5e48e7f807 AVX1 stack folding tests. NFC.
Begun adding more exhaustive tests - all floating point instructions should now be either tested or have placeholders. We do seem to have a number of missing instructions, I will add a patch for review once the remaining working instructions are added.

I'll then move on to SSE tests and then the integer instructions.

e9b3a1a030 [PowerPC] Initial PPC64 calling-convention changes for fastcc
The default calling convention specified by the PPC64 ELF (V1 and V2) ABI is
designed to work with both prototyped and non-prototyped/varargs functions. As
a result, GPRs and stack space are allocated for every argument, even those
that are passed in floating-point or vector registers.

GlobalOpt::OptimizeFunctions will transform local non-varargs functions (that
do not have their address taken) to use the 'fast' calling convention.

When functions are using the 'fast' calling convention, don't allocate GPRs for
arguments passed in other types of registers, and don't allocate stack space for
arguments passed in registers. Other changes for the fast calling convention
may be added in the future.

470187b350 [PowerPC] Don't list R11 as a patchpoint scratch register
R11's status is the same under both the PPC64 ELF V1 and V2 ABIs: it is
reserved for use as an "environment pointer" for compilation models that
require such a thing. We don't, we also don't need a second scratch register,
and because we support only "local" patchpoint call targets, we might as well
let R11 be used for anyregcc patchpoints.

e119c6afaf Improve DAG combine pass on certain IR vector patterns
Loading 2 2x32-bit float vectors into the bottom half of a 256-bit vector
produced suboptimal code in AVX2 mode with certain IR combinations.

In particular, the IR optimizer folded 2f32 + 2f32 -> 4f32, 4f32 + 4f32
(undef) -> 8f32 into a 2f32 + 2f32 -> 8f32, which seems more canonical,
but then mysteriously generated rather bad code; the movq/movhpd combination
didn't match.

The problem lay in the BUILD_VECTOR optimization path. The 2f32 inputs
would get promoted to 4f32 by the type legalizer, eventually resulting
in a BUILD_VECTOR on two 4f32 into an 8f32. The BUILD_VECTOR then, recognizing
these were both half the output size, concatted them and then produced
a shuffle. However, the resulting concat + shuffle was more complex than
it should be; in the case where the upper half of the output is undef, we
probably want to generate shuffle + concat instead.

This enhancement causes the vector_shuffle combine step to recognize this
suboptimal pattern and correct it. I included it there instead of in BUILD_VECTOR
in case the same suboptimal pattern occurs for other reasons.

This results in the optimizer correctly producing the optimal movq + movhpd
sequence for all three variations on this IR, even with AVX2.

I've included a test case.

d2869df8d3 [X86][DAG] Disable target specific combine on INSERTPS dag nodes at -O0.
This patch disables target specific combine on X86ISD::INSERTPS dag nodes
if optlevel is CodeGenOpt::None.

The backend currently implements a target specific combine rule that converts
a vector load used by an INSERTPS dag node into a scalar load plus a
scalar_to_vector. This allows ISel to select a single INSERTPSrm instead of
two instructions (i.e. a vector load plus INSERTPSrr).

However, the existing target combine rule on INSERTPS nodes only works under
the assumption that ISel will always be able to match an INSERTPSrm. This is
not true in general at -O0, since the backend only allows folding a load into
the memory operand of an instruction if the optimization level is not
CodeGenOpt::None.

In the example below:

//
__m128 test(__m128 a, __m128 *b) {
  __m128 c = _mm_insert_ps(a, *b, 1 << 6);
  return c;
}
//

Before this patch, at -O0, the backend would have canonicalized the load to 'b'
into a scalar load plus scalar_to_vector. Later on, ISel would have selected an
INSERTPSrr leaving the insertps mask in an inconsistent state:

  movss 4(%rdi), %xmm1
  insertps  $64, %xmm1, %xmm0 # xmm0 = xmm1[1],xmm0[1,2,3].

With this patch, the backend avoids folding the vector load into the operand of
the INSERTPS. The new codegen at -O0 is:

  movaps (%rdi), %xmm1
  insertps  $64, %xmm1, %xmm0 # %xmm1[1],xmm0[1,2,3].

f787eeaa8f [X86] Refactored stack memory folding tests to explicitly force register spilling
The current 'big vectors' stack folded reload testing pattern is very bulky and makes it difficult to test all instructions as big vectors will tend to use only the ymm instruction implementations.

This patch changes the tests to use a nop call that lists explicit xmm registers as sideeffects, with this we can force a partial register spill of the relevant registers and then check that the reload is correctly folded. The asm generated only adds the forced spill, a nop instruction and a couple of extra labels (a fraction of the current approach).

More exhaustive tests will follow shortly, I've added some extra tests (the xmm versions of some of the existing folding tests) as a starting point.

04316a019c [PowerPC] Adjust PatchPoints for ppc64le
Bill Schmidt pointed out that some adjustments would be needed to properly
support powerpc64le (using the ELF V2 ABI). For one thing, R11 is not available
as a scratch register, so we need to use R12. R12 is also available under ELF
V1, so to maintain consistency, I flipped the order to make R12 the first
scratch register in the array under both ABIs.

dcf8b14857 [PowerPC] Loosen ELFv1 PPC64 func descriptor loads for indirect calls
Function pointers under PPC64 ELFv1 (which is used on PPC64/Linux on the
POWER7, A2 and earlier cores) are really pointers to a function descriptor, a
structure with three pointers: the actual pointer to the code to which to jump,
the pointer to the TOC needed by the callee, and an environment pointer. We
used to chain these loads, and make them opaque to the rest of the optimizer,
so that they'd always occur directly before the call. This is not necessary,
and in fact, highly suboptimal on embedded cores. Once the function pointer is
known, the loads can be performed ahead of time; in fact, they can be hoisted
out of loops.

Now these function descriptors are almost always generated by the linker, and
thus the contents of the descriptors are invariant. As a result, by default,
we'll mark the associated loads as invariant (allowing them to be hoisted out
of loops). I've added a target feature to turn this off, however, just in case
someone needs that option (constructing an on-stack descriptor, casting it to a
function pointer, and then calling it cannot be well-defined C/C++ code, but I
can imagine some JIT-compilation system doing so).

Consider this simple test:
  $ cat call.c

  typedef void (*fp)();
  void bar(fp x) {
    for (int i = 0; i < 1600000000; ++i)
      x();
  }

  $ cat main.c

  typedef void (*fp)();
  void bar(fp x);
  void foo() {}
  int main() {
    bar(foo);
  }

On the PPC A2 (the BG/Q supercomputer), marking the function-descriptor loads
as invariant brings the execution time down to ~8 seconds from ~32 seconds with
the loads in the loop.

The difference on the POWER7 is smaller. Compiling with:

  gcc -std=c99 -O3 -mcpu=native call.c main.c : ~6 seconds [this is 4.8.2]

  clang -O3 -mcpu=native call.c main.c : ~5.3 seconds

  clang -O3 -mcpu=native call.c main.c -mno-invariant-function-descriptors : ~4 seconds
  (looks like we'd benefit from additional loop unrolling here, as a first
   guess, because this is faster with the extra loads)

The -mno-invariant-function-descriptors will be added to Clang shortly.

d48111840e Revert "r226086 - Revert "r226071 - [RegisterCoalescer] Remove copies to reserved registers""
Reapply r226071 with fixes. Two fixes:

 1. We need to manually remove the old and create the new 'deaf defs'
    associated with physical register definitions when we move the definition of
    the physical register from the copy point to the point of the original vreg def.

    This problem was picked up by the machinstr verifier, and could trigger a
    verification failure on test/CodeGen/X86/2009-02-12-DebugInfoVLA.ll, so I've
    turned on the verifier in the tests.

 2. When moving the def point of the phys reg up, we need to make sure that it
    is neither defined nor read in between the two instructions. We don't, however,
    extend the live ranges of phys reg defs to cover uses, so just checking for
    live-range overlap between the pair interval and the phys reg aliases won't
    pick up reads. As a result, we manually iterate over the range and check for
    reads.

    A test soon to be committed to the PowerPC backend will test this change.

Original commit message:

[RegisterCoalescer] Remove copies to reserved registers

This allows the RegisterCoalescer to join "non-flipped" range pairs with a
physical destination register -- which allows the RegisterCoalescer to remove
copies like this:

<vreg> = something (maybe a load, for example)
... (things that don't use PHYSREG)
PHYSREG = COPY <vreg>

(with all of the restrictions normally applied by the RegisterCoalescer: having
compatible register classes, etc. )

Previously, the RegisterCoalescer handled only the opposite case (copying
*from* a physical register). I don't handle the problem fully here, but try to
get the common case where there is only one use of <vreg> (the COPY).

An upcoming commit to the PowerPC backend will make this pattern much more
common on PPC64/ELF systems.

ba862f13cb [MBP] Add flags to disable the BadCFGConflict check in MachineBlockPlacement.
Some benchmarks have shown that this could lead to a potential
performance benefit, and so adding some flags to try to help measure the
difference.

A possible explanation. In diamond-shaped CFGs (A followed by either
B or C both followed by D), putting B and C both in between A and
D leads to the code being less dense than it could be. Always either
B or C have to be skipped increasing the chance of cache misses etc.
Moving either B or C to after D might be beneficial on average.

In the long run, but we should probably do a better job of analyzing the
basic block and branch probabilities to move the correct one of B or
C to after D. But even if we don't use this in the long run, it is
a good baseline for benchmarking.

Original patch authored by Daniel Jasper with test tweaks and a second
flag added by me.

 * Negative test to ensure the icbt instruction is not generated when
using -mcpu=pwr7

794dabb4dc [PowerPC] Fix the noop-insert test
The form of nops used is CPU-specific (some CPUs, such as the POWER7, have
special group-terminating nops). We probably want a different callback for this
kind of nop insertion (something more like MCAsmBackend::writeNopData), or for
PPC to use a different mechanism for scheduling nops, but this will stop the
test from failing for now.

d3aa8b3a41 R600/SI: Remove some redudant load testcases.
This reduces coverage for Evergreen, since the more
complete tests have those run lines disabled.

424a0025ca R600/SI: Fix bad code with unaligned byte vector loads
Don't do the v4i8 -> v4f32 combine if the load will need to
be expanded due to alignment. This stops adding instructions
to repack into a single register that the v_cvt_ubyteN_f32
instructions read.

22a9f67443 Implement new way of expanding extloads.
Now that the source and destination types can be specified,
allow doing an expansion that doesn't use an EXTLOAD of the
result type. Try to do a legal extload to an intermediate type
and extend that if possible.

This generalizes the special case custom lowering of extloads
R600 has been using to work around this problem.

This also happens to fix a bug that would incorrectly use more
aligned loads than should be used.

a11b7ea471 Revert "r225811 - Revert "r225808 - [PowerPC] Add StackMap/PatchPoint support""
This re-applies r225808, fixed to avoid problems with SDAG dependencies along
with the preceding fix to ScheduleDAGSDNodes::RegDefIter::InitNodeNumDefs.
These problems caused the original regression tests to assert/segfault on many
(but not all) systems.

Original commit message:

This commit does two things:

 1. Refactors PPCFastISel to use more of the common infrastructure for call
    lowering (this lets us take advantage of this common code for lowering some
    common intrinsics, stackmap/patchpoint among them).

 2. Adds support for stackmap/patchpoint lowering. For the most part, this is
    very similar to the support in the AArch64 target, with the obvious differences
    (different registers, NOP instructions, etc.). The test cases are adapted
    from the AArch64 test cases.

One difference of note is that the patchpoint call sequence takes 24 bytes, so
you can't use less than that (on AArch64 you can go down to 16). Also, as noted
in the docs, we take the patchpoint address to be the actual code address
(assuming the call is local in the TOC-sharing sense), which should yield
higher performance than generating the full cross-DSO indirect-call sequence
and is likely just as useful for JITed code (if not, we'll change it).

StackMaps and Patchpoints are still marked as experimental, and so this support
is doubly experimental. So go ahead and experiment!

c2f3b58bb0 Insert random noops to increase security against ROP attacks (llvm)
A pass that adds random noops to X86 binaries to introduce diversity with the goal of increasing security against most return-oriented programming attacks.

Command line options:
  -noop-insertion // Enable noop insertion.
  -noop-insertion-percentage=X // X% of assembly instructions will have a noop prepended (default: 50%, requires -noop-insertion)
  -max-noops-per-instruction=X // Randomly generate X noops per instruction. ie. roll the dice X times with probability set above (default: 1). This doesn't guarantee X noop instructions.

In addition, the following 'quick switch' in clang enables basic diversity using default settings (currently: noop insertion and schedule randomization; it is intended to be extended in the future).
  -fdiversify

This is the llvm part of the patch.
clang part: D3393
