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.

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

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

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.

ARM Neon has native support for half-sized vector registers (64 bits). This
is beneficial for example for 2D and 3D graphics. This patch adds the option
to lower MinVecRegSize from 128 via a TTI in the SLP Vectorizer.
*** Performance Analysis
This change was motivated by some internal benchmarks but it is also
beneficial on SPEC and the LLVM testsuite.
The results are with -O3 and PGO. A negative percentage is an improvement.
The testsuite was run with a sample size of 4.
** SPEC
* CFP2006/482.sphinx3 -3.34%
A pretty hot loop is SLP vectorized resulting in nice instruction reduction.
This used to be a +22% regression before rL299482.
* CFP2000/177.mesa -3.34%
* CINT2000/256.bzip2 +6.97%
My current plan is to extend the fix in rL299482 to i16 which brings the
regression down to +2.5%. There are also other problems with the codegen in
this loop so there is further room for improvement.
** LLVM testsuite
* SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc/ReedSolomon -10.75%
There are multiple small SLP vectorizations outside the hot code. It's a bit
surprising that it adds up to 10%. Some of this may be code-layout noise.
* MultiSource/Benchmarks/VersaBench/beamformer/beamformer -8.40%
The opt-viewer screenshot can be seen at F3218284. We start at a colder store
but the tree leads us into the hottest loop.
* MultiSource/Applications/lambda-0.1.3/lambda -2.68%
* MultiSource/Benchmarks/Bullet/bullet -2.18%
This is using 3D vectors.
* SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout-C++/Shootout-C++-lists +6.67%
Noise, binary is unchanged.
* MultiSource/Benchmarks/Ptrdist/anagram/anagram +4.90%
There is an additional SLP in the cold code. The test runs for ~1sec and
prints out over 2000 lines. This is most likely noise.
* MultiSource/Applications/aha/aha +1.63%

Summary:
Predicate<> now has a field to indicate how often it must be recomputed.
Currently, there are two frequencies, per-module (RecomputePerFunction==0)
and per-function (RecomputePerFunction==1). Per-function predicates are
currently recomputed more frequently than necessary since the only predicate
in this category is cheap to test. Per-module predicates are now computed in
getSubtargetImpl() while per-function predicates are computed in selectImpl().
Tablegen now manages the PredicateBitset internally. It should only be
necessary to add the required includes.

constrainSelectedInstRegOperands() would attempt to tie operands that
BuildMI had already tied.

Testing for specific CPUs has a number of problems, better use subtarget
features:
- When some tweak is added for a specific CPU it is often desirable for
the next version of that CPU as well, yet we often forget to add it.
- It is hard to keep track of checks scattered around the target code;
Declaring all target specifics together with the CPU in the tablegen
file is a clear representation.
- Subtarget features can be tweaked from the command line.
To discourage people from using CPU checks in the future I removed the
isCortexXX(), isCyclone(), ... functions. I added an getProcFamily()
function for exceptional circumstances but made it clear in the comment
that usage is discouraged.

This is the first patch in the series to migrate Triple's (which are ambiguous)

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.

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.

This matches the ARM behavior. In both cases, the register is part
of the optional Performance Monitors extension, so, add the feature,
and enable it for the A-class processors we support.

This commit defines subtarget feature strict-align and uses it instead of
cl::opt -aarch64-strict-align to decide whether strict alignment should be
forced.

whether register x18 should be reserved.
This change is needed because we cannot use a backend option to set
cl::opt "aarch64-reserve-x18" when doing LTO.
Out-of-tree projects currently using cl::opt option "-aarch64-reserve-x18"
to reserve x18 should make changes to add subtarget feature "reserve-x18"
to the IR.

Summary:
Remove empty subclass in the process.
This change is part of a series of commits dedicated to have a single
DataLayout during compilation by using always the one owned by the
module.

From the linker's perspective, an available_externally global is equivalent
to an external declaration (per isDeclarationForLinker()), so it is incorrect
to consider it to be a weak definition.
Also clean up some logic in the dead argument elimination pass and clarify
its comments to better explain how its behavior depends on linkage,
introduce GlobalValue::isStrongDefinitionForLinker() and start using
it throughout the optimizers and backend.

as we don't necessarily need to do this yet - though we could move
the base class to the TargetMachine as it isn't subtarget dependent.
This reverts commit r232103.
