Move the flow graph computation into a compute method which can be
called with multiple functions.
This allows us to reuse the ControlFlowGraph memory and keep an instance
in the Context.
An SSA value is usually biased towards a specific register class or a
stack slot, depending on the constraints of the instructions using it.
Represent this bias as an Affinity enum, and implement a merging
algorithm for updating an affinity to satisfy a new constraint.
Affinities will be computed as part of the liveness analysis. This is
not implemented yet.
Every encoding recipe must specify register constraints on input and
output values.
Generate recipe constraint tables along with the other encoding tables.
Also rework the algorithm to be more robust against unreachable blocks.
- Add an is_reachable(ebb) method.
- Change idom(ebb) to just return an instruction.
- Make idom() return None for the entry block as well as unreachable
blocks.
We want to separate the Python classes that make up the DSL used to
define the Cretonne language from the concrete definitions.
- cdsl.types defines the ValueType class hierarchy.
- base.types defines the concrete types.
Since we're deconstructing an instruction anyway, go ahead and resolve
any value aliases on its arguments before we construct the replacement
instructions.
If a secondary value in the source pattern becomes a primary value in
the destination pattern, it is not possible to overwrite the definition
of the source value.
Instead, change the original source value to an alias to the new promary
value.
When expanding iadd_cout, the original instruction is replaced with an
iadd, and an icmp is inserted after the iadd.
Make sure we advance the insertion position after replacing iadd_cout so
the icmp gets inserted *after* iadd.
Include the test file preamble comments when building a filecheck
instance for every function in the file.
This makes it possible to define common regex variables in the preamble
and use these definitions for all the functions.
When an illegal instruction is replaced with other instructions, back up
and revisit the expanded instructions. The new instructions need to have
encodings assigned too.
This also allows for expansions to contain illegal instructions that
need to be legalized themselves.
The copy/spill/fill instructions will be used by the register allocator
for splitting live ranges. The copy instruction is also useful when
rewriting values:
If a primary value is rewritten as a secondary result, a copy
instruction can be used instead:
a = foo x
=>
t, vx1 = call ...
a = copy vx1
Since a primary value must be the first value of an instruction, this
doesn't work:
a = foo x
=>
t, a = call ...
Give these crates each a more standard directory layout with sources in
a 'src' sub-sirectory and Cargo.toml in the top lib/foo directory.
Add license and description fields to each.
The build script for the cretonne crate now lives in
'lib/cretonne/build.rs' separating it from the normal library sources
under 'lib/cretonne/src'.
The 'lib/cretonne' directory will be the new root of a stand-alone
cretonne crate containg both Python and Rust sources.
This is in preparation for publishing crates on crates.io.
The Builder keeps track of a position in the layout and inserts new
instructions there.
Add insert_ebb() and ebb() methods to Builder.
Use Builder in the cfg tests.
