Tim Northover 82a0e808bb IR/AArch64/X86: add "swifttailcc" calling convention.
Swift's new concurrency features are going to require guaranteed tail calls so
that they don't consume excessive amounts of stack space. This would normally
mean "tailcc", but there are also Swift-specific ABI desires that don't
naturally go along with "tailcc" so this adds another calling convention that's
the combination of "swiftcc" and "tailcc".

Support is added for AArch64 and X86 for now.

Reid Kleckner f9b67b810e [X86] Add new calling convention that guarantees tail call optimization
When the target option GuaranteedTailCallOpt is specified, calls with
the fastcc calling convention will be transformed into tail calls if
they are in tail position. This diff adds a new calling convention,
tailcc, currently supported only on X86, which behaves the same way as
fastcc, except that the GuaranteedTailCallOpt flag does not need to
enabled in order to enable tail call optimization.

Matt Arsenault e56a2ad85e CodeGen: Allow virtual registers in bundles
The note in the documentation suggests this restriction is a compile
time optimization for architectures that make heavy use of
bundling. Allowing virtual registers in a bundle is useful for some
(non-R600) AMDGPU use cases and are infrequent enough to matter.

A more common AMDGPU use case has already been using virtual registers
in bundles since r333691, although never calling finalizeBundle on
them and manually creating the use/def list on the BUNDLE
instruction. This is also relatively infrequent, and only happens for
consecutive sequences of some load/store types.

Sanjay Patel 6a554188aa [InstCombine] fold shuffles of insert_subvectors
This should be a valid exception to the general rule of not creating new shuffle masks in IR...
because we already do it. :)
Also, DAG combining/legalization will undo this by widening the shuffle back out if needed.

Explanation for how we already do this: SLP or vector source can create chains of insert/extract
as shown in 1 of the examples from PR16739:
https://godbolt.org/z/NlK7rA
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16739

And we expect instcombine or DAGCombine to clean that up by creating relatively simple shuffles.

Francis Visoiu Mistrih 7fee2b89fd [Remarks] Add string deduplication using a string table
* Add support for uniquing strings in the remark streamer and emitting the string table in the remarks section.

* Add parsing support for the string table in the RemarkParser.

From this remark:

```
--- !Missed
Pass:     inline
Name:     NoDefinition
DebugLoc: { File: 'test-suite/SingleSource/UnitTests/2002-04-17-PrintfChar.c',
            Line: 7, Column: 3 }
Function: printArgsNoRet
Args:
  - Callee:   printf
  - String:   ' will not be inlined into '
  - Caller:   printArgsNoRet
    DebugLoc: { File: 'test-suite/SingleSource/UnitTests/2002-04-17-PrintfChar.c',
                Line: 6, Column: 0 }
  - String:   ' because its definition is unavailable'
...
```

to:

```
--- !Missed
Pass: 0
Name: 1
DebugLoc: { File: 3, Line: 7, Column: 3 }
Function: 2
Args:
  - Callee:   4
  - String:   5
  - Caller:   2
    DebugLoc: { File: 3, Line: 6, Column: 0 }
  - String:   6
...
```

And the string table in the .remarks/__remarks section containing:

```
inline\0NoDefinition\0printArgsNoRet\0
test-suite/SingleSource/UnitTests/2002-04-17-PrintfChar.c\0printf\0
will not be inlined into \0 because its definition is unavailable\0
```

This is mostly supposed to be used for testing purposes, but it gives us
a 2x reduction in the remark size, and is an incremental change for the
updates to the remarks file format.

Sean Eveson a6bcd53d52 [MC] Function stack size section.
Re applying after fixing issues in the diff, sorry for any painful conflicts/merges!

Original RFC: http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2017-August/117028.html

This change adds a '.stack-size' section containing metadata on function stack sizes to output ELF files behind the new -stack-size-section flag. The section contains pairs of function symbol references (8 byte) and stack sizes (unsigned LEB128).

The contents of this section can be used to measure changes to stack sizes between different versions of the compiler or a source base. The advantage of having a section is that we can extract this information when examining binaries that we didn't build, and it allows users and tools easy access to that information just by referencing the binary.

There is a follow up change to add an option to clang.

Thanks.

Konstantin Zhuravlyov ee68fdadfe [Support/ELF/AMDGPU] Add 32-bit lo/hi got and pc relative relocations
Added relocation names:
  - R_AMDGPU_GOTPCREL32_LO
  - R_AMDGPU_GOTPCREL32_HI
  - R_AMDGPU_REL32_LO
  - R_AMDGPU_REL32_HI

AMDGPU isa only supports 32-bit immediates. In order to access 64-bit address we need to generate 32-bit lo/hi relocations, and do the right math (separate patch). Currently we only generate one 32 bit relocation for lower bits for each access, losing higher bits. Hence we need relocations listed above.

Renato Golin 124f2593fc [docs] Fixing Sphinx warnings to unclog the buildbot
Lots of blocks had "llvm" or "nasm" syntax types but either weren't following
the syntax, or the syntax has changed (and sphinx hasn't keep up) or the type
doesn't even exist (nasm?).

Other documents had :options: what were invalid. I only removed those that had
warnings, and left the ones that didn't, in order to follow the principle of
least surprise.

This is like this for ages, but the buildbot is now failing on errors. It may
take a while to upgrade the buildbot's sphinx, if that's even possible, but
that shouldn't stop us from getting docs updates (which seem down for quite
a while).

Also, we're not losing any syntax highlight, since when it doesn't parse, it
doesn't colour. Ie. those blocks are not being highlighted anyway.

I'm trying to get all docs in one go, so that it's easy to revert later if we
do fix, or at least easy to know what's to fix.

This backend was supposed to generate C++ code which will re-construct
the LLVM IR passed as input. This seems to me to have very marginal
usefulness in the first place.

However, the code has never been updated to use IRBuilder, which makes
its current value negative -- people who look at the output may be
steered to use the *wrong* C++ APIs to construct IR.

Furthermore, it's generated code that doesn't compile since at least
2013.

This reverts commit r200561.

This calling convention was an attempt to match the MSVC C++ ABI for
methods that return structures by value.  This solution didn't scale,
because it would have required splitting every CC available on Windows
into two: one for methods and one for free functions.

Now that we can put sret on the second arg (r208453), and Clang does
