It's not necessary to do rounding for alloca operations when the requested
alignment is equal to the stack alignment. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@40004 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

+To-do
+-----
+
+* Keep the address of the constant pool in a register instead of forming its
+ address all of the time.
+* We can fold small constant offsets into the %hi/%lo references to constant
+ pool addresses as well.
+* When in V9 mode, register allocate %icc[0-3].
+* Emit the 'Branch on Integer Register with Prediction' instructions. It's
+ not clear how to write a pattern for this though:
+
+float %t1(int %a, int* %p) {
+ %C = seteq int %a, 0
+ br bool %C, label %T, label %F
+T:
+ store int 123, int* %p
+ br label %F
+F:
+ ret float undef
+}
+
+codegens to this:
+
+t1:
+ save -96, %o6, %o6
+1) subcc %i0, 0, %l0
+1) bne .LBBt1_2 ! F
+ nop
+.LBBt1_1: ! T
+ or %g0, 123, %l0
+ st %l0, [%i1]
+.LBBt1_2: ! F
+ restore %g0, %g0, %g0
+ retl
+ nop
+
+1) should be replaced with a brz in V9 mode.
+
+* Same as above, but emit conditional move on register zero (p192) in V9
+ mode. Testcase:
+
+int %t1(int %a, int %b) {
+ %C = seteq int %a, 0
+ %D = select bool %C, int %a, int %b
+ ret int %D
+}
+
+* Emit MULX/[SU]DIVX instructions in V9 mode instead of fiddling
+ with the Y register, if they are faster.
+
+* Codegen bswap(load)/store(bswap) -> load/store ASI
+
+* Implement frame pointer elimination, e.g. eliminate save/restore for
+ leaf fns.
+* Fill delay slots
+
