On Jaguar, CMPXCHG has a latency of 11cy, and a maximum throughput of 0.33 IPC.
Throughput is superiorly limited to 0.33 because of the implicit in/out
dependency on register EAX. In the case of repeated non-atomic CMPXCHG with the
same memory location, store-to-load forwarding occurs and values for sequent
loads are quickly forwarded from the store buffer.
Interestingly, the functionality in LLVM that computes the reciprocal throughput
doesn't seem to know about RMW instructions. That functionality only looks at
the "consumed resource cycles" for the throughput computation. It should be
fixed/improved by a future patch. In particular, for RMW instructions, that
logic should also take into account for the write latency of in/out register
operands.
An atomic CMPXCHG has a latency of ~17cy. Throughput is also limited to
~17cy/inst due to cache locking, which prevents other memory uOPs to start
executing before the "lock releasing" store uOP.
CMPXCHG8rr and CMPXCHG8rm are treated specially because they decode to one less
macro opcode. Their latency tend to be the same as the other RR/RM variants. RR
variants are relatively fast 3cy (but still microcoded - 5 macro opcodes).
CMPXCHG8B is 11cy and unfortunately doesn't seem to benefit from store-to-load
forwarding. That means, throughput is clearly limited by the in/out dependency
on GPR registers. The uOP composition is sadly unknown (due to the lack of PMCs
for the Integer pipes). I have reused the same mix of consumed resource from the
other CMPXCHG instructions for CMPXCHG8B too.
LOCK CMPXCHG8B is instead 18cycles.
CMPXCHG16B is 32cycles. Up to 38cycles when the LOCK prefix is specified. Due to
the in/out dependencies, throughput is limited to 1 instruction every 32 (or 38)
cycles dependeing on whether the LOCK prefix is specified or not.
I wouldn't be surprised if the microcode for CMPXCHG16B is similar to 2x
microcode from CMPXCHG8B. So, I have speculatively set the JALU01 consumption to
2x the resource cycles used for CMPXCHG8B.
The two new hasLockPrefix() functions are used by the btver2 scheduling model
check if a MCInst/MachineInst has a LOCK prefix. Calls to hasLockPrefix() have
been encoded in predicates of variant scheduling classes that describe lat/thr
of CMPXCHG.

Summary:
For builds with LLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB=ON and BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF
this change makes all symbols in the target specific libraries hidden
by default.
A new macro called LLVM_EXTERNAL_VISIBILITY has been added to mark symbols in these
libraries public, which is mainly needed for the definitions of the
LLVMInitialize* functions.
This patch reduces the number of public symbols in libLLVM.so by about
25%. This should improve load times for the dynamic library and also
make abi checker tools, like abidiff require less memory when analyzing
libLLVM.so
One side-effect of this change is that for builds with
LLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB=ON and LLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB=ON some unittests that
access symbols that are no longer public will need to be statically linked.

This patch adds the ability for processor models to describe dependency breaking
instructions.
Different processors may specify a different set of dependency-breaking
instructions.
That means, we cannot assume that all processors of the same target would use
the same rules to classify dependency breaking instructions.
The main goal of this patch is to provide the means to describe dependency
breaking instructions directly via tablegen, and have the following
TargetSubtargetInfo hooks redefined in overrides by tabegen'd
XXXGenSubtargetInfo classes (here, XXX is a Target name).
```
virtual bool isZeroIdiom(const MachineInstr *MI, APInt &Mask) const {
return false;
}
virtual bool isDependencyBreaking(const MachineInstr *MI, APInt &Mask) const {
return isZeroIdiom(MI);
}
```
An instruction MI is a dependency-breaking instruction if a call to method
isDependencyBreaking(MI) on the STI (TargetSubtargetInfo object) evaluates to
true. Similarly, an instruction MI is a special case of zero-idiom dependency
breaking instruction if a call to STI.isZeroIdiom(MI) returns true.
The extra APInt is used for those targets that may want to select which machine
operands have their dependency broken (see comments in code).
Note that by default, subtargets don't know about the existence of
dependency-breaking. In the absence of external information, those method calls
would always return false.
A new tablegen class named STIPredicate has been added by this patch to let
processor models classify instructions that have properties in common. The idea
is that, a MCInstrPredicate definition can be used to "generate" an instruction
equivalence class, with the idea that instructions of a same class all have a
property in common.
STIPredicate definitions are essentially a collection of instruction equivalence
classes.
Also, different processor models can specify a different variant of the same
STIPredicate with different rules (i.e. predicates) to classify instructions.
Tablegen backends (in this particular case, the SubtargetEmitter) will be able
to process STIPredicate definitions, and automatically generate functions in
XXXGenSubtargetInfo.
This patch introduces two special kind of STIPredicate classes named
IsZeroIdiomFunction and IsDepBreakingFunction in tablegen. It also adds a
definition for those in the BtVer2 scheduling model only.
This patch supersedes the one committed at r338372 (phabricator review: D49310).
The main advantages are:
- We can describe subtarget predicates via tablegen using STIPredicates.
- We can describe zero-idioms / dep-breaking instructions directly via
tablegen in the scheduling models.
In future, the STIPredicates framework can be used for solving other problems.
Examples of future developments are:
- Teach how to identify optimizable register-register moves
- Teach how to identify slow LEA instructions (each subtarget defining its own
concept of "slow" LEA).
- Teach how to identify instructions that have undocumented false dependencies
on the output registers on some processors only.
It is also (in my opinion) an elegant way to expose knowledge to both external
tools like llvm-mca, and codegen passes.
For example, machine schedulers in LLVM could reuse that information when
internally constructing the data dependency graph for a code region.
This new design feature is also an "opt-in" feature. Processor models don't have
to use the new STIPredicates. It has all been designed to be as unintrusive as
possible.

This patch teaches llvm-mca how to identify dependency breaking instructions on
btver2.
An example of dependency breaking instructions is the zero-idiom XOR (example:
`XOR %eax, %eax`), which always generates zero regardless of the actual value of
the input register operands.
Dependency breaking instructions don't have to wait on their input register
operands before executing. This is because the computation is not dependent on
the inputs.
Not all dependency breaking idioms are also zero-latency instructions. For
example, `CMPEQ %xmm1, %xmm1` is independent on
the value of XMM1, and it generates a vector of all-ones.
That instruction is not eliminated at register renaming stage, and its opcode is
issued to a pipeline for execution. So, the latency is not zero.
This patch adds a new method named isDependencyBreaking() to the MCInstrAnalysis
interface. That method takes as input an instruction (i.e. MCInst) and a
MCSubtargetInfo.
The default implementation of isDependencyBreaking() conservatively returns
false for all instructions. Targets may override the default behavior for
specific CPUs, and return a value which better matches the subtarget behavior.
In future, we should teach to Tablegen how to automatically generate the body of
isDependencyBreaking from scheduling predicate definitions. This would allow us
to expose the knowledge about dependency breaking instructions to the machine
schedulers (and, potentially, other codegen passes).

This patch fixes the latency/throughput of LEA instructions in the BtVer2
scheduling model.
On Jaguar, A 3-operands LEA has a latency of 2cy, and a reciprocal throughput of
1. That is because it uses one cycle of SAGU followed by 1cy of ALU1. An LEA
with a "Scale" operand is also slow, and it has the same latency profile as the
3-operands LEA. An LEA16r has a latency of 3cy, and a throughput of 0.5 (i.e.
RThrouhgput of 2.0).
This patch adds a new TIIPredicate named IsThreeOperandsLEAFn to X86Schedule.td.
The tablegen backend (for instruction-info) expands that definition into this
(file X86GenInstrInfo.inc):
```
static bool isThreeOperandsLEA(const MachineInstr &MI) {
return (
(
MI.getOpcode() == X86::LEA32r
|| MI.getOpcode() == X86::LEA64r
|| MI.getOpcode() == X86::LEA64_32r
|| MI.getOpcode() == X86::LEA16r
)
&& MI.getOperand(1).isReg()
&& MI.getOperand(1).getReg() != 0
&& MI.getOperand(3).isReg()
&& MI.getOperand(3).getReg() != 0
&& (
(
MI.getOperand(4).isImm()
&& MI.getOperand(4).getImm() != 0
)
|| (MI.getOperand(4).isGlobal())
)
);
}
```
A similar method is generated in the X86_MC namespace, and included into
X86MCTargetDesc.cpp (the declaration lives in X86MCTargetDesc.h).
Back to the BtVer2 scheduling model:
A new scheduling predicate named JSlowLEAPredicate now checks if either the
instruction is a three-operands LEA, or it is an LEA with a Scale value
different than 1.
A variant scheduling class uses that new predicate to correctly select the
appropriate latency profile.

This patch teaches llvm-mca how to identify register writes that implicitly zero
the upper portion of a super-register.
On X86-64, a general purpose register is implemented in hardware as a 64-bit
register. Quoting the Intel 64 Software Developer's Manual: "an update to the
lower 32 bits of a 64 bit integer register is architecturally defined to zero
extend the upper 32 bits". Also, a write to an XMM register performed by an AVX
instruction implicitly zeroes the upper 128 bits of the aliasing YMM register.
This patch adds a new method named clearsSuperRegisters to the MCInstrAnalysis
interface to help identify instructions that implicitly clear the upper portion
of a super-register. The rest of the patch teaches llvm-mca how to use that new
method to obtain the information, and update the register dependencies
accordingly.
I compared the kernels from tests clear-super-register-1.s and
clear-super-register-2.s against the output from perf on btver2. Previously
there was a large discrepancy between the estimated IPC and the measured IPC.
Now the differences are mostly in the noise.

Summary:
This adds a set of new directives that describe 32-bit x86 prologues.
The directives are limited and do not expose the full complexity of
codeview FPO data. They are merely a convenience for the compiler to
generate more readable assembly so we don't need to generate tons of
labels in CodeGen. If our prologue emission changes in the future, we
can change the set of available directives to suit our needs. These are
modelled after the .seh_ directives, which use a different format that
interacts with exception handling.
The directives are:
.cv_fpo_proc _foo
.cv_fpo_pushreg ebp/ebx/etc
.cv_fpo_setframe ebp/esi/etc
.cv_fpo_stackalloc 200
.cv_fpo_endprologue
.cv_fpo_endproc
.cv_fpo_data _foo
I tried to follow the implementation of ARM EHABI CFI directives by
sinking most directives out of MCStreamer and into X86TargetStreamer.
This helps avoid polluting non-X86 code with WinCOFF specific logic.
I used cdb to confirm that this can show locals in parent CSRs in a few
cases, most importantly the one where we use ESI as a frame pointer,
i.e. the one in http://crbug.com/756153#c28
Once we have cdb integration in debuginfo-tests, we can add integration
tests there.

IMHO it is an antipattern to have a enum value that is Default.
At any given piece of code it is not clear if we have to handle
Default or if has already been mapped to a concrete value. In this
case in particular, only the target can do the mapping and it is nice
to make sure it is always done.
This deletes the two default enum values of CodeModel and uses an
explicit Optional<CodeModel> when it is possible that it is
unspecified.
llvm-svn: 309911
Having an enum member named Default is quite confusing: Is it distinct
from the others?
This patch removes that member and instead uses Optional<Reloc> in
places where we have a user input that still hasn't been maped to the
default value, which is now clear has no be one of the remaining 3
options.
