[BOLT] Introduce helpers to match `MCInst`s one at a time (NFC) (#138883)

Introduce a low-level instruction matching DSL to capture and/or match
the operands of MCInst, single instruction at a time. Unlike the
existing `MCPlusBuilder::MCInstMatcher` machinery, this DSL is intended
for the use cases when the precise control over the instruction order is
required. For example, when validating PtrAuth hardening, all registers
are usually considered unsafe after a function call, even though
callee-saved registers should preserve their old
values _under normal operation_.

Usage example:

    // Bring the short names into the local scope:
    using namespace LowLevelInstMatcherDSL;
    // Declare the registers to capture:
    Reg Xn, Xm;
    // Capture the 0th and 1st operands, match the 2nd operand against the
    // just captured Xm register, match the 3rd operand against literal 0:
    if (!matchInst(MaybeAdd, AArch64::ADDXrs, Xm, Xn, Xm, Imm(0))
      return AArch64::NoRegister;
    // Match the 0th operand against Xm:
    if (!matchInst(MaybeBr, AArch64::BR, Xm))
      return AArch64::NoRegister;
    // Manually check that Xm and Xn did not match the same register:
    if (Xm.get() == Xn.get())
      return AArch64::NoRegister;
    // Return the matched register:
    return Xm.get();

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.

For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

Getting in touch

Join the LLVM Discourse forums, Discord chat, LLVM Office Hours or Regular sync-ups.

The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
