This replaces most argument uses with loads, but for
now not all.
The code in SelectionDAG for calling convention lowering
is actively harmful for amdgpu_kernel. It attempts to
split the argument types into register legal types, which
results in low quality code for arbitary types. Since
all kernel arguments are passed in memory, we just want the
raw types.
I've tried a couple of methods of mitigating this in SelectionDAG,
but it's easier to just bypass this problem alltogether. It's
possible to hack around the problem in the initial lowering,
but the real problem is the DAG then expects to be able to use
CopyToReg/CopyFromReg for uses of the arguments outside the block.
Exposing the argument loads in the IR also has the advantage
that the LoadStoreVectorizer can merge them.
I'm not sure the best approach to dealing with the IR
argument list is. The patch as-is just leaves the IR arguments
in place, so all the existing code will still compute the same
kernarg size and pointlessly lowers the arguments.
Arguably the frontend should emit kernels with an empty argument
list in the first place. Alternatively a dummy array could be
inserted as a single argument just to reserve space.
This does have some disadvantages. Local pointer kernel arguments can
no longer have AssertZext placed on them as the equivalent !range
metadata is not valid on pointer typed loads. This is mostly bad
for SI which needs to know about the known bits in order to use the
DS instruction offset, so in this case this is not done.
More importantly, this skips noalias arguments since this pass
does not yet convert this to the equivalent !alias.scope and !noalias
metadata. Producing this metadata correctly seems to be tricky,
although this logically is the same as inlining into a function which
doesn't exist. Additionally, exposing these loads to the vectorizer
may result in degraded aliasing information if a pointer load is
merged with another argument load.
I'm also not entirely sure this is preserving the current clover
ABI, although I would greatly prefer if it would stop widening
arguments and match the HSA ABI. As-is I think it is extending
< 4-byte arguments to 4-bytes but doesn't align them to 4-bytes.

This has two main components. First, widen
widen short constant loads in DAG when they have
the correct alignment. This is already done a bit in
AMDGPUCodeGenPrepare, since that has access to
DivergenceAnalysis. This can't help kernarg loads
created in the DAG. Start to use DAG divergence analysis
to help this case.
The second part is to avoid kernel argument lowering
breaking the alignment of short vector elements because
calling convention lowering wants to split everything
into legal register types.
When loading a split type, load the nearest 4-byte aligned
segment and shift to get the desired bits. This extra
load of the earlier argument piece ends up merging,
and the bit extract hopefully folds out.
There are a number of improvements and regressions with
this, but I think as-is this is a better compromise between
several of the worst parts of SelectionDAG.
Particularly when i16 is legal, this produces worse code
for i8 and i16 element vector kernel arguments. This is
partially due to the very weak load merging the DAG does.
It only looks for fairly specific combines between pairs
of loads which no longer appear. In particular this
causes v4i16 loads to be split into 2 components when
previously the two halves were merged.
Worse, because of the newly introduced shifts, there
is a lot more unnecessary vector packing and unpacking code
emitted. At least some of this is due to reporting
false for isTypeDesirableForOp for i16 as a workaround for
the lack of divergence information in the DAG. The cases
where this happens it doesn't actually matter, but the
relevant code in SimplifyDemandedBits doens't have the context
to know to ignore this.
The use of the scalar cache is probably more important
than the mess of mostly scalar instructions doing this packing
and unpacking. Future work can fix this, possibly by making better
use of the new DAG divergence information for controlling promotion
decisions, or adding another version of shift + trunc + shift
combines that doesn't only know about the used types.

Currently the default C calling convention functions are treated
the same as compute kernels. Make this explicit so the default
calling convention can be changed to a non-kernel.
Converted with perl -pi -e 's/define void/define amdgpu_kernel void/'
on the relevant test directories (and undoing in one place that actually
wanted a non-kernel).

Lay out trellis-shaped CFGs optimally.
A trellis of the shape below:
A B
|\ /|
| \ / |
| X |
| / \ |
|/ \|
C D
would be laid out A; B->C ; D by the current layout algorithm. Now we identify
trellises and lay them out either A->C; B->D or A->D; B->C. This scales with an
increasing number of predecessors. A trellis is a a group of 2 or more
predecessor blocks that all have the same successors.
because of this we can tail duplicate to extend existing trellises.
As an example consider the following CFG:
B D F H
/ \ / \ / \ / \
A---C---E---G---Ret
Where A,C,E,G are all small (Currently 2 instructions).
The CFG preserving layout is then A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,Ret.
The current code will copy C into B, E into D and G into F and yield the layout
A,C,B(C),E,D(E),F(G),G,H,ret
define void @straight_test(i32 %tag) {
entry:
br label %test1
test1: ; A
%tagbit1 = and i32 %tag, 1
%tagbit1eq0 = icmp eq i32 %tagbit1, 0
br i1 %tagbit1eq0, label %test2, label %optional1
optional1: ; B
call void @a()
br label %test2
test2: ; C
%tagbit2 = and i32 %tag, 2
%tagbit2eq0 = icmp eq i32 %tagbit2, 0
br i1 %tagbit2eq0, label %test3, label %optional2
optional2: ; D
call void @b()
br label %test3

%tagbit4eq0 = icmp eq i32 %tagbit4, 0
br i1 %tagbit4eq0, label %exit, label %optional4
optional4: ; H
call void @d()
br label %exit
exit:

The tail-duplication has produced some benefit, but it has also produced a
trellis which is not laid out optimally. With this patch, we improve the layouts
of such trellises, and decrease the cost calculation for tail-duplication
accordingly.
This patch produces the layout A,C,E,G,B,D,F,H,Ret. This layout does have
back edges, which is a negative, but it has a bigger compensating
positive, which is that it handles the case where there are long strings
of skipped blocks much better than the original layout. Both layouts
handle runs of executed blocks equally well. Branch prediction also
improves if there is any correlation between subsequent optional blocks.
Here is the resulting concrete layout:
straight_test: # @straight_test
; BB#0: # %entry ; A (merged with test1)
mr 30, 3
andi. 3, 30, 1
bc 12, 1, .LBB0_4

This switches to the workaround that HSA defaults to
for the mesa path.
This should be applied to the 4.0 branch.
Patch by Vedran Miletić <vedran@miletic.net>
llvm-svn: 292982
The structured CFG is just an aid to inserting exec
mask modification instructions, once that is done
we don't really need it anymore. We also
do not analyze blocks with terminators that
modify exec, so this should only be impacting
true branches.
llvm-svn: 288744
nThis avoids the nasty problems caused by using
memory instructions that read the exec mask while
spilling / restoring registers used for control flow
masking, but only for VI when these were added.
This always uses the scalar stores when enabled currently,
but it may be better to still try to spill to a VGPR
and use this on the fallback memory path.
The cache also needs to be flushed before wave termination
if a scalar store is used.
llvm-svn: 286766
For some reason there are both of these available, except
for scalar 64-bit compares which only has u64. I'm not sure
why there are both (I'm guessing it's for the one bit inputs we
don't use), but for consistency always using the
unsigned one.
llvm-svn: 282832
Summary:
There are cases where uniform branch conditions are computed in VGPRs, and
we didn't correctly mark those as WQM.
The stray change in basic-branch.ll is because invoking the LiveIntervals
analysis leads to the detection of a dead register that would otherwise not
be seen at -O0.
This is a candidate for the 3.9 branch, as it fixes a possible hang.
