      Improve ValueAlreadyLiveAtInst with a cheap and dirty, but effective · 6d71b7fb
      Chris Lattner authored
      heuristic: the value is already live at the new memory operation if
      it is used by some other instruction in the memop's block.  This is
      cheap and simple to compute (moreso than full liveness).
      
      This improves the new heuristic even more.  For example, it cuts two
      out of three new instructions out of 255.vortex:DbmFileInGrpHdr, 
      which is one of the functions that the heuristic regressed.  This
      overall eliminates another 40 instructions from 403.gcc and visibly
      reduces register pressure in 255.vortex (though this only actually
      ends up saving the 2 instructions from the whole program).

      phrased in terms of liveness instead of as a horrible hack.  :)
      
      In pratice, this doesn't change the generated code for either 
      255.vortex or 403.gcc, but it could cause minor code changes in 
      theory.  This is framework for coming changes.

      This adds in some code (currently disabled unless you pass · eb3e4fb6
      Chris Lattner authored
      -enable-smarter-addr-folding to llc) that gives CGP a better
      cost model for when to sink computations into addressing modes.
      The basic observation is that sinking increases register 
      pressure when part of the addr computation has to be available
      for other reasons, such as having a use that is a non-memory
      operation.  In cases where it works, it can substantially reduce
      register pressure.
      
      This code is currently an overall win on 403.gcc and 255.vortex
      (the two things I've been looking at), but there are several 
      things I want to do before enabling it by default:
      
      1. This isn't doing any caching of results, so it is much slower 
         than it could be.  It currently slows down release-asserts llc 
         by 1.7% on 176.gcc: 27.12s -> 27.60s.
      2. This doesn't think about inline asm memory operands yet.
      3. The cost model botches the case when the needed value is live
         across the computation for other reasons.
      
      I'll continue poking at this, and eventually turn it on as llcbeta.

      optimize addressing modes.  This allows us to optimize things like isel-sink2.ll
      into:
      
      	movl	4(%esp), %eax
      	cmpb	$0, 4(%eax)
      	jne	LBB1_2	## F
      LBB1_1:	## TB
      	movl	$4, %eax
      	ret
      LBB1_2:	## F
      	movzbl	7(%eax), %eax
      	ret
      
      instead of:
      
      _test:
      	movl	4(%esp), %eax
      	cmpb	$0, 4(%eax)
      	leal	4(%eax), %eax
      	jne	LBB1_2	## F
      LBB1_1:	## TB
      	movl	$4, %eax
      	ret
      LBB1_2:	## F
      	movzbl	3(%eax), %eax
      	ret
      
      This shrinks (e.g.) 403.gcc from 1133510 to 1128345 lines of .s.
      
      Note that the 2008-10-16-SpillerBug.ll testcase is dubious at best, I doubt
      it is really testing what it thinks it is.

      change AnnotationManager to use 'const char*' instead of std::string. this fixes the leakage of those strings and avoids the creation of such strings in static cosntructors (should result in a little improvement of startup time)
