AVX2 is available.
According to IACA, the new lowering has a throughput of 8 cycles instead of 13
with the previous one.
Althought this lowering kicks in some SPECs benchmarks, the performance
improvement was within the noise.
Correctness testing has been done for the whole range of uint32_t with the
following program:
uint4 v = (uint4) {0,1,2,3};
uint32_t i;
//Check correctness over entire range for uint4 -> float4 conversion
for( i = 0; i < 1U << (32-2); i++ )
{
float4 t = test(v);
float4 c = correct(v);
if( 0xf != _mm_movemask_ps( t == c ))
{
printf( "Error @ %vx: %vf vs. %vf\n", v, c, t);
return -1;
}
v += 4;
}
Where "correct" is the old lowering and "test" the new one.
The patch adds a test case for the two custom lowering instruction.
It also modifies the vector cost model, which is why cast.ll and uitofp.ll are
modified.
2009-02-26-MachineLICMBug.ll is also modified because we now hoist 7
instructions instead of 4 (3 more constant loads).

This changes the SelectionDAG scheduling preference to source
order. Soon, the SelectionDAG scheduler can be bypassed saving
a nice chunk of compile time.
Performance differences that result from this change are often a
consequence of register coalescing. The register coalescer is far from
perfect. Bugs can be filed for deficiencies.
On x86 SandyBridge/Haswell, the source order schedule is often
preserved, particularly for small blocks.
Register pressure is generally improved over the SD scheduler's ILP
mode. However, we are still able to handle large blocks that require
latency hiding, unlike the SD scheduler's BURR mode. MI scheduler also
attempts to discover the critical path in single-block loops and
adjust heuristics accordingly.
The MI scheduler relies on the new machine model. This is currently
unimplemented for AVX, so we may not be generating the best code yet.
Unit tests are updated so they don't depend on SD scheduling heuristics.

Instead of having a bunch of separate MOV8r0, MOV16r0, ... pseudo-instructions,
it's better to use a single MOV32r0 (which will expand to "xorl %reg, %reg")
and obtain other sizes with EXTRACT_SUBREG and SUBREG_TO_REG. The encoding is
smaller and partial register updates can sometimes be avoided.
Until recently, this sequence was a barrier to rematerialization though. That
should now be fixed so it's an appropriate time to make the change.

Summary:
Statistics are still available in Release+Asserts (any +Asserts builds),
and stats can also be turned on with LLVM_ENABLE_STATS.
Move some of the FastISel stats that were moved under DEBUG()
back out of DEBUG(), since stats are disabled across the board now.
Many tests depend on grepping "-stats" output. Move those into
a orig_dir/Stats/. so that they can be marked as unsupported
when building without statistics.

These idempotent sub-register indices don't do anything --- They simply
map XMM registers to themselves. They no longer affect register classes
either since the SubRegClasses field has been removed from Target.td.
This patch replaces XMM->XMM EXTRACT_SUBREG and INSERT_SUBREG patterns
with COPY_TO_REGCLASS patterns which simply become COPY instructions.
The number of IMPLICIT_DEF instructions before register allocation is
reduced, and that is the cause of the test case changes.

versions of Bash. In addition, I can back out the change to the lit
built-in shell test runner to support this.
This should fix the majority of fallout on Darwin, but I suspect there
will be a few straggling issues.

This was done through the aid of a terrible Perl creation. I will not
paste any of the horrors here. Suffice to say, it require multiple
staged rounds of replacements, state carried between, and a few
nested-construct-parsing hacks that I'm not proud of. It happens, by
luck, to be able to deal with all the TCL-quoting patterns in evidence
in the LLVM test suite.
If anyone is maintaining large out-of-tree test trees, feel free to poke
me and I'll send you the steps I used to convert things, as well as
answer any painful questions etc. IRC works best for this type of thing
I find.
Once converted, switch the LLVM lit config to use ShTests the same as
Clang. In addition to being able to delete large amounts of Python code
from 'lit', this will also simplify the entire test suite and some of
lit's architecture.
Finally, the test suite runs 33% faster on Linux now. ;]

- Initial register pressure in the loop should be all the live defs into the
loop. Not just those from loop preheader which is often empty.
- When an instruction is hoisted, update register pressure from loop preheader
to the original BB.
- Treat only use of a virtual register as kill since the code is still SSA.

"long latency" enough to hoist even if it may increase spilling. Reloading
a value from spill slot is often cheaper than performing an expensive
computation in the loop. For X86, that means machine LICM will hoist
SQRT, DIV, etc. ARM will be somewhat aggressive with VFP and NEON
instructions.
- Enable register pressure aware machine LICM by default.

happening.
Enhance scheduling to set the DEAD flag on implicit defs
more aggressively. Before, we'd set an implicit def operand
to dead if it were present in the SDNode corresponding to
the machineinstr but had no use. Now we do it in this case
AND if the implicit def does not exist in the SDNode at all.
This exposes a couple of problems: one is the FIXME, which
causes a live intervals crash on CodeGen/X86/sibcall.ll.
The second is that it makes machinecse and licm more
aggressive (which is a good thing) but also exposes a case
where licm hoists a set0 and then it doesn't get resunk.
Talking to codegen folks about both these issues, but I need
this patch in in the meantime.
