This checkin provides the standard set of atomic operations and a memory barrier in the ispc standard library. Both signed and unsigned 32- and 64-bit integer types are supported.
When creating function Symbols for functions that were defined in LLVM bitcode for the standard library, if any of the function parameters are integer types, create two ispc-side Symbols: one where the integer types are all signed and the other where they are all unsigned. This allows us to provide, for example, both store_to_int16(reference int a[], uniform int offset, int val) as well as store_to_int16(reference unsigned int a[], uniform int offset, unsigned int val). functions.
Added some additional tests to exercise the new variants of these.
Also fixed some cases where the __{load,store}_int{8,16} builtins would read from/write to memory even if the mask was all off (which could cause crashes in some cases.)
were expecting vector-width-aligned pointers where in point of fact,
there's no guarantee that they would have been in general.
Removed the aligned memory allocation routines from some of the examples;
they're no longer needed.
No perf. difference on Core2/Core i5 CPUs; older CPUs may see some
regressions.
Still need to update the documentation for this change and finish reviewing
alignment issues in Load/Store instructions generated by .cpp files.
