* Improve ext/trunc patterns on PPC64.Hal Finkel2012-06-091-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | The PPC64 backend had patterns for i32 <-> i64 extensions and truncations that would leave self-moves in the final assembly. Replacing those patterns with ones based on the SUBREG builtins yields better-looking code. Thanks to Jakob and Owen for their suggestions in this matter. llvm-svn: 158283
* Enable PPC CTR loop formation by default.Hal Finkel2012-06-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Thanks to Jakob's help, this now causes no new test suite failures! Over the entire test suite, this gives an average 1% speedup. The largest speedups are: SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc/pi - 108% SingleSource/Benchmarks/CoyoteBench/lpbench - 54% MultiSource/Benchmarks/Prolangs-C/unix-smail/unix-smail - 50% SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout/ary3 - 32% SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout-C++/matrix - 30% The largest slowdowns are: MultiSource/Benchmarks/mediabench/gsm/toast/toast - -30% MultiSource/Benchmarks/Prolangs-C/bison/mybison - -25% MultiSource/Benchmarks/BitBench/uuencode/uuencode - -22% MultiSource/Applications/d/make_dparser - -14% SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout-C++/ary - -13% In light of these slowdowns, additional profiling work is obviously needed! llvm-svn: 158223
* Disable the PPC CTR-Loops pass by default.Hal Finkel2012-06-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | The pass itself works well, but the something in the Machine* infrastructure does not understand terminators which define registers. Without the ability to use the block-placement pass, etc. this causes performance regressions (and so is turned off by default). Turning off the analysis turns off the problems with the Machine* infrastructure. llvm-svn: 158206
* Add the PPCCTRLoops pass: a PPC machine-code-level optimization pass to form ↵Hal Finkel2012-06-081-0/+78
CTR-based loop branching code. This pass is derived from the Hexagon HardwareLoops pass. The only significant enhancement over the Hexagon pass is that PPCCTRLoops will also attempt to delete the replaced add and compare operations if they are no longer otherwise used. Also, invalid preheader DebugLoc is not used. llvm-svn: 158204
