Rafael Espindola f6474d2834 Make R600 non-experimental.
The r600 backend has been in tree for some time now. Marking it as
non-experimental to avoid accidental breakage.

Sean Silva 8ca1178f45 LangRef.rst: Clarify how basic blocks without named label are handled.
Describe that they are assigned numbered label using the same counter
as for unnamed temporaries.

Based on http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=16043 and mailing list
discussion.

Alexander Kornienko 72a196a159 Better output for long help strings for command-line options.
Summary:
This patch allows using \n inside long help strings for command-line
options, so that all lines are equally indented. This is not a perfect solution,
as we don't (and probably don't want to) know about terminal width, but it
allows to format long help strings somehow readable without manually padding
them with spaces. A motivating example is -help output from clang-format (source
code in tools/clang-format/ClangFormat.cpp, see cl options offset, length,
style, and dump-config).

Nico Rieck 1da4529b15 MC: Support COFF image-relative MCSymbolRefs
Add support for the COFF relocation types IMAGE_REL_I386_DIR32NB and
IMAGE_REL_AMD64_ADDR32NB for 32- and 64-bit respectively. These are
similar to normal 4-byte relocations except that they do not include
the base address of the image.

Image-relative relocations are used for debug information (32-bit) and
SEH unwind tables (64-bit).

A new MCSymbolRef variant called 'VK_COFF_IMGREL32' is introduced to
specify such relocations. For AT&T assembly, this variant can be accessed
using the symbol suffix '@imgrel'.

Sean Silva c9fbd23621 [docs] The STL "binary search" has a non-obvious name.
std::lower_bound is the canonical "binary search" in the STL
(std::binary_search generally is not what you want). The name actually
makes a lot of sense (and also has a beautiful symmetry with the
std::upper_bound algorithm). The name is nonetheless non-obvious.

Also, remove mention of "radix search". It's not even clear how that
would work in the context of a sorted vector. AFAIK "radix search" only
makes sense when you have a trie-like data structure.

Jakob Stoklund Olesen 91a5848cab Allow TableGen DAG arguments to be just a name.
DAG arguments can optionally be named:

  (dag node, node:$name)

With this change, the node is also optional:

  (dag node, node:$name, $name)

The missing node is treated as an UnsetInit, so the above is equivalent
to:

  (dag node, node:$name, ?:$name)

This syntax is useful in output patterns where we currently require the
types of variables to be repeated:

  def : Pat<(subc i32:$b, i32:$c), (SUBCCrr i32:$b, i32:$c)>;

This is preferable:

  def : Pat<(subc i32:$b, i32:$c), (SUBCCrr $b, $c)>;

Ulrich Weigand e618abd6e0 Extend TableGen instruction selection matcher to improve handling
of complex instruction operands (e.g. address modes).

Currently, if a Pat pattern creates an instruction that has a complex
operand (i.e. one that consists of multiple sub-operands at the MI
level), this operand must match a ComplexPattern DAG pattern with the
correct number of output operands.

This commit extends TableGen to alternatively allow match a complex
operands against multiple separate operands at the DAG level.

This allows using Pat patterns to match pre-increment nodes like
pre_store (which must have separate operands at the DAG level) onto
an instruction pattern that uses a multi-operand memory operand,
like the following example on PowerPC (will be committed as a
follow-on patch):

  def STWU  : DForm_1<37, (outs ptr_rc:$ea_res), (ins GPRC:$rS, memri:$dst),
                    "stwu $rS, $dst", LdStStoreUpd, []>,
                    RegConstraint<"$dst.reg = $ea_res">, NoEncode<"$ea_res">;

  def : Pat<(pre_store GPRC:$rS, ptr_rc:$ptrreg, iaddroff:$ptroff),
            (STWU GPRC:$rS, iaddroff:$ptroff, ptr_rc:$ptrreg)>;

Here, the pair of "ptroff" and "ptrreg" operands is matched onto the
complex operand "dst" of class "memri" in the "STWU" instruction.

Approved by Jakob Stoklund Olesen.

- rename address_safety => sanitize_address (the enum value is the same, so we preserve binary compatibility with old bitcode)
- rename thread_safety => sanitize_thread
- rename no_uninitialized_checks -> sanitize_memory

CLANG: 
- add __attribute__((no_sanitize_address)) as a synonym for __attribute__((no_address_safety_analysis))
- add __attribute__((no_sanitize_thread))
- add __attribute__((no_sanitize_memory))

for S in address thread memory
If -fsanitize=S is present and __attribute__((no_sanitize_S)) is not
set llvm attribute sanitize_S

Bill Wendling 63b8819445 Initial submission for the attribute group feature.
Attribute groups are of the form:

  #0 = attributes { noinline "no-sse" "cpu"="cortex-a8" alignstack=4 }

Target-dependent attributes are represented as strings. Attributes can have
optional values associated with them. E.g., the "cpu" attribute has the value
"cortex-a8".

Target-independent attributes are listed as enums inside the attribute classes.

Multiple attribute groups can be referenced by the same object. In that case,
the attributes are merged together.

Makefile.config.

This is implied at the bottom of the help text of configure (besides
CC/CXX/LDFLAGS, already passed to Makefile.config).

For backward compatibility, the values of CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS defaults
to empty, overriding the default values provided by autoconf (for
example, '-g -O2' when CC=gcc').

$(CPP) is not used by our makefiles. Therefore, the value of CPP is
not passed to Makefile.config, despite beeing mentioned by 'configure

Specifically, the patch explains how LLVM optimizes global initializers
by assumign that global variables defined within the module are not
modified from their initial values before the start of the global
initializer.

My "excuse" for not refactoring the grammar here is to not diverge too

taking on the quest of majorly refactoring TGParser.cpp at the moment.

One benefit of doing this is that Ideas for refactoring and clarifying
the grammar in this document should translate almost immediately to
beneficial refactorings that can be made to TGParser.cpp.

Tim Northover e0e3aefdd3 Add AArch64 as an experimental target.
This patch adds support for AArch64 (ARM's 64-bit architecture) to
LLVM in the "experimental" category. Currently, it won't be built
unless requested explicitly.

This initial commit should have support for:
    + Assembly of all scalar (i.e. non-NEON, non-Crypto) instructions
      (except the late addition CRC instructions).
    + CodeGen features required for C++03 and C99.
    + Compilation for the "small" memory model: code+static data <
      4GB.
    + Absolute and position-independent code.
    + GNU-style (i.e. "__thread") TLS.
    + Debugging information.

The principal omission, currently, is performance tuning.

This patch excludes the NEON support also reviewed due to an outbreak of
batshit insanity in our legal department. That will be committed soon bringing
the changes to precisely what has been approved.

Further reviews would be gratefully received.

llvm-svn: 174007
2013-01-31 00:49:39 +00:00
Andrew Trick 89fc5a6627 ...in light of recent activity related to llvm.memcpy flags. I want to
prevent an llvm developer from mistakenly thinking that just because the
intrinsic has volatile flags that volatile operations can be converted
to or folded into them.

Platforms may rely on volatile loads and stores of natively supported
data width to be executed as single instruction. When compiling
C, this expectation likely holds for l-values of volatile primitive
types with native hardware support, but not necessarily for aggregate
types. The frontend upholds these expectations, which are not
specified in the IR.

Bill Wendling 7c8f96a91b Add the heuristic to differentiate SSPStrong from SSPRequired.
The requirements of the strong heuristic are:

* A Protector is required for functions which contain an array, regardless of
  type or length.

* A Protector is required for functions which contain a structure/union which
  contains an array, regardless of type or length.  Note, there is no limit to
  the depth of nesting.

* A protector is required when the address of a local variable (i.e., stack
  based variable) is exposed. (E.g., such as through a local whose address is
  taken as part of the RHS of an assignment or a local whose address is taken as
  part of a function argument.)

llvm-svn: 173231
2013-01-23 06:43:53 +00:00
Bill Wendling d154e283f2 Add the IR attribute 'sspstrong'.
SSPStrong applies a heuristic to insert stack protectors in these situations:

* A Protector is required for functions which contain an array, regardless of
  type or length.

* A Protector is required for functions which contain a structure/union which
  contains an array, regardless of type or length.  Note, there is no limit to
  the depth of nesting.

* A protector is required when the address of a local variable (i.e., stack
  based variable) is exposed. (E.g., such as through a local whose address is
  taken as part of the RHS of an assignment or a local whose address is taken as
  part of a function argument.)

This patch implements the SSPString attribute to be equivalent to
SSPRequired. This will change in a subsequent patch.

Sean Silva 1eab30dc17 docs: Nuke the old release notes.
This change also removes a bunch of boilerplate and stuffing which made
it unnecessarily hard to navigate and see the comparatively miniscule
actual content that was added to this document during the 3.2
development period (or maybe even sticking around from earlier
releases...).

The new organization (a flat list) optimizes for making it easy for
people who know about changes to add them to the document.  It's
completely trivial for anyone with basic knowledge of LLVM to come in
later (such as when preparing for the actual release) and cluster any
changes into logical groups. However, I have left some comments
indicating how to add larger descriptions, if someone is feeling
adventurous ;)

Hopefully this organization will highlight how little effort is being
put into producing accurate, high-quality release notes, prompting a
corresponding improvement for the 3.3 release.

I have preserved the changes to this document that are not present
in the 3.2 release notes. There were only two... I'm pretty sure we've
been busier than that... (version control shows +213347/-173656 raw
lines just in the LLVM repo since the 3.2 release).
