080cb64e9c In visitSTORE, always use FindBetterChain, rather than only when UseAA is enabled.
Simplify Consecutive Merge Store Candidate Search

  Now that address aliasing is much less conservative, push through
  simplified store merging search which only checks for parallel stores
  through the chain subgraph. This is cleaner as the separation of
  non-interfering loads/stores from the store-merging logic.

  Whem merging stores, search up the chain through a single load, and
  finds all possible stores by looking down from through a load and a
  TokenFactor to all stores visited. This improves the quality of the
  output SelectionDAG and generally the output CodeGen (with some
  exceptions).

  Additional Minor Changes:

    1. Finishes removing unused AliasLoad code
    2. Unifies the the chain aggregation in the merged stores across
       code paths
    3. Re-add the Store node to the worklist after calling
       SimplifyDemandedBits.
    4. Increase GatherAllAliasesMaxDepth from 6 to 18. That number is
       arbitrary, but seemed sufficient to not cause regressions in
       tests.

  This finishes the change Matt Arsenault started in r246307 and
  jyknight's original patch.

  Many tests required some changes as memory operations are now
  reorderable. Some tests relying on the order were changed to use
  volatile memory operations

  Noteworthy tests:

    CodeGen/AArch64/argument-blocks.ll -
      It's not entirely clear what the test_varargs_stackalign test is
      supposed to be asserting, but the new code looks right.

    CodeGen/AArch64/arm64-memset-inline.lli -
    CodeGen/AArch64/arm64-stur.ll -
    CodeGen/ARM/memset-inline.ll -
      The backend now generates *worse* code due to store merging
      succeeding, as we do do a 16-byte constant-zero store efficiently.

    CodeGen/AArch64/merge-store.ll -
      Improved, but there still seems to be an extraneous vector insert
      from an element to itself?

    CodeGen/PowerPC/ppc64-align-long-double.ll -
      Worse code emitted in this case, due to the improved store->load
      forwarding.

    CodeGen/X86/dag-merge-fast-accesses.ll -
    CodeGen/X86/MergeConsecutiveStores.ll -
    CodeGen/X86/stores-merging.ll -
    CodeGen/Mips/load-store-left-right.ll -
      Restored correct merging of non-aligned stores

    CodeGen/AMDGPU/promote-alloca-stored-pointer-value.ll -
      Improved. Correctly merges buffer_store_dword calls

    CodeGen/AMDGPU/si-triv-disjoint-mem-access.ll -
      Improved. Sidesteps loading a stored value and merges two stores

    CodeGen/X86/pr18023.ll -
      This test has been removed, as it was asserting incorrect
      behavior. Non-volatile stores *CAN* be moved past volatile loads,
      and now are.

    CodeGen/X86/vector-idiv.ll -
    CodeGen/X86/vector-lzcnt-128.ll -
      It's basically impossible to tell what these tests are actually
      testing. But, looks like the code got better due to the memory
      operations being recognized as non-aliasing.

    CodeGen/X86/win32-eh.ll -
      Both loads of the securitycookie are now merged.

    CodeGen/AMDGPU/vgpr-spill-emergency-stack-slot-compute.ll -
      This test appears to work but no longer exhibits the spill
      behavior.

8761d9ca19 [llc] New diagnostic handler
Without a diagnostic handler installed, llc's behaviour is to exit on the first
error that it encounters. This is very different from the behaviour of clang
and other front ends, which try to gather as many errors as possible before
exiting.

This commit adds a diagnostic handler to llc, allowing it to find and report
more than one error. The old behaviour is preserved under a flag (-exit-on-error).

Some of the tests fail with the new diagnostic handler, so they have to use the
new flag in order to run under the previous behaviour. Some of these are known
bugs, others need further investigation. Ideally, we should fix the tests and
remove the flag at some point in the future.

Reapplied after fixing the LLDB build that was broken due to the new
DiagnosticSeverity in LLVMContext.h, and fixed an UB in the new change.

aca4c5cdc6 Change memcpy/memset/memmove to have dest and source alignments.
Note, this was reviewed (and more details are in) http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20151109/312083.html

These intrinsics currently have an explicit alignment argument which is
required to be a constant integer.  It represents the alignment of the
source and dest, and so must be the minimum of those.

This change allows source and dest to each have their own alignments
by using the alignment attribute on their arguments.  The alignment
argument itself is removed.

There are a few places in the code for which the code needs to be
checked by an expert as to whether using only src/dest alignment is
safe.  For those places, they currently take the minimum of src/dest
alignments which matches the current behaviour.

For example, code which used to read:
  call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* %dest, i8* %src, i32 500, i32 8, i1 false)
will now read:
  call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* align 8 %dest, i8* align 8 %src, i32 500, i1 false)

For out of tree owners, I was able to strip alignment from calls using sed by replacing:
  (call.*llvm\.memset.*)i32\ [0-9]*\,\ i1 false\)
with:
  $1i1 false)

and similarly for memmove and memcpy.

I then added back in alignment to test cases which needed it.

A similar commit will be made to clang which actually has many differences in alignment as now
IRBuilder can generate different source/dest alignments on calls.

In IRBuilder itself, a new argument was added.  Instead of calling:
  CreateMemCpy(Dst, Src, getInt64(Size), DstAlign, /* isVolatile */ false)
you now call
  CreateMemCpy(Dst, Src, getInt64(Size), DstAlign, SrcAlign, /* isVolatile */ false)

There is a temporary class (IntegerAlignment) which takes the source alignment and rejects
implicit conversion from bool.  This is to prevent isVolatile here from passing its default
parameter to the source alignment.

Note, changes in future can now be made to codegen.  I didn't change anything here, but this
change should enable better memcpy code sequences.

3ee3e60f77 Use TargetRegisterInfo for printing MachineOperand register comments
Several places in AsmPrinter.cpp print comments describing MachineOperand
registers using MCRegisterInfo, which uses MCOperand-oriented names. This
doesn't work for targets that use virtual registers exclusively, as
WebAssembly does, since virtual registers are represented and printed
differently.

This patch preserves what seems to be the spirit of r229978, avoiding the
use of TM.getSubtargetImpl(), while still using MachineOperand-oriented
printing for MachineOperands.

extern void test1(char *);
int test() {

For key.name, the llc/bpf may generate the below code:
  R1 = R10  // R10 is the frame pointer
  R1 += -24 // framepointer adjustment
  R1 |= 4   // R1 is then used as the first parameter of test1
OR operation is not recognized by in-kernel verifier.

This patch introduces an intermediate FI_ri instruction and

dfadb4e9ee [opaque pointer type] Add textual IR support for explicit type parameter to the call instruction
See r230786 and r230794 for similar changes to gep and load
respectively.

Call is a bit different because it often doesn't have a single explicit
type - usually the type is deduced from the arguments, and just the
return type is explicit. In those cases there's no need to change the
IR.

When that's not the case, the IR usually contains the pointer type of
the first operand - but since typed pointers are going away, that
representation is insufficient so I'm just stripping the "pointerness"
of the explicit type away.

This does make the IR a bit weird - it /sort of/ reads like the type of
the first operand: "call void () %x(" but %x is actually of type "void
()*" and will eventually be just of type "ptr". But this seems not too
bad and I don't think it would benefit from repeating the type
("void (), void () * %x(" and then eventually "void (), ptr %x(") as has
been done with gep and load.

This also has a side benefit: since the explicit type is no longer a
pointer, there's no ambiguity between an explicit type and a function
that returns a function pointer. Previously this case needed an explicit
type (eg: a function returning a void() function was written as
"call void () () * @x(" rather than "call void () * @x(" because of the
ambiguity between a function returning a pointer to a void() function
and a function returning void).

No ambiguity means even function pointer return types can just be
written alone, without writing the whole function's type.

This leaves /only/ the varargs case where the explicit type is required.

Given the special type syntax in call instructions, the regex-fu used
for migration was a bit more involved in its own unique way (as every
one of these is) so here it is. Use it in conjunction with the apply.sh
script and associated find/xargs commands I've provided in rr230786 to
migrate your out of tree tests. Do let me know if any of this doesn't
cover your cases & we can iterate on a more general script/regexes to
help others with out of tree tests.

About 9 test cases couldn't be automatically migrated - half of those
were functions returning function pointers, where I just had to manually
delete the function argument types now that we didn't need an explicit
function type there. The other half were typedefs of function types used
in calls - just had to manually drop the * from those.

0d99339102 [opaque pointer type] Add textual IR support for explicit type parameter to getelementptr instruction
One of several parallel first steps to remove the target type of pointers,
replacing them with a single opaque pointer type.

This adds an explicit type parameter to the gep instruction so that when the
first parameter becomes an opaque pointer type, the type to gep through is
still available to the instructions.

* This doesn't modify gep operators, only instructions (operators will be
  handled separately)

* Textual IR changes only. Bitcode (including upgrade) and changing the
  in-memory representation will be in separate changes.

* geps of vectors are transformed as:
    getelementptr <4 x float*> %x, ...
  ->getelementptr float, <4 x float*> %x, ...
  Then, once the opaque pointer type is introduced, this will ultimately look
  like:
    getelementptr float, <4 x ptr> %x
  with the unambiguous interpretation that it is a vector of pointers to float.

* address spaces remain on the pointer, not the type:
    getelementptr float addrspace(1)* %x
  ->getelementptr float, float addrspace(1)* %x
  Then, eventually:
    getelementptr float, ptr addrspace(1) %x

Importantly, the massive amount of test case churn has been automated by
same crappy python code. I had to manually update a few test cases that
wouldn't fit the script's model (r228970,r229196,r229197,r229198). The
python script just massages stdin and writes the result to stdout, I
then wrapped that in a shell script to handle replacing files, then
using the usual find+xargs to migrate all the files.

  python3 `dirname "$0"`/update.py < "$name" > "$name.tmp" && mv "$name.tmp" "$name"
  rm -f "$name.tmp"
done

The actual commands:
From llvm/src:
find test/ -name *.ll | xargs ./apply.sh
From llvm/src/tools/clang:
find test/ -name *.mm -o -name *.m -o -name *.cpp -o -name *.c | xargs -I '{}' ../../apply.sh "{}"
From llvm/src/tools/polly:
find test/ -name *.ll | xargs ./apply.sh

After that, check-all (with llvm, clang, clang-tools-extra, lld,
compiler-rt, and polly all checked out).

The extra 'rm' in the apply.sh script is due to a few files in clang's test
suite using interesting unicode stuff that my python script was throwing
exceptions on. None of those files needed to be migrated, so it seemed
sufficient to ignore those cases.

V1 cover letter:
---------------------
recently linux gained "universal in-kernel virtual machine" which is called
eBPF or extended BPF. The name comes from "Berkeley Packet Filter", since
new instruction set is based on it.
This patch adds a new backend that emits extended BPF instruction set.

The concept and development are covered by the following articles:
http://lwn.net/Articles/599755/
http://lwn.net/Articles/575531/
http://lwn.net/Articles/603983/
http://lwn.net/Articles/606089/
http://lwn.net/Articles/612878/

One of use cases: dtrace/systemtap alternative.

instruction set description and differences vs classic BPF:
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/networking/filter.txt

Short summary of instruction set:
- 64-bit registers
  R0      - return value from in-kernel function, and exit value for BPF program
  R1 - R5 - arguments from BPF program to in-kernel function
  R6 - R9 - callee saved registers that in-kernel function will preserve
  R10     - read-only frame pointer to access stack
- two-operand instructions like +, -, *, mov, load/store
- implicit prologue/epilogue (invisible stack pointer)
- no floating point, no simd

Short history of extended BPF in kernel:
interpreter in 3.15, x64 JIT in 3.16, arm64 JIT, verifier, bpf syscall in 3.18, more to come in the future.

It's a very small and simple backend.
There is no support for global variables, arbitrary function calls, floating point, varargs,
exceptions, indirect jumps, arbitrary pointer arithmetic, alloca, etc.
From C front-end point of view it's very restricted. It's done on purpose, since kernel
rejects all programs that it cannot prove safe. It rejects programs with loops
and with memory accesses via arbitrary pointers. When kernel accepts the program it is
guaranteed that program will terminate and will not crash the kernel.

This patch implements all 'must have' bits. There are several things on TODO list,
so this is not the end of development.
Most of the code is a boiler plate code, copy-pasted from other backends.
Only odd things are lack or < and <= instructions, specialized load_byte intrinsics
and 'compare and goto' as single instruction.
Current instruction set is fixed, but more instructions can be added in the future.
