Summary: Some constants can be handled with less instructions than our current results. And it seems our original approach is not very easy to extend. Therefore this patch proposes to materialize all 64-bit constants by enumerated patterns.
I traversed almost all constants to verified the functionality of these pattens. A traversed comparison of the number of instructions used by the original method and the new method has also been completed, where no degradation was caused by this patch. This patch also passed Bootstrap test and SPEC test.
Improvements of this patch are shown in llvm/test/CodeGen/PowerPC/constants-i64.ll

i1 is the native type for PowerPC if crbits is enabled. However, we need
to promote the i1 to i64 as we didn't have the pattern for i1.

As noted in the D44909 review, the transform from (fptosi+sitofp) to ftrunc
can produce -0.0 where the original code does not:
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc) {
float x;
x = -0.8 * argc;
printf("%f\n", (float)((int)x));
return 0;
}
$ clang -O0 -mavx fp.c ; ./a.out
0.000000
$ clang -O1 -mavx fp.c ; ./a.out
-0.000000
Ideally, we'd use IR/node flags to predicate the transform, but the IR parser
doesn't currently allow fast-math-flags on the cast instructions. So for now,
just use the function attribute that corresponds to clang's "-fno-signed-zeros"
option.

This was originally committed at rL328921 and reverted at rL329920 to
investigate failures in Chrome. This time I've added to the ReleaseNotes
to warn users of the potential of exposing UB and let me repeat that
here for more exposure:
Optimization of floating-point casts is improved. This may cause surprising
results for code that is relying on undefined behavior. Code sanitizers can
be used to detect affected patterns such as this:
int main() {
float x = 4294967296.0f;
x = (float)((int)x);
printf("junk in the ftrunc: %f\n", x);
return 0;
}
$ clang -O1 ftrunc.c -fsanitize=undefined ; ./a.out
ftrunc.c:5:15: runtime error: 4.29497e+09 is outside the range of
representable values of type 'int'
junk in the ftrunc: 0.000000
Original commit message:
fptosi / fptoui round towards zero, and that's the same behavior as ISD::FTRUNC,
so replace a pair of casts with the equivalent node. We don't have to account for
special cases (NaN, INF) because out-of-range casts are undefined.

This change is exposing UB in source code - as was warned/predicted. :)
See D44909 for discussion. Reverting while we figure out how to fix things.

Currently we have a number of tests that fail with -verify-machineinstrs.
To detect this cases earlier we add the option to the testcases with the
exception of tests that will currently fail with this option. PR 27456 keeps
track of this failures.
No code review, as discussed with Hal Finkel.

The old target DAG combine that allowed for performing int_to_fp(fp_to_int(x))
without a load/store pair is updated here with support for unsigned integers,
and to support single-precision values without a third rounding step, on newer
cores with the appropriate instructions.
