target machine from those that are only needed by codegen. The goal is to
sink the essential target description into MC layer so we can start building
MC based tools without needing to link in the entire codegen.
First step is to refactor TargetRegisterInfo. This patch added a base class
MCRegisterInfo which TargetRegisterInfo is derived from. Changed TableGen to
separate register description from the rest of the stuff.

of testing for its presence at cmake time.
This way the build automatically regenerates the makefiles when a svn
update brings in a new sublibrary.

Next time the build is broken due to wrong library dependencies, just
try building again (if you are on some Unix and are building all LLVM
targets) or ask someone to commit the regenerated LLVMLibDeps.cmake.

On Nehalem and newer CPUs there is a 2 cycle latency penalty on using a register
in a different domain than where it was defined. Some instructions have
equvivalents for different domains, like por/orps/orpd.
The SSEDomainFix pass tries to minimize the number of domain crossings by
changing between equvivalent opcodes where possible.
This is a work in progress, in particular the pass doesn't do anything yet. SSE
instructions are tagged with their execution domain in TableGen using the last
two bits of TSFlags. Note that not all instructions are tagged correctly. Life
just isn't that simple.
The SSE execution domain issue is very similar to the ARM NEON/VFP pipeline
issue handled by NEONMoveFixPass. This pass may become target independent to
handle both.

This is work in progress. So far, SSE execution domain tables are added to
X86InstrInfo, and a skeleton pass is enabled with -sse-domain-fix.

- Although it would be nice to allow this decoupling, the assembler needs to be able to reason about MCSymbolRefExprs in too many places to make this viable. We can use a target specific encoding of the variant if this becomes an issue.
- This patch also extends llvm-mc to support parsing of the modifiers, as opposed to lumping them in with the symbol.

incarnations), integrated into the MC framework.
The disassembler is table-driven, using a custom TableGen backend to
generate hierarchical tables optimized for fast decode. The disassembler
consumes MemoryObjects and produces arrays of MCInsts, adhering to the
abstract base class MCDisassembler (llvm/MC/MCDisassembler.h).
The disassembler is documented in detail in
- lib/Target/X86/Disassembler/X86Disassembler.cpp (disassembler runtime)
- utils/TableGen/DisassemblerEmitter.cpp (table emitter)
You can test the disassembler by running llvm-mc -disassemble for i386
or x86_64 targets. Please let me know if you encounter any problems
with it.

x87 virtual registers are used, to avoid doing any work in the
common case that no x87 code is needed.
