SSE transition penalty. The pass is enabled through the "x86-use-vzeroupper"
llc command line option. This is only the first step (very naive and
conservative one) to sketch out the idea, but proper DFA is coming next
to allow smarter decisions. Comments and ideas now and in further commits
will be very appreciated.

- Introduce JITDefault code model. This tells targets to set different default
code model for JIT. This eliminates the ugly hack in TargetMachine where
code model is changed after construction.

(including compilation, assembly). Move relocation model Reloc::Model from
TargetMachine to MCCodeGenInfo so it's accessible even without TargetMachine.

and MCSubtargetInfo.
- Added methods to update subtarget features (used when targets automatically
detect subtarget features or switch modes).
- Teach X86Subtarget to update MCSubtargetInfo features bits since the
MCSubtargetInfo layer can be shared with other modules.
- These fixes .code 16 / .code 32 support since mode switch is updated in
MCSubtargetInfo so MC code emitter can do the right thing.

- Each target asm parser now creates its own MCSubtatgetInfo (if needed).
- Changed AssemblerPredicate to take subtarget features which tablegen uses
to generate asm matcher subtarget feature queries. e.g.
"ModeThumb,FeatureThumb2" is translated to
"(Bits & ModeThumb) != 0 && (Bits & FeatureThumb2) != 0".

be the first encoded as the first feature. It then uses the CPU name to look up
features / scheduling itineray even though clients know full well the CPU name
being used to query these properties.
The fix is to just have the clients explictly pass the CPU name!

No one uses *-mingw64. mingw-w64 is represented as {i686|x86_64}-w64-mingw32. In llvm side, i686 and x64 can be treated as similar way.

- The COFF backend doesn't support MingW/Cygwin at the moment, it'll report an
error, but it's still much better than random assertions from the MachO backend.
- We want to make ELF the default eventually, it's what the majority of targets use.

FP_REG_KILL instructions are still inserted, but can be disabled by passing
-live-x87 to llc. The X87FPRegKillInserterPass is going to be removed shortly.
CFG edges are partioned into bundles where the x87 stack must be allocated
identically. Code is insertad at the end of each basic block that shuffles the
live FP registers to match the outgoing bundles expectations.
This fix is in preparation for some upcoming register allocator improvements
that may extend the live range of registers beyond a basic block, similar to
LICM. It also provides a nice runtime speedup if you are building with
-mfpmath=387.

- Check getBytesToPopOnReturn().
- Eschew ST0 and ST1 for return values.
- Fix the PIC base register initialization so that it doesn't ever
fail to end up the top of the entry block.

isn't ideal if we want to be able to use another object file format.
Add a createObjectStreamer() factory method so that the correct object
file streamer can be instantiated for a given target triple.

Move EmitTargetCodeForMemcpy, EmitTargetCodeForMemset, and
EmitTargetCodeForMemmove out of TargetLowering and into
SelectionDAGInfo to exercise this.

When a frame pointer is not otherwise required, and dynamic stack alignment
is necessary solely due to the spilling of a register with larger alignment
requirements than the default stack alignment, the frame pointer can be both
used as a general purpose register and a frame pointer. That goes poorly, for
obvious reasons. This patch brings back a bit of old logic for identifying
the use of such registers and conservatively reserves the frame pointer
during register allocation in such cases.
For now, implement for X86 only since it's 32-bit linux which is hitting this,
and we want a targeted fix for 2.7. As a follow-on, this will be expanded
to handle other targets, as theoretically the problem could arise elsewhere
as well.

On Nehalem and newer CPUs there is a 2 cycle latency penalty on using a register
in a different domain than where it was defined. Some instructions have
equvivalents for different domains, like por/orps/orpd.
The SSEDomainFix pass tries to minimize the number of domain crossings by
changing between equvivalent opcodes where possible.
This is a work in progress, in particular the pass doesn't do anything yet. SSE
instructions are tagged with their execution domain in TableGen using the last
two bits of TSFlags. Note that not all instructions are tagged correctly. Life
just isn't that simple.
The SSE execution domain issue is very similar to the ARM NEON/VFP pipeline
issue handled by NEONMoveFixPass. This pass may become target independent to
handle both.
llvm-svn: 99524
This is work in progress. So far, SSE execution domain tables are added to
X86InstrInfo, and a skeleton pass is enabled with -sse-domain-fix.
