This adds a second implementation of the AArch64 architecture to LLVM,
accessible in parallel via the "arm64" triple. The plan over the
coming weeks & months is to merge the two into a single backend,
during which time thorough code review should naturally occur.
Everything will be easier with the target in-tree though, hence this
commit.

This reverts commit r204912, and follow-up commit r204948.
This introduced a performance regression, and the fix is not completely
clear yet.
llvm-svn: 205010
Fixes a miscompile introduced in r204912. It would miscompile code like
(unsigned)(a + -49) <= 5U. The transform would turn this into
(unsigned)a < 55U, which would return true for values in [0, 49], when
it should not.

Summary:
Previously the code didn't check if the before and after types for the
store were pointers to different address spaces. This resulted in
instcombine using a bitcast to convert between pointers to different
address spaces, causing an assertion due to the invalid cast.
It is not be appropriate to use addrspacecast this case because it is
not guaranteed to be a no-op cast. Instead bail out and do not do the
transformation.

On ELF and COFF an alias is just another name for a position in the file.
There is no way to refer to a position in another file, so an alias to
undefined is meaningless.
MachO currently doesn't support aliases. The spec has a N_INDR, which when
implemented will have a different set of restrictions. Adding support for
it shouldn't be harder than any other IR extension.
For now, having the IR represent what is actually possible with current
tools makes it easier to fix the design of GlobalAlias.

optimize a call to a llvm intrinsic to something that invovles a call to a C
library call, make sure it sets the right calling convention on the call.
e.g.
extern double pow(double, double);
double t(double x) {
return pow(10, x);
}
Compiles to something like this for AAPCS-VFP:
define arm_aapcs_vfpcc double @t(double %x) #0 {
entry:
%0 = call double @llvm.pow.f64(double 1.000000e+01, double %x)
ret double %0
}
declare double @llvm.pow.f64(double, double) #1
Simplify libcall (part of instcombine) will turn the above into:
define arm_aapcs_vfpcc double @t(double %x) #0 {
entry:
%__exp10 = call double @__exp10(double %x) #1
ret double %__exp10
}
declare double @__exp10(double)
The pre-instcombine code works because calls to LLVM builtins are special.
Instruction selection will chose the right calling convention for the call.
However, the code after instcombine is wrong. The call to __exp10 will use
the C calling convention.
I can think of 3 options to fix this.
1. Make "C" calling convention just work since the target should know what CC
is being used.
This doesn't work because each function can use different CC with the "pcs"
attribute.
2. Have Clang add the right CC keyword on the calls to LLVM builtin.
This will work but it doesn't match the LLVM IR specification which states
these are "Standard C Library Intrinsics".
3. Fix simplify libcall so the resulting calls to the C routines will have the
proper CC keyword. e.g.
%__exp10 = call arm_aapcs_vfpcc double @__exp10(double %x) #1
This works and is the solution I implemented here.
Both solutions #2 and #3 would work. After carefully considering the pros and
cons, I decided to implement #3 for the following reasons.
1. It doesn't change the "spec" of the intrinsics.
2. It's a self-contained fix.
There are a couple of potential downsides.
1. There could be other places in the optimizer that is broken in the same way
that's not addressed by this.
2. There could be other calling conventions that need to be propagated by
simplify-libcall that's not handled.
But for now, this is the fix that I'm most comfortable with.

Sequences of insertelement/extractelements are sometimes used to build
vectorsr; this code tries to put them back together into shuffles, but
could only produce a completely uniform shuffle types (<N x T> from two
<N x T> sources).
This should allow shuffles with different numbers of elements on the
input and output sides as well.

are operations that do not access memory but may be sensitive
to floating-point environment changes. LLVM does not attempt
to model FP environment changes, so this was unnecessarily conservative
and was getting on the way of some optimizations, in particular
SLP vectorization.

logical operations on the i1's driving them. This is a bad idea for every
target I can think of (confirmed with micro tests on all of: x86-64, ARM,
AArch64, Mips, and PowerPC) because it forces the i1 to be materialized into
a general purpose register, whereas consuming it directly into a select generally
allows it to exist only transiently in a predicate or flags register.
Chandler ran a set of performance tests with this change, and reported no
measurable change on x86-64.

Add the missing transformation strchr(p, 0) -> p + strlen(p) to SimplifyLibCalls
and remove the ToDo comment.

Summary:
I searched Transforms/ and Analysis/ for 'ByVal' and updated those call
sites to check for inalloca if appropriate.
I added tests for any change that would allow an optimization to fire on
inalloca.

This logic hadn't been updated to handle FastMathFlags, and it took me a while to detect it because it doesn't show up in a simple search for CreateFAdd.

widespread glibc bugs.
The glibc implementation of exp10 has a very serious precision bug in
version 2.15 (and older versions). This is still very widely used (the
current Ubuntu LTS for example uses it) and so it isn't reasonable to
make transforms that produce these functions. This fixes many
miscompiles introduced when we started transforming pow(10.0, ...) into
exp10, and it may have fixed other latent miscompiles where exp10
provided sufficient precision but exp10f did not.
This is all really horrible. The primary bug has been fixed for over
a year and glibc 2.18 works correctly for the test cases I have, but it
will be 2017 before the LTS using 2.15 is no longer supported by Ubuntu
(and thus reasonable for folks to be relying on). =[ We're either going
to need to live without these optimizations, or find a way to switch
behavior more dynamically than using simply the fact that the OS is
"Linux".
To make matters worse, there appears to be significant testing and
fixing of numerous other bugs in the exp10 family of functions right now
in glibc. While those haven't been causing problems I've seen in the
wild, it gives me concerns that we may need to wait until an even later
release of glibc before we can reliably transform code into exp10.
