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.

Fixes http://llvm.org/PR5737 and http://llvm.org/PR5735.

for all the processors where I have tried it, and even when it might not help
performance, the cost is quite low.  The opportunities for duplicating
indirect branches are limited by other factors so code size does not change
much due to tail duplicating indirect branches aggressively.

than doing the same via constpool:
1. Load from constpool costs 3 cycles on A9, movt/movw pair - just 2.
2. Load from constpool might stall up to 300 cycles due to cache miss.
3. Movt/movw does not use load/store unit.
4. Less constpool entries => better compiler performance.

This is only enabled on ELF systems, since darwin does not have needed
relocations (yet).

contents of the block to be duplicated.  Use this for ARM Cortex A8/9 to
be more aggressive tail duplicating indirect branches, since it makes it
much more likely that they will be predicted in the branch target buffer.
Testcase coming soon.

Remove neonfp attribute and instead set default based on CPU string. Add -arm-use-neon-fp to override the default.

llvm-svn: 83218

Restore the -post-RA-scheduler flag as an override for the target specification. Remove -mattr for setting PostRAScheduler enable and instead use CPU string.

llvm-svn: 83215

Remove -post-RA-schedule flag and add a TargetSubtarget method to enable post-register-allocation scheduling. By default it is off. For ARM, enable/disable with -mattr=+/-postrasched. Enable by default for cortex-a8.

Reference to hidden symbols do not have to go through non-lazy pointer in non-pic mode. rdar://7187172.

Let Darwin linker auto-synthesize stubs and lazy-pointers. This deletes a bunch of nasty code in ARM asm printer.

Initial support for single-precision FP using NEON. Added "neonfp" attribute to enable. Added patterns for some binary FP operations.

Also, dropped uses of TargetMachine where unnecessary. The only target which
still takes a TargetMachine& is Mips, I would appreciate it if someone would
normalize this to match other targets.

16-bit long.

Also, we should be using BLX to call external function stubs.

ARM target now also recognize triplets like thumbv6-apple-darwin and set thumb mode and arch subversion. Eventually thumb triplets will go way and replaced with function notes.
