This version enhances the previous patch to add root initialization
as discussed here:
http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20070910/053455.html
Collector gives its subclasses control over generic algorithms:
unsigned NeededSafePoints; //< Bitmask of required safe points.
bool CustomReadBarriers; //< Default is to insert loads.
bool CustomWriteBarriers; //< Default is to insert stores.
bool CustomRoots; //< Default is to pass through to backend.
bool InitRoots; //< If set, roots are nulled during lowering.
It also has callbacks which collectors can hook:
/// If any of the actions are set to Custom, this is expected to
/// be overriden to create a transform to lower those actions to
/// LLVM IR.
virtual Pass *createCustomLoweringPass() const;
/// beginAssembly/finishAssembly - Emit module metadata as
/// assembly code.
virtual void beginAssembly(Module &M, std::ostream &OS,
AsmPrinter &AP,
const TargetAsmInfo &TAI) const;
virtual void finishAssembly(Module &M,
CollectorModuleMetadata &CMM,
std::ostream &OS, AsmPrinter &AP,
const TargetAsmInfo &TAI) const;
Various other independent algorithms could be implemented, but were
not necessary for the initial two collectors. Some examples are
listed here:

other than PPC64. Instead of fixing it, just remove it and fix all the
places that use it to use TargetData::getPointerSize() instead, as there
aren't very many. Most of the references were in DwarfWriter.cpp.

It includes:
- location and of each safe point in machine code (identified by a
label)
- location of each root within the stack frame (identified by an
offset), including the metadata tag provided to llvm.gcroot in
the user program
- size of the stack frame (for collectors which want to cheat on
stack crawling :)
- and eventually will include liveness
It is to be populated by back-ends during code-generation.
CollectorModuleMetadata aggregates this information across the
entire module.

instruction creation. No support yet for instruction introspection.
Also eliminated allocas from the Ocaml bindings for portability,
and avoided unnecessary casts.
llvm-svn: 42367
and time usage.
Fixup operator == to make this work, and add a resize method to DenseMap
so we can resize our hashtable once we know how big it should be.
llvm-svn: 42269
change is not useful in and of itself, but it lays the groundwork for combining
the dominator and postdominator implementations.
Also, factor a few methods that are common to DominatorTree and PostDominatorTree
into DominatorTreeBase. Again, this will make merging the two calculation methods
simpler in the future.
llvm-svn: 42248
keep f32 in SSE registers and f64 in x87. This
is effectively a new codegen mode.
Change addLegalFPImmediate to permit float and
double variants to do different things.
Adjust callers.
llvm-svn: 42246
bit width instead of number of words allocated, which
makes it actually work for int->APF conversions.
Adjust callers. Add const to one of the APInt constructors
to prevent surprising match when called with const
argument.
llvm-svn: 42210
returned a reference type. This patch allows operator*() to return a
non-reference type while still maintaining the old behavior when it
does return a reference type.
This patch was motivated when I tried to use "df_iterator" (see
llvm/ADT/DepthFirstIterator.h) as a "node_iterator", as df_iterator
does not return a reference type and thus we would get a compilation
error when trying to take the address of a temporary.

function. The information isn't used heavily -- it's only used at the end
of exception handling emission -- so there's no need to cache it.
llvm-svn: 42078
- The naming prefix is LLVM.
- All types are represented using opaque references.
- Functions are not named LLVM{Type}{Method}; the names became
unreadable goop. Instead, they are named LLVM{ImperativeSentence}.
- Where an attribute only appears once in the class hierarchy (e.g.,
linkage only applies to values; parameter types only apply to
function types), the class is omitted from identifiers for
brevity. Tastes like methods.
- Strings are C strings or string/length tuples on a case-by-case
basis.
- APIs which give the caller ownership of an object are not mapped
(removeFromParent, certain constructor overloads). This keeps
keep memory management as simple as possible.
For each library with bindings:
llvm-c/<LIB>.h - Declares the bindings.
lib/<LIB>/<LIB>.cpp - Implements the bindings.
So just link with the library of your choice and use the C header
instead of the C++ one.
