misched is disabled by default. With -enable-misched, these heuristics
balance the schedule to simultaneously avoid saturating processor
resources, expose ILP, and minimize register pressure. I've been
analyzing the performance of these heuristics on everything in the
llvm test suite in addition to a few other benchmarks. I would like
each heuristic check to be verified by a unit test, but I'm still
trying to figure out the best way to do that. The heuristics are still
in considerable flux, but as they are refined we should be rigorous
about unit testing the improvements.

to be extended to a full register. This is modeled in the IR by marking
the return value (or argument) with a signext or zeroext attribute.
However, while these attributes are respected for function arguments,
they are currently ignored for function return values by the PowerPC
back-end. This patch updates PPCCallingConv.td to ask for the promotion
to i64, and fixes LowerReturn and LowerCallResult to implement it.
The new test case verifies that both arguments and return values are
properly extended when passing them; and also that the optimizers
understand incoming argument and return values are in fact guaranteed
by the ABI to be extended.
The patch caused a spurious breakage in CodeGen/PowerPC/coalesce-ext.ll,
since the test case used a "ret" instruction to create a use of an i32
value at the end of the function (to set up data flow as required for
what the test is intended to test). Since there's now an implicit
promotion to i64, that data flow no longer works as expected. To fix
this, this patch now adds an extra "add" to ensure we have an appropriate
use of the i32 value.

The Z constraint specifies an r+r memory address, and the y modifier expands
to the "r, r" in the asm string. For this initial implementation, the base
register is forced to r0 (which has the special meaning of 0 for r+r addressing
on PowerPC) and the full address is taken in the second register. In the
future, this should be improved.

'nocapture' attribute.
The nocapture attribute only specifies that no copies are made that
outlive the function. This isn't the same as there being no copies at all.
This fixes PR14045.

The new analysis is not yet ready for prime time. It has a *critical*
flawed assumption, and some troubling shortages of testing. Until it's
been hammered into better shape, let's stick with the working code. This
should be easy to revert itself when the analysis is ready.
Fixes PR14241, a miscompile of any memcpy-able loop which uses a pointer
as the induction mechanism. If you have been seeing miscompiles in this
revision range, you really want to test with this backed out. The
results of this miscompile are a bit subtle as they can lead to
downstream passes concluding things are impossible which are in fact
possible.
Thanks to David Blaikie for the majority of the reduction of this
miscompile. I'll be checking in the test case in a non-revert commit.
Revesions reverted here:
r167045: LoopIdiom: Fix a serious missed optimization: we only turned
top-level loops into memmove.
r166877: LoopIdiom: Add checks to avoid turning memmove into an infinite
loop.
r166875: LoopIdiom: Recognize memmove loops.
r166874: LoopIdiom: Replace custom dependence analysis with
DependenceAnalysis.

When target cost information is available, compute explicit costs of inserting and
extracting values from vectors. At this point, all costs are estimated using the
target information, and the chain-depth heuristic is not needed. As a result, it is now, by
default, disabled when using target costs.

getIntPtrType support for multiple address spaces via a pointer type,
and also introduced a crasher bug in the constant folder reported in
PR14233.
These commits also contained several problems that should really be
addressed before they are re-committed. I have avoided reverting various
cleanups to the DataLayout APIs that are reasonable to have moving
forward in order to reduce the amount of churn, and minimize the number
of commits that were reverted. I've also manually updated merge
conflicts and manually arranged for the getIntPtrType function to stay
in DataLayout and to be defined in a plausible way after this revert.
Thanks to Duncan for working through this exact strategy with me, and
Nick Lewycky for tracking down the really annoying crasher this
triggered. (Test case to follow in its own commit.)
After discussing with Duncan extensively, and based on a note from
Micah, I'm going to continue to back out some more of the more
problematic patches in this series in order to ensure we go into the
LLVM 3.2 branch with a reasonable story here. I'll send a note to
llvmdev explaining what's going on and why.
Summary of reverted revisions:
r166634: Fix a compiler warning with an unused variable.
r166607: Add some cleanup to the DataLayout changes requested by
Chandler.
r166596: Revert "Back out r166591, not sure why this made it through
since I cancelled the command. Bleh, sorry about this!
r166591: Delete a directory that wasn't supposed to be checked in yet.
r166578: Add in support for getIntPtrType to get the pointer type based
on the address space.

The adc/sbb optimization is to able to convert following expression
into a single adc/sbb instruction:
(ult) ... = x + 1 // where the ult is unsigned-less-than comparison
(ult) ... = x - 1
This change is to flip the "x >u y" (i.e. ugt comparison) in order
to expose the adc/sbb opportunity.
