f9ccef34dc [X86] Enable -mprefer-vector-width=256 by default for Skylake-avx512 and later Intel CPUs.
AVX512 instructions can cause a frequency drop on these CPUs. This
can negate the performance gains from using wider vectors. Enabling
prefer-vector-width=256 will prevent generation of zmm registers
unless explicit 512 bit operations are used in the original source
code.

I believe gcc and icc both do something similar to this by default.

d97bf0b804 [SelectionDAG] Remove ISD::FP_ROUND_INREG
I don't think anything in tree creates this node. So all of this
code appears to be dead.

6ffec5c24c Revert r370454 "[LoopIdiomRecognize] BCmp loop idiom recognition"
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43206 was filed,
claiming that there is a miscompilation.
Reverting until i investigate.

44eac5c3b3 [X86] Pass v32i16/v64i8 in zmm registers on KNL target.
gcc and icc pass these types in zmm registers in zmm registers.

This patch implements a quick hack to override the register
type before calling convention handling to one that is legal.
Longer term we might want to do something similar to 256-bit
integer registers on AVX1 where we just split all the operations.

Fixes PR42957

a54fd9866f [LoopIdiomRecognize] BCmp loop idiom recognition
Summary:
@mclow.lists brought up this issue up in IRC.
It is a reasonably common problem to compare some two values for equality.
Those may be just some integers, strings or arrays of integers.

In C, there is `memcmp()`, `bcmp()` functions.
In C++, there exists `std::equal()` algorithm.
One can also write that function manually.

libstdc++'s `std::equal()` is specialized to directly call `memcmp()` for
various types, but not `std::byte` from C++2a. https://godbolt.org/z/mx2ejJ

libc++ does not do anything like that, it simply relies on simple C++'s
`operator==()`. https://godbolt.org/z/er0Zwf (GOOD!)

So likely, there exists a certain performance opportunities.
Let's compare performance of naive `std::equal()` (no `memcmp()`) with one that
is using `memcmp()` (in this case, compiled with modified compiler). {F8768213}

What can we tell from the benchmark?
* Performance of naive equality check somewhat improves with element size,
  maxing out at eltcnt/sec=1.58603G/s for uint16_t, or bytes_read/sec=19.0209G/s
  for uint64_t. I think, that instability implies performance problems.
* Performance of `memcmp()`-aware benchmark always maxes out at around
  bytes_read/sec=51.2991G/s for every type. That is 2.6x the throughput of the
  naive variant!
* eltcnt/sec metric for the `memcmp()`-aware benchmark maxes out at
  eltcnt/sec=27.541G/s for uint8_t (was: eltcnt/sec=1.18491G/s, so 24x) and
  linearly decreases with element size.
  For uint64_t, it's ~4x+ the elements/second.
* The call obvious is more pricey than the loop, with small element count.
  As it can be seen from the full output {F8768210}, the `memcmp()` is almost
  universally worse, independent of the element size (and thus buffer size) when
  element count is less than 8.

So all in all, bcmp idiom does indeed pose untapped performance headroom.
This diff does implement said idiom recognition. I think a reasonable test
coverage is present, but do tell if there is anything obvious missing.

Now, quality. This does succeed to build and pass the test-suite, at least
without any non-bundled elements. {F8768216} {F8768217}

I don't have timings though.

And now to the code. The basic idea is to completely replace the whole loop.
If we can't fully kill it, don't transform.
I have left one or two comments in the code, so hopefully it can be understood.

Also, there is a few TODO's that i have left for follow-ups:
* widening of `memcmp()`/`bcmp()`
* step smaller than the comparison size
* Metadata propagation
* more than two blocks as long as there is still a single backedge?
* ???

42e839cbcd Reapply: IR: add optional type to 'byval' function parameters
When we switch to opaque pointer types we will need some way to describe
how many bytes a 'byval' parameter should occupy on the stack. This adds
a (for now) optional extra type parameter.

If present, the type must match the pointee type of the argument.

The original commit did not remap byval types when linking modules, which broke
LTO. This version fixes that.

Note to front-end maintainers: if this causes test failures, it's probably
because the "byval" attribute is printed after attributes without any parameter
after this change.

For the textual format, this patch migrates the existing 2-field form to

test/Verifier/global-ctors-2.ll checks we have a friendly error message.

For bitcode, lib/IR/AutoUpgrade UpgradeGlobalVariables will upgrade the
2-field form (add i8* null as the third field).

01d726ce5c IR: Add immarg attribute
This indicates an intrinsic parameter is required to be a constant,
and should not be replaced with a non-constant value.

Add the attribute to all AMDGPU and generic intrinsics that comments
indicate it should apply to. I scanned other target intrinsics, but I
don't see any obvious comments indicating which arguments are intended
to be only immediates.

This breaks one questionable testcase for the autoupgrade. I'm unclear
on whether the autoupgrade is supposed to really handle declarations
which were never valid. The verifier fails because the attributes now
refer to a parameter past the end of the argument list.

4f713f8431 [SelectionDAG] Allow the user to specify a memeq function.
Summary:
Right now, when we encounter a string equality check,
e.g. `if (memcmp(a, b, s) == 0)`, we try to expand to a comparison if `s` is a
small compile-time constant, and fall back on calling `memcmp()` else.

This is sub-optimal because memcmp has to compute much more than
equality.

This patch replaces `memcmp(a, b, s) == 0` by `bcmp(a, b, s) == 0` on platforms
that support `bcmp`.

`bcmp` can be made much more efficient than `memcmp` because equality
compare is trivially parallel while lexicographic ordering has a chain
dependency.

Summary:
lcov tracefiles are used by various coverage reporting tools and build
systems (e.g., Bazel). It is a simple text-based format to parse and
more convenient to use than the JSON export format, which needs
additional processing to map regions/segments back to line numbers.

It's a little unfortunate that "text" format is now overloaded to refer
specifically to JSON for export, but I wanted to avoid making any
breaking changes to the UI of the llvm-cov tool at this time.

093a966fb5 [DAGCombine] (float)((int) f) --> ftrunc (PR36617)
This was originally committed at rL328921 and reverted at rL329920 to
investigate failures in Chrome. This time I've added to the ReleaseNotes
to warn users of the potential of exposing UB and let me repeat that
here for more exposure:

  Optimization of floating-point casts is improved. This may cause surprising
  results for code that is relying on undefined behavior. Code sanitizers can
  be used to detect affected patterns such as this:

    int main() {
      float x = 4294967296.0f;
      x = (float)((int)x);
      printf("junk in the ftrunc: %f\n", x);
      return 0;
    }

    $ clang -O1 ftrunc.c -fsanitize=undefined ; ./a.out
    ftrunc.c:5:15: runtime error: 4.29497e+09 is outside the range of 
                   representable values of type 'int'
    junk in the ftrunc: 0.000000


Original commit message:

fptosi / fptoui round towards zero, and that's the same behavior as ISD::FTRUNC,
so replace a pair of casts with the equivalent node. We don't have to account for
special cases (NaN, INF) because out-of-range casts are undefined.

62d459ae3c Rename llvm library from libLLVM-X.Y to libLLVM-X
Summary:
As we are only doing X.0.Z releases (not using the minor version), there is no need to keep -X.Y in the version.

Like patch https://reviews.llvm.org/D41808, I propose that we rename libLLVM-7.0svn.so to libLLVM-7svn.so 
This patch will also rename downstream libraries like liblldb-7.0 to liblldb-7
