+ arbitrary number of parallel instructions. It can also be used to model
+ a sequential list of instructions (potentially with data dependencies) that
+ cannot be legally separated (e.g. ARM Thumb2 IT blocks).</p>
+
+<p>Conceptually a MI bundle is a MI with a number of other MIs nested within:

+ marked with the 'InsideBundle' flag. A top level MI with the special BUNDLE
+ opcode is used to represent the start of a bundle. It's legal to mix BUNDLE
+ MIs with indiviual MIs that are not inside bundles nor represent bundles.
+</p>
+
+<p> MachineInstr passes should operate on a MI bundle as a single unit. Member
+ methods have been taught to correctly handle bundles and MIs inside bundles.
+ The MachineBasicBlock iterator has been modified to skip over bundled MIs to
+ enforce the bundle-as-a-single-unit concept. An alternative iterator
+ instr_iterator has been added to MachineBasicBlock to allow passes to
+ iterate over all of the MIs in a MachineBasicBlock, including those which
+ are nested inside bundles. The top level BUNDLE instruction must have the
+ correct set of register MachineOperand's that represent the cumulative
+ inputs and outputs of the bundled MIs.</p>
+
+<p> Packing / bundling of MachineInstr's should be done as part of the register
+ allocation super-pass. More specifically, the pass which determines what
+ MIs should be bundled together must be done after code generator exits SSA
+ form (i.e. after two-address pass, PHI elimination, and copy coalescing).
+ Bundles should only be finalized (i.e. adding BUNDLE MIs and input and
+ output register MachineOperands) after virtual registers have been
+ rewritten into physical registers. This requirement eliminates the need to
+ add virtual register operands to BUNDLE instructions which would effectively
+ double the virtual register def and use lists.</p>

+ <a name="compact_unwind">Compact Unwind</a>
+</h4>
+
+<div>
+
+<p>Throwing an exception requires <em>unwinding</em> out of a function. The
+ information on how to unwind a given function is traditionally expressed in
+ DWARF unwind (a.k.a. frame) info. But that format was originally developed
+ for debuggers to backtrace, and each Frame Description Entry (FDE) requires
+ ~20-30 bytes per function. There is also the cost of mapping from an address
+ in a function to the corresponding FDE at runtime. An alternative unwind
+ encoding is called <em>compact unwind</em> and requires just 4-bytes per
+ function.</p>
+
+<p>The compact unwind encoding is a 32-bit value, which is encoded in an
+ architecture-specific way. It specifies which registers to restore and from
+ where, and how to unwind out of the function. When the linker creates a final
+ linked image, it will create a <code>__TEXT,__unwind_info</code>
+ section. This section is a small and fast way for the runtime to access
+ unwind info for any given function. If we emit compact unwind info for the
+ function, that compact unwind info will be encoded in
+ the <code>__TEXT,__unwind_info</code> section. If we emit DWARF unwind info,
+ the <code>__TEXT,__unwind_info</code> section will contain the offset of the
+ FDE in the <code>__TEXT,__eh_frame</code> section in the final linked
+ image.</p>
+
+<p>For X86, there are three modes for the compact unwind encoding:</p>
+
+<dl>
+ <dt><i>Function with a Frame Pointer (<code>EBP</code> or <code>RBP</code>)</i></dt>
+ <dd><p><code>EBP/RBP</code>-based frame, where <code>EBP/RBP</code> is pushed
+ onto the stack immediately after the return address,
+ then <code>ESP/RSP</code> is moved to <code>EBP/RBP</code>. Thus to
+ unwind, <code>ESP/RSP</code> is restored with the
+ current <code>EBP/RBP</code> value, then <code>EBP/RBP</code> is restored
+ by popping the stack, and the return is done by popping the stack once
+ more into the PC. All non-volatile registers that need to be restored must
+ have been saved in a small range on the stack that
+ starts <code>EBP-4</code> to <code>EBP-1020</code> (<code>RBP-8</code>
+ to <code>RBP-1020</code>). The offset (divided by 4 in 32-bit mode and 8
+ in 64-bit mode) is encoded in bits 16-23 (mask: <code>0x00FF0000</code>).
+ The registers saved are encoded in bits 0-14
+ (mask: <code>0x00007FFF</code>) as five 3-bit entries from the following

+
+<p>In a Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) architecture, the compiler is
+ responsible for mapping instructions to functional-units available on
+ the architecture. To that end, the compiler creates groups of instructions
+ called <i>packets</i> or <i>bundles</i>. The VLIW packetizer in LLVM is
+ a target-independent mechanism to enable the packetization of machine
+ instructions.</p>
+
+<!-- _______________________________________________________________________ -->
+
+<h4>
+ <a name="vliw_mapping">Mapping from instructions to functional units</a>
+</h4>
+
+<div>
+
+<p>Instructions in a VLIW target can typically be mapped to multiple functional
+units. During the process of packetizing, the compiler must be able to reason
+about whether an instruction can be added to a packet. This decision can be
+complex since the compiler has to examine all possible mappings of instructions
+to functional units. Therefore to alleviate compilation-time complexity, the
+VLIW packetizer parses the instruction classes of a target and generates tables
+at compiler build time. These tables can then be queried by the provided
+machine-independent API to determine if an instruction can be accommodated in a
+packet.</p>
+</div>
+
+<!-- ======================================================================= -->
+<h4>
+ <a name="vliw_repr">
+ How the packetization tables are generated and used
+ </a>
+</h4>
+
+<div>
+
+<p>The packetizer reads instruction classes from a target's itineraries and
+creates a deterministic finite automaton (DFA) to represent the state of a
+packet. A DFA consists of three major elements: inputs, states, and
+transitions. The set of inputs for the generated DFA represents the instruction
+being added to a packet. The states represent the possible consumption
+of functional units by instructions in a packet. In the DFA, transitions from
+one state to another occur on the addition of an instruction to an existing
+packet. If there is a legal mapping of functional units to instructions, then
+the DFA contains a corresponding transition. The absence of a transition
+indicates that a legal mapping does not exist and that the instruction cannot
+be added to the packet.</p>
+
+<p>To generate tables for a VLIW target, add <i>Target</i>GenDFAPacketizer.inc
+as a target to the Makefile in the target directory. The exported API provides
+three functions: <tt>DFAPacketizer::clearResources()</tt>,
+<tt>DFAPacketizer::reserveResources(MachineInstr *MI)</tt>, and
+<tt>DFAPacketizer::canReserveResources(MachineInstr *MI)</tt>. These functions
+allow a target packetizer to add an instruction to an existing packet and to
+check whether an instruction can be added to a packet. See
+<tt>llvm/CodeGen/DFAPacketizer.h</tt> for more information.</p>

<p>Instruction aliases can also have a Requires clause to make them

+<p>If the back-end supports it, the instruction printer can automatically emit
