The meaning of getTypeSize was not clear - clarifying it is important
now that we have x86 long double and arbitrary precision integers.
The issue with long double is that it requires 80 bits, and this is
not a multiple of its alignment. This gives a primitive type for
which getTypeSize differed from getABITypeSize. For arbitrary precision
integers it is even worse: there is the minimum number of bits needed to
hold the type (eg: 36 for an i36), the maximum number of bits that will
be overwriten when storing the type (40 bits for i36) and the ABI size
(i.e. the storage size rounded up to a multiple of the alignment; 64 bits
for i36).
This patch removes getTypeSize (not really - it is still there but
deprecated to allow for a gradual transition). Instead there is:
(1) getTypeSizeInBits - a number of bits that suffices to hold all
values of the type. For a primitive type, this is the minimum number
of bits. For an i36 this is 36 bits. For x86 long double it is 80.
This corresponds to gcc's TYPE_PRECISION.
(2) getTypeStoreSizeInBits - the maximum number of bits that is
written when storing the type (or read when reading it). For an
i36 this is 40 bits, for an x86 long double it is 80 bits. This
is the size alias analysis is interested in (getTypeStoreSize
returns the number of bytes). There doesn't seem to be anything
corresponding to this in gcc.
(3) getABITypeSizeInBits - this is getTypeStoreSizeInBits rounded
up to a multiple of the alignment. For an i36 this is 64, for an
x86 long double this is 96 or 128 depending on the OS. This is the
spacing between consecutive elements when you form an array out of
this type (getABITypeSize returns the number of bytes). This is
TYPE_SIZE in gcc.
Since successive elements in a SequentialType (arrays, pointers
and vectors) need to be aligned, the spacing between them will be
given by getABITypeSize. This means that the size of an array
is the length times the getABITypeSize. It also means that GEP
computations need to use getABITypeSize when computing offsets.
Furthermore, if an alloca allocates several elements at once then
these too need to be aligned, so the size of the alloca has to be
the number of elements multiplied by getABITypeSize. Logically
speaking this doesn't have to be the case when allocating just
one element, but it is simpler to also use getABITypeSize in this
case. So alloca's and mallocs should use getABITypeSize. Finally,
since gcc's only notion of size is that given by getABITypeSize, if
you want to output assembler etc the same as gcc then getABITypeSize
is the size you want.
Since a store will overwrite no more than getTypeStoreSize bytes,
and a read will read no more than that many bytes, this is the
notion of size appropriate for alias analysis calculations.
In this patch I have corrected all type size uses except some of
those in ScalarReplAggregates, lib/Codegen, lib/Target (the hard
cases). I will get around to auditing these too at some point,
but I could do with some help.
Finally, I made one change which I think wise but others might
consider pointless and suboptimal: in an unpacked struct the
amount of space allocated for a field is now given by the ABI
size rather than getTypeStoreSize. I did this because every
other place that reserves memory for a type (eg: alloca) now
uses getABITypeSize, and I didn't want to make an exception
for unpacked structs, i.e. I did it to make things more uniform.
This only effects structs containing long doubles and arbitrary
precision integers. If someone wants to pack these types more
tightly they can always use a packed struct.

storing an i170 on a 32 bit machine. This is first
promoted to a trunc-i170 store of an i256. On a
little-endian machine this expands to a store of
an i128 and a trunc-i42 store of an i128. The
trunc-i42 store is further expanded to a trunc-i42
store of an i64, then to a store of an i32 and a
trunc-i10 store of an i32. At this point the operand
type is legal (i32) and expansion stops (legalization
of the trunc-i10 needs to be handled in LegalizeDAG.cpp).
On big-endian machines the high bits are stored first,
and some bit-fiddling is needed in order to generate
aligned stores.

is one. Now the restriction is loosened up by allowing setcc uses to be
"extended" (e.g. setcc x, c, eq -> setcc sext(x), sext(c), eq).

of offset and the alignment of ptr if these are both powers of
2. While the ptr alignment is guaranteed to be a power of 2,
there is no reason to think that offset is. For example, if
offset is 12 (the size of a long double on x86-32 linux) and
the alignment of ptr is 8, then the alignment of ptr+offset
will in general be 4, not 8. Introduce a function MinAlign,
lifted from gcc, for computing the minimum guaranteed alignment.
I've tried to fix up everywhere under lib/CodeGen/SelectionDAG/.
I also changed some places that weren't wrong (because both values
were a power of 2), as a defensive change against people copying
and pasting the code.
Hopefully someone who cares about alignment will review the rest
of LLVM and fix up the remaining places. Since I'm on x86 I'm
not very motivated to do this myself...

into a target-independent lowering method with hooks to the backend. In the
meantime, just call memcpy if we're trying to copy onto a stack.

operations so they work right for integers with funky
bit-widths. For example, consider extending i48 to i64
on a 32 bit machine. The i64 result is expanded to 2 x i32.
We know that the i48 operand will be promoted to i64, then
also expanded to 2 x i32. If we had the expanded promoted
operand to hand, then expanding the result would be trivial.
Unfortunately at this stage we can only get hold of the
promoted operand. So instead we kind of hand-expand, doing
explicit shifting and truncating to get the top and bottom
halves of the i64 operand into 2 x i32, which are then used
to expand the result. This is harmless, because when the
promoted operand is finally expanded all this bit fiddling
turns into trivial operations which are eliminated either
by the expansion code itself or the DAG combiner.

asserts in later checks rather than producing
the ordinary load it is supposed to. Avoid all
such hassles by directly returning an ordinary

To do this it is necessary to add a "always inline" argument to the
memcpy node. For completeness I have also added this node to memmove
and memset. I have also added getMem* functions, because the extra
argument makes it cumbersome to use getNode and because I get confused
by it :-)

types. This is needed for SIGN_EXTEND_INREG at least.
It is not clear if this is correct for other operations.
On the other hand, for the various load/store actions
it seems to correct to return the type action, as is
currently done.
Also, it seems that SelectionDAG::getValueType can be
called for extended value types; introduce a map for
holding these, since we don't really want to extend
the vector to be 2^32 pointers long!
Generalize DAGTypeLegalizer::PromoteResult_TRUNCATE
and DAGTypeLegalizer::PromoteResult_INT_EXTEND to handle
the various funky possibilities that apints introduce,
for example that you can promote to a type that needs
to be expanded.
