* [TTI] The cost model should not assume vector casts get completely scalarizedMichael Kuperstein2016-07-061-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The cost model should not assume vector casts get completely scalarized, since on targets that have vector support, the common case is a partial split up to the legal vector size. So, when a vector cast gets split, the resulting casts end up legal and cheap. Instead of pessimistically assuming scalarization, base TTI can use the costs the concrete TTI provides for the split vector, plus a fudge factor to account for the cost of the split itself. This fudge factor is currently 1 by default, except on AMDGPU where inserts and extracts are considered free. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D21251 llvm-svn: 274642
* [PowerPC] Adjust load/store costs in PPCTTIHal Finkel2014-04-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides more realistic costs for the insert/extractelement instructions (which are load/store pairs), accounts for the cheap unaligned Altivec load sequence, and for unaligned VSX load/stores. Bad news: MultiSource/Applications/sgefa/sgefa - 35% slowdown (this will require more investigation) SingleSource/Benchmarks/McGill/queens - 20% slowdown (we no longer vectorize this, but it was a constant store that was scalarized) MultiSource/Benchmarks/FreeBench/pcompress2/pcompress2 - 2% slowdown Good news: SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout/ary3 - 54% speedup SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout-C++/ary - 40% speedup MultiSource/Benchmarks/Ptrdist/ks/ks - 35% speedup MultiSource/Benchmarks/FreeBench/neural/neural - 30% speedup MultiSource/Benchmarks/TSVC/Symbolics-flt/Symbolics-flt - 20% speedup Unfortunately, estimating the costs of the stack-based scalarization sequences is hard, and adjusting these costs is like a game of whac-a-mole :( I'll revisit this again after we have better codegen for vector extloads and truncstores and unaligned load/stores. llvm-svn: 205658
* Fix multi-register costs in BasicTTI::getCastInstrCostHal Finkel2014-04-021-0/+21
For an cast (extension, etc.), the currently logic predicts a low cost if the associated operation (keyed on the destination type) is legal (or promoted). This is not true when the number of values required to legalize the type is changing. For example, <8 x i16> being sign extended by <8 x i32> is not generically cheap on PPC with VSX, even though sign extension to v4i32 is legal, because two output v4i32 values are required compared to the single v8i16 input value, and without custom logic in the target, this conversion will scalarize. llvm-svn: 205487
