This set of instructions was only supported by AMD chips starting in
the K6-2 (introduced 1998), and before the "Bulldozer" family
(2011). They were never much used, as they were effectively superseded
by the more-widely-implemented SSE (first implemented on the AMD side
in Athlon XP in 2001).
This is being done as a predecessor towards general removal of MMX
register usage. Since there is almost no usage of the 3DNow!
intrinsics, and no modern hardware even implements them, simple
removal seems like the best option.

Works towards issue #41665 and issue #98272.
Printing the raw symbol is useful in inline asm (e.g. getting the C++
mangled name, referencing a symbol in a custom way while ensuring it is
not optimized out even if internal). Similar constraints are available
in other targets (e.g. "S" for aarch64/riscv, "Cs" for m68k).
```
namespace ns { extern int var, a[4]; }
void foo() {
asm(".pushsection .xxx,\"aw\"; .dc.a %p0; .popsection" :: "Ws"(&ns::var));
asm(".reloc ., BFD_RELOC_NONE, %p0" :: "Ws"(&ns::a[3]));
}
```

Since Knight Landing and Knight Mill microarchitectures are EOL, we
would like to remove intrinsic supports for its specific ISA in LLVM 19.
In LLVM 18, we will first emit a warning for the usage.
Positive options: -mapx-features=<comma-separated-features>
Negative options: -mno-apx-features=<comma-separated-features>
-m[no-]apx-features is designed to be able to control separate APX
features.
Besides, we also support the flag -m[no-]apxf, which can be used like an
alias of -m[no-]apx-features=< all APX features covered by CPUID APX_F>
Behaviour when positive and negative options are used together:
For boolean flags, the last one wins
-mapxf -mno-apxf -> -mno-apxf
-mno-apxf -mapxf -> -mapxf
For flags that take a set as arguments, it sets the mask by order of the
flags
-mapx-features=egpr,ndd -mno-apx-features=egpr -> -egpr,+ndd
-mapx-features=egpr -mno-apx-features=egpr,ndd -> -egpr,-ndd
-mno-apx-features=egpr -mapx-features=egpr,ndd -> +egpr,+ndd
-mno-apx-features=egpr,ndd -mapx-features=egpr -> -ndd,+egpr
The design is aligned with gcc

This patch relaxes the driver logic to permit combinations between
AVX512 and AVX10 options and makes sure we have a unified behavior
between options and features combination.
Here are rules we are following when handle these combinations:
1. evex512 can only be used for avx512xxx options/features. It will be
ignored if used without them;
2. avx512xxx and avx10.xxx are options in two worlds. Avoid to use them
together in any case. It will enable a common super set when they are
used together. E.g., "-mavx512f -mavx10.1-256" euqals "-mavx10.1-512".
Compiler emits warnings when user using combinations like "-mavx512f
-mavx10.1-256" in case they won't get unexpected result silently.
Function target feature attribute follows the same rule now. We have to
add "no-evex512" feature for intrinsics shared between AVX512 and AVX10.
We also add "no-evex512" for early ISAs like AVX etc., because some of
them are called by AVX512 intrinsics.
This is an alternative of D157485 and a pre-feature to support AVX10.

RFC: https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-design-for-avx10-feature-support/72661
Based on the feedbacks from LLVM and GCC community, we have agreed to
start from supporting `-m[no-]evex512` on existing AVX512 features.
The option `-mno-evex512` can be used with `-mavx512xxx` to build
binaries that can run on both legacy AVX512 targets and AVX10-256.
There're still arguments about what's the expected behavior when this
option as well as `-mavx512xxx` used together with `-mavx10.1-256`. We
decided to defer the support of `-mavx10.1` after we made consensus.
Or furthermore, we start from supporting AVX10.2 and not providing any
AVX10.1 options.

GCC 12 (https://gcc.gnu.org/PR101696) allows
__builtin_cpu_supports("x86-64") (and -v2 -v3 -v4).
This patch ports the feature.
* Add `FEATURE_X86_64_{BASELINE,V2,V3,V4}` to enum ProcessorFeatures,
but keep CPU_FEATURE_MAX unchanged to make
FeatureInfos/FeatureInfos_WithPLUS happy.
* Change validateCpuSupports to allow `x86-64{,-v2,-v3,-v4}`
* Change getCpuSupportsMask to return `std::array<uint32_t, 4>` where
`x86-64{,-v2,-v3,-v4}` set bits `FEATURE_X86_64_{BASELINE,V2,V3,V4}`.
* `target("x86-64")` and `cpu_dispatch(x86_64)` are invalid. Tested by commit 9de3b35ac9

This refactor patch means to remove CPU_SPECIFIC* MACROs in X86TargetParser.def
and move those information into ProcInfo of X86TargetParser.cpp. Since these
two files both maintain a table with redundant info such as cpuname and its
features supported. CPU_SPECIFIC* MACROs define some different information. This
patch dealt with them in these ways when moving:
1.mangling
This is now moved to Mangling in ProcInfo and directly initialized at array of
Processors. CPUs don't support cpu_dispatch/specific are assigned '\0' as
mangling.
2.CPU alias
The alias cpu will also be initialized in array of Processors, its attributes
will be same as its alias target cpu. Same feature list, same mangling.
3.TUNE_NAME
Before my change, some cpu names support cpu_dispatch/specific are not
supported in X86.td, which means optimizer/backend doesn't recognize them. So
they use a different TUNE_NAME to generate in IR. In this patch, I added these
missing cpu support at X86.td by utilizing existing Features and XXXTunings, so
that each cpu name can directly use its own name as TUNE_NAME to be supported
by optimizer/backend.
4.Feature list
The feature list of one CPU maintained in X86TargetParser.def is not same as
the one in X86TargetParser.cpp. It only maintains part of features of one CPU
(features defined by X86_FEATURE_COMPAT). While X86TargetParser.cpp maintains
a complete one. This patch abandons the feature list maintained by CPU_SPECIFIC*
MACROs because assigning a CPU with a complete one doesn't affect the
functionality of cpu_dispatch/specific.
Except these four info, since some of CPUs supported by cpu_dispatch/specific
doesn's support clang options like -march, -mtune before, this patch also kept
this behavior still by adding another member OnlyForCPUDispatchSpecific in
ProcInfo.

Pursuant to discussions at
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-c-23-p1467r9-extended-floating-point-types-and-standard-names/70033/22,
this commit enhances the handling of the __bf16 type in Clang.
- Firstly, it upgrades __bf16 from a storage-only type to an arithmetic
type.
- Secondly, it changes the mangling of __bf16 to DF16b on all
architectures except ARM. This change has been made in
accordance with the finalization of the mangling for the
std::bfloat16_t type, as discussed at
https://github.com/itanium-cxx-abi/cxx-abi/pull/147.
- Finally, this commit extends the existing excess precision support to
the __bf16 type. This applies to hardware architectures that do not
natively support bfloat16 arithmetic.
Appropriate tests have been added to verify the effects of these
changes and ensure no regressions in other areas of the compiler.
