one-byte NOPs. If the processor actually executes those NOPs, as it sometimes
does with aligned bundling, this can have a performance impact. From my
micro-benchmarks run on my one machine, a 15-byte NOP followed by twelve
one-byte NOPs is about 20% worse than a 15 followed by a 12. This patch
changes NOP emission to emit as many 15-byte (the maximum) as possible followed
by at most one shorter NOP.

detail.
The was this test was written, it was relying on an implementation detail
(fixups) and hence was very brittle (relying, among other things, on the
exact ordering of statistics printed by MC).
The test was rewritten to check a more observable output difference. While it
doesn't cover 100% of the things the original test covered, it's a good
practice to write regression tests this way. If we want to check that
internal details and invariants hold, such tests should be expressed as unit
tests.

The work done by the post-encoder (setting architecturally unused bits to 0 as
required) can be done by the existing operand that covers the "#0.0". This
removes at least one use of the discouraged PostEncoderMethod uses.

The constructs %hi() and %lo() represent the high and low 16
bits of the address.
Because the 16 bit offset field of an LW instruction is
interpreted as signed, if bit 15 of the low part is 1 then the
low part will act as a negative and 1 needs to be added to the
high part.

Mips specific standalone assembler directive "set at".
This directive changes the general purpose register

This does not include negative testing. That will come

A side affect of this patch recognizes the different

With bundle alignment, instructions all get their own MCFragments
(unless they are in a bundle-locked group). For instructions with
fixups, this is an MCDataFragment. Emitting actual data (e.g. for
.long) attempts to re-use MCDataFragments, which we don't want int
this case since it leads to fragments which exceed the bundle size.
So, don't reuse them in this case.
Also adds a test and fixes some formatting.

This is complicated by backward labels (e.g., 0b can be both a backward label
and a binary zero). The current implementation assumes [0-9]b is always a
label and thus it's possible for 0b and 1b to not be interpreted correctly for
ms-style inline assembly. However, this is relatively simple to fix in the
inline assembly (i.e., drop the [bB]).
This patch also limits backward labels to [0-9]b, so that only 0b and 1b are
ambiguous.

Currently, when a fragment is relaxed, its size is modified, but its
offset is not (it gets laid out as a side effect of checking whether
it needs relaxation), then all subsequent fragments are invalidated
because their offsets need to change. When bundling is enabled,
relaxed fragments need to get laid out again, because the increase in
size may push it over a bundle boundary. So instead of only
invalidating subsequent fragments, also invalidate the fragment that
gets relaxed, which causes it to get laid out again.
This patch also fixes some trailing whitespace and fixes the
bundling-related debug output of MCFragments.

This patch adds support for AArch64 (ARM's 64-bit architecture) to
LLVM in the "experimental" category. Currently, it won't be built
unless requested explicitly.
This initial commit should have support for:
+ Assembly of all scalar (i.e. non-NEON, non-Crypto) instructions
(except the late addition CRC instructions).
+ CodeGen features required for C++03 and C99.
+ Compilation for the "small" memory model: code+static data <
4GB.
+ Absolute and position-independent code.
+ GNU-style (i.e. "__thread") TLS.
+ Debugging information.
The principal omission, currently, is performance tuning.
This patch excludes the NEON support also reviewed due to an outbreak of
batshit insanity in our legal department. That will be committed soon bringing
the changes to precisely what has been approved.
Further reviews would be gratefully received.

and update ELF header e_flags.
Currently gathering information such as symbol,
section and data is done by collecting it in an
MCAssembler object. From MCAssembler and MCAsmLayout
objects ELFObjectWriter::WriteObject() forms and
streams out the ELF object file.
This patch just adds a few members to the MCAssember
class to store and access the e_flag settings. It
allows for runtime additions to the e_flag by
assembler directives. The standalone assembler can
get to MCAssembler from getParser().getStreamer().getAssembler().
This patch is the generic infrastructure and will be
followed by patches for ARM and Mips for their target
specific use.
