Ehsan Amiri a538b0f023 Adding -verify-machineinstrs option to PowerPC tests
Currently we have a number of tests that fail with -verify-machineinstrs.
To detect this cases earlier we add the option to the testcases with the
exception of tests that will currently fail with this option. PR 27456 keeps
track of this failures.

No code review, as discussed with Hal Finkel.

Ulrich Weigand 46ff7ec317 [PowerPC] Fix large code model with the ELFv2 ABI
The global entry point prologue currently assumes that the TOC
associated with a function is less than 2GB away from the function
entry point.  This is always true when using the medium or small
code model, but may not be the case when using the large code model.

This patch adds a new variant of the ELFv2 global entry point prologue
that lifts the 2GB restriction when building with -mcmodel=large.
This works by emitting a quadword containing the distance from the
function entry point to its associated TOC immediately before the
entry point, and then using a prologue like:

ld r2,-8(r12)
add r2,r2,r12

Since creation of the entry point prologue is now split across two
separate routines (PPCLinuxAsmPrinter::EmitFunctionEntryLabel emits
the data word, PPCLinuxAsmPrinter::EmitFunctionBodyStart the prolog
code), I've switched to using named labels instead of just temporaries
to indicate the locations of the global and local entry points and the
new TOC offset data word.

These names are provided by new routines in PPCFunctionInfo modeled
after the existing PPCFunctionInfo::getPICOffsetSymbol.

Note that a corresponding change was committed to GCC here:

Rafael Espindola 86bd6a1202 Use the generic Lfunc_begin label on ppc.
This removes yet another custom label to mark the start of a function.

David Blaikie a79ac14fa6 [opaque pointer type] Add textual IR support for explicit type parameter to load instruction
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))

Bill Schmidt 279cabb450 [PowerPC] Reset the baseline for ppc64le to be equivalent to pwr8
Test by Nemanja Ivanovic.

Since ppc64le implies POWER8 as a minimum, it makes sense that the
same features are included. Since the pwr8 processor model will likely
be getting new features until the implementation is complete, I
created a new list to add these updates to. This will include them in
both pwr8 and ppc64le.

Furthermore, it seems that it would make sense to compose the feature
lists for other processor models (pwr3 and up). Per discussion in the
review, I will make this change in a subsequent patch.

In order to test the changes, I've added an additional run step to
test cases that specify -march=ppc64le -mcpu=pwr8 to omit the -mcpu
option. Since the feature lists are the same, the behaviour should be
unchanged.

Ulrich Weigand aa0ac4f11c [PowerPC] ELFv2 function call changes
This patch builds upon the two preceding MC changes to implement the
basic ELFv2 function call convention.  In the ELFv1 ABI, a "function
descriptor" was associated with every function, pointing to both the
entry address and the related TOC base (and a static chain pointer
for nested functions).  Function pointers would actually refer to that
descriptor, and the indirect call sequence needed to load up both entry
address and TOC base.

In the ELFv2 ABI, there are no more function descriptors, and function
pointers simply refer to the (global) entry point of the function code.
Indirect function calls simply branch to that address, after loading it
up into r12 (as required by the ABI rules for a global entry point).
Direct function calls continue to just do a "bl" to the target symbol;
this will be resolved by the linker to the local entry point of the
target function if it is local, and to a PLT stub if it is global.
That PLT stub would then load the (global) entry point address of the
final target into r12 and branch to it.  Note that when performing a
local function call, r2 must be set up to point to the current TOC
base: if the target ends up local, the ABI requires that its local
entry point is called with r2 set up; if the target ends up global,
the PLT stub requires that r2 is set up.

This patch implements all LLVM changes to implement that scheme:
- No longer create a function descriptor when emitting a function
  definition (in EmitFunctionEntryLabel)
- Emit two entry points *if* the function needs the TOC base (r2)
  anywhere (this is done EmitFunctionBodyStart; note that this cannot
  be done in EmitFunctionBodyStart because the global entry point
  prologue code must be *part* of the function as covered by debug info).
- In order to make use tracking of r2 (as needed above) work correctly,
  mark direct function calls as implicitly using r2.
- Implement the ELFv2 indirect function call sequence (no function
  descriptors; load target address into r12).
- When creating an ELFv2 object file, emit the .abiversion 2 directive
  to tell the linker to create the appropriate version of PLT stubs.
