`+simd` and `+nosimd` are used to enable or disable NEON Instructions
when compiling for ARM Targets. However, up until now, using these
has not been possible. To enable this, these options are mapped to the
relevant LLVM backend option (`+neon` and `-neon`) so it can be both
enabled and disabled successfully by the user.
Tests have been added to ensure this behaviour is maintained in the
future, along with updates to existing tests as behaviour has now changed
relating to the use of `+simd` and `+nosimd`.
As `simd` has been mapped within the ARMTargetParser.def, support for
this extension is also added for the `--print-support-extensions` command
when the target is AArch32. This will print the `simd` option, along with the
description that relates to the Neon feature. This previously was not
possible as `simd` did not have a related Feature or Negative Feature.
To make this functional as intended, MVE and MVE.FP now rely on their
own Enum identifier, rather than `AEK_SIMD`. While SIMD does refer to
both Neon and Helium technologies, in terms of command line options,
SIMD relates to Neon. Helium relates to MVE and MVE.FP. The Enum
now reflects this too.
Similar to previous migration done for other targets (PowerPC, X86,
etc).
Note: ARMELFObjectWriter::needsRelocateWithSymbol is conservative and
already includes most specifiers.
Follow the X86, Mips, and RISCV renaming.
> "Relocation modifier" suggests adjustments happen during the linker's relocation step rather than the assembler's expression evaluation.
> "Relocation specifier" is clear, aligns with Arm and IBM AIX's documentation, and fits the assembler's role seamlessly.
In addition, rename *MCExpr::getKind, which confusingly shadows the base class getKind.
The StringRef overload is often error-prone as users might forget to
register the MCSymbol.
Add comments to MCTargetExpr and MCSymbolRefExpr::VariantKind.
In the distant future the VariantKind parameter might be removed.
Follow-up to 14951a5a3120e50084b3c5fb217e2d47992a24d1
* Unify getVariantKindName and getVariantKindForName
* Allow each target to specify the preferred case (albeit ignored in MCParser)
Note: targets that use variant kinds should call MCExpr::print with a
non-null MAI to print variant kinds. operator<< passes a nullptr to
`MCExpr::print`, which should be avoided (e.g. Hexagon; fixed in
commit cf00ac81ac049cddb80aec1d6d88b8fab4f209e8).
MCStreamer should not declare arch-specific functions. Such functions
should go to MCTargetStreamer.
Move MCMachOStreamer::emitThumbFunc to ARMTargetMachOStreamer, which is
a new subclass of ARMTargetStreamer. (The new class is just placed in
ARMMachObjectWriter.cpp. The conventional split like
ARMELFObjectWriter.cpp/ARMELFObjectWriter.cpp is overkill.)
`emitCFILabel`, called by ARMWinCOFFStreamer.cpp, has to be made public.

These instructions only have one register field in their encoding, so
both registers in the assembly must be the same.
Previously, we were accepting these instructions, but ignoring the
second register operand.
Fixes#126227
These operand parser functions for barrier instructions were returning
ParseStatus::Failure for unexpected token kinds, but not outputting an
error message, so these instructions with invalid operands were being
rejected without an error being printed.
Fixes#67949
`t2{LDR,STR}{*}_{PRE,POST}_imm` is pseudo instruction and is expected to
be `t2{LDR,STR}{*}_{PRE,POST}`. During building the new MCInst of
`t2{LDR,STR}{*}_{PRE,POST}`, the order of operands looks incorrect.
Fixes https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/97020.

If the assembler sees this instruction, understanding `foo` to be an
external symbol, there's no relocation it can write that will put the
whole value of `foo` into the 8-bit immediate field of the 16-bit Thumb
add instruction. So it should report an error message pointing at the
source line, and in LLVM 18, it did exactly that. But now the error is
not reported, due to an indexing error in the operand list in
`validateInstruction`, and instead the code continues to attempt
assembly, ending up aborting at the `llvm_unreachable` at the end of
`getHiLoImmOpValue`.
In this commit I've fixed the index in the `ARM::tMOVi8` case of
`validateInstruction`, and also the one for `tADDi8` which must cope
with either the 2- or 3-operand form in the input assembly source. But
also, while writing the test, I found that if you assemble for Armv7-M
instead of Armv6-M, the instruction has opcode `t2ADDri` when it goes
through `validateInstruction`, and only turns into `tMOVi8` later in
`processInstruction`. Then it's too late for `validateInstruction` to
report that error. So I've adjusted `processInstruction` to spot that
case and inhibit the conversion.
The register list in vscclrm is unusual in three ways:
* The encoded size can be zero, meaning the list contains only vpr.
* Double-precision registers past d15 are permitted even when the
subtarget doesn't have them, they are instead ignored when the
instruction executes.
* The single-precision variant allows double-precision registers d16
onwards, which are encoded as a pair of single-precision registers.
Fixing this also incidentally changes a vlldm/vlstm error message: when
the first register is in the range d16-d31 we now get the "operand must
be exactly..." error instead of "register expected".
This fixes all the places that hit the new assertion added in
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/106524 in tests. That is,
cases where the value passed to the APInt constructor is not an N-bit
signed/unsigned integer, where N is the bit width and signedness is
determined by the isSigned flag.
The fixes either set the correct value for isSigned, set the
implicitTrunc flag, or perform more calculations inside APInt.
Note that the assertion is currently still disabled by default, so this
patch is mostly NFC.
We can convert the MCRegister to bool instead. I think this should
allows us to remove MCRegister::operator==(int). All other comparisons
in tree are unsigned.
S.substr(N) is simpler than S.slice(N, StringRef::npos) and
S.slice(N, S.size()). Also, substr is probably better recognizable
than slice thanks to std::string_view::substr.
This was broken by https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/83436 as in
optional operands meant when the CC operand is provided the
`parsePKHImm` parser is applied to register operands, which previously
erroneously produced an error.
This changs the way the assembly matcher works for Aarch32 parsing.
Previously there was a pile of hacks which dictated whether the CC,
CCOut, and VCC operands should be present which de-facto chose if the
wide/narrow (or thumb1/thumb2/arm) instruction version were chosen.
This meant much of the TableGen machinery present for the assembly
matching was effectively being bypassed and worked around.
This patch makes the CC and CCOut operands optional which allows the ASM
matcher operate as it was designed and means we can avoid doing some of
the hacks done previously. This also adds the option for the target to
allow the prioritizing the smaller instruction encodings as is required
for Aarch32.

T1 allow for an optional registers list,
the register list must be {d0-d15}.
T2 define a mandatory register list,
the register list must be {d0-d31}.
The requirements for T1/T2 are as follows:
T1 T2
Require: v8-M.Main, v8.1-M.Main,
secure state secure state
16 D Regs valid valid
32 D Regs UNDEFINED valid

This changes the type of `PredicationCode` and `VPTPredicationCode` from
`unsigned` to `ARMCC::CondCodes` and `ARMVCC::VPTCodes` resp' for
clarity and correctness.

Linux kernel fs/binfmt_elf_fdpic.c supports FDPIC for MMU-less systems.
GCC/binutils/qemu support FDPIC ABI for ARM
(https://github.com/mickael-guene/fdpic_doc).
_ARM FDPIC Toolchain and ABI_ provides a summary.
This patch implements FDPIC relocations to the integrated assembler.
There are 6 static relocations and 2 dynamic relocations, with
R_ARM_FUNCDESC as both static and dynamic.
gas requires `--fdpic` to assemble data relocations like `.word f(FUNCDESC)`.
This patch adds `MCTargetOptions::FDPIC` and reports an error if FDPIC
is not set.

This avoids possible undefined behavior using the same register for Rm
and Rda.
Additionally adds a check in MC to produce an error upon parsing this
case.
This patch replaces uses of StringRef::{starts,ends}with with
StringRef::{starts,ends}_with for consistency with
std::{string,string_view}::{starts,ends}_with in C++20.
I'm planning to deprecate and eventually remove
StringRef::{starts,ends}with.
The floating-point and MVE features together specify the MVE
functionality that is supported on the Cortex-M85 processor. But the FPU
extension for the underlying architecture(armv8.1-m.main) is FPV5 which
does not include MVE-F. So Compiler's -S output and `-save-temps=obj`
loses MVE feature which leads to assembler error. What happening here is
.fpu directive overrides any previously set features by .cpu directive.
Since the the corresponding .fpu generated (.fpu fpv5-d16) does not
include MVE-F, it overrides those features even though it is supported
and set by the .cpu directive. Looks like .fpu is supposed to do this.
In this case, there should be an .arch_extension directive re-enabling
the relevant extensions after .fpu if the goal is to keep these
extensions enabled. GCC also does the same.
So this patch enables the MVE features by emitting the below arch
extension:
.fpu fpv5-d16
.arch_extension mve.fp

Advance the IT and VPT block state when parsing the .inst directive, so
that it is possible to use them to emit conditional instructions. If we
don't do this, then a later instruction inside or just after the block
will have a mis-matched condition, so be incorrectly reported as an
error.
