Basic blocks are terminated by at most one branch instruction now, so we

last instruction we saw instead.
* Review comments
Rework br_table to use BlockCall, allowing us to avoid adding new nodes during ssa construction to hold block arguments. Additionally, many places where we previously matched on InstructionData to extract branch destinations can be replaced with a use of branch_destination or branch_destination_mut.
We don't have overlap in behavior for branch instructions anymore, so we can remove analyze_branch and instead match on the InstructionData directly.

Add a conditional branch instruction with two targets: brif. This instruction will eventually replace brz and brnz, as it encompasses the behavior of both.
This PR also changes the InstructionData layout for instruction formats that hold BlockCall values, taking the same approach we use for Value arguments. This allows branch_destination to return a slice to the BlockCall values held in the instruction, rather than requiring that we pattern match on InstructionData to fetch the then/else blocks.
Function generation for fuzzing has been updated to generate uses of brif, and I've run the cranelift-fuzzgen target locally for hours without triggering any new failures.
Add a new type BlockCall that represents the pair of a block name with arguments to be passed to it. (The mnemonic here is that it looks a bit like a function call.) Rework the implementation of jump, brz, and brnz to use BlockCall instead of storing the block arguments as varargs in the instruction's ValueList.
To ensure that we're processing block arguments from BlockCall values in instructions, three new functions have been introduced on DataFlowGraph that both sets of arguments:
inst_values - returns an iterator that traverses values in the instruction and block arguments
map_inst_values - applies a function to each value in the instruction and block arguments
overwrite_inst_values - overwrite all values in an instruction and block arguments with values from the iterator

This is a cleanup to help prepare for #5464.
Most of the diff is inlining the closure for `mark_all_uses_as_multiple`
which was only called once. That avoids some borrow-checker challenges.
The key change is that the former `push_args_on_stack` closure no longer
actually pushes the iterator on the stack, but just returns it. That
way this closure doesn't need the name of the stack's type. It also
allows it to be reused in the debug_assert.
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.
* Refactor lower_branch to have Unit result
Branches cannot have any output, so it is more straightforward
to have the ISLE term return Unit instead of InstOutput.
Also provide a new `emit_side_effect` term to simplify
implementation of `lower_branch` rules with Unit result.
* Simplify LowerBackend interface
Move all remaining asserts from the LowerBackend::lower and
::lower_branch_group into the common call site.
Change return value of ::lower to Option<InstOutput>, and
return value of ::lower_branch_group to Option<()> to match
ISLE term signature.
Only pass the first branch into ::lower_branch_group and
rename it to ::lower_branch.
As a result of all those changes, LowerBackend routines
now consists solely to calls to the corresponding ISLE
routines.
* aarch64: constant generation cleanup
Add support for MOVZ and MOVN generation via ISLE.
Handle f32const, f64const, and nop instructions via ISLE.
No longer call Inst::gen_constant from lower.rs.
* riscv64: constant generation cleanup
Handle f32const, f64const, and nop instructions via ISLE.
* s390x: constant generation cleanup
Fix rule priorities for "imm" term.
Only handle 32-bit stack offsets; no longer use load_constant64.
* x64: constant generation cleanup
No longer call Inst::gen_constant from lower.rs or abi.rs.
* Refactor LowerBackend::lower to return InstOutput
No longer write to the per-insn output registers; instead, return
an InstOutput vector of temp registers holding the outputs.
This will allow calling LowerBackend::lower multiple times for
the same instruction, e.g. to rematerialize constants.
When emitting the primary copy of the instruction during lowering,
writing to the per-insn registers is now done in lower_clif_block.
As a result, the ISLE lower_common routine is no longer needed.
In addition, the InsnOutput type and all code related to it
can be removed as well.
* Refactor IsleContext to hold a LowerBackend reference
Remove the "triple", "flags", and "isa_flags" fields that are
copied from LowerBackend to each IsleContext, and instead just
hold a reference to LowerBackend in IsleContext.
This will allow calling LowerBackend::lower from within callbacks
in src/machinst/isle.rs, e.g. to rematerialize constants.
To avoid having to pass LowerBackend references through multiple
functions, eliminate the lower_insn_to_regs subroutines in those
targets that still have them, and just inline into the main
lower routine. This also eliminates lower_inst.rs on aarch64
and riscv64.
Replace all accesses to the removed IsleContext fields by going
through the LowerBackend reference.
* Remove MachInst::gen_constant
This addresses the problem described in issue
https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/issues/4426
that targets currently have to duplicate code to emit
constants between the ISLE logic and the gen_constant
callback.
After the various cleanups in earlier patches in this series,
the only remaining user of get_constant is put_value_in_regs
in Lower. This can now be removed, and instead constant
rematerialization can be performed in the put_in_regs ISLE
callback by simply directly calling LowerBackend::lower
on the instruction defining the constant (using a different
output register).
Since the check for egraph mode is now no longer performed in
put_value_in_regs, the Lower::flags member becomes obsolete.
Care needs to be taken that other calls directly to the
Lower::put_value_in_regs routine now handle the fact that
no more rematerialization is performed. All such calls in
target code already historically handle constants themselves.
The remaining call site in the ISLE gen_call_common helper
can be redirected to the ISLE put_in_regs callback.
The existing target implementations of gen_constant are then
unused and can be removed. (In some target there may still
be further opportunities to remove duplication between ISLE
and some local Rust code - this can be left to future patches.)
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.
Modify return pseudo-instructions to have pairs of registers: virtual and real. This allows us to constrain the virtual registers to the real ones specified by the abi, instead of directly emitting moves to those real registers.
Remove the dependency on VCode for VReg allocation. This will simplify the changes in #5172, as that PR introduces the need to allocate temporary registers from the ABI context.
This change also allows us to remove some fields from VCode: reftyped_vregs_set and have_ref_values.
* egraphs: a few miscellaneous compile-time optimizations.
These optimizations together are worth about a 2% compile-time
reduction, as measured on one core with spidermonkey.wasm as an input,
using `hyperfine` on `wasmtime compile`.
The changes included are:
- Some better pre-allocation (blockparams and side-effects concatenated
list vecs);
- Avoiding the indirection of storing list-of-types for every Pure and
Inst node, when almost all nodes produce only a single result;
instead, store arity and single type if it exists, and allow result
projection nodes to fill in types otherwise;
- Pack the `MemoryState` enum into one `u32` (this together with the
above removal of the type slice allows `Node` to
shrink from 48 bytes to 32 bytes);
- always-inline an accessor (`entry` on `CtxHash`) that wasn't
(`always(inline)` appears to be load-bearing, rather than just
`inline`);
- Split the update-analysis path into two hotpaths, one for the union
case and one for the new-node case (and the former can avoid
recomputing for the contained node when replacing a node with
node-and-child eclass entry).

* egraph-based midend: draw the rest of the owl.
* Rename `egg` submodule of cranelift-codegen to `egraph`.

* Remove recursion from find_best_node by doing a single pass.
Rather than recursively computing the lowest-cost node for a given
eclass and memoizing the answer at each eclass node, we can do a single
forward pass; because every eclass node refers only to earlier nodes,
this is sufficient. The behavior may slightly differ from the earlier
behavior because we cannot short-circuit costs to zero once a node is
elaborated; but in practice this should not matter.

* ABI: implement register arguments with constraints.
Currently, Cranelift's ABI code emits a sequence of moves from physical
registers into vregs at the top of the function body, one for every
register-carried argument.
For a number of reasons, we want to move to operand constraints instead,
and remove the use of explicitly-named "pinned vregs"; this allows for
better regalloc in theory, as it removes the need to "reverse-engineer"
the sequence of moves.
This PR alters the ABI code so that it generates a single "args"
pseudo-instruction as the first instruction in the function body. This
pseudo-inst defs all register arguments, and constrains them to the
appropriate registers at the def-point. Subsequently the regalloc can
move them wherever it needs to.
Some care was taken not to have this pseudo-inst show up in
post-regalloc disassemblies, but the change did cause a general regalloc
"shift" in many tests, so the precise-output updates are a bit noisy.
Sorry about that!
A subsequent PR will handle the other half of the ABI code, namely, the
callsite case, with a similar preg-to-constraint conversion.
* Update based on review feedback.
* Review feedback.
Previously, Cranelift panicked (via a a panic in regalloc2) when the
virtual-register limit of 2M (2^21) was reached. This resulted in a
perplexing and unhelpful failure when the user provided a too-large
input (such as the Wasm module in #4865).
This PR adds an explicit check when allocating vregs that fails with a
"code too large" error when the limit is hit, producing output such as
(on the minimized testcase from #4865):
```
Error: failed to compile wasm function 3785 at offset 0xa3f3
Caused by:
Compilation error: Code for function is too large
```
Fixes#4865.
* Cranelift: Deduplicate ABI signatures during lowering
This commit creates the `SigSet` type which interns and deduplicates the ABI
signatures that we create from `ir::Signature`s. The ABI signatures are now
referred to indirectly via a `Sig` (which is a `cranelift_entity` ID), and we
pass around a `SigSet` to anything that needs to access the actual underlying
`SigData` (which is what `ABISig` used to be).
I had to change a couple methods to return a `SmallInstVec` instead of emitting
directly to work around what would otherwise be shared and exclusive borrows of
the lowering context overlapping. I don't expect any of these to heap allocate
in practice.
This does not remove the often-unnecessary allocations caused by
`ensure_struct_return_ptr_is_returned`. That is left for follow up work.
This also opens the door for further shuffling of signature data into more
efficient representations in the future, now that we have `SigSet` to store it
all in one place and it is threaded through all the code. We could potentially
move each signature's parameter and return vectors into one big vector shared
between all signatures, for example, which could cut down on allocations and
shrink the size of `SigData` since those `SmallVec`s have pretty large inline
capacity.
Overall, this refactoring gives a 1-7% speedup for compilation on
`pulldown-cmark`:
```
compilation :: cycles :: benchmarks/pulldown-cmark/benchmark.wasm

Lower `shuffle` and `swizzle` in ISLE.
This PR surfaced a bug with the lowering of `shuffle` when avx512vl and avx512vbmi are enabled: we use `vpermi2b` as the implementation, but panic if the immediate shuffle mask contains any out-of-bounds values. The behavior when the avx512 extensions are not present is that out-of-bounds values are turned into `0` in the result.
I've resolved this by detecting when the shuffle immediate has out-of-bounds indices in the avx512-enabled lowering, and generating an additional mask to zero out the lanes where those indices occur. This brings the avx512 case into line with the semantics of the `shuffle` op: 94bcbe8446/cranelift/codegen/meta/src/shared/instructions.rs (L1495-L1498)
* Port `vconst` to ISLE (AArch64)

* Cranelift: Remove `ABICallee` trait
It has only one implementation: the `ABICalleeImpl` struct. By using that
directly we can avoid unnecessary layers of generics and abstractions as well as

`Box<dyn>`.
* Cranelift: Rename `ABICalleeImpl` to `AbiCallee`

* Rename `AbiCallee` to `Callee`
This is the implementation of https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/issues/4155, using the "inverted API" approach suggested by @cfallin (thanks!) in Cranelift, and trait object to provide a backend for an all-included experience in Wasmtime.
After the suggestion of Chris, `Function` has been split into mostly two parts:
- on the one hand, `FunctionStencil` contains all the fields required during compilation, and that act as a compilation cache key: if two function stencils are the same, then the result of their compilation (`CompiledCodeBase<Stencil>`) will be the same. This makes caching trivial, as the only thing to cache is the `FunctionStencil`.
- on the other hand, `FunctionParameters` contain the... function parameters that are required to finalize the result of compilation into a `CompiledCode` (aka `CompiledCodeBase<Final>`) with proper final relocations etc., by applying fixups and so on.
Most changes are here to accomodate those requirements, in particular that `FunctionStencil` should be `Hash`able to be used as a key in the cache:
- most source locations are now relative to a base source location in the function, and as such they're encoded as `RelSourceLoc` in the `FunctionStencil`. This required changes so that there's no need to explicitly mark a `SourceLoc` as the base source location, it's automatically detected instead the first time a non-default `SourceLoc` is set.
- user-defined external names in the `FunctionStencil` (aka before this patch `ExternalName::User { namespace, index }`) are now references into an external table of `UserExternalNameRef -> UserExternalName`, present in the `FunctionParameters`, and must be explicitly declared using `Function::declare_imported_user_function`.
- some refactorings have been made for function names:
- `ExternalName` was used as the type for a `Function`'s name; while it thus allowed `ExternalName::Libcall` in this place, this would have been quite confusing to use it there. Instead, a new enum `UserFuncName` is introduced for this name, that's either a user-defined function name (the above `UserExternalName`) or a test case name.
- The future of `ExternalName` is likely to become a full reference into the `FunctionParameters`'s mapping, instead of being "either a handle for user-defined external names, or the thing itself for other variants". I'm running out of time to do this, and this is not trivial as it implies touching ISLE which I'm less familiar with.
The cache computes a sha256 hash of the `FunctionStencil`, and uses this as the cache key. No equality check (using `PartialEq`) is performed in addition to the hash being the same, as we hope that this is sufficient data to avoid collisions.
A basic fuzz target has been introduced that tries to do the bare minimum:
- check that a function successfully compiled and cached will be also successfully reloaded from the cache, and returns the exact same function.
- check that a trivial modification in the external mapping of `UserExternalNameRef -> UserExternalName` hits the cache, and that other modifications don't hit the cache.
- This last check is less efficient and less likely to happen, so probably should be rethought a bit.
Thanks to both @alexcrichton and @cfallin for your very useful feedback on Zulip.
Some numbers show that for a large wasm module we're using internally, this is a 20% compile-time speedup, because so many `FunctionStencil`s are the same, even within a single module. For a group of modules that have a lot of code in common, we get hit rates up to 70% when they're used together. When a single function changes in a wasm module, every other function is reloaded; that's still slower than I expect (between 10% and 50% of the overall compile time), so there's likely room for improvement.
Fixes#4155.
The trait had only one implementation: the `Lower` struct. It is easier to just
use that directly, and not introduce unnecessary layers of generics and
abstractions.
Once upon a time, there was hope that we would have other implementations of the
`LowerCtx` trait, that did things like lower CLIF to SMTLIB for
verification. However, this is not practical these days given the way that the
trait has evolved over time, and our verification efforts are focused on ISLE
now anyways, and we're actually making some progress on that front (much more
than anyone ever did on a second `LowerCtx` trait implementation!)
This adds full i128 support to the s390x target, including new filetests
and enabling the existing i128 runtest on s390x.
The ABI requires that i128 is passed and returned via implicit pointer,
but the front end still generates direct i128 types in call. This means
we have to implement ABI support to implicitly convert i128 types to
pointers when passing arguments.
To do so, we add a new variant ABIArg::ImplicitArg. This acts like
StructArg, except that the value type is the actual target type,
not a pointer type. The required conversions have to be inserted
in the prologue and at function call sites.
Note that when dereferencing the implicit pointer in the prologue,
we may require a temp register: the pointer may be passed on the
stack so it needs to be loaded first, but the value register may
be in the wrong class for pointer values. In this case, we use
the "stack limit" register, which should be available at this
point in the prologue.
For return values, we use a mechanism similar to the one used for
supporting multiple return values in the Wasmtime ABI. The only
difference is that the hidden pointer to the return buffer must
be the *first*, not last, argument in this case.
(This implements the second half of issue #4565.)
* Cranellift: remove Baldrdash support and related features.
As noted in Mozilla's bugzilla bug 1781425 [1], the SpiderMonkey team
has recently determined that their current form of integration with
Cranelift is too hard to maintain, and they have chosen to remove it
from their codebase. If and when they decide to build updated support
for Cranelift, they will adopt different approaches to several details
of the integration.
In the meantime, after discussion with the SpiderMonkey folks, they
agree that it makes sense to remove the bits of Cranelift that exist
to support the integration ("Baldrdash"), as they will not need
them. Many of these bits are difficult-to-maintain special cases that
are not actually tested in Cranelift proper: for example, the
Baldrdash integration required Cranelift to emit function bodies
without prologues/epilogues, and instead communicate very precise
information about the expected frame size and layout, then stitched
together something post-facto. This was brittle and caused a lot of
incidental complexity ("fallthrough returns", the resulting special
logic in block-ordering); this is just one example. As another
example, one particular Baldrdash ABI variant processed stack args in
reverse order, so our ABI code had to support both traversal
orders. We had a number of other Baldrdash-specific settings as well
that did various special things.
This PR removes Baldrdash ABI support, the `fallthrough_return`
instruction, and pulls some threads to remove now-unused bits as a
result of those two, with the understanding that the SpiderMonkey folks
will build new functionality as needed in the future and we can perhaps
find cleaner abstractions to make it all work.

* Review feedback.
* Fix (?) DWARF debug tests: add `--disable-cache` to wasmtime invocations.
The debugger tests invoke `wasmtime` from within each test case under
the control of a debugger (gdb or lldb). Some of these tests started to
inexplicably fail in CI with unrelated changes, and the failures were
only inconsistently reproducible locally. It seems to be cache related:
if we disable cached compilation on the nested `wasmtime` invocations,
the tests consistently pass.

This adds full support for all Cranelift SIMD instructions
to the s390x target. Everything is matched fully via ISLE.
In addition to adding support for many new instructions,
and the lower.isle code to match all SIMD IR patterns,
this patch also adds ABI support for vector types.
In particular, we now need to handle the fact that
vector registers 8 .. 15 are partially callee-saved,
i.e. the high parts of those registers (which correspond
to the old floating-poing registers) are callee-saved,
but the low parts are not. This is the exact same situation
that we already have on AArch64, and so this patch uses the
same solution (the is_included_in_clobbers callback).
The bulk of the changes are platform-specific, but there are
a few exceptions:
- Added ISLE extractors for the Immediate and Constant types,
to enable matching the vconst and swizzle instructions.
- Added a missing accessor for call_conv to ABISig.
- Fixed endian conversion for vector types in data_value.rs
to enable their use in runtests on the big-endian platforms.
- Enabled (nearly) all SIMD runtests on s390x. [ Two test cases
remain disabled due to vector shift count semantics, see below. ]
- Enabled all Wasmtime SIMD tests on s390x.
There are three minor issues, called out via FIXMEs below,
which should be addressed in the future, but should not be
blockers to getting this patch merged. I've opened the
following issues to track them:
- Vector shift count semantics
https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/issues/4424
- is_included_in_clobbers vs. link register
https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/issues/4425
- gen_constant callback
https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/issues/4426
All tests, including all newly enabled SIMD tests, pass
on both z14 and z15 architectures.
This PR adds a basic *alias analysis*, and optimizations that use it.
This is a "mid-end optimization": it operates on CLIF, the
machine-independent IR, before lowering occurs.
The alias analysis (or maybe more properly, a sort of memory-value
analysis) determines when it can prove a particular memory
location is equal to a given SSA value, and when it can, it replaces any
loads of that location.
This subsumes two common optimizations:
* Redundant load elimination: when the same memory address is loaded two
times, and it can be proven that no intervening operations will write
to that memory, then the second load is *redundant* and its result
must be the same as the first. We can use the first load's result and
remove the second load.
* Store-to-load forwarding: when a load can be proven to access exactly
the memory written by a preceding store, we can replace the load's
result with the store's data operand, and remove the load.
Both of these optimizations rely on a "last store" analysis that is a
sort of coloring mechanism, split across disjoint categories of abstract
state. The basic idea is that every memory-accessing operation is put
into one of N disjoint categories; it is disallowed for memory to ever
be accessed by an op in one category and later accessed by an op in
another category. (The frontend must ensure this.)
Then, given this, we scan the code and determine, for each
memory-accessing op, when a single prior instruction is a store to the
same category. This "colors" the instruction: it is, in a sense, a
static name for that version of memory.
This analysis provides an important invariant: if two operations access
memory with the same last-store, then *no other store can alias* in the
time between that last store and these operations. This must-not-alias
property, together with a check that the accessed address is *exactly
the same* (same SSA value and offset), and other attributes of the
access (type, extension mode) are the same, let us prove that the
results are the same.
Given last-store info, we scan the instructions and build a table from
"memory location" key (last store, address, offset, type, extension) to
known SSA value stored in that location. A store inserts a new mapping.
A load may also insert a new mapping, if we didn't already have one.
Then when a load occurs and an entry already exists for its "location",
we can reuse the value. This will be either RLE or St-to-Ld depending on
where the value came from.
Note that this *does* work across basic blocks: the last-store analysis
is a full iterative dataflow pass, and we are careful to check dominance
of a previously-defined value before aliasing to it at a potentially
redundant load. So we will do the right thing if we only have a
"partially redundant" load (loaded already but only in one predecessor
block), but we will also correctly reuse a value if there is a store or
load above a loop and a redundant load of that value within the loop, as
long as no potentially-aliasing stores happen within the loop.
* Cranelift: fix#3953: rework single/multiple-use logic in lowering.
This PR addresses the longstanding issue with loads trying to merge
into compares on x86-64, and more generally, with the lowering
framework falsely recognizing "single uses" of one op by
another (which would normally allow merging of side-effecting ops like
loads) when there is *indirect* duplication.
To fix this, we replace the direct `value_uses` count with a
transitive notion of uniqueness (not unlike Rust's `&`/`&mut` and how
a `&mut` downgrades to `&` when accessed through another `&`!). A
value is used multiple times transitively if it has multiple direct
uses, or is used by another op that is used multiple times
transitively.
The canonical example of badness is:
```
v1 := load
v2 := ifcmp v1, ...
v3 := selectif v2, ...
v4 := selectif v2, ...
```
both `v3` and `v4` effectively merge the `ifcmp` (`v2`), so even
though the use of `v1` is "unique", it is codegenned twice. This is
why we ~~can't have nice things~~ can't merge loads into
compares (#3953).
There is quite a subtle and interesting design space around this
problem and how we might solve it. See the long doc-comment on
`ValueUseState` in this PR for more justification for the particular
design here. In particular, this design deliberately simplifies a bit
relative to an "optimal" solution: some uses can *become* unique
depending on merging, but we don't design our data structures for such
updates because that would require significant extra costly
tracking (some sort of transitive refcounting). For example, in the
above, if `selectif` somehow did not merge `ifcmp`, then we would only
codegen the `ifcmp` once into its result register (and use that
register twice); then the load *is* uniquely used, and could be
merged. But that requires transitioning from "multiple use" back to
"unique use" with careful tracking as we do pattern-matching, which
I've chosen to make out-of-scope here for now. In practice, I don't
think it will matter too much (and we can always improve later).
With this PR, we can now re-enable load-op merging for compares. A
subsequent commit does this.
* Update x64 backend to allow load-op merging for `cmp`.
* Update filetests.
* Add test for cmp-mem merging on x64.
* Comment fixes.
* Rework ValueUseState analysis for better performance.
* Update s390x filetest: iadd_ifcout cannot merge loads anymore because it has multiple outputs (ValueUseState limitation)
* Address review comments.
Previously, the block successor accumulation and the blockparam branch
arg setup were decoupled. The lowering backend implicitly specified
the order of successor edges via its `MachTerminator` enum on the last
instruction in the block, while the `Lower` toplevel
machine-independent driver set up blockparam branch args in the edge
order seen in CLIF.
In some cases, these orders did not match -- for example, when the
conditional branch depended on an FP condition that was implemented by
swapping taken/not-taken edges and inverting the condition code.
This PR refactors the successor handling to be centralized in `Lower`
rather than flow through the terminator `MachInst`, and adds a
successor block and its blockparam args at the same time, ensuring the
orders match.
This PR switches Cranelift over to the new register allocator, regalloc2.
See [this document](https://gist.github.com/cfallin/08553421a91f150254fe878f67301801)
for a summary of the design changes. This switchover has implications for
core VCode/MachInst types and the lowering pass.
Overall, this change brings improvements to both compile time and speed of
generated code (runtime), as reported in #3942:
```
Benchmark Compilation (wallclock) Execution (wallclock)
blake3-scalar 25% faster 28% faster
blake3-simd no diff no diff
meshoptimizer 19% faster 17% faster
pulldown-cmark 17% faster no diff
bz2 15% faster no diff
SpiderMonkey, 21% faster 2% faster
fib(30)
clang.wasm 42% faster N/A
```
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.
In #3721, we have been discussing what to do about the ARM32 backend in
Cranelift. Currently, this backend supports only 32-bit types, which is
insufficient for full Wasm-MVP; it's missing other critical bits, like
floating-point support; and it has only ever been exercised, AFAIK, via
the filetests for the individual CLIF instructions that are implemented.
We were very very thankful for the original contribution of this
backend, even in its partial state, and we had hoped at the time that we
could eventually mature it in-tree until it supported e.g. Wasm and
other use-cases. But that hasn't yet happened -- to the blame of no-one,
to be clear, we just haven't had a contributor with sufficient time.
Unfortunately, the existence of the backend and lack of active
maintainer now potentially pose a bit of a burden as we hope to make
continuing changes to the backend framework. For example, the ISLE
migration, and the use of regalloc2 that it will allow, would need all
of the existing lowering patterns in the hand-written ARM32 backend to
be rewritten as ISLE rules.
Given that we don't currently have the resources to do this, we think
it's probably best if we, sadly, for now remove this partial backend.
This is not in any way a statement of what we might accept in the
future, though. If, in the future, an ARM32 backend updated to our
latest codebase with an active maintainer were to appear, we'd be happy
to merge it (and likewise for any other architecture!). But for now,
this is probably the best path. Thanks again to the original contributor
@jmkrauz and we hope that this work can eventually be brought back and
reused if someone has the time to do so!
Add accessors to prelude.isle to access data fields of
`func_addr` and `symbol_value` instructions.
These are based on similar versions I had added to the s390x
back-end, but are a bit more straightforward to use.
- func_ref_data: Extract SigRef, ExternalName, and RelocDistance
fields given a FuncRef.
- symbol_value_data: Extract ExternalName, RelocDistance, and
offset fields given a GlobalValue representing a Symbol.
- reloc_distance_near: Test for RelocDistance::Near.
The s390x back-end is changed to use these common versions.
Note that this exposed a bug in common isle code: This extractor:
(extractor (load_sym inst)
(and inst
(load _ (def_inst (symbol_value
(symbol_value_data _
(reloc_distance_near) offset)))
(i64_from_offset
(memarg_symbol_offset_sum <offset _)))))
would raise an assertion in sema.rs due to a supposed cycle in
extractor definitions. But there was no actual cycle, it was
simply that the extractor tree refers twice to the `insn_data`
extractor (once via the `load` and once via the `symbol_value`
extractor). Fixed by checking for pre-existing definitions only
along one path in the tree, not across the whole tree.
This register is not initialized, but we protect against its being used
by never allowing an iflags/fflags-typed value to be used with
`put_value_in_regs`. All `iflags`/`fflags` usages should be handled by
pattern-matching: e.g., `trapif` explicitly matches an `iadd_ifcout`
input.
Eventually (#3249) we need to simplify this by removing
iflags/fflags-tyepd values and using bool flags instead,
pattern-matching to get the same efficient lowerings as today. For now,
this allows the ISLE assertions to pass.
This commit is the first "meaty" instruction added to ISLE for the
AArch64 backend. I chose to pick the first two in the current lowering's
`match` statement, `isub` and `iadd`. These two turned out to be
particularly interesting for a few reasons:
* Both had clearly migratable-to-ISLE behavior along the lines of
special-casing per type. For example 128-bit and vector arithmetic
were both easily translateable.
* The `iadd` instruction has special cases for fusing with a
multiplication to generate `madd` which is expressed pretty easily in
ISLE.
* Otherwise both instructions had a number of forms where they attempted
to interpret the RHS as various forms of constants, extends, or
shifts. There's a bit of a design space of how best to represent this
in ISLE and what I settled on was to have a special case for each form
of instruction, and the special cases are somewhat duplicated between
`iadd` and `isub`. There's custom "extractors" for the special cases
and instructions that support these special cases will have an
`rule`-per-case.
Overall I think the ISLE transitioned pretty well. I don't think that
the aarch64 backend is going to follow the x64 backend super closely,
though. For example the x64 backend is having a helper-per-instruction
at the moment but with AArch64 it seems to make more sense to only have
a helper-per-enum-variant-of-`MInst`. This is because the same
instruction (e.g. `ALUOp::Sub32`) can be expressed with multiple
different forms depending on the payload.
It's worth noting that the ISLE looks like it's a good deal larger than
the code actually being removed from lowering as part of this commit. I
think this is deceptive though because a lot of the logic in
`put_input_in_rse_imm12_maybe_negated` and `alu_inst_imm12` is being
inlined into the ISLE definitions for each instruction instead of having
it all packed into the helper functions. Some of the "boilerplate" here
is the addition of various ISLE utilities as well.
There were a few previous code paths that attempted to handle this, but this new
check handles it for all callers.
Rematerializing constants, rather than assigning and reusing a register, allows
for lower register pressure.
On the build side, this commit introduces two things:
1. The automatic generation of various ISLE definitions for working with
CLIF. Specifically, it generates extern type definitions for clif opcodes and
the clif instruction data `enum`, as well as extractors for matching each clif
instructions. This happens inside the `cranelift-codegen-meta` crate.
2. The compilation of ISLE DSL sources to Rust code, that can be included in the
main `cranelift-codegen` compilation.
Next, this commit introduces the integration glue code required to get
ISLE-generated Rust code hooked up in clif-to-x64 lowering. When lowering a clif
instruction, we first try to use the ISLE code path. If it succeeds, then we are
done lowering this instruction. If it fails, then we proceed along the existing
hand-written code path for lowering.
Finally, this commit ports many lowering rules over from hand-written,
open-coded Rust to ISLE.
In the process of supporting ISLE, this commit also makes the x64 `Inst` capable
of expressing SSA by supporting 3-operand forms for all of the existing
instructions that only have a 2-operand form encoding:
dst = src1 op src2
Rather than only the typical x86-64 2-operand form:
dst = dst op src
This allows `MachInst` to be in SSA form, since `dst` and `src1` are
disentangled.
("3-operand" and "2-operand" are a little bit of a misnomer since not all
operations are binary operations, but we do the same thing for, e.g., unary
operations by disentangling the sole operand from the result.)
There are two motivations for this change:
1. To allow ISLE lowering code to have value-equivalence semantics. We want ISLE
lowering to translate a CLIF expression that evaluates to some value into a
`MachInst` expression that evaluates to the same value. We want both the
lowering itself and the resulting `MachInst` to be pure and referentially
transparent. This is both a nice paradigm for compiler writers that are
authoring and maintaining lowering rules and is a prerequisite to any sort of
formal verification of our lowering rules in the future.
2. Better align `MachInst` with `regalloc2`'s API, which requires that the input
be in SSA form.
