Summary

Icelake, Rocketlake and Tigerlake targets currently use the SkylakeServer scheduler model, despite being a later microarchitecture, leading to both reported bugs (PR48110) and discrepancies when comparing llvm-mca reports to other profiling tools (OSACA, uops, uica, etc.). And tbh I'm getting sick of llvm-mca getting blamed for what are backend scheduler model issues :-(

This patch doesn't attempt to fix any of these discrepancies - there should be no changes in codegen - its a setup patch that copies the skx model, renames all the resources, adds the additional ports (but doesn't reference them yet) and updates the llvm-exegesis pfm counter mappings (based off https://sourceforge.net/p/perfmon2/libpfm4/ci/master/tree/lib/events/intel_icl_events.h).

This should make it trivial for anyone with hardware access to use llvm-exegesis reports to iteratively improve the model (my attempts to get hold of a cheap tiger lake box haven't been fruitful yet....).

I haven't included any llvm-mca resource tests, but they are trivial to add once this patch is in place, but I can pre-commit the existing skylake tests if people think its useful (the diff should entirely be the resource renames).

Nit: Perhaps this should be "IceLake" not "Icelake" (cf. Intel codenames: "Skylake" is one word but "Ice Lake" is two).

Icelake -> Ice Lake

This seems reasonable to me.
