Summary:
Pretty mechanical follow-up for D49196.
As microarchitecture.pdf notes, "20 AMD Ryzen pipeline",
"20.8 Register renaming and out-of-order schedulers":
The integer register file has 168 physical registers of 64 bits each.
The floating point register file has 160 registers of 128 bits each.
"20.14 Partial register access":
The processor always keeps the different parts of an integer register together.
...
An instruction that writes to part of a register will therefore have a false dependence
on any previous write to the same register or any part of it.

A full replacement for GNU objcopy requires also modifying flags (i.e. --rename-section=old=new,flag1,flag2); I'd like to keep that in a separate change to keep this simple.

Summary: In Python 3, sys.stdout.write expects a string rather than bytes. In order to be able to write the bytes to stdout, we need to use the buffer directly instead. This change is borrowing the implementation for writing to stdout that cat.py uses. Note that we cannot use cat.py directly because the file we are trying to open is a gzip file.

This patch fixes the latency/throughput of LEA instructions in the BtVer2
scheduling model.
On Jaguar, A 3-operands LEA has a latency of 2cy, and a reciprocal throughput of
1. That is because it uses one cycle of SAGU followed by 1cy of ALU1. An LEA
with a "Scale" operand is also slow, and it has the same latency profile as the
3-operands LEA. An LEA16r has a latency of 3cy, and a throughput of 0.5 (i.e.
RThrouhgput of 2.0).
This patch adds a new TIIPredicate named IsThreeOperandsLEAFn to X86Schedule.td.
The tablegen backend (for instruction-info) expands that definition into this
(file X86GenInstrInfo.inc):
```
static bool isThreeOperandsLEA(const MachineInstr &MI) {
return (
(
MI.getOpcode() == X86::LEA32r
|| MI.getOpcode() == X86::LEA64r
|| MI.getOpcode() == X86::LEA64_32r
|| MI.getOpcode() == X86::LEA16r
)
&& MI.getOperand(1).isReg()
&& MI.getOperand(1).getReg() != 0
&& MI.getOperand(3).isReg()
&& MI.getOperand(3).getReg() != 0
&& (
(
MI.getOperand(4).isImm()
&& MI.getOperand(4).getImm() != 0
)
|| (MI.getOperand(4).isGlobal())
)
);
}
```
A similar method is generated in the X86_MC namespace, and included into
X86MCTargetDesc.cpp (the declaration lives in X86MCTargetDesc.h).
Back to the BtVer2 scheduling model:
A new scheduling predicate named JSlowLEAPredicate now checks if either the
instruction is a three-operands LEA, or it is an LEA with a Scale value
different than 1.
A variant scheduling class uses that new predicate to correctly select the
appropriate latency profile.

Imagine we have a file with few sections, and one of them is .foo

Problem is that when llvm-objdump is given a -section=.foo parameter

while ignoring dumping of others.

registers.
The goal of this patch is to improve the throughput analysis in llvm-mca for the
case where instructions perform partial register writes.
On x86, partial register writes are quite difficult to model, mainly because
different processors tend to implement different register merging schemes in
hardware.
When the code contains partial register writes, the IPC (instructions per
cycles) estimated by llvm-mca tends to diverge quite significantly from the
observed IPC (using perf).
Modern AMD processors (at least, from Bulldozer onwards) don't rename partial
registers. Quoting Agner Fog's microarchitecture.pdf:
" The processor always keeps the different parts of an integer register together.
For example, AL and AH are not treated as independent by the out-of-order
execution mechanism. An instruction that writes to part of a register will
therefore have a false dependence on any previous write to the same register or
any part of it."
This patch is a first important step towards improving the analysis of partial
register updates. It changes the semantic of RegisterFile descriptors in
tablegen, and teaches llvm-mca how to identify false dependences in the presence
of partial register writes (for more details: see the new code comments in
include/Target/TargetSchedule.h - class RegisterFile).
This patch doesn't address the case where a write to a part of a register is
followed by a read from the whole register. On Intel chips, high8 registers
(AH/BH/CH/DH)) can be stored in separate physical registers. However, a later
(dirty) read of the full register (example: AX/EAX) triggers a merge uOp, which
adds extra latency (and potentially affects the pipe usage).
This is a very interesting article on the subject with a very informative answer
from Peter Cordes:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45660139/how-exactly-do-partial-registers-on-haswell-skylake-perform-writing-al-seems-to
In future, the definition of RegisterFile can be extended with extra information
that may be used to identify delays caused by merge opcodes triggered by a dirty
read of a partial write.

This patch adds support for AArch64 to cfi-verify.
This required three changes to cfi-verify. First, it generalizes checking if an instruction is a trap by adding a new isTrap flag to TableGen (and defining it for x86 and AArch64). Second, the code that ensures that the operand register is not clobbered between the CFI check and the indirect call needs to allow a single dereference (in x86 this happens as part of the jump instruction). Third, we needed to ensure that return instructions are not counted as indirect branches. Technically, returns are indirect branches and can be covered by CFI, but LLVM's forward-edge CFI does not protect them, and x86 does not consider them, so we keep that behavior.
In addition, we had to improve AArch64's code to evaluate the branch target of a MCInst to handle calls where the destination is not the first operand (which it often is not).

Before revision 336728, the "mayLoad" flag for instruction (V)MOVLPSrm was
inferred directly from the "default" pattern associated with the instruction
definition.
r336728 removed special node X86Movlps, and all the patterns associated to it.
Now instruction (V)MOVLPSrm doesn't have a pattern associated to it, and the
'mayLoad/hasSideEffects' flags are left unset.
When the instruction info is emitted by tablegen, method
CodeGenDAGPatterns::InferInstructionFlags() sees that (V)MOVLPSrm doesn't have a
pattern, and flags are undefined. So, it conservatively sets the
"hasSideEffects" flag for it.
As a consequence, we were losing the 'mayLoad' flag, and we were gaining a
'hasSideEffect' flag in its place.
This patch fixes the issue (originally reported by Michael Holmen).
The mca tests show the differences in the instruction info flags. Instructions
that were affected by this problem were: MOVLPSrm/VMOVLPSrm/VMOVLPSZ128rm.

This makes easier to identify changes in the instruction info flags. It also
helps spotting potential regressions similar to the one recently introduced at
r336728.
Using the same character to mark MayLoad/MayStore/HasSideEffects is problematic
for llvm-lit. When pattern matching substrings, llvm-lit consumes tabs and
spaces. A change in position of the flag marker may not trigger a test failure.
This patch only changes the character used for flag `hasSideEffects`. The reason
why I didn't touch other flags is because I want to avoid spamming the mailing
because of the massive diff due to the numerous tests affected by this change.
In future, each instruction flag should be associated with a different character
in the Instruction Info View.

This patch modifies the Scheduler heuristic used to select the next instruction
to issue to the pipelines.
The motivating example is test X86/BtVer2/add-sequence.s, for which llvm-mca
wrongly reported an estimated IPC of 1.50. According to perf, the actual IPC for
that test should have been ~2.00.
It turns out that an IPC of 2.00 for test add-sequence.s cannot possibly be
predicted by a Scheduler that only prioritizes instructions based on their
"age". A similar issue also affected test X86/BtVer2/dependent-pmuld-paddd.s,
for which llvm-mca wrongly estimated an IPC of 0.84 instead of an IPC of 1.00.
Instructions in the ReadyQueue are now ranked based on two factors:
- The "age" of an instruction.
- The number of unique users of writes associated with an instruction.
The new logic still prioritizes older instructions over younger instructions to
minimize the pressure on the reorder buffer. However, the number of users of an
instruction now also affects the overall rank. This potentially increases the
ability of the Scheduler to extract instruction level parallelism. This patch
fixes the problem with the wrong IPC reported for test add-sequence.s and test
dependent-pmuld-paddd.s.
