2012-08-10Give MachineTraceMetrics its own debug tag.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@161712 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-08-10Add more trace query functions.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
Trace::getResourceLength() computes the number of cycles required to execute the trace when ignoring data dependencies. The number can be compared to the critical path to estimate the trace ILP. Trace::getPHIDepth() computes the data dependency depth of a PHI in a trace successor that isn't necessarily part of the trace. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@161711 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-08-10Include loop-carried dependencies when computing instr heights.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
When a trace ends with a back-edge, include PHIs in the loop header in the height computations. This makes the critical path through a loop more accurate by including the latencies of the last instructions in the loop. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@161688 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-08-08Deal with irreducible control flow when building traces.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
We filter out MachineLoop back-edges during the trace-building PO traversals, but it is possible to have CFG cycles that aren't natural loops, and MachineLoopInfo doesn't include such cycles. Use a standard visited set to detect such CFG cycles, and completely ignore them when picking traces. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@161532 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-08-07Fix a couple of typos.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@161437 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-08-07Add trace accessor methods, implement primitive if-conversion heuristic.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
Compare the critical paths of the two traces through an if-conversion candidate. If the difference is larger than the branch brediction penalty, reject the if-conversion. If would never pay. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@161433 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-08-02Compute the critical path length through a trace.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
Whenever both instruction depths and instruction heights are known in a block, it is possible to compute the length of the critical path as max(depth+height) over the instructions in the block. The stored live-in lists make it possible to accurately compute the length of a critical path that bypasses the current (small) block. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@161197 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-08-01Compute instruction heights through a trace.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
The height on an instruction is the minimum number of cycles from the instruction is issued to the end of the trace. Heights are computed for all instructions in and below the trace center block. The method for computing heights is different from the depth computation. As we visit instructions in the trace bottom-up, heights of used instructions are pushed upwards. This way, we avoid scanning long use lists, looking for uses in the current trace. At each basic block boundary, a list of live-in registers and their minimum heights is saved in the trace block info. These live-in lists are used when restarting depth computations on a trace that converges with an already computed trace. They will also be used to accurately compute the critical path length. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@161138 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-08-01Add DataDep constructors. Explicitly check SSA form.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@161115 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-07-31Compute instruction depths through the current trace.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
Assuming infinite issue width, compute the earliest each instruction in the trace can issue, when considering the latency of data dependencies. The issue cycle is record as a 'depth' from the beginning of the trace. This is half the computation required to find the length of the critical path through the trace. Heights are next. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@161074 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-07-31Rename CT -> MTM. MachineTraceMetrics is abbreviated MTM.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@161072 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-07-30Avoid looking at stale data in verifyAnalysis().Jakob Stoklund Olesen
git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@161004 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-07-30Allow traces to enter nested loops.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
This lets traces include the final iteration of a nested loop above the center block, and the first iteration of a nested loop below the center block. We still don't allow traces to contain backedges, and traces are truncated where they would leave a loop, as seen from the center block. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@161003 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-07-30Assert that all trace candidate blocks have been visited by the PO.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
When computing a trace, all the candidates for pred/succ must have been visited. Filter out back-edges first, though. The PO traversal ignores them. Thanks to Andy for spotting this in review. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@160995 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-07-30Hook into PassManager's analysis verification.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
By overriding Pass::verifyAnalysis(), the pass contents will be verified by the pass manager. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@160994 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-07-30Add MachineInstr::isTransient().Jakob Stoklund Olesen
This is a cleaned up version of the isFree() function in MachineTraceMetrics.cpp. Transient instructions are very unlikely to produce any code in the final output. Either because they get eliminated by RegisterCoalescing, or because they are pseudo-instructions like labels and debug values. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@160977 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-07-30Add MachineTraceMetrics::verify().Jakob Stoklund Olesen
This function verifies the consistency of cached data in the MachineTraceMetrics analysis. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@160976 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-07-30Verify that the CFG hasn't changed during invalidate().Jakob Stoklund Olesen
The MachineTraceMetrics analysis must be invalidated before modifying the CFG. This will catch some of the violations of that rule. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@160969 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-07-27Add more debug output to MachineTraceMetrics.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@160905 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-07-27Keep track of the head and tail of the trace through each block.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
This makes it possible to quickly detect blocks that are outside the trace. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@160904 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-07-26Use an otherwise unused variable.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@160798 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2012-07-26Start scaffolding for a MachineTraceMetrics analysis pass.Jakob Stoklund Olesen
This is still a work in progress. Out-of-order CPUs usually execute instructions from multiple basic blocks simultaneously, so it is necessary to look at longer traces when estimating the performance effects of code transformations. The MachineTraceMetrics analysis will pick a typical trace through a given basic block and provide performance metrics for the trace. Metrics will include: - Instruction count through the trace. - Issue count per functional unit. - Critical path length, and per-instruction 'slack'. These metrics can be used to determine the performance limiting factor when executing the trace, and how it will be affected by a code transformation. Initially, this will be used by the early if-conversion pass. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@160796 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
