      Improved tracking of value number kills. VN kills are now represented · dab7b06d

      as an (index,bool) pair. The bool flag records whether the kill is a
      PHI kill or not. This code will be used to enable splitting of live
      intervals containing PHI-kills.
      
      A slight change to live interval weights introduced an extra spill
      into lsr-code-insertion (outside the critical sections). The test 
      condition has been updated to reflect this.

      Remove special handling of implicit_def. Fix a couple more bugs in liveintervalanalysis and coalescer handling of implicit_def.
      
      Note, isUndef marker must be placed even on implicit_def def operand or else the scavenger will not ignore it. This is necessary because -O0 path does not use liveintervalanalysis, it treats implicit_def just like any other def.

      Evan Cheng authored
      Add a bit IsUndef to MachineOperand. This indicates the def / use register operand is defined by an implicit_def. That means it can def / use any register and passes (e.g. register scavenger) can feel free to ignore them.
      
      The register allocator, when it allocates a register to a virtual register defined by an implicit_def, can allocate any physical register without worrying about overlapping live ranges. It should mark all of operands of the said virtual register so later passes will do the right thing.
      
      This is not the best solution. But it should be a lot less fragile to having the scavenger try to track what is defined by implicit_def.

      creates a VarInfo struct for every register in the function, leading to
      quadratic space use.  This patch changes the BitVector to a SparseBitVector,
      which doesn't help the worst-case memory use but does reduce the actual use in
      very long functions with short-lived variables.

      Evan Cheng authored
      In some rare cases, the register allocator can spill registers but end up not utilizing registers at all. The fundamental problem is linearscan's backtracking can end up freeing more than one allocated registers. However,  reloads and restores might be folded into uses / defs and freed registers might not be used at all.
      
      VirtRegMap keeps track of allocations so it knows what's not used. As a horrible hack, the stack coloring can color spill slots with *free* registers. That is, it replace reload and spills with copies from and to the free register. It unfold instructions that load and store the spill slot and replace them with register using variants.
      
      Not yet enabled. This is part 1. More coming.

      It has finally happened. Spiller is now using live interval info. · 1a99a5f5
      Evan Cheng authored
      This fixes a very subtle bug. vr defined by an implicit_def is allowed overlap with any register since it doesn't actually modify anything. However, if it's used as a two-address use, its live range can be extended and it can be spilled. The spiller must take care not to emit a reload for the vn number that's defined by the implicit_def. This is both a correctness and performance issue.

      Evan Cheng authored
      Added a linearscan register allocation optimization. When the register allocator spill an interval with multiple uses in the same basic block, it creates a different virtual register for each of the reloads. e.g.
      
      	%reg1498<def> = MOV32rm %reg1024, 1, %reg0, 12, %reg0, Mem:LD(4,4) [sunkaddr39 + 0]
              %reg1506<def> = MOV32rm %reg1024, 1, %reg0, 8, %reg0, Mem:LD(4,4) [sunkaddr42 + 0]
              %reg1486<def> = MOV32rr %reg1506
              %reg1486<def> = XOR32rr %reg1486, %reg1498, %EFLAGS<imp-def,dead>
              %reg1510<def> = MOV32rm %reg1024, 1, %reg0, 4, %reg0, Mem:LD(4,4) [sunkaddr45 + 0]
      
      =>
      
              %reg1498<def> = MOV32rm %reg2036, 1, %reg0, 12, %reg0, Mem:LD(4,4) [sunkaddr39 + 0]
              %reg1506<def> = MOV32rm %reg2037, 1, %reg0, 8, %reg0, Mem:LD(4,4) [sunkaddr42 + 0]
              %reg1486<def> = MOV32rr %reg1506
              %reg1486<def> = XOR32rr %reg1486, %reg1498, %EFLAGS<imp-def,dead>
              %reg1510<def> = MOV32rm %reg2038, 1, %reg0, 4, %reg0, Mem:LD(4,4) [sunkaddr45 + 0]
      
      From linearscan's point of view, each of reg2036, 2037, and 2038 are separate registers, each is "killed" after a single use. The reloaded register is available and it's often clobbered right away. e.g. In thise case reg1498 is allocated EAX while reg2036 is allocated RAX. This means we end up with multiple reloads from the same stack slot in the same basic block.
      
      Now linearscan recognize there are other reloads from same SS in the same BB. So it'll "downgrade" RAX (and its aliases) after reg2036 is allocated until the next reload (reg2037) is done. This greatly increase the likihood reloads from SS are reused.
      
      This speeds up sha1 from OpenSSL by 5.8%. It is also an across the board win for SPEC2000 and 2006.

      TargetInstrDescr::findTiedToSrcOperand method silently fails for inline

      that method and also renames it to isRegTiedToUseOperand (for consistency

      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.

      Evan Cheng authored
      The coalescer does not coalesce a virtual register to a physical register if any of the physical register's sub-register live intervals overlaps with the virtual register. This is overly conservative. It prevents a extract_subreg from being coalesced away:
      
      v1024 = EDI  // not killed
            =
            = EDI
      
      One possible solution is for the coalescer to examine the sub-register live intervals in the same manner as the physical register. Another possibility is to examine defs and uses (when needed) of sub-registers. Both solutions are too expensive. For now, look for "short virtual intervals" and scan instructions to look for conflict instead.
      
      This is a small win on x86-64. e.g. It shaves 403.gcc by ~80 instructions.

      Evan Cheng authored
      Fix PR3149. If an early clobber def is a physical register and it is tied to an input operand, it effectively extends the live range of the physical register. Currently we do not have a good way to represent this.
      
      172     %ECX<def> = MOV32rr %reg1039<kill>
      180     INLINEASM <es:subl $5,$1
              sbbl $3,$0>, 10, %EAX<def>, 14, %ECX<earlyclobber,def>, 9, %EAX<kill>,
      36, <fi#0>, 1, %reg0, 0, 9, %ECX<kill>, 36, <fi#1>, 1, %reg0, 0
      188     %EAX<def> = MOV32rr %EAX<kill>
      196     %ECX<def> = MOV32rr %ECX<kill>
      204     %ECX<def> = MOV32rr %ECX<kill>
      212     %EAX<def> = MOV32rr %EAX<kill>
      220     %EAX<def> = MOV32rr %EAX
      228     %reg1039<def> = MOV32rr %ECX<kill>
      
      The early clobber operand ties ECX input to the ECX def.
      
      The live interval of ECX is represented as this:
      %reg20,inf = [46,47:1)[174,230:0)  0@174-(230) 1@46-(47)
      
      The right way to represent this is something like
      %reg20,inf = [46,47:2)[174,182:1)[181:230:0)  0@174-(182) 1@181-230 @2@46-(47)
      
      Of course that won't work since that means overlapping live ranges defined by two val#.
      
      The workaround for now is to add a bit to val# which says the val# is redefined by a early clobber def somewhere. This prevents the move at 228 from being optimized away by SimpleRegisterCoalescing::AdjustCopiesBackFrom.
