- The COFF backend doesn't support MingW/Cygwin at the moment, it'll report an
error, but it's still much better than random assertions from the MachO backend.
- We want to make ELF the default eventually, it's what the majority of targets use.

FP_REG_KILL instructions are still inserted, but can be disabled by passing
-live-x87 to llc. The X87FPRegKillInserterPass is going to be removed shortly.
CFG edges are partioned into bundles where the x87 stack must be allocated
identically. Code is insertad at the end of each basic block that shuffles the
live FP registers to match the outgoing bundles expectations.
This fix is in preparation for some upcoming register allocator improvements
that may extend the live range of registers beyond a basic block, similar to
LICM. It also provides a nice runtime speedup if you are building with
-mfpmath=387.

- Fix the PIC base register initialization so that it doesn't ever
fail to end up the top of the entry block.

Add a createObjectStreamer() factory method so that the correct object
file streamer can be instantiated for a given target triple.

When a frame pointer is not otherwise required, and dynamic stack alignment
is necessary solely due to the spilling of a register with larger alignment
requirements than the default stack alignment, the frame pointer can be both
used as a general purpose register and a frame pointer. That goes poorly, for
obvious reasons. This patch brings back a bit of old logic for identifying
the use of such registers and conservatively reserves the frame pointer
during register allocation in such cases.
For now, implement for X86 only since it's 32-bit linux which is hitting this,
and we want a targeted fix for 2.7. As a follow-on, this will be expanded
to handle other targets, as theoretically the problem could arise elsewhere
as well.

On Nehalem and newer CPUs there is a 2 cycle latency penalty on using a register
in a different domain than where it was defined. Some instructions have
equvivalents for different domains, like por/orps/orpd.
The SSEDomainFix pass tries to minimize the number of domain crossings by
changing between equvivalent opcodes where possible.
This is a work in progress, in particular the pass doesn't do anything yet. SSE
instructions are tagged with their execution domain in TableGen using the last
two bits of TSFlags. Note that not all instructions are tagged correctly. Life
just isn't that simple.
The SSE execution domain issue is very similar to the ARM NEON/VFP pipeline
issue handled by NEONMoveFixPass. This pass may become target independent to
handle both.

This is work in progress. So far, SSE execution domain tables are added to
X86InstrInfo, and a skeleton pass is enabled with -sse-domain-fix.

only run for x86 with fastisel. I've found it being very effective in
eliminating some obvious dead code as result of formal parameter lowering
especially when tail call optimization eliminated the need for some of the loads
from fixed frame objects. It also shrinks a number of the tests. A couple of
tests no longer make sense and are now eliminated.

function can support dynamic stack realignment. That's a much easier question
to answer at instruction selection stage than whether the function actually
will have dynamic alignment prologue. This allows the removal of the
stack alignment heuristic pass, and improves code quality for cases where
the heuristic would result in dynamic alignment code being generated when
it was not strictly necessary.

idea, but unfortunately necessary.
- Default to using 4-bytes for the LSDA pointer encoding to agree with the
encoded value in the CIE.
llvm-svn: 93753
The CIE says that the LSDA point in the FDE section is an "sdata4". That's fine,
but we need it to actually be 4-bytes in the FDE for some platforms. Allow
individual platforms to decide for themselves.

incarnations), integrated into the MC framework.
The disassembler is table-driven, using a custom TableGen backend to
generate hierarchical tables optimized for fast decode. The disassembler
consumes MemoryObjects and produces arrays of MCInsts, adhering to the
abstract base class MCDisassembler (llvm/MC/MCDisassembler.h).
The disassembler is documented in detail in
- lib/Target/X86/Disassembler/X86Disassembler.cpp (disassembler runtime)
- utils/TableGen/DisassemblerEmitter.cpp (table emitter)
You can test the disassembler by running llvm-mc -disassemble for i386
or x86_64 targets. Please let me know if you encounter any problems
with it.

The large code model is documented at
http://www.x86-64.org/documentation/abi.pdf and says that calls should
assume their target doesn't live within the 32-bit pc-relative offset
that fits in the call instruction.
To do this, we turn off the global-address->target-global-address
conversion in X86TargetLowering::LowerCall(). The first attempt at
this broke the lazy JIT because it can separate the movabs(imm->reg)
from the actual call instruction. The lazy JIT receives the address of
the movabs as a relocation and needs to record the return address from
the call; and then when that call happens, it needs to patch the
movabs with the newly-compiled target. We could thread the call
instruction into the relocation and record the movabs<->call mapping
explicitly, but that seems to require at least as much new
complication in the code generator as this change.
To fix this, we make lazy functions _always_ go through a call
stub. You'd think we'd only have to force lazy calls through a stub on
difficult platforms, but that turns out to break indirect calls
through a function pointer. The right fix for that is to distinguish
between calls and address-of operations on uncompiled functions, but
that's complex enough to leave for someone else to do.
Another attempt at this defined a new CALL64i pseudo-instruction,
which expanded to a 2-instruction sequence in the assembly output and
was special-cased in the X86CodeEmitter's emitInstruction()
function. That broke indirect calls in the same way as above.
This patch also removes a hack forcing Darwin to the small code model.
Without far-call-stubs, the small code model requires things of the
JITMemoryManager that the DefaultJITMemoryManager can't provide.
Thanks to echristo for lots of testing!
