We have some operations defined on DataFlowGraph purely to work around borrow-checker issues with InstructionData and other data on DataFlowGraph. Part of the problem is that indexing the DFG directly hides the fact that we're only indexing the insts field of the DFG.
This PR makes the insts field of the DFG public, but wraps it in a newtype that only allows indexing. This means that the borrow checker is better able to tell when operations on memory held by the DFG won't conflict, which comes up frequently when mutating ValueLists held by InstructionData.
All instructions using the CPU flags types (IFLAGS/FFLAGS) were already
removed. This patch completes the cleanup by removing all remaining
instructions that define values of CPU flags types, as well as the
types themselves.
Specifically, the following features are removed:
- The IFLAGS and FFLAGS types and the SpecialType category.
- Special handling of IFLAGS and FFLAGS in machinst/isle.rs and
machinst/lower.rs.
- The ifcmp, ifcmp_imm, ffcmp, iadd_ifcin, iadd_ifcout, iadd_ifcarry,
isub_ifbin, isub_ifbout, and isub_ifborrow instructions.
- The writes_cpu_flags instruction property.
- The flags verifier pass.
- Flags handling in the interpreter.
All of these features are currently unused; no functional change
intended by this patch.
This addresses https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/issues/3249.
This change removes all variants of `load*_complex` and `store*_complex`
from Cranelift; this is a breaking change to the instructions exposed by
CLIF. The complete list of instructions removed is: `load_complex`,
`store_complex`, `uload8_complex`, `sload8_complex`, `istore8_complex`,
`sload8_complex`, `uload16_complex`, `sload16_complex`,
`istore16_complex`, `uload32_complex`, `sload32_complex`,
`istore32_complex`, `uload8x8_complex`, `sload8x8_complex`,
`sload16x4_complex`, `uload16x4_complex`, `uload32x2_complex`,
`sload32x2_complex`.
The rationale for this removal is that the Cranelift backend now has the
ability to pattern-match multiple upstream additions in order to
calculate the address to access. Previously, this was not possible so
the `*_complex` instructions were needed. Over time, these instructions
have fallen out of use in this repository, making the additional
overhead of maintaining them a chore.
* Manually rename BasicBlock to BlockPredecessor
BasicBlock is a pair of (Ebb, Inst) that is used to represent the
basic block subcomponent of an Ebb that is a predecessor to an Ebb.
Eventually we will be able to remove this struct, but for now it
makes sense to give it a non-conflicting name so that we can start
to transition Ebb to represent a basic block.
I have not updated any comments that refer to BasicBlock, as
eventually we will remove BlockPredecessor and replace with Block,
which is a basic block, so the comments will become correct.
* Manually rename SSABuilder block types to avoid conflict
SSABuilder has its own Block and BlockData types. These along with
associated identifier will cause conflicts in a later commit, so
they are renamed to be more verbose here.
* Automatically rename 'Ebb' to 'Block' in *.rs
* Automatically rename 'EBB' to 'block' in *.rs
* Automatically rename 'ebb' to 'block' in *.rs
* Automatically rename 'extended basic block' to 'basic block' in *.rs
* Automatically rename 'an basic block' to 'a basic block' in *.rs
* Manually update comment for `Block`
`Block`'s wikipedia article required an update.
* Automatically rename 'an `Block`' to 'a `Block`' in *.rs
* Automatically rename 'extended_basic_block' to 'basic_block' in *.rs
* Automatically rename 'ebb' to 'block' in *.clif
* Manually rename clif constant that contains 'ebb' as substring to avoid conflict
* Automatically rename filecheck uses of 'EBB' to 'BB'
'regex: EBB' -> 'regex: BB'
'$EBB' -> '$BB'
* Automatically rename 'EBB' 'Ebb' to 'block' in *.clif
* Automatically rename 'an block' to 'a block' in *.clif
* Fix broken testcase when function name length increases
Test function names are limited to 16 characters. This causes
the new longer name to be truncated and fail a filecheck test. An
outdated comment was also fixed.
