Setting the preffered function alignment to 16 for Cortex A53/A55
improves performance in a wide range of benchmarks. This brings it
in line with the Cortex-A53/A55 tuning that is used in GCC
(gcc/config/aarch64/aarch64.c).

This is similar to D69796 from the ARM backend. We remove the UseAA
feature, enabling it globally in the AArch64 backend. This should in
general be an improvement allowing the backend to reorder more
instructions in scheduling and codegen, and enabling it by default helps
to improve the testing of the feature, not making it cpu-specific. A
debugging option is added instead for testing.

This CPU supports all v8.5a features except BTI, and so identifies as v8.5a to
Clang. A bit weird, but the best way for things like xnu to detect the new
features it cares about.
Basic support of A64FX was added in D75594 but its scheduling model
was missing. This commit adds the scheduling model. Also, this commit
amends/adds some subtarget parameters of A64FX.

This patch implements initial backend support for a -mtune CPU controlled by a "tune-cpu" function attribute. If the attribute is not present X86 will use the resolved CPU from target-cpu attribute or command line.
This patch adds MC layer support a tune CPU. Each CPU now has two sets of features stored in their GenSubtargetInfo.inc tables . These features lists are passed separately to the Processor and ProcessorModel classes in tablegen. The tune list defaults to an empty list to avoid changes to non-X86. This annoyingly increases the size of static tables on all target as we now store 24 more bytes per CPU. I haven't quantified the overall impact, but I can if we're concerned.
One new test is added to X86 to show a few tuning features with mismatched tune-cpu and target-cpu/target-feature attributes to demonstrate independent control. Another new test is added to demonstrate that the scheduler model follows the tune CPU.
I have not added a -mtune to llc/opt or MC layer command line yet. With no attributes we'll just use the -mcpu for both. MC layer tools will always follow the normal CPU for tuning.

Apple's CPUs are called A7-A13 in official communication, occasionally with
weird suffixes which we probably don't need to care about. This adds each one
and describes its features. It also switches the default CPU to the canonical
name for Cyclone, but leaves legacy support in so that existing bitcode still
compiles.
As the extern_weak target might be missing, resolving to the absolute
address zero, we can't use the normal direct PC-relative branch
instructions (as that would result in relocations out of range).
Improve the classifyGlobalFunctionReference method to set
MO_DLLIMPORT/MO_COFFSTUB, and simplify the existing code in
AArch64TargetLowering::LowerCall to use the return value from
classifyGlobalFunctionReference for these cases.
Add code in both AArch64FastISel and GlobalISel/IRTranslator to
bail out for function calls to extern weak functions on windows,
to let SelectionDAG handle them.
This matches what was done for X86 in 6bf108d77a.

Modern processors predict the targets of an indirect branch regardless of
the size of any jump table used to glean its target address. Moreover,
branch predictors typically use resources limited by the number of actual
targets that occur at run time.
This patch changes the semantics of the option `-max-jump-table-size` to limit
the number of different targets instead of the number of entries in a jump
table. Thus, it is now renamed to `-max-jump-table-targets`.
Before, when `-max-jump-table-size` was specified, it could happen that
cluster jump tables could have targets used repeatedly, but each one was
counted and typically resulted in tables with the same number of entries.
With this patch, when specifying `-max-jump-table-targets`, tables may have
different lengths, since the number of unique targets is counted towards the
limit, but the number of unique targets in tables is the same, but for the
last one containing the balance of targets.

Summary:
This patch renames functions that takes or returns alignment as log2, this patch will help with the transition to llvm::Align.
The renaming makes it explicit that we deal with log(alignment) instead of a power of two alignment.
A few renames uncovered dubious assignments:
- `MirParser`/`MirPrinter` was expecting powers of two but `MachineFunction` and `MachineBasicBlock` were using deal with log2(align). This patch fixes it and updates the documentation.
- `MachineBlockPlacement` exposes two flags (`align-all-blocks` and `align-all-nofallthru-blocks`) supposedly interpreted as power of two alignments, internally these values are interpreted as log2(align). This patch updates the documentation,
- `MachineFunctionexposes` exposes `align-all-functions` also interpreted as power of two alignment, internally this value is interpreted as log2(align). This patch updates the documentation,

Currently we can't keep any state in the selector object that we get from
subtarget. As a result we have to plumb through all our variables through
multiple functions. This change makes it non-const and adds a virtual init()
method to allow further state to be captured for each target.
AArch64 makes use of this in this patch to cache a call to hasFnAttribute()
which is expensive to call, and is used on each selection of G_BRCOND.

Summary:
The Arm Neoverse N1 Software Optimization Guide [1], Section "4.8 Branch
instruction alignment" states:
"Consider aligning subroutine entry points and branch targets to 32B
boundaries, within the bounds of the code-density requirements of the
program."
This patch sets the preferred function alignment on Neoverse N1 to 2^4=16B.
This was already the case in some of the latest Cortex-A CPUs. Benchmarking
in previous Cortex-A CPUs suggested that 16B alignment is already better
than the default. See commit d04ee305.
The reason we don't set it to 32B right now (as the optimisation guide
suggests) is that this will impact code size and perhaps the instruction
cache performance. Therefore we need benchmark numbers first.
I have also added testing for A75 and A76 that we were missing.

This feature instructs the backend to allow locally defined global variable
addresses to contain a pointer tag in bits 56-63 that will be ignored by
the hardware (i.e. TBI), but may be used by an instrumentation pass such
as HWASAN. It works by adding a MOVK instruction to the regular ADRP/ADD
sequence that sets bits 48-63 to the corresponding bits of the global, with
the linker bounds check disabled on the ADRP instruction to prevent the tag
from causing a link failure.
This implementation of the feature omits the MOVK when loading from or storing
to a global, which is sufficient for TBI. If the same approach is extended
to MTE, assuming that 0 is not configured as a catch-all tag, we will most
likely also need the MOVK in this case in order to avoid a tag mismatch.

We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of

This adds the plumbing for the Tiny code model for the AArch64 backend. This,
instead of loading addresses through the normal ADRP;ADD pair used in the Small
model, uses a single ADR. The 21 bit range of an ADR means that the code and
its statically defined symbols need to be within 1MB of each other.
This makes it mostly interesting for embedded applications where we want to fit
as much as we can in as small a space as possible.

The implementation of shadow call stack on aarch64 is quite different to
the implementation on x86_64. Instead of reserving a segment register for
the shadow call stack, we reserve the platform register, x18. Any function
that spills lr to sp also spills it to the shadow call stack, a pointer to
which is stored in x18.

Re-commit of r322200: The testcase shouldn't hit machineverifiers
anymore with r322917 in place.
Large callframes (calls with several hundreds or thousands or
parameters) could lead to situations in which the emergency spillslot is
out of range to be addressed relative to the stack pointer.
This commit forces the use of a frame pointer in the presence of large
callframes.
This commit does several things:
- Compute max callframe size at the end of instruction selection.
- Add mirFileLoaded target callback. Use it to compute the max callframe size
after loading a .mir file when the size wasn't specified in the file.
- Let TargetFrameLowering::hasFP() return true if there exists a
callframe > 255 bytes.
- Always place the emergency spillslot close to FP if we have a frame
pointer.
- Note that `useFPForScavengingIndex()` would previously return false
when a base pointer was available leading to the emergency spillslot
getting allocated late (that's the whole effect of this callback).
Which made no sense to me so I took this case out: Even though the
emergency spillslot is technically not referenced by FP in this case
we still want it allocated early.
