On MachO, sections also have segment names. When a tool looking at a .o file
prints a segment name, this is what they mean. In reality, a .o has only one
anonymous, segment.
This patch adds a MachO only function to fetch that segment name. I named it
getSectionFinalSegmentName since the main use for the name seems to be inform
the linker with segment this section should go to.
The patch also changes MachOObjectFile::getSectionName to return just the
section name instead of computing SegmentName,SectionName.
The main difference from the previous patch is that it doesn't use
InMemoryStruct. It is extremely dangerous: if the endians match it returns
a pointer to the file buffer, if not, it returns a pointer to an internal buffer
that is overwritten in the next API call.
We should change all of this code to use
support::detail::packed_endian_specific_integral like ELF, but since these
functions only handle strings, they work with big and little endian machines
as is.
I have tested this by installing ubuntu 12.10 ppc on qemu, that is why it took
so long :-)

Instructions that are inserted in a basic block can still be decorated
with addOperand(MO).
Make the two-argument addOperand() function contain the actual
implementation. This function will now always have a valid MF reference
that it can use for memory allocation.
llvm-svn: 170798
This function is often used to decorate dangling instructions, so a
context reference is required to allocate memory for the operands.
Also add a corresponding MachineInstrBuilder method.

Rename the AttributeImpl* from Attrs to pImpl to be consistent with other code.
Add comments where none were before. Or doxygen-ify other comments.

This is supposed to be a mechanical change with no functional effects.
InstrEmitter can generate all types of MachineOperands which revealed
that MachineInstrBuilder was missing a few methods, added by this patch.
Besides providing a context pointer to MI::addOperand(),
MachineInstrBuilder seems like a better fit for this code.
llvm-svn: 170712
Similarly inlining of the function is inhibited, if that would duplicate the call (in particular inlining is still allowed when there is only one callsite and the function has internal linkage).

MC disassembler clients (LLDB) are interested in querying if an
instruction may affect control flow other than by virtue of being
an explicit branch instruction. For example, instructions which
write directly to the PC on some architectures.
llvm-svn: 170610
These were defined on TargetRegisterInfo, but they don't use any information
that's not available in MCRegisterInfo, so sink them down to be available
at the MC layer.

Use the version that also takes an MF reference instead.
It would technically be possible to extract an MF reference from the MI
as MI->getParent()->getParent(), but that would not work for MIs that
are not inserted into any basic block.
Given the reasonably small number of places this constructor was used at
all, I preferred the compile time check to a run time assertion.
llvm-svn: 170588
Just like for addMemOperand(), the function pointer provides a context
for allocating memory. This will make it possible to use a better memory
allocation strategy for the MI operand list, which is currently a slow
std::vector.
Most calls to addOperand() come from MachineInstrBuilder, so give that
class an MF reference as well. Code using BuildMI() won't need changing
at all since the MF reference is already required to allocate a
MachineInstr.
Future patches will fix code that calls MI::addOperand(Op) directly, as
well as code that uses the now deprecated MachineInstrBuilder(MI)
constructor.

- An MVT can become an EVT when being split (e.g. v2i8 -> v1i8, the latter doesn't exist)
- Return the scalar value when an MVT is scalarized (v1i64 -> i64)
Fixes PR14639ff.

I cannot reproduce it the failures locally, so I will keep an eye at the ppc
bots. This patch does add the change to the "Disassembly of section" message,
but that is not what was failing on the bots.
Original message:
Add a funciton to get the segment name of a section.
On MachO, sections also have segment names. When a tool looking at a .o file
prints a segment name, this is what they mean. In reality, a .o has only one
anonymous, segment.
This patch adds a MachO only function to fetch that segment name. I named it
getSectionFinalSegmentName since the main use for the name seems to be infor
the linker with segment this section should go to.
The patch also changes MachOObjectFile::getSectionName to return just the
section name instead of computing SegmentName,SectionName.
