Anonymous regions cannot overlap.
Region end markers must specify the region name. The only exception is for when
there is only one user-defined region; in that particular case, the region end
marker doesn't need to specify a name.
Incorrect region end markers are no longer ignored. Instead, the tool reports an

I've started this cleanup more several times now, but got sidetracked
elsewhere, e.g. by llvm-exegesis problems. Not this time, finally!
This is mainly cleaning up the inverse throughput values,
and a few latencies/uops, based on the llvm-exegesis measured values.
Though this is not complete by any means,
there's certainly more cleanup to be done.
The performance numbers (i've only checked by RawSpeed benchmark) aren't
really surprising - overall this *slightly* (< -1%) improves perf.

We require d/q suffixes on the memory form of these instructions to disambiguate the memory size.
We don't require it on the register forms, but need to support parsing both with and without it.
Previously we always printed the d/q suffix on the register forms, but it's redundant and

After this patch we should support the d/q for parsing, but not print it when its unneeded.

Many of our instructions have both a _Int form used by intrinsics and a form
used by other IR constructs. In the EVEX space the _Int versions usually cover
all the capabilities include broadcasting and rounding. While the other version
only covers simple register/register or register/load forms. For this reason
in EVEX, the non intrinsic form is usually marked isCodeGenOnly=1.
In the VEX encoding space we were less consistent, but usually the _Int version
was the isCodeGenOnly version.
This commit makes the VEX instructions match the EVEX instructions. This was
done by manually studying the AsmMatcher table so its possible I missed some
cases, but we should be closer now.
I'm thinking about using the isCodeGenOnly bit to simplify the EVEX2VEX
tablegen code that disambiguates the _Int and non _Int versions. Currently it
checks register class sizes and Record the memory operands come from. I have
some other changes I was looking into for D59266 that may break the memory check.
I had to make a few scheduler hacks to keep the _Int versions from being treated
differently than the non _Int version.

It makes more sense to print out the number of micro opcodes that are issued

This behavior is also consistent with the dispatch-stats: numbers from the two

llvm-svn: 357919
This patch adds an experimental stage named MicroOpQueueStage.
MicroOpQueueStage can be used to simulate a hardware micro-op queue (basically,
a decoupling queue between 'decode' and 'dispatch'). Users can specify a queue
size, as well as a optional MaxIPC (which - in the absence of a "Decoders" stage
- can be used to simulate a different throughput from the decoders).
This stage is added to the default pipeline between the EntryStage and the
DispatchStage only if PipelineOption::MicroOpQueue is different than zero. By
default, llvm-mca sets PipelineOption::MicroOpQueue to the value of hidden flag
-micro-op-queue-size.
Throughput from the decoder can be simulated via another hidden flag named
-decoder-throughput. That flag allows us to quickly experiment with different
frontend throughputs. For targets that declare a loop buffer, flag
-decoder-throughput allows users to do multiple runs, each time simulating a
different throughput from the decoders.
This stage can/will be extended in future. For example, we could add a "buffer
full" event to notify bottlenecks caused by backpressure. flag
-decoder-throughput would probably go away if in future we delegate to another
stage (DecoderStage?) the simulation of a (potentially variable) throughput from
the decoders. For now, flag -decoder-throughput is "good enough" to run some
simple experiments.

Previously we had a regular form of the instruction used when the immediate was 0-7. And _alt form that allowed the full 8 bit immediate. Codegen would always use the 0-7 form since the immediate was always checked to be in range. Assembly parsing would use the 0-7 form when a mnemonic like vpcomtrueb was used. If the immediate was specified directly the _alt form was used. The disassembler would prefer to use the 0-7 form instruction when the immediate was in range and the _alt form otherwise. This way disassembly would print the most readable form when possible.
The assembly parsing for things like vpcomtrueb relied on splitting the mnemonic into 3 pieces. A "vpcom" prefix, an immediate representing the "true", and a suffix of "b". The tablegenerated printing code would similarly print a "vpcom" prefix, decode the immediate into a string, and then print "b".
The _alt form on the other hand parsed and printed like any other instruction with no specialness.
With this patch we drop to one form and solve the disassembly printing issue by doing custom printing when the immediate is 0-7. The parsing code has been tweaked to turn "vpcomtrueb" into "vpcomb" and then the immediate for the "true" is inserted either before or after the other operands depending on at&t or intel syntax.
I'd rather not do the custom printing, but I tried using an InstAlias for each possible mnemonic for all 8 immediates for all 16 combinations of element size, signedness, and memory/register. The code emitted into printAliasInstr ended up checking the number of operands, the register class of each operand, and the immediate for all 256 aliases. This was repeated for both the at&t and intel printer. Despite a lot of common checks between all of the aliases, when compiled with clang at least this commonality was not well optimized. Nor do all the checks seem necessary. Since I want to do a similar thing for vcmpps/pd/ss/sd which have 32 immediate values and 3 encoding flavors, 3 register sizes, etc. This didn't seem to scale well for clang binary size. So custom printing seemed a better trade off.
I also considered just using the InstAlias for the matching and not the printing. But that seemed like it would add a lot of extra rows to the matcher table. Especially given that the 32 immediates for vpcmpps have 46 strings associated with them.

Rotate with explicit immediate is a single uop from Haswell on. An immediate of 1 has a dependency on the previous writer of flags, but the other immediate values do not.
The implicit rotate by 1 instruction is 2 uops. But the flags are merged after the rotate uop so the data result does not see the flag dependency. But I don't think we have any way of modeling that.

This patch adds a new flag named -bottleneck-analysis to print out information
about throughput bottlenecks.
MCA knows how to identify and classify dynamic dispatch stalls. However, it
doesn't know how to analyze and highlight kernel bottlenecks. The goal of this
patch is to teach MCA how to correlate increases in backend pressure to backend
stalls (and therefore, the loss of throughput).
From a Scheduler point of view, backend pressure is a function of the scheduler
buffer usage (i.e. how the number of uOps in the scheduler buffers changes over
time). Backend pressure increases (or decreases) when there is a mismatch
between the number of opcodes dispatched, and the number of opcodes issued in
the same cycle. Since buffer resources are limited, continuous increases in
backend pressure would eventually leads to dispatch stalls. So, there is a
strong correlation between dispatch stalls, and how backpressure changed over
time.
This patch teaches how to identify situations where backend pressure increases
due to:
- unavailable pipeline resources.
- data dependencies.
Data dependencies may delay execution of instructions and therefore increase the
time that uOps have to spend in the scheduler buffers. That often translates to
an increase in backend pressure which may eventually lead to a bottleneck.
Contention on pipeline resources may also delay execution of instructions, and
lead to a temporary increase in backend pressure.
Internally, the Scheduler classifies instructions based on whether register /
memory operands are available or not.
An instruction is marked as "ready to execute" only if data dependencies are
fully resolved.
Every cycle, the Scheduler attempts to execute all instructions that are ready
to execute. If an instruction cannot execute because of unavailable pipeline
resources, then the Scheduler internally updates a BusyResourceUnits mask with
the ID of each unavailable resource.
ExecuteStage is responsible for tracking changes in backend pressure. If backend
pressure increases during a cycle because of contention on pipeline resources,
then ExecuteStage sends a "backend pressure" event to the listeners.
That event would contain information about instructions delayed by resource
pressure, as well as the BusyResourceUnits mask.
Note that ExecuteStage also knows how to identify situations where backpressure
increased because of delays introduced by data dependencies.
The SummaryView observes "backend pressure" events and prints out a "bottleneck
report".
Example of bottleneck report:
```
Cycles with backend pressure increase [ 99.89% ]
Throughput Bottlenecks:
Resource Pressure [ 0.00% ]
Data Dependencies: [ 99.89% ]
- Register Dependencies [ 0.00% ]
- Memory Dependencies [ 99.89% ]
```
A bottleneck report is printed out only if increases in backend pressure
eventually caused backend stalls.
About the time complexity:
Time complexity is linear in the number of instructions in the
Scheduler::PendingSet.
The average slowdown tends to be in the range of ~5-6%.
For memory intensive kernels, the slowdown can be significant if flag
-noalias=false is specified. In the worst case scenario I have observed a
slowdown of ~30% when flag -noalias=false was specified.
We can definitely recover part of that slowdown if we optimize class LSUnit (by
doing extra bookkeeping to speedup queries). For now, this new analysis is
disabled by default, and it can be enabled via flag -bottleneck-analysis. Users
of MCA as a library can enable the generation of pressure events through the
constructor of ExecuteStage.

All of these instructions consume one encoded register and the other register is %st. They either write the result to %st or the encoded register. Previously we printed both arguments when the encoded register was written. And we printed one argument when the result was written to %st. For the stack popping forms the encoded register is always the destination and we didn't print both operands. This was inconsistent with gcc and objdump and just makes the output assembly code harder to read.
This patch changes things to always print both operands making us consistent with gcc and objdump. The parser should still be able to handle the single register forms just as it did before. This also matches the GNU assembler behavior.

Summary:
I'm unable to find this number in the "AMD SOG for family 15h".
llvm-exegesis measures the latencies of these instructions as `2`,
which matches the latencies specified in "AMD SOG for family 15h".
However if we look at Agner, Microarchitecture, "AMD Bulldozer, Piledriver,
Steamroller and Excavator pipeline", "Data delay between different execution
domains", the int->ivec transfer is listed as `8`..`10`cy of additional latency.
Also, Agner's "Instruction tables", for Piledriver, lists their latencies as `12`,
which is consistent with `2cy` from exegesis / AMD SOG + `10cy` transfer delay.
Additional data point comes from the fact that Agner's "Instruction tables",
for Jaguar, lists their latencies as `8`; and "AMD SOG for family 16h" does
state the `+6cy` int->ivec delay, which is consistent with instr latency of `1` or `2`.

llvm-svn: 352179
This patch adds a new ReadAdvance definition named ReadInt2Fpu.
ReadInt2Fpu allows x86 scheduling models to accurately describe delays caused by
data transfers from the integer unit to the floating point unit.
ReadInt2Fpu currently defaults to a delay of zero cycles (i.e. no delay) for all
x86 models excluding BtVer2. That means, this patch is only a functional change
for the Jaguar cpu model only.
Tablegen definitions for instructions (V)PINSR* have been updated to account for
the new ReadInt2Fpu. That read is mapped to the the GPR input operand.
On Jaguar, int-to-fpu transfers are modeled as a +6cy delay. Before this patch,
that extra delay was added to the opcode latency. In practice, the insert opcode
only executes for 1cy. Most of the actual latency is actually contributed by the
so-called operand-latency. According to the AMD SOG for family 16h, (V)PINSR*
latency is defined by expression f+1, where f is defined as a forwarding delay
from the integer unit to the fpu.
When printing instruction latency from MCA (see InstructionInfoView.cpp) and LLC
(only when flag -print-schedule is speified), we now need to account for any
extra forwarding delays. We do this by checking if scheduling classes declare
any negative ReadAdvance entries. Quoting a code comment in TargetSchedule.td:
"A negative advance effectively increases latency, which may be used for
cross-domain stalls". When computing the instruction latency for the purpose of
our scheduling tests, we now add any extra delay to the formula. This avoids
regressing existing codegen and mca schedule tests. It comes with the cost of an
extra (but very simple) hook in MCSchedModel.

This patch adds the ability to specify via tablegen which processor resources
are load/store queue resources.
A new tablegen class named MemoryQueue can be optionally used to mark resources
that model load/store queues. Information about the load/store queue is
collected at 'CodeGenSchedule' stage, and analyzed by the 'SubtargetEmitter' to
initialize two new fields in struct MCExtraProcessorInfo named `LoadQueueID` and
`StoreQueueID`. Those two fields are identifiers for buffered resources used to
describe the load queue and the store queue.
Field `BufferSize` is interpreted as the number of entries in the queue, while
the number of units is a throughput indicator (i.e. number of available pickers
for loads/stores).
At construction time, LSUnit in llvm-mca checks for the presence of extra
processor information (i.e. MCExtraProcessorInfo) in the scheduling model. If
that information is available, and fields LoadQueueID and StoreQueueID are set
to a value different than zero (i.e. the invalid processor resource index), then
LSUnit initializes its LoadQueue/StoreQueue based on the BufferSize value
declared by the two processor resources.
With this patch, we more accurately track dynamic dispatch stalls caused by the
lack of LS tokens (i.e. load/store queue full). This is also shown by the
differences in two BdVer2 tests. Stalls that were previously classified as
generic SCHEDULER FULL stalls, are not correctly classified either as "load
queue full" or "store queue full".
About the differences in the -scheduler-stats view: those differences are
expected, because entries in the load/store queue are not released at
instruction issue stage. Instead, those are released at instruction executed
stage. This is the main reason why for the modified tests, the load/store
queues gets full before PdEx is full.

This change is in preparation for a patch that fixes PR36666.
llvm-mca currently doesn't know if a buffered processor resource describes a

load/store queue entries is normally reported as a generic SCHEDULER stall. See for
example the -dispatch-stats output from the two tests modified by this patch.
In future, processor models will be able to tag processor resources that are
used to describe load/store queues. That information would then be used by
llvm-mca to correctly classify dynamic dispatch stalls caused by the lack of
tokens in the LS.

By default, llvm-mca conservatively assumes that a register operand from the
variadic sequence is both a register read and a register write. That is because
MCInstrDesc doesn't describe extra variadic operands; we don't have enough
dataflow information to tell which register operands from the variadic sequence
is a definition, and which is a use instead.
However, if a variadic instruction is flagged 'mayStore' (but not 'mayLoad'),
and it has no 'unmodeledSideEffects', then llvm-mca (very) optimistically
assumes that any register operand in the variadic sequence is a register read
only. Conversely, if a variadic instruction is marked as 'mayLoad' (but not
'mayStore'), and it has no 'unmodeledSideEffects', then llvm-mca optimistically
assumes that any extra register operand is a register definition only.
These assumptions work quite well for variadic load/store multiple instructions
defined by the ARM backend.

`llvm-mca` relies on the predicates to be based on `MCSchedPredicate` in order
to resolve the scheduling for variant instructions. Otherwise, it aborts
the building of the instruction model early.
However, the scheduling model emitter in `TableGen` gives up too soon, unless
all processors use only such predicates.
In order to allow more processors to be used with `llvm-mca`, this patch
emits scheduling transitions if any processor uses these predicates. The
transition emitted for the processors using legacy predicates is the one
specified with `NoSchedPred`, which is based on `MCSchedPredicate`.
Preferably, `llvm-mca` should instead assume a reasonable default when a
variant transition is not based on `MCSchedPredicate` for a given processor.
This issue should be revisited in the future.

This patch fixes an invalid memory read introduced by r346487.
Before this patch, partial register write had to query the latency of the
dependent full register write by calling a method on the full write descriptor.
However, if the full write is from an already retired instruction, chances are
that the EntryStage already reclaimed its memory.
In some parial register write tests, valgrind was reporting an invalid
memory read.
This change fixes the invalid memory access problem. Writes are now responsible
for tracking dependent partial register writes, and notify them in the event of
instruction issued.
That means, partial register writes no longer need to query their associated
full write to check when they are ready to execute.

In particular, according to the aut-generated CHECK lines in tests

It turns out that the reason why pressure was not correctly distributed, was
because the "resource selection strategy" object associated with PdAGU01 was not
correctly updated on the event of AGEN pipe used.
As a result, llvm-mca was not simulating a round-robin pipeline allocation for
PdAGU01. Instead, PdAGU1 was always prioritized over PdAGU0.
This patch fixes the issue; now processor resource strategy objects for
resources declaring multiple units, are correctly notified in the event of
"resource used".
llvm-svn: 346650
There are two AGU units, and per 1cy, there can be either two loads,
or a load and a store; but not two stores, or two loads and a store.
Additionally, loads shouldn't affect the store scheduler and vice versa.
(but *should* affect the PdEX scheduler.)
Required rL346545.

As noted by Andrea Di Biagio in https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39465
both the loads and stores occupy both the store and load queues.
This is clearly wrong.
llvm-svn: 346425
During review it was noted that while it appears that
the Piledriver can do two [consecutive] loads per cycle,
it can only do one store per cycle. It was suggested
that the sched model incorrectly models that,
but it was opted to fix this afterwards.
These tests show that the two consecutive loads are
modelled correctly, and one consecutive stores is not
modelled incorrectly. Unless i'm missing the point.

This patch teaches view RegisterFileStatistics how to report events for
optimizable register moves.
For each processor register file, view RegisterFileStatistics reports the
following extra information:
- Number of optimizable register moves
- Number of register moves eliminated
- Number of zero moves (i.e. register moves that propagate a zero)
- Max Number of moves eliminated per cycle.

Adding the baseline tests in a preparatory NFC commit,
so that the actual commit shows the *diff*.
Yes, i'm aware that a few of these codegen-based sched tests
are testing wrong instructions, i will fix that afterwards.

Summary:
This renames the IsParsingMSInlineAsm member variable of AsmLexer to
LexMasmIntegers and moves it up to MCAsmLexer. This is the only behavior
controlled by that variable. I added a public setter, so that it can be
set from outside or from the llvm-mc command line. We may need to
arrange things so that users can get this behavior from clang, but
that's future work.
I also put additional hex literal lexing functionality under this flag
to fix PR32973. It appears that this hex literal parsing wasn't intended
to be enabled in non-masm-style blocks.
Now, masm integers (0b1101 and 0ABCh) work in __asm blocks from clang,
but 0b label references work when using .intel_syntax in standalone .s
files.
However, 0b label references will *not* work from __asm blocks in clang.
They will work from GCC inline asm blocks, which it sounds like is
important for Crypto++ as mentioned in PR36144.
Essentially, we only lex masm literals for inline asm blobs that use
intel syntax. If the .intel_syntax directive is used inside a gnu-style
inline asm statement, masm literals will not be lexed, which is
compatible with gas and llvm-mc standalone .s assembly.
This fixes PR36144 and PR32973.

A new class named InstructionError has been added to Support.h in order to
improve the error reporting from class InstrBuilder.
The llvm-mca driver is responsible for handling InstructionError objects, and
printing them out to stderr.
The goal of this patch is to remove all the remaining error handling logic from
the library code.
In particular, this allows us to:
- Simplify the logic in InstrBuilder by removing a needless dependency from
MCInstrPrinter.
- Centralize all the error halding logic in a new function named 'runPipeline'
(see llvm-mca.cpp).
This is also a first step towards generalizing class InstrBuilder, so that in
future, we will be able to reuse its logic to also "lower" MachineInstr to
mca::Instruction objects.

This patch adds the ability to identify instructions that are "move elimination
candidates". It also allows scheduling models to describe processor register
files that allow move elimination.
A move elimination candidate is an instruction that can be eliminated at
register renaming stage.
Each subtarget can specify which instructions are move elimination candidates
with the help of tablegen class "IsOptimizableRegisterMove" (see
llvm/Target/TargetInstrPredicate.td).
For example, on X86, BtVer2 allows both GPR and MMX/SSE moves to be eliminated.
The definition of 'IsOptimizableRegisterMove' for BtVer2 looks like this:
```
def : IsOptimizableRegisterMove<[
InstructionEquivalenceClass<[
// GPR variants.
MOV32rr, MOV64rr,
// MMX variants.
MMX_MOVQ64rr,
// SSE variants.
MOVAPSrr, MOVUPSrr,
MOVAPDrr, MOVUPDrr,
MOVDQArr, MOVDQUrr,
// AVX variants.
VMOVAPSrr, VMOVUPSrr,
VMOVAPDrr, VMOVUPDrr,
VMOVDQArr, VMOVDQUrr
], CheckNot<CheckSameRegOperand<0, 1>> >
]>;
```
Definitions of IsOptimizableRegisterMove from processor models of a same
Target are processed by the SubtargetEmitter to auto-generate a target-specific
override for each of the following predicate methods:
```
bool TargetSubtargetInfo::isOptimizableRegisterMove(const MachineInstr *MI)
const;
bool MCInstrAnalysis::isOptimizableRegisterMove(const MCInst &MI, unsigned
CPUID) const;
```
By default, those methods return false (i.e. conservatively assume that there
are no move elimination candidates).
Tablegen class RegisterFile has been extended with the following information:
- The set of register classes that allow move elimination.
- Maxium number of moves that can be eliminated every cycle.
- Whether move elimination is restricted to moves from registers that are
known to be zero.
This patch is structured in three part:
A first part (which is mostly boilerplate) adds the new
'isOptimizableRegisterMove' target hooks, and extends existing register file
descriptors in MC by introducing new fields to describe properties related to
move elimination.
A second part, uses the new tablegen constructs to describe move elimination in
the BtVer2 scheduling model.
A third part, teaches llm-mca how to query the new 'isOptimizableRegisterMove'
hook to mark instructions that are candidates for move elimination. It also
teaches class RegisterFile how to describe constraints on move elimination at
PRF granularity.
llvm-mca tests for btver2 show differences before/after this patch.

These should test all the optimizable moves on Jaguar.
A follow-up patch will teach how to recognize these optimizable register moves.

Currently we hardcode instructions with ReadAfterLd if the register operands don't need to be available until the folded load has completed. This doesn't take into account the different load latencies of different memory operands (PR36957).
This patch adds a ReadAfterFold def into X86FoldableSchedWrite to replace ReadAfterLd, allowing us to specify the load latency at a scheduler class level.
I've added ReadAfterVec*Ld classes that match the XMM/Scl, XMM and YMM/ZMM WriteVecLoad classes that we currently use, we can tweak these values in future patches once this infrastructure is in place.
