when the subtarget has fast strings.
This has two advantages:
- Speed is improved. For example, on Haswell thoughput improvements increase
linearly with size from 256 to 512 bytes, after which they plateau:
(e.g. 1% for 260 bytes, 25% for 400 bytes, 40% for 508 bytes).
- Code is much smaller (no need to handle boundaries).

Summary:
Sandy Bridge and later CPUs have better throughput using a SHLD to implement rotate versus the normal rotate instructions. Additionally it saves one uop and avoids a partial flag update dependency.
This patch implements this change on any Sandy Bridge or later processor without BMI2 instructions. With BMI2 we will use RORX as we currently do.

This patch does the following.
1. Adds an Intrinsic int_x86_clzero which works with __builtin_ia32_clzero
2. Identifies clzero feature using cpuid info. (Function:8000_0008, Checks if EBX[0]=1)
3. Adds the clzero feature under znver1 architecture.
4. The custom inserter is added in Lowering.
5. A testcase is added to check the intrinsic.
6. The clzero instruction is added to assembler test.
Patch by Ganesh Gopalasubramanian with a couple formatting tweaks, a disassembler test, and using update_llc_test.py from me.

Summary:
Attaching !absolute_symbol to a global variable does two things:
1) Marks it as an absolute symbol reference.
2) Specifies the value range of that symbol's address.
Teach the X86 backend to allow absolute symbols to appear in place of
immediates by extending the relocImm and mov64imm32 matchers. Start using
relocImm in more places where it is legal.

This change adds transformations such as:
zext(or(setcc(eq, (cmp x, 0)), setcc(eq, (cmp y, 0))))
To:
srl(or(ctlz(x), ctlz(y)), log2(bitsize(x))
This optimisation is beneficial on Jaguar architecture only, where lzcnt has a good reciprocal throughput.
Other architectures such as Intel's Haswell/Broadwell or AMD's Bulldozer/PileDriver do not benefit from it.
For this reason the change also adds a "HasFastLZCNT" feature which gets enabled for Jaguar.

On modern Intel processors hardware SQRT in many cases is faster than RSQRT
followed by Newton-Raphson refinement. The patch introduces a simple heuristic
to choose between hardware SQRT instruction and Newton-Raphson software
estimation.
The patch treats scalars and vectors differently. The heuristic is that for
scalars the compiler should optimize for latency while for vectors it should
optimize for throughput. It is based on the assumption that throughput bound
code is likely to be vectorized.
Basically, the patch disables scalar NR for big cores and disables NR completely
for Skylake. Firstly, scalar SQRT has shorter latency than NR code in big cores.
Secondly, vector SQRT has been greatly improved in Skylake and has better
throughput compared to NR.

This refactors the logic in X86 to avoid code duplication. It also
splits it in two steps: it first decides if a symbol is local to the DSO
and then uses that information to decide how to access it.
The first part is implemented by shouldAssumeDSOLocal. It is not in any
way specific to X86. In a followup patch I intend to move it to
somewhere common and reused it in other backends.

Summary:
MONITORX/MWAITX instructions provide similar capability to the MONITOR/MWAIT
pair while adding a timer function, such that another termination of the MWAITX
instruction occurs when the timer expires. The presence of the MONITORX and
MWAITX instructions is indicated by CPUID 8000_0001, ECX, bit 29.
The MONITORX and MWAITX instructions are intercepted by the same bits that
intercept MONITOR and MWAIT. MONITORX instruction establishes a range to be
monitored. MWAITX instruction causes the processor to stop instruction execution
and enter an implementation-dependent optimized state until occurrence of a
class of events.
Opcode of MONITORX instruction is "0F 01 FA". Opcode of MWAITX instruction is
"0F 01 FB". These opcode information is used in adding tests for the
disassembler.
These instructions are enabled for AMD's bdver4 architecture.

its own variable.
This is needed so that we can explicitly turn off MMX without turning
off SSE and also so that we can diagnose feature set incompatibilities
that involve MMX without SSE.
Rationale:
// sse3
__m128d test_mm_addsub_pd(__m128d A, __m128d B) {
return _mm_addsub_pd(A, B);
}
// mmx
void shift(__m64 a, __m64 b, int c) {
_mm_slli_pi16(a, c);
_mm_slli_pi32(a, c);
_mm_slli_si64(a, c);
_mm_srli_pi16(a, c);
_mm_srli_pi32(a, c);
_mm_srli_si64(a, c);
_mm_srai_pi16(a, c);
_mm_srai_pi32(a, c);
}
clang -msse3 -mno-mmx file.c -c
For this code we should be able to explicitly turn off MMX
without affecting the compilation of the SSE3 function and then
diagnose and error on compiling the MMX function.
This matches the existing gcc behavior and follows the spirit of
the SSE/MMX separation in llvm where we can (and do) turn off
MMX code generation except in the presence of intrinsics.
Updated a couple of tests, but primarily tested with a couple of tests
for turning on only mmx and only sse.
This is paired with a patch to clang to take advantage of this behavior.

Summary:
This is the first patch in the series to migrate Triple's (which are ambiguous)
to TargetTuple's (which aren't).
For the moment, TargetTuple simply passes all requests to the Triple object it
holds. Once it has replaced Triple, it will start to implement the interface in
a more suitable way.
This change makes some changes to the public C++ API. In particular,
InitMCSubtargetInfo(), createMCRelocationInfo(), and createMCSymbolizer()
now take TargetTuples instead of Triples. The other public C++ API's have
been left as-is for the moment to reduce patch size.
This commit also contains a trivial patch to clang to account for the C++ API
change. Thanks go to Pavel Labath for fixing LLDB for me.

This is a follow-on from the discussion in http://reviews.llvm.org/D12154.
This change allows memset/memcpy to use SSE or AVX memory accesses for any chip that has
generally fast unaligned memory ops.
A motivating use case for this change is a clang invocation that doesn't explicitly set
the CPU, but does target a feature that we know only exists on a CPU that supports fast
unaligned memops. For example:
$ clang -O1 foo.c -mavx
This resolves a difference in lowering noted in PR24449:
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=24449
Before this patch, we used different store types depending on whether the example can be
lowered as a memset or not.

This is a 'no functional change intended' patch. It removes one FIXME, but adds several more.
Motivation: the FeatureFastUAMem attribute may be too general. It is used to determine if any
sized misaligned memory access under 32-bytes is 'fast'. From the added FIXME comments, however,
you can see that we're not consistent about this. Changing the name of the attribute makes it
clearer to see the logic holes.
Changing this to a 'slow' attribute also means we don't have to add an explicit 'fast' attribute
to new chips; fast unaligned accesses have been standard for several generations of CPUs now.
