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.

As discussed in a previous checking to support the .localentry
directive on PowerPC, we need to inspect the actual target symbol
in needsRelocateWithSymbol to make the appropriate decision based
on that symbol's st_other bits.
Currently, needsRelocateWithSymbol does not get the target symbol.
However, it is directly available to its sole caller. This patch
therefore simply extends the needsRelocateWithSymbol by a new
parameter "const MCSymbolData &SD", passes in the target symbol,
and updates all derived implementations.
In particular, in the PowerPC implementation, this patch removes
the FIXME added by the previous checkin.

Prior to this change, the loop vectorizer did not make use of the alias
analysis infrastructure. Instead, it performed memory dependence analysis using
ScalarEvolution-based linear dependence checks within equivalence classes
derived from the results of ValueTracking's GetUnderlyingObjects.
Unfortunately, this meant that:
1. The loop vectorizer had logic that essentially duplicated that in BasicAA
for aliasing based on identified objects.
2. The loop vectorizer could not partition the space of dependency checks
based on information only easily available from within AA (TBAA metadata is
currently the prime example).
This means, for example, regardless of whether -fno-strict-aliasing was
provided, the vectorizer would only vectorize this loop with a runtime
memory-overlap check:
void foo(int *a, float *b) {
for (int i = 0; i < 1600; ++i)
a[i] = b[i];
}
This is suboptimal because the TBAA metadata already provides the information
necessary to show that this check unnecessary. Of course, the vectorizer has a
limit on the number of such checks it will insert, so in practice, ignoring
TBAA means not vectorizing more-complicated loops that we should.
This change causes the vectorizer to use an AliasSetTracker to keep track of
the pointers in the loop. The resulting alias sets are then used to partition
the space of dependency checks, and potential runtime checks; this results in
more-efficient vectorizations.
When pointer locations are added to the AliasSetTracker, two things are done:
1. The location size is set to UnknownSize (otherwise you'd not catch
inter-iteration dependencies)
2. For instructions in blocks that would need to be predicated, TBAA is
removed (because the metadata might have a control dependency on the condition
being speculated).
For non-predicated blocks, you can leave the TBAA metadata. This is safe
because you can't have an iteration dependency on the TBAA metadata (if you
did, and you unrolled sufficiently, you'd end up with the same pointer value
used by two accesses that TBAA says should not alias, and that would yield
undefined behavior).

A second binutils feature needed to support ELFv2 is the .localentry
directive. In the ELFv2 ABI, functions may have two entry points:
one for calling the routine locally via "bl", and one for calling the
function via function pointer (either at the source level, or implicitly
via a PLT stub for global calls). The two entry points share a single
ELF symbol, where the ELF symbol address identifies the global entry
point address, while the local entry point is found by adding a delta
offset to the symbol address. That offset is encoded into three
platform-specific bits of the ELF symbol st_other field.
The .localentry directive instructs the assembler to set those fields
to encode a particular offset. This is typically used by a function
prologue sequence like this:
func:
addis r2, r12, (.TOC.-func)@ha
addi r2, r2, (.TOC.-func)@l
.localentry func, .-func
Note that according to the ABI, when calling the global entry point,
r12 must be set to point the global entry point address itself; while
when calling the local entry point, r2 must be set to point to the TOC
base. The two instructions between the global and local entry point in
the above example translate the first requirement into the second.
This patch implements support in the PowerPC MC streamers to emit the
.localentry directive (both into assembler and ELF object output), as
well as support in the assembler parser to parse that directive.
In addition, there is another change required in MC fixup/relocation
handling to properly deal with relocations targeting function symbols
with two entry points: When the target function is known local, the MC
layer would immediately handle the fixup by inserting the target
address -- this is wrong, since the call may need to go to the local
entry point instead. The GNU assembler handles this case by *not*
directly resolving fixups targeting functions with two entry points,
but always emits the relocation and relies on the linker to handle
this case correctly. This patch changes LLVM MC to do the same (this
is done via the processFixupValue routine).
Similarly, there are cases where the assembler would normally emit a
relocation, but "simplify" it to a relocation targeting a *section*
instead of the actual symbol. For the same reason as above, this
may be wrong when the target symbol has two entry points. The GNU
assembler again handles this case by not performing this simplification
in that case, but leaving the relocation targeting the full symbol,
which is then resolved by the linker. This patch changes LLVM MC
to do the same (via the needsRelocateWithSymbol routine).
NOTE: The method used in this patch is overly pessimistic, since the
needsRelocateWithSymbol routine currently does not have access to the
actual target symbol, and thus must always assume that it might have
two entry points. This will be improved upon by a follow-on patch
that modifies common code to pass the target symbol when calling
needsRelocateWithSymbol.

When handling an incoming byval argument, we need to possibly write
incoming registers to the stack in order to create an on-stack image
of the parameter, so we can return its address to common code.
This currently uses CreateFixedObject to access the parts of the
parameter save area where the argument is (or needs to be) stored.
However, sometimes we need to access multiple parts of that area,
e.g. to write multiple registers. The code currently uses a new
CreateFixedObject call for each of these accesses, resulting in
a patchwork of overlapping (fixed) stack objects.
This doesn't really matter in the case of fixed objects, since
any access to those turns into a fixed stackpointer + offset
address anyway. However, with the upcoming ELFv2 patches, we
may actually need to place an incoming argument into our *own*
stack frame instead of the caller's. This means we need to use
CreateStackObject instead, and we cannot have multiple overlapping
instances of those.
To make the rest of the argument handling code work equally in
both situations, this patch refactors it to always use just a
single call to CreateFixedObject, and access parts of that object
as required using address arithmetic. This way, we can in a future
patch substitute CreateStackObject without further changes.
No change to generated code intended.

The PPCTargetLowering::SelectAddressRegImm routine needs to handle
FrameIndex nodes in a special manner, by tranlating them into a
TargetFrameIndex node. This was done in most cases, but seems to
have been neglected in one path: when the input tree has an OR of
the FrameIndex with an immediate. This can happen if the FrameIndex
can be proven to be sufficiently aligned that an OR of that immediate
is equivalent to an ADD.
The missing handling of FrameIndex in that case caused the SelectionDAG
instruction selection to miss opportunities to merge the OR back into
the FrameIndex node, leading to superfluous addi/ori instructions in
the final assembler output.

For ARM cores that are ARMv6T2+ but not ARMv7ve or ARMv7-r and not an updated
ARMv7-a that has the idiv extension (chips with clz but not idiv), an incorrect
jump would be calculated due to the preference to thumb instructions over ARM.
Rather than computing the target at runtime, use a jumptable instead. This
trades a bit of storage for performance. The overhead is 32-bytes for each of
the three routines, but avoid the calculation of the offset.
Because clz was introduced in ARMv6T2 and idiv in certain versions of ARMv7,
the non-clz, non-idiv case implies a target which does not support Thumb-2, and
thus we cannot use Thumb on those targets (as it is unlikely that the assembly
will assemble).
Take the opportunity to refactor the IT block macros into assembly.h rather than
redefining them in the TUs where they are used.
Existing tests cover the full change already, so no new tests are added.
This effectively reverts SVN r213309.

There are some kinds of metadata that are safe to propagate from the scalar
instructions to the vector instructions (fpmath and tbaa currently).
Regarding TBAA, one might worry about propagating it on if-converted loads and
stores, because the metadata might have had a control dependency on the
condition, and thus actually aliased with some other non-speculated memory
access when the condition was false. However, this would be caught by the
runtime overlap checks.

Function @test3c should check that the DAGCombiner is able to fold a pair of
shuffles into a new shuffle with a permute mask of <6,7,2,3>. However, one of
the shuffles in @test3c had a wrong permute mask; this prevented the DAGCombiner
from folding the shuffles into the expected result.
Now that the shuffle mask is fixed, the backend correctly folds the two shuffles
in function @test3c into a single movhlps instruction.

When we have a parameter (or call site return) with a dereferenceable
attribute, it can specify the size of an array pointed to by that parameter. If
we have a value for which we can accumulate a constant offset to such a
parameter, then we can use that offset in a direct comparison with the size
specified by the dereferenceable attribute.
This enables us to handle cases like this:
int foo(int a[static 3]) {
return a[2]; /* this is always dereferenceable */
}

C99 array parameters can have index-type CVR qualifiers, and the TypePrinter
should print them when present (and we were not for constant-sized arrays).
Otherwise, we'd drop the restrict in:
int foo(int a[restrict static 3]) { ... }
llvm-svn: 213445
In C99, an array parameter declarator might have the form:
direct-declarator '[' 'static' type-qual-list[opt] assign-expr ']'
where the static keyword indicates that the caller will always provide a
pointer to the beginning of an array with at least the number of elements
specified by the assignment expression. For constant sizes, we can use the
new dereferenceable attribute to pass this information to the optimizer. For
VLAs, we don't know the size, but (for addrspace(0)) do know that the pointer
must be nonnull (and so we can use the nonnull attribute).

When performing a dynamic stack adjustment without optimisations, we would mark
SP as def and R4 as kill. This occurred as part of the expansion of a
WIN__CHKSTK SDNode which indicated the proper handling of SP and R4. The result
would be that we would double define SP as part of an operation, which is
obviously incorrect.
Furthermore, the VTList for the chain had an incorrect parameter type of i32
instead of Other.
Correct these to permit proper lowering of __builtin_alloca at -O0.
