95ce4c2ffb Initial submission for the attribute group feature.
Attribute groups are of the form:

  #0 = attributes { noinline "no-sse" "cpu"="cortex-a8" alignstack=4 }

Target-dependent attributes are represented as strings. Attributes can have
optional values associated with them. E.g., the "cpu" attribute has the value
"cortex-a8".

Target-independent attributes are listed as enums inside the attribute classes.

Multiple attribute groups can be referenced by the same object. In that case,
the attributes are merged together.

6c440fcea5 Pass CPPFLAGS/CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS from the environment of configure to
Makefile.config.

This is implied at the bottom of the help text of configure (besides
CC/CXX/LDFLAGS, already passed to Makefile.config).

For backward compatibility, the values of CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS defaults
to empty, overriding the default values provided by autoconf (for
example, '-g -O2' when CC=gcc').

$(CPP) is not used by our makefiles. Therefore, the value of CPP is
not passed to Makefile.config, despite beeing mentioned by 'configure
--help'.

4283499dcd Added clarification paragraph to LangRef's documentation of
GlobalVariable about LLVM's assumptions vis-a-vis Global Variable
initial values and Global Variable initializers.

This is in preparation for adding the new keyword
externally_initialized.

Specifically, the patch explains how LLVM optimizes global initializers
by assumign that global variables defined within the module are not
modified from their initial values before the start of the global
initializer.

f1f57c5c1a [docs] Fixup fallout from other grammar fixup.
My "excuse" for not refactoring the grammar here is to not diverge too
far from the grammar in the comments of TGParser.cpp, since I'm not
taking on the quest of majorly refactoring TGParser.cpp at the moment.

One benefit of doing this is that Ideas for refactoring and clarifying
the grammar in this document should translate almost immediately to
beneficial refactorings that can be made to TGParser.cpp.

72062f5744 Add AArch64 as an experimental target.
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.

9a6dd02261 ...in light of recent activity related to llvm.memcpy flags. I want to
prevent an llvm developer from mistakenly thinking that just because the
intrinsic has volatile flags that volatile operations can be converted
to or folded into them.

Platforms may rely on volatile loads and stores of natively supported
data width to be executed as single instruction. When compiling
C, this expectation likely holds for l-values of volatile primitive
types with native hardware support, but not necessarily for aggregate
types. The frontend upholds these expectations, which are not
specified in the IR.

e4957fb9b7 Add the heuristic to differentiate SSPStrong from SSPRequired.
The requirements of the strong heuristic are:

* A Protector is required for functions which contain an array, regardless of
  type or length.

* A Protector is required for functions which contain a structure/union which
  contains an array, regardless of type or length.  Note, there is no limit to
  the depth of nesting.

* A protector is required when the address of a local variable (i.e., stack
  based variable) is exposed. (E.g., such as through a local whose address is
  taken as part of the RHS of an assignment or a local whose address is taken as
  part of a function argument.)

114baee1fa Add the IR attribute 'sspstrong'.
SSPStrong applies a heuristic to insert stack protectors in these situations:

* A Protector is required for functions which contain an array, regardless of
  type or length.

* A Protector is required for functions which contain a structure/union which
  contains an array, regardless of type or length.  Note, there is no limit to
  the depth of nesting.

* A protector is required when the address of a local variable (i.e., stack
  based variable) is exposed. (E.g., such as through a local whose address is
  taken as part of the RHS of an assignment or a local whose address is taken as
  part of a function argument.)

This patch implements the SSPString attribute to be equivalent to
SSPRequired. This will change in a subsequent patch.
