Currently isReallyTriviallyReMaterializableGeneric() implementation
prevents rematerialization on any virtual register use on the grounds
that is not a trivial rematerialization and that we do not want to
extend liveranges.
It appears that LRE logic does not attempt to extend a liverange of
a source register for rematerialization so that is not an issue.
That is checked in the LiveRangeEdit::allUsesAvailableAt().
The only non-trivial aspect of it is accounting for tied-defs which
normally represent a read-modify-write operation and not rematerializable.
The test for a tied-def situation already exists in the
/CodeGen/AMDGPU/remat-vop.mir,
test_no_remat_v_cvt_f32_i32_sdwa_dst_unused_preserve.
The change has affected ARM/Thumb, Mips, RISCV, and x86. For the targets
where I more or less understand the asm it seems to reduce spilling
(as expected) or be neutral. However, it needs a review by all targets'
specialists.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D106408
This test didn't include all test check lines, thanks to .'s in function
names. It also changed the triple to hard float to make a more
interesting test for NEON code generation.
D107068 fixed the same problem on aarch64 but the arm variant wasn't exposed in existing test coverage.
I've copied the arm64-neon-copy tests (and stripped the intrinsic test from it) for testing on arm neon builds as well.
