[1/4] rs6000: build constant via li;rotldi

Hi,

This patch checks if a constant is possible to be rotated to/from a positive
or negative value from "li". If so, we could use "li;rotldi" to build it.

Bootstrap and regtest pass on ppc64{,le}.
Is this ok for trunk?

BR,
Jeff (Jiufu)

gcc/ChangeLog:

	* config/rs6000/rs6000.cc (can_be_rotated_to_positive_li): New function.
	(can_be_rotated_to_negative_li): New function.
	(can_be_built_by_li_and_rotldi): New function.
	(rs6000_emit_set_long_const): Call can_be_built_by_li_and_rotldi.

gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog:

	* gcc.target/powerpc/const-build.c: New test.

I look at this feature and it's good, but I don't fully understand the
benefit of this level of abstraction.  Ideally all of the above functions
would be inlined.  They aren't reused.

Why not

/* Check if C or ~C can be rotated to a positive or negative value
    which 'li' instruction is able to load.  */
if (can_be_rotated_to_lowbits (c, 15, &n)
    || can_be_rotated_to_lowbits (~c, 15, &n))
...

This is a style of software engineering, but it seems overkill to me when
the function is a single line that tail calls another function.  Am I
missing something?

The rest of this patch looks good.

Thanks, David

Thanks a lot for your review!!

Your suggestions could also achieve my goal of using a new function:
Using "can_be_rotated_to_positive_li" is just trying to get a
straightforward name.  Like yours, the code's comments would also
make it easy to understand.

I recognize that you are trying to be consistent with the other
functions that you add in later patches, but it feels like overkill in
abstraction to me.  Or maybe combine postive_li and negative_li into a
single function so that the abstraction serves a purpose other than a
tail call and creating an alias for a specific invocation of
can_be_rotated_to_lowbits.

Thanks, David
