LLVM backend for 6502

This implements SJLJ lowering on PPC, making the Clang functions __builtin_{setjmp/longjmp} functional on PPC platforms. The implementation strategy is similar to that on X86, with the exception that a branch-and-link variant is used to get the right jump address. Credit goes to Bill Schmidt for suggesting the use of the unconditional bcl form (instead of the regular bl instruction) to limit return-address-cache pollution. Benchmarking the speed at -O3 of: static jmp_buf env_sigill; void foo() { __builtin_longjmp(env_sigill,1); } main() { ... for (int i = 0; i < c; ++i) { if (__builtin_setjmp(env_sigill)) { goto done; } else { foo(); } done:; } ... } vs. the same code using the libc setjmp/longjmp functions on a P7 shows that this builtin implementation is ~4x faster with Altivec enabled and ~7.25x faster with Altivec disabled. This comparison is somewhat unfair because the libc version must also save/restore the VSX registers which we don't yet support. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@177666 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8 |
