type (in addition to the memory type).
The *LoadExt* legalization handling used to only have one type, the
memory type. This forced users to assume that as long as the extload
for the memory type was declared legal, and the result type was legal,
the whole extload was legal.
However, this isn't always the case. For instance, on X86, with AVX,
this is legal:
v4i32 load, zext from v4i8
but this isn't:
v4i64 load, zext from v4i8
Whereas v4i64 is (arguably) legal, even without AVX2.
Note that the same thing was done a while ago for truncstores (r46140),
but I assume no one needed it yet for extloads, so here we go.
Calls to getLoadExtAction were changed to add the value type, found
manually in the surrounding code.
Calls to setLoadExtAction were mechanically changed, by wrapping the
call in a loop, to match previous behavior. The loop iterates over
the MVT subrange corresponding to the memory type (FP vectors, etc...).
I also pulled neighboring setTruncStoreActions into some of the loops;
those shouldn't make a difference, as the additional types are illegal.
(e.g., i128->i1 truncstores on PPC.)
No functional change intended.

Currently when DAGCombine converts loads feeding a switch into a switch of
addresses feeding a load the new load inherits the isInvariant flag of the left
side. This is incorrect since invariant loads can be reordered in cases where it
is illegal to reoarder normal loads.
This patch adds an isInvariant parameter to getExtLoad() and updates all call
sites to pass in the data if they have it or false if they don't. It also
changes the DAGCombine to use that data to make the right decision when
creating the new load.

Rename to allowsMisalignedMemoryAccess.
On R600, 8 and 16 byte accesses are mostly OK with 4-byte alignment,
and don't need to be split into multiple accesses. Vector loads with
an alignment of the element type are not uncommon in OpenCL code.

In order to enable the preservation of noalias function parameter information
after inlining, and the representation of block-level __restrict__ pointer
information (etc.), additional kinds of aliasing metadata will be introduced.
This metadata needs to be carried around in AliasAnalysis::Location objects
(and MMOs at the SDAG level), and so we need to generalize the current scheme
(which is hard-coded to just one TBAA MDNode*).
This commit introduces only the necessary refactoring to allow for the
introduction of other aliasing metadata types, but does not actually introduce
any (that will come in a follow-up commit). What it does introduce is a new
AAMDNodes structure to hold all of the aliasing metadata nodes associated with
a particular memory-accessing instruction, and uses that structure instead of
the raw MDNode* in AliasAnalysis::Location, etc.
No functionality change intended.

The argument list vector is never used after it has been passed to the
CallLoweringInfo and moving it to the CallLoweringInfo is cleaner and
pretty much as cheap as keeping a pointer to it.

The SelectionDAG bad a special case for ISD::SELECT_CC, where it would
allow targets to specify:
setOperationAction(ISD::SELECT_CC, MVT::Other, Expand);
to indicate that they wanted to expand ISD::SELECT_CC for all types.
This wasn't applied correctly everywhere, and it makes writing new
DAG patterns with ISD::SELECT_CC difficult.

This patch changes GlobalAlias to point to an arbitrary ConstantExpr and it is
up to MC (or the system assembler) to decide if that expression is valid or not.
This reduces our ability to diagnose invalid uses and how early we can spot
them, but it also lets us do things like
@test5 = alias inttoptr(i32 sub (i32 ptrtoint (i32* @test2 to i32),
i32 ptrtoint (i32* @bar to i32)) to i32*)
An important implication of this patch is that the notion of aliased global
doesn't exist any more. The alias has to encode the information needed to
access it in its metadata (linkage, visibility, type, etc).
Another consequence to notice is that getSection has to return a "const char *".
It could return a NullTerminatedStringRef if there was such a thing, but when
that was proposed the decision was to just uses "const char*" for that.

This is mostly a mechanical change changing all the call sites to the newer
chained-function construction pattern. This removes the horrible 15-parameter
constructor for the CallLoweringInfo in favour of setting properties of the call
via chained functions. No functional change beyond the removal of the old
constructors are intended.

This adds back r204781.
Original message:
Aliases are just another name for a position in a file. As such, the
regular symbol resolutions are not applied. For example, given
define void @my_func() {
ret void
}
@my_alias = alias weak void ()* @my_func
@my_alias2 = alias void ()* @my_alias
We produce without this patch:
.weak my_alias
my_alias = my_func
.globl my_alias2
my_alias2 = my_alias
That is, in the resulting ELF file my_alias, my_func and my_alias are
just 3 names pointing to offset 0 of .text. That is *not* the
semantics of IR linking. For example, linking in a
@my_alias = alias void ()* @other_func
would require the strong my_alias to override the weak one and
my_alias2 would end up pointing to other_func.
There is no way to represent that with aliases being just another
name, so the best solution seems to be to just disallow it, converting
a miscompile into an error.

This reverts commit r204781.
I will follow up to with msan folks to see what is what they
were trying to do with aliases to weak aliases.

If a function returns a large struct by value return the first 4 words
in registers and the rest on the stack in a location reserved by the
caller. This is needed to support the xC language which supports
functions returning an arbitrary number of return values. This is
r202397 reapplied with a fix to avoid an uninitialized read of a member.

Summary:
If a function returns a large struct by value return the first 4 words

The behaviour of the XCore's instruction buffer means that the performance
of the same code sequence can differ depending on whether it starts at a 4
byte aligned address or not. Since we don't model the instruction buffer
in the backend we have no way of knowing for sure if it is beneficial to
word align a specific function. However, in the absence of precise
modelling, it is better on balance to word align functions because:
* It makes a fetch-nop while executing the prologue slightly less likely.
* If we don't word align functions then a small perturbation in one
function can have a dramatic knock on effect. If the size of the function
changes it might change the alignment and therefore the performance of
all the functions that happen to follow it in the binary. This butterfly
effect makes it harder to reason about and measure the performance of
code.

Xcore target ABI requires const data that is externally visible
to be handled differently if it has C-language linkage rather than
C++ language linkage.
Clang now emits ".cp.rodata" section information.
All other externally visible constant data will be placed in the DP section.
llvm-svn: 201144
This requires a knowledge of the stack size which is not known until
the frame is complete, hence the need for the XCoreFTAOElim pass
which lowers the XCoreISD::FRAME_TO_ARGS_OFFSET instrution into its
final form.

This changes the MachineFrameInfo API to use the new SSPLayoutKind information
produced by the StackProtector pass (instead of a boolean flag) and updates a
few pass dependencies (to preserve the SSP analysis).
The stack layout follows the same approach used prior to this change - i.e.,
only LargeArray stack objects will be placed near the canary and everything
else will be laid out normally. After this change, structures containing large
arrays will also be placed near the canary - a case previously missed by the
old implementation.
Out of tree targets will need to update their usage of
MachineFrameInfo::CreateStackObject to remove the MayNeedSP argument.
The next patch will implement the rules for sspstrong and sspreq. The end goal
is to support ssp-strong stack layout rules.
WIP.

When using large code model:
Global objects larger than 'CodeModelLargeSize' bytes are placed in sections named with a trailing ".large"
The folded global address of such objects are lowered into the const pool.
During inspection it was noted that LowerConstantPool() was using a default offset of zero.
A fix was made, but due to only offsets of zero being generated, testing only verifies the change is not detrimental.
Correct the flags emitted for explicitly specified sections.
We assume the size of the object queried by getSectionForConstant() is never greater than CodeModelLargeSize.
To handle greater than CodeModelLargeSize, changes to AsmPrinter would be required.
