We were using a naive heuristic to determine whether a basic block already had
an unconditional branch at the end. This mostly corresponded to reality
(assuming branches got optimised) because there's not much point in a branch to
the next block, but could go wrong.

Creating tests for the ConstantIslands pass is very difficult, since it depends
on precise layout details. Having the ability to precisely inject a number of
bytes into the stream helps greatly.
llvm-svn: 221903
This commit adds a new pass that can inject checks before indirect calls to
make sure that these calls target known locations. It supports three types of
checks and, at compile time, it can take the name of a custom function to call
when an indirect call check fails. The default failure function ignores the
error and continues.
This pass incidentally moves the function JumpInstrTables::transformType from
private to public and makes it static (with a new argument that specifies the
table type to use); this is so that the CFI code can transform function types
at call sites to determine which jump-instruction table to use for the check at
that site.
Also, this removes support for jumptables in ARM, pending further performance
analysis and discussion.

LLVM replaces the SelectionDAG pattern (xor (set_cc cc x y) 1) with
(set_cc !cc x y), which is only correct when the xor has type i1.
Instead, we should check that the constant operand to the xor is all
ones.

We currently try to push an even number of registers to preserve 8-byte
alignment during a function's prologue, but only when the stack alignment is
prcisely 8. Many of the reasons for doing it apply also when that alignment > 8
(the extra store is often free, and can save another stack adjustment, though
less frequently for 16-byte stack alignment).
llvm-svn: 221321
We were making an attempt to do this by adding an extra callee-saved GPR (so
that there was an even number in the list), but when that failed we went ahead
and pushed anyway.
This had a couple of potential issues:
+ The .cfi directives we emit misplaced dN because they were based on
PrologEpilogInserter's calculation.
+ Unaligned stores can be less efficient.
+ Unaligned stores can actually fault (likely only an issue in niche cases,
but possible).
This adds a final explicit stack adjustment if all other options fail, so that
the actual locations of the registers match up with where they should be.

This CPU definition is redundant. The Cortex-A9 is defined as
supporting multiprocessing extensions. Remove its definition and
update appropriate tests.
LLVM defines both a cortex-a9 CPU and a cortex-a9-mp CPU. The only
difference between the two CPU definitions in ARM.td is that
cortex-a9-mp contains the feature FeatureMP for multiprocessing
extensions.
This is redundant since the Cortex-A9 is defined as having
multiprocessing extensions in the TRMs. armcc also defines the
Cortex-A9 as having multiprocessing extensions by default.

This patch adds an optimization in CodeGenPrepare to move an extractelement
right before a store when the target can combine them.
The optimization may promote any scalar operations to vector operations in the
way to make that possible.
** Context **
Some targets use different register files for both vector and scalar operations.
This means that transitioning from one domain to another may incur copy from one
register file to another. These copies are not coalescable and may be expensive.
For example, according to the scheduling model, on cortex-A8 a vector to GPR
move is 20 cycles.
** Motivating Example **
Let us consider an example:
define void @foo(<2 x i32>* %addr1, i32* %dest) {
%in1 = load <2 x i32>* %addr1, align 8
%extract = extractelement <2 x i32> %in1, i32 1
%out = or i32 %extract, 1
store i32 %out, i32* %dest, align 4
ret void
}
As it is, this IR generates the following assembly on armv7:
vldr d16, [r0] @vector load
vmov.32 r0, d16[1] @ cross-register-file copy: 20 cycles
orr r0, r0, #1 @ scalar bitwise or
str r0, [r1] @ scalar store
bx lr
Whereas we could generate much faster code:
vldr d16, [r0] @ vector load
vorr.i32 d16, #0x1 @ vector bitwise or
vst1.32 {d16[1]}, [r1:32] @ vector extract + store
bx lr
Half of the computation made in the vector is useless, but this allows to get
rid of the expensive cross-register-file copy.
** Proposed Solution **
To avoid this cross-register-copy penalty, we promote the scalar operations to
vector operations. The penalty will be removed if we manage to promote the whole
chain of computation in the vector domain.
Currently, we do that only when the chain of computation ends by a store and the
target is able to combine an extract with a store.
Stores are the most likely candidates, because other instructions produce values
that would need to be promoted and so, extracted as some point[1]. Moreover,
this is customary that targets feature stores that perform a vector extract (see
AArch64 and X86 for instance).
The proposed implementation relies on the TargetTransformInfo to decide whether
or not it is beneficial to promote a chain of computation in the vector domain.
Unfortunately, this interface is rather inaccurate for this level of details and
although this optimization may be beneficial for X86 and AArch64, the inaccuracy
will lead to the optimization being too aggressive.
Basically in TargetTransformInfo, everything that is legal has a cost of 1,
whereas, even if a vector type is legal, usually a vector operation is slightly
more expensive than its scalar counterpart. That will lead to too many
promotions that may not be counter balanced by the saving of the
cross-register-file copy. For instance, on AArch64 this penalty is just 4
cycles.
For now, the optimization is just enabled for ARM prior than v8, since those
processors have a larger penalty on cross-register-file copies, and the scope is
limited to basic blocks. Because of these two factors, we limit the effects of
the inaccuracy. Indeed, I did not want to build up a fancy cost model with block
frequency and everything on top of that.
[1] We can imagine targets that can combine an extractelement with other
instructions than just stores. If we want to go into that direction, the current
interfaces must be augmented and, moreover, I think this becomes a global isel
problem.

llvm-svn: 220486
The previous code had a few problems, motivating the choices here.
1. It could create instructions clobbering CPSR, but the incoming MachineInstr
didn't reflect this. A potential source of corruption. This is why the patch
has a new PseudoInst for before lowering.
2. Similarly, there was some code to handle the incoming instruction not being
ARMCC::AL, but this would have caused massive problems if it was actually
invoked when a complex offset needing more than one instruction was requested.
3. It wasn't designed to handle unaligned pointers (or offsets). These should
probably be minimised anyway, but the code needs to deal with them properly
regardless.
4. It had some rather dubious ad-hoc code to avoid calling
emitThumbRegPlusImmediate, a function which should be designed to do precisely
this job.
We seem to cover the common cases correctly now, and hopefully can enhance
emitThumbRegPlusImmediate to handle any extra optimisations we need to add in
future.

The current instruction selection patterns for SMULW[BT] and SMLAW[BT]
are incorrect. These instructions multiply a 32-bit and a 16-bit value
(both signed) and return the top 32 bits of the 48-bit result. This
preserves the 16 bits of overflow, whereas the patterns they currently
match truncate the result to 16 bits then sign extend.
To select these instructions, we would need to match an ISD::SMUL_LOHI,
a sign extend, two shifts and an or. There is no way to match SMUL_LOHI
in an instruction pattern as it defines multiple values, so this would
have to be done in C++. I have raised
http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=21297 to cover allowing correct
selection of these instructions.

Thumb1 has legitimate reasons for preferring 32-bit alignment of types
i1/i8/i16, since the 16-bit encoding of "add rD, sp, #imm" requires #imm to be
a multiple of 4. However, this is a trade-off betweem code size and RAM usage;
the DataLayout string is not the best place to represent it even if desired.
So this patch removes the extra Thumb requirements, hopefully making ARM and
Thumb completely compatible in this respect.
llvm-svn: 219734
There's no hard requirement on LLVM to align local variable to 32-bits, so the
Thumb1 frame handling needs to be able to deal with variables that are only
naturally aligned without falling over.
llvm-svn: 219733
Before, ARM and Thumb mode code had different preferred alignments, which could
lead to some rather unexpected results. There's justification for reducing it
from the default 64-bits (wasted space), but I don't think there is for going
below 32-bits.
There's no actual ABI change here, just to reassure people.

As with x86 and AArch64, certain situations can arise where we need to spill
CPSR in the middle of a calculation. These should be avoided where possible
(MRS/MSR is rather expensive), which ARM is actually better at than the other
two since it tries to Glue defs to uses, but as a last ditch effort, copying is
better than crashing.

argument of the llvm.dbg.declare/llvm.dbg.value intrinsics.
Previously, DIVariable was a variable-length field that has an optional
reference to a Metadata array consisting of a variable number of
complex address expressions. In the case of OpPiece expressions this is
wasting a lot of storage in IR, because when an aggregate type is, e.g.,
SROA'd into all of its n individual members, the IR will contain n copies
of the DIVariable, all alike, only differing in the complex address
reference at the end.
By making the complex address into an extra argument of the
dbg.value/dbg.declare intrinsics, all of the pieces can reference the
same variable and the complex address expressions can be uniqued across
the CU, too.
Down the road, this will allow us to move other flags, such as
"indirection" out of the DIVariable, too.
The new intrinsics look like this:
declare void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata %storage, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
declare void @llvm.dbg.value(metadata %storage, i64 %offset, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
This patch adds a new LLVM-local tag to DIExpressions, so we can detect
and pretty-print DIExpression metadata nodes.
What this patch doesn't do:
This patch does not touch the "Indirect" field in DIVariable; but moving
that into the expression would be a natural next step.

Currently, we only codegen the VRINT[APMXZR] and VCVT[BT] instructions
when targeting ARMv8, but they are actually present on any target with
FP-ARMv8. Note that FP-ARMv8 is called FPv5 when is is part of an
M-profile core, but they have the same instructions so we model them
both as FPARMv8 in the ARM backend.

The Cortex-M7 has 3 options for its FPU: none, FPv5-SP-D16 and
FPv5-DP-D16. FPv5 has the same instructions as FP-ARMv8, so it can be
modelled using the same target feature, and all double-precision
operations are already disabled by the fp-only-sp target features.

This testcase was not testing what it meant: because there were only two checks for

CHECK-LABELs to make it a bit less brittle.

The fix is slightly different then x86 (see r216117) because the number of values

Summary:
This patch was originally in D5304 (I could not find a way to reopen that revision).
It was accepted, commited and broke the build bots because the overloading of
the constructor of ArrayRef for braced initializer lists is not supported by all
toolchains. I then reverted it, and propose this fixed version that uses a plain
C array instead in makeDMB (that array is then converted implicitly to an
ArrayRef, but that is not behind an ifdef). Could someone confirm me whether
initialization lists for plain C arrays are supported by every toolchain used
to build llvm ? Otherwise I can just initialize the array in the old way:
args[0] = ...; .. ; args[5] = ...;
Below is the description of the original patch:
```
I had only tested this code for ARMv7 and ARMv8. This patch adds several
fallback paths if the processor does not support dmb ish:
- dmb sy if a cortex-M with support for dmb
- mcr p15, #0, r0, c7, c10, #5 for ARMv6 (special instruction equivalent to a DMB)
These fallback paths were chosen based on the code for fence seq_cst.

The FPv4-SP floating-point unit is generally referred to as

This patch enables the use of these registers, the main advantage of
which is that we now comply with the AAPCS-VFP calling convention.
This partially reverts r209650, which added some AAPCS-VFP support,
but did not handle return values or alignment of double arguments in

This patch refactors how the copy optimizations are done in the peephole
optimizer. Prior to this patch, we had one copy-related optimization that
replaced a copy or bitcast by a generic, more suitable (in terms of register
file), copy.
With this patch, the peephole optimizer features two copy-related optimizations:
1. One for rewriting generic copies to generic copies:
PeepholeOptimizer::optimizeCoalescableCopy.
2. One for replacing non-generic copies with generic copies:
PeepholeOptimizer::optimizeUncoalescableCopy.
The goals of these two optimizations are slightly different: one rewrite the
operand of the instruction (#1), the other kills off the non-generic instruction
and replace it by a (sequence of) generic instruction(s).
Both optimizations rely on the ValueTracker introduced in r212100.
The ValueTracker has been refactored to use the information from the
TargetInstrInfo for non-generic instruction. As part of the refactoring, we
switched the tracking from the index of the definition to the actual register
(virtual or physical). This one change is to provide better consistency with
register related APIs and to ease the use of the TargetInstrInfo.
Moreover, this patch introduces a new helper class CopyRewriter used to ease the
rewriting of generic copies (i.e., #1).
Finally, this patch adds a dead code elimination pass right after the peephole
optimizer to get rid of dead code that may appear after rewriting.
This is related to <rdar://problem/12702965>.

Original commit message:
This changes the order in which FastISel tries to materialize a constant.
Originally it would try to use a simple target-independent approach, which
can lead to the generation of inefficient code.
On X86 this would result in the use of movabsq to materialize any 64bit
integer constant - even for simple and small values such as 0 and 1. Also
some very funny floating-point materialization could be observed too.
On AArch64 it would materialize the constant 0 in a register even the
architecture has an actual "zero" register.
On ARM it would generate unnecessary mov instructions or not use mvn.
This change simply changes the order and always asks the target first if it
likes to materialize the constant. This doesn't fix all the issues
mentioned above, but it enables the targets to implement such
optimizations.

Externally-defined functions with weak linkage should not be
tail-called on ARM or AArch64, as the AAELF spec requires normal calls
to undefined weak functions to be replaced with a NOP or jump to the
next instruction. The behaviour of branch instructions in this
situation (as used for tail calls) is implementation-defined, so we
cannot rely on the linker replacing the tail call with a return.

The set of functions defined in the RTABI was separated for no real reason.
This brings us closer to proper utilisation of the functions defined by the
RTABI. It also sets the ground for correctly emitting function calls to AEABI
functions on all AEABI conforming platforms.
The previously existing lie on the behaviour of __ldivmod and __uldivmod is
propagated as it is beyond the scope of the change.
The changes to the test are due to the fact that we now use the divmod functions
which return both the quotient and remainder and thus we no longer need to
invoke two functions on Linux (making it closer to EABI's behaviour).

For many Thumb-1 register register instructions, setting the CPSR is not
permitted inside an IT block. We would not correctly flag those instructions.
The previous change to identify this scenario was insufficient as it did not
actually catch all the instances. The current list is formed by manual
inspection of the ARMv6M ARM.
The change to the Thumb2 IT block test is due to the fact that the new more
stringent checking of the MIs results in the If Conversion pass being prevented
from executing (since not all the instructions in the BB are predicable). This
results in code gen changes.
Thanks to Tim Northover for pointing out that the previous patch was
insufficient and hinting that the use of the v6M ARM would be much easier to use
than the v7 or v8!

By default, LLVM uses the "C" calling convention for all runtime
library functions. The half-precision FP conversion functions use the
soft-float calling convention, and are needed for some targets which
use the hard-float convention by default, so must have their calling
convention explicitly set.
llvm-svn: 215348
The ARM ARM states that CPSR may not be updated by a MUL in thumb mode. Due to
an ordering of Thumb 2 Size Reduction and If Conversion, we would end up
generating a THUMB MULS inside an IT block.
The If Conversion pass uses the TTI isPredicable method to ensure that it can
transform a Basic Block. However, because we only check for IT handling on
Thumb2 functions, we may miss some cases. Even then, it only validates that the
CPSR is not *live* rather than it is not accessed. This corrects the handling
for that particular case since the same restriction does not hold on the vast
majority of the instructions.
This does prevent the IfConversion optimization from kicking in in certain
cases, but generating correct code is more valuable. Addresses PR20555.

BranchFolderPass was not correctly setting the basic block branch weights when
tail-merging created or merged blocks. This patch recomutes the weights of
tail-merged blocks using the following formula:
branch_weight(merged block to successor j) =
sum(block_frequency(bb) * branch_probability(bb -> j))
bb is a block that is in the set of merged blocks.

Particularly on MachO, we were generating "blx _dest" instructions on M-class
CPUs, which don't actually exist. They happen to get fixed up by the linker
into valid "bl _dest" instructions (which is why such a massive issue has
remained largely undetected), but we shouldn't rely on that.
llvm-svn: 214959
This was coming in weird debug info that had variables (and hence
debug_locs) but was in GMLT mode (because it was missing the 13th field
of the compile_unit metadata) so no ranges were constructed. We should
always have at least one range for any CU with a debug_loc in it -
because the range should cover the debug_loc.
The assertion just ensures that the "!= 1" range case inside the
subsequent loop doesn't get entered for the case where there are no
ranges at all, which should never reach here in the first place.
llvm-svn: 214939
Without the 13th field, the "emission kind" field defaults to 0 (which
is not equal to either of the values of the emission kind enum (1 ==
full debug info, 2 == line tables only)).
In this particular instance, the comparison with "FullDebugInfo" was
done when adding elements to the ranges list - so for these test cases
no values were added to the ranges list.
This got weirder when emitting debug_loc entries as the addresses should
be relative to the range of the CU if the CU has only one range (the
reasonable assumption is that if we're emitting debug_loc lists for a CU
that CU has at least one range - but due to the above situation, it has
zero) so the ranges were emitted relative to the start of the section
rather than relative to the start of the CU's singular range.
Fix these tests by accounting for the difference in the description of
debug_loc entries (in some cases making the test ignorant to these
differences, in others adding the extra label difference expression,
etc) or the presence/absence of high/low_pc on the CU, and add the 13th
field to their CUs to enable proper "full debug info" emission here.
In a future commit I'll fix up a bunch of other test cases that are not
so rigorously depending on this behavior, but still doing similarly
weird things due to the missing 13th field.

Allow vector fabs operations on bitcasted constant integer values to be optimized
in the same way that we already optimize scalar fabs.
So for code like this:

%fabs = call <2 x float> @llvm.fabs.v2f32(<2 x float> %bitcast)
%ret = bitcast <2 x float> %fabs to i64
Instead of generating something like this:
movabsq (constant pool loadi of mask for sign bits)
vmovq (move from integer register to vector/fp register)
vandps (mask off sign bits)
vmovq (move vector/fp register back to integer return register)
We should generate:
mov (put constant value in return register)
I have also removed a redundant clause in the first 'if' statement:
N0.getOperand(0).getValueType().isInteger()
is the same thing as:
IntVT.isInteger()

It's a bit of a tradeoff, since llvm-dwarfdump doesn't print the name of
the global symbol being used as an address in the addressing mode, but
this avoids the dependence on hardcoded set labels that keep changing
(5+ commits over the last few years that each update the set label as it
changes due to other, unrelated differences in output). This could've,
instead, been changed to match the set name then match the name in the
string pool but that would present other issues (needing to skip over
the sets that weren't of interest, etc) and checking that the addresses
(granted, without relocations applied - so it's not the whole story)
match in the two variable location descriptions seems sufficient and
fairly stable here.
There are a few similar other tests with similar label dependence that
I'll update soonish.

Before this patch we had
@a = weak global ...
but
@b = alias weak ...
The patch changes aliases to look more like global variables.
Looking at some really old code suggests that the reason was that the old
bison based parser had a reduction for alias linkages and another one for
global variable linkages. Putting the alias first avoided the reduce/reduce
conflict.
The days of the old .ll parser are long gone. The new one parses just "linkage"
and a later check is responsible for deciding if a linkage is valid in a
given context.

which have successfully round-tripped through the combine phase, and use
this to ensure all operands to DAG nodes are visited by the combiner,
even if they are only added during the combine phase.
This is critical to have the combiner reach nodes that are *introduced*
during combining. Previously these would sometimes be visited and
sometimes not be visited based on whether they happened to end up on the
worklist or not. Now we always run them through the combiner.
This fixes quite a few bad codegen test cases lurking in the suite while
also being more principled. Among these, the TLS codegeneration is
particularly exciting for programs that have this in the critical path
like TSan-instrumented binaries (although I think they engineer to use
a different TLS that is faster anyways).
I've tried to check for compile-time regressions here by running llc
over a merged (but not LTO-ed) clang bitcode file and observed at most
a 3% slowdown in llc. Given that this is essentially a worst case (none
of opt or clang are running at this phase) I think this is tolerable.
The actual LTO case should be even less costly, and the cost in normal
compilation should be negligible.
With this combining logic, it is possible to re-legalize as we combine
which is necessary to implement PSHUFB formation on x86 as
a post-legalize DAG combine (my ultimate goal).

The post-indexed instructions were missing the constraint, causing unpredictable STRH instructions to be emitted.
The earlyclobber constraint on the pre-indexed STR instructions is not strictly necessary, as the instruction selection for pre-indexed STR instructions goes through an additional layer of pseudo instructions which have the constraint defined, however it doesn't hurt to specify the constraint directly on the pre-indexed instructions as well, since at some point someone might create instances of them programmatically and then the constraint is definitely needed.

The old behavior could cause arbitrarily bad memory usage in the DAG
combiner if there was heavy traffic of adding nodes already on the
worklist to it. This commit switches the DAG combine worklist to work
the same way as the instcombine worklist where we null-out removed
entries and only add new entries to the worklist. My measurements of
codegen time shows slight improvement. The memory utilization is
unsurprisingly dominated by other factors (the IR and DAG itself
I suspect).
This change results in subtle, frustrating churn in the particular order
in which DAG combines are applied which causes a number of minor
regressions where we fail to match a pattern previously matched by
accident. AFAICT, all of these should be using AddToWorklist to directly
or should be written in a less brittle way. None of the changes seem
drastically bad, and a few of the changes seem distinctly better.
A major change required to make this work is to significantly harden the
way in which the DAG combiner handle nodes which become dead
(zero-uses). Previously, we relied on the ability to "priority-bump"
them on the combine worklist to achieve recursive deletion of these
nodes and ensure that the frontier of remaining live nodes all were
added to the worklist. Instead, I've introduced a routine to just
implement that precise logic with no indirection. It is a significantly
simpler operation than that of the combiner worklist proper. I suspect
this will also fix some other problems with the combiner.
I think the x86 changes are really minor and uninteresting, but the
avx512 change at least is hiding a "regression" (despite the test case
being just noise, not testing some performance invariant) that might be
looked into. Not sure if any of the others impact specific "important"
code paths, but they didn't look terribly interesting to me, or the
changes were really minor. The consensus in review is to fix any
regressions that show up after the fact here.
Thanks to the other reviewers for checking the output on other
architectures. There is a specific regression on ARM that Tim already
has a fix prepped to commit.

We should update the usages to all of the results;
otherwise, we might get assertion failure or SEGV during
the type legalization of ATOMIC_CMP_SWAP_WITH_SUCCESS
with two or more illegal types.
For example, in the following sequence, both i8 and i1
might be illegal in some target, e.g. armv5, mipsel, mips64el,
%0 = cmpxchg i8* %ptr, i8 %desire, i8 %new monotonic monotonic
%1 = extractvalue { i8, i1 } %0, 1
Since both i8 and i1 should be legalized, the corresponding
ATOMIC_CMP_SWAP_WITH_SUCCESS dag will be checked/replaced/updated
twice.
If we don't update the usage to *ALL* of the results in the
first round, the DAG for extractvalue might be processed earlier.
The GetPromotedInteger() will result in assertion failure,
because its operand (i.e. the success bit of cmpxchg) is not
promoted beforehand.

When performing a dynamic stack adjustment without optimisations, we would mark
SP as def and R4 as kill. This occurred as part of the expansion of a

Furthermore, the VTList for the chain had an incorrect parameter type of i32

Actual support for softening f16 operations is still limited, and can be added

This makes the two intrinsics @llvm.convert.from.f16 and
@llvm.convert.to.f16 accept types other than simple "float". This is
only strictly needed for the truncate operation, since otherwise
double rounding occurs and there's no way to represent the strict IEEE
conversion. However, for symmetry we allow larger types in the extend
too.
During legalization, we can expand an "fp16_to_double" operation into
two extends for convenience, but abort when the truncate isn't legal. A new
libcall is probably needed here.
Even after this commit, various target tweaks are needed to actually use the
extended intrinsics. I've put these into separate commits for clarity, so there
are no actual tests of f64 conversion here.

This crash was pretty common while compiling Rust for iOS (armv7). Reason -
SjLj preparation step was lowering aggregate arguments as ExtractValue +

them quite extensively so this patch uses a 'select true, %val, undef'

This completes the handling for DLL import storage symbols when lowering
instructions. A DLL import storage symbol must have an additional load
performed prior to use. This is applicable to variables and functions.
This is particularly important for non-function symbols as it is possible to
handle function references by emitting a thunk which performs the translation
from the unprefixed __imp_ symbol to the proper symbol (although, this is a
non-optimal lowering). For a variable symbol, no such thunk can be
accommodated.

This commit adds a weak variant of the cmpxchg operation, as described
in C++11. A cmpxchg instruction with this modifier is permitted to
fail to store, even if the comparison indicated it should.
As a result, cmpxchg instructions must return a flag indicating
success in addition to their original iN value loaded. Thus, for
uniformity *all* cmpxchg instructions now return "{ iN, i1 }". The
second flag is 1 when the store succeeded.
At the DAG level, a new ATOMIC_CMP_SWAP_WITH_SUCCESS node has been
added as the natural representation for the new cmpxchg instructions.
It is a strong cmpxchg.
By default this gets Expanded to the existing ATOMIC_CMP_SWAP during
Legalization, so existing backends should see no change in behaviour.
If they wish to deal with the enhanced node instead, they can call
setOperationAction on it. Beware: as a node with 2 results, it cannot
be selected from TableGen.
Currently, no use is made of the extra information provided in this
patch. Test updates are almost entirely adapting the input IR to the
new scheme.
Summary for out of tree users:
------------------------------
+ Legacy Bitcode files are upgraded during read.
+ Legacy assembly IR files will be invalid.
+ Front-ends must adapt to different type for "cmpxchg".
+ Backends should be unaffected by default.

The armv7-windows-itanium environment is nearly identical to the MSVC ABI. It
has a few divergences, mostly revolving around the use of the Itanium ABI for
C++. VLA support is one of the extensions that are amongst the set of the
extensions.
This adds support for proper VLA emission for this environment. This is
somewhat similar to the handling for __chkstk emission on X86 and the large

This patch changes GlobalAlias to point to an arbitrary ConstantExpr and it is
up to MC (or the system assembler) to decide if that expression is valid or not.
This reduces our ability to diagnose invalid uses and how early we can spot
them, but it also lets us do things like
@test5 = alias inttoptr(i32 sub (i32 ptrtoint (i32* @test2 to i32),
i32 ptrtoint (i32* @bar to i32)) to i32*)
An important implication of this patch is that the notion of aliased global
doesn't exist any more. The alias has to encode the information needed to
access it in its metadata (linkage, visibility, type, etc).
Another consequence to notice is that getSection has to return a "const char *".
It could return a NullTerminatedStringRef if there was such a thing, but when
that was proposed the decision was to just uses "const char*" for that.

Darwin prologues save their GPRs in two stages: a narrow push of r0-r7 & lr,
followed by a wide push of the remaining registers if there are any. AAPCS uses
a single push.w instruction.
It turns out that, on average, enough registers get pushed that code is smaller
in the AAPCS prologue, which is a nice property for M-class programmers. They
also have other options available for back-traces, so can hopefully deal with
the fact that FP & LR aren't adjacent in memory.

The C and C++ semantics for compare_exchange require it to return a bool
indicating success. This gets mapped to LLVM IR which follows each cmpxchg with
an icmp of the value loaded against the desired value.
When lowered to ldxr/stxr loops, this extra comparison is redundant: its
results are implicit in the control-flow of the function.
This commit makes two changes: it replaces that icmp with appropriate PHI
nodes, and then makes sure earlyCSE is called after expansion to actually make
use of the opportunities revealed.
I've also added -{arm,aarch64}-enable-atomic-tidy options, so that
existing fragile tests aren't perturbed too much by the change. Many
of them either rely on undef/unreachable too pervasively to be
restored to something well-defined (particularly while making sure
they test the same obscure assert from many years ago), or depend on a
particular CFG shape, which is disrupted by SimplifyCFG.

This intrinsic permits the emission of platform specific undefined sequences.
ARM has reserved the 0xde opcode which takes a single integer parameter (ignored
by the CPU). This permits the operating system to implement custom behaviour on

generating the target specific behaviour from the frontend. This is
particularly useful for Windows on ARM which has made use of a series of these
special opcodes.

Although the previous code would construct a bundle and add the correct elements
to it, it would not finalise the bundle. This resulted in the InternalRead
markers not being added to the MachineOperands nor, more importantly, the
externally visible defs to the bundle itself. So, although the bundle was not
exposing the def, the generated code would be correct because there was no
optimisations being performed. When optimisations were enabled, the post
register allocator would kick in, and the hazard recognizer would reorder
operations around the load which would define the value being operated upon.
Rather than manually constructing the bundle, simply construct and finalise the
bundle via the finaliseBundle call after both MIs have been emitted. This
improves the code generation with optimisations where IMAGE_REL_ARM_MOV32T
relocations are emitted.
The changes to the other tests are the result of the bundle generation
preventing the scheduler from hoisting the moves across the loads. The net
effect of the generated code is equivalent, but, is much more identical to what
is actually being lowered.

This patch changes the design of GlobalAlias so that it doesn't take a
ConstantExpr anymore. It now points directly to a GlobalObject, but its type is
independent of the aliasee type.
To avoid changing all alias related tests in this patches, I kept the common
syntax
@foo = alias i32* @bar
to mean the same as now. The cases that used to use cast now use the more
general syntax
@foo = alias i16, i32* @bar.
Note that GlobalAlias now behaves a bit more like GlobalVariable. We
know that its type is always a pointer, so we omit the '*'.
For the bitcode, a nice surprise is that we were writing both identical types
already, so the format change is minimal. Auto upgrade is handled by looking
through the casts and no new fields are needed for now. New bitcode will
simply have different types for Alias and Aliasee.
One last interesting point in the patch is that replaceAllUsesWith becomes
smart enough to avoid putting a ConstantExpr in the aliasee. This seems better
than checking and updating every caller.
A followup patch will delete getAliasedGlobal now that it is redundant. Another
patch will add support for an explicit offset.
