The indirect call sequence on PPC requires that the TOC base register be saved
prior to the indirect call and restored after the call since the indirect call
may branch to a global entry point in another DSO which will update the TOC
base. Over the last couple of years, we have improved this to:
- be able to hoist TOC saves from loops (with changes to MachineLICM)
- avoid multiple saves when one dominates the other[s]
However, it is still possible to have multiple TOC saves dynamically in the
execution path if there is no dominance relationship between them.
This patch moves the TOC save to the prologue when one of the TOC saves is in a
block that post-dominates entry (i.e. it cannot be avoided) or if it is in a
block that is hotter than entry.

Move the stdu instruction in the prologue and epilogue.
This should provide a small performance boost in functions that are able to do
this. I've kept this change rather conservative at the moment and functions
with frame pointers or base pointers will not try to move the stack pointer
update.

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.

Currently in llvm, CalleeSavedInfo can only assign a callee saved register to
stack frame index to be spilled in the prologue. We would like to enable
spilling gprs to vector registers. This patch adds the capability to spill to
other registers aside from just the stack. It also adds the changes for power9
to spill gprs to volatile vector registers when they are available.
This happens only for leaf functions when using the option
-ppc-enable-pe-vector-spills.

Summary:
The Signal Processing Engine (SPE) is found on NXP/Freescale e500v1,
e500v2, and several e200 cores. This adds support targeting the e500v2,
as this is more common than the e500v1, and is in SoCs still on the
market.
This patch is very intrusive because the SPE is binary incompatible with
the traditional FPU. After discussing with others, the cleanest
solution was to make both SPE and FPU features on top of a base PowerPC
subset, so all FPU instructions are now wrapped with HasFPU predicates.
Supported by this are:
* Code generation following the SPE ABI at the LLVM IR level (calling
conventions)
* Single- and Double-precision math at the level supported by the APU.
Still to do:
* Vector operations
* SPE intrinsics
As this changes the Callee-saved register list order, one test, which
tests the precise generated code, was updated to account for the new
register order.

The instruction sequence used to get the address of the PC into a GPR requires
that we clobber the link register. Doing so without having first saved it in
the prologue leaves the function unable to return. Currently, this sequence is
emitted into the entry block. To ensure the prologue is inserted before this
sequence, disable shrink-wrapping.
This fixes PR33547.

Original commit message:
This patch adds support for the coldcc calling convention for Power.
This changes the set of non-volatile registers. It includes a pass to stress
test the implementation by marking all static directly called functions with
the coldcc attribute through the option -enable-coldcc-stress-test. It also
includes an option, -ppc-enable-coldcc, to add the coldcc attribute to
functions which are cold at all call sites based on BlockFrequencyInfo when
the containing function does not call any non cold functions.

This patch makes the following changes to the schedule of instructions in the
prologue and epilogue.
The stack pointer update is moved down in the prologue so that the callee saves
do not have to wait for the update to happen.
Saving the lr is moved down in the prologue to hide the latency of the mflr.
The stack pointer is moved up in the epilogue so that restoring of the lr can
happen sooner.
The mtlr is moved up in the epilogue so that it is away form the blr at the end
of the epilogue. The latency of the mtlr can now be hidden by the loads of the
callee saved registers.
This commit is almost identical to this one: r322036 except that two warnings
that broke build bots have been fixed.

The liveness-tracking code assumes that the registers that were saved
in the function's prolog are live outside of the function. Specifically,
that registers that were saved are also live-on-exit from the function.
This isn't always the case as illustrated by the LR register on ARM.

When a function contains something, such as inline asm, which explicitly
clobbers the register used as the frame pointer, don't spill it twice. If we
need a frame pointer, it will be saved/restored in the prologue/epilogue code.
Explicitly spilling it again will reuse the same spill slot used by the
prologue/epilogue code, thus clobbering the saved value. The same applies
to the base-pointer or PIC-base register.
Partially fixes PR26856. Thanks to Ulrich for his analysis and the small
inline-asm reproducer.

Avoid implicit conversions from MachineInstrBundleIterator to
MachineInstr* in the PowerPC backend, mainly by preferring MachineInstr&
over MachineInstr* when a pointer isn't nullable and using range-based
for loops.
There was one piece of questionable code in PPCInstrInfo::AnalyzeBranch,
where a condition checked a pointer converted from an iterator for
nullptr. Since this case is impossible (moreover, the code above
guarantees that the iterator is valid), I removed the check when I
changed the pointer to a reference.
Despite that case, there should be no functionality change here.

In the ELFv2 ABI, we are not required to save all CR fields. If only one
nonvolatile CR field is clobbered, use mfocrf instead of mfcr to
selectively save the field, because mfocrf has short latency compares to
mfcr.

This will become necessary in a subsequent change to make this method
merge adjacent stack adjustments, i.e. it might erase the previous
and/or next instruction.
It also greatly simplifies the calls to this function from Prolog-
EpilogInserter. Previously, that had a bunch of logic to resume iteration
after the call; now it just continues with the returned iterator.
Note that this changes the behaviour of PEI a little. Previously,
it attempted to re-visit the new instruction created by
eliminateCallFramePseudoInstr(). That code was added in r36625,
but I can't see any reason for it: the new instructions will obviously
not be pseudo instructions, they will not have FrameIndex operands,
and we have already accounted for the stack adjustment.
