Previously, subtarget features were a bitfield with the underlying type being uint64_t.
Since several targets (X86 and ARM, in particular) have hit or were very close to hitting this bound, switching the features to use a bitset.
No functional change.
The first several times this was committed (e.g. r229831, r233055), it caused several buildbot failures.
Apparently the reason for most failures was both clang and gcc's inability to deal with large numbers (> 10K) of bitset constructor calls in tablegen-generated initializers of instruction info tables.
This should now be fixed.

Summary:
The loop which emits AssemblerPredicate conditions also links them together by emitting a '&&'.
If the 1st predicate is not an AssemblerPredicate, while the 2nd one is, nothing gets emitted for the 1st one, but we still emit the '&&' because of the 2nd predicate.
This generated code looks like "( && Cond2)" and is invalid.

This reverts commit r233055.
It still causes buildbot failures (gcc running out of memory on several platforms, and a self-host failure on arm), although less than the previous time.

Now that SmallString is a first-class citizen, most SmallString::str()
calls are not required. This patch removes a whole bunch of them, yet
there are lots more.
There are two use cases where str() is really needed:
1) To use one of StringRef member functions which is not available in
SmallString.
2) To convert to std::string, as StringRef implicitly converts while
SmallString do not. We may wish to change this, but it may introduce
ambiguity.

This patch was generated by a clang tidy checker that is being open sourced.
The documentation of that checker is the following:
/// The emptiness of a container should be checked using the empty method
/// instead of the size method. It is not guaranteed that size is a
/// constant-time function, and it is generally more efficient and also shows
/// clearer intent to use empty. Furthermore some containers may implement the
/// empty method but not implement the size method. Using empty whenever
/// possible makes it easier to switch to another container in the future.

There are currently two schemes for mapping instruction operands to
instruction-format variables for generating the instruction encoders and
decoders for the assembler and disassembler respectively: a) to map by name and
b) to map by position.
In the long run, we'd like to remove the position-based scheme and use only
name-based mapping. Unfortunately, the name-based scheme currently cannot deal
with complex operands (those with suboperands), and so we currently must use
the position-based scheme for those. On the other hand, the position-based
scheme cannot deal with (register) variables that are split into multiple
ranges. An upcoming commit to the PowerPC backend (adding VSX support) will
require this capability. While we could teach the position-based scheme to
handle that, since we'd like to move away from the position-based mapping
generally, it seems silly to teach it new tricks now. What makes more sense is
to allow for partial transitioning: use the name-based mapping when possible,
and only use the position-based scheme when necessary.
Now the problem is that mixing the two sensibly was not possible: the
position-based mapping would map based on position, but would not skip those
variables that were mapped by name. Instead, the two sets of assignments would
overlap. However, I cannot currently change the current behavior, because there
are some backends that rely on it [I think mistakenly, but I'll send a message
to llvmdev about that]. So I've added a new TableGen bit variable:
noNamedPositionallyEncodedOperands, that can be used to cause the
position-based mapping to skip variables mapped by name.

Unfortunately, the PowerPC instruction definitions make heavy use of the
positional operand encoding heuristic to map operands onto bitfield variables
in the instruction definitions. Changing this to use name-based mapping is not
trivial, however, because additional infrastructure needs to be designed to
handle mapping of complex operands (with multiple suboperands) onto multiple
bitfield variables.
In the mean time, this adds support for positionally encoded operands to
FixedLenDecoderEmitter, so that we can generate a disassembler for the PowerPC
backend. To prevent an accidental reliance on this feature, and to prevent an
undesirable interaction with existing disassemblers, a backend must opt-in to
this support by setting the new decodePositionallyEncodedOperands
instruction-set bit to true.
When enabled, this iterates the variables that contribute to the instruction
encoding, just as the encoder does, and emulates the procedure the encoder uses
to map "numbered" operands to variables. The bit range for each variable is
also determined as the encoder determines them. This map is then consulted
during the decoder-generator's loop over operands to decode, allowing the
decoder to understand both position-based and name-based operand-to-variable
mappings.
As noted in the comment on the decodePositionallyEncodedOperands definition,
this support should be removed once it is no longer needed. There should be no
change to existing disassemblers.

This is more prep for adding the PowerPC disassembler. FixedLenDecoderEmitter
should recognize PointerLikeRegClass operands as register types, and generate
register-like decoding calls instead of treating them like immediates.
llvm-svn: 197680
The convention used to specify the PowerPC ISA is that bits are numbered in
reverse order (0 is the index of the high bit). To support this "little endian"
encoding convention, CodeEmitterGen will reverse the bit numberings prior to
generating the encoding tables. In order to generate a disassembler,
FixedLenDecoderEmitter needs to do the same.
This moves the bit reversal logic out of CodeEmitterGen and into CodeGenTarget
(where it can be used by both CodeEmitterGen and FixedLenDecoderEmitter). This
is prep work for disassembly support in the PPC backend (which is the only
in-tree user of this little-endian encoding support).

Most places can use PrintFatalError as the unwinding mechanism was not
used for anything other than printing the error. The single exception
was CodeGenDAGPatterns.cpp, where intermediate errors during type
resolution were ignored to simplify incremental platform development.
This use is replaced by an error flag in TreePattern and bailout earlier
in various places if it is set.

Some of these dyn_cast<>'s would be better phrased as isa<> or cast<>.
That will happen in a future patch.
There are also two dyn_cast_or_null<>'s slipped in instead of
dyn_cast<>'s, since they were causing crashes with just dyn_cast<>.
llvm-svn: 165646
This is a mechanical change of dynamic_cast<> to dyn_cast<>. A number of
these uses are actually more like isa<> or cast<>, and will be changed
to the semanticaly appropriate one in a future patch.

Keep GCC's warnings happy. It can't reason out that the state machine won't

- This patch is inspired by the failure of the following code snippet
which is used to convert enumerable values into encoding bits to
improve the readability of td files.
class S<int s> {
bits<2> V = !if(!eq(s, 8), {0, 0},
!if(!eq(s, 16), {0, 1},
!if(!eq(s, 32), {1, 0},
!if(!eq(s, 64), {1, 1}, {?, ?}))));
}
Later, PR8330 is found to report not exactly the same bug relevant
issue to bit/bits values.
- Instead of resolving bit/bits values separately through
resolveBitReference(), this patch adds getBit() for all Inits and
resolves bit value by resolving plus getting the specified bit. This
unifies the resolving of bit with other values and removes redundant
logic for resolving bit only. In addition,
BitsInit::resolveReferences() is optimized to take advantage of this
origanization by resolving VarBitInit's variable reference first and
then getting bits from it.
- The type interference in '!if' operator is revised to support possible
combinations of int and bits/bit in MHS and RHS.
- As there may be illegal assignments from integer value to bit, says
assign 2 to a bit, but we only check this during instantiation in some
cases, e.g.
bit V = !if(!eq(x, 17), 0, 2);
Verbose diagnostic message is generated when invalid value is
resolveed to help locating the error.
- PR8330 is fixed as well.

Refactor the TableGen'erated fixed length disassemblmer to use a
table-driven state machine rather than a massive set of nested
switch() statements.
As a result, the ARM Disassembler (ARMDisassembler.cpp) builds much more
quickly and generates a smaller end result. For a Release+Asserts build on
a 16GB 3.4GHz i7 iMac w/ SSD:
Time to compile at -O2 (averaged w/ hot caches):
Previous: 35.5s
New: 8.9s
TEXT size:
Previous: 447,251
New: 297,661
Builds in 25% of the time previously required and generates code 66% of
the size.
Execution time of the disassembler is only slightly slower (7% disassembling
10 million ARM instructions, 19.6s vs 21.0s). The new implementation has
not yet been tuned, however, so the performance should almost certainly
be recoverable should it become a concern.
