This is done by pushing physical register definitions close to their
use, which happens to handle flag definitions if they're not glued to
the branch. This seems to be generally a good thing though, so I
didn't need to add a target hook yet.
The primary motivation is to generate code closer to what people
expect and rule out missed opportunity from enabling macro-op
fusion. As a side benefit, we get several 2-5% gains on x86
benchmarks. There is one regression:
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout/lists slows down be -10%. But this is
an independent scheduler bug that will be tracked separately.
See rdar://problem/9283108.
Incidentally, pre-RA scheduling is only half the solution. Fixing the
later passes is tracked by:
<rdar://problem/8932804> [pre-RA-sched] on x86, attempt to schedule CMP/TEST adjacent with condition jump
Fixes:
<rdar://problem/9262453> Scheduler unnecessary break of cmp/jump fusion

ignored. There was a test to catch this, but it was just blindly updated in
a large change. This fixes another part of <rdar://problem/9275290>.

Now that we have a first-class way to represent unaligned loads, the unaligned
load intrinsics are superfluous.

There can be multiple defs for a single virtual register when they are defining
sub-registers.
The missing <dead> flag was stopping the inline spiller from eliminating dead
code after rematerialization.
llvm-svn: 128888
When a virtual register has a single value that is defined as a copy of a
reserved register, permit that copy to be joined. These virtual register are
usually copies of the stack pointer:
%vreg75<def> = COPY %ESP; GR32:%vreg75
MOV32mr %vreg75, 1, %noreg, 0, %noreg, %vreg74<kill>
MOV32mi %vreg75, 1, %noreg, 8, %noreg, 0
MOV32mi %vreg75<kill>, 1, %noreg, 4, %noreg, 0
CALLpcrel32 ...
Coalescing these virtual registers early decreases register pressure.
Previously, they were coalesced by RALinScan::attemptTrivialCoalescing after
register allocation was completed.
The lower register pressure causes the mcinst-lowering-cmp0.ll test case to fail
because it depends on linear scan spilling a particular register.
I am deleting 2008-08-05-SpillerBug.ll because it is counting the number of
instructions emitted, and its revision history shows the 'correct' count being
edited many times.
llvm-svn: 128845
This way, shrinkToUses() will ignore the instruction that is about to be
deleted, and we avoid leaving invalid live ranges that SplitKit doesn't like.
Fix a misunderstanding in MachineVerifier about <def,undef> operands. The
<undef> flag is valid on def operands where it has the same meaning as <undef>
on a use operand. It only applies to sub-register defines which also read the
full register.
llvm-svn: 128642
Correctly terminate the range of register DBG_VALUEs when the register is
clobbered or when the basic block ends.
The code is now ready to deal with variables that are sometimes in a register
and sometimes on the stack. We just need to teach emitDebugLoc to say 'stack
slot'.
llvm-svn: 128327
The .dot directives don't need labels, that is a leftover from when we created
line number info manually.
Instructions following a DBG_VALUE can share its label since the DBG_VALUE
doesn't produce any code.
llvm-svn: 128284
This will extend the ranges of debug info variables in registers until they are
clobbered.
Fix 1: Don't mistake DBG_VALUE instructions referring to incoming arguments on
the stack with DBG_VALUE instructions referring to variables in the frame
pointer. This fixes the gdb test-suite failure.
Fix 2: Don't trace through copies to physical registers setting up call
arguments. These registers are call clobbered, and the source register is more
likely to be a callee-saved register that can be extended through the call
instruction.
llvm-svn: 128114
These ranges get completely jumbled by the post-ra scheduler, and it is not
really reasonable to expect it to make sense of them.
Instead, teach DwarfDebug to notice when user variables in registers are
clobbered, and terminate the ranges there.
llvm-svn: 128045
to have single return block (at least getting there) for optimizations. This
is general goodness but it would prevent some tailcall optimizations.
One specific case is code like this:
int f1(void);
int f2(void);
int f3(void);
int f4(void);
int f5(void);
int f6(void);
int foo(int x) {
switch(x) {
case 1: return f1();
case 2: return f2();
case 3: return f3();
case 4: return f4();
case 5: return f5();
case 6: return f6();
}
}
=>
LBB0_2: ## %sw.bb
callq _f1
popq %rbp
ret
LBB0_3: ## %sw.bb1
callq _f2
popq %rbp
ret
LBB0_4: ## %sw.bb3
callq _f3
popq %rbp
ret
This patch teaches codegenprep to duplicate returns when the return value
is a phi and where the phi operands are produced by tail calls followed by
an unconditional branch:
sw.bb7: ; preds = %entry
%call8 = tail call i32 @f5() nounwind
br label %return
sw.bb9: ; preds = %entry
%call10 = tail call i32 @f6() nounwind
br label %return
return:
%retval.0 = phi i32 [ %call10, %sw.bb9 ], [ %call8, %sw.bb7 ], ... [ 0, %entry ]
ret i32 %retval.0
This allows codegen to generate better code like this:
LBB0_2: ## %sw.bb
jmp _f1 ## TAILCALL
LBB0_3: ## %sw.bb1
jmp _f2 ## TAILCALL
LBB0_4: ## %sw.bb3
jmp _f3 ## TAILCALL

not have native support for this operation (such as X86).
The legalized code uses two vector INT_TO_FP operations and is faster
than scalarizing.
llvm-svn: 127951
comparisons on x86. Essentially, the way this works is that SUB+SBB sets
the relevant flags the same way a double-width CMP would.
This is a substantial improvement over the generic lowering in LLVM. The output
is also shorter than the gcc-generated output; I haven't done any detailed
benchmarking, though.
llvm-svn: 127852
rather than an int. Thankfully, this only causes LLVM to miss optimizations, not
generate incorrect code.
This just fixes the zext at the return. We still insert an i32 ZextAssert when
reading a function's arguments, but it is followed by a truncate and another i8
ZextAssert so it is not optimized.
