It had patterns for zext-loading and extending. This commit adds patterns for loading a wide type, performing a bitcast,
and extending. This is an odd pattern, but it is commonly used when writing code with intrinsics.

new one, and add support for running the new pass in that mode and in
that slot of the pass manager. With this the new pass can completely
replace the old one within the pipeline.
The strategy for enabling or disabling the SSAUpdater logic is to do it
by making the requirement of the domtree analysis optional. By default,
it is required and we get the standard mem2reg approach. This is usually
the desired strategy when run in stand-alone situations. Within the
CGSCC pass manager, we disable requiring of the domtree analysis and
consequentially trigger fallback to the SSAUpdater promotion.
In theory this would allow the pass to re-use a domtree if one happened
to be available even when run in a mode that doesn't require it. In
practice, it lets us have a single pass rather than two which was
simpler for me to wrap my head around.
There is a hidden flag to force the use of the SSAUpdater code path for
the purpose of testing. The primary testing strategy is just to run the
existing tests through that path. One notable difference is that it has
custom code to handle lifetime markers, and one of the tests has been
enhanced to exercise that code.
This has survived a bootstrap and the test suite without serious
correctness issues, however my run of the test suite produced *very*
alarming performance numbers. I don't entirely understand or trust them
though, so more investigation is on-going.
To aid my understanding of the performance impact of the new SROA now
that it runs throughout the optimization pipeline, I'm enabling it by
default in this commit, and will disable it again once the LNT bots have
picked up one iteration with it. I want to get those bots (which are
much more stable) to evaluate the impact of the change before I jump to
any conclusions.
NOTE: Several Clang tests will fail because they run -O3 and check the
result's order of output. They'll go back to passing once I disable it
again.

Updated previous implementation to fix a case not covered:
// PBI: br i1 %x, TrueDest, BB
// BI: br i1 %y, TrueDest, FalseDest
The other case was handled correctly.
// PBI: br i1 %x, BB, FalseDest
// BI: br i1 %y, TrueDest, FalseDest
Also tried to use 64-bit arithmetic instead of APInt with scale to simplify the
computation. Let me know if you have other opinions about this.

This is essentially a ground up re-think of the SROA pass in LLVM. It
was initially inspired by a few problems with the existing pass:
- It is subject to the bane of my existence in optimizations: arbitrary
thresholds.
- It is overly conservative about which constructs can be split and
promoted.
- The vector value replacement aspect is separated from the splitting
logic, missing many opportunities where splitting and vector value
formation can work together.
- The splitting is entirely based around the underlying type of the
alloca, despite this type often having little to do with the reality
of how that memory is used. This is especially prevelant with unions
and base classes where we tail-pack derived members.
- When splitting fails (often due to the thresholds), the vector value
replacement (again because it is separate) can kick in for
preposterous cases where we simply should have split the value. This
results in forming i1024 and i2048 integer "bit vectors" that
tremendously slow down subsequnet IR optimizations (due to large
APInts) and impede the backend's lowering.
The new design takes an approach that fundamentally is not susceptible
to many of these problems. It is the result of a discusison between
myself and Duncan Sands over IRC about how to premptively avoid these
types of problems and how to do SROA in a more principled way. Since
then, it has evolved and grown, but this remains an important aspect: it
fixes real world problems with the SROA process today.
First, the transform of SROA actually has little to do with replacement.
It has more to do with splitting. The goal is to take an aggregate
alloca and form a composition of scalar allocas which can replace it and
will be most suitable to the eventual replacement by scalar SSA values.
The actual replacement is performed by mem2reg (and in the future
SSAUpdater).
The splitting is divided into four phases. The first phase is an
analysis of the uses of the alloca. This phase recursively walks uses,
building up a dense datastructure representing the ranges of the
alloca's memory actually used and checking for uses which inhibit any
aspects of the transform such as the escape of a pointer.
Once we have a mapping of the ranges of the alloca used by individual
operations, we compute a partitioning of the used ranges. Some uses are
inherently splittable (such as memcpy and memset), while scalar uses are
not splittable. The goal is to build a partitioning that has the minimum
number of splits while placing each unsplittable use in its own
partition. Overlapping unsplittable uses belong to the same partition.
This is the target split of the aggregate alloca, and it maximizes the
number of scalar accesses which become accesses to their own alloca and
candidates for promotion.
Third, we re-walk the uses of the alloca and assign each specific memory
access to all the partitions touched so that we have dense use-lists for
each partition.
Finally, we build a new, smaller alloca for each partition and rewrite
each use of that partition to use the new alloca. During this phase the
pass will also work very hard to transform uses of an alloca into a form
suitable for promotion, including forming vector operations, speculating
loads throguh PHI nodes and selects, etc.
After splitting is complete, each newly refined alloca that is
a candidate for promotion to a scalar SSA value is run through mem2reg.
There are lots of reasonably detailed comments in the source code about
the design and algorithms, and I'm going to be trying to improve them in
subsequent commits to ensure this is well documented, as the new pass is
in many ways more complex than the old one.
Some of this is still a WIP, but the current state is reasonbly stable.
It has passed bootstrap, the nightly test suite, and Duncan has run it
successfully through the ACATS and DragonEgg test suites. That said, it
remains behind a default-off flag until the last few pieces are in
place, and full testing can be done.
Specific areas I'm looking at next:
- Improved comments and some code cleanup from reviews.
- SSAUpdater and enabling this pass inside the CGSCC pass manager.
- Some datastructure tuning and compile-time measurements.
- More aggressive FCA splitting and vector formation.
Many thanks to Duncan Sands for the thorough final review, as well as
Benjamin Kramer for lots of review during the process of writing this
pass, and Daniel Berlin for reviewing the data structures and algorithms
and general theory of the pass. Also, several other people on IRC, over
lunch tables, etc for lots of feedback and advice.

are within the lifetime zone. Sometime legitimate usages of allocas are
hoisted outside of the lifetime zone. For example, GEPS may calculate the
address of a member of an allocated struct. This commit makes sure that
we only check (abort regions or assert) for instructions that read and write
memory using stack frames directly. Notice that by allowing legitimate
usages outside the lifetime zone we also stop checking for instructions
which use derivatives of allocas. We will catch less bugs in user code
and in the compiler itself.

We don't have enough GR64_TC registers when calling a varargs function
with 6 arguments. Since %al holds the number of vector registers used,
only %r11 is available as a scratch register.
This means that addressing modes using both base and index registers
can't be folded into TCRETURNmi64.

nonvolatile condition register fields across calls under the SVR4 ABIs.
* With the 64-bit ABI, the save location is at a fixed offset of 8 from
the stack pointer. The frame pointer cannot be used to access this
portion of the stack frame since the distance from the frame pointer may
change with alloca calls.
* With the 32-bit ABI, the save location is just below the general
register save area, and is accessed via the frame pointer like the rest
of the save areas. This is an optional slot, so it must only be created
if any of CR2, CR3, and CR4 were modified.
* For both ABIs, save/restore logic is generated only if one of the
nonvolatile CR fields were modified.
I also took this opportunity to clean up an extra FIXME in
PPCFrameLowering.h. Save area offsets for 32-bit GPRs are meaningless
for the 64-bit ABI, so I removed them for correctness and efficiency.
Fixes PR13708 and partially also PR13623. It lets us enable exception handling
on PPC64.

SelectionDAG::getConstantFP(double Val, EVT VT, bool isTarget);

guaranteed that Val will be a simple constant.

The input program may contain intructions which are not inside lifetime
markers. This can happen due to a bug in the compiler or due to a bug in
user code (for example, returning a reference to a local variable).
This commit adds checks that all of the instructions in the function and
invalidates lifetime ranges which do not contain all of the instructions.

Don't do that if the sub is predicated - the flags are not written
