This fixes the handling of subregister extract copies. This
will allow AMDGPU to remove its implementation of
shouldRewriteCopySrc, which exists as a 10 year old workaround
to this bug. peephole-opt-fold-reg-sequence-subreg.mir will
show the expected improvement once the custom implementation
is removed.
The copy coalescing processing here is overly abstracted
from what's actually happening. Previously when visiting
coalescable copy-like instructions, we would parse the
sources one at a time and then pass the def of the root
instruction into findNextSource. This means that the
first thing the new ValueTracker constructed would do
is getVRegDef to find the instruction we are currently
processing. This adds an unnecessary step, placing
a useless entry in the RewriteMap, and required skipping
the no-op case where getNewSource would return the original
source operand. This was a problem since in the case
of a subregister extract, shouldRewriteCopySource would always
say that it is useful to rewrite and the use-def chain walk
would abort, returning the original operand. Move the process
to start looking at the source operand to begin with.
This does not fix the confused handling in the uncoalescable
copy case which is proving to be more difficult. Some currently
handled cases have multiple defs from a single source, and other
handled cases have 0 input operands. It would be simpler if
this was implemented with isCopyLikeInstr, rather than guessing
at the operand structure as it does now.
There are some improvements and some regressions. The
regressions appear to be downstream issues for the most part. One
of the uglier regressions is in PPC, where a sequence of insert_subrgs
is used to build registers. I opened #125502 to use reg_sequence instead,
which may help.
The worst regression is an absurd SPARC testcase using a <251 x fp128>,
which uses a very long chain of insert_subregs.
We need improved subregister handling locally in PeepholeOptimizer,
and other pasess like MachineCSE to fix some of the other regressions.
We should handle subregister composes and folding more indexes
into insert_subreg and reg_sequence.
Just like for regular IR we need to treat SELECT as conditionally
blocking poison in SelectionDAG. So (unless the condition itself is
poison) the result is only poison if the selected true/false value is
poison.
Thus, when doing DAG combines that turn SELECT into arithmetic/logical
operations (e.g. AND/OR) we need to make sure that the new operations
aren't more poisonous. One way to do that is to use FREEZE to make
sure the operands aren't posion.
This patch aims at fixing the kind of miscompiles reported in
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/84653
and
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/85190
Solution is to make sure that we insert FREEZE, if needed to make
the fold sound, when using the foldBoolSelectToLogic and
foldVSelectToSignBitSplatMask DAG combines.
If the shuffle mask contains no undef elements, then we can move the freeze through a shuffle node.
This requires special case handling to create a new ShuffleVectorSDNode.
Includes VECTOR_SHUFFLE support for isGuaranteedNotToBeUndefOrPoison / canCreateUndefOrPoison.
PR #66334 tried to renumber slot indexes before register allocation, but
the numbering was still affected by list entries for instructions which
had been erased. Fix this to make the register allocator's live range
length heuristics even less dependent on the history of how instructions
have been added to and removed from SlotIndexes's maps.
