all over the place in different styles and variants. Standardize on two
preferred entrypoints: one that takes a StructType and ArrayRef, and one that
takes StructType and varargs.
In cases where there isn't a struct type convenient, we now add a
ConstantStruct::getAnon method (whose name will make more sense after a few
more patches land).
It would be "really really nice" if the ConstantStruct::get and
ConstantVector::get methods didn't make temporary std::vectors.

A RegisterTuples instance is used to synthesize super-registers by
zipping together lists of sub-registers. This is useful for generating
pseudo-registers representing register sequence constraints like 'two
consecutive GPRs', or 'an even-odd pair of floating point registers'.
The RegisterTuples def can be used in register set operations when
building register classes. That is the only way of accessing the
synthesized super-registers.
For example, the ARM QQ register class of pseudo-registers could have
been formed like this:
// Form pairs Q0_Q1, Q2_Q3, ...
def QQPairs : RegisterTuples<[qsub_0, qsub_1],
[(decimate QPR, 2),
(decimate (shl QPR, 1), 2)]>;
def QQ : RegisterClass<..., (add QQPairs)>;
Similarly, pseudo-registers representing '3 consecutive D-regs with
wraparound' look like:
// Form D0_D1_D2, D1_D2_D3, ..., D30_D31_D0, D31_D0_D1.
def DSeqTriples : RegisterTuples<[dsub_0, dsub_1, dsub_2],
[(rotl DPR, 0),
(rotl DPR, 1),
(rotl DPR, 2)]>;
TableGen automatically computes aliasing information for the synthesized
registers.
Register tuples are still somewhat experimental. We still need to see
how they interact with MC.

top level type without a specified number. This asmprinter has never
generated this, as you can tell by no tests being updated. It also isn't
documented.

In cases such as the attached test, where the case value for a switch
destination is used in a phi node that follows the destination, it
might be better to replace that value with the condition value of the
switch, so that more blocks can be folded away with
TryToSimplifyUncondBranchFromEmptyBlock because there are less
conflicts in the phi node.

type's bitwidth matches the (allocated) size of the alloca. This severely
pessimizes vector scalar replacement when the only vector type being used is
something like <3 x float> on x86 or ARM whose allocated size matches a
<4 x float>.
I hope to fix some of the flawed assumptions about allocated size throughout
scalar replacement and reenable this in most cases.

for pre-2.9 bitcode files. We keep x86 unaligned loads, movnt, crc32, and the
target indep prefetch change.
As usual, updating the testsuite is a PITA.

Targets that need to change the default allocation order should use the
AltOrders mechanism instead. See the X86 and ARM targets for examples.
The allocation_order_begin() and allocation_order_end() methods have been
replaced with getRawAllocationOrder(), and there is further support
functions in RegisterClassInfo.
It is no longer possible to insert arbitrary code into generated
register classes. This is a feature.
llvm-svn: 133332
A register class can define AltOrders and AltOrderSelect instead of
defining method protos and bodies. The AltOrders lists can be defined
with set operations, and TableGen can verify that the alternative
allocation orders only contain valid registers.
This is currently an opt-in feature, and it is still possible to
override allocation_order_begin/end. That will not be true for long.
