Over the entire test-suite, this has an insignificantly negative average
performance impact, but reduces some of the worst slowdowns from the
anti-dep. change (r158294).
Largest speedups:
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Stanford/Quicksort - 28%
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Stanford/Towers - 24%
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout-C++/matrix - 23%
MultiSource/Benchmarks/SciMark2-C/scimark2 - 19%
MultiSource/Benchmarks/MiBench/automotive-bitcount/automotive-bitcount - 15%
(matrix and automotive-bitcount were both in the top-5 slowdown list from the
anti-dep. change)
Largest slowdowns:
MultiSource/Benchmarks/McCat/03-testtrie/testtrie - 28%
MultiSource/Benchmarks/mediabench/gsm/toast/toast - 26%

It seems that this no longer causes test suite failures on PPC64 (after r157159),
and often gives a performance benefit, so it can be enabled by default.

to pass around a struct instead of a large set of individual values. This
cleans up the interface and allows more information to be added to the struct
for future targets without requiring changes to each and every target.

NB: I am obviously testing the water here, and believe that the unguarded
cast is still wrong, but why is the getZExtValue of the load's operand
tested against zero here? Any review is appreciated.

This allows us to keep passing reduced masks to SimplifyDemandedBits, but
know about all the bits if SimplifyDemandedBits fails. This allows instcombine
to simplify cases like the one in the included testcase.

Dynamic linking on PPC64 has had problems since we had to move the top-down
hazard-detection logic post-ra. For dynamic linking to work there needs to be
a nop placed after every call. It turns out that it is really hard to guarantee
that nothing will be placed in between the call (bl) and the nop during post-ra
scheduling. Previous attempts at fixing this by placing logic inside the
hazard detector only partially worked.
This is now fixed in a different way: call+nop codegen-only instructions. As far
as CodeGen is concerned the pair is now a single instruction and cannot be split.
This solution works much better than previous attempts.
The scoreboard hazard detector is also renamed to be more generic, there is currently
no cpu-specific logic in it.

The PPC64 SVR4 ABI requires integer stack arguments, and thus the var. args., that
are smaller than 64 bits be zero extended to 64 bits.
llvm-svn: 153373
the processor keeps a return addresses stack (RAS) which stores the address
and the instruction execution state of the instruction after a function-call
type branch instruction.
Calling a "noreturn" function with normal call instructions (e.g. bl) can
corrupt RAS and causes 100% return misprediction so LLVM should use a
unconditional branch instead. i.e.
mov lr, pc
b _foo
The "mov lr, pc" is issued in order to get proper backtrace.

undefined result. This adds new ISD nodes for the new semantics,
selecting them when the LLVM intrinsic indicates that the undef behavior
is desired. The new nodes expand trivially to the old nodes, so targets
don't actually need to do anything to support these new nodes besides
indicating that they should be expanded. I've done this for all the
operand types that I could figure out for all the targets. Owners of
various targets, please review and let me know if any of these are
incorrect.
Note that the expand behavior is *conservatively correct*, and exactly
matches LLVM's current behavior with these operations. Ideally this
patch will not change behavior in any way. For example the regtest suite
finds the exact same instruction sequences coming out of the code
generator. That's why there are no new tests here -- all of this is
being exercised by the existing test suite.
Thanks to Duncan Sands for reviewing the various bits of this patch and
helping me get the wrinkles ironed out with expanding for each target.
Also thanks to Chris for clarifying through all the discussions that
this is indeed the approach he was looking for. That said, there are
likely still rough spots. Further review much appreciated.

One small functionality change in PTX. PTX had commented out the machine
verifier parts in their copy of printAndVerify. That now calls the version in
LLVMTargetMachine. Users of PTX who need verification disabled should rely on
not passing the command-line flag to enable it.

This patch also removes VSETCC codegen nodes, unifying them with SETCC
nodes (codegen was actually often using SETCC for vector SETCC already).
This ensures that various DAG combiner optimizations kick in for vector
comparisons. Passes dragonegg bootstrap with no testsuite regressions
(nightly testsuite as well as "make check-all"). Patch mostly by
Nadav Rotem.

init.trampoline and adjust.trampoline intrinsics, into two intrinsics
like in GCC. While having one combined intrinsic is tempting, it is
not natural because typically the trampoline initialization needs to
be done in one function, and the result of adjust trampoline is needed
in a different (nested) function. To get around this llvm-gcc hacks the
nested function lowering code to insert an additional parent variable
holding the adjust.trampoline result that can be accessed from the child
function. Dragonegg doesn't have the luxury of tweaking GCC code, so it
stored the result of adjust.trampoline in the memory GCC set aside for
the trampoline itself (this is always available in the child function),
and set up some new memory (using an alloca) to hold the trampoline.
Unfortunately this breaks Go which allocates trampoline memory on the
heap and wants to use it even after the parent has exited (!). Rather
than doing even more hacks to get Go working, it seemed best to just use
two intrinsics like in GCC. Patch mostly by Sanjoy Das.

- Check for MTCTR8 in addition to MTCTR when looking up a hazard.
- When lowering an indirect call use CTR8 when targeting 64bit.
- Introduce BCTR8 that uses CTR8 and use it on 64bit when expanding ISD::BRIND.
The last change fixes PR8487. With those changes, we are able to compile a
running "ls" and "sh" on FreeBSD/PowerPC64.

In other words, do not keep track of argument's location. The debugger (gdb) is not prepared to see line table entries for arguments. For the debugger, "second" line table entry marks beginning of function body.
This requires some coordination with debugger to get this working.
- The debugger needs to be aware of prolog_end attribute attached with line table entries.
- The compiler needs to accurately mark prolog_end in line table entries (at -O0 and at -O1+)

us pass PowerPC/indirectbr.ll.
The one annoying thing about this patch is that the MCSymbolExpr isn't
expressive enough to represent ha16(label1-label2) which we need on
PowerPC. I have a terrible hack in the meantime, but this will have
to be revisited at some point.
