Summary:
In PostRA phase, we often have to find out the most recent definition
of a register. This patch adds getDefMIPostRA so that other methods
can use it rather than implementing it repeatedly.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

The D-Form VSX loads introduced in ISA 3.0 are not direct D-Form equivalent of
the corresponding X-Forms since they only target the Altivec registers.
Namely LXSSPX can load into any of the 64 VSX registers whereas LXSSP can only
load into the upper 32 VSX registers. Similarly with the remaining affected
instructions.
There is currently no way that I can see to trigger the bug, but as we add other
ways of exploiting these instructions, there may very well be instances that do.
This is an NFC patch in practical terms since the changes it introduces can not
be triggered without an MIR test.

There are occasionally instances where AADB rewrites registers in such a way
that a reg-reg copy becomes a self-copy. Such an instruction is obviously
redundant and can be removed. This patch does precisely that.
Note that this will not remove various nop's that we insert (which are
themselves just self-copies). The reason those are left alone is that all of
them have their own opcodes (that just encode to a self-copy).
What prompted this patch is the fact that these self-copies sometimes end up
using registers that make the instruction a priority-setting nop, thereby
having a significant effect on performance.

We have an unfortunate situation in our back end where we have to keep pairs of
functions synchronized. Needless to say that this is not an ideal situation as
it is very difficult to enforce. Even without bugs, it's annoying to have to do
the same thing in two places.
This patch just refactors the code so that the two pairs of those functions that
pertain to printing register operands are unified:
- stripRegisterPrefix() - this just removes the letter prefixes from registers
for the InstrPrinter and AsmPrinter. This patch provides this as a static
member of PPCRegisterInfo
- Handling of PPCII::UseVSXReg - there are 3 places where we do something
special for instructions with that flag set. Each of those places does its
own checking of this flag and implements code customization. Any changes to
how we print/encode VSX/VMX registers require modifying all 3 places. This
patch unifies this into a static function in PPCInstrInfo that returns the
register number adjusted as needed.

If the arch is P8, we will select XFLOAD to load the floating point, and then, expand it to vsx and non-vsx X-form instruction post RA. This patch is trying to convert the X-form to D-form if it meets the requirement that one operand of the x-form inst is the special Zero register, and another operand fed by add inst. i.e.
y = add imm, reg
LFDX. 0, y
-->
LFD imm(reg)

This patch adds functions to allow MachineLICM to hoist invariant stores.
Currently, MachineLICM does not hoist any store instructions, however
when storing the same value to a constant spot on the stack, the store
instruction should be considered invariant and be hoisted. The function
isInvariantStore iterates each operand of the store instruction and checks
that each register operand satisfies isCallerPreservedPhysReg. The store
may be fed by a copy, which is hoisted by isCopyFeedingInvariantStore.
This patch also adds the PowerPC changes needed to consider the stack
register as caller preserved.

Revision 320791 introduced a pass that transforms reg+reg instructions to
reg+imm if they're fed by "load immediate". However, it didn't
handle out-of-range shifts correctly as reported in PR35688.
This patch fixes that and therefore the PR.
Furthermore, there was undefined behaviour in the patch where the RHS of an
initialization expression was 32 bits and constant `1` was shifted left 32
bits. This was fixed by ensuring the RHS is 64 bits just like the LHS.

This patch adds the necessary infrastructure to convert instructions that
take two register operands to those that take a register and immediate if
the necessary operand is produced by a load-immediate. Furthermore, it uses
this infrastructure to perform such conversions twice - first at MachineSSA
and then pre-emit.
There are a number of reasons we may end up with opportunities for this
transformation, including but not limited to:
- X-Form instructions chosen since the exact offset isn't available at ISEL time
- Atomic instructions with constant operands (we will add patterns for this
in the future)
- Tail duplication may duplicate code where one block contains this redundancy
- When emitting compare-free code in PPCDAGToDAGISel, we don't handle constant
comparands specially
Furthermore, this patch moves the initialization of PPCMIPeepholePass so that
it can be used for MIR tests.

This patch adds a peep hole optimization to remove any redundant toc save
instructions added as part of the call sequence for indirect calls. It removes

The VSX versions have the advantage of a full 64-register target whereas the FP
ones have the advantage of lower latency and higher throughput. So what we’re
after is using the faster instructions in low register pressure situations and
using the larger register file in high register pressure situations.
The heuristic chooses between the following 7 pairs of instructions.
PPC::LXSSPX vs PPC::LFSX
PPC::LXSDX vs PPC::LFDX
PPC::STXSSPX vs PPC::STFSX
PPC::STXSDX vs PPC::STFDX
PPC::LXSIWAX vs PPC::LFIWAX
PPC::LXSIWZX vs PPC::LFIWZX

This patch enables redundant sign- and zero-extension elimination in PowerPC MI Peephole pass.
If the input value of a sign- or zero-extension is known to be already sign- or zero-extended, the operation is redundant and can be eliminated.
One common case is sign-extensions for a method parameter or for a method return value; they must be sign- or zero-extended as defined in PPC ELF ABI.
For example of the following simple code, two extsw instructions are generated before the invocation of int_func and before the return. With this patch, both extsw are eliminated.
void int_func(int);
void ii_test(int a) {
if (a & 1) return int_func(a);
}
Such redundant sign- or zero-extensions are quite common in many programs; e.g. I observed about 60,000 occurrences of the elimination while compiling the LLVM+CLANG.

This patch builds upon https://reviews.llvm.org/rL302810 to add

are to be done.

In addition to the original commit, tighten the condition for when to

Empty functions can lead to duplicate entries in the Guard CF Function
Table of a binary due to multiple functions sharing the same RVA,
causing the kernel to refuse to load that binary.
We had a terrific bug due to this in Chromium.
It turns out we were already doing this for Mach-O in certain
situations. This patch expands the code for that in
AsmPrinter::EmitFunctionBody() and renames
TargetInstrInfo::getNoopForMachoTarget() to simply getNoop() since it
seems it was used for not just Mach-O anyway.

This patch removes the VSHRC register class (based on D20310) and adds
exploitation of the Power9 sub-word integer loads into VSX registers as well
as vector sign extensions.
The new instructions are useful for a few purposes:
Int to Fp conversions of 1 or 2-byte values loaded from memory
Building vectors of 1 or 2-byte integers with values loaded from memory
Storing individual 1 or 2-byte elements from integer vectors
This patch implements all of those uses.

This is mostly a mechanical change to make TargetInstrInfo API take
MachineInstr& (instead of MachineInstr* or MachineBasicBlock::iterator)
when the argument is expected to be a valid MachineInstr. This is a
general API improvement.
Although it would be possible to do this one function at a time, that
would demand a quadratic amount of churn since many of these functions
call each other. Instead I've done everything as a block and just
updated what was necessary.
This is mostly mechanical fixes: adding and removing `*` and `&`
operators. The only non-mechanical change is to split
ARMBaseInstrInfo::getOperandLatencyImpl out from
ARMBaseInstrInfo::getOperandLatency. Previously, the latter took a
`MachineInstr*` which it updated to the instruction bundle leader; now,
the latter calls the former either with the same `MachineInstr&` or the
bundle leader.
As a side effect, this removes a bunch of MachineInstr* to
MachineBasicBlock::iterator implicit conversions, a necessary step
toward fixing PR26753.
Note: I updated WebAssembly, Lanai, and AVR (despite being
off-by-default) since it turned out to be easy. I couldn't run tests
for AVR since llc doesn't link with it turned on.

This used to be free, copying and moving DebugLocs became expensive

Change TargetInstrInfo API to take `MachineInstr&` instead of
`MachineInstr*` in the functions related to predicated instructions
(I'll try to come back later and get some of the rest). All of these
functions require non-null parameters already, so references are more
clear. As a bonus, this happens to factor away a host of implicit
iterator => pointer conversions.
No functionality change intended.

Add support for MIR serialization of PowerPC-specific operand target flags
(based on the generic infrastructure added in r244185 and r245383).
I won't even pretend that this is good test coverage, but this includes the
regression test associated with r246372. Adding an MIR test for that fix is far
superior to adding an IR-level test because particular instruction-scheduling
decisions are necessary in order to expose the bug, and using an MIR test we
can start the pipeline post-scheduling.
llvm-svn: 246373
This is a direct port of the code from the X86 backend (r239486/r240361), which
uses the MachineCombiner to reassociate (floating-point) adds/muls to increase
ILP, to the PowerPC backend. The rationale is the same.
There is a lot of copy-and-paste here between the X86 code and the PowerPC
code, and we should extract at least some of this into CodeGen somewhere.
However, I don't want to do that until this code is enhanced to handle FMAs as
well. After that, we'll be in a better position to extract the common parts.
llvm-svn: 242279
PowerPC uses itineraries to describe processor pipelines (and dispatch-group
restrictions for P7/P8 cores). Unfortunately, the target-independent
implementation of TII.getInstrLatency calls ItinData->getStageLatency, and that
looks for the largest cycle count in the pipeline for any given instruction.
This, however, yields the wrong answer for the PPC itineraries, because we
don't encode the full pipeline. Because the functional units are fully
pipelined, we only model the initial stages (there are no relevant hazards in
the later stages to model), and so the technique employed by getStageLatency
does not really work. Instead, we should take the maximum output operand
latency, and that's what PPCInstrInfo::getInstrLatency now does.
This caused some test-case churn, including two unfortunate side effects.
First, the new arrangement of copies we get from function parameters now
sometimes blocks VSX FMA mutation (a FIXME has been added to the code and the
test cases), and we have one significant test-suite regression:
SingleSource/Benchmarks/BenchmarkGame/spectral-norm
56.4185% +/- 18.9398%
In this benchmark we have a loop with a vectorized FP divide, and it with the
new scheduling both divides end up in the same dispatch group (which in this
case seems to cause a problem, although why is not exactly clear). The grouping
structure is hard to predict from the bottom of the loop, and there may not be
much we can do to fix this.
Very few other test-suite performance effects were really significant, but
almost all weakly favor this change. However, in light of the issues
highlighted above, I've left the old behavior available via a
command-line flag.
