This patch:
- enable frame pointer for AIX;
- update some of red zone comments;
- add/update testcases;
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D72454
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"

This patch issues an error message if Darwin ABI is attempted with the PPC
backend. It also cleans up existing test cases, either converting the test to
use an alternative triple or removing the test if the coverage is no longer
needed.
Updated Tests
-------------
The majority of test cases were updated to use a different triple that does not
include the Darwin ABI. Many tests were also updated to use FileCheck, in place
of grep.
Deleted Tests
-------------
llvm/test/tools/dsymutil/PowerPC/sibling.test was originally added to test
specific functionality of dsymutil using an object file created with an old
version of llvm-gcc for a Powerbook G4. After a discussion with @JDevlieghere he
suggested removing the test.
llvm/test/CodeGen/PowerPC/combine_loads_from_build_pair.ll was converted from a
PPC test to a SystemZ test, as the behavior is also reproducible there.
All other tests that were deleted were specific to the darwin/ppc ABI and no
longer necessary.

`llc -march` is problematic because it only switches the target
architecture, but leaves the operating system unchanged. This
occasionally leads to indeterministic tests because the OS from
LLVM_DEFAULT_TARGET_TRIPLE is used.
However we can simply always use `llc -mtriple` instead. This changes
all the tests to do this to avoid people using -march when they copy and
paste parts of tests.
This patch:
- Removes -march if the .ll file already has a matching `target triple`
directive or -mtriple argument.
- In all other cases changes -march=ppc32/-march=ppc64 to
-mtriple=ppc32--/-mtriple=ppc64--

Currently we have a number of tests that fail with -verify-machineinstrs.
To detect this cases earlier we add the option to the testcases with the
exception of tests that will currently fail with this option. PR 27456 keeps
track of this failures.
No code review, as discussed with Hal Finkel.

The PPCFrameLowering::determineFrameLayout routine currently ensures
that every function that allocates a stack frame provides space for the
parameter save area (via PPCFrameLowering::getMinCallFrameSize).
This is actually not necessary. There may be functions that never call
another routine but still allocate a frame; those do not require the
parameter save area. In the future, with the ELFv2 ABI, even some
routines that do call other functions do not need to allocate the
parameter save area.
While it is not a bug to allocate the parameter area when it is not
needed, it is better to avoid it to save stack space.
Note that when any particular function call requires the parameter save
area, this space will already have been included by ABI code in the size
the CALLSEQ_START insn is annotated with, and therefore included in the
size returned by MFI->getMaxCallFrameSize().
This means that determineFrameLayout simply does not need to care about
the parameter save area. (It still needs to ensure that every frame
provides the linkage area.) This is implemented by this patch.
Note that this exposed a bug in the new fast-isel code where the parameter
area was *not* included in the CALLSEQ_START size; this is also fixed.
A couple of test cases needed to be adapted for the new (smaller) stack
frame size those tests now see.

This was done through the aid of a terrible Perl creation. I will not
paste any of the horrors here. Suffice to say, it require multiple
staged rounds of replacements, state carried between, and a few
nested-construct-parsing hacks that I'm not proud of. It happens, by
luck, to be able to deal with all the TCL-quoting patterns in evidence
in the LLVM test suite.
If anyone is maintaining large out-of-tree test trees, feel free to poke
me and I'll send you the steps I used to convert things, as well as
answer any painful questions etc. IRC works best for this type of thing
I find.
Once converted, switch the LLVM lit config to use ShTests the same as
Clang. In addition to being able to delete large amounts of Python code
from 'lit', this will also simplify the entire test suite and some of
lit's architecture.
Finally, the test suite runs 33% faster on Linux now. ;]

This violates the ABI (that area is "reserved"), and
while it is safe if all code is generated with current
compilers, there is some very old code around that uses
that slot for something else, and breaks if it is stored
into. Adjust testcases looking for current behavior.
I've verified that the stack frame size is right in all
testcases, whether it changed or not. 7311323.
