This is similar to the 'tail' marker, except that it guarantees that
tail call optimization will occur. It also comes with convervative IR
verification rules that ensure that tail call optimization is possible.

PPC::isVSLDOIShuffleMask should return -1, not false, when the shuffle
predicate should be false.
Noticed by inspection; no test case (yet).
llvm-svn: 205787
If we have two unique values for a v2i64 build vector, this will always result
in two vector loads if we expand using shuffles. Only one is necessary.
llvm-svn: 205231
sitofp from v2i32 to v2f64 ends up generating a SIGN_EXTEND_INREG v2i64 node
(and similarly for v2i16 and v2i8). Even though there are no sign-extension (or
algebraic shifts) for v2i64 types, we can handle v2i32 sign extensions by
converting two and from v2i64. The small trick necessary here is to shift the
i32 elements into the right lanes before the i32 -> f64 step. This is because
of the big Endian nature of the system, we need the i32 portion in the high
word of the i64 elements.
For v2i16 and v2i8 we can do the same, but we first use the default Altivec
shift-based expansion from v2i16 or v2i8 to v2i32 (by casting to v4i32) and
then apply the above procedure.
llvm-svn: 205146
v2i64 is a legal type under VSX, however we don't have native vector
comparisons. We can handle eq/ne by casting it to an Altivec type, but
everything else must be expanded.
llvm-svn: 205106
We had stored both f64 values and v2f64, etc. values in the VSX registers. This
worked, but was suboptimal because we would always spill 16-byte values even
through we almost always had scalar 8-byte values. This resulted in an
increase in stack-size use, extra memory bandwidth, etc. To fix this, I've
added 64-bit subregisters of the Altivec registers, and combined those with the
existing scalar floating-point registers to form a class of VSX scalar
floating-point registers. The ABI code has also been enhanced to use this
register class and some other necessary improvements have been made.
llvm-svn: 205075
v2[fi]64 values need to be explicitly passed in VSX registers. This is because
the code in TRI that finds the minimal register class given a register and a
value type will assert if given an Altivec register and a non-Altivec type.
llvm-svn: 205041
First, v2f64 vector extract had not been declared legal (and so the existing
patterns were not being used). Second, the patterns for that, and for
scalar_to_vector, should really be a regclass copy, not a subregister
operation, because the VSX registers directly hold both the vector and scalar data.
llvm-svn: 204971
These operations need to be expanded during legalization so that isel does not
crash. In theory, we might be able to custom lower some of these. That,
however, would need to be follow-up work.
llvm-svn: 204963
These instructions have access to the complete VSX register file. In addition,
they "swap" the order of the elements so that element 0 (the scalar part) comes
first in memory and element 1 follows at a higher address.
llvm-svn: 204838
v2i64 needs to be a legal VSX type because it is the SetCC result type from
v2f64 comparisons. We need to expand all non-arithmetic v2i64 operations.
This fixes the lowering for v2f64 VSELECT.
llvm-svn: 204828
With VSX there is a real vector select instruction, and so we should use it.
Note that VSELECT will still scalarize for v2f64 because the corresponding
SetCC result type (v2i64) is not currently a legal type.
llvm-svn: 204801
VSX is an ISA extension supported on the POWER7 and later cores that enhances
floating-point vector and scalar capabilities. Among other things, this adds
<2 x double> support and generally helps to reduce register pressure.
The interesting part of this ISA feature is the register configuration: there
are 64 new 128-bit vector registers, the 32 of which are super-registers of the
existing 32 scalar floating-point registers, and the second 32 of which overlap
with the 32 Altivec vector registers. This makes things like vector insertion
and extraction tricky: this can be free but only if we force a restriction to
the right register subclass when needed. A new "minipass" PPCVSXCopy takes care
of this (although it could do a more-optimal job of it; see the comment about
unnecessary copies below).
Please note that, currently, VSX is not enabled by default when targeting
anything because it is not yet ready for that. The assembler and disassembler
are fully implemented and tested. However:
- CodeGen support causes miscompiles; test-suite runtime failures:
MultiSource/Benchmarks/FreeBench/distray/distray
MultiSource/Benchmarks/McCat/08-main/main
MultiSource/Benchmarks/Olden/voronoi/voronoi
MultiSource/Benchmarks/mafft/pairlocalalign
MultiSource/Benchmarks/tramp3d-v4/tramp3d-v4
SingleSource/Benchmarks/CoyoteBench/almabench
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc/matmul_f64_4x4
- The lowering currently falls back to using Altivec instructions far more
than it should. Worse, there are some things that are scalarized through the
stack that shouldn't be.
- A lot of unnecessary copies make it past the optimizers, and this needs to
be fixed.
- Many more regression tests are needed.
Normally, I'd fix these things prior to committing, but there are some
students and other contributors who would like to work this, and so it makes
sense to move this development process upstream where it can be subject to the
regular code-review procedures.
llvm-svn: 203768
When copying an i1 value into a GPR for a vaarg call, we need to explicitly
zero-extend the i1 value (otherwise an invalid CRBIT -> GPR copy will be
generated).
llvm-svn: 203041
On cores without fpcvt support, we cannot promote int_to_fp i1 operations,
because there is nothing to promote them to. The most straightforward
implementation of this uses a select to choose between the two possible
resulting floating-point values (and that's what is done here).
llvm-svn: 203015
Now that the PowerPC backend can track individual CR bits as first-class
registers, we should also have a way of allocating them for inline asm
statements. Because these registers are only one bit, if an output variable is
implicitly cast to a larger integer size, we'll get an any_extend to that
larger type (this is part of the existing target-independent logic). As a
result, regardless of the size of the output type, only the first bit is
meaningful.
The constraint identifier "wc" has been chosen for this purpose. Although gcc
does not currently support allocating individual CR bits, this identifier
choice has been coordinated with the gcc PowerPC team, and will be marked as
reserved for this purpose in the gcc constraints.md file.
llvm-svn: 202657
This generalizes the code to eliminate extra truncs/exts around i1 bit
operations to also do the same on PPC64 for i32 bit operations. This eliminates
a fairly prevalent code wart:
int foo(int a) {
return a == 5 ? 7 : 8;
}
On PPC64, because of the extension implied by the ABI, this would generate:
cmplwi 0, 3, 5
li 12, 8
li 4, 7
isel 3, 4, 12, 2
rldicl 3, 3, 0, 32
blr
where the 'rldicl 3, 3, 0, 32', the extension, is completely unnecessary. At
least for the single-BB case (which is all that the DAG combine mechanism can
handle), this unnecessary extension is no longer generated.
llvm-svn: 202600
The CR bit tracking code broke PPC/Darwin; trying to get it working again...
(the darwin11 builder, which defaults to the darwin ABI when running PPC tests,
asserted when running test/CodeGen/PowerPC/inverted-bool-compares.ll)
llvm-svn: 202459
This change enables tracking i1 values in the PowerPC backend using the
condition register bits. These bits can be treated on PowerPC as separate
registers; individual bit operations (and, or, xor, etc.) are supported.
Tracking booleans in CR bits has several advantages:
- Reduction in register pressure (because we no longer need GPRs to store
boolean values).
- Logical operations on booleans can be handled more efficiently; we used to
have to move all results from comparisons into GPRs, perform promoted
logical operations in GPRs, and then move the result back into condition
register bits to be used by conditional branches. This can be very
inefficient, because the throughput of these CR <-> GPR moves have high
latency and low throughput (especially when other associated instructions
are accounted for).
- On the POWER7 and similar cores, we can increase total throughput by using
the CR bits. CR bit operations have a dedicated functional unit.
Most of this is more-or-less mechanical: Adjustments were needed in the
calling-convention code, support was added for spilling/restoring individual
condition-register bits, and conditional branch instruction definitions taking
specific CR bits were added (plus patterns and code for generating bit-level
operations).
This is enabled by default when running at -O2 and higher. For -O0 and -O1,
where the ability to debug is more important, this feature is disabled by
default. Individual CR bits do not have assigned DWARF register numbers,
and storing values in CR bits makes them invisible to the debugger.
It is critical, however, that we don't move i1 values that have been promoted
to larger values (such as those passed as function arguments) into bit
registers only to quickly turn around and move the values back into GPRs (such
as happens when values are returned by functions). A pair of target-specific
DAG combines are added to remove the trunc/extends in:
trunc(binary-ops(binary-ops(zext(x), zext(y)), ...)
and:
zext(binary-ops(binary-ops(trunc(x), trunc(y)), ...)
In short, we only want to use CR bits where some of the i1 values come from
comparisons or are used by conditional branches or selects. To put it another
way, if we can do the entire i1 computation in GPRs, then we probably should
(on the POWER7, the GPR-operation throughput is higher, and for all cores, the
CR <-> GPR moves are expensive).

For PPC64 SVR (and Darwin), the stores that take byval aggregate parameters
from registers into the stack frame had MachinePointerInfo objects with
incorrect offsets. These offsets are relative to the object itself, not to the
stack frame base.
This fixes self hosting on PPC64 when compiling with -enable-aa-sched-mi.

This is a re-commit of r190764, with an extra check to make sure that we're not
performing the transformation on illegal types (a small test case has been
added for this as well).
Original commit message:
The PPC backend uses a target-specific DAG combine to turn unaligned Altivec
loads into a permutation-based sequence when possible. Unfortunately, the
target-specific DAG combine is not always called on all loads of interest
(sometimes the routines in DAGCombine call CombineTo such that the new node and
users are not added to the worklist); allowing the combine to trigger early
(before type legalization) mitigates this problem. Because the autovectorizers
only create legal vector types, I don't expect a lot of cases where this
optimization is enabled by type legalization in practice.
llvm-svn: 190771
This is causing test-suite failures.

When a structure is passed by value, and that structure contains a vector
member, according to the PPC ABI, the structure will receive enhanced alignment
(so that the vector within the structure will always be aligned).
This should resolve PR16641.

In fast-math mode sqrt(x) is calculated using the fast expansion of the
reciprocal of the reciprocal sqrt expansion. The reciprocal and reciprocal
sqrt expansions use the associated estimate instructions along with some Newton
iterations. Unfortunately, as a result, sqrt(0) was being calculated as NaN,
which is not correct. Now we explicitly return a result of zero if the input is
zero.
llvm-svn: 190624
This patch adds fast-isel support for calls (but not intrinsic calls
or varargs calls). It also removes a badly-formed assert. There are
some new tests just for calls, and also for folding loads into
arguments on calls to avoid extra extends.
