Currently, if the assembler encounters an error after parsing (such as an
out-of-range fixup), it reports this as a fatal error, and so stops after the
first error. However, for most of these there is an obvious way to recover
after emitting the error, such as emitting the fixup with a value of zero. This
means that we can report on all of the errors in a file, not just the first
one. MCContext::reportError records the fact that an error was encountered, so
we won't actually emit an object file with the incorrect contents.

The way prelink used to work was
* The compiler decides if a given section only has relocations that
are know to point to the same DSO. If so, it names it
.data.rel.ro.local<something>.
* The static linker puts all of these together.
* The prelinker program assigns addresses to each library and resolves
the local relocations.
There are many problems with this:
* It is incompatible with address space randomization.
* The information passed by the compiler is redundant. The linker
knows if a given relocation is in the same DSO or not. If could sort
by that if so desired.
* There are newer ways of speeding up DSO (gnu hash for example).
* Even if we want to implement this again in the compiler, the previous
implementation is pretty broken. It talks about relocations that are
"resolved by the static linker". If they are resolved, there are none
left for the prelinker. What one needs to track is if an expression
will require only dynamic relocations that point to the same DSO.
At this point it looks like the prelinker is an historical curiosity.
For example, fedora has retired it because it failed to build for two
releases
(http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/prelink.git/commit/?id=eb43100a8331d91c801ee3dcdb0a0bb9babfdc1f)
This patch removes support for it. That is, it stops printing the
".local" sections.

MCRelaxableFragment previously kept a copy of MCSubtargetInfo and
MCInst to enable re-encoding the MCInst later during relaxation. A copy
of MCSubtargetInfo (instead of a reference or pointer) was needed
because the feature bits could be modified by the parser.
This commit replaces the MCSubtargetInfo copy in MCRelaxableFragment
with a constant reference to MCSubtargetInfo. The copies of
MCSubtargetInfo are kept in MCContext, and the target parsers are now
responsible for asking MCContext to provide a copy whenever the feature
bits of MCSubtargetInfo have to be toggled.
With this patch, I saw a 4% reduction in peak memory usage when I
compiled verify-uselistorder.lto.bc using llc.

This patch adds a pass for doing PowerPC peephole optimizations at the
MI level while the code is still in SSA form. This allows for easy
modifications to the instructions while depending on a subsequent pass
of DCE. Both passes are very fast due to the characteristics of SSA.
At this time, the only peepholes added are for cleaning up various
redundancies involving the XXPERMDI instruction. However, I would
expect this will be a useful place to add more peepholes for
inefficiencies generated during instruction selection. The pass is
placed after VSX swap optimization, as it is best to let that pass
remove unnecessary swaps before performing any remaining clean-ups.
The utility of these clean-ups are demonstrated by changes to four
existing test cases, all of which now have tighter expected code
generation. I've also added Eric Schweiz's bugpoint-reduced test from
PR25157, for which we now generate tight code. One other test started
failing for me, and I've fixed it
(test/Transforms/PlaceSafepoints/finite-loops.ll) as well; this is not
related to my changes, and I'm not sure why it works before and not
after. The problem is that the CHECK-NOT: of "statepoint" from test1
fails because of the "statepoint" in test2, and so forth. Adding a
CHECK-LABEL in between keeps the different occurrences of that string
properly scoped.

Under most circumstances, if SCEV can simplify X-Y to a constant, then it can
also simplify Y-X to a constant. However, there is no guarantee that this is
always true, and concensus is not to consider that a correctness bug in SCEV
(although it is undesirable).
PPCLoopPreIncPrep gathers pointers used to access memory (via loads, stores and
prefetches) into buckets, where in each bucket the relative pointer offsets are
constant. We used to keep each bucket as a multimap, where SCEV's subtraction
operation was used to define the ordering predicate. Instead, use a fixed SCEV
base expression for each bucket, record the constant offsets from that base
expression, and adjust it later, if desirable, once all pointers have been
collected.
Doing it this way should be more compile-time efficient than the previous
scheme (in addition to making the implementation less sensitive to SCEV
simplification quirks).
Fixes PR25170.

Summary:
The CLR's personality routine passes these in rdx/edx, not rax/eax.
Make getExceptionPointerRegister a virtual method parameterized by
personality function to allow making this distinction.
Similarly make getExceptionSelectorRegister a virtual method parameterized
by personality function, for symmetry.

Summary:
In this implementation, LiveIntervalAnalysis invents a few register
masks on basic block boundaries that preserve no registers. The nice
thing about this is that it prevents the prologue inserter from thinking
it needs to spill all XMM CSRs, because it doesn't see any explicit
physreg defs in the MI.

This revision has introduced an issue that only affects bootstrapped compiler
when it is printing the ASM. It turns out that the new code path taken due to
legalizing a scalar_to_vector of i64 -> v2i64 exposes a missing check in a
micro optimization to change a load followed by a scalar_to_vector into a
load and splat instruction on PPC.

We cannot form ctr-based loops around function calls, including calls to
__tls_get_addr used for PIC TLS variables. References to such TLS variables,
however, might be buried within constant expressions, and so we need to search
the entire constant expression to be sure that no references to such TLS
variables exist.
Fixes PR25256, reported by Eric Schweitz. This is a slightly-modified version
of the patch suggested by Eric in the bug report, and a test case I created.

As a follow-up to r251566, do the same for the other optionally-supported
register classes (mostly for vector registers). Don't return an unavailable
register class (which would cause an assert later), but fail cleanly when
provided an unsupported inline asm constraint.

cntlz is the old POWER mnemonic. cntlzw is the PowerPC mnemonic.
This change fixes an issue when -no-integrated-as: The opcode cntlz is
unrecognized by gas
Alias the POWER mnemonic cntlz[.] to the PowerPC mnemonic cntlzw[.]
This is done for because the POWER cntlz mnemonic has be used by LLVM for
a very long time. We need to make sure that assembly programs
that are using the cntlz[.] do not break with this change.
Change PowerPC tests to reflect the insn change from cntlz to cntlzw.
Add assembly test to verify cntlz[.] is encoded correctly.

PR24686 identifies a problem where a relocation expression is invalid
when not all of the symbols in the expression can be locally
resolved. This causes the compiler to request a PC-relative half16ds
relocation, which is nonsensical for PowerPC. This patch recognizes
this situation and ensures we fail the assembly cleanly.
Test case provided by Anton Blanchard.

PR25157 identifies a bug where a load plus a vector shuffle is
incorrectly converted into an LXVDSX instruction. That optimization
is only valid if the load is of a doubleword, and in the noted case,
it was not. This corrects that problem.
Joint patch with Eric Schweitz, who provided the bugpoint-reduced test
case.

This patch corresponds to review:
http://reviews.llvm.org/D12032
This patch builds onto the patch that provided scalar to vector conversions
without stack operations (D11471).
Included in this patch:
- Vector element extraction for all vector types with constant element number
- Vector element extraction for v16i8 and v8i16 with variable element number
- Removal of some unnecessary COPY_TO_REGCLASS operations that ended up
unnecessarily moving things around between registers
Not included in this patch (will be in upcoming patch):
- Vector element extraction for v4i32, v4f32, v2i64 and v2f64 with
variable element number
- Vector element insertion for variable/constant element number
Testing is provided for all extractions. The extractions that are not
implemented yet are just placeholders.

Stop using `getNextNode()` to create an insertion point for machine
instructions (at least, in this one place). Instead, use an iterator.
As a drive-by, clean up dump statements to use iterator logic.
The `getNextNode()` interface isn't actually supposed to work for
insertion points; it's supposed to return `nullptr` if this is the last
node. It's currently broken and will "happen" to work, but if we ever
fix the function, we'll get some strange failures.

This extends the work done in r233995 so that now getFragment (in addition to
getSection) also works for variable symbols.
With that the existing logic to decide if a-b can be computed works even if
a or b are variables. Given that, the expression evaluation can avoid expanding
variables as aggressively and that in turn lets the relocation code see the
original variable.
In order for this to work with the asm streamer, there is now a dummy fragment
per section. It is used to assign a section to a symbol when no other fragment
exists.
This patch is a joint work by Maxim Ostapenko andy myself.

After D10403, we had FMF in the DAG but disabled by default. Nick reported no crashing errors after some stress testing,
so I enabled them at r243687. However, Escha soon notified us of a bug not covered by any in-tree regression tests:
if we don't propagate the flags, we may fail to CSE DAG nodes because differing FMF causes them to not match. There is
one test case in this patch to prove that point.
This patch hopes to fix or leave a 'TODO' for all of the in-tree places where we create nodes that are FMF-capable. I
did this by putting an assert in SelectionDAG.getNode() to find any FMF-capable node that was being created without FMF
( D11807 ). I then ran all regression tests and test-suite and confirmed that everything passes.
This patch exposes remaining work to get DAG FMF to be fully functional: (1) add the flags to non-binary nodes such as
FCMP, FMA and FNEG; (2) add the flags to intrinsics; (3) use the flags as conditions for transforms rather than the
current global settings.

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. Thanks go to Pavel Labath for fixing LLDB for me.
