AVX is available, and generally tidy up things surrounding UNPCK
formation.
Originally, I was thinking that the only advantage of PSHUFD over UNPCK
instruction variants was its free copy, and otherwise we should use the
shorter encoding UNPCK instructions. This isn't right though, there is
a larger advantage of being able to fold a load into the operand of
a PSHUFD. For UNPCK, the operand *must* be in a register so it can be
the second input.
This removes the UNPCK formation in the target-specific DAG combine for
v4i32 shuffles. It also lifts the v8 and v16 cases out of the
AVX-specific check as they are potentially replacing multiple
instructions with a single instruction and so should always be valuable.
The floating point checks are simplified accordingly.
This also adjusts the formation of PSHUFD instructions to attempt to
match the shuffle mask to one which would fit an UNPCK instruction
variant. This was originally motivated to allow it to match the UNPCK
instructions in the combiner, but clearly won't now.
Eventually, we should add a MachineCombiner pass that can form UNPCK
instructions post-RA when the operand is known to be in a register and
thus there is no loss.

of normally binary shuffle instructions like PUNPCKL and MOVLHPS.
This detects cases where a single register is used for both operands
making the shuffle behave in a unary way. We detect this and adjust the
mask to use the unary form which allows the existing DAG combine for
shuffle instructions to actually work at all.
As a consequence, this uncovered a number of obvious bugs in the
existing DAG combine which are fixed. It also now canonicalizes several
shuffles even with the existing lowering. These typically are trying to
match the shuffle to the domain of the input where before we only really
modeled them with the floating point variants. All of the cases which
change to an integer shuffle here have something in the integer domain, so
there are no more or fewer domain crosses here AFAICT. Technically, it
might be better to go from a GPR directly to the floating point domain,
but detecting floating point *outputs* despite integer inputs is a lot
more code and seems unlikely to be worthwhile in practice. If folks are
seeing domain-crossing regressions here though, let me know and I can
hack something up to fix it.
Also as a consequence, a bunch of missed opportunities to form pshufb
now can be formed. Notably, splats of i8s now form pshufb.
Interestingly, this improves the existing splat lowering too. We go from
3 instructions to 1. Yes, we may tie up a register, but it seems very
likely to be worth it, especially if splatting the 0th byte (the
common case) as then we can use a zeroed register as the mask.

instructions in the legalized DAG, and leverage it to combine long
sequences of instructions to PSHUFB.
Eventually, the other x86-instruction-specific shuffle combines will
probably all be driven out of this routine. But the real motivation is
to detect after we have fully legalized and optimized a shuffle to the
minimal number of x86 instructions whether it is profitable to replace
the chain with a fully generic PSHUFB instruction even though doing so
requires either a load from a constant pool or tying up a register with
the mask.
While the Intel manuals claim it should be used when it replaces 5 or
more instructions (!!!!) my experience is that it is actually very fast
on modern chips, and so I've gon with a much more aggressive model of
replacing any sequence of 3 or more instructions.
I've also taught it to do some basic canonicalization to special-purpose
instructions which have smaller encodings than their generic
counterparts.
There are still quite a few FIXMEs here, and I've not yet implemented
support for lowering blends with PSHUFB (where its power really shines
due to being able to zero out lanes), but this starts implementing real
PSHUFB support even when using the new, fancy shuffle lowering. =]

The xorps instruction is smaller than pxor, so prefer that encoding.
The ExecutionDepsFix pass will switch the encoding to pxor and xorpd
when appropriate.

take into consideration the presence of AVX. This change, together with
the SSEDomainFix enabled for AVX, makes AVX codegen to always (hopefully)
emit the same code as SSE for 128-bit vector ops. I don't
have a testcase for this, but AVX now beats SSE in performance for
128-bit ops in the majority of programas in the llvm testsuite

there is no support for native 256-bit shuffles, be more smart in some
cases, for example, when you can extract specific 128-bit parts and use
regular 128-bit shuffles for them. Example:
For this shuffle:
shufflevector <4 x i64> %a, <4 x i64> %b, <4 x i32>
<i32 1, i32 0, i32 7, i32 6>
This was expanded to:
vextractf128 $1, %ymm1, %xmm2
vpextrq $0, %xmm2, %rax
vmovd %rax, %xmm1
vpextrq $1, %xmm2, %rax
vmovd %rax, %xmm2
vpunpcklqdq %xmm1, %xmm2, %xmm1
vpextrq $0, %xmm0, %rax
vmovd %rax, %xmm2
vpextrq $1, %xmm0, %rax
vmovd %rax, %xmm0
vpunpcklqdq %xmm2, %xmm0, %xmm0
vinsertf128 $1, %xmm1, %ymm0, %ymm0
ret
Now we get:
vshufpd $1, %xmm0, %xmm0, %xmm0
vextractf128 $1, %ymm1, %xmm1
vshufpd $1, %xmm1, %xmm1, %xmm1
vinsertf128 $1, %xmm1, %ymm0, %ymm0
