Account for bypass delays when computing the latency of scalar int-to-float
conversions.
On Jaguar we need to account for an extra 6cy latency (see AMD fam16h SOG).
This patch also fixes the number of micropcodes for the register-memory variants
of scalar int-to-float conversions.

This patch adds a new ReadAdvance definition named ReadInt2Fpu.
ReadInt2Fpu allows x86 scheduling models to accurately describe delays caused by
data transfers from the integer unit to the floating point unit.
ReadInt2Fpu currently defaults to a delay of zero cycles (i.e. no delay) for all
x86 models excluding BtVer2. That means, this patch is only a functional change
for the Jaguar cpu model only.
Tablegen definitions for instructions (V)PINSR* have been updated to account for
the new ReadInt2Fpu. That read is mapped to the the GPR input operand.
On Jaguar, int-to-fpu transfers are modeled as a +6cy delay. Before this patch,
that extra delay was added to the opcode latency. In practice, the insert opcode
only executes for 1cy. Most of the actual latency is actually contributed by the
so-called operand-latency. According to the AMD SOG for family 16h, (V)PINSR*
latency is defined by expression f+1, where f is defined as a forwarding delay
from the integer unit to the fpu.
When printing instruction latency from MCA (see InstructionInfoView.cpp) and LLC
(only when flag -print-schedule is speified), we now need to account for any
extra forwarding delays. We do this by checking if scheduling classes declare
any negative ReadAdvance entries. Quoting a code comment in TargetSchedule.td:
"A negative advance effectively increases latency, which may be used for
cross-domain stalls". When computing the instruction latency for the purpose of
our scheduling tests, we now add any extra delay to the formula. This avoids
regressing existing codegen and mca schedule tests. It comes with the cost of an
extra (but very simple) hook in MCSchedModel.

r327630 introduced new write definitions for float/vector loads.
Before that revision, WriteLoad was used by both integer/float (scalar/vector)
load. So, WriteLoad had to conservatively declare a latency to 5cy. That is
because the load-to-use latency for float/vector load is 5cy.
Now that we have dedicated writes for float/vector loads, there is no reason why
we should keep the latency of WriteLoad to 5cy. At the moment, WriteLoad is only
used by scalar integer loads only; we can assume an optimstic 3cy latency for
them.
This patch changes that latency from 5cy to 3cy, and regenerates the affected
scheduling/mca tests.

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

On Jaguar, horizontal adds/subs have local forwarding disable.
That means, we pay a compulsory extra cycle of write-back stage, and the value
is not available until the end of that stage.
This patch changes the latency of horizontal operations by adding an extra
cycle. With this patch, latency numbers now match what is reported by perf.
I plan to send another patch to also 'fix' the latency of shuffle operations (on
Jaguar, local forwarding is disabled for vector shuffles too).

This patch adds the ability to identify instructions that are "move elimination
candidates". It also allows scheduling models to describe processor register
files that allow move elimination.
A move elimination candidate is an instruction that can be eliminated at
register renaming stage.
Each subtarget can specify which instructions are move elimination candidates
with the help of tablegen class "IsOptimizableRegisterMove" (see
llvm/Target/TargetInstrPredicate.td).
For example, on X86, BtVer2 allows both GPR and MMX/SSE moves to be eliminated.
The definition of 'IsOptimizableRegisterMove' for BtVer2 looks like this:
```
def : IsOptimizableRegisterMove<[
InstructionEquivalenceClass<[
// GPR variants.
MOV32rr, MOV64rr,
// MMX variants.
MMX_MOVQ64rr,
// SSE variants.
MOVAPSrr, MOVUPSrr,
MOVAPDrr, MOVUPDrr,
MOVDQArr, MOVDQUrr,
// AVX variants.
VMOVAPSrr, VMOVUPSrr,
VMOVAPDrr, VMOVUPDrr,
VMOVDQArr, VMOVDQUrr
], CheckNot<CheckSameRegOperand<0, 1>> >
]>;
```
Definitions of IsOptimizableRegisterMove from processor models of a same
Target are processed by the SubtargetEmitter to auto-generate a target-specific
override for each of the following predicate methods:
```
bool TargetSubtargetInfo::isOptimizableRegisterMove(const MachineInstr *MI)
const;
bool MCInstrAnalysis::isOptimizableRegisterMove(const MCInst &MI, unsigned
CPUID) const;
```
By default, those methods return false (i.e. conservatively assume that there
are no move elimination candidates).
Tablegen class RegisterFile has been extended with the following information:
- The set of register classes that allow move elimination.
- Maxium number of moves that can be eliminated every cycle.
- Whether move elimination is restricted to moves from registers that are
known to be zero.
This patch is structured in three part:
A first part (which is mostly boilerplate) adds the new
'isOptimizableRegisterMove' target hooks, and extends existing register file
descriptors in MC by introducing new fields to describe properties related to
move elimination.
A second part, uses the new tablegen constructs to describe move elimination in
the BtVer2 scheduling model.
A third part, teaches llm-mca how to query the new 'isOptimizableRegisterMove'
hook to mark instructions that are candidates for move elimination. It also
teaches class RegisterFile how to describe constraints on move elimination at
PRF granularity.
llvm-mca tests for btver2 show differences before/after this patch.

Currently we hardcode instructions with ReadAfterLd if the register operands don't need to be available until the folded load has completed. This doesn't take into account the different load latencies of different memory operands (PR36957).
This patch adds a ReadAfterFold def into X86FoldableSchedWrite to replace ReadAfterLd, allowing us to specify the load latency at a scheduler class level.
I've added ReadAfterVec*Ld classes that match the XMM/Scl, XMM and YMM/ZMM WriteVecLoad classes that we currently use, we can tweak these values in future patches once this infrastructure is in place.

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.

The presence of a ReadAdvance for input operand #0 is problematic
because it changes the input latency of the register used as the base address
for the folded load.
A broadcast cannot start executing if the load address hasn't been computed yet.
In the llvm-mca example, the VBROADCASTSS is dependent on the address generated
by the LEAQ. That means, it cannot start until LEAQ reaches the write-back
stage. If we apply ReadAdvance, then we wrongly assume that the load can start 3
cycles in advance.

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.

registers.
The goal of this patch is to improve the throughput analysis in llvm-mca for the
case where instructions perform partial register writes.
On x86, partial register writes are quite difficult to model, mainly because
different processors tend to implement different register merging schemes in
hardware.
When the code contains partial register writes, the IPC (instructions per
cycles) estimated by llvm-mca tends to diverge quite significantly from the
observed IPC (using perf).
Modern AMD processors (at least, from Bulldozer onwards) don't rename partial
registers. Quoting Agner Fog's microarchitecture.pdf:
" The processor always keeps the different parts of an integer register together.
For example, AL and AH are not treated as independent by the out-of-order
execution mechanism. An instruction that writes to part of a register will
therefore have a false dependence on any previous write to the same register or
any part of it."
This patch is a first important step towards improving the analysis of partial
register updates. It changes the semantic of RegisterFile descriptors in
tablegen, and teaches llvm-mca how to identify false dependences in the presence
of partial register writes (for more details: see the new code comments in
include/Target/TargetSchedule.h - class RegisterFile).
This patch doesn't address the case where a write to a part of a register is
followed by a read from the whole register. On Intel chips, high8 registers
(AH/BH/CH/DH)) can be stored in separate physical registers. However, a later
(dirty) read of the full register (example: AX/EAX) triggers a merge uOp, which
adds extra latency (and potentially affects the pipe usage).
This is a very interesting article on the subject with a very informative answer
from Peter Cordes:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45660139/how-exactly-do-partial-registers-on-haswell-skylake-perform-writing-al-seems-to
In future, the definition of RegisterFile can be extended with extra information
that may be used to identify delays caused by merge opcodes triggered by a dirty
read of a partial write.
