LLVM and binutils.
With this patch, there are no functional differences between the .o
produced directly from LLVM versus the .s to .o via GNU as, for relocation tags
at least, for both PIC and non-PIC modes.
Because some non-PIC reloc tags are used (legally) on PIC, so IsPCRel flag is
necessary but not sufficient to determine whether the overall codegen mode is
PIC or not. Why is this necessary? There is an incompatibility of how relocs
are emitted in the .rodata section. Binutils PIC likes to emit certain relocs
as section relative offsets. Non-PIC does not do this.
So I added a hidden switch on the ELFObjectwriter "-arm-elf-force-pic" which
forces the objectwriter to pretend that all relocs are for PIC mode.
Todo: Activate ForceARMElfPIC to true if -relocation-model=pic is selected
on llc.
Todo: There are probably more issues for PIC mode on ARM/MC/ELF...
Todo: Existing tests in MC/ARM/elf-reloc*.ll need to be converted over to .s
tests as well as expanded to cover the gamut.

about to be spilled.
This can only happen when two extra snippet registers are included in the spill,
and there is a copy between them. Hoisting the spill creates problems because
the hoist will mark the copy for later dead code elimination, and spilling the
second register will turn the copy into a spill.

This change allows bugpoint to pinpoint the "opt" pass and bitcode
segment responsible for a crash caused by miscompilation. At least it
works well for me now, without having to create any custom execution
wrappers.

If there is a store after the load node, then there is a chain, which means
that there is another user. Thus, asking hasOneUser would fail. Instead we
ask hasNUsesOfValue on the 'data' value.

intrinsic call. This prevents it from being reordered so that it appears
*before* the setjmp intrinsic (thus making it completely useless).

at the start of basic blocks to their common predecessor. It's actually quite
common (e.g. about 50 times in JM/lencod) and has shown to be a nice code size
benefit. e.g.
pushq %rax
testl %edi, %edi
jne LBB0_2
## BB#1:
xorb %al, %al
popq %rdx
ret
LBB0_2:
xorb %al, %al
callq _foo
popq %rdx
ret
=>
pushq %rax
xorb %al, %al
testl %edi, %edi
je LBB0_2
## BB#1:
callq _foo
LBB0_2:
popq %rdx
ret

Still to do:
- Allow replacing / removing passes (infrastructure there, just needs an infrastructure exposed)
- Defining sets of passes to be added or removed as a group
- Extending the support to allow user-defined groups of optimisations
- Allow plugins to be specified for loading automatically (e.g. from plugins.conf or some similar mechanism)

this clang will use .debug_frame in, for example,
clang -g -c -m32 test.c
This matches gcc's behaviour. It looks like .debug_frame is a bit bigger
than .eh_frame, but has the big advantage of not being allocated.

It can happen that a live debug variable is the last use of a sub-register, and
the register allocator will pick a larger register class for the virtual
register. If the allocated register doesn't support the sub-register index,
just use %noreg for the debug variables instead of asserting.
In PR9872, a debug variable ends up in the sub_8bit_hi part of a GR32_ABCD
register. The register is split and one part is inflated to GR32 and assigned
%ESI because there are no more normal uses of sub_8bit_hi.
Since %ESI doesn't have that sub-register, substPhysReg asserted. Now it will
simply insert a %noreg instead, and the debug variable will be marked
unavailable in that range.
We don't currently have a way of saying: !"value" is in bits 8-15 of %ESI, I
don't know if DWARF even supports that.
