LiveVariables add implicit kills to correctly track partial register kills. This works well enough and is fairly accurate. But coalescer can make it impossible to maintain these markers. e.g.
BL <ga:sss1>, %R0<kill,undef>, %S0<kill>, %R0<imp-def>, %R1<imp-def,dead>, %R2<imp-def,dead>, %R3<imp-def,dead>, %R12<imp-def,dead>, %LR<imp-def,dead>, %D0<imp-def>, ...
...
%reg1031<def> = FLDS <cp#1>, 0, 14, %reg0, Mem:LD4[ConstantPool]
...
%S0<def> = FCPYS %reg1031<kill>, 14, %reg0, %D0<imp-use,kill>
When reg1031 and S0 are coalesced, the copy (FCPYS) will be eliminated the the implicit-kill of D0 is lost. In this case it's possible to move the marker to the FLDS. But in many cases, this is not possible. Suppose
%reg1031<def> = FOO <cp#1>, %D0<imp-def>
...
%S0<def> = FCPYS %reg1031<kill>, 14, %reg0, %D0<imp-use,kill>
When FCPYS goes away, the definition of S0 is the "FOO" instruction. However, transferring the D0 implicit-kill to FOO doesn't work since it is the def of D0 itself. We need to fix this in another time by introducing a "kill" pseudo instruction to track liveness.
Disabling the assertion is not ideal, but machine verifier is doing that job now. It's important to know double-def is not a miscomputation since it means a register should be free but it's not tracked as free. It's a performance issue instead.
