2017-06-30Remove the BBVectorize pass.Chandler Carruth
It served us well, helped kick-start much of the vectorization efforts in LLVM, etc. Its time has come and past. Back in 2014: http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2014-November/079091.html Time to actually let go and move forward. =] I've updated the release notes both about the removal and the deprecation of the corresponding C API. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@306797 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2016-11-18Timer: Track name and description.Matthias Braun
The previously used "names" are rather descriptions (they use multiple words and contain spaces), use short programming language identifier like strings for the "names" which should be used when exporting to machine parseable formats.

2016-05-23Extract renaming from D19181Amaury Sechet

2016-05-05SDAG: Rename Select->SelectImpl and repurpose Select as returning voidJustin Bogner
This is a step towards removing the rampant undefined behaviour in SelectionDAG, which is a part of llvm.org/PR26808. We rename SelectionDAGISel::Select to SelectImpl and update targets to match, and then change Select to return void and consolidate the sketchy behaviour we're trying to get away from there. Next, we'll update backends to implement `void Select(...)` instead of SelectImpl and eventually drop the base Select implementation. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@268693 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2016-04-20Add LLVMGetAttrKindID in the C API in order to facilitate migration away ↵Amaury Sechet
from LLVMAttribute Summary: LLVMAttribute has outlived its utility and is becoming a problem for C API users that what to use all the LLVM attributes. In order to help moving away from LLVMAttribute in a smooth manner, this diff introduce LLVMGetAttrKindIDInContext, which can be used instead of the enum values. See D18749 for reference.

2016-03-31Change eliminateCallFramePseudoInstr() to return an iteratorHans Wennborg
This will become necessary in a subsequent change to make this method merge adjacent stack adjustments, i.e. it might erase the previous and/or next instruction. It also greatly simplifies the calls to this function from Prolog- EpilogInserter. Previously, that had a bunch of logic to resume iteration after the call; now it just continues with the returned iterator. Note that this changes the behaviour of PEI a little. Previously, it attempted to re-visit the new instruction created by eliminateCallFramePseudoInstr(). That code was added in r36625, but I can't see any reason for it: the new instructions will obviously not be pseudo instructions, they will not have FrameIndex operands, and we have already accounted for the stack adjustment.
