An identity COPY like this:
%AL = COPY %AL, %EAX<imp-def>
has no semantic effect, but encodes liveness information: Further users
of %EAX only depend on this instruction even though it does not define
the full register.
Replace the COPY with a KILL instruction in those cases to maintain this
liveness information. (This reverts a small part of r238588 but this
time adds a comment explaining why a KILL instruction is useful).

There is a problem in VSXSwapRemoval where it is incorrectly removing permute instructions.
In this case, the permute is feeding both a vector store and also a non-store instruction. In this case, the permute cannot be removed.
The fix is to simply look at all the uses of the vector register defined by the permute and ensure that all the uses are vector store instructions.
This problem was reported in PR 27735 (https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=27735).
Test case based on the original problem reported.

Summary:
findBetterNeighborChains may or may not find a better chain for each node it finds, which include the node ("St") that visitSTORE is currently processing. If no better chain is found for St, visitSTORE should continue instead of return SDValue(St, 0), as if it's CombinedTo'ed.
This fixes bug 28130. There might be other ways to make the test pass (see D21409). I think both of the patches are fixing actual bugs revealed by the same testcase.

This patch corresponds to review:
http://reviews.llvm.org/D20443
It changes the legalization strategy for illegal vector types from integer
promotion to widening. This only applies for vectors with elements of width
that is a multiple of a byte since we have hardware support for vectors with
1, 2, 3, 8 and 16 byte elements.
Integer promotion for vectors is quite expensive on PPC due to the sequence
of breaking apart the vector, extending the elements and reconstituting the
vector. Two of these operations are expensive.
This patch causes between minor and major improvements in performance on most
benchmarks. There are very few benchmarks whose performance regresses. These
regressions can be handled in a subsequent patch with a DAG combine (similar
to how this patch handles int -> fp conversions of illegal vector types).

In bidirectional scheduling this gives more stable results than just
comparing the "reason" fields of the top/bottom node because the reason
field may be higher depending on what other nodes are in the queue.

If a local_unnamed_addr attribute is attached to a global, the address
is known to be insignificant within the module. It is distinct from the
existing unnamed_addr attribute in that it only describes a local property
of the module rather than a global property of the symbol.
This attribute is intended to be used by the code generator and LTO to allow
the linker to decide whether the global needs to be in the symbol table. It is
possible to exclude a global from the symbol table if three things are true:
- This attribute is present on every instance of the global (which means that
the normal rule that the global must have a unique address can be broken without
being observable by the program by performing comparisons against the global's
address)
- The global has linkonce_odr linkage (which means that each linkage unit must have
its own copy of the global if it requires one, and the copy in each linkage unit
must be the same)
- It is a constant or a function (which means that the program cannot observe that
the unique-address rule has been broken by writing to the global)
Although this attribute could in principle be computed from the module
contents, LTO clients (i.e. linkers) will normally need to be able to compute
this property as part of symbol resolution, and it would be inefficient to
materialize every module just to compute it.

The exit-on-error flag in the ARM test is necessary in order to avoid an
unreachable in the DAGTypeLegalizer, when trying to expand a physical register.
We can also avoid this situation by introducing a bitcast early on, where the
invalid scalar-to-vector conversion is detected.
We also add a test for PowerPC, which goes through a similar code path in the
SelectionDAGBuilder.

Using an LLVM IR aggregate return value type containing three
or more integer values causes an abort in the fast isel pass.
This patch adds two more registers to RetCC_PPC64_ELF_FIS to
allow returning up to four integers with fast isel, just the
same as is currently supported with regular isel (RetCC_PPC).
This is needed for Swift and (possibly) other non-clang frontends.

When processing inline asm that contains errors, make sure we can recover
gracefully by creating an UNDEF SDValue for the inline asm statement before
returning from SelectionDAGBuilder::visitInlineAsm. This is necessary for
consumers that don't exit on the first error that is emitted (e.g. clang)
and that would assert later on.

Without a diagnostic handler installed, llc's behaviour is to exit on the first
error that it encounters. This is very different from the behaviour of clang
and other front ends, which try to gather as many errors as possible before
exiting.
This commit adds a diagnostic handler to llc, allowing it to find and report
more than one error. The old behaviour is preserved under a flag (-exit-on-error).
Some of the tests fail with the new diagnostic handler, so they have to use the
new flag in order to run under the previous behaviour. Some of these are known
bugs, others need further investigation. Ideally, we should fix the tests and
remove the flag at some point in the future.
Reapplied after fixing the LLDB build that was broken due to the new
DiagnosticSeverity in LLVMContext.h, and fixed an UB in the new change.

While promoting nodes in PPCTargetLowering::DAGCombineExtBoolTrunc, it is
possible for one of the nodes to be replaced by another. To make sure we do not
visit the deleted nodes, and to make sure we visit the replacement nodes, use a

process.
The same fix has been applied to the analogous code in

An oddity of the .ll syntax is that the "@var = " in
@var = global i32 42
is optional. Writing just
global i32 42
is equivalent to
@0 = global i32 42
This means that there is a pretty big First set at the top level. The
current implementation maintains it manually. I was trying to refactor
it, but then started wondering why keep it a all. I personally find the
above syntax confusing. It looks like something is missing.
This patch removes the feature and simplifies the parser.

This instruction is just a control flow marker - it should not
actually exist in the object file. Unfortunately, nothing catches
it before it gets to AsmPrinter. If integrated assembler is used,
it's considered to be a normal 4-byte instruction, and emitted as
an all-0 word, crashing the program. With external assembler,
a comment is emitted.
Fixed by setting Size to 0 and handling it in MCCodeEmitter - this
means the comment will still be emitted if integrated assembler
is not used.
This broke an ASan test, which has been disabled for a long time
as a result (see the discussion on D19657). We can reenable it
once this lands.

visitAND, when folding and (load) forgets to check which output of
an indexed load is involved, happily folding the updated address
output on the following testcase:
target datalayout = "e-m:e-i64:64-n32:64"
target triple = "powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu"
%typ = type { i32, i32 }
define signext i32 @_Z8access_pP1Tc(%typ* %p, i8 zeroext %type) {
%b = getelementptr inbounds %typ, %typ* %p, i64 0, i32 1
%1 = load i32, i32* %b, align 4
%2 = ptrtoint i32* %b to i64
%3 = and i64 %2, -35184372088833
%4 = inttoptr i64 %3 to i32*
%_msld = load i32, i32* %4, align 4
%zzz = add i32 %1, %_msld
ret i32 %zzz
}
Fix this by checking ResNo.
I've found a few more places that currently neglect to check for
indexed load, and tightened them up as well, but I don't have test
cases for them. In fact, they might not be triggerable at all,
at least with current targets. Still, better safe than sorry.

Currently each Function points to a DISubprogram and DISubprogram has a
scope field. For member functions the scope is a DICompositeType. DIScopes
point to the DICompileUnit to facilitate type uniquing.
Distinct DISubprograms (with isDefinition: true) are not part of the type
hierarchy and cannot be uniqued. This change removes the subprograms
list from DICompileUnit and instead adds a pointer to the owning compile
unit to distinct DISubprograms. This would make it easy for ThinLTO to
strip unneeded DISubprograms and their transitively referenced debug info.
Motivation
----------
Materializing DISubprograms is currently the most expensive operation when
doing a ThinLTO build of clang.
We want the DISubprogram to be stored in a separate Bitcode block (or the
same block as the function body) so we can avoid having to expensively
deserialize all DISubprograms together with the global metadata. If a
function has been inlined into another subprogram we need to store a
reference the block containing the inlined subprogram.

In the ELFv2 ABI, we are not required to save all CR fields. If only one

selectively save the field, because mfocrf has short latency compares to
