Make tail duplication of indirect branches much more aggressive (for targets
that indicate that it is profitable), based on further experience with
this transformation. I compiled 3 large applications with and without
this more aggressive tail duplication and measured minimal changes in code
size. ("size" on Darwin seems to round the text size up to the nearest
page boundary, so I can only say that any code size increase was less than
one 4k page.) Radar 7421267.

than doing the same via constpool:
1. Load from constpool costs 3 cycles on A9, movt/movw pair - just 2.
2. Load from constpool might stall up to 300 cycles due to cache miss.
3. Movt/movw does not use load/store unit.
4. Less constpool entries => better compiler performance.
This is only enabled on ELF systems, since darwin does not have needed
relocations (yet).

constant pool ranges, as CPEIsInRange() makes conservative assumptions about
the potential alignment changes from branch adjustments. The verification,
on the other hand, runs after those branch adjustments are made, so the

assembly can confuse things utterly, as it's assumed that instructions in
inline assembly are 4 bytes wide. For Thumb mode, that's often not true,
so the calculations for when alignment padding will be present get thrown off,
ultimately leading to out of range constant pool entry references. Making
more conservative assumptions that padding may be necessary when inline asm
is present avoids this situation.

MachineRelocations, "stub" always refers to a far-call stub or a
load-a-faraway-global stub, so this patch adds "Far" to the term. (Other stubs
are used for lazy compilation and dlsym address replacement.) The variable was
also inconsistent between the positive and negative sense, and the positive
sense ("NeedStub") was more demanding than is accurate (since a nearby-enough
function can be called directly even if the platform often requires a stub).
Since the negative sense causes double-negatives, I switched to
"MayNeedFarStub" globally.

use it to control tail merging when there is a tradeoff between performance
and code size. When there is only 1 instruction in the common tail, we have

optimization level is "Aggressive", i.e., "-O3". Radar 7338114.
Since the IfConversion pass invokes BranchFolding, it too needs to know

Regarding the FIXME comment: any information about sign and zero-extension

In the case where there are no good places to put constants and we fall back
upon inserting unconditional branches to make new blocks, allow all constant
pool references in range of those blocks to put constants there, even if that
means resetting the "high water marks" for those references. This will still
terminate because you can't keep splitting blocks forever, and in the bad
cases where we have to split blocks, it is important to avoid splitting more
than necessary.

When ARMConstantIslandPass cannot find any good locations (i.e., "water") to
place constants, it falls back to inserting unconditional branches to make a
place to put them. My recent change exposed a problem in this area. We may
sometimes append to the same block more than one unconditional branch. The
symptoms of this are that the generated assembly has a branch to an undefined
label and running llc with -debug will cause a seg fault.
This happens more easily since my change to prevent CPEs from moving from
lower to higher addresses as the algorithm iterates, but it could have
happened before. The end of the block may be in range for various constant
pool references, but the insertion point for new CPEs is not right at the end
of the block -- it is at the end of the CPEs that have already been placed
at the end of the block. The insertion point could be out of range. When
that happens, the fallback code will always append another unconditional
branch if the end of the block is in range.
The fix is to only append an unconditional branch if the block does not
already end with one. I also removed a check to see if the constant pool load
instruction is at the end of the block, since that is redundant with
checking if the end of the block is in-range.
There is more to be done here, but I think this fixes the immediate problem.

MultiSource/Benchmarks/MiBench/automotive-susan test. The failure has
since been masked by an unrelated change (just randomly), so I don't have
a testcase for this now. Radar 7291928.
The situation where this happened is that a constant pool entry (CPE) was
placed at a lower address than the load that referenced it. There were in
fact 2 CPEs placed at adjacent addresses and referenced by 2 loads that were
close together in the code. The distance from the loads to the CPEs was
right at the limit of what they could handle, so that only one of the CPEs
could be placed within range. On every iteration, the first CPE was found
to be out of range, causing a new CPE to be inserted. The second CPE had
been in range but the newly inserted entry pushed it too far away. Thus the
second CPE was also replaced by a new entry, which in turn pushed the first
CPE out of range. Etc.
Judging from some comments in the code, the initial implementation of this
pass did not support CPEs placed _before_ their references. In the case
where the CPE is placed at a higher address, the key to making the algorithm
terminate is that new CPEs are only inserted at the end of a group of adjacent
CPEs. This is implemented by removing a basic block from the "WaterList"
once it has been used, and then adding the newly inserted CPE block to the
list so that the next insertion will come after it. This avoids the ping-pong
effect where CPEs are repeatedly moved to the beginning of a group of
adjacent CPEs. This does not work when going backwards, however, because the
entries at the end of an adjacent group of CPEs are closer than the CPEs
earlier in the group.
To make this pass terminate, we need to maintain a property that changes can
only happen in some sort of monotonic fashion. The fix used here is to require
that the CPE for a particular constant pool load can only move to lower
addresses. This is a very simple change to the code and should not cause
any significant degradation in the results.

a virtual register to eliminate a frame index, it can return that register
and the constant stored there to PEI to track. When scavenging to allocate
for those registers, PEI then tracks the last-used register and value, and
if it is still available and matches the value for the next index, reuses
the existing value rather and removes the re-materialization instructions.
Fancier tracking and adjustment of scavenger allocations to keep more
values live for longer is possible, but not yet implemented and would likely
be better done via a different, less special-purpose, approach to the
problem.

to emit target-specific things at the beginning of the asm output. This
fixes a problem for PPC, where the text sections are not being kept together
as expected. The base class doInitialization code calls DW->BeginModule()
which emits a bunch of DWARF section directives. The PPC doInitialization
code then emits all the TEXT section directives, with the intention that they
will be kept together. But as I understand it, the Darwin assembler treats
the default TEXT section as a special case and moves it to the beginning of
the file, which means that all those DWARF sections are in the middle of
the text. With this change, the EmitStartOfAsmFile hook is called before
the DWARF section directives are emitted, so that all the PPC text section
directives come out right at the beginning of the file.
