For model 6 CPUs, we have a fallback detection method based on
available features. That mechanism should be enough to detect
these early family 6 CPUs as they only differ in the features
used by the detection anyway.
Rather than converting type/subtype into strings, just directly
select the string as part of family/model decoding. This avoids
the need for creating fake Type/SubTypes for CPUs not supported
by compiler-rtl. I've left the Type/SubType in place where it matches
compiler-rt so that the code can be diffed, but the Type/SubType
is no longer used by Host.cpp.
compiler-rt was already updated to select strings that aren't used
so the code will look similar.

This time without the change to make operator| use operator&=.
That seems to be the source of the gcc 5.3 miscompile.
Original commit message:
These represent the same thing but 64BIT only showed up from
getHostCPUFeatures providing a list of featuers to clang. While
EM64T showed up from getting the features for a named CPU.
EM64T didn't have a string specifically so it would not be passed
up to clang when getting features for a named CPU. While 64bit
needed a name since that's how it is index.
Merge them by filtering 64bit out before sending features to clang
for named CPUs.
It gets miscompiled with GCC 5.3, causing Clang to crash with
"error: unknown target CPU 'x86-64'"
See the llvm-commits thread for reproduction steps.
This reverts commit 51b0da731af75c68dd521e04cc576d5a611b1612.
This seems to be leftover copied from an older implementation
of getHostCPUName where we needed this to check the name of
CPU vendor. We don't check the CPU vendor at all in
getHostCPUFeatures so this union and the variable are unneeded.

Brand index was a feature some Pentium III and Pentium 4 CPUs.
It provided an index into a software lookup table to provide a
brand name for the CPU. This is separate from the family/model.
It's unclear to me why this index being non-zero was used to
block checking family/model. I think the effect of this is that
-march=native was not working correctly on the CPUs that have a
non-zero brand index. They are all about 20 years old so this
probably hasn't affected many users.
We have three 32 bit variables containing feature bits. But our
enum is a flat 96 bit space. So we need to pick which of the
variables to use based on the bit value. We used to do this
manually by mentioning the correct variable and subtracting an
offset from the enum. But this is error prone.
The exact same #if is already inside isCpuIdSupported and causes
it to return true. The definition of isCpuIdSupported isn't
conditional so we should be able just rely on its body doing
the right thing.
Summary:
This patch simply adds support for the new CPU in anticipation of
Power10. There isn't really any functionality added so there are no
associated test cases at this time.

This adds the family/model returned by CPUID for some Intel
Comet Lake CPUs. Instruction set and tuning wise these are

These are not in the Intel SDM yet, but these should be correct.

The goal of this patch is to maximize CPU utilization on multi-socket or high core count systems, so that parallel computations such as LLD/ThinLTO can use all hardware threads in the system. Before this patch, on Windows, a maximum of 64 hardware threads could be used at most, in some cases dispatched only on one CPU socket.
== Background ==
Windows doesn't have a flat cpu_set_t like Linux. Instead, it projects hardware CPUs (or NUMA nodes) to applications through a concept of "processor groups". A "processor" is the smallest unit of execution on a CPU, that is, an hyper-thread if SMT is active; a core otherwise. There's a limit of 32-bit processors on older 32-bit versions of Windows, which later was raised to 64-processors with 64-bit versions of Windows. This limit comes from the affinity mask, which historically is represented by the sizeof(void*). Consequently, the concept of "processor groups" was introduced for dealing with systems with more than 64 hyper-threads.
By default, the Windows OS assigns only one "processor group" to each starting application, in a round-robin manner. If the application wants to use more processors, it needs to programmatically enable it, by assigning threads to other "processor groups". This also means that affinity cannot cross "processor group" boundaries; one can only specify a "preferred" group on start-up, but the application is free to allocate more groups if it wants to.
This creates a peculiar situation, where newer CPUs like the AMD EPYC 7702P (64-cores, 128-hyperthreads) are projected by the OS as two (2) "processor groups". This means that by default, an application can only use half of the cores. This situation could only get worse in the years to come, as dies with more cores will appear on the market.
== The problem ==
The heavyweight_hardware_concurrency() API was introduced so that only *one hardware thread per core* was used. Once that API returns, that original intention is lost, only the number of threads is retained. Consider a situation, on Windows, where the system has 2 CPU sockets, 18 cores each, each core having 2 hyper-threads, for a total of 72 hyper-threads. Both heavyweight_hardware_concurrency() and hardware_concurrency() currently return 36, because on Windows they are simply wrappers over std:🧵:hardware_concurrency() -- which can only return processors from the current "processor group".
== The changes in this patch ==
To solve this situation, we capture (and retain) the initial intention until the point of usage, through a new ThreadPoolStrategy class. The number of threads to use is deferred as late as possible, until the moment where the std::threads are created (ThreadPool in the case of ThinLTO).
When using hardware_concurrency(), setting ThreadCount to 0 now means to use all the possible hardware CPU (SMT) threads. Providing a ThreadCount above to the maximum number of threads will have no effect, the maximum will be used instead.
The heavyweight_hardware_concurrency() is similar to hardware_concurrency(), except that only one thread per hardware *core* will be used.
When LLVM_ENABLE_THREADS is OFF, the threading APIs will always return 1, to ensure any caller loops will be exercised at least once.

The previous patch as listed above added the future CPU in clang. This patch
adds the future CPU in the PowerPC backend. At this point the patch simply
assumes that a future CPU will have the same characteristics as pwr9. Those
characteristics may change with later patches.

Darwin lazily saves the AVX512 context on first use [1]: instead of checking
that it already does to figure out if the OS supports AVX512, trust that
the kernel will do the right thing and always assume the context save
support is available.

The recently announced IBM z15 processor implements the architecture
already supported as "arch13" in LLVM. This patch adds support for
"z15" as an alternate architecture name for arch13.
The patch also uses z15 in a number of places where we used arch13
as long as the official name was not yet announced.

-Deprecate -mmpx and -mno-mpx command line options
-Remove CPUID detection of mpx for -march=native
-Remove MPX from all CPUs
-Remove MPX preprocessor define
I've left the "mpx" string in the backend so we don't fail on old IR, but its not connected to anything.
gcc has also deprecated these command line options. https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=GCC-Patch-To-Drop-MPX
