Alias with unnamed_addr were in a strange state. It is stored in GlobalValue,
the language reference talks about "unnamed_addr aliases" but the verifier
was rejecting them.
It seems natural to allow unnamed_addr in aliases:
* It is a property of how it is accessed, not of the data itself.
* It is perfectly possible to write code that depends on the address
of an alias.
This patch then makes unname_addr legal for aliases. One side effect is that
the syntax changes for a corner case: In globals, unnamed_addr is now printed
before the address space.

We extended the .section syntax to allow multiple sections with the
same name but different comdats, but currently we don't make sure that
the output section has that comdat symbol.
That happens to work with the code llc produces currently because it looks like
.section secName, "dr", one_only, "COMDATSym"
.globl COMDATSym
COMDATSym:
....
but that is not very friendly to anyone coding in assembly or even to
llc once we get comdat support in the IR.
This patch changes the coff object writer to make sure the comdat symbol is
output just after the section symbol, as required by the coff spec.

Chandler correctly pointed out that I need an LLVM IR test for
r210282, which modified the vperm -> shuffle transform for little
endian PowerPC. This patch provides that test.

Most issues are on mishandling s/zext.
Fixes:
1. When rebuilding new indices, s/zext should be distributed to
sub-expressions. e.g., sext(a +nsw (b +nsw 5)) = sext(a) + sext(b) + 5 but not
sext(a + b) + 5. This also affects the logic of recursively looking for a
constant offset, we need to include s/zext into the context of the searching.
2. Function find should return the bitwidth of the constant offset instead of
always sign-extending it to i64.
3. Stop shortcutting zext'ed GEP indices. LLVM conceptually sign-extends GEP
indices to pointer-size before computing the address. Therefore, gep base,
zext(a + b) != gep base, a + b
Improvements:
1. Add an optimization for splitting sext(a + b): if a + b is proven
non-negative (e.g., used as an index of an inbound GEP) and one of a, b is
non-negative, sext(a + b) = sext(a) + sext(b)
2. Function Distributable checks whether both sext and zext can be distributed
to operands of a binary operator. This helps us split zext(sext(a + b)) to
zext(sext(a) + zext(sext(b)) when a + b does not signed or unsigned overflow.
Refactoring:
Merge some common logic of handling add/sub/or in find.
Testing:
Add many tests in split-gep.ll and split-gep-and-gvn.ll to verify the changes
we made.

This is a first step in seeing if it is possible to make llvm-nm produce
the same output as darwin's nm(1). Darwin's default format is bsd but its
-m output prints the longer Mach-O specific details. For now I added the
"-format darwin" to do this (whos name may need to change in the future).
As there are other Mach-O specific flags to nm(1) which I'm hoping to add some
how in the future. But I wanted to see if I could get the correct output for
-m flag using llvm-nm and the libObject interfaces.
I got this working but would love to hear what others think about this approach
to getting object/format specific details printed with llvm-nm.

As discussed in cfe commit r210279, the correct little-endian
semantics for the vec_perm Altivec interfaces are implemented by
reversing the order of the input vectors and complementing the permute
control vector. This converts the desired permute from little endian
element order into the big endian element order that the underlying
PowerPC vperm instruction uses. This is represented with a
ppc_altivec_vperm intrinsic function.
The instruction combining pass contains code to convert a
ppc_altivec_vperm intrinsic into a vector shuffle operation when the
intrinsic has a permute control vector (mask) that is a constant.
However, the vector shuffle operation assumes that vector elements are
in natural order for their endianness, so for little endian code we
will get the wrong result with the existing transformation.
This patch reverses the semantic change to vec_perm that was performed
in altivec.h by once again swapping the input operands and
complementing the permute control vector, returning the element
ordering to little endian.
The correctness of this code is tested by the new perm.c test added in
a previous patch, and by other tests in the test suite that fail
without this patch.

It includes a pass that rewrites all indirect calls to jumptable functions to pass through these tables.
This also adds backend support for generating the jump-instruction tables on ARM and X86.
Note that since the jumptable attribute creates a second function pointer for a
function, any function marked with jumptable must also be marked with unnamed_addr.

This is a preliminary patch for the PowerPC64LE support. In stage 1
of the vector support, we will support the VMX (Altivec) instruction
set, but will not yet support the VSX instructions. This is merely a
staging issue to provide functional vector support as soon as
possible.

When not optimizing, do not run the IfConverter pass, this makes
debugging more difficult (and causes a testsuite failure in
DebugInfo/unconditional-branch.ll).

* Move the instruction that changes sp outside of the branch delay slot.
* Bundle-align the target of indirect branch.

Unused arguments were not being added to the argument list, but instead
treated as arbitrary scope variables. This meant they weren't carefully
added in the original argument order.
In this particular example, though, it turns out the argument is only
/mostly/ unused (well, actually it's entirely used, but in a specific
way). It's a struct that, due to ABI reasons, is decomposed into chunks
(exactly one chunk, since it has one member) and then passed. Since only
one of those chunks is used (SROA, etc, kill the original reconstitution
code) we don't have a location to describe the whole variable.
In this particular case, since the struct consists of just the one int,
once we have partial location information, this should have a location
that describes the entire variable (since the piece is the entirety of
the object).
And at some point we'll need to describe the location of even /entirely/
unused arguments so that they can at least be printed on function entry.

Abstract variables within abstract scopes that are entirely optimized
away in their first inlining are omitted because their scope is not
present so the variable is never created. Instead, we should ensure the
scope is created so the variable can be added, even if it's been
optimized away in its first inlining.
This fixes the incorrect debug info in missing-abstract-variable.ll
(added in r210143) and passes an asserts self-hosting build, so
hopefully there's not more of these issues left behind... *fingers
crossed*.

We would previously assert here when trying to figure out the section
for the global.
This makes us handle the situation more gracefully since the IR isn't
malformed.

When JITting a large project such as Boost it's quite hard to figure out the problematic inline asm without debug location. This patch provides debug location printout before the JIT aborts due to inline asm. printDebugLoc() was exposed from MachineInstr.cpp and reused here.
If the JIT run with debug info, don't bomb on DBG_VALUE but ignore them.

Add support to llvm-readobj to decode Windows ARM Exception Handling data. This
uses the previously added datastructures to decode the information into a format
that can be used by tests. This is a necessary step to add support for emitting
Windows on ARM exception handling information.
A fair amount of formatting inspiration is drawn from the Win64 EH printer as
well as the ARM EHABI printer. This allows for a reasonably thorough look into
the encoded data.
llvm-svn: 210192
This is purely a documentation/whitespace cleanup for the format support
functions.
The current style does not duplicate the function/class names in the
documentation; conform to this style.
Additionally, there was a large amount of duplication of comments that added no
real value. Use block comments for the related sets of functions which are used
for type deduction and parameter container classes.
No functional change.
