2013-05-04AArch64: implement large code model access to global variables.Tim Northover
The MOVZ/MOVK instruction sequence may not be the most efficient (a literal-pool load could be better) but adding that would require reinstating the ConstantIslands pass. For now the sequence is correct, and that's enough. Beware, as of commit GNU ld does not appear to support the relocations needed for this. Its primary purpose (for now) will be to support JITed code, since in that case there is no guarantee of where your code will end up in memory relative to external symbols it references. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@181117 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2013-02-05Remove cyclic dependency in AArch64 librariesTim Northover
This moves the bit twiddling and string fiddling functions required by other parts of the backend into a separate library. Previously they resided in AArch64Desc, which created a circular dependency between various components. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@174369 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2013-01-31Add AArch64 as an experimental target.Tim Northover
This patch adds support for AArch64 (ARM's 64-bit architecture) to LLVM in the "experimental" category. Currently, it won't be built unless requested explicitly. This initial commit should have support for: + Assembly of all scalar (i.e. non-NEON, non-Crypto) instructions (except the late addition CRC instructions). + CodeGen features required for C++03 and C99. + Compilation for the "small" memory model: code+static data < 4GB. + Absolute and position-independent code. + GNU-style (i.e. "__thread") TLS. + Debugging information. The principal omission, currently, is performance tuning. This patch excludes the NEON support also reviewed due to an outbreak of batshit insanity in our legal department. That will be committed soon bringing the changes to precisely what has been approved. Further reviews would be gratefully received. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@174054 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
