When unsafe FP math operations are enabled, we can use the fre[s] and
frsqrte[s] instructions, which generate reciprocal (sqrt) estimates, together
with some Newton iteration, in order to quickly generate floating-point
division and sqrt results. All of these instructions are separately optional,
and so each has its own feature flag (except for the Altivec instructions,
which are covered under the existing Altivec flag). Doing this is not only
faster than using the IEEE-compliant fdiv/fsqrt instructions, but allows these
computations to be pipelined with other computations in order to hide their
overall latency.
I've also added a couple of missing fnmsub patterns which turned out to be
missing (but are necessary for good code generation of the Newton iterations).
Altivec needs a similar fix, but that will probably be more complicated because
fneg is expanded for Altivec's v4f32.

The P7 and A2 have additional floating-point conversion instructions which
allow a direct two-instruction sequence (plus load/store) to convert from all
combinations (signed/unsigned i32/i64) <--> (float/double) (on previous cores,
only some combinations were directly available).

This instruction is available on modern PPC64 CPUs, and is now used
to improve the SINT_TO_FP lowering (by eliminating the need for the
separate sign extension instruction and decreasing the amount of
needed stack space).

These instructions are available on the P5x (and later) and on the A2. They
implement the standard floating-point rounding operations (floor, trunc, etc.).
One caveat: frin (round to nearest) does not implement "ties to even", and so
is only enabled in fast-math mode.

These are 64-bit load/store with byte-swap, and available on the P7 and the A2.
Like the similar instructions for 16- and 32-bit words, these are matched in the
target DAG-combine phase against load/store-bswap pairs.

PPC ISA 2.06 (P7, A2, etc.) has a popcntd instruction. Add this instruction and
tell TTI about it so that popcount-loop recognition will know about it.

This is the first commit of a large series which will add support for the
QPX vector instruction set to the PowerPC backend. This instruction set is
used on the IBM Blue Gene/Q supercomputers.

POWER4 is a 64-bit CPU (better matched to the 970).
The g3 is really the 750 (no altivec), the g4+ is the 74xx (not the 750).
Patch by Andreas Tobler.

The PPC target feature gpul (IsGigaProcessor) was only used for one thing:
To enable the generation of the MFOCRF instruction. Furthermore, this
instruction is available on other PPC cores outside of the G5 line. This
feature now corresponds to the HasMFOCRF flag.
No functionality change.

This adds a full itinerary for IBM's PPC64 A2 embedded core. These
cores form the basis for the CPUs in the new IBM BG/Q supercomputer.

When a target instruction wants to set target-specific flags, it should simply
set bits in the TSFlags bit vector defined in the Instruction TableGen class.
This works well because TableGen resolves member references late:
class I : Instruction {
AddrMode AM = AddrModeNone;
let TSFlags{3-0} = AM.Value;
}
let AM = AddrMode4 in
def ADD : I;
TSFlags gets the expected bits from AddrMode4 in this example.

1. Use flags on the instructions in the .td file to indicate the PPC970 unit
type instead of a table in the .cpp file. Much cleaner.
2. Change the hazard recognizer to build d-groups according to the actual
algorithm used, not my flawed understanding of it.
3. Model "must be in the first slot" and "must be the only instr in a group"
accurately.
