The register allocator can split a live interval of a register into a set
of smaller intervals. After the allocation of registers is complete, the
rewriter will modify the IR to replace virtual registers with the corres-
ponding physical registers. At this stage, if a register corresponding
to a subregister of a virtual register is used, the rewriter will check
if that subregister is undefined, and if so, it will add the <undef> flag
to the machine operand. The function verifying liveness of the subregis-
ter would assume that it is undefined, unless any of the subranges of the
live interval proves otherwise.
The problem is that the live intervals created during splitting do not
have any subranges, even if the original parent interval did. This could
result in the <undef> flag placed on a register that is actually defined.

Because isReallyTriviallyReMaterializableGeneric puts many limits on
rematerializable instructions, this fix can prevent instructions with
tied virtual operands and instructions with virtual register uses from
being kept in DeadRemat, so as to workaround the live interval consistency
problem for the dummy instructions kept in DeadRemat.
But we still need to fix the live interval consistency problem. This patch
is just a short time relieve. PR28464 has been filed as a reminder.

Because both split and spill hoisting want to use LastSplitPoint computation
result, extract the LastSplitPoint computation from SplitAnalysis class which
also contains a bunch of other analysises only related to split.

We didn't have logic to correctly handle CFGs where there was more than
one EH-pad successor (these are novel with WinEH).
There were situations where a register was live in one exceptional
successor but not another but the code as written would only consider
the first exceptional successor it found.
This resulted in split points which were insufficiently early if an
invoke was present.
This fixes PR27501.
N.B. This removes getLandingPadSuccessor.

two fixes with one about error verify-regalloc reported, and
another about live range update of phi after rematerialization.
r265547:
Replace analyzeSiblingValues with new algorithm to fix its compile
time issue. The patch is to solve PR17409 and its duplicates.
analyzeSiblingValues is a N x N complexity algorithm where N is
the number of siblings generated by reg splitting. Although it
causes siginificant compile time issue when N is large, it is also
important for performance since it removes redundent spills and
enables rematerialization.
To solve the compile time issue, the patch removes analyzeSiblingValues
and replaces it with lower cost alternatives containing two parts. The
first part creates a new spill hoisting method in postOptimization of
register allocation. It does spill hoisting at once after all the spills
are generated instead of inside every instance of selectOrSplit. The
second part queries the define expr of the original register for
rematerializaiton and keep it always available during register allocation
even if it is already dead. It deletes those dead instructions only in
postOptimization. With the two parts in the patch, it can remove
analyzeSiblingValues without sacrificing performance.

Take MachineInstr by reference instead of by pointer in SlotIndexes and
the SlotIndex wrappers in LiveIntervals. The MachineInstrs here are
never null, so this cleans up the API a bit. It also incidentally
removes a few implicit conversions from MachineInstrBundleIterator to
MachineInstr* (see PR26753).
At a couple of call sites it was convenient to convert to a range-based
for loop over MachineBasicBlock::instr_begin/instr_end, so I added
MachineBasicBlock::instrs.

getLandingPadSuccessor assumes that each invoke can have at most one EH
pad successor, but WinEH invokes can have more than one. Two out of
three callers of getLandingPadSuccessor don't use the returned
landingpad, so we can make them use this simple predicate instead.
Eventually we'll have to circle back and fix SplitKit.cpp so that
register allocation works. Baby steps.

This cleans up code and is more in line with the general philosophy of
modifying LiveIntervals through LiveIntervalAnalysis instead of changing
them directly.
This also fixes a case where SplitEditor::removeBackCopies() would miss

operator* on the by-operand iterators to return a MachineOperand& rather than

The Segment struct contains a single interval; multiple instances of this struct
are used to construct a live range, but the struct is not a live range by
itself.
llvm-svn: 192392
When new virtual registers are created during splitting/spilling, defer
creation of the live interval until we need to use the live interval.
Along with the recent commits to notify LiveRangeEdit when new virtual
registers are created, this makes it possible for functions like
TargetInstrInfo::loadRegFromStackSlot() and
TargetInstrInfo::storeRegToStackSlot() to create multiple virtual
registers as part of the process of generating loads/stores for
different register classes, and then have the live intervals for those
new registers computed when they are needed.
llvm-svn: 188437
Track new virtual registers by register number, rather than by the live
interval created for them. This is the first step in separating the
creation of new virtual registers and new live intervals. Eventually
live intervals will be created and populated on demand after the virtual
registers have been created and used in instructions.

The main advantages here are way better heuristics, taking into account not
just loop depth but also __builtin_expect and other static heuristics and will
eventually learn how to use profile info. Most of the work in this patch is
pushing the MachineBlockFrequencyInfo analysis into the right places.
This is good for a 5% speedup on zlib's deflate (x86_64), there were some very
unfortunate spilling decisions in its hottest loop in longest_match(). Other
benchmarks I tried were mostly neutral.
This changes register allocation in subtle ways, update the tests for it.

No functional change, just moved header files.
Targets can inject custom passes between register allocation and

If a value is defined by a COPY, that instuction can easily and cheaply

Consider this code:
int h() {
int x;
try {
x = f();
g();
} catch (...) {
return x+1;
}
return x;
}
The variable x is undefined on the first edge to the landing pad, but it
has the f() return value on the second edge to the landing pad.
SplitAnalysis::getLastSplitPoint() would assume that the return value
from f() was live into the landing pad when f() throws, which is of
course impossible.
Detect these cases, and treat them as if the landing pad wasn't there.
This allows spill code to be inserted after the function call to f().

For properties like mayLoad / mayStore, look into the bundle and if any of the

For properties like isPredicable, only return true if *all* of the bundled
instructions have the property.
For properties like canFoldAsLoad, isCompare, conservatively return false for

This makes no difference for normal defs, but early clobber dead defs
now look like:

instead of:
[Slot_EarlyClobber; Slot_Register).

The old naming scheme (load/use/def/store) can be traced back to an old
linear scan article, but the names don't match how slots are actually
used.
The load and store slots are not needed after the deferred spill code
insertion framework was deleted.
The use and def slots don't make any sense because we are using
half-open intervals as is customary in C code, but the names suggest
closed intervals. In reality, these slots were used to distinguish
early-clobber defs from normal defs.
The new naming scheme also has 4 slots, but the names match how the
slots are really used. This is a purely mechanical renaming, but some
of the code makes a lot more sense now.
llvm-svn: 144503
The leaveIntvAfter() function normally inserts a back-copy after the
requested instruction, making the back-copy kill the live range.
In spill mode, try to insert the back-copy before the last use instead.
That means the last use becomes the kill instead of the back-copy. This
lowers the register pressure because the last use can now redefine the
same register it was reading.
This will also improve compile time: The back-copy isn't a kill, so
hoisting it in hoistCopiesForSize() won't force a recomputation of the
source live range. Similarly, if the back-copy isn't hoisted by the
splitter, the spiller will not attempt hoisting it locally.
llvm-svn: 139883
When a back-copy is hoisted to the nearest common dominator, keep
looking up the dominator tree for a less loopy dominator, and place the
back-copy there instead.
Don't do this when a single existing back-copy dominates all the others.
Assume the client knows what he is doing, and keep the dominating
back-copy.
This prevents us from hoisting back-copies into loops in most cases. If
a value is defined in a loop with multiple exits, we may still hoist
back-copies into that loop. That is the speed/size tradeoff.
