The ELFv2 ABI reduces the amount of stack required to implement an
ABI-compliant function call in two ways:
* the "linkage area" is reduced from 48 bytes to 32 bytes by
eliminating two unused doublewords
* the 64-byte "parameter save area" is now optional and need not be
present in certain cases (it remains mandatory in functions with
variable arguments, and functions that have any parameter that is
passed on the stack)
The following patch implements this required changes:
- reducing the linkage area, and associated relocation of the TOC save
slot, in getLinkageSize / getTOCSaveOffset (this requires updating all
callers of these routines to pass in the isELFv2ABI flag).
- (partially) handling the case where the parameter save are is optional
This latter part requires some extra explanation: Currently, we still
always allocate the parameter save area when *calling* a function.
That is certainly always compliant with the ABI, but may cause code to
allocate stack unnecessarily. This can be addressed by a follow-on
optimization patch.
On the *callee* side, in LowerFormalArguments, we *must* track
correctly whether the ABI guarantees that the caller has allocated
the parameter save area for our use, and the patch does so. However,
there is one complication: the code that handles incoming "byval"
arguments will currently *always* write to the parameter save area,
because it has to force incoming register arguments to the stack since
it must return an *address* to implement the byval semantics.
To fix this, the patch changes the LowerFormalArguments code to write
arguments to a freshly allocated stack slot on the function's own stack
frame instead of the argument save area in those cases where that area
is not present.

This patch builds upon the two preceding MC changes to implement the
basic ELFv2 function call convention. In the ELFv1 ABI, a "function
descriptor" was associated with every function, pointing to both the
entry address and the related TOC base (and a static chain pointer
for nested functions). Function pointers would actually refer to that
descriptor, and the indirect call sequence needed to load up both entry
address and TOC base.
In the ELFv2 ABI, there are no more function descriptors, and function
pointers simply refer to the (global) entry point of the function code.
Indirect function calls simply branch to that address, after loading it
up into r12 (as required by the ABI rules for a global entry point).
Direct function calls continue to just do a "bl" to the target symbol;
this will be resolved by the linker to the local entry point of the
target function if it is local, and to a PLT stub if it is global.
That PLT stub would then load the (global) entry point address of the
final target into r12 and branch to it. Note that when performing a
local function call, r2 must be set up to point to the current TOC
base: if the target ends up local, the ABI requires that its local
entry point is called with r2 set up; if the target ends up global,
the PLT stub requires that r2 is set up.
This patch implements all LLVM changes to implement that scheme:
- No longer create a function descriptor when emitting a function
definition (in EmitFunctionEntryLabel)
- Emit two entry points *if* the function needs the TOC base (r2)
anywhere (this is done EmitFunctionBodyStart; note that this cannot
be done in EmitFunctionBodyStart because the global entry point
prologue code must be *part* of the function as covered by debug info).
- In order to make use tracking of r2 (as needed above) work correctly,
mark direct function calls as implicitly using r2.
- Implement the ELFv2 indirect function call sequence (no function
descriptors; load target address into r12).
- When creating an ELFv2 object file, emit the .abiversion 2 directive
to tell the linker to create the appropriate version of PLT stubs.

When handling an incoming byval argument, we need to possibly write
incoming registers to the stack in order to create an on-stack image
of the parameter, so we can return its address to common code.
This currently uses CreateFixedObject to access the parts of the
parameter save area where the argument is (or needs to be) stored.
However, sometimes we need to access multiple parts of that area,
e.g. to write multiple registers. The code currently uses a new
CreateFixedObject call for each of these accesses, resulting in
a patchwork of overlapping (fixed) stack objects.
This doesn't really matter in the case of fixed objects, since
any access to those turns into a fixed stackpointer + offset
address anyway. However, with the upcoming ELFv2 patches, we
may actually need to place an incoming argument into our *own*
stack frame instead of the caller's. This means we need to use
CreateStackObject instead, and we cannot have multiple overlapping
instances of those.
To make the rest of the argument handling code work equally in
both situations, this patch refactors it to always use just a
single call to CreateFixedObject, and access parts of that object
as required using address arithmetic. This way, we can in a future
patch substitute CreateStackObject without further changes.
No change to generated code intended.

The PPCTargetLowering::SelectAddressRegImm routine needs to handle
FrameIndex nodes in a special manner, by tranlating them into a
TargetFrameIndex node. This was done in most cases, but seems to
have been neglected in one path: when the input tree has an OR of
the FrameIndex with an immediate. This can happen if the FrameIndex
can be proven to be sufficiently aligned that an OR of that immediate
is equivalent to an ADD.
The missing handling of FrameIndex in that case caused the SelectionDAG
instruction selection to miss opportunities to merge the OR back into
the FrameIndex node, leading to superfluous addi/ori instructions in
the final assembler output.

This changes the implementation of atomic NAND operations
from "a & ~b" (compatible with GCC < 4.4) to actual "~(a & b)"
(compatible with GCC >= 4.4).
This is in line with the common-code and ARM back-end change
implemented in r212433.

Arguments passed as "byval align" should get the specified alignment
in the parameter save area. There was some code in PPCISelLowering.cpp
that attempted to implement this, but this didn't work correctly:
while code did update the ArgOffset value, it neglected to update
the PtrOff value (which was already computed from the old ArgOffset),
and it also neglected to update GPR_idx -- fields skipped due to
alignment in the save area must likewise be skipped in GPRs.
This patch fixes and simplifies this logic by:
- handling argument offset alignment right at the beginning
of argument processing, using a new helper routine
CalculateStackSlotAlignment (this avoids having to update
PtrOff and other derived values later on)
- not tracking GPR_idx separately, but always computing the
correct GPR_idx for each argument *from* its ArgOffset
- removing some redundant computation in LowerFormalArguments:
MinReservedArea must equal ArgOffset after argument processing,
so there's no use in computing it twice.
[This doesn't change the behavior of the current clang front-end,
since that never creates "byval align" arguments at the moment.
This will change with a follow-on patch, however.]

The argument list vector is never used after it has been passed to the

As of r211495, the only remaining users of getMinCallFrameSize are in
core ABI code (LowerFormalParameter / LowerCall). This is actually a
good thing, since the details of the parameter save area are ABI specific.
With the new ELFv2 ABI in particular, the rules defining the size of the
save area will become significantly more complex, so it wouldn't make
sense to implement those outside ABI code that has all required
information.
In preparation, this patch eliminates the getMinCallFrameSize (and
associated getMinCallArgumentsSize) routines, and inlines them into all
callers. Note that since nearly all call arguments are constant, this
allows simplifying the inlined copies to a single line everywhere.
No change in generate code expected.

As remarked in the commit message to r211493, in several places
throughout the 64-bit SVR4 ABI code there are calls to
PPCFrameLowering::getLinkageSize and getMinCallFrameSize
using an incorrect IsDarwin argument of "true".
(Some of those were made explicit by the above refactoring patch, others
have been there all along.)
This patch fixes those places to pass "false" for IsDarwin.

The PPCISelLowering.cpp routines PPCTargetLowering::setMinReservedArea and
CalculateParameterAndLinkageAreaSize are currently used as subroutines
from both 64-bit SVR4 and Darwin ABI code.
However, the two ABIs are already quite different w.r.t. AltiVec
conventions, and they will become more different when the ELFv2 ABI is
supported. Also, in general it seems better to disentangle ABI support
routines for different ABIs to avoid accidentally affecting one ABI when
intending to change only the other.
(Actually, the current code strictly speaking already contains a bug:
these routines call PPCFrameLowering::getMinCallFrameSize and
PPCFrameLowering::getLinkageSize with the IsDarwin parameter set to
"true" even on 64-bit SVR4. This bug currently has no adverse effect
since those routines always return the same for 64-bit SVR4 and 64-bit
Darwin, but it still seems wrong ... I'll fix this in a follow-up
commit shortly.)
To remove this code sharing, I'm simply inlining both routines into all
call sites (there are just two each, one for 64-bit SVR4 and one for
Darwin), and simplifying due to constant parameters where possible.
A small piece of code that *does* make sense to share is refactored into
the new routine EnsureStackAlignment, now also called from 32-bit SVR4
ABI code.
No change in generated code is expected.
llvm-svn: 211493
Current 64-bit SVR4 code seems to have some remnants of Darwin code
in AltiVec argument handing. This had the effect that AltiVec arguments
(or subsequent arguments) were not correctly placed in the parameter area
in some cases.
The correct behaviour with the 64-bit SVR4 ABI is:
- All AltiVec arguments take up space in the parameter area, just like
any other arguments, whether vararg or not.
- They are always 16-byte aligned, skipping a parameter area doubleword
(and the associated GPR, if any), if necessary.
This patch implements the correct behaviour and adds a test case.
(Verified against GCC behaviour via the ABI compat test suite.)
llvm-svn: 211492
When small arguments (structures < 8 bytes or "float") are passed in a
stack slot in the ppc64 SVR4 ABI, they must reside in the least
significant part of that slot. On BE, this means that an offset needs
to be added to the stack address of the parameter, but on LE, the least
significant part of the slot has the same address as the slot itself.
This changes the PowerPC back-end ABI code to only add the small
argument stack slot offset for BE. It also adds test cases to verify
the correct behavior on both BE and LE.
llvm-svn: 211368
When looking at the 64-bit SVR4 indirect call sequence, I noticed
an unnecessary load of r12. And indeed the code says:
// R12 must contain the address of an indirect callee.
But this is not correct; in the 64-bit SVR4 (ELFv1) ABI, there is
no need to load r12 at this point. It seems this code and comment
is a remnant of code originally shared with the Darwin ABI ...
This patch simply removes the unnecessary load.
llvm-svn: 211203
During an indirect function call sequence on the 64-bit SVR4 ABI,
generate code must load and then restore the TOC register.
This does not use a regular LOAD instruction since the TOC
register r2 is marked as reserved. Instead, the are two
special instruction patterns:
let RST = 2, DS = 2 in
def LDinto_toc: DSForm_1a<58, 0, (outs), (ins g8rc:$reg),
"ld 2, 8($reg)", IIC_LdStLD,
[(PPCload_toc i64:$reg)]>, isPPC64;
let RST = 2, DS = 10, RA = 1 in
def LDtoc_restore : DSForm_1a<58, 0, (outs), (ins),
"ld 2, 40(1)", IIC_LdStLD,
[(PPCtoc_restore)]>, isPPC64;
Note that these not only restrict the destination of the
load to r2, but they also restrict the *source* of the
load to particular address combinations. The latter is
a problem when we want to support the ELFv2 ABI, since
there the TOC save slot is no longer at 40(1).
This patch replaces those two instructions with a single
instruction pattern that only hard-codes r2 as destination,
but supports generic addresses as source. This will allow
supporting the ELFv2 ABI, and also helps generate more
efficient code for calls to absolute addresses (allowing
simplification of the ppc64-calls.ll test case).
llvm-svn: 211193
The PowerPC back-end uses BLA to implement calls to functions at
known-constant addresses, which is apparently used for certain
system routines on Darwin.
However, with the 64-bit SVR4 ABI, this is actually incorrect.
An immediate function pointer value on this platform is not
directly usable as a target address for BLA:
- in the ELFv1 ABI, the function pointer value refers to the
*function descriptor*, not the code address
- in the ELFv2 ABI, the function pointer value refers to the
global entry point, but BL(A) would only be correct when
calling the *local* entry point
This bug didn't show up since using immediate function pointer
values is not usually done in the 64-bit SVR4 ABI in the first
place. However, I ran into this issue with a certain use case
of LLVM as JIT, where immediate function pointer values were
uses to implement callbacks from JITted code to helpers in
statically compiled code.
Fixed by simply not using BLA with the 64-bit SVR4 ABI.

Various masks on shufflevector instructions are recognizable as
specific PowerPC instructions (vector pack, vector merge, etc.).
There is existing code in PPCISelLowering.cpp to recognize the correct
patterns for big endian code. The masks for these instructions are
different for little endian code due to the big-endian numbering
employed by these instructions. This patch adds the recognition code
for little endian.
I've added a new test case test/CodeGen/PowerPC/vec_shuffle_le.ll for
this. The existing recognizer test (vec_shuffle.ll) is unnecessarily
verbose and difficult to read, so I felt it was better to add a new
test rather than modify the old one.

The code in PPCTargetLowering::PerformDAGCombine() that handles
unaligned Altivec vector loads generates a lvsl followed by a vperm.
As we've seen in numerous other places, the vperm instruction has a
big-endian bias, and this is fixed for little endian by complementing
the permute control vector and swapping the input operands. In this
case the lvsl is providing the permute control vector. Rather than
generating an lvsl and a complement operation, it is sufficient to
generate an lvsr instruction instead. Thus for LE code generation we
will generate an lvsr rather than an lvsl, and swap the other input
arguments on the vperm.
The existing test/CodeGen/PowerPC/vec_misalign.ll is updated to test
the code generation for PPC64 and PPC64LE, in addition to the existing
PPC32/G5 testing.
llvm-svn: 210493
The existing code in PPCTargetLowering::LowerMUL() for multiplying two
v16i8 values assumes that vector elements are numbered in big-endian
order. For little-endian targets, the vector element numbering is
reversed, but the vmuleub, vmuloub, and vperm instructions still
assume big-endian numbering. To account for this, we must adjust the
permute control vector and reverse the order of the input registers on
the vperm instruction.
The existing test/CodeGen/PowerPC/vec_mul.ll is updated to be executed
on powerpc64 and powerpc64le targets as well as the original powerpc
(32-bit) target.
llvm-svn: 210474
This patch fixes a couple of lowering issues for little endian
PowerPC. The code for lowering BUILD_VECTOR contains a number of
optimizations that are only valid for big endian. For now, we disable
those optimizations for correctness. In the future, we will add
analogous optimizations that are correct for little endian.
When lowering a SHUFFLE_VECTOR to a VPERM operation, we again need to
make the now-familiar transformation of swapping the input operands
and complementing the permute control vector. Correctness of this
transformation is tested by the accompanying test case.
llvm-svn: 210336
In PPCISelLowering.cpp: PPCTargetLowering::LowerBUILD_VECTOR(), there
is an optimization for certain patterns to generate one or two vector
splats followed by a vector add or subtract. This operation is
represented by a VADD_SPLAT in the selection DAG. Prior to this
patch, it was possible for the VADD_SPLAT to be assigned the wrong
data type, causing incorrect code generation. This patch corrects the
problem.
Specifically, the code previously assigned the value type of the
BUILD_VECTOR node to the newly generated VADD_SPLAT node. This is
correct much of the time, but not always. The problem is that the
call to isConstantSplat() may return a SplatBitSize that is not the
same as the number of bits in the original element vector type. The
correct type to assign is a vector type with the same element bit size
as SplatBitSize.
The included test case shows an example of this, where the
BUILD_VECTOR node has a type of v16i8. The vector to be built is {0,
16, 0, 16, 0, 16, 0, 16, 0, 16, 0, 16, 0, 16, 0, 16}. isConstantSplat
detects that we can generate a splat of 16 for type v8i16, which is
the type we must assign to the VADD_SPLAT node. If we do not, we
generate a vspltisb of 8 and a vaddubm, which generates the incorrect
result {16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16,
16}. The correct code generation is a vspltish of 8 and a vadduhm.
This patch also corrected code generation for
CodeGen/PowerPC/2008-07-10-SplatMiscompile.ll, which had been marked
as an XFAIL, so we can remove the XFAIL from the test case.

The SplitIndexingFromLoad changes exposed a latent isel bug in the PowerPC64
backend. We matched an immediate offset with STWX8 even though it only
supports register offset.
The culprit is the complex-pattern predicate, SelectAddrIdx, which decides
that if the offset is not ISD::Constant it must be a register.
Many thanks to Bill Schmidt for testing this.

- On ARM/ARM64 we get a vrev because the shuffle matching code is really smart. We still unroll anything that's not v4i32 though.

- On PPC we get a vperm for v8i16 and v4i32. v2i64 is unrolled.

This is mostly a mechanical change changing all the call sites to the newer

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.
llvm-svn: 205231
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.
llvm-svn: 205146
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.
llvm-svn: 205075
v2[fi]64 values need to be explicitly passed in VSX registers. This is because
the code in TRI that finds the minimal register class given a register and a
value type will assert if given an Altivec register and a non-Altivec type.
llvm-svn: 205041
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.
llvm-svn: 204971
These operations need to be expanded during legalization so that isel does not

These instructions have access to the complete VSX register file. In addition,

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.
llvm-svn: 204828
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.

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/mafft/pairlocalalign
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.

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).
llvm-svn: 203041
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).
llvm-svn: 203015
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.
llvm-svn: 202657
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 CR bit tracking code broke PPC/Darwin; trying to get it working again...

llvm-svn: 202459
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).

For PPC64 SVR (and Darwin), the stores that take byval aggregate parameters
from registers into the stack frame had MachinePointerInfo objects with
incorrect offsets. These offsets are relative to the object itself, not to the
stack frame base.
This fixes self hosting on PPC64 when compiling with -enable-aa-sched-mi.

When generating code for shared libraries, even local calls may be
intercepted, so we need a nop after the call for the linker to fix up the
TOC. Test case adapted from the one provided in PR17354.

This is a re-commit of r190764, with an extra check to make sure that we're not
performing the transformation on illegal types (a small test case has been
added for this as well).
Original commit message:
The PPC backend uses a target-specific DAG combine to turn unaligned Altivec
loads into a permutation-based sequence when possible. Unfortunately, the
target-specific DAG combine is not always called on all loads of interest
(sometimes the routines in DAGCombine call CombineTo such that the new node and
users are not added to the worklist); allowing the combine to trigger early
(before type legalization) mitigates this problem. Because the autovectorizers
only create legal vector types, I don't expect a lot of cases where this
optimization is enabled by type legalization in practice.
llvm-svn: 190771
This is causing test-suite failures.

When a structure is passed by value, and that structure contains a vector
member, according to the PPC ABI, the structure will receive enhanced alignment
(so that the vector within the structure will always be aligned).
This should resolve PR16641.

In fast-math mode sqrt(x) is calculated using the fast expansion of the
reciprocal of the reciprocal sqrt expansion. The reciprocal and reciprocal
sqrt expansions use the associated estimate instructions along with some Newton
iterations. Unfortunately, as a result, sqrt(0) was being calculated as NaN,
which is not correct. Now we explicitly return a result of zero if the input is
zero.

This patch adds fast-isel support for calls (but not intrinsic calls
or varargs calls). It also removes a badly-formed assert. There are
some new tests just for calls, and also for folding loads into
arguments on calls to avoid extra extends.
llvm-svn: 189701
This is the next big chunk of fast-isel code. The primary purpose is
to implement selection of loads and stores, but there is a lot of
drag-along to support this. The common code to analyze addresses for
both loads and stores is substantial. It's also necessary to add the
materialization code for global values.
Related to load-store processing is the code to fold loads into
integer extends, since otherwise we generate lots of redundant
instructions. We also need to add some overrides to some FastEmit
routines to ensure we don't assign GPR 0 to a virtual register when
this would change the meaning of an instruction.
I added handling selection of a few binary arithmetic instructions, to
enable committing some test cases I wrote a while back.
Finally, ap couple of miscellaneous changes:
* I cleaned up some poor style from a previous patch in
PPCISelLowering.cpp, pointed out by David Blaikie.
* I enlarged the Addr.Offset field to avoid sign problems with 32-bit
offsets.

Modern PPC cores support a floating-point copysign instruction, and we can use
this to lower the FCOPYSIGN node (which is created from calls to the libm
copysign function). A couple of extra patterns are necessary because the
operand types of FCOPYSIGN need not agree.
llvm-svn: 188653
This is a follow-up to r187693, correcting that code to request the correct
register class. The previous version, with the wrong register class, was not
really correcting the constraints, but rather was removing them. Coincidentally,
this fixed the failing test case in r187693, but obviously created other
problems.
llvm-svn: 188407
Making use of the recently-added ISD::FROUND, which allows for custom lowering
of round(), the PPC backend will now map frin to round(). Previously, we had
been using frin to lower nearbyint() (and rint() via some custom lowering to
handle the extra fenv flags requirements), but only in fast-math mode because
frin does not tie-to-even. Several users had complained about this behavior,
and this new mapping of frin to round is certainly more appropriate (and does
not require fast-math mode).
In effect, this reverts r178362 (and part of r178337, replacing the nearbyint
mapping with the round mapping).
llvm-svn: 187960
Internally, the PowerPC backend names the 32-bit GPRs R[0-9]+, and names the
64-bit parent GPRs X[0-9]+. When matching inline assembly constraints with
explicit register names, on PPC64 when an i64 MVT has been requested, we need
to follow gcc's convention of using r[0-9]+ to refer to the 64-bit (parent)
registers.
At some point, we'll probably want to arrange things so that the generic code
in TargetLowering uses the AsmName fields declared in *RegisterInfo.td in order
to match these inline asm register constraints. If we do that, this change can
be reverted.
llvm-svn: 187693
This is the first of many upcoming patches for PowerPC fast
instruction selection support. This patch implements the minimum
necessary for a functional (but extremely limited) FastISel pass. It
allows the table-generated portions of the selector to be created and
used, but in most cases selection will fall back to the DAG selector.
None of the block terminator instructions are implemented yet, and
most interesting instructions require some special handling.
Therefore there aren't any new test cases with this patch. There will
be quite a few tests coming with future patches.
This patch adds the make/CMake support for the new code (including
tablegen -gen-fast-isel) and creates the FastISel object for PPC64 ELF
only. It instantiates the necessary virtual functions
(TargetSelectInstruction, TargetMaterializeConstant,
TargetMaterializeAlloca, tryToFoldLoadIntoMI, and FastLowerArguments),
but of these, only TargetMaterializeConstant contains any useful
implementation. This is present since the table-generated code
requires the ability to materialize integer constants for some
instructions.
This patch has been tested by building and running the
projects/test-suite code with -O0. All tests passed with the
exception of a couple of long-running tests that time out using -O0
code generation.

First, this changes the base-pointer implementation to remove an unnecessary
complication (and one that is incompatible with how builtin SjLj is
implemented): instead of using r31 as the base pointer when it is not needed as
a frame pointer, now the base pointer will always be r30 when needed.
Second, we introduce another pseudo register, BP, which is used just like the FP
pseudo register to refer to the base register before we know for certain what
register it will be.
Third, we now save BP into the jmp_buf, and restore r30 from that slot in
longjmp. If the function that called setjmp did not use a base pointer, then
r30 will be overwritten by the setjmp-calling-function's restore code. FP
restoration (which is restored into r31) works the same way.

In discussing this change with Bill Schmidt, it was decided that the original
comment about negative FIs was incorrect. We'll still exclude them for now, but
now with a more-accurate explanation.

A more complete example of the bug in PR16556 was recently provided,
showing that the previous fix was not sufficient. The previous fix is
reverted herein.
The real problem is that ReplaceNodeResults() uses LowerFP_TO_INT as
custom lowering for FP_TO_SINT during type legalization, without
checking whether the input type is handled by that routine.
LowerFP_TO_INT requires the input to be f32 or f64, so we fail when
the input is ppcf128.
I'm leaving the test case from the initial fix (r185821) in place, and
adding the new test as another crash-only check.
