* [PowerPC] Generate little-endian object filesUlrich Weigand2014-03-241-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As a first step towards real little-endian code generation, this patch changes the PowerPC MC layer to actually generate little-endian object files. This involves passing the little-endian flag through the various layers, including down to createELFObjectWriter so we actually get basic little-endian ELF objects, emitting instructions in little-endian order, and handling fixups and relocations as appropriate for little-endian. The bulk of the patch is to update most test cases in test/MC/PowerPC to verify both big- and little-endian encodings. (The only test cases *not* updated are those that create actual big-endian ABI code, like the TLS tests.) Note that while the object files are now little-endian, the generated code itself is not yet updated, in particular, it still does not adhere to the ELFv2 ABI. llvm-svn: 204634
* Cleanup PPC Altivec registers in CSR lists and improve VRSAVE handlingHal Finkel2013-07-021-0/+235
There are a couple of (small) related changes here: 1. The printed name of the VRSAVE register has been changed from VRsave to vrsave in order to match the name accepted by GNU binutils. 2. Support for parsing vrsave has been added to the asm parser (it seems that there was no test case specifically covering this code, so I've added one). 3. The list of Altivec registers, which was common to all calling conventions, has been separated out. This allows us to define the base CSR lists, and then lists for each ABI with Altivec included. This allows SjLj, for example, to work correctly on non-Altivec targets without using unnatural definitions of the NoRegs CSR list. 4. VRSAVE is now always reserved on non-Darwin targets and all Altivec registers are reserved when Altivec is disabled. With these changes, it is now possible to compile a function containing __builtin_unwind_init() on Linux/PPC64 with debugging information. This did not work previously because GNU binutils assumes that all .cfi_offset offsets will be 8-byte aligned on PPC64 (and errors out if you provide a non-8-byte-aligned offset). This is not true for the vrsave register, however, because this register is used only on Darwin, GCC does not bother printing a .cfi_offset entry for it (even though there is a slot in the stack frame for it as specified by the ABI). This change allows us to do the same: we will also not print .cfi_offset directives for vrsave. llvm-svn: 185409
