      Part 1. · 1283c6a0
      Evan Cheng authored
      - Change register allocation hint to a pair of unsigned integers. The hint type is zero (which means prefer the register specified as second part of the pair) or entirely target dependent.
      - Allow targets to specify alternative register allocation orders based on allocation hint.
      
      Part 2.
      - Use the register allocation hint system to implement more aggressive load / store multiple formation.
      - Aggressively form LDRD / STRD. These are formed *before* register allocation. It has to be done this way to shorten live interval of base and offset registers. e.g.
      v1025 = LDR v1024, 0
      v1026 = LDR v1024, 0
      =>
      v1025,v1026 = LDRD v1024, 0
      
      If this transformation isn't done before allocation, v1024 will overlap v1025 which means it more difficult to allocate a register pair.
      
      - Even with the register allocation hint, it may not be possible to get the desired allocation. In that case, the post-allocation load / store multiple pass must fix the ldrd / strd instructions. They can either become ldm / stm instructions or back to a pair of ldr / str instructions.
      
      This is work in progress, not yet enabled.

      Implement support for using modeling implicit-zero-extension on x86-64 · ad3e549a
      Dan Gohman authored
      with SUBREG_TO_REG, teach SimpleRegisterCoalescing to coalesce
      SUBREG_TO_REG instructions (which are similar to INSERT_SUBREG
      instructions), and teach the DAGCombiner to take advantage of this on
      targets which support it. This eliminates many redundant
      zero-extension operations on x86-64.
      
      This adds a new TargetLowering hook, isZExtFree. It's similar to
      isTruncateFree, except it only applies to actual definitions, and not
      no-op truncates which may not zero the high bits.
      
      Also, this adds a new optimization to SimplifyDemandedBits: transform
      operations like x+y into (zext (add (trunc x), (trunc y))) on targets
      where all the casts are no-ops. In contexts where the high part of the
      add is explicitly masked off, this allows the mask operation to be
      eliminated. Fix the DAGCombiner to avoid undoing these transformations
      to eliminate casts on targets where the casts are no-ops.
      
      Also, this adds a new two-address lowering heuristic. Since
      two-address lowering runs before coalescing, it helps to be able to
      look through copies when deciding whether commuting and/or
      three-address conversion are profitable.
      
      Also, fix a bug in LiveInterval::MergeInClobberRanges. It didn't handle
      the case that a clobber range extended both before and beyond an
      existing live range. In that case, multiple live ranges need to be
      added. This was exposed by the new subreg coalescing code.
      
      Remove 2008-05-06-SpillerBug.ll. It was bugpoint-reduced, and the
      spiller behavior it was looking for no longer occurrs with the new
      instruction selection.

      Two coalescer fixes in one. · 64b3f9d7
      Evan Cheng authored
      1. Use the same value# to represent unknown values being merged into sub-registers.
      2. When coalescer commute an instruction and the destination is a physical register, update its sub-registers by merging in the extended ranges.
