the processor keeps a return addresses stack (RAS) which stores the address
and the instruction execution state of the instruction after a function-call
type branch instruction.
Calling a "noreturn" function with normal call instructions (e.g. bl) can
corrupt RAS and causes 100% return misprediction so LLVM should use a
unconditional branch instead. i.e.
mov lr, pc
b _foo
The "mov lr, pc" is issued in order to get proper backtrace.

The failure seen on win32, when i64 type is illegal.
It happens on stage of conversion VECTOR_SHUFFLE to BUILD_VECTOR.
The failure message is:
llc: SelectionDAG.cpp:784: void VerifyNodeCommon(llvm::SDNode*): Assertion `(I->getValueType() == EltVT || (EltVT.isInteger() && I->getValueType().isInteger() && EltVT.bitsLE(I->getValueType()))) && "Wrong operand type!"' failed.
I added a special test that checks vector shuffle on win32.

undefined result. This adds new ISD nodes for the new semantics,
selecting them when the LLVM intrinsic indicates that the undef behavior
is desired. The new nodes expand trivially to the old nodes, so targets
don't actually need to do anything to support these new nodes besides
indicating that they should be expanded. I've done this for all the
operand types that I could figure out for all the targets. Owners of
various targets, please review and let me know if any of these are
incorrect.
Note that the expand behavior is *conservatively correct*, and exactly
matches LLVM's current behavior with these operations. Ideally this
patch will not change behavior in any way. For example the regtest suite
finds the exact same instruction sequences coming out of the code
generator. That's why there are no new tests here -- all of this is
being exercised by the existing test suite.
Thanks to Duncan Sands for reviewing the various bits of this patch and
helping me get the wrinkles ironed out with expanding for each target.
Also thanks to Chris for clarifying through all the discussions that
this is indeed the approach he was looking for. That said, there are
likely still rough spots. Further review much appreciated.

When this field is true it means that the load is from constant (runt-time or compile-time) and so can be hoisted from loops or moved around other memory accesses

calling-convention resource, to avoid spurious conflicts with
actual uses of SP. Also, fix unscheduling of calling sequences,
which can be triggered by pseudo-two-address dependencies.

it fixes the dragonegg self-host (it looks like gcc is miscompiled).
Original commit messages:
Eliminate LegalizeOps' LegalizedNodes map and have it just call RAUW
on every node as it legalizes them. This makes it easier to use
hasOneUse() heuristics, since unneeded nodes can be removed from the
DAG earlier.
Make LegalizeOps visit the DAG in an operands-last order. It previously
used operands-first, because LegalizeTypes has to go operands-first, and
LegalizeTypes used to be part of LegalizeOps, but they're now split.
The operands-last order is more natural for several legalization tasks.
For example, it allows lowering code for nodes with floating-point or
vector constants to see those constants directly instead of seeing the
lowered form (often constant-pool loads). This makes some things
somewhat more complicated today, though it ought to allow things to be
simpler in the future. It also fixes some bugs exposed by Legalizing
using RAUW aggressively.
Remove the part of LegalizeOps that attempted to patch up invalid chain
operands on libcalls generated by LegalizeTypes, since it doesn't work
with the new LegalizeOps traversal order. Instead, define what
LegalizeTypes is doing to be correct, and transfer the responsibility
of keeping calls from having overlapping calling sequences into the
scheduler.
Teach the scheduler to model callseq_begin/end pairs as having a
physical register definition/use to prevent calls from having
overlapping calling sequences. This is also somewhat complicated, though
there are ways it might be simplified in the future.

When generating the trunc-store of i1's, we need to use the vector type and not
the scalar type.

init.trampoline and adjust.trampoline intrinsics, into two intrinsics
like in GCC. While having one combined intrinsic is tempting, it is
not natural because typically the trampoline initialization needs to
be done in one function, and the result of adjust trampoline is needed
in a different (nested) function. To get around this llvm-gcc hacks the
nested function lowering code to insert an additional parent variable
holding the adjust.trampoline result that can be accessed from the child
function. Dragonegg doesn't have the luxury of tweaking GCC code, so it
stored the result of adjust.trampoline in the memory GCC set aside for
the trampoline itself (this is always available in the child function),
and set up some new memory (using an alloca) to hold the trampoline.
Unfortunately this breaks Go which allocates trampoline memory on the
heap and wants to use it even after the parent has exited (!). Rather
than doing even more hacks to get Go working, it seemed best to just use
two intrinsics like in GCC. Patch mostly by Sanjoy Das.

I don't really like the patterns, but I'm having trouble coming up with a
better way to handle them.
I plan on making other targets use the same legalization
ARM-without-memory-barriers is using... it's not especially efficient, but
if anyone cares, it's not that hard to fix for a given target if there's
some better lowering.

types (with power of two types such as 8,16,32 .. 512).
Fix a bug in the integer promotion of bitcast nodes. Enable integer expanding
only if the target of the conversion is an integer (when the type action is
scalarize).
Add handling to the legalization of vector load/store in cases where the saved
vector is integer-promoted.
