Compute exact EBB header offsets and check that branches are in range.
Not implemented yet: Relax branches that are not in range.
Invoke the relax_branches() pass from the 'test binemit' file tests so
they can verify the proper encoding of branch instructions too.
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.
The meaning of format.typevar_operand changes recently to be relative to
value operands only instead of all operands. The Sphinx cton domain
wasn't updated.
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.
Run the verify_contexti() function after invoking the legalize() and
regalloc() context functions. This will help catch bad code produced by
these passes.
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.
If an instruction doesn't have an associated encoding, use the standard
TargetIsa hook to encode it.
The test still fails if an instruction can't be encoded. There is no
legalization step.
The EBB argument splitting may generate concat-split dependencies when
it repairs branch arguments in EBBs that have not yet been fully
legalized. Add a branch argument simplification step that can resolve
these dependency chains.
This means that all split and concatenation instructions will be dead
after legalization for types that have no legal instructions using them.
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.
The call arguments on call_indirect should not include the fixed callee
argument.
Add legalizer assertions to verify that signatures are actually valid
after legalization. If not, we would get infinite legalizer loops.
Like the entry block arguments, the return values from a call
instruction need to be converted back from their ABI representation.
Add tests of call instruction legalization.
- abi.cton is for testing the actual RISC-V ABI.
- legalize-abi.cton is for testing the legalizer around ABI boundaries.
- parse-encoding.cton is for testing the parser's handling of RISC-V
encoding and register annotations.
The type signatures of functions can change when they are legalized for
a specific ABI. This means that all call and return instructions need to
be rewritten to use the correct arguments.
- Fix arguments to call instructions.
- Fix arguments to return instructions.
TBD:
- Fix return values from call instructions.
When the CRETONNE_DBG environment variable is set, send debug messages
to a file named cretonne.dbg.*.
The trace facility is only enabled when debug assertions are on.
No instruction sets actually have single instructions for materializing
vector constants. You always need to use a constant pool.
Cretonne doesn't have constant pools yet, but it will in the future, and
that is how vector constants should be represented.
Instruction formats are now identified by a signature that doesn't
include the ordering of value operands relative to immediate operands.
This means that the BinaryRev instruction format becomes redundant, so
delete it. The isub_imm instruction was the only one using that format.
Rename it to irsub_imm to make it clear what it does now that it is
printed as 'irsub_imm v2, 45'.
The Branch format also stores its fixed argument in the value list. This
requires the value pool to be passed to a few more functions.
Note that this actually makes the Branch and Jump variants of
InstructionData identical. The instruction format hashing does not yet
understand that all value operands are stored in the value list. We'll
fix that in a later patch.
Also convert IndirectCall, noting that Call and IndirectCall remain
separate instruction formats because they have different immediate
fields.
Read the Docs is now using the latest version of Sphinx, so upgrade our
recommended version too.
As of Sphinx 1.4, index entries are 5-tuples instead of 4-tuples. Update
the Cretonne Sphinx domain to generate the new 5-tuples.
Since we're over this compatibility bump, there's no reason to recommend
a specific Sphinx version, so just go back to 'current'.
Add a Function::display() method which can include ISA-specific
information when printing the function.
If a test file has a unique ISA, use that in the `test cat`
implementation.
Add support for two new type variable functions: half_vector() and
double_vector().
Use these two instructions to break down unsupported SIMD types and
build them up again.
Insert conversion code that reconstructs the original function argument
types from the legalized ABI signature.
Add abi::legalize_abi_value(). This function is used when adapting code
to a legalized function signature.
Add an abi module with code that is probably useful to all ISAs when
implementing this function.
Add a unit() method to RegClassData which can be used to index the
register units in a class.
Specify the location of arguments as well as the size of stack argument
array needed. The ABI annotations are optional, just like the value
locations.
Remove the Eq implementation for Signature which was only used by a
single parser test.
