computeRegisterLiveness() was broken in that it reported dead for a
register even if a subregister was alive. I assume this was because the
results of analayzePhysRegs() are hard to understand with respect to
subregisters.
This commit: Changes the results of analyzePhysRegs (=struct
PhysRegInfo) to be clearly understandable, also renames the fields to
avoid silent breakage of third-party code (and improve the grammar).
Fix all (two) users of computeRegisterLiveness() in llvm: By reenabling
it and removing workarounds for the bug.

In PIC mode we were previously computing global variable addresses (or GOT
entry addresses) by adding the PC, the PC-relative GOT displacement and
the GOT-relative symbol/GOT entry displacement. Because the latter two
displacements are fixed, we ended up performing one more addition than
necessary.
This change causes us to compute addresses using a single PC-relative
displacement, resulting in a shorter code sequence. This reduces code size
by about 4% in a recent build of Chromium for Android.
As a result of this change we no longer need to compute the GOT base address
in the ARM backend, which allows us to remove the Global Base Reg pass and
SDAG lowering for the GOT.
We also now no longer use the GOT when addressing a symbol which is known
to be defined in the same linkage unit. Specifically, the symbol must have
either hidden visibility or a strong definition in the current module in
order to not use the the GOT.
This is a change from the previous behaviour where we would use the GOT to
address externally visible symbols defined in the same module. I think the
only cases where this could matter are cases involving symbol interposition,
but we don't really support that well anyway.

We were previously codegen'ing memcpy as regular load/store operations and
hoping that the register allocator would allocate registers in ascending order
so that we could apply an LDM/STM combine after register allocation. According
to the commit that first introduced this code (r37179), we planned to teach the
register allocator to allocate the registers in ascending order. This never got
implemented, and up to now we've been stuck with very poor codegen.
A much simpler approach for achieving better codegen is to create MEMCPY pseudo
instructions, attach scratch virtual registers to them and then, post register
allocation, expand the MEMCPYs into LDM/STM pairs using the scratch registers.
The register allocator will have picked arbitrary registers which we sort when
expanding the MEMCPY. This approach also avoids the need to repeatedly calculate
offsets which ultimately ought to be eliminated pre-RA in order to decrease
register pressure.
Fixes PR9199 and PR23768.

In ARMBaseInstrInfo::isProfitableToIfCvt(), there is a simple cost model in which the number of cycles is scaled by a probability to estimate the cost. However, when the number of cycles is small (which is usually the case), there is a precision issue after the computation. To avoid this issue, this patch scales those cycles by 1024 (chosen to make the multiplication a litter faster) before they are scaled by the probability. Other variables are also scaled up for the final comparison.

llvm-svn: 248018
Previously in isProfitableToIfCvt() in ARMBaseInstrInfo.cpp, the multiplication between an integer and a branch probability is done manually in an unsafe way that may lead to overflow. This patch corrects those cases by using BranchProbability's member function scale() to avoid overflow (which stores the intermediate result in int64).

This commit removes the global manager variable which is responsible for
storing and allocating pseudo source values and instead it introduces a new
manager class named 'PseudoSourceValueManager'. Machine functions now own an
instance of the pseudo source value manager class.
This commit also modifies the 'get...' methods in the 'MachinePointerInfo'
class to construct pseudo source values using the instance of the pseudo
source value manager object from the machine function.
This commit updates calls to the 'get...' methods from the 'MachinePointerInfo'
class in a lot of different files because those calls now need to pass in a
reference to a machine function to those methods.
This change will make it easier to serialize pseudo source values as it will
enable me to transform the mips specific MipsCallEntry PseudoSourceValue
subclass into two target independent subclasses.

Create wrapper methods in the Function class for the OptimizeForSize and MinSize
attributes. We want to hide the logic of "or'ing" them together when optimizing
just for size (-Os).
Currently, we are not consistent about this and rely on a front-end to always set
OptimizeForSize (-Os) if MinSize (-Oz) is on. Thus, there are 18 FIXME changes here
that should be added as follow-on patches with regression tests.
This patch is NFC-intended: it just replaces existing direct accesses of the attributes
by the equivalent wrapper call.

In http://reviews.llvm.org/rL215382, IT forming was made more conservative under
the belief that a flag-setting instruction was unpredictable inside an IT block on ARMv6M.
But actually, ARMv6M doesn't even support IT blocks so that's impossible. In the ARMARM for
v7M, v7AR and v8AR it states that the semantics of such an instruction changes inside an
IT block - it doesn't set the flags. So actually it is fine to use one inside an IT block
as long as the flags register is dead afterwards.
This gives significant performance improvements in a variety of MPEG based workloads.

The original version didn't properly account for the base register
being modified before the final jump, so caused miscompilations in
Chromium and LLVM. I've fixed this and tested with an LLVM self-host
(I don't have the means to build & test Chromium).
The general idea remains the same: in pathological cases jump tables
can be too far away from the instructions referencing them (like other
constants) so they need to be movable.
Should fix PR23627.

Previously, subtarget features were a bitfield with the underlying type being uint64_t.
Since several targets (X86 and ARM, in particular) have hit or were very close to hitting this bound, switching the features to use a bitset.
No functional change.
The first several times this was committed (e.g. r229831, r233055), it caused several buildbot failures.
Apparently the reason for most failures was both clang and gcc's inability to deal with large numbers (> 10K) of bitset constructor calls in tablegen-generated initializers of instruction info tables.
This should now be fixed.

This was previously returning int. However there are no negative opcode
numbers and more importantly this was needlessly different from
MCInstrDesc::getOpcode() (which even is the value returned here) and
SDValue::getOpcode()/SDNode::getOpcode().

Previously, they were forced to immediately follow the actual branch
instruction. This was usually OK (the LEAs actually accessing them got emitted
nearby, and weren't usually separated much afterwards). Unfortunately, a
sufficiently nasty phi elimination dumps many instructions right before the
basic block terminator, and this can increase the range too much.
This patch frees them up to be placed as usual by the constant islands pass,
and consequently has to slightly modify the form of TBB/TBH tables to refer to
a PC-relative label at the final jump. The other jump table formats were
already position-independent.

In particular, this preserves the kill flag, which allows the Thumb2 cbn?z
optimization to be applied in cases where a branch has been re-created after
the live variables analysis pass, e.g. by the machine block placement pass.
This appears to be low risk; a number of other targets seem to already be
doing something similar, e.g. AArch64, PowerPC.

Peephole optimizer is scanning a basic block forward. At some point it
needs to answer the question "given a pointer to an MI in the current
BB, is it located before or after the current instruction".
To perform this, it keeps a set of the MIs already seen during the scan,
if a MI is not in the set, it is assumed to be after.
It means that newly created MIs have to be inserted in the set as well.
This commit passes the set as an argument to the target-dependent
optimizeSelect() so that it can properly update the set with the
(potentially) newly created MIs.

Creating tests for the ConstantIslands pass is very difficult, since it depends
on precise layout details. Having the ability to precisely inject a number of
bytes into the stream helps greatly.
llvm-svn: 221903
This commit adds a new pass that can inject checks before indirect calls to
make sure that these calls target known locations. It supports three types of
checks and, at compile time, it can take the name of a custom function to call
when an indirect call check fails. The default failure function ignores the
error and continues.
This pass incidentally moves the function JumpInstrTables::transformType from
private to public and makes it static (with a new argument that specifies the
table type to use); this is so that the CFI code can transform function types
at call sites to determine which jump-instruction table to use for the check at
that site.
Also, this removes support for jumptables in ARM, pending further performance
analysis and discussion.

As with x86 and AArch64, certain situations can arise where we need to spill
CPSR in the middle of a calculation. These should be avoided where possible
(MRS/MSR is rather expensive), which ARM is actually better at than the other
two since it tries to Glue defs to uses, but as a last ditch effort, copying is
better than crashing.

The FPv4-SP floating-point unit is generally referred to as
single-precision only, but it does have double-precision registers and
load, store and GPR<->DPR move instructions which operate on them.
This patch enables the use of these registers, the main advantage of
which is that we now comply with the AAPCS-VFP calling convention.
This partially reverts r209650, which added some AAPCS-VFP support,
but did not handle return values or alignment of double arguments in
registers.
This patch also adds tests for Thumb2 code generation for
floating-point instructions and intrinsics, which previously only
existed for ARM.
llvm-svn: 216172
For many Thumb-1 register register instructions, setting the CPSR is not
permitted inside an IT block. We would not correctly flag those instructions.
The previous change to identify this scenario was insufficient as it did not
actually catch all the instances. The current list is formed by manual
inspection of the ARMv6M ARM.
The change to the Thumb2 IT block test is due to the fact that the new more
stringent checking of the MIs results in the If Conversion pass being prevented
from executing (since not all the instructions in the BB are predicable). This
results in code gen changes.
Thanks to Tim Northover for pointing out that the previous patch was
insufficient and hinting that the use of the v6M ARM would be much easier to use
than the v7 or v8!
llvm-svn: 215382
The ARM ARM states that CPSR may not be updated by a MUL in thumb mode. Due to
an ordering of Thumb 2 Size Reduction and If Conversion, we would end up
generating a THUMB MULS inside an IT block.
The If Conversion pass uses the TTI isPredicable method to ensure that it can
transform a Basic Block. However, because we only check for IT handling on
Thumb2 functions, we may miss some cases. Even then, it only validates that the
CPSR is not *live* rather than it is not accessed. This corrects the handling
for that particular case since the same restriction does not hold on the vast
majority of the instructions.
This does prevent the IfConversion optimization from kicking in in certain
cases, but generating correct code is more valuable. Addresses PR20555.
