If the return values can't be lowered to registers
SelectionDAG performs the sret demotion. This patch
contains the basic implementation for the same in
the GlobalISel pipeline.
Furthermore, targets should bring relevant changes
during lowerFormalArguments, lowerReturn and
lowerCall to make use of this feature.

I've now needed to add an extra parameter to this call twice recently. Not only
is the signature getting extremely unwieldy, but just updating all of the
callsites and implementations is a pain. Putting the parameters in a struct
sidesteps both issues.

Summary:
This will make it possible to improve IPRA by taking into account
register usage in indirect calls.
NFC yet; this is just laying the groundwork to start building
up patches to take advantage of the information for improved register
allocation.

Migrate CallLowering::lowerReturnVal to use the same infrastructure as
lowerCall/FormalArguments and remove the now obsolete code path from
splitToValueTypes.
Forgot to push this earlier.
llvm-svn: 366308
Change the interface of CallLowering::lowerFormalArguments to accept
several virtual registers for each formal argument, instead of just one.
This is a follow-up to D46018.
CallLowering::lowerReturn was similarly refactored in D49660. lowerCall
will be refactored in the same way in follow-up patches.
With this change, we forward the virtual registers generated for
aggregates to CallLowering. Therefore, the target can decide itself
whether it wants to handle them as separate pieces or use one big
register. We also copy the pack/unpackRegs helpers to CallLowering to
facilitate this.
ARM and AArch64 have been updated to use the passed in virtual registers
directly, which means we no longer need to generate so many
merge/extract instructions.
AArch64 seems to have had a bug when lowering e.g. [1 x i8*], which was
put into a s64 instead of a p0. Added a test-case which illustrates the
problem more clearly (it crashes without this patch) and fixed the
existing test-case to expect p0.
AMDGPU has been updated to unpack into the virtual registers for
kernels. I think the other code paths fall back for aggregates, so this
should be NFC.
Mips doesn't support aggregates yet, so it's also NFC.
x86 seems to have code for dealing with aggregates, but I couldn't find
the tests for it, so I just added a fallback to DAGISel if we get more
than one virtual register for an argument.

Avoids using a plain unsigned for registers throughoug codegen.
Doesn't attempt to change every register use, just something a little
more than the set needed to build after changing the return type of
MachineOperand::getReg().

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

Clang coerces structs into arrays, so it's a good idea to support them.
Most of the support boils down to getting the splitToValueTypes helper
to actually split types. We then use G_INSERT/G_EXTRACT to deal with the
parts.

This commit adds a parameter that lets us pass in the calling convention
of the call to CallLowering::lowerCall. This allows us to handle
situations where the calling convetion of the callee is different from
that of the caller.

It is important to change the ArgInfo's type from pointer to integer, otherwise
the CC assign function won't know what to do. Instead of hacking it up, we use
ComputeValueVTs and introduce some of the helpers that we will need later on for
lowering more complex types.
llvm-svn: 293889
Add the minimal support necessary to select a function that returns the sum of
two i32 values.
This includes some support for argument/return lowering of i32 values through
registers, as well as the handling of copy and add instructions throughout the
GlobalISel pipeline.
