This is the first of many upcoming patches for PowerPC fast
instruction selection support. This patch implements the minimum
necessary for a functional (but extremely limited) FastISel pass. It
allows the table-generated portions of the selector to be created and
used, but in most cases selection will fall back to the DAG selector.
None of the block terminator instructions are implemented yet, and
most interesting instructions require some special handling.
Therefore there aren't any new test cases with this patch. There will
be quite a few tests coming with future patches.
This patch adds the make/CMake support for the new code (including
tablegen -gen-fast-isel) and creates the FastISel object for PPC64 ELF
only. It instantiates the necessary virtual functions
(TargetSelectInstruction, TargetMaterializeConstant,
TargetMaterializeAlloca, tryToFoldLoadIntoMI, and FastLowerArguments),
but of these, only TargetMaterializeConstant contains any useful
implementation. This is present since the table-generated code
requires the ability to materialize integer constants for some
instructions.
This patch has been tested by building and running the
projects/test-suite code with -O0. All tests passed with the
exception of a couple of long-running tests that time out using -O0
code generation.

This adds assembler parser support to the PowerPC back end.
The parser will run for any powerpc-*-* and powerpc64-*-* triples,
but was tested only on 64-bit Linux. The supported syntax is
intended to be compatible with the GNU assembler.
The parser does not yet support all PowerPC instructions, but
it does support anything that is generated by LLVM itself.
There is no support for testing restricted instruction sets yet,
i.e. the parser will always accept any instructions it knows,
no matter what feature flags are given.
Instruction operands will be checked for validity and errors
generated. (Error handling in general could still be improved.)
The patch adds a number of test cases to verify instruction
and operand encodings. The tests currently cover all instructions
from the following PowerPC ISA v2.06 Book I facilities:
Branch, Fixed-point, Floating-Point, and Vector.
Note that a number of these instructions are not yet supported
by the back end; they are marked with FIXME.
A number of follow-on check-ins will add extra features. When
they are all included, LLVM passes all tests (including bootstrap)
when using clang -cc1as as the system assembler.

target machine from those that are only needed by codegen. The goal is to
sink the essential target description into MC layer so we can start building
MC based tools without needing to link in the entire codegen.
First step is to refactor TargetRegisterInfo. This patch added a base class
MCRegisterInfo which TargetRegisterInfo is derived from. Changed TableGen to
separate register description from the rest of the stuff.

missing ones are libsupport, libsystem and libvmcore. libvmcore is
currently blocked on bugpoint, which uses EH. Once it stops using
EH, we can switch it off.
This #if 0's out 3 unit tests, because gtest requires RTTI information.
Suggestions welcome on how to fix this.
