This patch adds Hardware Transaction Memory (HTM) support supported by ISA 2.07
(POWER8). The intrinsic support is based on GCC one [1], but currently only the
'PowerPC HTM Low Level Built-in Function' are implemented.
The HTM instructions follows the RC ones and the transaction initiation result
is set on RC0 (with exception of tcheck). Currently approach is to create a
register copy from CR0 to GPR and comapring. Although this is suboptimal, since
the branch could be taken directly by comparing the CR0 value, it generates code
correctly on both test and branch and just return value. A possible future
optimization could be elimitate the MFCR instruction to branch directly.
The HTM usage requires a recently newer kernel with PPC HTM enabled. Tested on
powerpc64 and powerpc64le.
This is send along a clang patch to enabled the builtins and option switch.

This adds support for the QPX vector instruction set, which is used by the
enhanced A2 cores on the IBM BG/Q supercomputers. QPX vectors are 256 bytes
wide, holding 4 double-precision floating-point values. Boolean values, modeled
here as <4 x i1> are actually also represented as floating-point values
(essentially { -1, 1 } for { false, true }). QPX shares many features with
Altivec and VSX, but is distinct from both of them. One major difference is
that, instead of adding completely-separate vector registers, QPX vector
registers are extensions of the scalar floating-point registers (lane 0 is the
corresponding scalar floating-point value). The operations supported on QPX
vectors mirrors that supported on the scalar floating-point values (with some
additional ones for permutations and logical/comparison operations).
I've been maintaining this support out-of-tree, as part of the bgclang project,
for several years. This is not the entire bgclang patch set, but is most of the
subset that can be cleanly integrated into LLVM proper at this time. Adding
this to the LLVM backend is part of my efforts to rebase bgclang to the current
LLVM trunk, but is independently useful (especially for codes that use LLVM as
a JIT in library form).
The assembler/disassembler test coverage is complete. The CodeGen test coverage
is not, but I've included some tests, and more will be added as follow-up work.

Patch by Kit Barton.
Add the vector count leading zeros instruction for byte, halfword,
word, and doubleword sizes. This is a fairly straightforward addition
after the changes made for vpopcnt:
1. Add the correct definitions for the various instructions in
PPCInstrAltivec.td
2. Make the CTLZ operation legal on vector types when using P8Altivec
in PPCISelLowering.cpp
Test Plan
Created new test case in test/CodeGen/PowerPC/vec_clz.ll to check the
instructions are being generated when the CTLZ operation is used in
LLVM.
Check the encoding and decoding in test/MC/PowerPC/ppc_encoding_vmx.s
and test/Disassembler/PowerPC/ppc_encoding_vmx.txt respectively.

Patch by Kit Barton.
Add the vector population count instructions for byte, halfword, word,
and doubleword sizes. There are two major changes here:
PPCISelLowering.cpp: Make CTPOP legal for vector types.
PPCRegisterInfo.td: Added v2i64 to the VRRC register
definition. This is needed for the doubleword variations of the
integer ops that were added in P8.
Test Plan
Test the instruction vpcnt* encoding/decoding in ppc64-encoding-vmx.s
Test the generation of the vpopcnt instructions for various vector
data types. When adding the v2i64 type to the Vector Register set, I
also needed to add the appropriate bit conversion patterns between
v2i64 and the existing vector types. Testing for these conversions
were also added in the test case by passing a different vector type as
a parameter into the test functions. There is also a run step that
will ensure the vpopcnt instructions are generated when the vsx
feature is disabled.

Newer POWER cores, and the A2, support the cmpb instruction. This instruction
compares its operands, treating each of the 8 bytes in the GPRs separately,
returning a 'mask' result of 0 (for false) or -1 (for true) in each byte.
Code generation support is added, in the form of a PPCISelDAGToDAG
DAG-preprocessing routine, that recognizes patterns close to what the
instruction computes (either exactly, or related by a constant masking
operation), and generates the cmpb instruction (along with any necessary
constant masking operation). This can be expanded if use cases arise.

Summary:
Currently, it supports generating, but not parsing, this expression.
Test added as well.

The VSX instruction definitions for lxsdx, lxvd2x, lxvdsx, and lxvw4x
incorrectly use the XForm_1 instruction format, rather than the
XX1Form instruction format. This is likely a pasto when creating
these instructions, which were based on lvx and so forth. This patch
uses the correct format.
The existing reformatting test (test/MC/PowerPC/vsx.s) missed this
because the two formats differ only in that XX1Form has an extension
to the target register field in bit 31. The tests for these
instructions used a target register of 7, so the default of 0 in bit
31 for XForm_1 didn't expose a problem. For register numbers 32-63
this would be noticeable. I've changed the test to use higher
register numbers to verify my change is effective.

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.
llvm-svn: 213487
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.

Currently, llvm always emits a DWARF CIE with a version of 1, even when emitting

newer CIE version when we are emitting DWARF 3 or 4. This will not reduce
compatibility, as we already emit other DWARF3/4 features, and is worth doing as
the DWARF3 spec removed some ambiguities in the interpretation of call frame
information.
It also fixes a minor bug where the "return address" field of the CIE was
encoded as a ULEB128, which is only valid when the CIE version is 3. There are
no test changes for this, because (as far as I can tell) none of the platforms

As a first step towards real little-endian code generation, this patch
changes the PowerPC MC layer to actually generate little-endian object
files. This involves passing the little-endian flag through the various
layers, including down to createELFObjectWriter so we actually get basic
little-endian ELF objects, emitting instructions in little-endian order,
and handling fixups and relocations as appropriate for little-endian.
The bulk of the patch is to update most test cases in test/MC/PowerPC
to verify both big- and little-endian encodings. (The only test cases
*not* updated are those that create actual big-endian ABI code, like
the TLS tests.)
Note that while the object files are now little-endian, the generated
code itself is not yet updated, in particular, it still does not adhere
to the ELFv2 ABI.

VSX is an ISA extension supported on the POWER7 and later cores that enhances
floating-point vector and scalar capabilities. Among other things, this adds
<2 x double> support and generally helps to reduce register pressure.
The interesting part of this ISA feature is the register configuration: there
are 64 new 128-bit vector registers, the 32 of which are super-registers of the
existing 32 scalar floating-point registers, and the second 32 of which overlap
with the 32 Altivec vector registers. This makes things like vector insertion
and extraction tricky: this can be free but only if we force a restriction to
the right register subclass when needed. A new "minipass" PPCVSXCopy takes care
of this (although it could do a more-optimal job of it; see the comment about
unnecessary copies below).
Please note that, currently, VSX is not enabled by default when targeting
anything because it is not yet ready for that. The assembler and disassembler
are fully implemented and tested. However:
- CodeGen support causes miscompiles; test-suite runtime failures:
MultiSource/Benchmarks/FreeBench/distray/distray
MultiSource/Benchmarks/McCat/08-main/main
MultiSource/Benchmarks/Olden/voronoi/voronoi

MultiSource/Benchmarks/tramp3d-v4/tramp3d-v4
SingleSource/Benchmarks/CoyoteBench/almabench
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc/matmul_f64_4x4
- The lowering currently falls back to using Altivec instructions far more
than it should. Worse, there are some things that are scalarized through the
stack that shouldn't be.
- A lot of unnecessary copies make it past the optimizers, and this needs to
be fixed.
- Many more regression tests are needed.
Normally, I'd fix these things prior to committing, but there are some
students and other contributors who would like to work this, and so it makes
sense to move this development process upstream where it can be subject to the
regular code-review procedures.

When asked to pad an irregular number of bytes, we should fill with
zeros. This is consistent with the behavior specified in the AIX
Assembler Language Reference as well as other LLVM and binutils
assemblers.
N.B. There is a small deviation from binutils' PPC assembler:
when handling pads which are greater than 4 bytes but not mod 4,
binutils will not emit any NOP sequences at all and only use zeros.
This may or may not be a bug but there is no excellent rationale as to
why that behavior is important to emulate. If that behavior is needed,
we can change writeNopData() to behave in the same way.
This fixes PR17352.

This was unfortunately incorrect, there is is fact another,
serious drawback to using the default VK_TLSLD/VK_TLSGD
variant kinds: using these causes ELFObjectWriter::RelocNeedsGOT
to return true, which in turn causes the ELFObjectWriter to emit
an undefined reference to _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_.
This is a problem on powerpc64, because it uses the TOC instead
of the GOT, and the linker does not provide _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_,
so the symbol remains undefined. This means shared libraries
using TLS built with the integrated assembler are currently
broken.
While the whole RelocNeedsGOT / _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ situation
probably ought to be properly fixed at some point, for now I'm
simply reverting the r185476 commit. Now this in turn exposes
the breakage of handling @tlsgd/@tlsld in the asm parser that
this check-in was originally intended to fix.
To avoid this regression, I'm also adding a different fix for
this problem: while common code now parses @tlsgd as VK_TLSGD,
a special hack in the asm parser translates this code to the
platform-specific VK_PPC_TLSGD that the back-end now expects.
While this is not really pretty, it's self-contained and
shouldn't hurt anything else for now. One the underlying
problem is fixed, this hack can be reverted again.

The PowerPC assembler is supposed to provide a directive .machine
that allows switching the supported CPU instruction set on the fly.
Since we do not yet check CPU feature sets at all and always accept

avoid spuriously rejecting existing assembler files that use this.

- provide a PPCAsmParser::validateTargetOperandClass routine to
recognize immediate literals (like ARM does)

When a target@got@tprel or target@got@tprel@l symbol variant is used in

since the corresponding R_PPC64_GOT_TPREL16 / R_PPC64_GOT_TPREL16_LO
relocation types do not exist.
However, since such symbol variants resolve to GOT offsets which are
always 4-aligned, we can simply instead use the _DS variants of the
relocation types, which *do* exist.
The same applies for the @got@dtprel variants.

This adds support for the last missing construct to parse TLS-related
assembler code:

The ADD8TLS currently hard-codes the @tls into the assembler string.
This cannot be handled by the asm parser, since @tls is parsed as
a symbol variant. This patch changes ADD8TLS to have the @tls suffix
printed as symbol variant on output too, which allows us to remove
the isCodeGenOnly marker from ADD8TLS. This in turn means that we
can add a AsmOperand to accept @tls marked symbols on input.
As a side effect, this means that the fixup_ppc_tlsreg fixup type
is no longer necessary and can be merged into fixup_ppc_nofixup.

Just as with mfocrf, it is also preferable to use mtocrf instead of
mtcrf when only a single CR register is to be written.
Current code however always emits mtcrf. This probably does not matter
when using an external assembler, since the GNU assembler will in fact
automatically replace mtcrf with mtocrf when possible. It does create
inefficient code with the integrated assembler, however.
To fix this, this patch adds MTOCRF/MTOCRF8 instruction patterns and
uses those instead of MTCRF/MTCRF8 everything. Just as done in the
MFOCRF patch committed as 185556, these patterns will be converted
back to MTCRF if MTOCRF is not available on the machine.
As a side effect, this allows to modify the MTCRF pattern to accept
the full range of mask operands for the benefit of the asm parser.

There are a couple of (small) related changes here:
1. The printed name of the VRSAVE register has been changed from VRsave to
vrsave in order to match the name accepted by GNU binutils.
2. Support for parsing vrsave has been added to the asm parser (it seems that
there was no test case specifically covering this code, so I've added one).
3. The list of Altivec registers, which was common to all calling conventions,
has been separated out. This allows us to define the base CSR lists, and then
lists for each ABI with Altivec included. This allows SjLj, for example, to
work correctly on non-Altivec targets without using unnatural definitions of
the NoRegs CSR list.
4. VRSAVE is now always reserved on non-Darwin targets and all Altivec
registers are reserved when Altivec is disabled.
With these changes, it is now possible to compile a function containing
__builtin_unwind_init() on Linux/PPC64 with debugging information. This did not
work previously because GNU binutils assumes that all .cfi_offset offsets will
be 8-byte aligned on PPC64 (and errors out if you provide a non-8-byte-aligned
offset). This is not true for the vrsave register, however, because this
register is used only on Darwin, GCC does not bother printing a .cfi_offset
entry for it (even though there is a slot in the stack frame for it as
specified by the ABI). This change allows us to do the same: we will also not
print .cfi_offset directives for vrsave.
