This changes the ABI used on 32-bit x86 for passing vector arguments.
Historically, clang passes the first 4 vector arguments in-register, and additional vector arguments on the stack, regardless of platform. That is different from the behavior of gcc, icc, and msvc, all of which pass only the first 3 arguments in-register.
The 3-register convention is documented, unofficially, in Agner's calling convention guide, and, officially, in the recently released version 1.0 of the i386 psABI.
Darwin is kept as is because the OS X ABI Function Call Guide explicitly documents the current (4-register) behavior.
This fixes PR21510

i1 type is a legal type on AVX-512 and can be passed as parameter or return value.
i1 is promoted to i8 on return and to i32 for call arguments (i8 is also promoted to i32 here).
The result code is similar to the previous X86 targets, where i1 is allways promoted to i8.

This is a Microsoft calling convention that supports both x86 and x86_64
subtargets. It passes vector and floating point arguments in XMM0-XMM5,
and passes them indirectly once they are consumed.
Homogenous vector aggregates of up to four elements can be passed in
sequential vector registers, but this part is not implemented in LLVM
and will be handled in Clang.
On 32-bit x86, it is similar to fastcall in that it uses ecx:edx as
integer register parameters and is callee cleanup. On x86_64, it
delegates to the normal win64 calling convention.

Stop using ST registers for function returns and inline-asm instructions and use
FP registers instead. This allows removing a large amount of code in the
stackifier pass that was needed to track register liveness and handle copies
between ST and FP registers and function calls returning floating point values.
It also fixes a bug which manifests when an ST register defined by an
inline-asm instruction was live across another inline-asm instruction, as shown
in the following sequence of machine instructions:
1. INLINEASM <es:frndint> $0:[regdef], %ST0<imp-def,tied5>
2. INLINEASM <es:fldcw $0>
3. %FP0<def> = COPY %ST0

This reverts commit r200561.
This calling convention was an attempt to match the MSVC C++ ABI for
methods that return structures by value. This solution didn't scale,
because it would have required splitting every CC available on Windows
into two: one for methods and one for free functions.
Now that we can put sret on the second arg (r208453), and Clang does
that (r208458), revert this hack.
llvm-svn: 208459
MSVC always places the 'this' parameter for a method first. The
implicit 'sret' pointer for methods always comes second. We already
implement this for __thiscall by putting sret parameters on the stack,
but __cdecl methods require putting both parameters on the stack in
opposite order.
Using a special calling convention allows frontends to keep the sret
parameter first, which avoids breaking lots of assumptions in LLVM and
Clang.
Fixes PR15768 with the corresponding change in Clang.

This patch adds two new target-independent calling conventions for runtime
calls - PreserveMost and PreserveAll.
The target-specific implementation for X86-64 is defined as following:
- Arguments are passed as for the default C calling convention
- The same applies for the return value(s)
- PreserveMost preserves all GPRs - except R11
- PreserveAll preserves all GPRs and all XMMs/YMMs - except R11

Unlike msvc, when handling a thiscall + sret gcc will
* Put the sret in %ecx
* Put the this pointer is (%esp)
This fixes, for example, calling stringstream::str.

The idea of the AnyReg Calling Convention is to provide the call arguments in
registers, but not to force them to be placed in a paticular order into a
specified set of registers. Instead it is up tp the register allocator to assign
any register as it sees fit. The same applies to the return value (if
applicable).

Summary:
This patch adds explicit calling convention types for the Win64 and
System V/x86-64 ABIs. This allows code to override the default, and use
the Win64 convention on a target that wants to use SysV (and
vice-versa). This is needed to implement the `ms_abi` and `sysv_abi` GNU
attributes.

hurt to support it in the standard conventions as well.
In cases where we can cheat at the calling convention, this allows us to avoid returning
things through memory in more cases.

The x86_mmx type is used for MMX intrinsics, parameters and
return values where these use MMX registers, and is also
supported in load, store, and bitcast.
Only the above operations generate MMX instructions, and optimizations
do not operate on or produce MMX intrinsics.
MMX-sized vectors <2 x i32> etc. are lowered to XMM or split into
smaller pieces. Optimizations may occur on these forms and the
result casted back to x86_mmx, provided the result feeds into a
previous existing x86_mmx operation.
The point of all this is prevent optimizations from introducing
MMX operations, which is unsafe due to the EMMS problem.
