On x86 this allows to fold a load into the cmp, greatly reducing register pressure.
movzbl (%rdi), %eax
cmpl $47, %eax
->
cmpb $47, (%rdi)
This shaves 8k off gcc.o on i386. I'll leave applying the patch in README.txt to Chris :)

This tends to happen a lot with bitfield code generated by clang. A simple example for x86_64 is
uint64_t foo(uint64_t x) { return (x&1) << 42; }
which used to compile into bloated code:
shlq $42, %rdi ## encoding: [0x48,0xc1,0xe7,0x2a]
movabsq $4398046511104, %rax ## encoding: [0x48,0xb8,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x04,0x00,0x00]
andq %rdi, %rax ## encoding: [0x48,0x21,0xf8]
ret ## encoding: [0xc3]
with this patch we can fold the immediate into the and:
andq $1, %rdi ## encoding: [0x48,0x83,0xe7,0x01]
movq %rdi, %rax ## encoding: [0x48,0x89,0xf8]
shlq $42, %rax ## encoding: [0x48,0xc1,0xe0,0x2a]
ret ## encoding: [0xc3]
It's possible to save another byte by using 'andl' instead of 'andq' but I currently see no way of doing
that without making this code even more complicated. See the TODOs in the code.

add <rd>, sp, #<imm8>
ldr <rd>, [sp, #<imm8>]
When the offset from sp is multiple of 4 and in range of 0-1020.
This saves code size by utilizing 16-bit instructions.

This patch depends on the prior fix r129908 that changes to use std::find,
rather than std::binary_search, on unordered array.

On the x86-64 and thumb2 targets, some registers are more expensive to encode
than others in the same register class.
Add a CostPerUse field to the TableGen register description, and make it
available from TRI->getCostPerUse. This represents the cost of a REX prefix or a
32-bit instruction encoding required by choosing a high register.
Teach the greedy register allocator to prefer cheap registers for busy live
ranges (as indicated by spill weight).

used by Clang. To help Clang integration, the PTX target has been split
into two targets: ptx32 and ptx64, depending on the desired pointer size.
- Add GCCBuiltin class to all intrinsics
- Split PTX target into ptx32 and ptx64

llvm is built with unsigned chars where an immediate such as 0xff would be zero
extended to 64-bits, turning "cmp $0xff,%eax" into
"cmp $0xffffffffffffffff,%eax".

Making use of VFP / NEON floating point multiply-accumulate / subtraction is
difficult on current ARM implementations for a few reasons.
1. Even though a single vmla has latency that is one cycle shorter than a pair
of vmul + vadd, a RAW hazard during the first (4? on Cortex-a8) can cause
additional pipeline stall. So it's frequently better to single codegen
vmul + vadd.
2. A vmla folowed by a vmul, vmadd, or vsub causes the second fp instruction to
stall for 4 cycles. We need to schedule them apart.
3. A vmla followed vmla is a special case. Obvious issuing back to back RAW
vmla + vmla is very bad. But this isn't ideal either:
vmul
vadd
vmla
Instead, we want to expand the second vmla:
vmla
vmul
vadd
Even with the 4 cycle vmul stall, the second sequence is still 2 cycles
faster.
Up to now, isel simply avoid codegen'ing fp vmla / vmls. This works well enough
but it isn't the optimial solution. This patch attempts to make it possible to
use vmla / vmls in cases where it is profitable.
A. Add missing isel predicates which cause vmla to be codegen'ed.
B. Make sure the fmul in (fadd (fmul)) has a single use. We don't want to
compute a fmul and a fmla.
C. Add additional isel checks for vmla, avoid cases where vmla is feeding into
fp instructions (except for the #3 exceptional case).
D. Add ARM hazard recognizer to model the vmla / vmls hazards.
E. Add a special pre-regalloc case to expand vmla / vmls when it's likely the
vmla / vmls will trigger one of the special hazards.
Enable these fp vmlx codegen changes for Cortex-A9.

Add a avoidWriteAfterWrite() target hook to identify register classes that
suffer from write-after-write hazards. For those register classes, try to avoid
writing the same register in two consecutive instructions.
This is currently disabled by default. We should not spill to avoid hazards!
The command line flag -avoid-waw-hazard can be used to enable waw avoidance.

when they are a truncate from something else. This eliminates fully half of all the
fastisel rejections on a test c++ file I'm working with, which should make a substantial
improvement for -O0 compile of c++ code.
This fixed rdar://9297003 - fast isel bails out on all functions taking bools

Before we would bail out on i1 arguments all together, now we just bail on
non-constant ones. Also, we used to emit extraneous code. e.g. test12 was:
movb $0, %al
movzbl %al, %edi
callq _test12
and test13 was:
movb $0, %al
xorl %edi, %edi
movb %al, 7(%rsp)
callq _test13f
Now we get:
movl $0, %edi
callq _test12
and:
movl $0, %edi
callq _test13f

is, it assumes addresses are 64-bit aligned (which should be the more common
case). If the alignment is found not to be aligned, then getOperandLatency()
would adjust the operand latency computation by one to compensate for it.
