    [turbofan] Masking/poisoning in codegen (optimized code, arm64) · 800daded
    Mike Stanton authored
    This introduces masking of loads with speculation bit during code generation.
    At the moment, this is done only under the
    --branch-load-poisoning flag, and this CL enlarges the set of supported
    platforms from {x64, arm} to {x64, arm, arm64}.
    
    Overview of changes:
    - new register configuration configuration with one register reserved for
      the speculation poison/mask (kSpeculationPoisonRegister).
    - in codegen, we introduce an update to the poison register at the starts
      of all successors of branches (and deopts) that are marked as safety
      branches (deopts).
    - in memory optimizer, we lower all field and element loads to PoisonedLoads.
    - poisoned loads are then masked in codegen with the poison register.
      * only integer loads are masked at the moment.
