2011-08-03Enable compact region splitting by default.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
This helps generate better code in functions with high register pressure. The previous version of compact region splitting caused regressions because the regions were a bit too large. A stronger negative bias applied in r136832 fixed this problem. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@136836 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2011-08-03Be more conservative when forming compact regions.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
Apply twice the negative bias on transparent blocks when computing the compact regions. This excludes loop backedges from the region when only one of the loop blocks uses the register. Previously, we would include the backedge in the region if the loop preheader and the loop latch both used the register, but the loop header didn't. When both the header and latch blocks use the register, we still keep it live on the backedge. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@136832 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2011-07-28Reverse order of RS_Split live ranges under -compact-regions.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
There are two conflicting strategies in play: - Under high register pressure, we want to assign large live ranges first. Smaller live ranges are easier to place afterwards. - Live range splitting is guided by interference, so splitting should be deferred until interference is as realistic as possible. With the recent changes to the live range stages, and with compact regions enabled, it is less traumatic to split a live range too early. If some of the split products were too big, they can often be split again. By reversing the RS_Split order, we get this queue order: 1. Normal live ranges, large to small. 2. RS_Split live ranges, large to small. The large-to-small order improves RAGreedy's puzzle solving skills under high register pressure. It may cause a bit more iterated splitting, but we handle that better now. With this change, -compact-regions is mostly an improvement on SPEC. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@136388 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2011-07-26Add support for multi-way live range splitting.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
When splitting global live ranges, it is now possible to split for multiple destination intervals at once. Previously, we only had the main and stack intervals. Each edge bundle is assigned to a split candidate, and splitAroundRegion will insert copies between the candidate intervals and the stack interval as needed. The multi-way splitting is used to split around compact regions when enabled with -compact-regions. The best candidate register still gets all the bundles it wants, but everything outside the main interval is first split around compact regions before we create single-block intervals. Compact region splitting still causes some regressions, so it is not enabled by default. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@136186 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2011-07-26Revert to RA_Assign when a virtreg separates into components.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
When dead code elimination deletes a PHI value, the virtual register may split into multiple connected components. In that case, revert each component to the RS_Assign stage. The new components are guaranteed to be smaller (the original value numbers are distributed among the components), so this will always be making progress. The components are now allowed to evict other live ranges or be split again. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@136034 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2011-07-25Add an RS_Split2 stage used for loop prevention.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
This mechanism already exists, but the RS_Split2 stage makes it clearer. When live range splitting creates ranges that may not be making progress, they are marked RS_Split2 instead of RS_New. These ranges may be split again, but only in a way that can be proven to make progress. For local ranges, that means they must be split into ranges used by strictly fewer instructions. For global ranges, region splitting is bypassed and the RS_Split2 ranges go straight to per-block splitting. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@135912 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2011-07-25Rename live range stages to better reflect how they are used.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
The stage is used to control where a live range is going, not where it is coming from. Live ranges created by splitting will usually be marked RS_New, but some are marked RS_Spill to avoid wasting time trying to split them again. The old RS_Global and RS_Local stages are merged - they are really the same thing for local and global live ranges. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@135911 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2011-07-23Add RAGreedy::calcCompactRegion.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
This method computes the edge bundles that should be live when splitting around a compact region. This is independent of interference. The function returns false if the live range was already a compact region, or the compact region doesn't have any live bundles - it would be the same as splitting around basic blocks. Compact regions are computed using the normal spill placement code. We pretend there is interference in all live-through blocks that don't use the live range. This removes all edges from the Hopfield network used for spill placement, so it converges instantly. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@135847 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2011-07-23Prepare RAGreedy::growRegion for compact regions.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
A split candidate can have a null PhysReg which means that it doesn't map to a real interference pattern. Instead, pretend that all through blocks have interference. This makes it possible to generate compact regions where the live range doesn't go through blocks that don't use it. The live range will still be live between directly connected blocks with uses. Splitting around a compact region tends to produce a live range with a high spill weight, so it may evict a less dense live range. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@135845 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2011-07-14Reapply r135121 with a fixed copy constructor.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
Original commit message: Count references to interference cache entries. Each InterferenceCache::Cursor instance references a cache entry. A non-zero reference count guarantees that the entry won't be reused for a new register. This makes it possible to have multiple live cursors examining interference for different physregs. The total number of live cursors into a cache must be kept below InterferenceCache::getMaxCursors(). Code generation should be unaffected by this change, and it doesn't seem to affect the cache replacement strategy either. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@135130 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2011-07-08Be more aggressive about following hints.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
RAGreedy::tryAssign will now evict interference from the preferred register even when another register is free. To support this, add the EvictionCost struct that counts how many hints are broken by an eviction. We don't want to break one hint just to satisfy another. Rename canEvict to shouldEvict, and add the first bit of eviction policy that doesn't depend on spill weights: Always make room in the preferred register as long as the evictees can be split and aren't already assigned to their preferred register. Also make the CSR avoidance more accurate. When looking for a cheaper register it is OK to use a new volatile register. Only CSR aliases that have never been used before should be avoided. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@134735 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2011-07-02Use a new strategy for preventing eviction loops in RAGreedy.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
Every live range is assigned a cascade number the first time it is involved in an eviction. As the evictor, it gets a new cascade number. Every evictee is assigned the same cascade number as the evictor. Eviction is prohibited if the evictor has a lower assigned cascade number than the evictee. This means that assigned cascade numbers are monotonically increasing with every eviction, yet they are bounded by NextCascade which can only be incremented by new live ranges. Thus, infinite loops cannot happen, but eviction cascades can still be triggered by new live ranges as we want. Thanks to Andy for explaining this to me. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@134303 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2011-06-30Reapply r134047 now that the world is ready for it.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
This patch will sometimes choose live range split points next to interference instead of always splitting next to a register point. That means spill code can now appear almost anywhere, and it was necessary to fix code that didn't expect that. The difficult places were: - Between a CALL returning a value on the x87 stack and the corresponding FpPOP_RETVAL (was FpGET_ST0). Probably also near x87 inline assembly, but that didn't actually show up in testing. - Between a CALL popping arguments off the stack and the corresponding ADJCALLSTACKUP. Both are fixed now. The only place spill code can't appear is after terminators, see SplitAnalysis::getLastSplitPoint. Original commit message: Rewrite RAGreedy::splitAroundRegion, now with cool ASCII art. This function has to deal with a lot of special cases, and the old version got it wrong sometimes. In particular, it would sometimes leave multiple uses in the stack interval in a single block. That causes bad code with multiple reloads in the same basic block. The new version handles block entry and exit in a single pass. It first eliminates all the easy cases, and then goes on to create a local interval for the blocks with difficult interference. Previously, we would only create the local interval for completely isolated blocks. It can happen that the stack interval becomes completely empty because we could allocate a register in all edge bundles, and the new local intervals deal with the interference. The empty stack interval is harmless, but we need to remove a SplitKit assertion that checks for empty intervals. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@134125 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2011-06-06Simplify local live range splitting's safeguard to fix PR10070.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
When local live range splitting creates a live range with the same number of instructions as the old range, mark it as RS_Local. When such a range is seen again, require that it be split in a way that reduces the number of instructions. That guarantees we are making progress while still being able to perform 3 -> 2+3 splits as required by PR10070. This also means that the PrevSlot map is no longer needed. This was also used to estimate new spill weights, but that is no longer necessary after slotIndexes::insertMachineInstrInMaps() got the extra Late insertion argument. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@132697 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2011-05-31Simplify the eviction policy by making the failsafe explicit.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
When assigned ranges are evicted, they are put in the RS_Evicted stage and are not allowed to evict anything else. That prevents looping automatically. When evicting ranges just to get a cheaper register, use only spill weights to find the possible candidates. Avoid breaking hints for this purpose, it is not worth it. Start implementing more complex eviction heuristics, guarded by the temporary -complex-eviction flag. The initial version permits a heavier range to be evicted if it doesn't have any uses where the evicting range is live. This makes it a good candidate for live ranfge splitting. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@132358 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

Delete the Kill and Def markers in BlockInfo. They are no longer necessary when BlockInfo describes a continuous live range.

2011-05-28Add SplitAnalysis::getNumLiveBlocks().Jakob Stoklund Olesen
It is important that this function returns the same number of live blocks as countLiveBlocks(CurLI) because live range splitting uses the number of live blocks to ensure it is making progress. This is in preparation of supporting duplicate UseBlock entries for basic blocks that have a virtual register live-in and live-out, but not live-though. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@132244 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2011-05-25Add a RAGreedy::canEvict function.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
This doesn't change functionality (much), but it allows for a more fine-grained eviction policy. The current policy only compares spill weights, and that is not always the best thing to do. Spill weights are designed to serve linear scan, and they don't consider live range splitting. Add a mechanism so canEvict() can request that a live range be evicted and split/spilled. This is to avoid infinite eviction loops. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@132101 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

After a virtual register is split, update any debug user variables that resided in the old register. This ensures that the LiveDebugVariables are still correct after register allocation. This may create DBG_VALUE instructions that place a user variable in a register in parts of the function and in a stack slot in other parts. DwarfDebug currently doesn't support that. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@130998 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2011-05-03Gracefully handle invalid live ranges. Fix PR9831.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
Register coalescing can sometimes create live ranges that end in the middle of a basic block without any killing instruction. When SplitKit detects this, it will repair the live range by shrinking it to its uses. Live range splitting also needs to know about this. When the range shrinks so much that it becomes allocatable, live range splitting fails because it can't find a good split point. It is paranoid about making progress, so an allocatable range is considered an error. The coalescer should really not be creating these bad live ranges.
