register classes.
It provides information for each register class that cannot be
determined statically, like:
- The number of allocatable registers in a class after filtering out the
reserved and invalid registers.
- The preferred allocation order with registers that overlap callee-saved
registers last.
- The last callee-saved register that overlaps a given physical register.
This information usually doesn't change between functions, so it is
reused for compiling multiple functions when possible. The many
possible combinations of reserved and callee saves registers makes it
unfeasible to compute this information statically in TableGen.
Use RegisterClassInfo to count available registers in various heuristics
in SimpleRegisterCoalescing, making the pass run 4% faster.

LiveInterval::shrinkToUses recomputes the live range from scratch instead of
removing snippets. This should avoid the problem with dangling live ranges.
Leave physreg identity copies alone. They can be created when joining a virtreg
with a physreg. They don't affect register allocation, and they will be removed
by the rewriter.

The greedy register allocator has live range splitting and register class
inflation, so it can actually fully undo this join, including restoring the
original register classes.
We still don't want to do this for long live ranges, mostly because of the high
register pressure of there are many constrained live ranges overlapping.

Joining physregs is inherently dangerous because it uses a heuristic to avoid
creating invalid code. Linear scan had an emergency spilling mechanism to deal
with those rare cases. The new greedy allocator does not.
The greedy register allocator is much better at taking hints, so this has almost
no impact on code size and quality. The few cases where it matters show up as
unit tests that now have -join-physregs enabled explicitly.

Both coalescing and register allocation already check aliases for interference,
so these extra segments are only slowing us down.
This speeds up both linear scan and the greedy register allocator.

When a virtual register has a single value that is defined as a copy of a
reserved register, permit that copy to be joined. These virtual register are
usually copies of the stack pointer:
%vreg75<def> = COPY %ESP; GR32:%vreg75
MOV32mr %vreg75, 1, %noreg, 0, %noreg, %vreg74<kill>
MOV32mi %vreg75, 1, %noreg, 8, %noreg, 0
MOV32mi %vreg75<kill>, 1, %noreg, 4, %noreg, 0
CALLpcrel32 ...
Coalescing these virtual registers early decreases register pressure.
Previously, they were coalesced by RALinScan::attemptTrivialCoalescing after
register allocation was completed.
The lower register pressure causes the mcinst-lowering-cmp0.ll test case to fail
because it depends on linear scan spilling a particular register.
I am deleting 2008-08-05-SpillerBug.ll because it is counting the number of
instructions emitted, and its revision history shows the 'correct' count being
edited many times.

This way, shrinkToUses() will ignore the instruction that is about to be
deleted, and we avoid leaving invalid live ranges that SplitKit doesn't like.
Fix a misunderstanding in MachineVerifier about <def,undef> operands. The
<undef> flag is valid on def operands where it has the same meaning as <undef>
on a use operand. It only applies to sub-register defines which also read the
full register.

The damage done by physreg coalescing only depends on the number of instructions
the extended physreg live range covers. This fixes PR9438.
The heuristic is still luck-based, and physreg coalescing really should be
disabled completely. We need a register allocator with better hinting support
before that is possible.
Convert a test to FileCheck and force spilling by inserting an extra call. The
previous spilling behavior was dependent on misguided physreg coalescing
decisions.

After uses of a live range are removed, recompute the live range to only cover
the remaining uses. This is necessary after rematerializing the value before
some (but not all) uses.

alternative register allocator that does not require LiveIntervals by specifying
it on the command-line for a target that has StrongPHIElimination enabled by
default.
These checks are pretty meaningless anyways, since StrongPHIElimination and
PHIElimination are never used at the same time.

Scan the MachineFunction for DBG_VALUE instructions, and replace them with a
data structure similar to LiveIntervals. The live range of a DBG_VALUE is
determined by propagating it down the dominator tree until a new DBG_VALUE is
found. When a DBG_VALUE lives in a register, its live range is confined to the
live range of the register's value.
LiveDebugVariables runs before coalescing, so DBG_VALUEs are not artificially
extended when registers are joined.
The missing half will recreate DBG_VALUE instructions from the intervals when
register allocation is complete.
The pass is disabled by default. It can be enabled with the temporary command
line option -live-debug-variables.

LiveInterval::MergeValueNumberInto instead of trying to extend LiveRanges and

This fixed PR8249 where a valno with a multi-segment live range was defined by

Eventually, we want to disable physreg coalescing completely, and let the
register allocator do its job using hints.
This option makes it possible to measure the impact of disabling physreg
coalescing.

register at a time. This turns out to be slightly faster than iterating over
instructions, but more importantly, it allows us to compute spill weights for
new registers created after the spill weight pass has run.
Also compute the allocation hint at the same time as the spill weight. This
allows us to use the spill weight as a cost metric for copies, and choose the
most profitable hint if there is more than one possibility.
The new hints provide a very small (< 0.1%) but universal code size improvement.
