VSX is an ISA extension supported on the POWER7 and later cores that enhances
floating-point vector and scalar capabilities. Among other things, this adds
<2 x double> support and generally helps to reduce register pressure.
The interesting part of this ISA feature is the register configuration: there
are 64 new 128-bit vector registers, the 32 of which are super-registers of the
existing 32 scalar floating-point registers, and the second 32 of which overlap
with the 32 Altivec vector registers. This makes things like vector insertion
and extraction tricky: this can be free but only if we force a restriction to
the right register subclass when needed. A new "minipass" PPCVSXCopy takes care
of this (although it could do a more-optimal job of it; see the comment about
unnecessary copies below).
Please note that, currently, VSX is not enabled by default when targeting
anything because it is not yet ready for that. The assembler and disassembler
are fully implemented and tested. However:
- CodeGen support causes miscompiles; test-suite runtime failures:
MultiSource/Benchmarks/FreeBench/distray/distray
MultiSource/Benchmarks/McCat/08-main/main
MultiSource/Benchmarks/Olden/voronoi/voronoi
MultiSource/Benchmarks/mafft/pairlocalalign
MultiSource/Benchmarks/tramp3d-v4/tramp3d-v4
SingleSource/Benchmarks/CoyoteBench/almabench
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc/matmul_f64_4x4
- The lowering currently falls back to using Altivec instructions far more
than it should. Worse, there are some things that are scalarized through the
stack that shouldn't be.
- A lot of unnecessary copies make it past the optimizers, and this needs to
be fixed.
- Many more regression tests are needed.
Normally, I'd fix these things prior to committing, but there are some
students and other contributors who would like to work this, and so it makes
sense to move this development process upstream where it can be subject to the
regular code-review procedures.

Before this patch any program that wanted to know the final symbol name of a
GlobalValue had to link with Target.
This patch implements a compromise solution where the mangler uses DataLayout.
This way, any tool that already links with Target (llc, clang) gets the exact
behavior as before and new IR files can be mangled without linking with Target.
With this patch the mangler is constructed with just a DataLayout and DataLayout
is extended to include the information the Mangler needs.

This patch fixes an old FIXME by creating a MCTargetStreamer interface

Large code model on PPC64 requires creating and referencing TOC entries when
using the addis/ld form of addressing. This was not being done in all cases.
The changes in this patch to PPCAsmPrinter::EmitInstruction() fix this. Two
test cases are also modified to reflect this requirement.
Fast-isel was not creating correct code for loading floating-point constants
using large code model. This also requires the addis/ld form of addressing.
Previously we were using the addis/lfd shortcut which is only applicable to
medium code model. One test case is modified to reflect this requirement.
llvm-svn: 190882
Yet another chunk of fast-isel code. This one handles various

This patch provides basic support for powerpc64le as an LLVM target.
However, use of this target will not actually generate little-endian
code. Instead, use of the target will cause the correct little-endian
built-in defines to be generated, so that code that tests for
__LITTLE_ENDIAN__, for example, will be correctly parsed for
syntax-only testing. Code generation will otherwise be the same as
powerpc64 (big-endian), for now.
The patch leaves open the possibility of creating a little-endian
PowerPC64 back end, but there is no immediate intent to create such a
thing.
The LLVM portions of this patch simply add ppc64le coverage everywhere
that ppc64 coverage currently exists. There is nothing of any import
worth testing until such time as little-endian code generation is
implemented. In the corresponding Clang patch, there is a new test
case variant to ensure that correct built-in defines for little-endian
code are generated.

This was unfortunately incorrect, there is is fact another,
serious drawback to using the default VK_TLSLD/VK_TLSGD
variant kinds: using these causes ELFObjectWriter::RelocNeedsGOT
to return true, which in turn causes the ELFObjectWriter to emit
an undefined reference to _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_.
This is a problem on powerpc64, because it uses the TOC instead
of the GOT, and the linker does not provide _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_,
so the symbol remains undefined. This means shared libraries
using TLS built with the integrated assembler are currently
broken.
While the whole RelocNeedsGOT / _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ situation
probably ought to be properly fixed at some point, for now I'm
simply reverting the r185476 commit. Now this in turn exposes
the breakage of handling @tlsgd/@tlsld in the asm parser that
this check-in was originally intended to fix.
To avoid this regression, I'm also adding a different fix for
this problem: while common code now parses @tlsgd as VK_TLSGD,
a special hack in the asm parser translates this code to the
platform-specific VK_PPC_TLSGD that the back-end now expects.
While this is not really pretty, it's self-contained and
shouldn't hurt anything else for now. One the underlying
problem is fixed, this hack can be reverted again.
llvm-svn: 185945
A setting in MCAsmInfo defines the "assembler dialect" to use. This is used
by common code to choose between alternatives in a multi-alternative GNU
inline asm statement like the following:
__asm__ ("{sfe|subfe} %0,%1,%2" : "=r" (out) : "r" (in1), "r" (in2));
The meaning of these dialects is platform specific, and GCC defines those
for PowerPC to use dialect 0 for old-style (POWER) mnemonics and 1 for
new-style (PowerPC) mnemonics, like in the example above.
To be compatible with inline asm used with GCC, LLVM ought to do the same.
Specifically, this means we should always use assembler dialect 1 since
old-style mnemonics really aren't supported on any current platform.
However, the current LLVM back-end uses:
AssemblerDialect = 1; // New-Style mnemonics.
in PPCMCAsmInfoDarwin, and
AssemblerDialect = 0; // Old-Style mnemonics.
in PPCLinuxMCAsmInfo.
The Linux setting really isn't correct, we should be using new-style
mnemonics everywhere. This is changed by this commit.
Unfortunately, the setting of this variable is overloaded in the back-end
to decide whether or not we are on a Darwin target. This is done in
PPCInstPrinter (the "SyntaxVariant" is initialized from the MCAsmInfo
AssemblerDialect setting), and also in PPCMCExpr. Setting AssemblerDialect
to 1 for both Darwin and Linux no longer allows us to make this distinction.
Instead, this patch uses the MCSubtargetInfo passed to createPPCMCInstPrinter
to distinguish Darwin targets, and ignores the SyntaxVariant parameter.
As to PPCMCExpr, this patch adds an explicit isDarwin argument that needs
to be passed in by the caller when creating a target MCExpr. (To do so
this patch implicitly also reverts commit 184441.)
llvm-svn: 185858
Just as with mfocrf, it is also preferable to use mtocrf instead of
mtcrf when only a single CR register is to be written.
Current code however always emits mtcrf. This probably does not matter
when using an external assembler, since the GNU assembler will in fact
automatically replace mtcrf with mtocrf when possible. It does create
inefficient code with the integrated assembler, however.
To fix this, this patch adds MTOCRF/MTOCRF8 instruction patterns and
uses those instead of MTCRF/MTCRF8 everything. Just as done in the
MFOCRF patch committed as 185556, these patterns will be converted
back to MTCRF if MTOCRF is not available on the machine.
As a side effect, this allows to modify the MTCRF pattern to accept
the full range of mask operands for the benefit of the asm parser.
llvm-svn: 185561
When accessing just a single CR register, it is always preferable to
use mfocrf instead of mfcr, if the former is available on the CPU.
Current code makes that distinction in many, but not all places
where a single CR register value is retrieved. One missing
location is PPCRegisterInfo::lowerCRSpilling.
To fix this and make this simpler in the future, this patch changes
the bulk of the back-end to always assume mfocrf is available and
simply generate it when needed.
On machines that actually do not support mfocrf, the instruction
is replaced by mfcr at the very end, in EmitInstruction.
This has the additional benefit that we no longer need the
MFCRpseud hack, since before EmitInstruction we always have
a MFOCRF instruction pattern, which already models data flow
as required.
The patch also adds the MFOCRF8 version of the instruction,
which was missing so far.
Except for the PPCRegisterInfo::lowerCRSpilling case, no change
in generated code intended.
llvm-svn: 185556
As part of the global-dynamic and local-dynamic TLS sequences, we need
to use a special form of the call instruction:
bl __tls_get_addr(sym@tlsld)
bl __tls_get_addr(sym@tlsgd)
which generates two fixups. The current implementation of this causes
problems with recognizing this form in the asm parser. To fix this,
this patch reworks operand processing for this special form by using
a single operand to hold both __tls_get_addr and sym@tlsld and defining
a print method to output the above form, and an encoding method to
generate the two fixups.
As a side simplification, the patch replaces the two instruction
patterns BL8_NOP_TLSGD and BL8_NOP_TLSLD by a single BL8_NOP_TLS,
since the patterns already operate in an identical fashion (whether
we have a local-dynamic or global-dynamic symbol is already encoded
in the symbol modifier).
No change in code generation intended.
llvm-svn: 185477
The PowerPC-specific modifiers VK_PPC_TLSGD and VK_PPC_TLSLD
correspond exactly to the generic modifiers VK_TLSGD and VK_TLSLD.
This causes some confusion with the asm parser, since VK_PPC_TLSGD
is output as @tlsgd, which is then read back in as VK_TLSGD.
To avoid this confusion, this patch removes the PowerPC-specific
modifiers and uses the generic modifiers throughout. (The only
drawback is that the generic modifiers are printed in upper case
while the usual convention on PowerPC is to use lower-case modifiers.
But this is just a cosmetic issue.)
llvm-svn: 185476
This is dead code since PIC16 was removed in 2010. The result was an odd mix,

This renames more VK_PPC_ enums, to make them more closely reflect

likewise renamed.

This is another minor cleanup; to bring enum names in line

When targeting the Darwin assembler, we need to generate markers ha16() and
lo16() to designate the high and low parts of a (symbolic) immediate. This
is necessary not just for plain symbols, but also for certain symbolic
expression, typically along the lines of ha16(A - B). The latter doesn't
work when simply using VariantKind flags on the symbol reference.
This is why the current back-end uses hacks (explicitly called out as such
via multiple FIXMEs) in the symbolLo/symbolHi print methods.
This patch uses target-defined MCExpr codes to represent the Darwin
ha16/lo16 constructs, following along the lines of the equivalent solution
used by the ARM back end to handle their :upper16: / :lower16: markers.
This allows us to get rid of special handling both in the symbolLo/symbolHi
print method and in the common code MCExpr::print routine. Instead, the
ha16 / lo16 markers are printed simply in a custom print routine for the
target MCExpr types. (As a result, the symbolLo/symbolHi print methods
can now replaced by a single printS16ImmOperand routine that also handles
symbolic operands.)
The patch also provides a EvaluateAsRelocatableImpl routine to handle
ha16/lo16 constructs. This is not actually used at the moment by any
in-tree code, but is provided as it makes merging into David Fang's
out-of-tree Mach-O object writer simpler.
Since there is no longer any need to treat VK_PPC_GAS_HA16 and
VK_PPC_DARWIN_HA16 differently, they are merged into a single
VK_PPC_ADDR16_HA (and likewise for the _LO16 types).

BCL is normally a conditional branch-and-link instruction, but has
an unconditional form (which is used in the SjLj code, for example).

The LDrs pattern is a duplicate of LD, except that it accepts memory
addresses where the displacement is a symbolLo64. An operand type
"memrs" is defined for just that purpose.
However, this wouldn't be necessary if the default "memrix" operand
type were to simply accept 64-bit symbolic addresses directly.
The only problem with that is that it uses "symbolLo", which is
hardcoded to 32-bit.
To fix this, this commit changes "memri" and "memrix" to use new
operand types for the memory displacement, which allow iPTR
instead of i32. This will also make address parsing easier to
implment in the asm parser.
No change in generated code.
llvm-svn: 178005
The ADDI/ADDI8 patterns are currently duplicated into ADDIL/ADDI8L,
which describe the same instruction, except that they accept a
symbolLo[64] operand instead of a s16imm[64] operand.
This duplication confuses the asm parser, and it actually not really
needed, since symbolLo[64] already accepts immediate operands anyway.
So this commit removes the duplicate patterns.

We currently have a duplicated set of call instruction patterns depending
on the ABI to be followed (Darwin vs. Linux). This is a bit odd; while the
different ABIs will result in different instruction sequences, the actual
instructions themselves ought to be independent of the ABI. And in fact it
turns out that the only nontrivial difference between the two sets of
patterns is that in the PPC64 Linux ABI, the instruction used for indirect
calls is marked to take X11 as extra input register (which is indeed used
only with that ABI to hold an incoming environment pointer for nested
functions). However, this does not need to be hard-coded at the .td
pattern level; instead, the C++ code expanding calls can simply add that
use, just like it adds uses for argument registers anyway.
No change in generated code expected.

Large code model is identical to medium code model except that the

New sequence:

PowerPC target. This is the last of the four models, so we now have
full TLS support.
This is mostly a straightforward extension of the general dynamic model.
I had to use an additional Chain operand to tie ADDIS_DTPREL_HA to the
register copy following ADDI_TLSLD_L; otherwise everything above the
ADDIS_DTPREL_HA appeared dead and was removed.
As before, there are new test cases to test the assembly generation, and
the relocations output during integrated assembly. The expected code
gen sequence can be read in test/CodeGen/PowerPC/tls-ld.ll.
There are a couple of things I think can be done more efficiently in the
overall TLS code, so there will likely be a clean-up patch forthcoming;
but for now I want to be sure the functionality is in place.

Given a thread-local symbol x with global-dynamic access, the generated
code to obtain x's address is:
Instruction Relocation Symbol
addis ra,r2,x@got@tlsgd@ha R_PPC64_GOT_TLSGD16_HA x
addi r3,ra,x@got@tlsgd@l R_PPC64_GOT_TLSGD16_L x
bl __tls_get_addr(x@tlsgd) R_PPC64_TLSGD x
R_PPC64_REL24 __tls_get_addr
nop
<use address in r3>
The implementation borrows from the medium code model work for introducing
special forms of ADDIS and ADDI into the DAG representation. This is made
slightly more complicated by having to introduce a call to the external
function __tls_get_addr. Using the full call machinery is overkill and,
more importantly, makes it difficult to add a special relocation. So I've
introduced another opcode GET_TLS_ADDR to represent the function call, and
surrounded it with register copies to set up the parameter and return value.
Most of the code is pretty straightforward. I ran into one peculiarity
when I introduced a new PPC opcode BL8_NOP_ELF_TLSGD, which is just like
BL8_NOP_ELF except that it takes another parameter to represent the symbol
("x" above) that requires a relocation on the call. Something in the
TblGen machinery causes BL8_NOP_ELF and BL8_NOP_ELF_TLSGD to be treated
identically during the emit phase, so this second operand was never
visited to generate relocations. This is the reason for the slightly
messy workaround in PPCMCCodeEmitter.cpp:getDirectBrEncoding().
Two new tests are included to demonstrate correct external assembly and
correct generation of relocations using the integrated assembler.
Comments welcome!

on 64-bit PowerPC ELF.
The patch includes code to handle external assembly and MC output with the
integrated assembler. It intentionally does not support the "old" JIT.
For the initial-exec TLS model, the ABI requires the following to calculate
the address of external thread-local variable x:
Code sequence Relocation Symbol
ld 9,x@got@tprel(2) R_PPC64_GOT_TPREL16_DS x
add 9,9,x@tls R_PPC64_TLS x
The register 9 is arbitrary here. The linker will replace x@got@tprel
with the offset relative to the thread pointer to the generated GOT
entry for symbol x. It will replace x@tls with the thread-pointer
register (13).
The two test cases verify correct assembly output and relocation output
as just described.
PowerPC-specific selection node variants are added for the two
instructions above: LD_GOT_TPREL and ADD_TLS. These are inserted
when an initial-exec global variable is encountered by
PPCTargetLowering::LowerGlobalTLSAddress(), and later lowered to
machine instructions LDgotTPREL and ADD8TLS. LDgotTPREL is a pseudo
that uses the same LDrs support added for medium code model's LDtocL,
with a different relocation type.
The rest of the processing is straightforward.

Sooooo many of these had incorrect or strange main module includes.
I have manually inspected all of these, and fixed the main module
include to be the nearest plausible thing I could find. If you own or

and check that these edits were sensible. I can't have broken anything
(I strictly added headers, and reordered them, never removed), but they
may not be the headers you'd really like to identify as containing the
API being implemented.
Many forward declarations and missing includes were added to a header
files to allow them to parse cleanly when included first. The main

The default for 64-bit PowerPC is small code model, in which TOC entries
must be addressable using a 16-bit offset from the TOC pointer. Additionally,
only TOC entries are addressed via the TOC pointer.
With medium code model, TOC entries and data sections can all be addressed
via the TOC pointer using a 32-bit offset. Cooperation with the linker
allows 16-bit offsets to be used when these are sufficient, reducing the
number of extra instructions that need to be executed. Medium code model
also does not generate explicit TOC entries in ".section toc" for variables
that are wholly internal to the compilation unit.
Consider a load of an external 4-byte integer. With small code model, the
compiler generates:
ld 3, .LC1@toc(2)
lwz 4, 0(3)
.section .toc,"aw",@progbits
.LC1:
.tc ei[TC],ei
With medium model, it instead generates:
addis 3, 2, .LC1@toc@ha
ld 3, .LC1@toc@l(3)
lwz 4, 0(3)
.section .toc,"aw",@progbits
.LC1:
.tc ei[TC],ei
Here .LC1@toc@ha is a relocation requesting the upper 16 bits of the
32-bit offset of ei's TOC entry from the TOC base pointer. Similarly,
.LC1@toc@l is a relocation requesting the lower 16 bits. Note that if
the linker determines that ei's TOC entry is within a 16-bit offset of
the TOC base pointer, it will replace the "addis" with a "nop", and
replace the "ld" with the identical "ld" instruction from the small
code model example.
Consider next a load of a function-scope static integer. For small code
model, the compiler generates:
ld 3, .LC1@toc(2)
lwz 4, 0(3)
.section .toc,"aw",@progbits
.LC1:
.tc test_fn_static.si[TC],test_fn_static.si
.type test_fn_static.si,@object
.local test_fn_static.si
.comm test_fn_static.si,4,4
For medium code model, the compiler generates:
addis 3, 2, test_fn_static.si@toc@ha
addi 3, 3, test_fn_static.si@toc@l
lwz 4, 0(3)
.type test_fn_static.si,@object
.local test_fn_static.si
.comm test_fn_static.si,4,4
Again, the linker may replace the "addis" with a "nop", calculating only
a 16-bit offset when this is sufficient.
Note that it would be more efficient for the compiler to generate:
addis 3, 2, test_fn_static.si@toc@ha
lwz 4, test_fn_static.si@toc@l(3)
The current patch does not perform this optimization yet. This will be
addressed as a peephole optimization in a later patch.
For the moment, the default code model for 64-bit PowerPC will remain the
small code model. We plan to eventually change the default to medium code
model, which matches current upstream GCC behavior. Note that the different
code models are ABI-compatible, so code compiled with different models will
be linked and execute correctly.
I've tested the regression suite and the application/benchmark test suite in
two ways: Once with the patch as submitted here, and once with additional
logic to force medium code model as the default. The tests all compile
cleanly, with one exception. The mandel-2 application test fails due to an
unrelated ABI compatibility with passing complex numbers. It just so happens
that small code model was incredibly lucky, in that temporary values in
floating-point registers held the expected values needed by the external
library routine that was called incorrectly. My current thought is to correct
the ABI problems with _Complex before making medium code model the default,
to avoid introducing this "regression."
Here are a few comments on how the patch works, since the selection code
can be difficult to follow:
The existing logic for small code model defines three pseudo-instructions:
LDtoc for most uses, LDtocJTI for jump table addresses, and LDtocCPT for
constant pool addresses. These are expanded by SelectCodeCommon(). The
pseudo-instruction approach doesn't work for medium code model, because
we need to generate two instructions when we match the same pattern.
Instead, new logic in PPCDAGToDAGISel::Select() intercepts the TOC_ENTRY
node for medium code model, and generates an ADDIStocHA followed by either
a LDtocL or an ADDItocL. These new node types correspond naturally to
the sequences described above.
The addis/ld sequence is generated for the following cases:
* Jump table addresses
* Function addresses
* External global variables
* Tentative definitions of global variables (common linkage)
The addis/addi sequence is generated for the following cases:
* Constant pool entries
* File-scope static global variables
* Function-scope static variables
Expanding to the two-instruction sequences at select time exposes the
instructions to subsequent optimization, particularly scheduling.
The rest of the processing occurs at assembly time, in
PPCAsmPrinter::EmitInstruction. Each of the instructions is converted to
a "real" PowerPC instruction. When a TOC entry needs to be created, this
is done here in the same manner as for the existing LDtoc, LDtocJTI, and
LDtocCPT pseudo-instructions (I factored out a new routine to handle this).
I had originally thought that if a TOC entry was needed for LDtocL or
ADDItocL, it would already have been generated for the previous ADDIStocHA.
However, at higher optimization levels, the ADDIStocHA may appear in a
different block, which may be assembled textually following the block
containing the LDtocL or ADDItocL. So it is necessary to include the
possibility of creating a new TOC entry for those two instructions.
Note that for LDtocL, we generate a new form of LD called LDrs. This
allows specifying the @toc@l relocation for the offset field of the LD
instruction (i.e., the offset is replaced by a SymbolLo relocation).
When the peephole optimization described above is added, we will need
to do similar things for all immediate-form load and store operations.
The seven "mcm-n.ll" test cases are kept separate because otherwise the
intermingling of various TOC entries and so forth makes the tests fragile
and hard to understand.
The above assumes use of an external assembler. For use of the
integrated assembler, new relocations are added and used by
PPCELFObjectWriter. Testing is done with "mcm-obj.ll", which tests for
proper generation of the various relocations for the same sequences
tested with the external assembler.

The last remaining bit is "bcl 20, 31, AnonSymbol", which I couldn't find the
instruction definition for. Only whitespace changes in assembly output.

The Z constraint specifies an r+r memory address, and the y modifier expands
to the "r, r" in the asm string. For this initial implementation, the base
register is forced to r0 (which has the special meaning of 0 for r+r addressing
on PowerPC) and the full address is taken in the second register. In the
future, this should be improved.

r165941: Resubmit the changes to llvm core to update the functions to
support different pointer sizes on a per address space basis.
Despite this commit log, this change primarily changed stuff outside of
VMCore, and those changes do not carry any tests for correctness (or
even plausibility), and we have consistently found questionable or flat
out incorrect cases in these changes. Most of them are probably correct,
but we need to devise a system that makes it more clear when we have
handled the address space concerns correctly, and ideally each pass that
gets updated would receive an accompanying test case that exercises that
pass specificaly w.r.t. alternate address spaces.
However, from this commit, I have retained the new C API entry points.
Those were an orthogonal change that probably should have been split
apart, but they seem entirely good.
In several places the changes were very obvious cleanups with no actual
multiple address space code added; these I have not reverted when
I spotted them.
In a few other places there were merge conflicts due to a cleaner
solution being implemented later, often not using address spaces at all.
In those cases, I've preserved the new code which isn't address space
dependent.
This is part of my ongoing effort to clean out the partial address space
code which carries high risk and low test coverage, and not likely to be
finished before the 3.2 release looms closer. Duncan and I would both
like to see the above issues addressed before we return to these
changes.

This patch adds initial PPC64 TOC MC object creation using the small mcmodel
(a single 64K TOC) adding the some TOC relocations (R_PPC64_TOC,
R_PPC64_TOC16, and R_PPC64_TOC16DS).
The addition of 'undefinedExplicitRelSym' hook on 'MCELFObjectTargetWriter'
is meant to avoid the creation of an unreferenced ".TOC." symbol (used in
the .odp creation) as well to set the R_PPC64_TOC relocation target as the
temporary ".TOC." symbol. On PPC64 ABI, the R_PPC64_TOC relocation should
not point to any symbol.

We need to reserve space for the mandatory traceback fields,
though leaving them as zero is appropriate for now.
Although the ABI calls for these fields to be filled in fully, no
compiler on Linux currently does this, and GDB does not read these
fields. GDB uses the first word of zeroes during exception handling to
find the end of the function and the size field, allowing it to compute
the beginning of the function. DWARF information is used for everything
else. We need the extra 8 bytes of pad so the size field is found in
the right place.
As a comparison, GCC fills in a few of the fields -- language, number
of saved registers -- but ignores the rest. IBM's proprietary OSes do
make use of the full traceback table facility.

traceback table on PowerPC64. This helps gdb handle exceptions. The other
mandatory fields are ignored by gdb and harder to implement so just add
there a FIXME.

The reasoning is because the DebugInfo module is simply an interface to the

up to r158925 were handled as processor specific. Making them
generic and putting tests for these modifiers in the CodeGen/Generic
directory caused a number of targets to fail.
This commit addresses that problem by having the targets call
the generic routine for generic modifiers that they don't currently
have explicit code for.
For now only generic print operands 'c' and 'n' are supported.vi

The PPC target feature gpul (IsGigaProcessor) was only used for one thing:
To enable the generation of the MFOCRF instruction. Furthermore, this
instruction is available on other PPC cores outside of the G5 line. This
feature now corresponds to the HasMFOCRF flag.
No functionality change.

Reverting this because it breaks static linking on ppc64. Specifically, it may be linkonce_odr functions that are the problem.
With this patch, if you link statically, calls to some functions end up calling their descriptor addresses instead
of calling to their entry points. This causes the execution to fail with SIGILL (b/c the descriptor address just
has some pointers, not code).
llvm-svn: 151433
The standard function epilog includes a .size directive, but ppc64 uses
an alternate local symbol to tag the actual start of each function.
Until recently, binutils accepted the .size directive as:
.size test1, .Ltmp0-test1
however, using this directive with recent binutils will result in the error:
.size expression for XXX does not evaluate to a constant
so we must use the label which actually tags the start of the function.
