James Molloy 7395a8182c [Codegen] Add intrinsics 'absdiff' and corresponding SDNodes for absolute difference operation
This adds new intrinsics "*absdiff" for absolute difference ops to facilitate efficient code generation for "sum of absolute differences" operation.
The patch also contains the introduction of corresponding SDNodes and basic legalization support.Sanity of the generated code is tested on X86.

This is 1st of the three patches.

Hal Finkel 9bbad03b98 [PowerPC] Use the ABI indirect-call protocol for patchpoints
We used to take the address specified as the direct target of the patchpoint
and did no TOC-pointer handling.  This, however, as not all that useful,
because MCJIT tends to create a lot of modules, and they have their own TOC
sections. Thus, to call from the generated code to other generated code, you
really need to switch TOC pointers. Make this work as expected, and under
ELFv1, tread the address as the function descriptor address so that the correct
TOC pointer can be loaded.

James Molloy 88eb535b2d Add support for fast-math flags to the FCmp instruction.
FCmp behaves a lot like a floating-point binary operator in many ways,
and can benefit from fast-math information. Flags such as nsz and nnan
can affect if this fcmp (in combination with a select) can be treated
as a fminnum/fmaxnum operation.

This adds backwards-compatible bitcode support, IR parsing and writing,
LangRef changes and IRBuilder changes. I'll need to audit InstSimplify
and InstCombine in a followup to find places where flags should be
copied.

Elena Demikhovsky 37a4da825f Extended syntax of vector version of getelementptr instruction.
The justification of this change is here: http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvmdev/2015-March/082989.html

According to the current GEP syntax, vector GEP requires that each index must be a vector with the same number of elements.

%A = getelementptr i8, <4 x i8*> %ptrs, <4 x i64> %offsets

In this implementation I let each index be or vector or scalar. All vector indices must have the same number of elements. The scalar value will mean the splat vector value.

(1) %A = getelementptr i8, i8* %ptr, <4 x i64> %offsets
or
(2) %A = getelementptr i8, <4 x i8*> %ptrs, i64 %offset

In all cases the %A type is <4 x i8*>

In the case (2) we add the same offset to all pointers.

The case (1) covers C[B[i]] case, when we have the same base C and different offsets B[i].

The documentation is updated.

Reid Kleckner d5afc62ff6 [WinEH] Add localaddress intrinsic instead of using frameaddress

Reid Kleckner 60381791b5 Rename llvm.frameescape and llvm.framerecover to localescape and localrecover
Summary:
Initially, these intrinsics seemed like part of a family of "frame"
related intrinsics, but now I think that's more confusing than helpful.
Initially, the LangRef specified that this would create a new kind of
allocation that would be allocated at a fixed offset from the frame
pointer (EBP/RBP). We ended up dropping that design, and leaving the
stack frame layout alone.

These intrinsics are really about sharing local stack allocations, not
frame pointers. I intend to go further and add an `llvm.localaddress()`
intrinsic that returns whatever register (EBP, ESI, ESP, RBX) is being
used to address locals, which should not be confused with the frame
pointer.

Naming suggestions at this point are welcome, I'm happy to re-run sed.

Chandler Carruth c3f49eb451 [PM/AA] Hoist the AliasResult enum out of the AliasAnalysis class.
This will allow classes to implement the AA interface without deriving
from the class or referencing an internal enum of some other class as
their return types.

Also, to a pretty fundamental extent, concepts such as 'NoAlias',
'MayAlias', and 'MustAlias' are first class concepts in LLVM and we
aren't saving anything by scoping them heavily.

My mild preference would have been to use a scoped enum, but that
feature is essentially completely broken AFAICT. I'm extremely
disappointed. For example, we cannot through any reasonable[1] means
construct an enum class (or analog) which has scoped names but converts
to a boolean in order to test for the possibility of aliasing.

[1]: Richard Smith came up with a "solution", but it requires class
templates, and lots of boilerplate setting up the enumeration multiple
times. Something like Boost.PP could potentially bundle this up, but
even that would be quite painful and it doesn't seem realistically worth
it. The enum class solution would probably work without the need for
a bool conversion.

David Majnemer 7fddeccb8b Move the personality function from LandingPadInst to Function
The personality routine currently lives in the LandingPadInst.

This isn't desirable because:
- All LandingPadInsts in the same function must have the same
  personality routine.  This means that each LandingPadInst beyond the
  first has an operand which produces no additional information.

- There is ongoing work to introduce EH IR constructs other than
  LandingPadInst.  Moving the personality routine off of any one
  particular Instruction and onto the parent function seems a lot better
  than have N different places a personality function can sneak onto an
  exceptional function.

Peter Collingbourne 82437bf7a5 Protection against stack-based memory corruption errors using SafeStack
This patch adds the safe stack instrumentation pass to LLVM, which separates
the program stack into a safe stack, which stores return addresses, register
spills, and local variables that are statically verified to be accessed
in a safe way, and the unsafe stack, which stores everything else. Such
separation makes it much harder for an attacker to corrupt objects on the
safe stack, including function pointers stored in spilled registers and
return addresses. You can find more information about the safe stack, as
well as other parts of or control-flow hijack protection technique in our
OSDI paper on code-pointer integrity (http://dslab.epfl.ch/pubs/cpi.pdf)
and our project website (http://levee.epfl.ch).

The overhead of our implementation of the safe stack is very close to zero
(0.01% on the Phoronix benchmarks). This is lower than the overhead of
stack cookies, which are supported by LLVM and are commonly used today,
yet the security guarantees of the safe stack are strictly stronger than
stack cookies. In some cases, the safe stack improves performance due to
better cache locality.

Our current implementation of the safe stack is stable and robust, we
used it to recompile multiple projects on Linux including Chromium, and
we also recompiled the entire FreeBSD user-space system and more than 100
packages. We ran unit tests on the FreeBSD system and many of the packages
and observed no errors caused by the safe stack. The safe stack is also fully
binary compatible with non-instrumented code and can be applied to parts of
a program selectively.

This patch is our implementation of the safe stack on top of LLVM. The
patches make the following changes:

- Add the safestack function attribute, similar to the ssp, sspstrong and
  sspreq attributes.

- Add the SafeStack instrumentation pass that applies the safe stack to all
  functions that have the safestack attribute. This pass moves all unsafe local
  variables to the unsafe stack with a separate stack pointer, whereas all
  safe variables remain on the regular stack that is managed by LLVM as usual.

- Invoke the pass as the last stage before code generation (at the same time
  the existing cookie-based stack protector pass is invoked).

- Add unit tests for the safe stack.

Original patch by Volodymyr Kuznetsov and others at the Dependable Systems
Lab at EPFL; updates and upstreaming by myself.

Sanjoy Das c63244daa1 [CodeGen] Introduce a FAULTING_LOAD_OP pseudo-op.
Summary:
This instruction encodes a loading operation that may fault, and a label
to branch to if the load page-faults.  The locations of potentially
faulting loads and their "handler" destinations are recorded in a
FaultMap section, meant to be consumed by LLVM's clients.

Nothing generates FAULTING_LOAD_OP instructions yet, but they will be
used in a future change.

The documentation (FaultMaps.rst) needs improvement and I will update
this diff with a more expanded version shortly.
