Re: PATCH: back end initialization reorganization

I guess I think it would be OK to put this patch in without getting
everything else working, just so that it's not a moving target, but
that's arguable, and I have an obvious bias.  So, what I'm hoping is
that Ian will say that the patch is OK, and indicate whether he thinks
we should put it in now, or wait until you have (a) the cfun stuff, and
(b) the MIPS bits all ready to go as well.

Assuming that there are no objections within 72 hours, I think you
should go ahead and check in the bits that you have working thus far.
Not sure I follow.  I thought Sandra was reworking the patch to
include "the cfun stuff" first.  What is this an approval for?

The reorganization and refactorization of the initialization code itself so that the last thing the initialization sequence does is call a backend_init function (sp?). That last function is the think we intend to call multiple times -- but, until the cfun stuff is worked out, that won't actually happen, of course.

I've now committed the patch with the reorganization of the initialization code. I'll post the remaining two bits of patch for review as soon as I have a chance to produce the ChangeLogs for them.

	gcc/
	Separate target-specific initialization from general
	back-end initialization.

	* toplev.c (init_alignments): New, split out from...
	(process_options): ...here.
	(backend_init_target):  New, split out from...
	(backend_init): ...here.
	(lang_dependent_init_target):  New, split out from...
	(lang_dependent_init): ...here.
	(target_reinit): New.
	* toplev.h (target_reinit): Declare.
	* expr.c (init_expr_target): Renamed from init_expr_once, since it
	now can be called more than once.  Update comments.
	* expr.h (init_expr_target): Likewise.
	* alias.c (init_alias_target): Renamed from init_alias_once, since it
	now can be called more than once.  Explicitly zero
	static_reg_base_value.
	* emit-rtl.c (init_emit_regs): New, split out from...
	(init_emit_once): Here.
	* regclass.c (initial_fixed_regs, initial_call_used_regs): Make
	non-const, so that changes from command-line arguments can overwrite
	values provided by the static initializers.
	(initial_call_really_used_regs): New, used similarly to the above.
	(initial_reg_names): Likewise.
	(last_mode_for_init_move_cost): Promoted function-local static to
	file-scope static to make it accessible outside init_move_cost.
	(init_reg_sets): Do not initialize fixed_regs and call_used_regs yet.
	Do not initialize inv_reg_alloc_order yet, either.  Do initialize
	reg_names since it is needed for parsing command-line options.
	(init_move_cost): Use last_mode_for_init_move_cost instead of
	function-local static.
	(init_reg_sets_1): Initialize fixed_regs, call_used_regs, and
	call_really_used_regs now.  Reinitialize reg_names.  Also
	initialize inv_reg_alloc_order.  Zero reg_class_subunion and
	reg_class_superunion.  Clear losing_caller_save_reg_set.
	Preserve global registers if called more than once.  Reset
	move cost, may_move_in_cost, may_move_out_cost, and
	last_mode_for_init_move_cost.
	(init_reg_modes_target): Renamed from init_reg_modes_once, since it
	can now be invoked more than once.  Update comments.
	(init_regs): Update comments.
	(fix_register): Update initial_fixed_regs, initial_call_used_regs,
	and initial_call_really_used_regs, instead of the non-initial 
        variables.  This allows us to save the command-line register settings
	after target reinitialization.
	(init_reg_autoinc): Zero forbidden_inc_dec_classes.
	* rtl.h (init_emit_regs): Declare.
	(init_reg_modes_target, init_alias_target): Renamed as described
	above.
	* reload1.c (init_reload): Update comments.
	* optabs.c (init_optabs): Likewise.
	* cfgloopanal.c (init_set_costs): Explicitly zero target_avail_regs.
