Change the interface of CallLowering::lowerFormalArguments to accept
several virtual registers for each formal argument, instead of just one.
This is a follow-up to D46018.
CallLowering::lowerReturn was similarly refactored in D49660. lowerCall
will be refactored in the same way in follow-up patches.
With this change, we forward the virtual registers generated for
aggregates to CallLowering. Therefore, the target can decide itself
whether it wants to handle them as separate pieces or use one big
register. We also copy the pack/unpackRegs helpers to CallLowering to
facilitate this.
ARM and AArch64 have been updated to use the passed in virtual registers
directly, which means we no longer need to generate so many
merge/extract instructions.
AArch64 seems to have had a bug when lowering e.g. [1 x i8*], which was
put into a s64 instead of a p0. Added a test-case which illustrates the
problem more clearly (it crashes without this patch) and fixed the
existing test-case to expect p0.
AMDGPU has been updated to unpack into the virtual registers for
kernels. I think the other code paths fall back for aggregates, so this
should be NFC.
Mips doesn't support aggregates yet, so it's also NFC.
x86 seems to have code for dealing with aggregates, but I couldn't find
the tests for it, so I just added a fallback to DAGISel if we get more
than one virtual register for an argument.

Avoids using a plain unsigned for registers throughoug codegen.
Doesn't attempt to change every register use, just something a little
more than the set needed to build after changing the return type of
MachineOperand::getReg().

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

Summary: Support call ABI. For now only Linux C and X86_64_SysV calling conventions supported. Variadic function not supported.

A bit more painful than G_INSERT because it was more widely used, but this
should simplify the handling of extract operations in most locations.
llvm-svn: 297100
Summary:
Add basic functionality to support call lowering for X86.
Currently only supports functions which return void and take zero arguments.
Inspired by commit 286573.
