See LICENSE.TXT for details. +// +//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// +// +// This file defines the interface for the MachineTraceMetrics analysis pass +// that estimates CPU resource usage and critical data dependency paths through +// preferred traces. This is useful for super-scalar CPUs where execution speed +// can be limited both by data dependencies and by limited execution resources. +// +// Out-of-order CPUs will often be executing instructions from multiple basic +// blocks at the same time. This makes it difficult to estimate the resource +// usage accurately in a single basic block. Resources can be estimated better +// by looking at a trace through the current basic block. +// +// For every block, the MachineTraceMetrics pass will pick a preferred trace +// that passes through the block. The trace is chosen based on loop structure, +// branch probabilities, and resource usage. The intention is to pick likely +// traces that would be the most affected by code transformations. +// +// It is expensive to compute a full arbitrary trace for every block, so to +// save some computations, traces are chosen to be convergent. This means that +// if the traces through basic blocks A and B ever cross when moving away from +// A and B, they never diverge again. This applies in both directions - If the +// traces meet above A and B, they won't diverge when going further back. +// +// Traces tend to align with loops. The trace through a block in an inner loop +// will begin at the loop entry block and end at a back edge. If there are +// nested loops, the trace may begin and end at those instead. +// +// For each trace, we compute the critical path length, which is the number of +// cycles required to execute the trace when execution is limited by data +// dependencies only. We also compute the resource height, which is the number +// of cycles required to execute all instructions in the trace when ignoring +// data dependencies. +// +// Every instruction in the current block has a slack - the number of cycles +// execution of the instruction can be delayed without extending the critical +// path. +// +//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// + +#ifndef LLVM_CODEGEN_MACHINE_TRACE_METRICS_H +#define LLVM_CODEGEN_MACHINE_TRACE_METRICS_H + +#include "llvm/ADT/SmallVector.h" +#include "llvm/CodeGen/MachineFunctionPass.h" + +namespace llvm { + +class TargetInstrInfo; +class TargetRegisterInfo; +class MachineBasicBlock; +class MachineRegisterInfo; +class MachineLoopInfo; +class MachineLoop; +class raw_ostream; + +class MachineTraceMetrics : public MachineFunctionPass { + const TargetInstrInfo *TII; + const TargetRegisterInfo *TRI; + const MachineRegisterInfo *MRI; + const MachineLoopInfo *Loops; + +public: + class Ensemble; + class Trace; + static char ID; + MachineTraceMetrics(); + void getAnalysisUsage(AnalysisUsage&) const; + bool runOnMachineFunction(MachineFunction&); + void releaseMemory(); + + friend class Ensemble; + friend class Trace; + + /// Per-basic block information that doesn't depend on the trace through the + /// block. + struct FixedBlockInfo { + /// The number of non-trivial instructions in the block. + /// Doesn't count PHI and COPY instructions that are likely to be removed. + unsigned InstrCount; + + /// True when the block contains calls. + bool HasCalls; + + FixedBlockInfo() : InstrCount(~0u), HasCalls(false) {} + + /// Returns true when resource information for this block has been computed. + bool hasResources() const { return InstrCount != ~0u; } + + /// Invalidate resource information. + void invalidate() { InstrCount = ~0u; } + }; + + /// Get the fixed resource information about MBB.
