This broke the RISCV build, and even with that fixed, one of the RISCV
tests behaves surprisingly differently with asserts than without,
leaving there no clear test pattern to use. Generally it seems bad for
hte IR to differ substantially due to asserts (as in, an alloca is used
with asserts that isn't needed without!) and nothing I did simply would
fix it so I'm reverting back to green.
This also required reverting the RISCV build fix in r351782.

This patch performs a widening transformation of bitwise atomicrmw
{or,xor,and} and applies it prior to tryExpandAtomicRMW. This operates
similarly to convertCmpXchgToIntegerType. For these operations, the i8/i16
atomicrmw can be implemented in terms of the 32-bit atomicrmw by appropriately
manipulating the operands. There is no functional change for the handling of
partword or/xor, but the transformation for partword 'and' is new.
The advantage of performing this transformation early is that the same
code-path can be used regardless of the approach used to expand the atomicrmw
(AtomicExpansionKind). i.e. the same logic is used for
AtomicExpansionKind::CmpXchg and can also be used by the intrinsic-based
expansion in D47882.

Many CPUs only have the ability to do a 4-byte cmpxchg (or ll/sc), not 1
or 2-byte. For those, you need to mask and shift the 1 or 2 byte values
appropriately to use the 4-byte instruction.
This change adds support for cmpxchg-based instruction sets (only SPARC,
in LLVM). The support can be extended for LL/SC-based PPC and MIPS in
the future, supplanting the ISel expansions those architectures
currently use.
Tests added for the IR transform and SPARCv9.

The fast register-allocator cannot cope with inter-block dependencies without
spilling. This is fine for ldrex/strex loops coming from atomicrmw instructions
where any value produced within a block is dead by the end, but not for
cmpxchg. So we lower a cmpxchg at -O0 via a pseudo-inst that gets expanded
after regalloc.
Fortunately this is at -O0 so we don't have to care about performance. This
simplifies the various axes of expansion considerably: we assume a strong
seq_cst operation and ensure ordering via the always-present DMB instructions
rather than v8 acquire/release instructions.
Should fix the 32-bit part of PR25526.

(Recommit of r266002, with r266011, r266016, and not accidentally
including an extra unused/uninitialized element in LibcallRoutineNames)
AtomicExpandPass can now lower atomic load, atomic store, atomicrmw, and
cmpxchg instructions to __atomic_* library calls, when the target
doesn't support atomics of a given size.
This is the first step towards moving all atomic lowering from clang
into llvm. When all is done, the behavior of __sync_* builtins,
__atomic_* builtins, and C11 atomics will be unified.
Previously LLVM would pass everything through to the ISelLowering
code. There, unsupported atomic instructions would turn into __sync_*
library calls. Because of that behavior, Clang currently avoids emitting
llvm IR atomic instructions when this would happen, and emits __atomic_*
library functions itself, in the frontend.
This change makes LLVM able to emit __atomic_* libcalls, and thus will
eventually allow clang to depend on LLVM to do the right thing.
It is advantageous to do the new lowering to atomic libcalls in
AtomicExpandPass, before ISel time, because it's important that all
atomic operations for a given size either lower to __atomic_*
libcalls (which may use locks), or native instructions which won't. No
mixing and matching.
At the moment, this code is enabled only for SPARC, as a
demonstration. The next commit will expand support to all of the other
targets.

DMB instructions can be expensive, so it's best to avoid them if possible. In
atomicrmw operations there will always be an attempted store so a release
barrier is always needed, but in the cmpxchg case we can delay the DMB until we
know we'll definitely try to perform a store (and so need release semantics).
In the strong cmpxchg case this isn't quite free: we must duplicate the LDREX
instructions to skip the barrier on subsequent iterations. The basic outline
becomes:
ldrex rOld, [rAddr]
cmp rOld, rDesired
bne Ldone
dmb
Lloop:
strex rRes, rNew, [rAddr]
cbz rRes Ldone
ldrex rOld, [rAddr]
cmp rOld, rDesired
beq Lloop
Ldone:
So we'll skip this version for strong operations in "minsize" functions.

Today, we do not allow cmpxchg operations with pointer arguments. We require the frontend to insert ptrtoint casts and do the cmpxchg in integers. While correct, this is problematic from a couple of perspectives:
1) It makes the IR harder to analyse (for instance, it make capture tracking overly conservative)
2) It pushes work onto the frontend authors for no real gain
This patch implements the simplest form of IR support. As we did with floating point loads and stores, we teach AtomicExpand to convert back to the old representation. This prevents us needing to change all backends in a single lock step change. Over time, we can migrate each backend to natively selecting the pointer type. In the meantime, we get the advantages of a cleaner IR representation without waiting for the backend changes.

This patch allows atomic loads and stores of floating point to be specified in the IR and adds an adapter to allow them to be lowered via existing backend support for bitcast-to-equivalent-integer idiom.
Previously, the only way to specify a atomic float operation was to bitcast the pointer to a i32, load the value as an i32, then bitcast to a float. At it's most basic, this patch simply moves this expansion step to the point we start lowering to the backend.
This patch does not add canonicalization rules to convert the bitcast idioms to the appropriate atomic loads. I plan to do that in the future, but for now, let's simply add the support. I'd like to get instruction selection working through at least one backend (x86-64) without the bitcast conversion before canonicalizing into this form.
Similarly, I haven't yet added the target hooks to opt out of the lowering step I added to AtomicExpand. I figured it would more sense to add those once at least one backend (x86) was ready to actually opt out.
As you can see from the included tests, the generated code quality is not great. I plan on submitting some patches to fix this, but help from others along that line would be very welcome. I'm not super familiar with the backend and my ramp up time may be material.

ARM counterpart to r248291:
In the comparison failure block of a cmpxchg expansion, the initial
ldrex/ldxr will not be followed by a matching strex/stxr.
On ARM/AArch64, this unnecessarily ties up the execution monitor,
which might have a negative performance impact on some uarchs.
Instead, release the monitor in the failure block.
The clrex instruction was designed for this: use it.
Also see ARMARM v8-A B2.10.2:
"Exclusive access instructions and Shareable memory locations".

Fixes two latent bugs:
- There was no fence inserted before expanded seq_cst load (unsound on Power)
- There was only a fence release before seq_cst stores (again unsound, in particular on Power)
It is not even clear if this is correct on ARM swift processors (where release fences are
DMB ishst instead of DMB ish). This behaviour is currently preserved on ARM Swift
as it is not clear whether it is incorrect. I would love to get documentation stating
whether it is correct or not.
These two bugs were not triggered because Power is not (yet) using this pass, and these
behaviours happen to be (mostly?) working on ARM
(although they completely butchered the semantics of the llvm IR).
See:
http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvmdev/2014-August/075821.html
for an example of the problems that can be caused by the second of these bugs.
I couldn't see a way of fixing these in a completely target-independent way without
adding lots of unnecessary fences on ARM, hence the target-dependent parts of this
patch.
This patch implements the new target-dependent parts only for ARM (the default
of not doing anything is enough for AArch64), other architectures will use this
infrastructure in later patches.
