When hosting a loop invariant instruction the resulting register must be
live in
all the basic blocks of the loop body and the killed flags of the
register must
be cleared.
Before this patch killed flags of subregister to a hoisted superregister
was not
cleared in the loop body.
This was found in an out of tree target, but the testcase
mlicm-stack-write-check.mir was modified to trigger the case.
This will currently accept the old number of bytes syntax, and convert
it to a scalar. This should be removed in the near future (I think I
converted all of the tests already, but likely missed a few).
Not sure what the exact syntax and policy should be. We can continue
printing the number of bytes for non-generic instructions to avoid
test churn and only allow non-scalar types for generic instructions.
This will currently print the LLT in parentheses, but accept parsing
the existing integers and implicitly converting to scalar. The
parentheses are a bit ugly, but the parser logic seems unable to deal
without either parentheses or some keyword to indicate the start of a
type.
Summary:
When checking if an instruction stores to a given frame index, check
that the instruction can write to memory before looking at the memory
operands list to avoid e.g. DBG_VALUE instructions that reference a
frame index preventing a load from that index from being hoisted.
