consecutive addresses togther. This makes it easier for the post-allocation pass
to form ldm / stm.
This is step 1. We are still missing a lot of ldm / stm opportunities because
of register allocation are not done in the desired order. More enhancements
coming.

code in preparation for code generation. The main thing it does
is handle the case when eh.exception calls (and, in a future
patch, eh.selector calls) are far away from landing pads. Right
now in practice you only find eh.exception calls close to landing
pads: either in a landing pad (the common case) or in a landing
pad successor, due to loop passes shifting them about. However
future exception handling improvements will result in calls far
from landing pads:
(1) Inlining of rewinds. Consider the following case:
In function @f:
...
invoke @g to label %normal unwind label %unwinds
...
unwinds:
%ex = call i8* @llvm.eh.exception()
...
In function @g:
...
invoke @something to label %continue unwind label %handler
...
handler:
%ex = call i8* @llvm.eh.exception()
... perform cleanups ...
"rethrow exception"
Now inline @g into @f. Currently this is turned into:
In function @f:
...
invoke @something to label %continue unwind label %handler
...
handler:
%ex = call i8* @llvm.eh.exception()
... perform cleanups ...
invoke "rethrow exception" to label %normal unwind label %unwinds
unwinds:
%ex = call i8* @llvm.eh.exception()
...
However we would like to simplify invoke of "rethrow exception" into
a branch to the %unwinds label. Then %unwinds is no longer a landing
pad, and the eh.exception call there is then far away from any landing
pads.
(2) Using the unwind instruction for cleanups.
It would be nice to have codegen handle the following case:
invoke @something to label %continue unwind label %run_cleanups
...
handler:
... perform cleanups ...
unwind
This requires turning "unwind" into a library call, which
necessarily takes a pointer to the exception as an argument
(this patch also does this unwind lowering). But that means
you are using eh.exception again far from a landing pad.
(3) Bugpoint simplifications. When bugpoint is simplifying
exception handling code it often generates eh.exception calls
far from a landing pad, which then causes codegen to assert.
Bugpoint then latches on to this assertion and loses sight
of the original problem.
Note that it is currently rare for this pass to actually do
anything. And in fact it normally shouldn't do anything at
all given the code coming out of llvm-gcc! But it does fire
a few times in the testsuite. As far as I can see this is
almost always due to the LoopStrengthReduce codegen pass
introducing pointless loop preheader blocks which are landing
pads and only contain a branch to another block. This other
block contains an eh.exception call. So probably by tweaking
LoopStrengthReduce a bit this can be avoided.

The following is checked:
* Operand counts: All explicit operands must be present.
* Register classes: All physical and virtual register operands must be
compatible with the register class required by the instruction descriptor.
* Register live intervals: Registers must be defined only once, and must be
defined before use.
The machine code verifier is enabled with the command-line option
'-verify-machineinstrs', or by defining the environment variable
LLVM_VERIFY_MACHINEINSTRS to the name of a file that will receive all the
verifier errors.

Massive check in. This changes the "-fast" flag to "-O#" in llc. If you want to
use the old behavior, the flag is -O0. This change allows for finer-grained
control over which optimizations are run at different -O levels.
Most of this work was pretty mechanical. The majority of the fixes came from
verifying that a "fast" variable wasn't used anymore. The JIT still uses a
"Fast" flag. I'll change the JIT with a follow-up patch.

- Use enums instead of magic numbers.
- Rework algorithm to use the bytes size from the target to determine when to
emit stack protectors.
- Get rid of "propolice" in any comments.
- Renamed an option to its expanded form.
- Other miscellanenous changes.
More changes will come after this.

* The prologue is modified to read the __stack_chk_guard global and insert it
onto the stack.
* The epilogue is modified to read the stored guard from the stack and compare
it to the original __stack_chk_guard value. If they differ, then the
__stack_chk_fail() function is called.
* The stack protector needs to be first on the stack (after the parameters) to
catch any stack-smashing activities.
Front-end support will follow after a round of beta testing.

target-independent code to target-specific code. This prevents it
from running on targets that aren't using fast-isel.
In addition to saving compile time, this addresses the problem
that not all targets are prepared for it. In order to use this
pass, all instructions must declare all their fixed uses and
defs of physical registers.

So now: -fast-isel or -fast-isel=true enable fast-isel, and
-fast-isel=false disables it. Fast-isel is also on by default
with -fast, and off by default otherwise.

In particular, Collector was confusing to implementors. Several
thought that this compile-time class was the place to implement
their runtime GC heap. Of course, it doesn't even exist at runtime.
Specifically, the renames are:
Collector -> GCStrategy
CollectorMetadata -> GCFunctionInfo
CollectorModuleMetadata -> GCModuleInfo
CollectorRegistry -> GCRegistry
Function::getCollector -> getGC (setGC, hasGC, clearGC)
Several accessors and nested types have also been renamed to be
consistent. These changes should be obvious.

review feedback.
-enable-eh is still accepted but doesn't do anything.
EH intrinsics use Dwarf EH if the target supports that,
and are handled by LowerInvoke otherwise.
The separation of the EH table and frame move data is,
I think, logically figured out, but either one still
causes full EH info to be generated (not sure how to
split the metadata correctly).
MachineModuleInfo::needsFrameInfo is no longer used and
is removed.

not marked nounwind, or for all functions when -enable-eh
is set, provided the target supports Dwarf EH.
llvm-gcc generates nounwind in the right places; other FEs
will need to do so also. Given such a FE, -enable-eh should
no longer be needed.
