The Ampere1B is Ampere's third-generation core implementing a
superscalar, out-of-order microarchitecture with nested virtualization,
speculative side-channel mitigation and architectural support for
defense against ROP/JOP style software attacks.
Ampere1B is an ARMv8.7+ implementation, adding support for the FEAT
WFxT, FEAT CSSC, FEAT PAN3 and FEAT AFP extensions. It also includes all
features of the second-generation Ampere1A, such as the Memory Tagging
Extension and SM3/SM4 cryptography instructions.
This patch extends the -mcpu/mtune=native support to handle the
Microsoft Azure Cobalt 100 CPU as a Neoverse N2. We expect users to use
-mcpu=neoverse-n2 when targeting this CPU and all the architecture and
codegen decisions to be identical.
The only difference is that the Microsoft Azure Cobalt 100 has a
different Implementer ID in the /proc/cpuinfo entry that needs to be
detected in getHostCPUNameForARM appropriately.
The Ampere1A core improves on the Ampere1 with key differences being:
* memory tagging is supported
* SM3/SM4 are supported
* adds a new fusion pair for (A+B+1 and A-B-1)

This is a fairly large changeset, but it can be broken into a few
pieces:
- `llvm/Support/*TargetParser*` are all moved from the LLVM Support
component into a new LLVM Component called "TargetParser". This
potentially enables using tablegen to maintain this information, as
is shown in https://reviews.llvm.org/D137517. This cannot currently
be done, as llvm-tblgen relies on LLVM's Support component.
- This also moves two files from Support which use and depend on
information in the TargetParser:
- `llvm/Support/Host.{h,cpp}` which contains functions for inspecting
the current Host machine for info about it, primarily to support
getting the host triple, but also for `-mcpu=native` support in e.g.
Clang. This is fairly tightly intertwined with the information in
`X86TargetParser.h`, so keeping them in the same component makes
sense.
- `llvm/ADT/Triple.h` and `llvm/Support/Triple.cpp`, which contains
the target triple parser and representation. This is very intertwined
with the Arm target parser, because the arm architecture version
appears in canonical triples on arm platforms.
- I moved the relevant unittests to their own directory.
And so, we end up with a single component that has all the information
about the following, which to me seems like a unified component:
- Triples that LLVM Knows about
- Architecture names and CPUs that LLVM knows about
- CPU detection logic for LLVM
Given this, I have also moved `RISCVISAInfo.h` into this component, as
it seems to me to be part of that same set of functionality.
If you get link errors in your components after this patch, you likely
need to add TargetParser into LLVM_LINK_COMPONENTS in CMake.
