This adds initial support for PPC32 ELF PIC (Position Independent Code; the
-fPIC variety), thus rectifying a long-standing deficiency in the PowerPC
backend.

llvm-svn: 213427
During an indirect function call sequence on the 64-bit SVR4 ABI,
generate code must load and then restore the TOC register.
This does not use a regular LOAD instruction since the TOC
register r2 is marked as reserved. Instead, the are two
special instruction patterns:
let RST = 2, DS = 2 in
def LDinto_toc: DSForm_1a<58, 0, (outs), (ins g8rc:$reg),
"ld 2, 8($reg)", IIC_LdStLD,
[(PPCload_toc i64:$reg)]>, isPPC64;
let RST = 2, DS = 10, RA = 1 in
def LDtoc_restore : DSForm_1a<58, 0, (outs), (ins),
"ld 2, 40(1)", IIC_LdStLD,
[(PPCtoc_restore)]>, isPPC64;
Note that these not only restrict the destination of the
load to r2, but they also restrict the *source* of the
load to particular address combinations. The latter is
a problem when we want to support the ELFv2 ABI, since
there the TOC save slot is no longer at 40(1).
This patch replaces those two instructions with a single
instruction pattern that only hard-codes r2 as destination,
but supports generic addresses as source. This will allow
supporting the ELFv2 ABI, and also helps generate more
efficient code for calls to absolute addresses (allowing
simplification of the ppc64-calls.ll test case).

I'm under the impression that we used to infer the isCommutable flag from the
instruction-associated pattern. Regardless, we don't seem to do this (at least
by default) any more. I've gone through all of our instruction definitions, and
marked as commutative all of those that should be trivial to commute (by
exchanging the first two operands). There has been special code for the RL*
instructions, and that's not changed.
Before this change, we had the following commutative instructions:

This is a by-inspection change, and I'm not sure how to write a reliable test
case. I would like advice on this, however.
llvm-svn: 204609
VSX is an ISA extension supported on the POWER7 and later cores that enhances
floating-point vector and scalar capabilities. Among other things, this adds
<2 x double> support and generally helps to reduce register pressure.
The interesting part of this ISA feature is the register configuration: there
are 64 new 128-bit vector registers, the 32 of which are super-registers of the
existing 32 scalar floating-point registers, and the second 32 of which overlap
with the 32 Altivec vector registers. This makes things like vector insertion
and extraction tricky: this can be free but only if we force a restriction to
the right register subclass when needed. A new "minipass" PPCVSXCopy takes care
of this (although it could do a more-optimal job of it; see the comment about
unnecessary copies below).
Please note that, currently, VSX is not enabled by default when targeting
anything because it is not yet ready for that. The assembler and disassembler
are fully implemented and tested. However:
- CodeGen support causes miscompiles; test-suite runtime failures:
MultiSource/Benchmarks/FreeBench/distray/distray
MultiSource/Benchmarks/McCat/08-main/main
MultiSource/Benchmarks/Olden/voronoi/voronoi
MultiSource/Benchmarks/mafft/pairlocalalign
MultiSource/Benchmarks/tramp3d-v4/tramp3d-v4
SingleSource/Benchmarks/CoyoteBench/almabench
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc/matmul_f64_4x4
- The lowering currently falls back to using Altivec instructions far more
than it should. Worse, there are some things that are scalarized through the
stack that shouldn't be.
- A lot of unnecessary copies make it past the optimizers, and this needs to
be fixed.
- Many more regression tests are needed.
Normally, I'd fix these things prior to committing, but there are some
students and other contributors who would like to work this, and so it makes
sense to move this development process upstream where it can be subject to the
regular code-review procedures.

This change enables tracking i1 values in the PowerPC backend using the
condition register bits. These bits can be treated on PowerPC as separate
registers; individual bit operations (and, or, xor, etc.) are supported.
Tracking booleans in CR bits has several advantages:
- Reduction in register pressure (because we no longer need GPRs to store
boolean values).
- Logical operations on booleans can be handled more efficiently; we used to
have to move all results from comparisons into GPRs, perform promoted
logical operations in GPRs, and then move the result back into condition
register bits to be used by conditional branches. This can be very
inefficient, because the throughput of these CR <-> GPR moves have high
latency and low throughput (especially when other associated instructions
are accounted for).
- On the POWER7 and similar cores, we can increase total throughput by using
the CR bits. CR bit operations have a dedicated functional unit.
Most of this is more-or-less mechanical: Adjustments were needed in the
calling-convention code, support was added for spilling/restoring individual
condition-register bits, and conditional branch instruction definitions taking
specific CR bits were added (plus patterns and code for generating bit-level
operations).
This is enabled by default when running at -O2 and higher. For -O0 and -O1,
where the ability to debug is more important, this feature is disabled by
default. Individual CR bits do not have assigned DWARF register numbers,
and storing values in CR bits makes them invisible to the debugger.
It is critical, however, that we don't move i1 values that have been promoted
to larger values (such as those passed as function arguments) into bit
registers only to quickly turn around and move the values back into GPRs (such
as happens when values are returned by functions). A pair of target-specific
DAG combines are added to remove the trunc/extends in:
trunc(binary-ops(binary-ops(zext(x), zext(y)), ...)
and:
zext(binary-ops(binary-ops(trunc(x), trunc(y)), ...)
In short, we only want to use CR bits where some of the i1 values come from
comparisons or are used by conditional branches or selects. To put it another
way, if we can do the entire i1 computation in GPRs, then we probably should
(on the POWER7, the GPR-operation throughput is higher, and for all cores, the
CR <-> GPR moves are expensive).

My understanding (from reading just the llvm code) is that
* most ppc cpus have a "sync n" instruction and an msync alias that is "sync 0".
* "book e" cpus instead have a msync instruction and not the more
general "sync n"
This patch reflects that in the .td files, allowing a single codepath for
asm ond obj streamer and incidentelly fixes a crash when EmitRawText was
called on a obj streamer.

Several of the 64-bit fixed-point instructions with immediate operands were
using the 32-bit (i32) operand nodes instead of the corresponding 64-bit (i64)
operand definitions (u16imm instead of u16imm64, for example).
This error has had no effect so far, but would have caused type-checking
violations with an upcoming change.
llvm-svn: 198356
The tests for the disassembler were adapted from the encoder tests, and for the
most part, the output from the disassembler matches that encoder-test inputs.
There are some places where more-informative mnemonics could be produced
(notably for the branch instructions), and those cases are noted in the tests
with FIXMEs.
Future work includes:
- Generating more-informative mnemonics when possible (this may also be done
in the printer).
- Remove the dependence on positional "numbered" operand-to-variable mapping
(for both encoding and decoding).
- Internally using 64-bit instruction variants in 64-bit mode (if this turns
out to matter).
llvm-svn: 197693
The instruction definitions in the PPC backend have a number of variants
defined for the same instruction to represent differences between 64-bit and
32-bit semantics. In order to generate a disassembler for the PPC backend, we
need to mark all but one of these as CodeGen only.
No functionality change intended; this is prep work for PPC disassembly
support.
llvm-svn: 197535
Aside from a few minor latency corrections, the major change here is a new
hazard recognizer which focuses on better dispatch-group formation on the
POWER7. As with the PPC970's hazard recognizer, the most important thing it
does is avoid load-after-store hazards within the same dispatch group. It uses
the POWER7's special dispatch-group-terminating nop instruction (instead of
inserting multiple regular nop instructions). This new hazard recognizer makes
use of the scheduling dependency graph itself, built using AA information, to
robustly detect the possibility of load-after-store hazards.
significant test-suite performance changes (the error bars are 99.5% confidence
intervals based on 5 test-suite runs both with and without the change --
speedups are negative):

In preparation for adding scheduling definitions for the POWER7, split some PPC
itinerary classes so that the P7's latencies and hazards can be better
described. For the most part, this means differentiating indexed from non-index
pre-increment loads and stores. Also, differentiate single from
double-precision sqrt.
No functionality change intended (except for a more-specific latency for
single-precision sqrt on the A2).
llvm-svn: 195980
This adds the IIC_ prefix to the instruction itinerary class names, giving the
PPC backend a naming convention for itinerary classes that is more consistent
with that used by the X86 and ARM backends.
Instruction scheduling in the PPC backend needs a bunch of cleanup and
improvement (especially for the ooo cores). This is just a preliminary step.
No functionality change intended.
llvm-svn: 195890
Use the new instruction deprecation feature to mark mftb (now replaced with
mfspr) and dst (along with the other Altivec cache control instructions) as
deprecated when targeting cores supporting at least ISA v2.03.
llvm-svn: 190605
Aggressive anti-dependency breaking is enabled by default for all PPC cores.
This provides a general speedup on the P7 and other platforms (among other
factors, the instruction group formation for the non-embedded PPC cores is done
during post-RA scheduling). In order to do this safely, the incompatibility
between uses of the MFOCRF instruction and anti-dependency breaking are
resolved by marking MFOCRF with hasExtraSrcRegAllocReq. As noted in the removed
FIXME, the problem was that MFOCRF's output is sensitive to the identify of the
source register, and always paired with a shift to undo this effect. Because
anti-dependency breaking is unaware of this hidden dependency of the shift
amount on the source register of the MFOCRF instruction, changing that register
must be inhibited.
Two test cases were adjusted: The SjLj test was made more insensitive to
register choices and scheduling; the saveCR test disabled anti-dependency
breaking because part of what it is testing is proper register reuse.
llvm-svn: 190587
Modern PPC cores support a floating-point copysign instruction, and we can use
this to lower the FCOPYSIGN node (which is created from calls to the libm
copysign function). A couple of extra patterns are necessary because the
operand types of FCOPYSIGN need not agree.
llvm-svn: 188653
Making use of the recently-added ISD::FROUND, which allows for custom lowering
of round(), the PPC backend will now map frin to round(). Previously, we had
been using frin to lower nearbyint() (and rint() via some custom lowering to
handle the extra fenv flags requirements), but only in fast-math mode because
frin does not tie-to-even. Several users had complained about this behavior,
and this new mapping of frin to round is certainly more appropriate (and does
not require fast-math mode).
In effect, this reverts r178362 (and part of r178337, replacing the nearbyint
mapping with the round mapping).
llvm-svn: 187960
Because the builtin longjmp implementation uses a CTR-based indirect jump, when
the control flow arrives at the builtin setjmp call, the CTR register has
necessarily been clobbered. Correspondingly, this adds CTR to the list of
implicit definitions of the builtin setjmp pseudo instruction.
We don't need to add CTR to the implicit definitions of builtin longjmp
because, even though it does clobber the CTR register, the control flow cannot
return to inside the loop unless there is also a builtin setjmp call.
llvm-svn: 186488
This adds support for the old-style time base instructions;
while new programs are supposed to use mfspr, the mftb instructions
are still supported and in use by existing assembler files.
llvm-svn: 185829
This adds support for the basic mnemoics (with the L operand) for the
fixed-point compare instructions. These are defined as aliases for the
already existing CMPW/CMPD patterns, depending on the value of L.
This requires use of InstAlias patterns with immediate literal operands.
To make this work, we need two further changes:
- define a RegisterPrefix, because otherwise literals 0 and 1 would
be parsed as literal register names
- provide a PPCAsmParser::validateTargetOperandClass routine to
recognize immediate literals (like ARM does)
llvm-svn: 185826
This adds support for specifying condition registers and
condition register fields via expressions using the symbols
defined by the PowerISA, like "4*cr2+eq".
