`urm_noflags` is a variant of `urm` which doesn't clobber the flags, and `urm_noflags_abcd` is a further variant for ABCD registers, so it also doesn't clobber the flags.

Testing Cretonne
|
|
****************
|
|
|
|
Cretonne is tested at multiple levels of abstraction and integration. When
|
|
possible, Rust unit tests are used to verify single functions and types. When
|
|
testing the interaction between compiler passes, file-level tests are
|
|
appropriate.
|
|
|
|
The top-level shell script :file:`test-all.sh` runs all of the tests in the
|
|
Cretonne repository.
|
|
|
|
Rust tests
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
.. highlight:: rust
|
|
|
|
Rust and Cargo have good support for testing. Cretonne uses unit tests, doc
|
|
tests, and integration tests where appropriate.
|
|
|
|
Unit tests
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
Unit test live in a ``tests`` sub-module of the code they are testing::
|
|
|
|
pub fn add(x: u32, y: u32) -> u32 {
|
|
x + y
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
#[cfg(test)]
|
|
mod tests {
|
|
use super::add;
|
|
|
|
#[test]
|
|
check_add() {
|
|
assert_eq!(add(2, 2), 4);
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Since sub-modules have access to non-public items in a Rust module, unit tests
|
|
can be used to test module-internal functions and types too.
|
|
|
|
Doc tests
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
Documentation comments can contain code snippets which are also compiled and
|
|
tested::
|
|
|
|
//! The `Flags` struct is immutable once it has been created. A `Builder` instance is used to
|
|
//! create it.
|
|
//!
|
|
//! # Example
|
|
//! ```
|
|
//! use cretonne_codegen::settings::{self, Configurable};
|
|
//!
|
|
//! let mut b = settings::builder();
|
|
//! b.set("opt_level", "fastest");
|
|
//!
|
|
//! let f = settings::Flags::new(&b);
|
|
//! assert_eq!(f.opt_level(), settings::OptLevel::Fastest);
|
|
//! ```
|
|
|
|
These tests are useful for demonstrating how to use an API, and running them
|
|
regularly makes sure that they stay up to date. Documentation tests are not
|
|
appropriate for lots of assertions; use unit tests for that.
|
|
|
|
Integration tests
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Integration tests are Rust source files that are compiled and linked
|
|
individually. They are used to exercise the external API of the crates under
|
|
test.
|
|
|
|
These tests are usually found in the :file:`tests` top-level directory where
|
|
they have access to all the crates in the Cretonne repository. The
|
|
:file:`lib/codegen` and :file:`lib/reader` crates have no external
|
|
dependencies, which can make testing tedious. Integration tests that don't need
|
|
to depend on other crates can be placed in :file:`lib/codegen/tests` and
|
|
:file:`lib/reader/tests`.
|
|
|
|
File tests
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
.. highlight:: cton
|
|
|
|
Compilers work with large data structures representing programs, and it quickly
|
|
gets unwieldy to generate test data programmatically. File-level tests make it
|
|
easier to provide substantial input functions for the compiler tests.
|
|
|
|
File tests are :file:`*.cton` files in the :file:`filetests/` directory
|
|
hierarchy. Each file has a header describing what to test followed by a number
|
|
of input functions in the :doc:`Cretonne textual intermediate representation
|
|
<langref>`:
|
|
|
|
.. productionlist::
|
|
test_file : test_header `function_list`
|
|
test_header : test_commands (`isa_specs` | `settings`)
|
|
test_commands : test_command { test_command }
|
|
test_command : "test" test_name { option } "\n"
|
|
|
|
The available test commands are described below.
|
|
|
|
Many test commands only make sense in the context of a target instruction set
|
|
architecture. These tests require one or more ISA specifications in the test
|
|
header:
|
|
|
|
.. productionlist::
|
|
isa_specs : { [`settings`] isa_spec }
|
|
isa_spec : "isa" isa_name { `option` } "\n"
|
|
|
|
The options given on the ``isa`` line modify the ISA-specific settings defined in
|
|
:file:`lib/codegen/meta/isa/*/settings.py`.
|
|
|
|
All types of tests allow shared Cretonne settings to be modified:
|
|
|
|
.. productionlist::
|
|
settings : { setting }
|
|
setting : "set" { option } "\n"
|
|
option : flag | setting "=" value
|
|
|
|
The shared settings available for all target ISAs are defined in
|
|
:file:`lib/codegen/meta/base/settings.py`.
|
|
|
|
The ``set`` lines apply settings cumulatively::
|
|
|
|
test legalizer
|
|
set opt_level=best
|
|
set is_pic=1
|
|
isa riscv64
|
|
set is_pic=0
|
|
isa riscv32 supports_m=false
|
|
|
|
function %foo() {}
|
|
|
|
This example will run the legalizer test twice. Both runs will have
|
|
``opt_level=best``, but they will have different ``is_pic`` settings. The 32-bit
|
|
run will also have the RISC-V specific flag ``supports_m`` disabled.
|
|
|
|
The filetests are run automatically as part of `cargo test`, and they can
|
|
also be run manually with the `cton-util test` command.
|
|
|
|
Filecheck
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
Many of the test commands described below use *filecheck* to verify their
|
|
output. Filecheck is a Rust implementation of the LLVM tool of the same name.
|
|
See the `documentation <https://docs.rs/filecheck/>`_ for details of its syntax.
|
|
|
|
Comments in :file:`.cton` files are associated with the entity they follow.
|
|
This typically means an instruction or the whole function. Those tests that
|
|
use filecheck will extract comments associated with each function (or its
|
|
entities) and scan them for filecheck directives. The test output for each
|
|
function is then matched against the filecheck directives for that function.
|
|
|
|
Comments appearing before the first function in a file apply to every function.
|
|
This is useful for defining common regular expression variables with the
|
|
``regex:`` directive, for example.
|
|
|
|
Note that LLVM's file tests don't separate filecheck directives by their
|
|
associated function. It verifies the concatenated output against all filecheck
|
|
directives in the test file. LLVM's :command:`FileCheck` command has a
|
|
``CHECK-LABEL:`` directive to help separate the output from different functions.
|
|
Cretonne's tests don't need this.
|
|
|
|
`test cat`
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
This is one of the simplest file tests, used for testing the conversion to and
|
|
from textual IR. The ``test cat`` command simply parses each function and
|
|
converts it back to text again. The text of each function is then matched
|
|
against the associated filecheck directives.
|
|
|
|
Example::
|
|
|
|
function %r1() -> i32, f32 {
|
|
ebb1:
|
|
v10 = iconst.i32 3
|
|
v20 = f32const 0.0
|
|
return v10, v20
|
|
}
|
|
; sameln: function %r1() -> i32, f32 {
|
|
; nextln: ebb0:
|
|
; nextln: v10 = iconst.i32 3
|
|
; nextln: v20 = f32const 0.0
|
|
; nextln: return v10, v20
|
|
; nextln: }
|
|
|
|
`test verifier`
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
Run each function through the IR verifier and check that it produces the
|
|
expected error messages.
|
|
|
|
Expected error messages are indicated with an ``error:`` directive *on the
|
|
instruction that produces the verifier error*. Both the error message and
|
|
reported location of the error is verified::
|
|
|
|
test verifier
|
|
|
|
function %test(i32) {
|
|
ebb0(v0: i32):
|
|
jump ebb1 ; error: terminator
|
|
return
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
This example test passes if the verifier fails with an error message containing
|
|
the sub-string ``"terminator"`` *and* the error is reported for the ``jump``
|
|
instruction.
|
|
|
|
If a function contains no ``error:`` annotations, the test passes if the
|
|
function verifies correctly.
|
|
|
|
`test print-cfg`
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
Print the control flow graph of each function as a Graphviz graph, and run
|
|
filecheck over the result. See also the :command:`cton-util print-cfg`
|
|
command::
|
|
|
|
; For testing cfg generation. This code is nonsense.
|
|
test print-cfg
|
|
test verifier
|
|
|
|
function %nonsense(i32, i32) -> f32 {
|
|
; check: digraph %nonsense {
|
|
; regex: I=\binst\d+\b
|
|
; check: label="{ebb0 | <$(BRZ=$I)>brz ebb2 | <$(JUMP=$I)>jump ebb1}"]
|
|
|
|
ebb0(v0: i32, v1: i32):
|
|
brz v1, ebb2 ; unordered: ebb0:$BRZ -> ebb2
|
|
v2 = iconst.i32 0
|
|
jump ebb1(v2) ; unordered: ebb0:$JUMP -> ebb1
|
|
|
|
ebb1(v5: i32):
|
|
return v0
|
|
|
|
ebb2:
|
|
v100 = f32const 0.0
|
|
return v100
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
`test domtree`
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
Compute the dominator tree of each function and validate it against the
|
|
``dominates:`` annotations::
|
|
|
|
test domtree
|
|
|
|
function %test(i32) {
|
|
ebb0(v0: i32):
|
|
jump ebb1 ; dominates: ebb1
|
|
ebb1:
|
|
brz v0, ebb3 ; dominates: ebb3
|
|
jump ebb2 ; dominates: ebb2
|
|
ebb2:
|
|
jump ebb3
|
|
ebb3:
|
|
return
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Every reachable extended basic block except for the entry block has an
|
|
*immediate dominator* which is a jump or branch instruction. This test passes
|
|
if the ``dominates:`` annotations on the immediate dominator instructions are
|
|
both correct and complete.
|
|
|
|
This test also sends the computed CFG post-order through filecheck.
|
|
|
|
`test legalizer`
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
Legalize each function for the specified target ISA and run the resulting
|
|
function through filecheck. This test command can be used to validate the
|
|
encodings selected for legal instructions as well as the instruction
|
|
transformations performed by the legalizer.
|
|
|
|
`test regalloc`
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
Test the register allocator.
|
|
|
|
First, each function is legalized for the specified target ISA. This is
|
|
required for register allocation since the instruction encodings provide
|
|
register class constraints to the register allocator.
|
|
|
|
Second, the register allocator is run on the function, inserting spill code and
|
|
assigning registers and stack slots to all values.
|
|
|
|
The resulting function is then run through filecheck.
|
|
|
|
`test binemit`
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
Test the emission of binary machine code.
|
|
|
|
The functions must contains instructions that are annotated with both encodings
|
|
and value locations (registers or stack slots). For instructions that are
|
|
annotated with a `bin:` directive, the emitted hexadecimal machine code for
|
|
that instruction is compared to the directive::
|
|
|
|
test binemit
|
|
isa riscv
|
|
|
|
function %int32() {
|
|
ebb0:
|
|
[-,%x5] v0 = iconst.i32 1
|
|
[-,%x6] v1 = iconst.i32 2
|
|
[R#0c,%x7] v10 = iadd v0, v1 ; bin: 006283b3
|
|
[R#200c,%x8] v11 = isub v0, v1 ; bin: 40628433
|
|
return
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
If any instructions are unencoded (indicated with a `[-]` encoding field), they
|
|
will be encoded using the same mechanism as the legalizer uses. However,
|
|
illegal instructions for the ISA won't be expanded into other instruction
|
|
sequences. Instead the test will fail.
|
|
|
|
Value locations must be present if they are required to compute the binary
|
|
bits. Missing value locations will cause the test to crash.
|
|
|
|
`test simple-gvn`
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Test the simple GVN pass.
|
|
|
|
The simple GVN pass is run on each function, and then results are run
|
|
through filecheck.
|
|
|
|
`test licm`
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Test the LICM pass.
|
|
|
|
The LICM pass is run on each function, and then results are run
|
|
through filecheck.
|
|
|
|
`test dce`
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Test the DCE pass.
|
|
|
|
The DCE pass is run on each function, and then results are run
|
|
through filecheck.
|
|
|
|
`test shrink`
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Test the instruction shrinking pass.
|
|
|
|
The shrink pass is run on each function, and then results are run
|
|
through filecheck.
|
|
|
|
`test preopt`
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Test the preopt pass.
|
|
|
|
The preopt pass is run on each function, and then results are run
|
|
through filecheck.
|
|
|
|
`test postopt`
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Test the postopt pass.
|
|
|
|
The postopt pass is run on each function, and then results are run
|
|
through filecheck.
|
|
|
|
`test compile`
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
Test the whole code generation pipeline.
|
|
|
|
Each function is passed through the full ``Context::compile()`` function
|
|
which is normally used to compile code. This type of test often depends
|
|
on assertions or verifier errors, but it is also possible to use
|
|
filecheck directives which will be matched against the final form of the
|
|
Cretonne IR right before binary machine code emission.
|
