* We would really like to support UXTAB16, but we need to prove that the
add doesn't need to overflow between the two 16-bit chunks.
-* implement predication support
* Implement pre/post increment support. (e.g. PR935)
* Coalesce stack slots!
* Implement smarter constant generation for binops with large immediates.

+Crazy idea: Consider code that uses lots of 8-bit or 16-bit values. By the
+time regalloc happens, these values are now in a 32-bit register, usually with
+the top-bits known to be sign or zero extended. If spilled, we should be able
+to spill these to a 8-bit or 16-bit stack slot, zero or sign extending as part
+of the reload.
+
+Doing this reduces the size of the stack frame (important for thumb etc), and
+also increases the likelihood that we will be able to reload multiple values
+from the stack with a single load.

The constant island pass is in good shape. Some cleanups might be desirable,
but there is unlikely to be much improvement in the generated code.
1. There may be some advantage to trying to be smarter about the initial
placement, rather than putting everything at the end.
-2. The handling of 2-byte padding for Thumb is overly conservative. There
-would be a small gain to keeping accurate track of the padding (which would
-require aligning functions containing constant pools to 4-byte boundaries).
-
-3. There might be some compile-time efficiency to be had by representing
+2. There might be some compile-time efficiency to be had by representing
consecutive islands as a single block rather than multiple blocks.
+3. Use a priority queue to sort constant pool users in inverse order of
+ position so we always process the one closed to the end of functions
+ first. This may simply CreateNewWater.

//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-We need to start generating predicated instructions. The .td files have a way
-to express this now (see the PPC conditional return instruction), but the
-branch folding pass (or a new if-cvt pass) should start producing these, at
-least in the trivial case.
+Eliminate copysign custom expansion. We are still generating crappy code with
+default expansion + if-conversion.
-Among the obvious wins, doing so can eliminate the need to custom expand
-copysign (i.e. we won't need to custom expand it to get the conditional
-negate).

gcc generates smaller code for this function at -O2 or -Os:
void foo(signed char* p) {
each comparison, where there should be only one, and the condition codes
are not remembered when the same two values are compared twice.

+
+More register scavenging work:
+
+1. Use the register scavenger to track frame index materialized into registers
+ (those that do not fit in addressing modes) to allow reuse in the same BB.
+2. Finish scavenging for Thumb.
+3. We know some spills and restores are unnecessary. The issue is once live
+ intervals are merged, they are not never split. So every def is spilled
+ and every use requires a restore if the register allocator decides the
+ resulting live interval is not assigned a physical register. It may be
+ possible (with the help of the scavenger) to turn some spill / restore
+ pairs into register copies.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+More LSR enhancements possible:
+
+1. Teach LSR about pre- and post- indexed ops to allow iv increment be merged
+ in a load / store.
+2. Allow iv reuse even when a type conversion is required. For example, i8
+ and i32 load / store addressing modes are identical.
+

+
+Should compile to use SMLAL (Signed Multiply Accumulate Long) which multiplies
+two signed 32-bit values to produce a 64-bit value, and accumulates this with
+a 64-bit value.
