The register set for LDMIA begins at offset 3, not 4. We were previously
missing the short encoding of this instruction in the case where the base
register was the first register in the register set.
Also clean up some dead code:
- The isARMLowRegister check is redundant with what VerifyLowRegs does;
replace with an assert.
- Remove handling of LDMDB instruction, which has no short encoding (and
does not appear in ReduceTable).

This patch introduces a new pass that computes the safe point to insert the
prologue and epilogue of the function.
The interest is to find safe points that are cheaper than the entry and exits
blocks.
As an example and to avoid regressions to be introduce, this patch also
implements the required bits to enable the shrink-wrapping pass for AArch64.
** Context **
Currently we insert the prologue and epilogue of the method/function in the
entry and exits blocks. Although this is correct, we can do a better job when
those are not immediately required and insert them at less frequently executed
places.
The job of the shrink-wrapping pass is to identify such places.
** Motivating example **
Let us consider the following function that perform a call only in one branch of
a if:
define i32 @f(i32 %a, i32 %b) {
%tmp = alloca i32, align 4
%tmp2 = icmp slt i32 %a, %b
br i1 %tmp2, label %true, label %false
true:
store i32 %a, i32* %tmp, align 4
%tmp4 = call i32 @doSomething(i32 0, i32* %tmp)
br label %false
false:
%tmp.0 = phi i32 [ %tmp4, %true ], [ %a, %0 ]
ret i32 %tmp.0
}
On AArch64 this code generates (removing the cfi directives to ease
readabilities):
_f: ; @f
; BB#0:
stp x29, x30, [sp, #-16]!
mov x29, sp
sub sp, sp, #16 ; =16
cmp w0, w1
b.ge LBB0_2
; BB#1: ; %true
stur w0, [x29, #-4]
sub x1, x29, #4 ; =4
mov w0, wzr
bl _doSomething
LBB0_2: ; %false
mov sp, x29
ldp x29, x30, [sp], #16
ret
With shrink-wrapping we could generate:
_f: ; @f
; BB#0:
cmp w0, w1
b.ge LBB0_2
; BB#1: ; %true
stp x29, x30, [sp, #-16]!
mov x29, sp
sub sp, sp, #16 ; =16
stur w0, [x29, #-4]
sub x1, x29, #4 ; =4
mov w0, wzr
bl _doSomething
add sp, x29, #16 ; =16
ldp x29, x30, [sp], #16
LBB0_2: ; %false
ret
Therefore, we would pay the overhead of setting up/destroying the frame only if
we actually do the call.
** Proposed Solution **
This patch introduces a new machine pass that perform the shrink-wrapping
analysis (See the comments at the beginning of ShrinkWrap.cpp for more details).
It then stores the safe save and restore point into the MachineFrameInfo
attached to the MachineFunction.
This information is then used by the PrologEpilogInserter (PEI) to place the
related code at the right place. This pass runs right before the PEI.
Unlike the original paper of Chow from PLDI’88, this implementation of
shrink-wrapping does not use expensive data-flow analysis and does not need hack
to properly avoid frequently executed point. Instead, it relies on dominance and
loop properties.
The pass is off by default and each target can opt-in by setting the
EnableShrinkWrap boolean to true in their derived class of TargetPassConfig.
This setting can also be overwritten on the command line by using
-enable-shrink-wrap.
Before you try out the pass for your target, make sure you properly fix your
emitProlog/emitEpilog/adjustForXXX method to cope with basic blocks that are not
necessarily the entry block.
** Design Decisions **
1. ShrinkWrap is its own pass right now. It could frankly be merged into PEI but
for debugging and clarity I thought it was best to have its own file.
2. Right now, we only support one save point and one restore point. At some
point we can expand this to several save point and restore point, the impacted
component would then be:
- The pass itself: New algorithm needed.
- MachineFrameInfo: Hold a list or set of Save/Restore point instead of one
pointer.
- PEI: Should loop over the save point and restore point.
Anyhow, at least for this first iteration, I do not believe this is interesting
to support the complex cases. We should revisit that when we motivating
examples.

When forming an IT block from the first MOV here:
%R2<def> = t2MOVr %R0, pred:1, pred:%CPSR, opt:%noreg
%R3<def> = tMOVr %R0<kill>, pred:14, pred:%noreg
the move in to R3 is moved out of the IT block so that later instructions on the same predicate can be inside this block, and we can share the IT instruction.
However, when moving the R3 copy out of the IT block, we need to clear its kill flags for anything in use at this point in time, ie, R0 here.
This appeases the machine verifier which thought that R0 wasn't defined when used.
I have a test case, but its extremely register allocator specific. It would be too fragile to commit a test which depends on the register allocator here.
llvm-svn: 236468
Converting from t2LDRs to tLDRr caused the shift argument to drop the internal flag. This would then throw machine verifier errors.
Unfortunately i'm having trouble reducing a test case. I'm going to keep trying, but so far its a scary combination of machine sinking, an 'and i1', loads feeding loads, and a bunch of code which shouldn't change IT block formation, but does. Its not useful to commit a test in that state as we have no way of knowing if it even hits this code reliably in future.

There's probably no way to test BXJ, but if the compiler ever did emit it

[DebugInfo] Add debug locations to constant SD nodes
This adds debug location to constant nodes of Selection DAG and updates
all places that create constants to pass debug locations
(see PR13269).
Can't guarantee that all locations are correct, but in a lot of cases choice
is obvious, so most of them should be. At least all tests pass.
Tests for these changes do not cover everything, instead just check it for
SDNodes, ARM and AArch64 where it's easy to get incorrect locations on
constants.
This is not complete fix as FastISel contains workaround for wrong debug
locations, which drops locations from instructions on processing constants,
but there isn't currently a way to use debug locations from constants there
as llvm::Constant doesn't cache it (yet). Although this is a bit different
issue, not directly related to these changes.

The order in which branches appear in ImmBranches is approximately their
order within the function body. By visiting later branches first, we reduce
the distance between earlier forward branches and their targets, making it
more likely that the cbn?z optimization, which can only apply to forward
branches, will succeed for those earlier branches.

In particular, this preserves the kill flag, which allows the Thumb2 cbn?z
optimization to be applied in cases where a branch has been re-created after
the live variables analysis pass, e.g. by the machine block placement pass.
This appears to be low risk; a number of other targets seem to already be
doing something similar, e.g. AArch64, PowerPC.

This appears to have been introduced back in r76698 as part of an unrelated
change. I can find no official ARM documentation stating that Thumb-2 functions
require 4-byte alignment; in fact, ARM documentation appears to contradict
this (see, e.g., ARM Architecture Reference Manual Thumb-2 Supplement,
section 2.6.1: "Thumb-2 enforces 16-bit alignment on all instructions.").
Also remove code that sets alignment for ARM functions, which is redundant
with code in the MachineFunction constructor, and remove the hidden
-arm-align-constant-islands flag, which has been enabled by default since
r146739 (Dec 2011) and has probably received sufficient testing by now.

BXJ was incorrectly said to be unsupported in ARMv8-A. It is not
supported in the A64 instruction set, but it is supported in the T32

Using SP as an operand to BXJ changed from UNPREDICTABLE to
PREDICTABLE in v8-A. This patch reflects that update as well.

Currently, there's a single flag, checked by the pass itself.
It can't force-enable the pass (and is on by default), because it
might not even have been created, as that's the targets decision.
Instead, have separate explicit flags, so that the decision is
consistently made in the target.
Keep the flag as a last-resort "force-disable GlobalMerge" for now,
for backwards compatibility.

Currently, llvm (backend) doesn't know cortex-r4, even though it is the

This shouldn't affect anything in-tree, as the OperandType users are
mostly smart disassemblers and such; more information is helpful there.
However, on the flip side, that + the fact that this is just hinting at

After recognising that a certain narrow instruction might need a relocation to
be represented, we used to unconditionally relax it to a Thumb2 instruction to
permit this. Unfortunately, some CPUs (e.g. v6m) don't even have most Thumb2
instructions, so we end up emitting a completely invalid instruction.
Theoretically, ELF does have relocations for these situations; but they are
fairly unusable with such short ranges and the ABI document even says they're
documented "for completeness". So an error is probably better there too.

per-function subtarget.
Currently, code-gen passes the default or generic subtarget to the constructors
of MCInstPrinter subclasses (see LLVMTargetMachine::addPassesToEmitFile), which
enables some targets (AArch64, ARM, and X86) to change their instprinter's
behavior based on the subtarget feature bits. Since the backend can now use
different subtargets for each function, instprinter has to be changed to use the
per-function subtarget rather than the default subtarget.
This patch takes the first step towards enabling instprinter to change its
behavior based on the per-function subtarget. It adds a bit "PassSubtarget" to
AsmWriter which tells table-gen to pass a reference to MCSubtargetInfo to the
various print methods table-gen auto-generates.
I will follow up with changes to instprinters of AArch64, ARM, and X86.

Summary:
The ARM backend can use a loop to implement copying byval parameters before
a call. In non-thumb2 mode it uses a constant pool load to materialize the
trip count. For targets that need movt instead (e.g. Native Client), use
the same code as in thumb2 mode to materialize the trip count.
