This patch adds support for the next-generation arch14
CPU architecture to the SystemZ backend.
This includes:
- Basic support for the new processor and its features.
- Detection of arch14 as host processor.
- Assembler/disassembler support for new instructions.
- New LLVM intrinsics for certain new instructions.
- Support for low-level builtins mapped to new LLVM intrinsics.
- New high-level intrinsics in vecintrin.h.
- Indicate support by defining __VEC__ == 10304.
Note: No currently available Z system supports the arch14
architecture. Once new systems become available, the
official system name will be added as supported -march name.
For a default visibility external linkage definition, dso_local is set for ELF
-fno-pic/-fpie and COFF and Mach-O. Since default clang -cc1 for ELF is similar
to -fpic ("PIC Level" is not set), this nuance causes unneeded binary format differences.
To make emitted IR similar, ELF -cc1 -fpic will default to -fno-semantic-interposition,
which sets dso_local for default visibility external linkage definitions.
To make this flip smooth and enable future (dso_local as definition default),
this patch replaces (function) `define ` with `define{{.*}} `,
(variable/constant/alias) `= ` with `={{.*}} `, or inserts appropriate `{{.*}} `.
This patch creates a SystemZ folder in clang/test/CodeGen to contain systemz-related lit tests.
