The PowerPC backend, somewhat embarrassingly, did not generate an
optimal-length sequence of instructions for a 32-bit bswap. While adding a
pattern for the bswap intrinsic to fix this would not have been terribly
difficult, doing so would not have addressed the real problem: we had been
generating poor code for many bit-permuting operations (by which I mean things
like byte-swap that permute the bits of one or more inputs around in various
ways). Here are some initial steps toward solving this deficiency.
Bit-permuting operations are represented, at the SDAG level, using ISD::ROTL,
SHL, SRL, AND and OR (mostly with constant second operands). Looking back
through these operations, we can build up a description of the bits in the
resulting value in terms of bits of one or more input values (and constant
zeros). For each bit, we compute the rotation amount from the original value,
and then group consecutive (value, rotation factor) bits into groups. Groups
sharing these attributes are then collected and sorted, and we can then
instruction select the entire permutation using a combination of masked
rotations (rlwinm), imm ands (andi/andis), and masked rotation inserts
(rlwimi).
The result is that instead of lowering an i32 bswap as:
rlwinm 5, 3, 24, 16, 23
rlwinm 4, 3, 24, 0, 7
rlwimi 4, 3, 8, 8, 15
rlwimi 5, 3, 8, 24, 31
rlwimi 4, 5, 0, 16, 31
we now produce:
rlwinm 4, 3, 8, 0, 31
rlwimi 4, 3, 24, 16, 23
rlwimi 4, 3, 24, 0, 7
and for the 'test6' example in the PowerPC/README.txt file:
unsigned test6(unsigned x) {
return ((x & 0x00FF0000) >> 16) | ((x & 0x000000FF) << 16);
}
we used to produce:
lis 4, 255
rlwinm 3, 3, 16, 0, 31
ori 4, 4, 255
and 3, 3, 4
and now we produce:
rlwinm 4, 3, 16, 24, 31
rlwimi 4, 3, 16, 8, 15
and, as a nice bonus, this fixes the FIXME in
test/CodeGen/PowerPC/rlwimi-and.ll.
This commit does not include instruction-selection for i64 operations, those

On PPC64, we end up with lots of i32 -> i64 zero extensions, not only from all
of the usual places, but also from the ABI, which specifies that values passed
are zero extended. Almost all 32-bit PPC instructions in PPC64 mode are defined
to do *something* to the higher-order bits, and for some instructions, that
action clears those bits (thus providing a zero-extended result). This is
especially common after rotate-and-mask instructions. Adding an additional
instruction to zero-extend the results of these instructions is unnecessary.
This PPCISelDAGToDAG peephole optimization examines these zero-extensions, and
looks back through their operands to see if all instructions will implicitly
zero extend their results. If so, we convert these instructions to their 64-bit
variants (which is an internal change only, the actual encoding of these
instructions is the same as the original 32-bit ones) and remove the
unnecessary zero-extension (changing where the INSERT_SUBREG instructions are
to make everything internally consistent).
llvm-svn: 224169
If we have an add (or an or that is really an add), where one operand is a
FrameIndex and the other operand is a small constant, we can combine the
lowering of the FrameIndex (which is lowered as an add of the FI and a zero
offset) with the constant operand.
Amusingly, this is an old potential improvement entry from
lib/Target/PowerPC/README.txt which had never been resolved. In short, we used
to lower:
%X = alloca { i32, i32 }
%Y = getelementptr {i32,i32}* %X, i32 0, i32 1
ret i32* %Y
as:
addi 3, 1, -8
ori 3, 3, 4
blr
and now we produce:
addi 3, 1, -4
blr
which is much more sensible.

PPCISelDAGToDAG contained existing code to lower i32 sdiv by a power-of-2 using
srawi/addze, but did not implement the i64 case. DAGCombine now contains a
callback specifically designed for this purpose (BuildSDIVPow2), and part of
the logic has been moved to an implementation of that callback. Doing this
lowering using BuildSDIVPow2 likely does not matter, compared to handling
everything in PPCISelDAGToDAG, for the positive divisor case, but the negative
divisor case, which generates an additional negation, can potentially benefit
from additional folding from DAGCombine. Now, both the i32 and the i64 cases
have been implemented.
Fixes PR20732.

When performing instruction selection for ISD::VECTOR_SHUFFLE, there
is special code for handling v2f64 and v2i64 using VSX instructions.
This code must be adjusted for little-endian. Because the two inputs
are treated as a double-wide register, we must swap their order for
little endian. To get the appropriate mask elements to use with the
big-endian biased XXPERMDI instruction, we must reverse their order
and invert the bits.
A new test is added to test the 16 possible values of the shuffle
mask. It is initially disabled for reasons specified in the test. It
is re-enabled by patch 4/4.

On PowerPC, inline asm memory operands might be expanded as 0($r), where $r is
a register containing the address. As a result, this register cannot be r0, and
we need to enforce this register subclass constraint to prevent miscompiling
the code (we'd get this constraint for free with the usual instruction
definitions, but that scheme has no knowledge of how we end up printing inline
asm memory operands, and so here we need to do it 'by hand'). We can accomplish
this within the current address-mode selection framework by introducing an
explicit COPY_TO_REGCLASS node.
Fixes PR21443.

We've long supported readcyclecounter on PPC64, but it is easier there (the
read of the 64-bit time-base register can be accomplished via a single
instruction). This now provides an implementation for PPC32 as well. On PPC32,
the time-base register is still 64 bits, but can only be read 32 bits at a time
via two separate SPRs. The ISA manual explains how to do this properly (it
involves re-reading the upper bits and looping if the counter has wrapped while
being read).
This requires PPC to implement a custom integer splitting legalization for the
READCYCLECOUNTER node, turning it into a target-specific SDAG node, which then
gets turned into a pseudo-instruction, which is then expanded to the necessary
sequence (which has three SPR reads, the comparison and the branch).
Thanks to Paul Hargrove for pointing out to me that this was still unimplemented.

Summary:
Large-model was added first. With the addition of support for multiple PIC

A previous patch enabled SELECT_VSRC and SELECT_CC_VSRC for VSX to
handle <2 x double> cases. This patch adds SELECT_VSFRC and
SELECT_CC_VSFRC to allow use of all 64 vector-scalar registers for the
f64 type when VSX is enabled. The changes are analogous to those in
the previous patch. I've added a new variant to vsx.ll to test the
code generation.
(I also cleaned up a little formatting in PPCInstrVSX.td from the
previous patch.)
llvm-svn: 220395
The tests test/CodeGen/Generic/select-cc.ll and
test/CodeGen/PowerPC/select-cc.ll both fail with VSX enabled. The
problem is that the lowering logic for the SELECT and SELECT_CC
operations doesn't currently support the VSX registers. This patch
fixes that.
In lib/Target/PowerPC/PPCInstrInfo.td, we have pseudos to handle this
for other register classes. Similar pseudos are added in
PPCInstrVSX.td (they must be there, because the "vsrc" register class
definition appears there) for the VSRC register class. The
SELECT_VSRC pseudo is then used in pattern matching for SELECT_CC.
The rest of the patch just adds logic for SELECT_VSRC wherever similar
logic appears for SELECT_VRRC.
There are no new test cases because the existing tests above test
this, along with a variant in test/CodeGen/PowerPC/vsx.ll.
After discussion with Hal, a future patch will add similar _VSFRC
variants to override f64 type handling (currently using F8RC).

r208640 was reverted because it caused a self-hosting failure on ppc64. The
underlying cause was the formation of ISD::ADD nodes with ISD::TargetConstant
operands. Because we have no patterns for 'add' taking 'timm' nodes, these are
selected as r+r add instructions (which is a miscompile). Guard against this
kind of behavior in the future by making the backend crash should this occur
(instead of silently generating invalid output).

This patch refactors code generation of vector comparisons.
This fixes a wrong code-gen bug for ISD::SETGE for floating-point types,
and improves generated code for vector comparisons in general.
Specifically, the patch moves all logic deciding how to implement vector
comparisons into getVCmpInst, which gets two extra boolean outputs
indicating to its caller whether its needs to swap the input operands
and/or negate the result of the comparison. Apart from implementing
these two modifications as directed by getVCmpInst, there is no need
to ever implement vector comparisons in any other manner; in particular,
there is never a need to perform two separate comparisons (e.g. one for
equal and one for greater-than, as code used to do before this patch).

Rafael opened http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=19893 to track non-optimal
code generation for forming a function address that is local to the compile
unit. The existing code was treating both local and non-local functions
identically.
This patch fixes the problem by properly identifying local functions and
generating the proper addis/addi code. I also noticed that Rafael's earlier
changes to correct the surrounding code in PPCISelLowering.cpp were also
needed for fast instruction selection in PPCFastISel.cpp, so this patch
fixes that code as well.
The existing test/CodeGen/PowerPC/func-addr.ll is modified to test the new
code generation. I've added a -O0 run line to test the fast-isel code as
well.

We had been using the known-zero values of the operand of the or to construct
the mask for an rlwimi; this is not quite correct, but fine when the mask is
constant. When the mask is constant, then the known zeros of the operand must
be a superset of the zeros in the mask. However, when the mask is not a
constant, then there might be bits in the operand that are not known to be zero
that, at runtime, might be zero in the mask. Therefore, we check that any bits
not known to be zero *are* known to be one in the mask. Otherwise, we can't
fold the mask with the or and shift.
This was revealed as a miscompile of
MultiSource/Benchmarks/BitBench/drop3/drop3 when I started experimenting with
constant hoisting.

That is, in the resulting ELF file my_alias, my_func and my_alias are
just 3 names pointing to offset 0 of .text. That is *not* the
semantics of IR linking. For example, linking in a
@my_alias = alias void ()* @other_func
would require the strong my_alias to override the weak one and
my_alias2 would end up pointing to other_func.
There is no way to represent that with aliases being just another

a miscompile into an error.

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.

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).

Masking operations (where only some number of the low bits are being kept) are
selected to rldicl(x, 0, mb). If x is a logical right shift (which would become
rldicl(y, 64-n, n)), we might be able to fold the two instructions together:
rldicl(rldicl(x, 64-n, n), 0, mb) -> rldicl(x, 64-n, mb) for n <= mb
The right shift is really a left rotate followed by a mask, and if the explicit
mask is a more-restrictive sub-mask of the mask implied by the shift, only one
rldicl is needed.

Previously, the DAGISel function WalkChainUsers was spotting that it
had entered already-selected territory by whether a node was a
MachineNode (amongst other things). Since it's fairly common practice
to insert MachineNodes during ISelLowering, this was not the correct
check.
Looking around, it seems that other nodes get their NodeId set to -1
upon selection, so this makes sure the same thing happens to all
MachineNodes and uses that characteristic to determine whether we
should stop looking for a loop during selection.
This should fix PR15840.

This fixes a bug (found by csmith) at -O0 where we attempt to create a RLWIMI
with an out-of-range operand. Most uses of the isRunOfOnes function are guarded
by a condition that the value is not zero. This was not true in two places, and
in both places a zero input would result in an out-of-rage MB value (= 32).
To fix this, isRunOfOnes returns false on a zero input (and I've remove one
now-redundant guard).

When accessing just a single CR register, it is always preferable to
use mfocrf instead of mfcr, if the former is available on the CPU.
Current code makes that distinction in many, but not all places
where a single CR register value is retrieved. One missing
location is PPCRegisterInfo::lowerCRSpilling.
To fix this and make this simpler in the future, this patch changes
the bulk of the back-end to always assume mfocrf is available and
simply generate it when needed.
On machines that actually do not support mfocrf, the instruction
is replaced by mfcr at the very end, in EmitInstruction.
This has the additional benefit that we no longer need the
MFCRpseud hack, since before EmitInstruction we always have
a MFOCRF instruction pattern, which already models data flow
as required.
The patch also adds the MFOCRF8 version of the instruction,
which was missing so far.
Except for the PPCRegisterInfo::lowerCRSpilling case, no change
