As soon as a value is spilled, also assign it to a spill slot.
For now, create a new spill slot for each spilled value. In the future,
values will be sharing spill slots of they are phi-related.
Use a new StackSlots struct to keep track of a function's stack slots
instead of just an entity map. This let's us build more internal data
structures for tracking the stack slots if necessary.
Start by adding a make_spill_slot() function that will be used by the
register allocator.
Add a StackSlotKind enumeration to help keep track of the different
kinds of stack slots supported:
- Incoming and outgoing function arguments on the stack.
- Spill slots and locals.
Change the text format syntax for declaring a stack slot to use a kind
keyword rather than just 'stack_slot'.
An instruction may have fixed operand constraints that make it
impossibly to use a single register value to satisfy two at a time.
Detect when the same value is used for multiple fixed register operands
and insert copies during the spilling pass.
Even if an argument is already in the correct register, make sure that
we detect conflicts by registering the no-op move. This also means that
the ABI argument register won't be turned into a variable for the
solver.
Add a spilling pass which lowers register pressure by assigning SSA
values to the stack. Important missing features:
- Resolve conflicts where an instruction uses the same value more than
once in incompatible ways.
- Deal with EBB arguments.
Fix bugs in the reload pass exposed by the first test case:
- Create live ranges for temporary registers.
- Set encodings on created spill and fill instructions.
The register pressure tracker now has to separate register counts: base
and transient.
The transient counts are used to track spikes of register pressure, such
as dead defs or temporary registers needed to satisfy instruction
constraints.
The base counts represent long-lived variables.
Add a Stack() class for specifying operand constraints for values on the
stack.
Add encoding recipes for RISC-V spill and fill instructions. Don't
implement the encoding recipe functions yet since we don't have the
stack slot layout yet.
This is now a generic function that can test arbitrary combinations of
instructions and EBBs for dominance.
It can handle anything that converts into an expanded program point,
including a ValueDef.
Also fix a bug if the earlier dominates() function which didn't properly
handle block layouts that were not topologically ordered.
When comparing instructions in the same EBB, behave like the RPO visits
instructions in program order.
- Add a Layout::pp_ebb() method for convenience. It gets the EBB
containing any program point.
- Add a conversion from ValueDef to ExpandedProgramPoint so it can be
used with the rpo_cmp method.

Switch to the new domtree.cfg_postorder() which returns a reference to a
pre-computed post-order instead of allocating memory and computing a new
post-order.
The reload pass inserts spill and fill instructions as needed so
instructions that operate on registers will never see a value with stack
affinity.
This is a very basic implementation, and we can't write good test cases
until we have a spilling pass.
The create_dead() methods can create a live range for a new value, and
extend_local() can extend a live range within an EBB where it is already
live.
This is enough to update liveness for new values as long as they stay
local to their EBB.
* LICM pass
* Uses loop analysis to detect loop tree
* For each loop (starting with the inner ones), create a pre-header and move there loop-invariant instructions
* An instruction is loop invariant if it does not use as argument a value defined earlier in the loop
* File tests to check LICM's correctness
* Optimized pre-header creation
If the loop already has a natural pre-header, we use it instead of creating a new one.
The natural pre-header of a loop is the only predecessor of the header it doesn't dominate.
* Updated the regex crate to 0.2.2 as per issue #88
* Added potential fix for cryptic CI error.
* Fixed incorrect handling of regex name call.
Fixes#88
The DominatorTree has existing DomNodes per EBB that can be used in lieu
of expensive HastSets for the depth-first traversal of the CFG.
Make the computed and cached post-order available for other passes
through the `cfg_postorder()` method which returns a slice.
The post-order algorithm is essentially the same as the one in
ControlFlowGraph::postorder_ebbs(), except it will never push a
successor node that has already been visited once. This is more
efficient, but it generates a different post-order.
Change the cfg_traversal tests to check this new algorithm.
* Implemented in two passes

* Make EntityList's hash and eq functions panic.
* Change Ieee32 and Ieee64 to store u32 and u64, respectively.
The spilling and reload passes need to ensure that the set of live
ranges with register affinity can always be assigned registers. The
register pressure tracker can count how many registers are in use for
each top-level register class and give guidance on the type of
registers that need to be spilled when limits are exceeded.
Pressure tracking is extra complicated for the arm32 floating point
register bank because there are multiple top-level register classes (S,
D, Q) competing for the same register units.
Avoid spreading u32 as a bitmask of register classes throughout the
code.
Enforce the limit of 32 register classes total. This could easily be
raised if needed.
The MAX_TOPRCS constant is the highest possible number of top-level
register classes in an ISA. The RegClassData.toprc field is always
smaller than this limit.
A top-level register class is one that has no sub-classes. It is
possible to have multiple top-level register classes in the same
register bank. For example, ARM's FPR bank has both D and Q top-level
register classes.
Number register classes such that all top-level register classes appear
as a contiguous sequence starting from 0. This will be used by the
register allocator when counting used registers per top-level register
class.
Cretonne's encoding recipes need to have a fixed size so we can compute
accurate branch destination addresses. Intel's instruction encoding has
a lot of variance in the number of bytes needed to encode the opcode
which leads to a number of duplicated encoding recipes that only differ
in the opcode size.
Add an Intel-specific TailEnc Python class which represents an
abstraction over a set of recipes that are identical except for the
opcode encoding. The TailEnc can then generate specific encoding recipes
for each opcode format.
The opcode format is a prefix of the recipe name, so for example, the
'rr' TailEnc will generate the 'Op1rr', 'Op2rr', 'Mp2rr' etc recipes.
The TailEnc class provides a __call__ implementation that simply takes
the sequence of opcode bytes as arguments. It then looks up the right
prefix for the opcode bytes.
