This end result was previously enacted by carrying a `SourceLoc` on
every load/store, which was somewhat cumbersome, and only indirectly
encoded metadata about a memory reference (can it trap) by its presence
or absence. We have a type for this -- `MemFlags` -- that tells us
everything we might want to know about a load or store, and we should
plumb it through to code emission instead.
This PR attaches a `MemFlags` to an `Amode` on x64, and puts it on load
and store `Inst` variants on aarch64. These two choices seem to factor
things out in the nicest way: there are relatively few load/store insts
on aarch64 but many addressing modes, while the opposite is true on x64.
This PR updates the AArch64 ABI implementation so that it (i) properly
respects that v8-v15 inclusive have callee-save lower halves, and
caller-save upper halves, by conservatively approximating (to full
registers) in the appropriate directions when generating prologue
caller-saves and when informing the regalloc of clobbered regs across
callsites.
In order to prevent saving all of these vector registers in the prologue
of every non-leaf function due to the above approximation, this also
makes use of a new regalloc.rs feature to exclude call instructions'
writes from the clobber set returned by register allocation. This is
safe whenever the caller and callee have the same ABI (because anything
the callee could clobber, the caller is allowed to clobber as well
without saving it in the prologue).
Fixes#2254.
In particular:
- try to optimize the integer emission into a 32-bit emission, when the
high bits are all zero, and stop relying on the caller of `imm_r` to
ensure this.
- rename `Inst::imm_r`/`Inst::Imm_R` to `Inst::imm`/`Inst::Imm`.
- generate a sign-extending mov 32-bit immediate to 64-bits, whenever
possible.
- fix a few places where the previous commit did introduce the
generation of zero-constants with xor, when calling `put_input_to_reg`,
thus clobbering the flags before they were read.
It does this by providing an implementation of the CLIF instructions `AtomicRmw`, `AtomicCas`,
`AtomicLoad`, `AtomicStore` and `Fence`.
The translation is straightforward. `AtomicCas` is translated into x64 `cmpxchg`, `AtomicLoad`
becomes a normal load because x64-TSO provides adequate sequencing, `AtomicStore` becomes a
normal store followed by `mfence`, and `Fence` becomes `mfence`. `AtomicRmw` is the only
complex case: it becomes a normal load, followed by a loop which computes an updated value,
tries to `cmpxchg` it back to memory, and repeats if necessary.
This is a minimum-effort initial implementation. `AtomicRmw` could be implemented more
efficiently using LOCK-prefixed integer read-modify-write instructions in the case where the old
value in memory is not required. Subsequent work could add that, if required.
The x64 emitter has been updated to emit the new instructions, obviously. The `LegacyPrefix`
mechanism has been revised to handle multiple prefix bytes, not just one, since it is now
sometimes necessary to emit both 0x66 (Operand Size Override) and F0 (Lock).
In the aarch64 implementation of atomics, there has been some minor renaming for the sake of
clarity, and for consistency with this x64 implementation.
This change primarily adds the ability to lower packed `[move|load|store]` instructions (the vector types were previously unimplemented), but with the addition of the utility `Inst::[move|load|store]` functions it became possible to remove duplicated code (e.g. `stack_load` and `stack_store`) and use these utility functions elsewhere (though not exhaustively).
This change is a pure refactoring--no change to functionality. It removes newlines between the `use ...` statements in the x64 backend so that rustfmt can format them according to its convention. I noticed some files had followed a manual convention but subsequent additions did not seem to fit; this change fixes that and lightly coalesces some of the occurrences of `use a::b; use a::c;` into `use::{b, c}`.
