This adds a scheduling model for the POWER7 (P7) core, and enables the
machine-instruction scheduler when targeting the P7. Scheduling for the P7,
like earlier ooo PPC cores, requires considering both dispatch group hazards,
and functional unit resources and latencies. These are both modeled in a
combined itinerary. Dispatch group formation is still handled by the post-RA
scheduler (which still needs to be updated for the P7, but nevertheless does a
pretty good job).
One interesting aspect of this change is that I've also enabled to use of AA
duing CodeGen for the P7 (just as it is for the embedded cores). The benchmark
results seem to support this decision (see below), and while this is normally
useful for in-order cores, and not for ooo cores like the P7, I think that the
dispatch slot hazards are enough like in-order resources to make the AA useful.
Test suite significant performance differences (where negative is a speedup,
and positive is a regression) vs. the current situation:

These are 99.5% confidence intervals from 5 runs per configuration. Regarding
the choice to turn on AA during CodeGen, of these results, four seem
significantly in favor of using AA, and one seems significantly against. I'm
not making this decision based on these numbers alone, but these results
seem consistent with results I have from other tests, and so I think that, on
balance, using AA is a win.

Aggressive anti-dependency breaking is enabled by default for all PPC cores.
This provides a general speedup on the P7 and other platforms (among other
factors, the instruction group formation for the non-embedded PPC cores is done
during post-RA scheduling). In order to do this safely, the incompatibility
between uses of the MFOCRF instruction and anti-dependency breaking are
resolved by marking MFOCRF with hasExtraSrcRegAllocReq. As noted in the removed
FIXME, the problem was that MFOCRF's output is sensitive to the identify of the
source register, and always paired with a shift to undo this effect. Because
anti-dependency breaking is unaware of this hidden dependency of the shift
amount on the source register of the MFOCRF instruction, changing that register
must be inhibited.
Two test cases were adjusted: The SjLj test was made more insensitive to
register choices and scheduling; the saveCR test disabled anti-dependency
breaking because part of what it is testing is proper register reuse.

Modern PPC cores support a floating-point copysign instruction, and we can use
this to lower the FCOPYSIGN node (which is created from calls to the libm
copysign function). A couple of extra patterns are necessary because the
operand types of FCOPYSIGN need not agree.

This patch provides basic support for powerpc64le as an LLVM target.
However, use of this target will not actually generate little-endian
code. Instead, use of the target will cause the correct little-endian
built-in defines to be generated, so that code that tests for
__LITTLE_ENDIAN__, for example, will be correctly parsed for
syntax-only testing. Code generation will otherwise be the same as
powerpc64 (big-endian), for now.
The patch leaves open the possibility of creating a little-endian
PowerPC64 back end, but there is no immediate intent to create such a
thing.
The LLVM portions of this patch simply add ppc64le coverage everywhere
that ppc64 coverage currently exists. There is nothing of any import
worth testing until such time as little-endian code generation is
implemented. In the corresponding Clang patch, there is a new test
case variant to ensure that correct built-in defines for little-endian
code are generated.

This change mirrors the changes that were made to the X86 and ARM targets to
support subtarget feature changing. As indicated in r182899, the mechanism is
still undergoing revision, and so as with the X86 and ARM targets, there is no
test case yet (there is no effective functionality change).

When unsafe FP math operations are enabled, we can use the fre[s] and
frsqrte[s] instructions, which generate reciprocal (sqrt) estimates, together
with some Newton iteration, in order to quickly generate floating-point
division and sqrt results. All of these instructions are separately optional,
and so each has its own feature flag (except for the Altivec instructions,
which are covered under the existing Altivec flag). Doing this is not only
faster than using the IEEE-compliant fdiv/fsqrt instructions, but allows these
computations to be pipelined with other computations in order to hide their
overall latency.
I've also added a couple of missing fnmsub patterns which turned out to be
missing (but are necessary for good code generation of the Newton iterations).
Altivec needs a similar fix, but that will probably be more complicated because
fneg is expanded for Altivec's v4f32.

The P7 and A2 have additional floating-point conversion instructions which

These instructions are available on the P5x (and later) and on the A2. They
implement the standard floating-point rounding operations (floor, trunc, etc.).
One caveat: frin (round to nearest) does not implement "ties to even", and so
is only enabled in fast-math mode.

These are 64-bit load/store with byte-swap, and available on the P7 and the A2.

into their new header subdirectory: include/llvm/IR. This matches the
directory structure of lib, and begins to correct a long standing point
of file layout clutter in LLVM.
There are still more header files to move here, but I wanted to handle
them in separate commits to make tracking what files make sense at each
layer easier.
The only really questionable files here are the target intrinsic
tablegen files. But that's a battle I'd rather not fight today.
I've updated both CMake and Makefile build systems (I think, and my
tests think, but I may have missed something).
I've also re-sorted the includes throughout the project. I'll be
committing updates to Clang, DragonEgg, and Polly momentarily.

Sooooo many of these had incorrect or strange main module includes.
I have manually inspected all of these, and fixed the main module
include to be the nearest plausible thing I could find. If you own or
care about any of these source files, I encourage you to take some time
and check that these edits were sensible. I can't have broken anything
(I strictly added headers, and reordered them, never removed), but they
may not be the headers you'd really like to identify as containing the
API being implemented.
Many forward declarations and missing includes were added to a header
files to allow them to parse cleanly when included first. The main
module rule does in fact have its merits. =]

This patch adds initial PPC64 TOC MC object creation using the small mcmodel
(a single 64K TOC) adding the some TOC relocations (R_PPC64_TOC,
R_PPC64_TOC16, and R_PPC64_TOC16DS).
The addition of 'undefinedExplicitRelSym' hook on 'MCELFObjectTargetWriter'
is meant to avoid the creation of an unreferenced ".TOC." symbol (used in
the .odp creation) as well to set the R_PPC64_TOC relocation target as the
temporary ".TOC." symbol. On PPC64 ABI, the R_PPC64_TOC relocation should
not point to any symbol.

Using 'all' instead of 'critical' would be better because it would make it easier to
satisfy the bundling constraints, but, as noted in the FIXME, that is currently not

Post-RA scheduling gives a significant performance improvement on
the embedded cores, so turn it on. Using full anti-dep. breaking is
important for FP-intensive blocks, so turn it on (just on the

post-ra scheduling is all that we have for now, but that should have
more testing first).

- Added methods to update subtarget features (used when targets automatically
detect subtarget features or switch modes).
- Teach X86Subtarget to update MCSubtargetInfo features bits since the

us pass PowerPC/indirectbr.ll.
The one annoying thing about this patch is that the MCSymbolExpr isn't

Modules and ModuleProviders. Because the "ModuleProvider" simply materializes
GlobalValues now, and doesn't provide modules, it's renamed to
"GVMaterializer". Code that used to need a ModuleProvider to materialize
Functions can now materialize the Functions directly. Functions no longer use a
magic linkage to record that they're materializable; they simply ask the
GVMaterializer.
Because the C ABI must never change, we can't remove LLVMModuleProviderRef or
the functions that refer to it. Instead, because Module now exposes the same
functionality ModuleProvider used to, we store a Module* in any
LLVMModuleProviderRef and translate in the wrapper methods. The bindings to
other languages still use the ModuleProvider concept. It would probably be
worth some time to update them to follow the C++ more closely, but I don't
intend to do it.
