This patch provides basic support for powerpc64le as an LLVM target.
However, use of this target will not actually generate little-endian
code. Instead, use of the target will cause the correct little-endian
built-in defines to be generated, so that code that tests for
__LITTLE_ENDIAN__, for example, will be correctly parsed for
syntax-only testing. Code generation will otherwise be the same as
powerpc64 (big-endian), for now.
The patch leaves open the possibility of creating a little-endian
PowerPC64 back end, but there is no immediate intent to create such a
thing.
The LLVM portions of this patch simply add ppc64le coverage everywhere
that ppc64 coverage currently exists. There is nothing of any import
worth testing until such time as little-endian code generation is
implemented. In the corresponding Clang patch, there is a new test
case variant to ensure that correct built-in defines for little-endian
code are generated.

When asserts are enabled, this adds a verification pass for PPC counter-loop
formation. Unfortunately, without sacrificing code quality, there is no better
way of forming counter-based loops except at the (late) IR level. This means
that we need to recognize, at the IR level, anything which might turn into a
function call (or indirect branch). Because this is currently a finite set of
things, and because SelectionDAG lowering is basic-block local, this can be
done. Nevertheless, it is fragile, and failure results in a miscompile. This
verification pass checks that all (reachable) counter-based branches are
dominated by a loop mtctr instruction, and that no instructions in between
clobber the counter register. If these conditions are not satisfied, then an
ICE will be triggered.
In short, this is to help us sleep better at night.

The old PPCCTRLoops pass, like the Hexagon pass version from which it was
derived, could only handle some simple loops in canonical form. We cannot
directly adapt the new Hexagon hardware loops pass, however, because the
Hexagon pass contains a fundamental assumption that non-constant-trip-count
loops will contain a guard, and this is not always true (the result being that
incorrect negative counts can be generated). With this commit, we replace the
pass with a late IR-level pass which makes use of SE to calculate the
backedge-taken counts and safely generate the loop-count expressions (including
any necessary max() parts). This IR level pass inserts custom intrinsics that
are lowered into the desired decrement-and-branch instructions.
The most fragile part of this new implementation is that interfering uses of
the counter register must be detected on the IR level (and, on PPC, this also
includes any indirect branches in addition to function calls). Also, to make
all of this work, we need a variant of the mtctr instruction that is marked
as having side effects. Without this, machine-code level CSE, DCE, etc.
illegally transform the resulting code. Hopefully, this can be improved
in the future.
This new pass is smaller than the original (and much smaller than the new
Hexagon hardware loops pass), and can handle many additional cases correctly.
In addition, the preheader-creation code has been copied from LoopSimplify, and
after we decide on where it belongs, this code will be refactored so that it
can be explicitly shared (making this implementation even smaller).
The new test-case files ctrloop-{le,lt,ne}.ll have been adapted from tests for
the new Hexagon pass. There are a few classes of loops that this pass does not
transform (noted by FIXMEs in the files), but these deficiencies can be
addressed within the SE infrastructure (thus helping many other passes as well).

It was just a less powerful and more confusing version of
MCCFIInstruction. A side effect is that, since MCCFIInstruction uses
dwarf register numbers, calls to getDwarfRegNum are pushed out, which
should allow further simplifications.
I left the MachineModuleInfo::addFrameMove interface unchanged since
this patch was already fairly big.

This enables us to form predicated branches (which are the same conditional
branches we had before) and also a larger set of predicated returns (including
instructions like bdnzlr which is a conditional return and loop-counter
decrement all in one).
At the moment, if conversion does not capture all possible opportunities. A
simple example is provided in early-ret2.ll, where if conversion forms one
predicated return, and then the PPCEarlyReturn pass picks up the other one. So,
at least for now, we'll keep both mechanisms.

PowerPC has a conditional branch to the link register (return) instruction: BCLR.
This should be used any time when we'd otherwise have a conditional branch to a
return. This adds a small pass, PPCEarlyReturn, which runs just prior to the
branch selection pass (and, importantly, after block placement) to generate
these conditional returns when possible. It will also eliminate unconditional
branches to returns (these happen rarely; most of the time these have already
been tail duplicated by the time PPCEarlyReturn is invoked). This is a nice
optimization for small functions that do not maintain a stack frame.

On cores for which we know the misprediction penalty, and we have
the isel instruction, we can profitably perform early if conversion.
This enables us to replace some small branch sequences with selects
and avoid the potential stalls from mispredicting the branches.
Enabling this feature required implementing canInsertSelect and
insertSelect in PPCInstrInfo; isel code in PPCISelLowering was
refactored to use these functions as well.

This provides a place to add customized operation cost information and

a TargetMachine to construct (and thus isn't always available), to an
analysis group that supports layered implementations much like
AliasAnalysis does. This is a pretty massive change, with a few parts
that I was unable to easily separate (sorry), so I'll walk through it.
The first step of this conversion was to make TargetTransformInfo an
analysis group, and to sink the nonce implementations in
ScalarTargetTransformInfo and VectorTargetTranformInfo into
a NoTargetTransformInfo pass. This allows other passes to add a hard
requirement on TTI, and assume they will always get at least on
implementation.
The TargetTransformInfo analysis group leverages the delegation chaining
trick that AliasAnalysis uses, where the base class for the analysis
group delegates to the previous analysis *pass*, allowing all but tho
NoFoo analysis passes to only implement the parts of the interfaces they
support. It also introduces a new trick where each pass in the group
retains a pointer to the top-most pass that has been initialized. This
allows passes to implement one API in terms of another API and benefit
when some other pass above them in the stack has more precise results
for the second API.
The second step of this conversion is to create a pass that implements
the TargetTransformInfo analysis using the target-independent
abstractions in the code generator. This replaces the
ScalarTargetTransformImpl and VectorTargetTransformImpl classes in
lib/Target with a single pass in lib/CodeGen called
BasicTargetTransformInfo. This class actually provides most of the TTI
functionality, basing it upon the TargetLowering abstraction and other
information in the target independent code generator.
The third step of the conversion adds support to all TargetMachines to
register custom analysis passes. This allows building those passes with
access to TargetLowering or other target-specific classes, and it also
allows each target to customize the set of analysis passes desired in
the pass manager. The baseline LLVMTargetMachine implements this
interface to add the BasicTTI pass to the pass manager, and all of the
tools that want to support target-aware TTI passes call this routine on
whatever target machine they end up with to add the appropriate passes.
The fourth step of the conversion created target-specific TTI analysis
passes for the X86 and ARM backends. These passes contain the custom
logic that was previously in their extensions of the
ScalarTargetTransformInfo and VectorTargetTransformInfo interfaces.
I separated them into their own file, as now all of the interface bits
are private and they just expose a function to create the pass itself.
Then I extended these target machines to set up a custom set of analysis
passes, first adding BasicTTI as a fallback, and then adding their
customized TTI implementations.
The fourth step required logic that was shared between the target
independent layer and the specific targets to move to a different
interface, as they no longer derive from each other. As a consequence,
a helper functions were added to TargetLowering representing the common
logic needed both in the target implementation and the codegen
implementation of the TTI pass. While technically this is the only
change that could have been committed separately, it would have been
a nightmare to extract.
The final step of the conversion was just to delete all the old
boilerplate. This got rid of the ScalarTargetTransformInfo and
VectorTargetTransformInfo classes, all of the support in all of the
targets for producing instances of them, and all of the support in the
tools for manually constructing a pass based around them.
Now that TTI is a relatively normal analysis group, two things become
straightforward. First, we can sink it into lib/Analysis which is a more
natural layer for it to live. Second, clients of this interface can
depend on it *always* being available which will simplify their code and
behavior. These (and other) simplifications will follow in subsequent
commits, this one is clearly big enough.
Finally, I'm very aware that much of the comments and documentation
needs to be updated. As soon as I had this working, and plausibly well
commented, I wanted to get it committed and in front of the build bots.
I'll be doing a few passes over documentation later if it sticks.
Commits to update DragonEgg and Clang will be made presently.

Sooooo many of these had incorrect or strange main module includes.
I have manually inspected all of these, and fixed the main module
include to be the nearest plausible thing I could find. If you own or
care about any of these source files, I encourage you to take some time
and check that these edits were sensible. I can't have broken anything
(I strictly added headers, and reordered them, never removed), but they
may not be the headers you'd really like to identify as containing the
API being implemented.
Many forward declarations and missing includes were added to a header
files to allow them to parse cleanly when included first. The main
module rule does in fact have its merits. =]

Tail merging had been disabled on PPC because it would disturb bundling decisions
made during pre-RA scheduling on the 970 cores. Now, however, all bundling decisions
are made during post-RA scheduling, and tail merging is generally beneficial (the
average test-suite speedup is insignificantly positive).
Largest test-suite speedups:

The pass itself works well, but the something in the Machine* infrastructure
does not understand terminators which define registers. Without the ability
to use the block-placement pass, etc. this causes performance regressions (and
so is turned off by default). Turning off the analysis turns off the problems
with the Machine* infrastructure.
