When a block is unreachable, asking its dom tree descendants should
return the empty set. However, the computation of the descendants
was causing a segmentation fault because the dom tree node we get
from the basic block is initially NULL.
Fixed by adding a test for a valid dom tree node before we iterate.
The patch also adds some unit tests to the existing dom tree tests.

to be a bit more sensible. The public interface now is first followed by
the implementation details.
This also resolves a FIXME to make something private -- it was already
possible as the one special caller was already a friend.
No functionality changed.

eliminateFrameIndex() has been reworked to handle both small & large frames
with either a FP or SP.
An additional Slot is required for Scavenging spills when not using FP for large frames.
Reworked the handling of Register Scavenging.
Whether we are using an FP or not, whether it is a large frame or not,
and whether we are using a large code model or not are now independent.

These are used by MachO only at the moment, and (much like the existing
MOVW/MOVT set) work around the fact that the labels used in the actual
instructions often contain PC-dependent components, which means that repeatedly
materialising the same global can't be CSEed.
With small modifications, it could be adapted to how ELF finds the address of
_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_, which would give similar benefits in PIC mode there.

When using large code model:
Global objects larger than 'CodeModelLargeSize' bytes are placed in sections named with a trailing ".large"
The folded global address of such objects are lowered into the const pool.
During inspection it was noted that LowerConstantPool() was using a default offset of zero.
A fix was made, but due to only offsets of zero being generated, testing only verifies the change is not detrimental.
Correct the flags emitted for explicitly specified sections.
We assume the size of the object queried by getSectionForConstant() is never greater than CodeModelLargeSize.
To handle greater than CodeModelLargeSize, changes to AsmPrinter would be required.

Large frame offsets are loaded from the ConstantPool.
Where possible, offsets are encoded using the smaller MKMSK instruction.
Large frame offsets can only be used when there is a frame-pointer.

* Update build instructions to reflect the current source tree layout.
* Don't inflict CVS on readers; there's a perfectly good git mirror.
* configure with --disable-werror making it possible to build using clang.
* ar and nm-new now support the -plugin option.

Previously, we clobbered callee-saved registers when folding an "add
sp, #N" into a "pop {rD, ...}" instruction. This change checks whether
a register we're going to add to the "pop" could actually be live
outside the function before doing so and should fix the issue.
This should fix PR18081.

- Actually abort when an error occurred.
- Check that the frontend lookup worked when parsing length/size/type operators.
Tested by a clang test. PR18096.

This adds a scheduling model for the POWER7 (P7) core, and enables the
machine-instruction scheduler when targeting the P7. Scheduling for the P7,
like earlier ooo PPC cores, requires considering both dispatch group hazards,
and functional unit resources and latencies. These are both modeled in a
combined itinerary. Dispatch group formation is still handled by the post-RA
scheduler (which still needs to be updated for the P7, but nevertheless does a
pretty good job).
One interesting aspect of this change is that I've also enabled to use of AA
duing CodeGen for the P7 (just as it is for the embedded cores). The benchmark
results seem to support this decision (see below), and while this is normally
useful for in-order cores, and not for ooo cores like the P7, I think that the
dispatch slot hazards are enough like in-order resources to make the AA useful.
Test suite significant performance differences (where negative is a speedup,
and positive is a regression) vs. the current situation:

These are 99.5% confidence intervals from 5 runs per configuration. Regarding
the choice to turn on AA during CodeGen, of these results, four seem
significantly in favor of using AA, and one seems significantly against. I'm
not making this decision based on these numbers alone, but these results
seem consistent with results I have from other tests, and so I think that, on
balance, using AA is a win.

In preparation for adding scheduling definitions for the POWER7, split some PPC
itinerary classes so that the P7's latencies and hazards can be better
described. For the most part, this means differentiating indexed from non-index
pre-increment loads and stores. Also, differentiate single from
double-precision sqrt.
No functionality change intended (except for a more-specific latency for
single-precision sqrt on the A2).

Convert this test to FileCheck, and improve it to check for the instructions it
is trying to exclude instead of checking for register use (especially because
grepping for r1 can be thrown off, for example, by a use of r12).

Some of these tests did not specify a cpu but were also sensitive to
instruction scheduling and/or register assignment choices. A few others
similarly-sensitive tests specified a cpu (often the POWER7), and while the P7
currently uses the default model for PPC64, this will soon change. For those
tests which should not really be cpu-dependent anyway, the cpu is set to the
generic 'ppc64'.

in constant islands for Mips16. We introdcuce JalB16 as a synomnym
for Jal16. It makes it easier to read and is also necessary because
Jal16 is a call instruction but JalB16 is being used as a branch.
Various parts of LLVM will not work properly even in this late stage of
the backend if we use what was declared as a call instruction to function
as a branch. For one, basic block labels may not get emitted in some
situations.
