The requested register class priorities weren't respected
globally. Not sure why this is a target option, and not just the
expected behavior (recently added in
1a6dc92be7). This avoids an allocation
failure when many wide tuple spills are introduced. I think this is a
workaround since I would not expect the allocation priority to be
required, and only a performance hint. The allocator should be smarter
about when only a subregister needs to be spilled and restored.
This does regress a couple of degenerate store stress lit tests which
shouldn't be too important.
Previously we would use a bundle to hint the register allocator to not
overwrite the pointers in a sequence of loads to avoid breaking soft
clauses. This bundling was based on a fuzzy register pressure
heuristic, so we could not guarantee using more registers than are
really available. This would result in register allocator failing on
unsatisfiable bundles. Use a kill to artificially extend the live
ranges, so we can always succeed at register allocation even if it
means extra spills in the worst case.
This seems to capture most of the benefit of the bundle while avoiding
most of the risk presented by the bundle. However the lit tests do
show a handful of regressions. In some cases with sequences of
volatile loads, unused load components end up getting reallocated to
the next load which forces a wait between. There are also a few small
scheduling regressions where a hazard used to be avoided, and one
spill torture test which for some reason nearly doubles the stack
usage. There is also a bit of noise from leftover kills (it may make
sense for post-RA pseudos to strip all of these out).
Support for XNACK and SRAMECC is not static on some GPUs. We must be able
to differentiate between different scenarios for these dynamic subtarget
features.
The possible settings are:
- Unsupported: The GPU has no support for XNACK/SRAMECC.
- Any: Preference is unspecified. Use conservative settings that can run anywhere.
- Off: Request support for XNACK/SRAMECC Off
- On: Request support for XNACK/SRAMECC On
GCNSubtarget will track the four options based on the following criteria. If
the subtarget does not support XNACK/SRAMECC we say the setting is
"Unsupported". If no subtarget features for XNACK/SRAMECC are requested we
must support "Any" mode. If the subtarget features XNACK/SRAMECC exist in the
feature string when initializing the subtarget, the settings are "On/Off".
The defaults are updated to be conservatively correct, meaning if no setting
for XNACK or SRAMECC is explicitly requested, defaults will be used which
generate code that can be run anywhere. This corresponds to the "Any" setting.

Clustering loads has caching benefits, but as far as I know there is no
advantage to clustering stores on any AMDGPU subtargets.
The disadvantage is that it tends to increase register pressure and
restricts scheduling freedom.

If it is load cluster, we don't need to create the dependency edges(SUb->reg) from SUb to SUa
as they both depend on the base register "reg"

But if it is store cluster, we need to create it as follow shows to avoid the instruction store
depend on scheduled in-between SUb and SUa.
