Part of the effort to refactoring frame pointer code generation. We used
to use two function attributes "no-frame-pointer-elim" and
"no-frame-pointer-elim-non-leaf" to represent three kinds of frame
pointer usage: (all) frames use frame pointer, (non-leaf) frames use
frame pointer, (none) frame use frame pointer. This CL makes the idea
explicit by using only one enum function attribute "frame-pointer"
Option "-frame-pointer=" replaces "-disable-fp-elim" for tools such as
llc.
"no-frame-pointer-elim" and "no-frame-pointer-elim-non-leaf" are still
supported for easy migration to "frame-pointer".
tests are mostly updated with
// replace command line args ‘-disable-fp-elim=false’ with ‘-frame-pointer=none’
grep -iIrnl '\-disable-fp-elim=false' * | xargs sed -i '' -e "s/-disable-fp-elim=false/-frame-pointer=none/g"
// replace command line args ‘-disable-fp-elim’ with ‘-frame-pointer=all’
grep -iIrnl '\-disable-fp-elim' * | xargs sed -i '' -e "s/-disable-fp-elim/-frame-pointer=all/g"

Summary:
This is a continuation of https://reviews.llvm.org/D49727
Below the original text, current changes in the comments:
Currently, in line with GCC, when specifying reserved registers like sp or pc on an inline asm() clobber list, we don't always preserve the original value across the statement. And in general, overwriting reserved registers can have surprising results.
For example:
extern int bar(int[]);
int foo(int i) {
int a[i]; // VLA
asm volatile(
"mov r7, #1"
:
:
: "r7"
);
return 1 + bar(a);
}
Compiled for thumb, this gives:
$ clang --target=arm-arm-none-eabi -march=armv7a -c test.c -o - -S -O1 -mthumb
...
foo:
.fnstart
@ %bb.0: @ %entry
.save {r4, r5, r6, r7, lr}
push {r4, r5, r6, r7, lr}
.setfp r7, sp, #12
add r7, sp, #12
.pad #4
sub sp, #4
movs r1, #7
add.w r0, r1, r0, lsl #2
bic r0, r0, #7
sub.w r0, sp, r0
mov sp, r0
@APP
mov.w r7, #1
@NO_APP
bl bar
adds r0, #1
sub.w r4, r7, #12
mov sp, r4
pop {r4, r5, r6, r7, pc}
...
r7 is used as the frame pointer for thumb targets, and this function needs to restore the SP from the FP because of the variable-length stack allocation a. r7 is clobbered by the inline assembly (and r7 is included in the clobber list), but LLVM does not preserve the value of the frame pointer across the assembly block.
This type of behavior is similar to GCC's and has been discussed on the bugtracker: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11807 . No consensus seemed to have been reached on the way forward. Clang behavior has briefly been discussed on the CFE mailing (starting here: http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/cfe-dev/2018-July/058392.html). I've opted for following Eli Friedman's advice to print warnings when there are reserved registers on the clobber list so as not to diverge from GCC behavior for now.
The patch uses MachineRegisterInfo's target-specific knowledge of reserved registers, just before we convert the inline asm string in the AsmPrinter.
If we find a reserved register, we print a warning:
repro.c:6:7: warning: inline asm clobber list contains reserved registers: R7 [-Winline-asm]
"mov r7, #1"
