of the abi we should be using. For targets that don't use the
option there's no change, otherwise this allows external users
to set the ABI via string and avoid some of the -backend-option
pain in clang.
Use this option to move the ABI for the ARM port from the
Subtarget to the TargetMachine and update the testcases
accordingly since it's no longer valid to set via -mattr.

The only difference between the front and back end code is that
the code for Triple::GNU was added for environment. That will migrate

Now that `Metadata` is typeless, reflect that in the assembly. These
are the matching assembly changes for the metadata/value split in
r223802.
- Only use the `metadata` type when referencing metadata from a call
intrinsic -- i.e., only when it's used as a `Value`.
- Stop pretending that `ValueAsMetadata` is wrapped in an `MDNode`
when referencing it from call intrinsics.
So, assembly like this:
define @foo(i32 %v) {
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 %v}, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{i32 7}, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !1, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{metadata !3}, metadata !0)
ret void, !bar !2
}
!0 = metadata !{metadata !2}
!1 = metadata !{i32* @global}
!2 = metadata !{metadata !3}
!3 = metadata !{}
turns into this:
define @foo(i32 %v) {
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 %v, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32 7, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata i32* @global, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !3, metadata !0)
call void @llvm.foo(metadata !{!3}, metadata !0)
ret void, !bar !2
}
!0 = !{!2}
!1 = !{i32* @global}
!2 = !{!3}
!3 = !{}

r223862 tried to also combine base-updating load/stores.
r224198 reverted it, as "it created a regression on the test-suite
on test MultiSource/Benchmarks/Ptrdist/anagram by scrambling the order
in which the words are shown."
Reapply, with a fix to ignore non-normal load/stores.
Truncstores are handled elsewhere (you can actually write a pattern for
those, whereas for postinc loads you can't, since they return two values),
but it should be possible to also combine extloads base updates, by checking
that the memory (rather than result) type is of the same size as the addend.
Original commit message:
We used to only combine intrinsics, and turn them into VLD1_UPD/VST1_UPD
when the base pointer is incremented after the load/store.
We can do the same thing for generic load/stores.
Note that we can only combine the first load/store+adds pair in
a sequence (as might be generated for a v16f32 load for instance),
because other combines turn the base pointer addition chain (each
computing the address of the next load, from the address of the last
load) into independent additions (common base pointer + this load's
offset).

The __fp16 type is unconditionally exposed. Since -mfp16-format is not yet
supported, there is not a user switch to change this behaviour. This build
attribute should capture the default behaviour of the compiler, which is to
expose the IEEE 754 version of __fp16.
When -mfp16-format is emitted, that will be the way to control the value of
this build attribute.

The test file test/CodeGen/ARM/build-attributes.ll was missing several
floating-point build attribute tests. The intention of this commit is that for
each CPU / architecture currently tested, there are now tests that make sure
the following attributes are sufficiently checked,
* Tag_ABI_FP_rounding
* Tag_ABI_FP_denormal
* Tag_ABI_FP_exceptions
* Tag_ABI_FP_user_exceptions
* Tag_ABI_FP_number_model
Also in this commit, the -unsafe-fp-math flag has been augmented with the full
suite of flags Clang sends to LLVM when you pass -ffast-math to Clang. That is,
`-unsafe-fp-math' has been changed to `-enable-unsafe-fp-math -disable-fp-elim
-enable-no-infs-fp-math -enable-no-nans-fp-math -fp-contract=fast'

So there are a couple of issues with indirect calls on thumbv4t. First, the most
'obvious' instruction, 'blx' isn't available until v5t. And secondly, the
next-most-obvious sequence: 'mov lr, pc; bx rN' doesn't DTRT in thumb code
because the saved off pc has its thumb bit cleared, so when the callee returns
we end up in ARM mode.... yuck.
The solution is to 'bl' to a nearby landing pad with a 'bx rN' in it.
We could cut down on code size by sharing the landing pads between call sites
that are close enough, but for the moment let's do correctness first and look at
performance later.

LLVM understands a -enable-sign-dependent-rounding-fp-math codegen option. When
the user has specified this option, the Tag_ABI_FP_rounding attribute should be
emitted with value 1. This option currently does not appear to disable
transformations and optimizations that assume default floating point rounding
behavior, AFAICT, but the intention should be recorded in the build attributes,
regardless of what the compiler actually does with the intention.

The default ARM floating-point mode does not support IEEE 754 mode exactly. Of
relevance to this patch is that input denormals are flushed to zero. The way in
which they're flushed to zero depends on the architecture,
* For VFPv2, it is implementation defined as to whether the sign of zero is
preserved.
* For VFPv3 and above, the sign of zero is always preserved when a denormal
is flushed to zero.
When FP support has been disabled, the strategy taken by this patch is to
assume the software support will mirror the behaviour of the hardware support
for the target *if it existed*. That is, for architectures which can only have
VFPv2, it is assumed the software will flush to positive zero. For later
architectures it is assumed the software will flush to zero preserving sign.

The string data for string-valued build attributes were being unconditionally
uppercased. There is no mention in the ARM ABI addenda about case conventions,
so it's technically implementation defined as to whether the data are
capitialised in some way or not. However, there are good reasons not to
captialise the data.
* It's less work.
* Some vendors may legitimately have case-sensitive checks for these
attributes which would fail on LLVM generated object files.
* There could be locale issues with uppercasing.
The original reasons for uppercasing appear to have stemmed from an
old codesourcery toolchain behaviour, see
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.compilers.llvm.cvs/87133
This patch makes the object file emitted no longer captialise string
data, it encodes as seen in the assembly source.

This was motivated by a bug which caused code like this to be
miscompiled:
declare void @take_ptr(i8*)
define void @test() {
%addr1.32 = alloca i8
%addr2.32 = alloca i32, i32 1028
call void @take_ptr(i8* %addr1)
ret void
}
This was emitting the following assembly to get the value of %addr1:
add r0, sp, #1020
add r0, r0, #8
However, "add r0, r0, #8" is not a valid Thumb1 instruction, and this
could not be assembled. The generated object file contained this,
resulting in r0 holding SP+8 rather tha SP+1028:
add r0, sp, #1020
add r0, sp, #8
This function looked like it could have caused miscompilations for
other combinations of registers and offsets (though I don't think it is
currently called with these), and the heuristic it used did not match
the emitted code in all cases.

ZeroOrOneBooleanContent or ZeroOrNegativeOneBooleanContent.

We use to track quite a few "adjusted" offsets through the FrameLowering code
to account for changes in the prologue instructions as we went and allow the

When we folded the DPR alignment gap into a push, we weren't noting the extra
distance from the beginning of the push to the FP, and so FP ended up pointing
at an incorrect offset.

This commit adds a new pass that can inject checks before indirect calls to
make sure that these calls target known locations. It supports three types of
checks and, at compile time, it can take the name of a custom function to call
when an indirect call check fails. The default failure function ignores the
error and continues.
This pass incidentally moves the function JumpInstrTables::transformType from
private to public and makes it static (with a new argument that specifies the
table type to use); this is so that the CFI code can transform function types
at call sites to determine which jump-instruction table to use for the check at
that site.
Also, this removes support for jumptables in ARM, pending further performance
analysis and discussion.

We currently try to push an even number of registers to preserve 8-byte
alignment during a function's prologue, but only when the stack alignment is
prcisely 8. Many of the reasons for doing it apply also when that alignment > 8
(the extra store is often free, and can save another stack adjustment, though
less frequently for 16-byte stack alignment).

We were making an attempt to do this by adding an extra callee-saved GPR (so
that there was an even number in the list), but when that failed we went ahead
and pushed anyway.
This had a couple of potential issues:
+ The .cfi directives we emit misplaced dN because they were based on
PrologEpilogInserter's calculation.
+ Unaligned stores can be less efficient.
+ Unaligned stores can actually fault (likely only an issue in niche cases,
but possible).
This adds a final explicit stack adjustment if all other options fail, so that
the actual locations of the registers match up with where they should be.

This CPU definition is redundant. The Cortex-A9 is defined as
supporting multiprocessing extensions. Remove its definition and
update appropriate tests.
LLVM defines both a cortex-a9 CPU and a cortex-a9-mp CPU. The only
difference between the two CPU definitions in ARM.td is that
cortex-a9-mp contains the feature FeatureMP for multiprocessing
extensions.
This is redundant since the Cortex-A9 is defined as having
multiprocessing extensions in the TRMs. armcc also defines the
Cortex-A9 as having multiprocessing extensions by default.

This patch adds an optimization in CodeGenPrepare to move an extractelement
right before a store when the target can combine them.
The optimization may promote any scalar operations to vector operations in the
way to make that possible.
** Context **
Some targets use different register files for both vector and scalar operations.
This means that transitioning from one domain to another may incur copy from one
register file to another. These copies are not coalescable and may be expensive.
For example, according to the scheduling model, on cortex-A8 a vector to GPR
move is 20 cycles.
** Motivating Example **
Let us consider an example:
define void @foo(<2 x i32>* %addr1, i32* %dest) {
%in1 = load <2 x i32>* %addr1, align 8
%extract = extractelement <2 x i32> %in1, i32 1
%out = or i32 %extract, 1
store i32 %out, i32* %dest, align 4
ret void
}
As it is, this IR generates the following assembly on armv7:
vldr d16, [r0] @vector load
vmov.32 r0, d16[1] @ cross-register-file copy: 20 cycles
orr r0, r0, #1 @ scalar bitwise or
str r0, [r1] @ scalar store
bx lr
Whereas we could generate much faster code:
vldr d16, [r0] @ vector load
vorr.i32 d16, #0x1 @ vector bitwise or
vst1.32 {d16[1]}, [r1:32] @ vector extract + store
bx lr
Half of the computation made in the vector is useless, but this allows to get
rid of the expensive cross-register-file copy.
** Proposed Solution **
To avoid this cross-register-copy penalty, we promote the scalar operations to
vector operations. The penalty will be removed if we manage to promote the whole
chain of computation in the vector domain.
Currently, we do that only when the chain of computation ends by a store and the
target is able to combine an extract with a store.
Stores are the most likely candidates, because other instructions produce values
that would need to be promoted and so, extracted as some point[1]. Moreover,
this is customary that targets feature stores that perform a vector extract (see
AArch64 and X86 for instance).
The proposed implementation relies on the TargetTransformInfo to decide whether
or not it is beneficial to promote a chain of computation in the vector domain.
Unfortunately, this interface is rather inaccurate for this level of details and
although this optimization may be beneficial for X86 and AArch64, the inaccuracy
will lead to the optimization being too aggressive.
Basically in TargetTransformInfo, everything that is legal has a cost of 1,
whereas, even if a vector type is legal, usually a vector operation is slightly
more expensive than its scalar counterpart. That will lead to too many
promotions that may not be counter balanced by the saving of the
cross-register-file copy. For instance, on AArch64 this penalty is just 4
cycles.
For now, the optimization is just enabled for ARM prior than v8, since those
processors have a larger penalty on cross-register-file copies, and the scope is
limited to basic blocks. Because of these two factors, we limit the effects of
the inaccuracy. Indeed, I did not want to build up a fancy cost model with block
frequency and everything on top of that.
[1] We can imagine targets that can combine an extractelement with other
instructions than just stores. If we want to go into that direction, the current
interfaces must be augmented and, moreover, I think this becomes a global isel
problem.

The previous code had a few problems, motivating the choices here.
1. It could create instructions clobbering CPSR, but the incoming MachineInstr
didn't reflect this. A potential source of corruption. This is why the patch
has a new PseudoInst for before lowering.
2. Similarly, there was some code to handle the incoming instruction not being
ARMCC::AL, but this would have caused massive problems if it was actually
invoked when a complex offset needing more than one instruction was requested.
3. It wasn't designed to handle unaligned pointers (or offsets). These should
probably be minimised anyway, but the code needs to deal with them properly
regardless.
4. It had some rather dubious ad-hoc code to avoid calling
emitThumbRegPlusImmediate, a function which should be designed to do precisely
this job.
We seem to cover the common cases correctly now, and hopefully can enhance
emitThumbRegPlusImmediate to handle any extra optimisations we need to add in
future.

The current instruction selection patterns for SMULW[BT] and SMLAW[BT]
are incorrect. These instructions multiply a 32-bit and a 16-bit value
(both signed) and return the top 32 bits of the 48-bit result. This
preserves the 16 bits of overflow, whereas the patterns they currently
match truncate the result to 16 bits then sign extend.
To select these instructions, we would need to match an ISD::SMUL_LOHI,
a sign extend, two shifts and an or. There is no way to match SMUL_LOHI
in an instruction pattern as it defines multiple values, so this would
have to be done in C++. I have raised

selection of these instructions.

Thumb1 has legitimate reasons for preferring 32-bit alignment of types
i1/i8/i16, since the 16-bit encoding of "add rD, sp, #imm" requires #imm to be
a multiple of 4. However, this is a trade-off betweem code size and RAM usage;
the DataLayout string is not the best place to represent it even if desired.
So this patch removes the extra Thumb requirements, hopefully making ARM and
Thumb completely compatible in this respect.

There's no hard requirement on LLVM to align local variable to 32-bits, so the
Thumb1 frame handling needs to be able to deal with variables that are only
naturally aligned without falling over.

Before, ARM and Thumb mode code had different preferred alignments, which could
lead to some rather unexpected results. There's justification for reducing it
from the default 64-bits (wasted space), but I don't think there is for going
below 32-bits.
There's no actual ABI change here, just to reassure people.

This reverts commit r218918, effectively reapplying r218914 after fixing
an Ocaml bindings test and an Asan crash. The root cause of the latter
was a tightened-up check in `DILexicalBlock::Verify()`, so I'll file a
PR to investigate who requires the loose check (and why).

This patch addresses the first stage of PR17891 by folding constant
arguments together into a single MDString. Integers are stringified and
a `\0` character is used as a separator.
Part of PR17891.
Note: I've attached my testcases upgrade scripts to the PR. If I've
just broken your out-of-tree testcases, they might help.

That commit was introduced in order to help investigate a problem in ARM
codegen breaking from commit 202304 (Add a limit to the heuristic that register
allocates instructions in local order). Recent analisys indicated that the
problem no longer exists, so I'm reverting this change.
See PR18996.
