This commit fixes a bug in PPCRegisterInfo::isFrameOffsetLegal that
could result in the LocalStackAlloc pass creating an MI instruction
out-of-range displacement:
%vreg17<def> = LD 33184, %vreg31; mem:LD8[%g](align=32)
%G8RC:%vreg17 G8RC_and_G8RC_NOX0:%vreg31
(In final assembler output the top bits are stripped off, resulting
in a negative offset loading from below the stack pointer.)
Common code expects the isFrameOffsetLegal routine to verify whether
adding a given offset to the offset already present in the instruction
results in a valid displacement. However, on PowerPC the routine
did not take the already present instruction offset into account.
This commit fixes isFrameOffsetLegal to add the instruction offset,
and updates a local caller (needsFrameBaseReg) to no longer add the
instruction offset itself before calling isFrameOffsetLegal.

I've run into a bug where current LLVM at -O0 (with fast-isel)
generated invalid code like:
ld 0, 20936(1) # 8-byte Folded Reload

The underlying vreg had been introduced as base register by the
Local Stack Slot Allocation pass. That register was constrained
to G8RC by PPCRegisterInfo::materializeFrameBaseRegister to match
the ADDI instruction used to set it, but it was *not* constrained
to G8RC_NOX0 to fit the *use* of the register in an address.
That should have happened in PPCRegisterInfo::resolveFrameIndex.

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.

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:

- 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).

Support for dynamic stack alignments in the PPC backend has been unfinished, in
part because it depends on dynamic stack realignment (which I only just
recently implemented fully). Now we can also support dynamic allocas with
higher than the default target stack alignment (16 bytes).
In order to round-up the requested size to the maximum requested alignment, we
need an additional register to hold the rounded-up size. We're already using one
scavenged register to hold the previous stack-pointer value (which needs to be
stored with the signal-safe stdux update), and so when we have dynamic allocas
and a large alignment, we allocate two emergency spill slots for the scavenger.

First, this changes the base-pointer implementation to remove an unnecessary
complication (and one that is incompatible with how builtin SjLj is
implemented): instead of using r31 as the base pointer when it is not needed as
a frame pointer, now the base pointer will always be r30 when needed.
Second, we introduce another pseudo register, BP, which is used just like the FP
pseudo register to refer to the base register before we know for certain what
register it will be.
Third, we now save BP into the jmp_buf, and restore r30 from that slot in
longjmp. If the function that called setjmp did not use a base pointer, then
r30 will be overwritten by the setjmp-calling-function's restore code. FP
restoration (which is restored into r31) works the same way.
git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@186545 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
This builds on some frame-lowering code that has existed since 2005 (r24224)
but was disabled in 2008 (r48188) because it needed base pointer support to
function correctly. This implementation follows the strategy suggested by Dale
Johannesen in r48188 where the following comment was added:
This does not currently work, because the delta between old and new stack
pointers is added to offsets that reference incoming parameters after the
prolog is generated, and the code that does that doesn't handle a variable
delta. You don't want to do that anyway; a better approach is to reserve
another register that retains to the incoming stack pointer, and reference
parameters relative to that.
And now we do exactly that. If we don't need a frame pointer, then we use r31
as a base pointer. If we do need a frame pointer, then we use r30 as a base
pointer. The base pointer retains the value of the stack pointer before it was
decremented in the prologue. We then use the base pointer to resolve all
negative frame indicies. The basic scheme follows that for base pointers in the
X86 backend.
We use a base pointer when we need to dynamically realign the incoming stack
pointer. This currently applies only to static objects (dynamic allocas with
large alignments, and base-pointer support in SjLj lowering will come in future
commits).

Just as with mfocrf, it is also preferable to use mtocrf instead of
mtcrf when only a single CR register is to be written.
Current code however always emits mtcrf. This probably does not matter
when using an external assembler, since the GNU assembler will in fact
automatically replace mtcrf with mtocrf when possible. It does create
inefficient code with the integrated assembler, however.
To fix this, this patch adds MTOCRF/MTOCRF8 instruction patterns and
uses those instead of MTCRF/MTCRF8 everything. Just as done in the
MFOCRF patch committed as 185556, these patterns will be converted
back to MTCRF if MTOCRF is not available on the machine.
As a side effect, this allows to modify the MTCRF pattern to accept
the full range of mask operands for the benefit of the asm parser.
git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@185561 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
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
in generated code intended.

There are a couple of (small) related changes here:
1. The printed name of the VRSAVE register has been changed from VRsave to
vrsave in order to match the name accepted by GNU binutils.
2. Support for parsing vrsave has been added to the asm parser (it seems that
there was no test case specifically covering this code, so I've added one).
3. The list of Altivec registers, which was common to all calling conventions,
has been separated out. This allows us to define the base CSR lists, and then
lists for each ABI with Altivec included. This allows SjLj, for example, to
work correctly on non-Altivec targets without using unnatural definitions of
the NoRegs CSR list.
4. VRSAVE is now always reserved on non-Darwin targets and all Altivec
registers are reserved when Altivec is disabled.
With these changes, it is now possible to compile a function containing
__builtin_unwind_init() on Linux/PPC64 with debugging information. This did not
work previously because GNU binutils assumes that all .cfi_offset offsets will
be 8-byte aligned on PPC64 (and errors out if you provide a non-8-byte-aligned
offset). This is not true for the vrsave register, however, because this
register is used only on Darwin, GCC does not bother printing a .cfi_offset
entry for it (even though there is a slot in the stack frame for it as
specified by the ABI). This change allows us to do the same: we will also not
print .cfi_offset directives for vrsave.

This is the second part of the change to always return "true"
offset values from getPreIndexedAddressParts, tackling the
case of "memrix" type operands.
This is about instructions like LD/STD that only have a 14-bit
field to encode immediate offsets, which are implicitly extended
by two zero bits by the machine, so that in effect we can access
16-bit offsets as long as they are a multiple of 4.
The PowerPC back end currently handles such instructions by
carrying the 14-bit value (as it will get encoded into the
actual machine instructions) in the machine operand fields
for such instructions. This means that those values are
in fact not the true offset, but rather the offset divided
by 4 (and then truncated to an unsigned 14-bit value).
Like in the case fixed in r182012, this makes common code
operations on such offset values not work as expected.
Furthermore, there doesn't really appear to be any strong
reason why we should encode machine operands this way.
This patch therefore changes the encoding of "memrix" type
machine operands to simply contain the "true" offset value
as a signed immediate value, while enforcing the rules that
it must fit in a 16-bit signed value and must also be a
multiple of 4.
This change must be made simultaneously in all places that
access machine operands of this type. However, just about
all those changes make the code simpler; in many cases we
can now just share the same code for memri and memrix
operands.

The old PPCCTRLoops pass, like the Hexagon pass version from which it was
derived, could only handle some simple loops in canonical form. We cannot
directly adapt the new Hexagon hardware loops pass, however, because the
Hexagon pass contains a fundamental assumption that non-constant-trip-count
loops will contain a guard, and this is not always true (the result being that
incorrect negative counts can be generated). With this commit, we replace the
pass with a late IR-level pass which makes use of SE to calculate the
backedge-taken counts and safely generate the loop-count expressions (including
any necessary max() parts). This IR level pass inserts custom intrinsics that
are lowered into the desired decrement-and-branch instructions.
The most fragile part of this new implementation is that interfering uses of
the counter register must be detected on the IR level (and, on PPC, this also
includes any indirect branches in addition to function calls). Also, to make
all of this work, we need a variant of the mtctr instruction that is marked
as having side effects. Without this, machine-code level CSE, DCE, etc.
illegally transform the resulting code. Hopefully, this can be improved
in the future.
This new pass is smaller than the original (and much smaller than the new
Hexagon hardware loops pass), and can handle many additional cases correctly.
In addition, the preheader-creation code has been copied from LoopSimplify, and
after we decide on where it belongs, this code will be refactored so that it
can be explicitly shared (making this implementation even smaller).
The new test-case files ctrloop-{le,lt,ne}.ll have been adapted from tests for
the new Hexagon pass. There are a few classes of loops that this pass does not
transform (noted by FIXMEs in the files), but these deficiencies can be
addressed within the SE infrastructure (thus helping many other passes as well).

On PowerPC, non-vector loads and stores have r+i forms; however, in functions
with large stack frames these were not being used to access slots far from the
stack pointer because such slots were out of range for the signed 16-bit
immediate offset field. This increases register pressure because we need a
separate register for each offset (when the r+r form is used). By enabling
virtual base registers, we can deal with large stack frames without unduly
increasing register pressure.

This implements SJLJ lowering on PPC, making the Clang functions
__builtin_{setjmp/longjmp} functional on PPC platforms. The implementation
strategy is similar to that on X86, with the exception that a branch-and-link
variant is used to get the right jump address. Credit goes to Bill Schmidt for
suggesting the use of the unconditional bcl form (instead of the regular bl
instruction) to limit return-address-cache pollution.
Benchmarking the speed at -O3 of:
static jmp_buf env_sigill;
void foo() {
__builtin_longjmp(env_sigill,1);

if (__builtin_setjmp(env_sigill)) {
goto done;
} else {
foo();
}
done:;

}
vs. the same code using the libc setjmp/longjmp functions on a P7 shows that
this builtin implementation is ~4x faster with Altivec enabled and ~7.25x
faster with Altivec disabled. This comparison is somewhat unfair because the
libc version must also save/restore the VSX registers which we don't yet
support.

Although there is only one Altivec VRSAVE register, it is a member of
a register class, and we need the ability to spill it. Because this
register is normally callee-preserved and handled by special code this
has never before been necessary. However, this capability will be required by
a forthcoming commit adding SjLj support.

The old code used to lower FRAMEADDR tried to replicate the logic in the real
frame-lowering code that determines whether or not the frame pointer (r31) will
be used. When it seemed as through the frame pointer would not be used, the
stack pointer (r1) was used instead. Unfortunately, because the stack size is
not yet known, this does not work. Instead, this change introduces new
always-reserved pseudo-registers (FP and FP8) that are replaced during prologue
insertion with the real frame-pointer register (either r1 or r31).
It is important that this intrinsic always return a valid frame address because
it is used by Clang to store the frame address as part of code generation for
__builtin_setjmp.

Currently the PPC r0 register is unconditionally reserved. There are two reasons
for this:
1. r0 is treated specially (as the constant 0) by certain instructions, and so
cannot be used with those instructions as a regular register.
2. r0 is used as a temporary register in the CR-register spilling process
(where, under some circumstances, we require two GPRs).
This change addresses the first reason by introducing a restricted register
class (without r0) for use by those instructions that treat r0 specially. These
register classes have a new pseudo-register, ZERO, which represents the r0-as-0
use. This has the side benefit of making the existing target code simpler (and
easier to understand), and will make it clear to the register allocator that
uses of r0 as 0 don't conflict will real uses of the r0 register.
Once the CR spilling code is improved, we'll be able to allocate r0.
Adding these extra register classes, for some reason unclear to me, causes
requests to the target to copy 32-bit registers to 64-bit registers. The
resulting code seems correct (and causes no test-suite failures), and the new
test case covers this new kind of asymmetric copy.
As r0 is still reserved, no functionality change intended.

This change cleans up two issues with Altivec register spilling:
1. The spilling code was inefficient (using two instructions, and add and a
load, when just one would do)
2. The code assumed that r0 would always be available (true for now, but this
will change)
The new code handles VR spilling just like GPR spills but forced into r+r mode.
As a result, when any VR spills are present, we must now always allocate the
register-scavenger spill slot.

As a follow-up to r158719, remove PPCRegisterInfo::avoidWriteAfterWrite.
Jakob pointed out in response to r158719 that this callback is currently unused
and so this has no effect (and the speedups that I thought that I had observed
as a result of implementing this function must have been noise).

Make requiresFrameIndexScavenging return true, and create virtual registers in
the spilling code instead of using the register scavenger directly. This makes
the target-level code simpler, and importantly, delays the scavenging until
after callee-saved register processing (which will be important for later
changes).
Also cleans up trackLivenessAfterRegAlloc (makes it inline in the header with
the other related functions). This makes it clear that it always returns true.
No functionality change intended.

Now that only the register-scavenger version of the CR spilling code remains,
we no longer need the Darwin R2 hack. Darwin can use R0 as a spare register in
any case where the System V ABI uses it (R0 is special architecturally, and so
is reserved under all common ABIs).
A few test cases needed to be updated to reflect the register-allocation changes.

This removes the -disable-ppc[32|64]-regscavenger options; the code
that uses the register scavenger has been working well (and has been the default)
for some time, and we don't need options to enable the old (broken) CR spilling code.
