When using the `amdgcn.init.whole.wave` intrinsic, we add dummy VGPR arguments with the purpose of preserving their inactive lanes. The pattern may look something like this: ``` entry: call amdgcn.init.whole.wave branch to shader or tail shader: $vInactive = IMPLICIT_DEF ; Tells regalloc it's safe to use the active lanes actual code... tail: call amdgcn.cs.chain [...], implicit $vInactive ``` We should not report these VGPRs in the `.vgpr_count` metadata. This patch achieves that goal by ignoring meta instructions and calls. This should be safe since if those registers are actually used in any other context, they will be counted there. The same reasoning applies in the general case, so we don't explicitly check for the existence of `init.whole.wave`. This is a reworked version of #133242, which was reverted in #144039 and split into smaller bits.
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
