stdint.h should use the target's types, cleanup the targets

Summary

We would not choose the proper type for [u]intptr_t if we were
targeting -ffreestanding mode because we were substituting an equally
sized type, not the exact type.

An examination of Basic/Targets.cpp showed an irregular smattering of
target choices where we would get things wrong. This code has been
reoriented around Operating Systems since they are largely uniform
outside of ILP32-LLP64 differences.

This has found a few notable bugs:

  • MIPS and ARM would have their size_t as int and their ptrdiff_t as long
  • aarch64 on Linux had it's 64-bit type set as 'long long' instead of as long

  • Remove unused targets, fixup Minix and kFreeBSD

I've looked over the bits I know and have access to, and it looks mostly fine to me. I don't know anything about the BSDs or anything though.

lib/Sema/SemaType.cpp
4792–4793

I think these two should probably be removed now that vectors are Long/ULong.

I tried that and got bit by 32-bit ARM, they use long long for int64_t.

Ah, of course! I forgot we shared that bit of code. Sorry about that.

As to MIPS target the patch looks good to me.

The ARM changes look good to me.

There are is no test of aarch64 to show that "aarch64 on Linux had it's 64-bit type set as 'long long' instead of as long" has changed.

  • Remove unused targets, fixup Minix and kFreeBSD
  • Do a better job of matching GCC for OS-free targets
  • Fix ARM for NetBSD

  • Add a test checking that int64_t is a signed long instead of a signed long long

Is it a problem that __INTPTR_TYPE__ and __INTPTR_WIDTH__ have been lost for some targets? (ARM, MIPS*, PPC*, ...)

INTPTR_TYPE and INTPTR_WIDTH are only defined by operating system targets in GCC's config files, I follow that convention.

Sorry, I didn't realize I was a reviewer and hence need to respond. I guess I'm here because I tinkered with the PS3 stuff, and being with Sony, perhaps because of the deletion of the PSP and SPU stuff. I don't even know if it was done by Sony folks (the log says evocallaghan for the PSP part), or why it needs to be deleted, but I have no problem with it. Let me ask around here a bit first to see if anyone here knows about it.

-John

Sony hasn't used the PSP or SPU targets that were built by others. However, the PS3PPU target is in active use.

Otherwise, I can't meaningfully review this patch because the are just too many changes combined in this patch.

@alexr I put all of the changes in one patch because splitting them into smaller patches risks inconsistency in the tree. Do you have a suggestion on how you would like this patch to look?

What is the state of this revision? Maybe abandon or close it.

Sorry, I don't feel qualified to review it.

I've some errors in this area recently, so does this change still apply?
