The backend tries to use block operations like MVC, NC, OC and XC for
simple scalar operations. For correctness reasons, it rejects any case
in which the regions might partially overlap. However, for performance
reasons, it should also reject cases where the regions might be equal,
since the instruction might then not use the fast path.
This fixes a performance regression seen in bzip2. We may want to limit
the optimisation even more in future, or even remove it entirely, but I'll
try with this for now.

The backend previously folded offsets into PC-relative addresses
whereever possible. That's the right thing to do when the address
can be used directly in a PC-relative memory reference (using things
like LRL). But if we have a register-based memory reference and need
to load the PC-relative address separately, it's better to use an anchor
point that could be shared with other accesses to the same area of the
variable.
Fixes a FIXME.

As specified in A8.8.72/A8.8.73/A8.8.74 in the ARM ARM, all variants of the ARM LDRD instruction have the following two constraints:
LDRD<c> <Rt>, <Rt2>, ...
(a) Rt must be even-numbered and not r14
(b) Rt2 must be R(t+1)
If those two constraints are not met the result of executing the instruction will be unpredictable.
Constraint (b) was already enforced, this commit adds support for constraint (a).
Fixes rdar://14479793.

For v4f32 and v2f64, EXTRACT_VECTOR_ELT is matched by a pseudo-insn which may
be expanded to subregister copies and/or instructions as appropriate.

This change fixes the problem reported in pr17380 and re-add the dagcombine
transformation ensuring that the value types are always legal if the
transformation is triggered after Legalization took place.
Added the test case from pr17380.

This file contains notes about the instruction selection for MSA. For example,
it notes that ilvl.d is cannot be selected because ilvev.d covers the same
cases and is selected instead of ilvl.d.

LDRD<c> <Rt>, <Rt2>, <label>
LDRD<c> <Rt>, <Rt2>, [<Rn>{, #+/-<imm>}]
LDRD<c> <Rt>, <Rt2>, [<Rn>], #+/-<imm>
LDRD<c> <Rt>, <Rt2>, [<Rn>, #+/-<imm>]!
As specified in A8.8.72/A8.8.73 in the ARM ARM, the T1 encoding has a constraint which enforces that Rt != Rt2.
If this constraint is not met the result of executing the instruction will be unpredictable.
Fixes rdar://14479780.

lowerMSABinaryIntr, lowerMSABinaryImmIntr, lowerMSABranchIntr,
and lowerMSAUnaryIntr were trivially small functions. Inlined them into
their callers.
lowerMSASplat now takes its callers SDLoc instead of making a new one.
No functional change.

This is a patch to add capability to llvm-objdump to dump COFF Import Table
entries, so that we can write tests for LLD checking Import Table contents.
llvm-objdump did not print anything but just file name if the format is COFF
and -private-headers option is given. This is a patch adds capability for
dumping DLL Import Table, which is specific to the COFF format.
In this patch I defined a new iterator to iterate over import table entries.
Also added a few functions to COFFObjectFile.cpp to access fields of the entry.

CFE produces it to indicate artificial locations.
c.f.: DWARF standard, Table 6.2:
line -- An unsigned integer indicating a source line number. Lines are numbered beginning at 1. The compiler may emit the value 0 in cases where an instruction cannot be attributed to any source line.

When generating code for shared libraries, even local calls may be
intercepted, so we need a nop after the call for the linker to fix up the
TOC. Test case adapted from the one provided in PR17354.

When asked to pad an irregular number of bytes, we should fill with
zeros. This is consistent with the behavior specified in the AIX
Assembler Language Reference as well as other LLVM and binutils
assemblers.
N.B. There is a small deviation from binutils' PPC assembler:
when handling pads which are greater than 4 bytes but not mod 4,
binutils will not emit any NOP sequences at all and only use zeros.
This may or may not be a bug but there is no excellent rationale as to
why that behavior is important to emulate. If that behavior is needed,
we can change writeNopData() to behave in the same way.
This fixes PR17352.

This is the first set of instructions with a ".b" modifier thus we need to add the required code to disassemble a MSA128B register class.
Patch by Matheus Almeida
llvm-svn: 191415
In more detail, this patch adds the ability to parse, encode and decode MSA registers ($w0-$w31). The format of 2RF instructions (MipsMSAInstrFormat.td) was updated so that we could attach a test case to this patch i.e., the test case parses, encodes and decodes 2 MSA instructions. Following patches will add the remainder of the instructions.
Note that DecodeMSA128BRegisterClass is missing from MipsDisassembler.td because it's not yet required at this stage and having it would cause a compiler warning (unused function).

Generally, it is desirable to distribute (a + b) * c to a*c + b*c for
ARM with VMLx forwarding, where a, b and c are vectors.
However, for (a + b)*(a + b), distribution will result in one extra
instruction.
With distribution:
x = a + b (add)
y = a * x (mul)
z = y + b * y (mla)
Without distribution:
x = a + b (add)
z = x * x (mul)
This patch checks if a mul is a square of add/sub. If yes, skip
distribution.
