instructions in the legalized DAG, and leverage it to combine long
sequences of instructions to PSHUFB.
Eventually, the other x86-instruction-specific shuffle combines will
probably all be driven out of this routine. But the real motivation is
to detect after we have fully legalized and optimized a shuffle to the
minimal number of x86 instructions whether it is profitable to replace
the chain with a fully generic PSHUFB instruction even though doing so
requires either a load from a constant pool or tying up a register with
the mask.
While the Intel manuals claim it should be used when it replaces 5 or
more instructions (!!!!) my experience is that it is actually very fast
on modern chips, and so I've gon with a much more aggressive model of
replacing any sequence of 3 or more instructions.
I've also taught it to do some basic canonicalization to special-purpose
instructions which have smaller encodings than their generic
counterparts.
There are still quite a few FIXMEs here, and I've not yet implemented
support for lowering blends with PSHUFB (where its power really shines
due to being able to zero out lanes), but this starts implementing real
PSHUFB support even when using the new, fancy shuffle lowering. =]

The xorps instruction is smaller than pxor, so prefer that encoding.
The ExecutionDepsFix pass will switch the encoding to pxor and xorpd
when appropriate.

take into consideration the presence of AVX. This change, together with
the SSEDomainFix enabled for AVX, makes AVX codegen to always (hopefully)
emit the same code as SSE for 128-bit vector ops. I don't
have a testcase for this, but AVX now beats SSE in performance for
128-bit ops in the majority of programas in the llvm testsuite

there is no support for native 256-bit shuffles, be more smart in some
cases, for example, when you can extract specific 128-bit parts and use
regular 128-bit shuffles for them. Example:
For this shuffle:
shufflevector <4 x i64> %a, <4 x i64> %b, <4 x i32>
<i32 1, i32 0, i32 7, i32 6>
This was expanded to:
vextractf128 $1, %ymm1, %xmm2
vpextrq $0, %xmm2, %rax
vmovd %rax, %xmm1
vpextrq $1, %xmm2, %rax
vmovd %rax, %xmm2
vpunpcklqdq %xmm1, %xmm2, %xmm1
vpextrq $0, %xmm0, %rax
vmovd %rax, %xmm2
vpextrq $1, %xmm0, %rax
vmovd %rax, %xmm0
vpunpcklqdq %xmm2, %xmm0, %xmm0
vinsertf128 $1, %xmm1, %ymm0, %ymm0
ret
Now we get:
vshufpd $1, %xmm0, %xmm0, %xmm0
vextractf128 $1, %ymm1, %xmm1
vshufpd $1, %xmm1, %xmm1, %xmm1
vinsertf128 $1, %xmm1, %ymm0, %ymm0
