This adds support for the QPX vector instruction set, which is used by the
enhanced A2 cores on the IBM BG/Q supercomputers. QPX vectors are 256 bytes
wide, holding 4 double-precision floating-point values. Boolean values, modeled
here as <4 x i1> are actually also represented as floating-point values
(essentially { -1, 1 } for { false, true }). QPX shares many features with
Altivec and VSX, but is distinct from both of them. One major difference is
that, instead of adding completely-separate vector registers, QPX vector
registers are extensions of the scalar floating-point registers (lane 0 is the
corresponding scalar floating-point value). The operations supported on QPX
vectors mirrors that supported on the scalar floating-point values (with some
additional ones for permutations and logical/comparison operations).
I've been maintaining this support out-of-tree, as part of the bgclang project,
for several years. This is not the entire bgclang patch set, but is most of the
subset that can be cleanly integrated into LLVM proper at this time. Adding
this to the LLVM backend is part of my efforts to rebase bgclang to the current
LLVM trunk, but is independently useful (especially for codes that use LLVM as
a JIT in library form).
The assembler/disassembler test coverage is complete. The CodeGen test coverage
is not, but I've included some tests, and more will be added as follow-up work.

This patch adds builtin support for xvdivdp and xvdivsp, along with a
test case. Straightforward stuff.
There's a companion patch for Clang.

This patch enables the vec_vsx_ld and vec_vsx_st intrinsics for
PowerPC, which provide programmer access to the lxvd2x, lxvw4x,
stxvd2x, and stxvw4x instructions.
New LLVM intrinsics are provided to represent these four instructions
in IntrinsicsPowerPC.td. These are patterned after the similar
intrinsics for lvx and stvx (Altivec). In PPCInstrVSX.td, these
intrinsics are tied to the code gen patterns, with additional patterns
to allow plain vanilla loads and stores to still generate these
instructions.
At -O1 and higher the intrinsics are immediately converted to loads
and stores in InstCombineCalls.cpp. This will open up more
optimization opportunities while still allowing the correct
instructions to be generated. (Similar code exists for aligned
Altivec loads and stores.)
The new intrinsics are added to the code that checks for consecutive
loads and stores in PPCISelLowering.cpp, as well as to
PPCTargetLowering::getTgtMemIntrinsic().
There's a new test to verify the correct instructions are generated.
The loads and stores tend to be reordered, so the test just counts
their number. It runs at -O2, as it's not very effective to test this
at -O0, when many unnecessary loads and stores are generated.
I ended up having to modify vsx-fma-m.ll. It turns out this test case
is slightly unreliable, but I don't know a good way to prevent
problems with it. The xvmaddmdp instructions read and write the same
register, which is one of the multiplicands. Commutativity allows
either to be chosen. If the FMAs are reordered differently than
expected by the test, the register assignment can be different as a
result. Hopefully this doesn't change often.
There is a companion patch for Clang.

Now that we have initial support for VSX, we can begin adding
intrinsics for programmer access to VSX instructions. This patch adds
basic support for VSX intrinsics in general, and tests it by
implementing intrinsics for minimum and maximum for the vector double
data type.
The LLVM portion of this is quite straightforward. There is a
companion patch for Clang.

Summary:
This patch makes use of AtomicExpandPass in Power for inserting fences around
atomic as part of an effort to remove fence insertion from SelectionDAGBuilder.
As a big bonus, it lets us use sync 1 (lightweight sync, often used by the mnemonic
lwsync) instead of sync 0 (heavyweight sync) in many cases.
I also added a test, as there was no test for the barriers emitted by the Power
backend for atomic loads and stores.

The old PPCCTRLoops pass, like the Hexagon pass version from which it was
derived, could only handle some simple loops in canonical form. We cannot
directly adapt the new Hexagon hardware loops pass, however, because the
Hexagon pass contains a fundamental assumption that non-constant-trip-count
loops will contain a guard, and this is not always true (the result being that
incorrect negative counts can be generated). With this commit, we replace the
pass with a late IR-level pass which makes use of SE to calculate the
backedge-taken counts and safely generate the loop-count expressions (including
any necessary max() parts). This IR level pass inserts custom intrinsics that
are lowered into the desired decrement-and-branch instructions.
The most fragile part of this new implementation is that interfering uses of
the counter register must be detected on the IR level (and, on PPC, this also
includes any indirect branches in addition to function calls). Also, to make
all of this work, we need a variant of the mtctr instruction that is marked
as having side effects. Without this, machine-code level CSE, DCE, etc.
illegally transform the resulting code. Hopefully, this can be improved
in the future.
This new pass is smaller than the original (and much smaller than the new
Hexagon hardware loops pass), and can handle many additional cases correctly.
In addition, the preheader-creation code has been copied from LoopSimplify, and
after we decide on where it belongs, this code will be refactored so that it
can be explicitly shared (making this implementation even smaller).
The new test-case files ctrloop-{le,lt,ne}.ll have been adapted from tests for
the new Hexagon pass. There are a few classes of loops that this pass does not
transform (noted by FIXMEs in the files), but these deficiencies can be
addressed within the SE infrastructure (thus helping many other passes as well).

into their new header subdirectory: include/llvm/IR. This matches the
directory structure of lib, and begins to correct a long standing point
of file layout clutter in LLVM.
There are still more header files to move here, but I wanted to handle
them in separate commits to make tracking what files make sense at each
layer easier.
The only really questionable files here are the target intrinsic
tablegen files. But that's a battle I'd rather not fight today.
I've updated both CMake and Makefile build systems (I think, and my
tests think, but I may have missed something).
I've also re-sorted the includes throughout the project. I'll be
committing updates to Clang, DragonEgg, and Polly momentarily.
