X86FrameLowering::adjustForHiPEPrologue() contains a hard-coded offset
into an Erlang Runtime System-internal data structure (the PCB). As the
layout of this data structure is prone to change, this poses problems
for maintaining compatibility.
To address this problem, the compiler can produce this information as
module-level named metadata. For example (where P_NSP_LIMIT is the
offending offset):
!hipe.literals = !{ !2, !3, !4 }
!2 = !{ !"P_NSP_LIMIT", i32 152 }
!3 = !{ !"X86_LEAF_WORDS", i32 24 }
!4 = !{ !"AMD64_LEAF_WORDS", i32 24 }

Essentially the same as the GEP change in r230786.
A similar migration script can be used to update test cases, though a few more
test case improvements/changes were required this time around: (r229269-r229278)
import fileinput
import sys
import re
pat = re.compile(r"((?:=|:|^)\s*load (?:atomic )?(?:volatile )?(.*?))(| addrspace\(\d+\) *)\*($| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$)")
for line in sys.stdin:
sys.stdout.write(re.sub(pat, r"\1, \2\3*\4", line))

This changes the SelectionDAG scheduling preference to source
order. Soon, the SelectionDAG scheduler can be bypassed saving
a nice chunk of compile time.
Performance differences that result from this change are often a
consequence of register coalescing. The register coalescer is far from
perfect. Bugs can be filed for deficiencies.
On x86 SandyBridge/Haswell, the source order schedule is often
preserved, particularly for small blocks.
Register pressure is generally improved over the SD scheduler's ILP
mode. However, we are still able to handle large blocks that require
latency hiding, unlike the SD scheduler's BURR mode. MI scheduler also
attempts to discover the critical path in single-block loops and
adjust heuristics accordingly.
The MI scheduler relies on the new machine model. This is currently
unimplemented for AVX, so we may not be generating the best code yet.
Unit tests are updated so they don't depend on SD scheduling heuristics.
