Summary:
Reduce the statefulness of the algorithm in two ways:
1. More clearly split generateWaitcntInstBefore into two phases: the
first one which determines the required wait, if any, without changing
the ScoreBrackets, and the second one which actually inserts the wait
and updates the brackets.
2. Communicate pre-existing s_waitcnt instructions using an argument to
generateWaitcntInstBefore instead of through the ScoreBrackets.
To simplify these changes, a Waitcnt structure is introduced which carries
the counts of an s_waitcnt instruction in decoded form.
There are some functional changes:
1. The FIXME for the VCCZ bug workaround was implemented: we only wait for
SMEM instructions as required instead of waiting on all counters.
2. We now properly track pre-existing waitcnt's in all cases, which leads
to less conservative waitcnts being emitted in some cases.
s_load_dword ...
s_waitcnt lgkmcnt(0) <-- pre-existing wait count
ds_read_b32 v0, ...
ds_read_b32 v1, ...
s_waitcnt lgkmcnt(0) <-- this is too conservative
use(v0)
more code
use(v1)
This increases code size a bit, but the reduced latency should still be a
win in basically all cases. The worst code size regressions in my shader-db
are:
