optimizations which are valid for position independent code being linked
into a single executable, but not for such code being linked into
a shared library.
I discussed the design of this with Eric Christopher, and the decision
was to support an optional bit rather than a completely separate
relocation model. Fundamentally, this is still PIC relocation, its just
that certain optimizations are only valid under a PIC relocation model
when the resulting code won't be in a shared library. The simplest path
to here is to expose a single bit option in the TargetOptions. If folks
have different/better designs, I'm all ears. =]
I've included the first optimization based upon this: changing TLS
models to the *Exec models when PIE is enabled. This is the LLVM
component of PR12380 and is all of the hard work.

in TargetLowering. There was already a FIXME about this location being
odd. The interface is simplified as a consequence. This will also make
it easier to change TLS models when compiling with PIE.

where a chain outside of the loop block-set ended up in the worklist for
scheduling as part of the contiguous loop. However, asserting the first
block in the chain is in the loop-set isn't a valid check -- we may be
forced to drag a chain into the worklist due to one block in the chain
being part of the loop even though the first block is *not* in the loop.
This occurs when we have been forced to form a chain early due to
un-analyzable branches.
No test case here as I have no idea how to even begin reducing one, and
it will be hopelessly fragile. We have to somehow end up with a loop
header of an inner loop which is a successor of a basic block with an
unanalyzable pair of branch instructions. Ow. Self-host triggers it so
it is unlikely it will regress.
This at least gets block placement back to passing selfhost and the test
suite. There are still a lot of slowdown that I don't like coming out of
block placement, although there are now also a lot of speedups. =[ I'm
seeing swings in both directions up to 10%. I'm going to try to find
time to dig into this and see if we can turn this on for 3.1 as it does
a really good job of cleaning up after some loops that degraded with the
inliner changes.

GEPs, bit casts, and stores reaching it but no other instructions. These
often show up during the iterative processing of the inliner, SROA, and
DCE. Once we hit this point, we can completely remove the alloca. These
were actually showing up in the final, fully optimized code in a bunch
of inliner tests I've been working on, and notably they show up after
LLVM finishes optimizing away all function calls involved in
hash_combine(a, b).

Previously we used three instructions to broadcast an immediate value into a
vector register.
On Sandybridge we continue to load the broadcasted value from the constant pool.

An MDNode has a list of MDNodeOperands allocated directly after it as part of
its allocation. Therefore, the Parent of the MDNodeOperands can be found by
walking back through the operands to the beginning of that list. Mark the first
operand's value pointer as being the 'first' operand so that we know where the
beginning of said list is.
This saves a *lot* of space during LTO with -O0 -g flags.

shuffle node because it could introduce new shuffle nodes that were not
supported efficiently by the target.
2. Add a more restrictive shuffle-of-shuffle optimization for cases where the
second shuffle reverses the transformation of the first shuffle.

reciprocal if converting to the reciprocal is exact. Do it even if inexact
if -ffast-math. This substantially speeds up ac.f90 from the polyhedron
benchmarks.

optimizers could do this for us, but expecting partial SROA of classes
with template methods through cloning is probably expecting too much
heroics. With this change, the begin/end pointer pairs which indicate
the status of each loop iteration are actually passed directly into each
layer of the combine_data calls, and the inliner has a chance to see
when most of the combine_data function could be deleted by inlining.
Similarly for 'length'.
We have to be careful to limit the places where in/out reference
parameters are used as those will also defeat the inliner / optimizers
from properly propagating constants.
With this change, LLVM is able to fully inline and unroll the hash
computation of small sets of values, such as two or three pointers.
These now decompose into essentially straight-line code with no loops or
function calls.
There is still one code quality problem to be solved with the hashing --
LLVM is failing to nuke the alloca. It removes all loads from the
alloca, leaving only lifetime intrinsics and dead(!!) stores to the
alloca. =/ Very unfortunate.

speculate. Without this, loop rotate (among many other places) would
suddenly stop working in the presence of debug info. I found this
looking at loop rotate, and have augmented its tests with a reduction
out of a very hot loop in yacr2 where failing to do this rotation costs
sometimes more than 10% in runtime performance, perturbing numerous
downstream optimizations.
This should have no impact on performance without debug info, but the
change in performance when debug info is enabled can be extreme. As
a consequence (and this how I got to this yak) any profiling of
performance problems should be treated with deep suspicion -- they may
have been wildly innacurate of debug info was enabled for profiling. =/
Just a heads up.

The tLDRr instruction with the last register operand set to the zero register
prints in assembly as if no register was specified, and the assembler encodes
it as a tLDRi instruction with a zero immediate. With the integrated assembler,
that zero register gets emitted as "r0", so we get "ldr rx, [ry, r0]" which
is broken. Emit the instruction as tLDRi with a zero immediate. I don't
know if there's a good way to write a testcase for this. Suggestions welcome.
Opportunities for follow-up work:
1) The asm printer should complain if a non-optional register operand is set
to the zero register, instead of silently dropping it.
2) The integrated assembler should complain in the same situation, instead of
silently emitting the operand as "r0".

Cygwin-1.7 supports dw2. Some recent mingw distros support one, too.
I have confirmed test-suite/SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout-C++/except.cpp can pass on Cygwin.

by default.
This is a behaviour configurable in the MCAsmInfo. I've decided to turn
it on by default in (possibly optimistic) hopes that most assemblers are
reasonably sane. If this proves a problem, switching to default seems
reasonable.
I'm not sure if this is the opportune place to test, but it seemed good
to make sure it was tested somewhere.

After register masks were introdruced to represent the call clobbers, it
is no longer necessary to have duplicate instruction for iOS.

disassembler requires a MCSubtargetInfo and a
MCInstrInfo to exist in order to initialize the
instruction printer and disassembler; however,
although the printer and disassembler keep
references to these objects they do not own them.
Previously, the MCSubtargetInfo and MCInstrInfo
objects were just leaked.
I have extended LLVMDisasmContext to own these
objects and delete them when it is destroyed.

simplification has been performed. This is a bit less efficient
(requires another ilist walk of the basic blocks) but shouldn't matter
in practice. More importantly, it's just too much work to keep track of
all the various ways the return instructions can be mutated while
simplifying them. This fixes yet another crasher, reported by Daniel
Dunbar.

dead code, including dead return instructions in some cases. Otherwise,
we end up having a bogus poniter to a return instruction that blows up
much further down the road.
It turns out that this pattern is both simpler to code, easier to update
in the face of enhancements to the inliner cleanup, and likely cheaper
given that it won't add dead instructions to the list.
Thanks to John Regehr's numerous test cases for teasing this out.

We had special instructions for iOS because r9 is call-clobbered, but
that is represented dynamically by the register mask operands now, so
there is no need for the pseudo-instructions.

The load/store optimizer splits LDRD/STRD into two instructions when the
register pairing doesn't work out. For negative offsets in Thumb2, it uses
t2STRi8 to do that. That's fine, except for the case when the offset is in
the range [-4,-1]. In that case, we'll also form a second t2STRi8 with
the original offset plus 4, resulting in a t2STRi8 with a non-negative
offset, which ends up as if it were an STRT, which is completely bogus.
Similarly for loads.
No testcase, unfortunately, as any I've been able to construct is both large
and extremely fragile.

The empty 1-argument operator delete is for the benefit of the
destructor. A couple of spot checks of running yaml-bench under
valgrind against a few of the files under test/YAMLParser did
not reveal any leaks introduced by this change.

Consider the following program:
$ cat main.c
void foo(void) { }
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
foo();
return 0;
}
$ cat bundle.c
extern void foo(void);
void bar(void) {
foo();
}
$ clang -o main main.c
$ clang -o bundle.so bundle.c -bundle -bundle_loader ./main
$ nm -m bundle.so
0000000000000f40 (__TEXT,__text) external _bar
(undefined) external _foo (from executable)
(undefined) external dyld_stub_binder (from libSystem)
$ clang -o main main.c -O4
$ clang -o bundle.so bundle.c -bundle -bundle_loader ./main
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
"_foo", referenced from:
_bar in bundle-elQN6d.o
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
The linker was told that the 'foo' in 'main' was 'internal' and had no uses, so
it was dead stripped.
Another situation is something like:
define void @foo() {
ret void
}
define void @bar() {
call asm volatile "call _foo" ...
ret void
}
The only use of 'foo' is inside of an inline ASM call. Since we don't look
inside those for uses of functions, we don't specify this as a "use."
Get around this by not invoking the 'internalize' pass by default. This is an
admitted hack for LTO correctness.

'add r2, #-1024' should just use 'sub r2, #1024' rather than erroring out.
