History
Duraid Madina 25d0a88eb8 add some FP stuff, some mix.* stuff, and constant pool support to the 
DAG instruction selector, which should be destroyed one day (in the pattern
isel also) since ia64 can pack any constant in the instruction stream

DISCLAIMER AND PROMISE:

As of the time of this release, you are probably better off using Intel C/C++
or GCC. The performance of the code emitted right now is, in a word,
terrible. Check back in a few months - the story will be different then,
I guarantee it.

TODO:

  - clean up and thoroughly test the isel patterns.
  - fix stacked register allocation order: (for readability) we don't want
    the out? registers being the first ones used
  - fix up floating point
    (nb http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki?pagename=ia64%20floating%20point )
  - bundling!
    (we will avoid the mess that is:
     http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2003-12/msg00832.html )
  - instruction scheduling (yep)
  - write truly inspirational documentation
  - if-conversion (predicate database/knowledge? etc etc)
  - counted loop support
  - make integer + FP mul/div more clever (we have fixed pseudocode atm)
  - track and use comparison complements

INFO:

  - we are strictly LP64 here, no support for ILP32 on HP-UX. Linux users
    don't need to worry about this.
  - i have instruction scheduling/bundling pseudocode, that really works
    (has been tested, albeit at the perl-script level).
    so, before you go write your own, send me an email!

KNOWN DEFECTS AT THE CURRENT TIME:

  - C++ vtables contain naked function pointers, not function descriptors,
  which is bad. see http://llvm.cs.uiuc.edu/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=406
  - varargs are broken
  - alloca doesn't work (indeed, stack frame layout is bogus)
  - no support for big-endian environments
  - (not really the backend, but...) the CFE has some issues on IA64.
    these will probably be fixed soon.
