- Change register allocation hint to a pair of unsigned integers. The hint type is zero (which means prefer the register specified as second part of the pair) or entirely target dependent.
- Allow targets to specify alternative register allocation orders based on allocation hint.
Part 2.
- Use the register allocation hint system to implement more aggressive load / store multiple formation.
- Aggressively form LDRD / STRD. These are formed *before* register allocation. It has to be done this way to shorten live interval of base and offset registers. e.g.
v1025 = LDR v1024, 0
v1026 = LDR v1024, 0
=>
v1025,v1026 = LDRD v1024, 0
If this transformation isn't done before allocation, v1024 will overlap v1025 which means it more difficult to allocate a register pair.
- Even with the register allocation hint, it may not be possible to get the desired allocation. In that case, the post-allocation load / store multiple pass must fix the ldrd / strd instructions. They can either become ldm / stm instructions or back to a pair of ldr / str instructions.
This is work in progress, not yet enabled.

VirtRegMap keeps track of allocations so it knows what's not used. As a horrible hack, the stack coloring can color spill slots with *free* registers. That is, it replace reload and spills with copies from and to the free register. It unfold instructions that load and store the spill slot and replace them with register using variants.
Not yet enabled. This is part 1. More coming.

instead of requiring all "short description" strings to begin with
two spaces. This makes these strings less mysterious, and it fixes
some cases where short description strings mistakenly did not
begin with two spaces.

MachineMemOperands. The pools are owned by MachineFunctions.
This drastically reduces the number of calls to malloc/free made
during the "Emit" phase of scheduling, as well as later phases
in CodeGen. Combined with other changes, this speeds up the
"instruction selection" phase of CodeGen by 10% in some cases.

If local spiller optimization turns some instruction into an identity copy, it will be removed. If the output register happens to be dead (and source is obviously killed), transfer the kill / dead information to last use / def in the same MBB.
llvm-svn: 51306
%ecx = op
store %cl<kill>, (addr)
(addr) = op %al
It's not safe to unfold the last operand and eliminate store even though %cl is marked kill. It's a sub-register use which means one of its super-register(s) may be used below.

that it is cheap and efficient to get.
Move a variety of predicates from TargetInstrInfo into
TargetInstrDescriptor, which makes it much easier to query a predicate
when you don't have TII around. Now you can use MI->getDesc()->isBranch()
instead of going through TII, and this is much more efficient anyway. Not
all of the predicates have been moved over yet.
Update old code that used MI->getInstrDescriptor()->Flags to use the
new predicates in many places.

that "machine" classes are used to represent the current state of
the code being compiled. Given this expanded name, we can start
moving other stuff into it. For now, move the UsedPhysRegs and
LiveIn/LoveOuts vectors from MachineFunction into it.
Update all the clients to match.
This also reduces some needless #includes, such as MachineModuleInfo
from MachineFunction.

- Eliminate the static "print" method for operands, moving it
into MachineOperand::print.
- Change various set* methods for register flags to take a bool
for the value to set it to. Remove unset* methods.
- Group methods more logically by operand flavor in MachineOperand.h

This allows an important optimization to be re-enabled.
- If all uses / defs of a split interval can be folded, give the interval a
low spill weight so it would not be picked in case spilling is needed (avoid
pushing other intervals in the same BB to be spilled).
llvm-svn: 44601
When a live interval is being spilled, rather than creating short, non-spillable
intervals for every def / use, split the interval at BB boundaries. That is, for
every BB where the live interval is defined or used, create a new interval that
covers all the defs and uses in the BB.
This is designed to eliminate one common problem: multiple reloads of the same
value in a single basic block. Note, it does *not* decrease the number of spills
since no copies are inserted so the split intervals are *connected* through
spill and reloads (or rematerialization). The newly created intervals can be
spilled again, in that case, since it does not span multiple basic blocks, it's
spilled in the usual manner. However, it can reuse the same stack slot as the
previously split interval.
This is currently controlled by -split-intervals-at-bb.
llvm-svn: 44198
MachineOperand auxInfo. Previous clunky implementation uses an external map
to track sub-register uses. That works because register allocator uses
a new virtual register for each spilled use. With interval splitting (coming
soon), we may have multiple uses of the same register some of which are
of using different sub-registers from others. It's too fragile to constantly
update the information.
llvm-svn: 44104
Turn a store folding instruction into a load folding instruction. e.g.
xorl %edi, %eax
movl %eax, -32(%ebp)
movl -36(%ebp), %eax
orl %eax, -32(%ebp)
=>
xorl %edi, %eax
orl -36(%ebp), %eax
mov %eax, -32(%ebp)
This enables the unfolding optimization for a subsequent instruction which will
also eliminate the newly introduced store instruction.
llvm-svn: 43192
Turn this:
movswl %ax, %eax
movl %eax, -36(%ebp)
xorl %edi, -36(%ebp)
into
movswl %ax, %eax
xorl %edi, %eax
movl %eax, -36(%ebp)
by unfolding the load / store xorl into an xorl and a store when we know the
value in the spill slot is available in a register. This doesn't change the
number of instructions but reduce the number of times memory is accessed.
Also unfold some load folding instructions and reuse the value when similar
situation presents itself.

(almost) a register copy. However, it always coalesced to the register of the
RHS (the super-register). All uses of the result of a EXTRACT_SUBREG are sub-
register uses which adds subtle complications to load folding, spiller rewrite,
etc.

with a general target hook to identify rematerializable instructions. Some
instructions are only rematerializable with specific operands, such as loads
from constant pools, while others are always rematerializable. This hook
allows both to be identified as being rematerializable with the same
mechanism.

The code sequence before the spiller is something like:
= tMOVrr
%reg1117 = tMOVrr
%reg1078 = tLSLri %reg1117, 2
The it starts spilling:
%r0 = tRestore <fi#5>, 0
%r1 = tRestore <fi#7>, 0
%r1 = tMOVrr %r1<kill>
tSpill %r1, <fi#5>, 0
%reg1078 = tLSLri %reg1117, 2
It restores the value while processing the first tMOVrr. At this point, the
spiller remembers fi#5 is available in %r0. Next it processes the second move.
It restores the source before the move and spills the result afterwards. The
move becomes a noop and is deleted. However, a spill has been inserted and that
should invalidate reuse of %r0 for fi#5 and add reuse of %r1 for fi#5.
Therefore, %reg1117 (which is also assigned fi#5) should get %r1, not %r0.

t1 := op t2, t3

t3 <- assigned r1 for use by the reload but ended up reuse r0

rework the hacks that had us passing OStream in. We pass in std::ostream*
instead, check for null, and then dispatch to the correct print() method.
llvm-svn: 32636
If a spillslot value is available in a register, and there is a noop copy that
targets that register, the spiller correctly decide not to invalidate the
spillslot register.
However, even though the noop copy does not clobbers the value. It does start a
new intersecting live range. That means the spillslot register is available for
use but should not be reused for a two-address instruction modref operand which
would clobber the new live range.
When we remove the noop copy, update the available information by clearing the
canClobber bit.

tied to another oeprand, 2) whether is is being tied to by another operand. So
the destination operand of a two-address MI can be correctly identified.
llvm-svn: 32354
there may be other def(s) apart from the use&def two-address operand. We need
to check if the register reuse for a use&def operand may conflicts with another
def. Provide a mean to recover from the conflict if it is detected when the
defs are processed later.
