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.

We had disabled use of TBAA during CodeGen (even when otherwise using AA)
because the ptrtoint/inttoptr used by CGP for address sinking caused BasicAA to
miss basic type punning that it should catch (and, thus, we'd fail to override
TBAA when we should).
However, when AA is in use during CodeGen, CGP now uses normal GEPs and
bitcasts, instead of ptrtoint/inttoptr, when doing address sinking. As a
result, BasicAA should be able to make us do the right thing in the face of
type-punning, and it seems safe to enable use of TBAA again. self-hosting seems
fine on PPC64/Linux on the P7, with TBAA enabled and -misched=shuffle.
Note: We still don't update TBAA when merging stack slots, although because
BasicAA should now catch all such cases, this is no longer a blocking issue.
Nevertheless, I plan to commit code to deal with this properly in the near
future.

The current memory-instruction optimization logic in CGP, which sinks parts of
the address computation that can be adsorbed by the addressing mode, does this
by explicitly converting the relevant part of the address computation into
IR-level integer operations (making use of ptrtoint and inttoptr). For most
targets this is currently not a problem, but for targets wishing to make use of
IR-level aliasing analysis during CodeGen, the use of ptrtoint/inttoptr is a
problem for two reasons:
1. BasicAA becomes less powerful in the face of the ptrtoint/inttoptr
2. In cases where type-punning was used, and BasicAA was used
to override TBAA, BasicAA may no longer do so. (this had forced us to disable
all use of TBAA in CodeGen; something which we can now enable again)
This (use of GEPs instead of ptrtoint/inttoptr) is not currently enabled by
default (except for those targets that use AA during CodeGen), and so aside
from some PowerPC subtargets and SystemZ, there should be no change in
behavior. We may be able to switch completely away from the ptrtoint/inttoptr
sinking on all targets, but further testing is required.
I've doubled-up on a number of existing tests that are sensitive to the
address sinking behavior (including some store-merging tests that are
sensitive to the order of the resulting ADD operations at the SDAG level).

If we have two unique values for a v2i64 build vector, this will always result
in two vector loads if we expand using shuffles. Only one is necessary.
git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@205231 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
When the loop vectorizer vectorizes code that uses the loop induction variable,
we often end up with IR like this:
%b1 = insertelement <2 x i32> undef, i32 %v, i32 0
%b2 = shufflevector <2 x i32> %b1, <2 x i32> undef, <2 x i32> zeroinitializer
%i = add <2 x i32> %b2, <i32 2, i32 3>
If the add in this example is not legal (as is the case on PPC with VSX), it
will be scalarized, and we'll end up with a number of extract_vector_elt nodes
with the vector shuffle as the input operand, and that vector shuffle is fed by
one or more build_vector nodes. By the time that vector operations are
expanded, visitEXTRACT_VECTOR_ELT will not create new extract_vector_elt by
looking through the vector shuffle (to make sure that no illegal operations are
created), and so the extract_vector_elt -> vector shuffle -> build_vector is
never simplified to an operand of the build vector.
By looking at build_vectors through a shuffle we fix this particular situation,
preventing a vector from being built, only to be deconstructed again (for the
scalarized add) -- an expensive proposition when this all needs to be done via
the stack. We probably want a more comprehensive fix here where we look back
recursively through any shuffles to any build_vectors or scalar_to_vectors,
etc. but that can come later.

When expanding EXTRACT_VECTOR_ELT and EXTRACT_SUBVECTOR using
SelectionDAGLegalize::ExpandExtractFromVectorThroughStack, we store the entire
vector and then load the piece we want. This is fine in isolation, but
generating a new store (and corresponding stack slot) for each extraction ends
up producing code of poor quality. When we scalarize a vector operation (using
SelectionDAG::UnrollVectorOp for example) we generate one EXTRACT_VECTOR_ELT
for each element in the vector. This used to generate one stored copy of the
vector for each element in the vector. Now we search the uses of the vector for
a suitable store before generating a new one, which results in much more
efficient scalarization code.

sitofp from v2i32 to v2f64 ends up generating a SIGN_EXTEND_INREG v2i64 node
(and similarly for v2i16 and v2i8). Even though there are no sign-extension (or
algebraic shifts) for v2i64 types, we can handle v2i32 sign extensions by
converting two and from v2i64. The small trick necessary here is to shift the
i32 elements into the right lanes before the i32 -> f64 step. This is because
of the big Endian nature of the system, we need the i32 portion in the high
word of the i64 elements.
For v2i16 and v2i8 we can do the same, but we first use the default Altivec
shift-based expansion from v2i16 or v2i8 to v2i32 (by casting to v4i32) and
then apply the above procedure.

v2i64 is a legal type under VSX, however we don't have native vector

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.

v2[fi]64 values need to be explicitly passed in VSX registers. This is because

As explained in r204976, because of how the allocation of VSX registers
interacts with the call-lowering code, we sometimes end up generating self VSX
copies. Specifically, things like this:
%VSL2<def> = COPY %F2, %VSL2<imp-use,kill>
(where %F2 is really a sub-register of %VSL2, and so this copy is a nop)
This adds a small cleanup pass to remove these prior to post-RA scheduling.

First, v2f64 vector extract had not been declared legal (and so the existing
patterns were not being used). Second, the patterns for that, and for
scalar_to_vector, should really be a regclass copy, not a subregister
operation, because the VSX registers directly hold both the vector and scalar data.

These operations need to be expanded during legalization so that isel does not
crash. In theory, we might be able to custom lower some of these. That,
however, would need to be follow-up work.

These instructions have access to the complete VSX register file. In addition,
they "swap" the order of the elements so that element 0 (the scalar part) comes

v2i64 needs to be a legal VSX type because it is the SetCC result type from
v2f64 comparisons. We need to expand all non-arithmetic v2i64 operations.
This fixes the lowering for v2f64 VSELECT.

With VSX there is a real vector select instruction, and so we should use it.
Note that VSELECT will still scalarize for v2f64 because the corresponding
SetCC result type (v2i64) is not currently a legal type.

The VSX instruction set has two types of FMA instructions: A-type (where the
addend is taken from the output register) and M-type (where one of the product
operands is taken from the output register). This adds a small pass that runs
just after MI scheduling (and, thus, just before register allocation) that
mutates A-type instructions (that are created during isel) into M-type
instructions when:
1. This will eliminate an otherwise-necessary copy of the addend
2. One of the product operands is killed by the instruction
The "right" moment to make this decision is in between scheduling and register
allocation, because only there do we know whether or not one of the product
operands is killed by any particular instruction. Unfortunately, this also
makes the implementation somewhat complicated, because the MIs are not in SSA
form and we need to preserve the LiveIntervals analysis.
As a simple example, if we have:
%vreg5<def> = COPY %vreg9; VSLRC:%vreg5,%vreg9
%vreg5<def,tied1> = XSMADDADP %vreg5<tied0>, %vreg17, %vreg16,
%RM<imp-use>; VSLRC:%vreg5,%vreg17,%vreg16
...
%vreg9<def,tied1> = XSMADDADP %vreg9<tied0>, %vreg17, %vreg19,
%RM<imp-use>; VSLRC:%vreg9,%vreg17,%vreg19
...
We can eliminate the copy by changing from the A-type to the
M-type instruction. This means:
%vreg5<def,tied1> = XSMADDADP %vreg5<tied0>, %vreg17, %vreg16,
%RM<imp-use>; VSLRC:%vreg5,%vreg17,%vreg16
is replaced by:
%vreg16<def,tied1> = XSMADDMDP %vreg16<tied0>, %vreg18, %vreg9,
%RM<imp-use>; VSLRC:%vreg16,%vreg18,%vreg9
and we remove: %vreg5<def> = COPY %vreg9; VSLRC:%vreg5,%vreg9

When converting a signed 32-bit integer to double-precision floating point on
hardware without a lfiwax instruction, we have to instead use a lfd followed
by fcfid. We were erroneously offsetting the address by 4 bytes in
preparation for either a lfiwax or lfiwzx when generating the lfd. This fixes
that silly error.
This was not caught in the test suite since the conversion tests were run with
-mcpu=pwr7, which implies availability of lfiwax. I've added another test
case for older hardware that checks the code we expect in the absence of
lfiwax and other flavors of fcfid. There are fewer tests in this test case
because we punt to DAG selection in more cases on older hardware. (We must
generate complex fiddly sequences in those cases, and there is marginal
benefit in duplicating that logic in fast-isel.)

These linkages were introduced some time ago, but it was never very
clear what exactly their semantics were or what they should be used
for. Some investigation found these uses:
* utf-16 strings in clang.
* non-unnamed_addr strings produced by the sanitizers.
It turns out they were just working around a more fundamental problem.
For some sections a MachO linker needs a symbol in order to split the
section into atoms, and llvm had no idea that was the case. I fixed
that in r201700 and it is now safe to use the private linkage. When
the object ends up in a section that requires symbols, llvm will use a
'l' prefix instead of a 'L' prefix and things just work.
With that, these linkages were already dead, but there was a potential
future user in the objc metadata information. I am still looking at
CGObjcMac.cpp, but at this point I am convinced that linker_private
and linker_private_weak are not what they need.
The objc uses are currently split in
* Regular symbols (no '\01' prefix). LLVM already directly provides
whatever semantics they need.
* Uses of a private name (start with "\01L" or "\01l") and private
linkage. We can drop the "\01L" and "\01l" prefixes as soon as llvm
agrees with clang on L being ok or not for a given section. I have two
patches in code review for this.
* Uses of private name and weak linkage.
The last case is the one that one could think would fit one of these
linkages. That is not the case. The semantics are
* the linker will merge these symbol by *name*.
* the linker will hide them in the final DSO.
Given that the merging is done by name, any of the private (or
internal) linkages would be a bad match. They allow llvm to rename the
symbols, and that is really not what we want. From the llvm point of
view, these objects should really be (linkonce|weak)(_odr)?.
For now, just keeping the "\01l" prefix is probably the best for these
symbols. If we one day want to have a more direct support in llvm,
IMHO what we should add is not a linkage, it is just a hidden_symbol
attribute. It would be applicable to multiple linkages. For example,
on weak it would produce the current behavior we have for objc
metadata. On internal, it would be equivalent to private (and we
should then remove private).

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/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.

The syntax for "cmpxchg" should now look something like:
cmpxchg i32* %addr, i32 42, i32 3 acquire monotonic
where the second ordering argument gives the required semantics in the case
that no exchange takes place. It should be no stronger than the first ordering
constraint and cannot be either "release" or "acq_rel" (since no store will
have taken place).

When copying an i1 value into a GPR for a vaarg call, we need to explicitly
zero-extend the i1 value (otherwise an invalid CRBIT -> GPR copy will be
generated).

On cores without fpcvt support, we cannot promote int_to_fp i1 operations,
because there is nothing to promote them to. The most straightforward
implementation of this uses a select to choose between the two possible
resulting floating-point values (and that's what is done here).

Now that the PowerPC backend can track individual CR bits as first-class
registers, we should also have a way of allocating them for inline asm
statements. Because these registers are only one bit, if an output variable is
implicitly cast to a larger integer size, we'll get an any_extend to that
larger type (this is part of the existing target-independent logic). As a
result, regardless of the size of the output type, only the first bit is
meaningful.
The constraint identifier "wc" has been chosen for this purpose. Although gcc
does not currently support allocating individual CR bits, this identifier
choice has been coordinated with the gcc PowerPC team, and will be marked as
reserved for this purpose in the gcc constraints.md file.
git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@202657 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
This generalizes the code to eliminate extra truncs/exts around i1 bit
operations to also do the same on PPC64 for i32 bit operations. This eliminates
a fairly prevalent code wart:
int foo(int a) {
return a == 5 ? 7 : 8;
}
On PPC64, because of the extension implied by the ABI, this would generate:
cmplwi 0, 3, 5
li 12, 8
li 4, 7
isel 3, 4, 12, 2
rldicl 3, 3, 0, 32
blr
where the 'rldicl 3, 3, 0, 32', the extension, is completely unnecessary. At
least for the single-BB case (which is all that the DAG combine mechanism can
handle), this unnecessary extension is no longer generated.

The PPC isel instruction can fold 0 into the first operand (thus eliminating
the need to materialize a zero-containing register when the 'true' result of
the isel is 0). When the isel is fed by a bit register operation that we can
invert, do so as part of the bit-register-operation peephole routine.

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).

We need to abort the formation of counter-register-based loops where there are
128-bit integer operations that might become function calls.

r201608 made llvm corretly handle private globals with MachO. r201622 fixed
a bug in it and r201624 and r201625 were changes for using private linkage,
assuming that llvm would do the right thing.
They all got reverted because r201608 introduced a crash in LTO. This patch
includes a fix for that. The issue was that TargetLoweringObjectFile now has
to be initialized before we can mangle names of private globals. This is
trivially true during the normal codegen pipeline (the asm printer does it),
but LTO has to do it manually.

The IR
@foo = private constant i32 42
is valid, but before this patch we would produce an invalid MachO from it. It
was invalid because it would use an L label in a section where the liker needs
the labels in order to atomize it.
One way of fixing it would be to just reject this IR in the backend, but that
would not be very front end friendly.
What this patch does is use an 'l' prefix in sections that we know the linker
requires symbols for atomizing them. This allows frontends to just use
private and not worry about which sections they go to or how the linker handles
them.
One small issue with this strategy is that now a symbol name depends on the
section, which is not available before codegen. This is not a problem in
practice. The reason is that it only happens with private linkage, which will
be ignored by the non codegen users (llvm-nm and llvm-ar).

Summary:
AsmPrinter::EmitInlineAsm() will no longer use the EmitRawText() call for
targets with mature MC support. Such targets will always parse the inline
assembly (even when emitting assembly). Targets without mature MC support
continue to use EmitRawText() for assembly output.
The hasRawTextSupport() check in AsmPrinter::EmitInlineAsm() has been replaced
with MCAsmInfo::UseIntegratedAs which when true, causes the integrated assembler
to parse inline assembly (even when emitting assembly output). UseIntegratedAs
is set to true for targets that consider any failure to parse valid assembly
to be a bug. Target specific subclasses generally enable the integrated
assembler in their constructor. The default value can be overridden with
-no-integrated-as.
All tests that rely on inline assembly supporting invalid assembly (for example,
those that use mnemonics such as 'foo' or 'hello world') have been updated to
disable the integrated assembler.
Changes since review (and last commit attempt):
- Fixed test failures that were missed due to configuration of local build.
(fixes crash.ll and a couple others).
- Fixed tests that happened to pass because the local build was on X86
(should fix 2007-12-17-InvokeAsm.ll)
- mature-mc-support.ll's should no longer require all targets to be compiled.
(should fix ARM and PPC buildbots)
- Object output (-filetype=obj and similar) now forces the integrated assembler
to be enabled regardless of default setting or -no-integrated-as.
(should fix SystemZ buildbots)
