For now, we will hardcode the result as 0.0 if the input is denormal or 0. That will
have the impact the precision. As the fsqrt added belong to the cold path of the
cmp+branch, it won't impact the performance for normal inputs for PowerPC, but improve
the precision if the input is denormal.

LLVM now tests it with smallest normalized value using abs + setcc. We should add hook to

tryLatency compares two sched candidates. For the top zone it prefers
the one with lesser depth, but only if that depth is greater than the
total latency of the instructions we've already scheduled -- otherwise
its latency would be hidden and there would be no stall.
Unfortunately it only tests the depth of one of the candidates. This can
lead to situations where the TopDepthReduce heuristic does not kick in,
but a lower priority heuristic chooses the other candidate, whose depth
*is* greater than the already scheduled latency, which causes a stall.
The fix is to apply the heuristic if the depth of *either* candidate is
greater than the already scheduled latency.
All this also applies to the BotHeightReduce heuristic in the bottom
zone.

Current implementation of division estimation isn't correct for some
cases like 1.0/0.0 (result is nan, not expected inf).
And this change exposes a potential infinite loop: we use

On PowerPC, FNMSUB (both VSX and non-VSX version) means -(a*b-c). But
the backend used to generate these instructions regardless whether nsz

These tests fail when the default is switched to assume IEEE denormal

This is a positive combination as long as the NEG is NOT free,

The single-constant algorithm produces infinities on a lot of denormal values.
The precision of the two-constant algorithm is actually sufficient across the
range of denormals. We will switch to that algorithm for now to avoid the
infinities on denormals. In the future, we will re-evaluate the algorithm to
find the optimal one for PowerPC.

The motivation for the change is that we can't have pseudo-global settings for
codegen living in TargetOptions because that doesn't work with LTO.
Ideally, these reciprocal attributes will be moved to the instruction-level via
FMF, metadata, or something else. But making them function attributes is at least
an improvement over the current state.
The ingredients of this patch are:
Remove the reciprocal estimate command-line debug option.
Add TargetRecip to TargetLowering.
Remove TargetRecip from TargetOptions.
Clean up the TargetRecip implementation to work with this new scheme.
Set the default reciprocal settings in TargetLoweringBase (everything is off).
Update the PowerPC defaults, users, and tests.
Update the x86 defaults, users, and tests.
Note that if this patch needs to be reverted, the related clang patch checked in
at r283251 should be reverted too.

r238842 added the TargetRecip system for controlling use of reciprocal

With VSX enabled, test/CodeGen/PowerPC/recipest.ll exposes a bug in
the FMA mutation pass. If we have a situation where a killed product
register is the same register as the FMA target, such as:
%vreg5<def,tied1> = XSNMSUBADP %vreg5<tied0>, %vreg11, %vreg5,
%RM<imp-use>; VSFRC:%vreg5 F8RC:%vreg11
then the substitution makes no sense. We end up getting a crash when
we try to extend the interval associated with the killed product
register, as there is already a live range for %vreg5 there. This
patch just disables the mutation under those circumstances.
Since recipest.ll generates different code with VMX enabled, I've
modified that test to use -mattr=-vsx. I've borrowed the code from
that test that exposed the bug and placed it in fma-mutate.ll, where
it tests several mutation opportunities including the "bad" one.

This patch changes the fast-math implementation for calculating sqrt(x) from:
y = 1 / (1 / sqrt(x))
to:
y = x * (1 / sqrt(x))
This has 2 benefits: less code / faster code and one less estimate instruction
that may lose precision.
The only target that will be affected (until http://reviews.llvm.org/D5658 is approved)
is PPC. The difference in codegen for PPC is 2 less flops for a single-precision sqrtf
or vector sqrtf and 4 less flops for a double-precision sqrt.
We also eliminate a constant load and extra register usage.

This is purely refactoring. No functional changes intended. PowerPC is the only target
that is currently using this interface.
The ultimate goal is to allow targets other than PowerPC (certainly X86 and Aarch64) to turn this:
z = y / sqrt(x)
into:
z = y * rsqrte(x)
And:
z = y / x
into:
z = y * rcpe(x)
using whatever HW magic they can use. See http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=20900 .
There is one hook in TargetLowering to get the target-specific opcode for an estimate instruction
along with the number of refinement steps needed to make the estimate usable.

We manage to generate all of the matching instructions (and a lot more) via
the reciprocal optimization function - even if we completely remove the square
root optimization. With CHECK_NEXT, we assure that we're executing the
expected square root optimization paths and not generating extra insts.

In fast-math mode sqrt(x) is calculated using the fast expansion of the
reciprocal of the reciprocal sqrt expansion. The reciprocal and reciprocal
sqrt expansions use the associated estimate instructions along with some Newton
iterations. Unfortunately, as a result, sqrt(0) was being calculated as NaN,
which is not correct. Now we explicitly return a result of zero if the input is
zero.

When unsafe FP math operations are enabled, we can use the fre[s] and
frsqrte[s] instructions, which generate reciprocal (sqrt) estimates, together
with some Newton iteration, in order to quickly generate floating-point
division and sqrt results. All of these instructions are separately optional,
and so each has its own feature flag (except for the Altivec instructions,
which are covered under the existing Altivec flag). Doing this is not only
faster than using the IEEE-compliant fdiv/fsqrt instructions, but allows these
computations to be pipelined with other computations in order to hide their
overall latency.
I've also added a couple of missing fnmsub patterns which turned out to be
missing (but are necessary for good code generation of the Newton iterations).
Altivec needs a similar fix, but that will probably be more complicated because
fneg is expanded for Altivec's v4f32.
