This is off by default, but enabled by the parser when reading a textual
IL file. Test files can still override the default to turn off
verification.
The setting enables IL verifier passes at critical points of the
compilation pipeline.
Now that we can detach and reuse all values, there is no longer a need
to create a lot of alias values during pattern expansion. Instead, reuse
the values from the source pattern when emitting instructions in the
destination pattern.
If a destination instruction produces the exact same values as a source
instruction, simply leave the values attached and replace the
instruction it. Otherwise, detach the source values, reuse them in the
expansion, and remove the source instruction afterwards.
Since results are in a value list, they don't need to form a linked
list any longer.
- Simplify make_inst_results() to create values in the natural order.
- Eliminate the last use of next_secondary_value().
- Delete unused result manipulation methods.
We don't want to distinguish between single-result and multiple-result
instructions any longer.
- Merge the simple_instruction() and complex_instruction() builder
methods into a single build() that can handle all cases.
- All format constructors now take a ctrl_type argument. Previously,
some would take a result_type argument.
- Instruction constructors no longer attempt to compute a single result
type. Just pass a ctrl_type and let the backend decide.
Fix one format constructor call in legalizer/split.rs which now takes a
ctrl_type instead of a result type.
Now we can access instruction results and arguments as well as EBB
arguments as slices.
Delete the Values iterator which was traversing the linked lists of
values. It is no longer needed.
Two new pieces of information are available for all encoding recipes:
- The size in bytes of an encoded instruction, and
- The range of a branch encoded with the recipe, if any.
In the meta language, EncRecipe takes two new constructor arguments. The
size is required for all encodings and branch_range is required for all
recipes used to encode branches.
The tables returned by recipe_names() and recipe_constraints() are now
collected into an EncInfo struct that is available from
TargetIsa::encoding_info(). This is equivalent to the register bank
tables available fro TargetIsa::register_info().
This cleans of the TargetIsa interface and makes it easier to add
encoding-related information.
Not all br_icmp opcodes are present in the ISA. The missing ones can be
reached by commuting operands.
Don't attempt to encode EBB offsets yet. For now just emit an EBB
relocation for the branch instruction.
This instruction behaves like icmp fused with brnz, and it can be used
to represent fused compare+branch instruction on Intel when optimizing
for macro-op fusion.
RISC-V provides compare-and-branch instructions directly, and it is
needed there too.
Compare a scalar integer to an immediate constant. Both Intel and RISC-V
ISAs have this operation.
This requires the addition of a new IntCompareImm instruction format.
When defining an instruction encoding, allow part of the instruction
predicate to be provided as operands on the instruction opcode:
icmp.i32(intcc.ult, x, y)
This generates an instruction predicate that checks
IntCompare.cond == IntCC::UnsignedLessThan
Compute an instruction predicate from any constant values given as
arguments for the immediate operands in an instruction pattern.
Allows for patterns like icmp.i32(intcc.ugt, x, y) or iadd_imm.i32(x, 1)
Trap these predicates in the legalizer code generator since we can't
actually handle them yet.
Consolidate the imm_members and imm_kinds into this list so the
FormatField is the single definition of these properties.
This makes it easier to access the precomputed FormatFields
parametrically, avoiding going through getattr().
This is better for type checking too.
The meta language patterns sometimes need to refer to specific values of
enumerated immediate operands. The dot syntax provides a namespaced,
typed way of doing that: icmp(intcc.ult, a, x).
Add an ast.Enumerator class for representing this kind of AST leaf node.
Add value definitions for the intcc and floatcc immediate operand kinds.
These two instructions make sense for vector types by simply performing
the same operation on each lane, like most other vector operations.
Problem found by @angusholder's verifier.
The carry and borrow values are boolean, so we have to convert them to
an integer type with bint(c) before we can add them to the result.
Also tweak the default legalizer action for unsupported types: Only
attempt a narrowing pattern for lane types > 32 bits.
This was found by @angusholder's new type checks in the verifier.
* Verify that a recomputed dominator tree is identical to the existing one.
* The verifier now typechecks instruction results and arguments.
* The verifier now typechecks instruction results and arguments.
* The verifier now typechecks instruction results and arguments.
* Added `inst_{fixed,variable}_args` accessor functions.
* Improved error messages in verifier.
* Type check return statements against the function signature.
Use the meta language encoding recipes to generate an emit_inst()
function for each ISA. The generated calls into recipe_*() functions
that must be implemented by hand.
Implement recipe_*() functions for the RISC-V recipes.
Add the TargetIsa::emit_inst() entry point which emits an instruction to
a CodeSink trait object.
When the legalizer splits a value into halves, it would previously stop
if the value was an EBB argument. With this change, we also split EBB
arguments and iteratively split arguments on branches to the EBB.
The iterative splitting stops when we hit the entry block arguments or
an instruction that isn't one of the concatenation instructions.
Legalizing some instructions may require modifications to the control
flow graph, and some operations need to use the CFG analysis.
The CFG reference is threaded through all the legalization functions to
reach the generated expansion functions as well as the legalizer::split
module where it will be used first.
The legalizer often splits values into parts with the vsplit and
isplit_lohi instructions. Avoid doing that for values that are already
defined by the corresponding concatenation instructions.
This reduces the number of instructions created during legalization, and
it simplifies later optimizations. A number of dead concatenation
instructions are left behind. They can be trivially cleaned up by a dead
code elimination pass.
Instead, just return the first of the detached values, and provide a
next_secondary_result() method for traversing the list.
This is equivalent to how detach_ebb_args() works, and it allows the
data flow graph to be modified while traversing the list of results.
