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.
* Verify that a recomputed dominator tree is identical to the existing one.
* The verifier now typechecks instruction results and arguments.
* The verifier now typechecks instruction results and arguments.
* The verifier now typechecks instruction results and arguments.
* Added `inst_{fixed,variable}_args` accessor functions.
* Improved error messages in verifier.
* Type check return statements against the function signature.
Use the meta language encoding recipes to generate an emit_inst()
function for each ISA. The generated calls into recipe_*() functions
that must be implemented by hand.
Implement recipe_*() functions for the RISC-V recipes.
Add the TargetIsa::emit_inst() entry point which emits an instruction to
a CodeSink trait object.
This means that whenever we need to split a value, it is either already
defined by a concatenation instruction in a previously processed EBB, or
it's an EBB argument.
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.
As discussed in #3.
Once we know the controlling type variable of a polymorphic instruction,
the types of input operands are either bound to known types, or they can
vary freely.
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.
These low-level functions allow us to build up a list of instruction
results incrementally. They are equivalent to the existing
attach_ebb_arg and append_ebb_arg.
Instead, just return the first of the detached values, and provide a
next_secondary_result() method for traversing the list.
This is equivalent to how detach_ebb_args() works, and it allows the
data flow graph to be modified while traversing the list of results.
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.
Now that some instruction formats put all of their value arguments in a
value list, we need to know how many value are fixed and how many are
variable_args.
CC @angusholder who may need this information in the verifier.
Any code that needs to manipulate a variable argument list on an
instruction will need to remove the instruction's value list first,
change the list, and then put it back on the instruction. This is
required to avoid fighting the borrow checker over mutable locks on the
DataFlowGraph and its value list pool.
Add a generated InstructionData::take_value_list() method which lifts
out and existing value list and returns it, levaing an empty list in its
place, like Option::take() does it.
Add a generated InstructionData::put_value_list() which puts it back,
verifying that no existing value list is overwritten.
Allow some flexibility in the signature matching for instruction
formats. In particular, look for a value list format as a second chance
option.
The Return, ReturnReg, and TernaryOverflow formats all fit the single
MultiAry catch-all format for instructions without immediate operands.
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'.
Now that variable arguments are always stored in a value list with the
fixed arguments, we no longer need the arcane [&[Value]; 2] return type.
Arguments are always stored contiguously, so just return a &[Value]
slice.
Also remove the each_arg() methods which were just trying to make it
easier to work with the old slice pair.
With the Return and ReturnReg formats converted to using value lists for
storing their arguments, thee are no remaining instruction formats with
variable argument lists in boxed storage.
The Return and ReturnReg formats are also going to be merged since
they are identical now.
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.
