* [SystemZ, RegAlloc] Favor 3-address instructions during instruction selection.Jonas Paulsson2019-06-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch aims to reduce spilling and register moves by using the 3-address versions of instructions per default instead of the 2-address equivalent ones. It seems that both spilling and register moves are improved noticeably generally. Regalloc hints are passed to increase conversions to 2-address instructions which are done in SystemZShortenInst.cpp (after regalloc). Since the SystemZ reg/mem instructions are 2-address (dst and lhs regs are the same), foldMemoryOperandImpl() can no longer trivially fold a spilled source register since the reg/reg instruction is now 3-address. In order to remedy this, new 3-address pseudo memory instructions are used to perform the folding only when the dst and lhs virtual registers are known to be allocated to the same physreg. In order to not let MachineCopyPropagation run and change registers on these transformed instructions (making it 3-address), a new target pass called SystemZPostRewrite.cpp is run just after VirtRegRewriter, that immediately lowers the pseudo to a target instruction. If it would have been possibe to insert a COPY instruction and change a register operand (convert to 2-address) in foldMemoryOperandImpl() while trusting that the caller (e.g. InlineSpiller) would update/repair the involved LiveIntervals, the solution involving pseudo instructions would not have been needed. This is perhaps a potential improvement (see Phabricator post). Common code changes: * A new hook TargetPassConfig::addPostRewrite() is utilized to be able to run a target pass immediately before MachineCopyPropagation. * VirtRegMap is passed as an argument to foldMemoryOperand().

* [SystemZ] Handle sub-128 vectorsUlrich Weigand2015-05-051-0/+433
The ABI allows sub-128 vectors to be passed and returned in registers, with the vector occupying the upper part of a register. We therefore want to legalize those types by widening the vector rather than promoting the elements. The patch includes some simple tests for sub-128 vectors and also tests that we can recognize various pack sequences, some of which use sub-128 vectors as temporary results. One of these forms is based on the pack sequences generated by llvmpipe when no intrinsics are used. Signed unpacks are recognized as BUILD_VECTORs whose elements are individually sign-extended. Unsigned unpacks can have the equivalent form with zero extension, but they also occur as shuffles in which some elements are zero. Based on a patch by Richard Sandiford. llvm-svn: 236525
