The first problem to fix is to stop creating synthetic *Table_gen
targets next to all of the LLVM libraries. These had no real effect as
CMake specifies that add_custom_command(OUTPUT ...) directives (what the
'tablegen(...)' stuff expands to) are implicitly added as dependencies
to all the rules in that CMakeLists.txt.
These synthetic rules started to cause problems as we started more and
more heavily using tablegen files from *subdirectories* of the one where
they were generated. Within those directories, the set of tablegen
outputs was still available and so these synthetic rules added them as
dependencies of those subdirectories. However, they were no longer
properly associated with the custom command to generate them. Most of
the time this "just worked" because something would get to the parent
directory first, and run tablegen there. Once run, the files existed and
the build proceeded happily. However, as more and more subdirectories
have started using this, the probability of this failing to happen has
increased. Recently with the MC refactorings, it became quite common for
me when touching a large enough number of targets.
To add insult to injury, several of the backends *tried* to fix this by
adding explicit dependencies back to the parent directory's tablegen
rules, but those dependencies didn't work as expected -- they weren't
forming a linear chain, they were adding another thread in the race.
This patch removes these synthetic rules completely, and adds a much
simpler function to declare explicitly that a collection of tablegen'ed
files are referenced by other libraries. From that, we can add explicit
dependencies from the smaller libraries (such as every architectures
Desc library) on this and correctly form a linear sequence. All of the
backends are updated to use it, sometimes replacing the existing attempt
at adding a dependency, sometimes adding a previously missing dependency
edge.
Please let me know if this causes any problems, but it fixes a rather
persistent and problematic source of build flakiness on our end.

instruction introduced in AVX, which can operate on 128 and 256-bit vectors.
It considers a 256-bit vector as two independent 128-bit lanes. It can permute
any 32 or 64 elements inside a lane, and restricts the second lane to
have the same permutation of the first one. With the improved splat support
introduced early today, adding codegen for this instruction enable more
efficient 256-bit code:
Instead of:

punpcklbw %xmm0, %xmm0
punpckhbw %xmm0, %xmm0
vinsertf128 $0, %xmm0, %ymm0, %ymm1
vinsertf128 $1, %xmm0, %ymm1, %ymm0
vextractf128 $1, %ymm0, %xmm1
shufps $1, %xmm1, %xmm1
movss %xmm1, 28(%rsp)
movss %xmm1, 24(%rsp)
movss %xmm1, 20(%rsp)
movss %xmm1, 16(%rsp)
vextractf128 $0, %ymm0, %xmm0
shufps $1, %xmm0, %xmm0
movss %xmm0, 12(%rsp)
movss %xmm0, 8(%rsp)
movss %xmm0, 4(%rsp)
movss %xmm0, (%rsp)
vmovaps (%rsp), %ymm0
We get:
vextractf128 $0, %ymm0, %xmm0
punpcklbw %xmm0, %xmm0
punpckhbw %xmm0, %xmm0
vinsertf128 $0, %xmm0, %ymm0, %ymm1

with the newer, cleaner model. It uses the IAPrinter class to hold the
information that is needed to match an instruction with its alias. This also
takes into account the available features of the platform.
There is one bit of ugliness. The way the logic determines if a pattern is
unique is O(N**2), which is gross. But in reality, the number of items it's
checking against isn't large. So while it's N**2, it shouldn't be a massive time
sink.

the alias of an InstAlias instead of the thing being aliased. Because we need to
know the features that are valid for an InstAlias.
This is part of a work-in-progress.

and 256-bit forms. Because the number of elements in a vector
does not determine the vector type (4 elements could be v4f32 or
v4f64), pass the full type of the vector to decode routines.

(LLVMX86Utils.a) to break cyclic library dependencies between
LLVMX86CodeGen.a and LLVMX86AsmParser.a. Previously this code was in
a header file and marked static but AVX requires some additional
functionality here that won't be used by all clients. Since including
unused static functions causes a gcc compiler warning, keeping it as a
header would break builds that use -Werror. Putting this in its own
library solves both problems at once.
