IA64ISelDAGToDAG.cpp	Dwarf requires variable entries to be in the source order. Right now, since we are recording variable information at isel time this means parameters would appear in the reverse order. The short term fix is to issue recordVariable() at asm printing time instead.	2008-02-04 23:06:48 +00:00

TODO:
  - Un-bitrot ISel
  - Hook up If-Conversion a la ARM target
  - Hook up all branch analysis functions
  - Instruction scheduling
  - Bundling
  - Dynamic Optimization
  - Testing and bugfixing
  - stop passing FP args in both FP *and* integer regs when not required
  - allocate low (nonstacked) registers more aggressively
  - 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 (hmmmm! ;)
  - 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.
