hardcoded to 4096.
It is desirable to have this be configurable so that a function might
opt-out of stack probes. Our level of granularity is at the function
level instead of, say, the module level to permit proper generation of
code after LTO.

after inlining a function with a specific stack-probe-size into another

passes too many time.
I think this is actually the issue that someone raised with me at the
developer's meeting and in an email, but that we never really got to the
bottom of. Having all the testing utilities made it much easier to dig
down and uncover the core issue.
When a pass manager is running many passes over a single function, we
need it to invalidate the analyses between each run so that they can be
re-computed as needed. We also need to track the intersection of
preserved higher-level analyses across all the passes that we run (for
example, if there is one module analysis which all the function analyses
preserve, we want to track that and propagate it). Unfortunately, this
interacted poorly with any enclosing pass adaptor between two IR units.
It would see the intersection of preserved analyses, and need to
invalidate any other analyses, but some of the un-preserved analyses
might have already been invalidated *and recomputed*! We would fail to
propagate the fact that the analysis had already been invalidated.
The solution to this struck me as really strange at first, but the more
I thought about it, the more natural it seemed. After a nice discussion
with Duncan about it on IRC, it seemed even nicer. The idea is that
invalidating an analysis *causes* it to be preserved! Preserving the
lack of result is trivial. If it is recomputed, great. Until something
*else* invalidates it again, we're good.
The consequence of this is that the invalidate methods on the analysis
manager which operate over many passes now consume their
PreservedAnalyses object, update it to "preserve" every analysis pass to
which it delivers an invalidation (regardless of whether the pass
chooses to be removed, or handles the invalidation itself by updating
itself). Then we return this augmented set from the invalidate routine,
letting the pass manager take the result and use the intersection of
*that* across each pass run to compute the final preserved set. This
accounts for all the places where the early invalidation of an analysis
has already "preserved" it for a future run.
I've beefed up the testing and adjusted the assertions to show that we
no longer repeatedly invalidate or compute the analyses across nested
pass managers.

In order to make comdats always explicit in the IR, we decided to make
the syntax a bit more compact for the case of a GlobalObject in a
comdat with the same name.
Just dropping the $name causes problems for
@foo = globabl i32 0, comdat
$bar = comdat ...
and
declare void @foo() comdat
$bar = comdat ...
So the syntax is changed to
@g1 = globabl i32 0, comdat($c1)
@g2 = globabl i32 0, comdat
and
declare void @foo() comdat($c1)
declare void @foo() comdat

int->fp conversions on PPC must be done through memory loads and stores. On a
modern core, this process begins by storing the int value to memory, then
loading it using a (sometimes special) FP load instruction. Unfortunately, we
would do this even when the value to be converted was itself a load, and we can
just use that same memory location instead of copying it to another first.
There is a slight complication when handling int_to_fp(fp_to_int(x)) pairs,
because the fp_to_int operand has not been lowered when the int_to_fp is being
lowered. We handle this specially by invoking fp_to_int's lowering logic
(partially) and getting the necessary memory location (some trivial refactoring
was done to make this possible).
This is all somewhat ugly, and it would be nice if some later CodeGen stage
could just clean this stuff up, but because doing so would involve modifying
target-specific nodes (or instructions), it is not immediately clear how that
would work.
Also, remove a related entry from the README.txt for which we now generate
reasonable code.
