32399786f9 [PowerPC] use UINT64_C instead of ul
Attempting to fix PR22078 (building on 32-bit systems) by replacing my careless
use of 1ul to be a uint64_t constant with UINT64_C(1).

This reverts commit r225059. I think MSVC 2012 has a problem with this. This is
an attempt to fix one of the MSVC 2012 bots.

4b77e07165 Revert r225053: Add an ArrayRef upcasting constructor from ArrayRef<U*> -> ArrayRef<T*> where T is a base of U.
This appears to have broken at least the windows build bots due to
compile errors in the predicate that didn't simply supress the overload.
I'm not sure what the fix is, and the bots have been broken for a long
time now so I'm just reverting until Michael can figure out a fix.

2f1e3d88b7 [SROA] Switch to using a more direct debug logging technique in one part
of my new load and store splitting, and fix a bug where it logged
a totally irrelevant slice rather than the actual slice in question.

The logging here previously worked because we used to place new slices
onto the back of the core sequence, but that caused other problems.
I updated the actual code to store new slices in their own vector but
didn't update the logging. There isn't a good way to reuse the logging
any more, and frankly it wasn't needed. We can directly log this bit
more easily.

450b39e971 [SROA] Teach SROA how to much more intelligently handle split loads and
stores.

When there are accesses to an entire alloca with an integer
load or store as well as accesses to small pieces of the alloca, SROA
splits up the large integer accesses. In order to do that, it uses bit
math to merge the small accesses into large integers. While this is
effective, it produces insane IR that can cause significant problems in
the rest of the optimizer:

- It can cause load and store mismatches with GVN on the non-alloca side
  where we end up loading an i64 (or some such) rather than loading
  specific elements that are stored.
- We can't always get rid of the integer bit math, which is why we can't
  always fix the loads and stores to work well with GVN.
- This is especially bad when we have operations that mix poorly with
  integer bit math such as floating point operations.
- It will block things like the vectorizer which might be able to handle
  the scalar stores that underly the aggregate.

At the same time, we can't just directly split up these loads and stores
in all cases. If there is actual integer arithmetic involved on the
values, then using integer bit math is actually the perfect lowering
because we can often combine it heavily with the surrounding math.

The solution this patch provides is to find places where SROA is
partitioning aggregates into small elements, and look for splittable
loads and stores that it can split all the way to some other adjacent
load and store. These are uniformly the cases where failing to split the
loads and stores hurts the optimizer that I have seen, and I've looked
extensively at the code produced both from more and less aggressive
approaches to this problem.

However, it is quite tricky to actually do this in SROA. We may have
loads and stores to the same alloca, or other complex patterns that are
hard to handle. This complexity leads to the somewhat subtle algorithm
implemented here. We have to do this entire process as a separate pass
over the partitioning of the alloca, and split up all of the loads prior
to splitting the stores so that we can handle safely the cases of
overlapping, including partially overlapping, loads and stores to the
same alloca. We also have to reconstitute the post-split slice
configuration so we can avoid iterating again over all the alloca uses
(the slow part of SROA). But we also have to ensure that when we split
up loads and stores to *other* allocas, we *do* re-iterate over them in
SROA to adapt to the more refined partitioning now required.

With this, I actually think we can fix a long-standing TODO in SROA
where I avoided splitting as many loads and stores as probably should be
splittable. This limitation historically mitigated the fallout of all
the bad things mentioned above. Now that we have more intelligent
handling, I plan to remove the FIXME and more aggressively mark integer
loads and stores as splittable. I'll do that in a follow-up patch to
help with bisecting any fallout.

The net result of this change should be more fine-grained and accurate
scalars being formed out of aggregates. At the very least, Clang now
generates perfect code for this high-level test case using
std::complex<float>:

  #include <complex>

  void g1(std::complex<float> &x, float a, float b) {
    x += std::complex<float>(a, b);
  }
  void g2(std::complex<float> &x, float a, float b) {
    x -= std::complex<float>(a, b);
  }

  void foo(const std::complex<float> &x, float a, float b,
           std::complex<float> &x1, std::complex<float> &x2) {
    std::complex<float> l1 = x;
    g1(l1, a, b);
    std::complex<float> l2 = x;
    g2(l2, a, b);
    x1 = l1;
    x2 = l2;
  }

This code isn't just hypothetical either. It was reduced out of the hot
inner loops of essentially every part of the Eigen math library when
using std::complex<float>. Those loops would consistently and
pervasively hop between the floating point unit and the integer unit due
to bit math extraction and insertion of floating point values that were
"stored" in a 64-bit integer register around the loop backedge.

So far, this change has passed a bootstrap and I have done some other
testing and so far, no issues. That doesn't mean there won't be though,
so I'll be prepared to help with any fallout. If you performance swings
in particular, please let me know. I'm very curious what all the impact
of this change will be. Stay tuned for the follow-up to also split more
integer loads and stores.

84cd524ee9 [PowerPC] Improve instruction selection bit-permuting operations (64-bit)
This is the second installment of improvements to instruction selection for "bit
permutation" instruction sequences. r224318 added logic for instruction
selection for 32-bit bit permutation sequences, and this adds lowering for
64-bit sequences. The 64-bit sequences are more complicated than the 32-bit
ones because:
  a) the 64-bit versions of the 32-bit rotate-and-mask instructions
     work by replicating the lower 32-bits of the value-to-be-rotated into the
     upper 32 bits -- and integrating this into the cost modeling for the various
     bit group operations is non-trivial
  b) unlike the 32-bit instructions in 32-bit mode, the rotate-and-mask instructions
     cannot, in one instruction, specify the
     mask starting index, the mask ending index, and the rotation factor. Also,
     forming arbitrary 64-bit constants is more complicated than in 32-bit mode
     because the number of instructions necessary is value dependent.

Plus, support for 'late masking' was added: it is sometimes more efficient to
treat the overall value as if it had no mandatory zero bits when planning the
bit-group insertions, and then mask them in at the very end. Unfortunately, as
the structure of the bit groups is different in the two cases, the more
feasible implementation technique was to generate both instruction sequences,
and then pick the shorter one.

And finally, we now generate reasonable code for i64 bswap:

        rldicl 5, 3, 16, 0
        rldicl 4, 3, 8, 0
        rldicl 6, 3, 24, 0
        rldimi 4, 5, 8, 48
        rldicl 5, 3, 32, 0
        rldimi 4, 6, 16, 40
        rldicl 6, 3, 48, 0
        rldimi 4, 5, 24, 32
        rldicl 5, 3, 56, 0
        rldimi 4, 6, 40, 16
        rldimi 4, 5, 48, 8
        rldimi 4, 3, 56, 0

vs. what we used to produce:

        li 4, 255
        rldicl 5, 3, 24, 40
        rldicl 6, 3, 40, 24
        rldicl 7, 3, 56, 8
        sldi 8, 3, 8
        sldi 10, 3, 24
        sldi 12, 3, 40
        rldicl 0, 3, 8, 56
        sldi 9, 4, 32
        sldi 11, 4, 40
        sldi 4, 4, 48
        andi. 5, 5, 65280
        andis. 6, 6, 255
        andis. 7, 7, 65280
        sldi 3, 3, 56
        and 8, 8, 9
        and 4, 12, 4
        and 9, 10, 11
        or 6, 7, 6
        or 5, 5, 0
        or 3, 3, 4
        or 7, 9, 8
        or 4, 6, 5
        or 3, 3, 7
        or 3, 3, 4

which is 12 instructions, instead of 25, and seems optimal (at least in terms
of code size).

28650b8ec2 InstCombine: fsub nsz 0, X ==> fsub nsz -0.0, X
Some day the backend may handle instruction-level fast math flags and make
this transform unnecessary, but it's still better practice to use the canonical
representation of fneg when possible (use a -0.0).

This is a partial fix for PR20870 ( http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=20870 ).

8093abb745 Add r224985 back with a fix.
The issues was that AArch64 has additional restrictions on when local
relocations can be used. We have to take those into consideration when
deciding to put a L symbol in the symbol table or not.

Original message:

Remove doesSectionRequireSymbols.

In an assembly expression like

bar:
.long L0 + 1

the intended semantics is that bar will contain a pointer one byte past L0.

In sections that are merged by content (strings, 4 byte constants, etc), a
single position in the section doesn't give the linker enough information.
For example, it would not be able to tell a relocation must point to the
end of a string, since that would look just like the start of the next.

The solution used in ELF to use relocation with symbols if there is a non-zero
addend.

In MachO before this patch we would just keep all symbols in some sections.

This would miss some cases (only cstrings on x86_64 were implemented) and was
inefficient since most relocations have an addend of 0 and can be represented
without the symbol.

This patch implements the non-zero addend logic for MachO too.

1d68fc5021 DebugInfo: Omit is_stmt from line table entries on the same line.
GCC does this for non-zero discriminators and since GCC doesn't produce
column info, that was the only place it comes up there. For LLVM, since
we can emit discriminators and/or column info, it makes more sense to
invert the condition and just test for changes in line number.

This should resolve at least some of the GDB 7.5 test suite failures
created by recent Clang changes that increase the location fidelity
(which, since Clang defaults to including column info on Linux by
default created a bunch of cases that confused GDB).

In theory we could do this better/differently by grouping actual source
statements together in a similar manner to the way lexical scopes are
handled but given that GDB isn't really in a position to consume that (&
users are probably somewhat used to different lines being different
'statements') this seems the safest and cheapest change. (I'm concerned
that doing this 'right' would bloat the debugloc data even further -
something Duncan's working hard to address)

d8ae3e1fee x86_64: Fix calls to __morestack under the large code model.
Under the large code model, we cannot assume that __morestack lives within
2^31 bytes of the call site, so we cannot use pc-relative addressing. We
cannot perform the call via a temporary register, as the rax register may
be used to store the static chain, and all other suitable registers may be
either callee-save or used for parameter passing. We cannot use the stack
at this point either because __morestack manipulates the stack directly.

To avoid these issues, perform an indirect call via a read-only memory
location containing the address.

This solution is not perfect, as it assumes that the .rodata section
is laid out within 2^31 bytes of each function body, but this seems to
be sufficient for JIT.

08c26613e1 [COFF] Don't try to add quotes to already quoted linker directives
If a linker directive is already quoted, don't try to quote it again, otherwise it creates a mess.
This pops up in places like:
#pragma comment(linker,"\"/foo bar'\"")

8919b82605 Make the __morestack function available to the JIT memory manager under Linux.
This function's implementation lives in libgcc, a static library, so we need
to expose it explicitly, like the other such functions.

65300b95e6 Remove doesSectionRequireSymbols.
In an assembly expression like

bar:
.long L0 + 1

the intended semantics is that bar will contain a pointer one byte past L0.

In sections that are merged by content (strings, 4 byte constants, etc), a
single position in the section doesn't give the linker enough information.
For example, it would not be able to tell a relocation must point to the
end of a string, since that would look just like the start of the next.

The solution used in ELF to use relocation with symbols if there is a non-zero
addend.

In MachO before this patch we would just keep all symbols in some sections.

This would miss some cases (only cstrings on x86_64 were implemented) and was
inefficient since most relocations have an addend of 0 and can be represented
without the symbol.

This patch implements the non-zero addend logic for MachO too.
