This patch introduces the following changes to the DispatchStatistics view:
* DispatchStatistics now reports the number of dispatched opcodes instead of
the number of dispatched instructions.
* The "Dynamic Dispatch Stall Cycles" table now also reports the percentage of
stall cycles against the total simulated cycles.
This change allows users to easily compare dispatch group sizes with the
processor DispatchWidth.
Before this change, it was difficult to correlate the two numbers, since
DispatchStatistics view reported numbers of instructions (instead of opcodes).
DispatchWidth defines the maximum size of a dispatch group in terms of number of
micro opcodes.
The other change introduced by this patch is related to how DispatchStage
generates "instruction dispatch" events.
In particular:
* There can be multiple dispatch events associated with a same instruction
* Each dispatch event now encapsulates the number of dispatched micro opcodes.
The number of micro opcodes declared by an instruction may exceed the processor
DispatchWidth. Therefore, we cannot assume that instructions are always fully
dispatched in a single cycle.
DispatchStage knows already how to handle instructions declaring a number of
opcodes bigger that DispatchWidth. However, DispatchStage always emitted a
single instruction dispatch event (during the first simulated dispatch cycle)
for instructions dispatched.
With this patch, DispatchStage now correctly notifies multiple dispatch events
for instructions that cannot be dispatched in a single cycle.
A few views had to be modified. Views can no longer assume that there can only
be one dispatch event per instruction.
Tests (and docs) have been updated.

This patch adds two new fields to the perf report generated by the SummaryView.
Fields are now logically organized into two small groups; only the second group
contains throughput indicators.
Example:
```
Iterations: 100
Instructions: 300
Total Cycles: 414
Total uOps: 700
Dispatch Width: 4
uOps Per Cycle: 1.69
IPC: 0.72
Block RThroughput: 4.0
```
This patch also updates the docs for llvm-mca.
Due to the nature of this change, several tests in the tools/llvm-mca directory
were affected, and had to be updated using script `update_mca_test_checks.py`.

Before this patch, the SchedulerStatistics only printed the maximum number of
buffer entries consumed in each scheduler's queue at a given point of the
simulation.
This patch restructures the reported table, and adds an extra field named
"Average number of used buffer entries" to it.
This patch also uses different colors to help identifying bottlenecks caused by
high scheduler's buffer pressure.

This adds the plumbing for the Tiny code model for the AArch64 backend. This,
instead of loading addresses through the normal ADRP;ADD pair used in the Small
model, uses a single ADR. The 21 bit range of an ADR means that the code and
its statically defined symbols need to be within 1MB of each other.
This makes it mostly interesting for embedded applications where we want to fit
as much as we can in as small a space as possible.

We don't need to use a map to model the wait/ready/issued sets. It is much more

This patch gives us an average 7.5% speedup (on top of the ~12% speedup obtained

This patch replaces all the remaining occurrences of string "MCA" with
":program:`llvm-mca`". Somehow I missed those strings when I committed r338394.
This patch also improves section "Instruction Dispatch".

Summary:
This patch mostly copies the existing Instruction Flow, and stage descriptions
from the mca README. I made a few text tweaks, but no semantic changes,
and made reference to the "default pipeline." I also removed the internals
references (e.g., reference to class names and header files). I did leave the
LSUnit name around, but only as an abbreviated word for the load-store unit.

This patch introduces a brief description of the components of MCA. The main
focus is on Views. This is a work in progress, and more descriptions will be
introduced later. I want to flesh-out the Views section more and provide a
detailed description of eventing in MCA. Eventually a brief code example of a
View should accompany the description.
Also, we should consider moving the MCA internals guide elsewhere at some point.

-vv additionally prints info that might be noise to users but that can
be helpful to FileCheck developers.
To maximize code reuse and to make diagnostics more consistent, this
patch also adjusts and extends some of the existing diagnostics.
CHECK-NOT failures now report variables uses. Many more diagnostics
now report the check prefix and kind of directive.

That is, make CHECK-DAG skip matches that overlap the matches of any
preceding consecutive CHECK-DAG directives. This change makes
CHECK-DAG more consistent with other directives, and there is evidence
it makes CHECK-DAG more intuitive and less error-prone. See the RFC
discussion starting at:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2018-May/123010.html
Moreover, this behavior enables CHECK-DAG groups for unordered,
non-unique strings or patterns. For example, it is useful for
verifying output or logs from a parallel program, such as the OpenMP
runtime.
This patch also implements the command-line option
-allow-deprecated-dag-overlap, which reverts CHECK-DAG to the old
overlapping behavior. This option should not be used in new tests.
It is meant only for the existing tests that are broken by this change
and that need time to update.
See the following bugzilla issue for tracking of such tests:

The aim of this backend is to output everything TableGen knows about
the record set, similarly to the default -print-records backend. But
where -print-records produces output in TableGen's input syntax
(convenient for humans to read), this backend produces it as
structured JSON data, which is convenient for loading into standard
scripting languages such as Python, in order to extract information
from the data set in an automated way.
The output data contains a JSON representation of the variable
definitions in output 'def' records, and a few pieces of metadata such
as which of those definitions are tagged with the 'field' prefix and
which defs are derived from which classes. It doesn't dump out
absolutely every piece of knowledge it _could_ produce, such as type
information and complicated arithmetic operator nodes in abstract
superclasses; the main aim is to allow consumers of this JSON dump to
essentially act as new backends, and backends don't generally need to
depend on that kind of data.
The new backend is implemented as an EmitJSON() function similar to
all of llvm-tblgen's other EmitFoo functions, except that it lives in
lib/TableGen instead of utils/TableGen on the basis that I'm expecting
to add it to clang-tblgen too in a future patch.
To test it, I've written a Python script that loads the JSON output
and tests properties of it based on comments in the .td source - more
or less like FileCheck, except that the CHECK: lines have Python
expressions after them instead of textual pattern matches.

Prior to this change, there was no clean way of getting FileCheck to
check that a line is completely empty. The expected way of using
"CHECK: {{^$}}" does not work because the '^' matches the end of the
previous match (this behaviour may be desirable in certain instances).
For the same reason, "CHECK-NEXT: {{^$}}" will fail when the previous
match was at the end of the line, as the pattern will match there.
Using the recommended [[:space:]] to match an explicit new line could
also match a space, and thus is not always desired. Literal '\n'
matches also do not work. A workaround was suggested in the review, but
it is a little clunky.
This change adds a new directive that behaves the same as CHECK-NEXT,
except that it only matches against empty lines (nothing, not even
whitespace, is allowed). As with CHECK-NEXT, it will fail if more than
one newline occurs before the next blank line. Example usage:
; test.txt
foo
bar
; CHECK: foo
; CHECK-EMPTY:
; CHECK-NEXT: bar

- git diff -U0 master | ../clang/tools/clang-format/clang-format-diff.py -i -p1 -style LLVM
- Manual change to APInt
- Manually chage DOCS as regex doesn't match it.
