On processors supporting vector registers and SIMD instructions, enable
i128 as legal type in VRs. This allows many operations to be implemented
via native instructions directly in VRs (including add, subtract,
logical operations and shifts). For a few other operations (e.g.
multiply and divide, as well as atomic operations), we need to move the
i128 value back to a GPR pair to use the corresponding instruction
there. Overall, this is still beneficial.
The patch includes the following LLVM changes:
- Enable i128 as legal type
- Set up legal operations (in SystemZInstrVector.td)
- Custom expansion for i128 add/subtract with carry
- Custom expansion for i128 comparisons and selects
- Support for moving i128 to/from GPR pairs when required
- Handle 128-bit integer constant values everywhere
- Use i128 as intrinsic operand type where appropriate
- Updated and new test cases
In addition, clang builtins are updated to reflect the intrinsic operand
type changes (which also improves compatibility with GCC).
The LIT test cases were migrated with the script provided by
Nikita Popov.
No manual changes were made. Committed without review since
no functional changes, after consultation with uweigand.
The type legalizer has by default no method of doing this bitcast other than
storing and reloading the value from stack.
This patch implements a custom lowering of this operation using extractions
of subregs (z13 and earlier using FP128 register pairs), or of vector
elements (with 'vector enhancements 1' using VR128 FP registers).
