Almost all immediates in PowerPC assembly (both 32-bit and 64-bit) are signed
numbers, and it is important that we print them as such. To make sure that
happens, we change PPCTargetLowering::LowerAsmOperandForConstraint so that it
does all intermediate checks on a signed-extended int64_t value, and then
creates the resulting target constant using MVT::i64. This will ensure that all
negative values are printed as negative values (mirroring what is done in other
backends to achieve the same sign-extension effect).
This came up in the context of inline assembly like this:
"add%I2 %0,%0,%2", ..., "Ir"(-1ll)
where we used to print:
addi 3,3,4294967295
and gcc would print:
addi 3,3,-1
and gas accepts both forms, but our builtin assembler (correctly) does not. Now
we print -1 like gcc does.
While here, I replaced a bunch of custom integer checks with isInt<16> and
friends from MathExtras.h.
Thanks to Paul Hargrove for the bug report.
