This patch removes the VSHRC register class (based on D20310) and adds
exploitation of the Power9 sub-word integer loads into VSX registers as well
as vector sign extensions.
The new instructions are useful for a few purposes:
Int to Fp conversions of 1 or 2-byte values loaded from memory
Building vectors of 1 or 2-byte integers with values loaded from memory
Storing individual 1 or 2-byte elements from integer vectors
This patch implements all of those uses.

PowerPC assembly code in the wild, so it seems, has things like this:
bc+ 12, 28, .L9
This is a bit odd because the '+' here becomes part of the BO field, and the BO
field is otherwise the first operand. Nevertheless, the ISA specification does
clearly say that the +- hint syntax applies to all conditional-branch mnemonics
(that test either CTR or a condition register, although not the forms which
check both), both basic and extended, so this is supposed to be valid.
This introduces some asm-parser-only definitions which take only the upper
three bits from the specified BO value, and the lower two bits are implied by
the +- suffix (via some associated aliases).
Fixes PR23646.

This patch adds support for the ISA 2.07 additions involving the
branch history rolling buffer and event-based branching. These will
not be used by typical applications, so built-in support is not
required. They will only be available via inline assembly.
Assembly/disassembly tests are included in the patch.

Add assembler/disassembler support for dcbt/dcbtst (and aliases) with the hint
field specified (non-zero). Unforunately, the syntax for this instruction is
special in that it differs for server vs. embedded cores:
dcbt ra, rb, th [server]
dcbt th, ra, rb [embedded]
where th can be omitted when it is 0. dcbtst is the same. Thus we need to play
games in the parser and the printer to flip the operands around on the embedded
cores. We'll use the server syntax as the default (binutils currently uses the
embedded form by default, but IBM is changing that).
We also stop marking dcbtst as having unmodeled side effects (this is not
necessary, it is just a hint like dcbt -- noticed by inspection, so no separate
test case).

This patch adds Hardware Transaction Memory (HTM) support supported by ISA 2.07
(POWER8). The intrinsic support is based on GCC one [1], but currently only the
'PowerPC HTM Low Level Built-in Function' are implemented.
The HTM instructions follows the RC ones and the transaction initiation result
is set on RC0 (with exception of tcheck). Currently approach is to create a
register copy from CR0 to GPR and comapring. Although this is suboptimal, since
the branch could be taken directly by comparing the CR0 value, it generates code
correctly on both test and branch and just return value. A possible future
optimization could be elimitate the MFCR instruction to branch directly.
The HTM usage requires a recently newer kernel with PPC HTM enabled. Tested on
powerpc64 and powerpc64le.
This is send along a clang patch to enabled the builtins and option switch.

This adds support for the QPX vector instruction set, which is used by the
enhanced A2 cores on the IBM BG/Q supercomputers. QPX vectors are 256 bytes
wide, holding 4 double-precision floating-point values. Boolean values, modeled
here as <4 x i1> are actually also represented as floating-point values
(essentially { -1, 1 } for { false, true }). QPX shares many features with
Altivec and VSX, but is distinct from both of them. One major difference is
that, instead of adding completely-separate vector registers, QPX vector
registers are extensions of the scalar floating-point registers (lane 0 is the
corresponding scalar floating-point value). The operations supported on QPX
vectors mirrors that supported on the scalar floating-point values (with some
additional ones for permutations and logical/comparison operations).
I've been maintaining this support out-of-tree, as part of the bgclang project,
for several years. This is not the entire bgclang patch set, but is most of the
subset that can be cleanly integrated into LLVM proper at this time. Adding
this to the LLVM backend is part of my efforts to rebase bgclang to the current
LLVM trunk, but is independently useful (especially for codes that use LLVM as
a JIT in library form).
The assembler/disassembler test coverage is complete. The CodeGen test coverage
is not, but I've included some tests, and more will be added as follow-up work.

On non-Darwin PPC64, the TOC reload needs to come directly after the bctrl
instruction (for indirect calls) because the 'bctrl/ld 2, 40(1)' instruction
sequence is interpreted by the unwinding code in libgcc. To make sure these
occur as a pair, as with other pairings interpreted by the linker, fuse the two
instructions into one instruction (for code generation only).
In the future, we might wish to do this by emitting CFI directives instead,
but this solution is simpler, and mirrors what GCC does. Additional discussion
on this point is contained in the PR.
Fixes PR22015.

when let can do the same thing. Keep the 64bit variants as codegen-only.
While they have a different register class, the encoding is the same for
32bit and 64bit mode. Having both present would otherwise confuse the
disassembler.
llvm-svn: 214636
During an indirect function call sequence on the 64-bit SVR4 ABI,
generate code must load and then restore the TOC register.
This does not use a regular LOAD instruction since the TOC
register r2 is marked as reserved. Instead, the are two
special instruction patterns:
let RST = 2, DS = 2 in
def LDinto_toc: DSForm_1a<58, 0, (outs), (ins g8rc:$reg),
"ld 2, 8($reg)", IIC_LdStLD,
[(PPCload_toc i64:$reg)]>, isPPC64;
let RST = 2, DS = 10, RA = 1 in
def LDtoc_restore : DSForm_1a<58, 0, (outs), (ins),
"ld 2, 40(1)", IIC_LdStLD,
[(PPCtoc_restore)]>, isPPC64;
Note that these not only restrict the destination of the
load to r2, but they also restrict the *source* of the
load to particular address combinations. The latter is
a problem when we want to support the ELFv2 ABI, since
there the TOC save slot is no longer at 40(1).
This patch replaces those two instructions with a single
instruction pattern that only hard-codes r2 as destination,
but supports generic addresses as source. This will allow
supporting the ELFv2 ABI, and also helps generate more
efficient code for calls to absolute addresses (allowing
simplification of the ppc64-calls.ll test case).

VSX is an ISA extension supported on the POWER7 and later cores that enhances
floating-point vector and scalar capabilities. Among other things, this adds
<2 x double> support and generally helps to reduce register pressure.
The interesting part of this ISA feature is the register configuration: there
are 64 new 128-bit vector registers, the 32 of which are super-registers of the
existing 32 scalar floating-point registers, and the second 32 of which overlap
with the 32 Altivec vector registers. This makes things like vector insertion
and extraction tricky: this can be free but only if we force a restriction to
the right register subclass when needed. A new "minipass" PPCVSXCopy takes care
of this (although it could do a more-optimal job of it; see the comment about
unnecessary copies below).
Please note that, currently, VSX is not enabled by default when targeting
anything because it is not yet ready for that. The assembler and disassembler
are fully implemented and tested. However:
- CodeGen support causes miscompiles; test-suite runtime failures:
MultiSource/Benchmarks/FreeBench/distray/distray
MultiSource/Benchmarks/McCat/08-main/main
MultiSource/Benchmarks/Olden/voronoi/voronoi

MultiSource/Benchmarks/tramp3d-v4/tramp3d-v4
SingleSource/Benchmarks/CoyoteBench/almabench
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc/matmul_f64_4x4
- The lowering currently falls back to using Altivec instructions far more
than it should. Worse, there are some things that are scalarized through the
stack that shouldn't be.
- A lot of unnecessary copies make it past the optimizers, and this needs to
be fixed.
- Many more regression tests are needed.
Normally, I'd fix these things prior to committing, but there are some
students and other contributors who would like to work this, and so it makes
sense to move this development process upstream where it can be subject to the
regular code-review procedures.

This change enables tracking i1 values in the PowerPC backend using the
condition register bits. These bits can be treated on PowerPC as separate
registers; individual bit operations (and, or, xor, etc.) are supported.
Tracking booleans in CR bits has several advantages:
- Reduction in register pressure (because we no longer need GPRs to store
boolean values).
- Logical operations on booleans can be handled more efficiently; we used to
have to move all results from comparisons into GPRs, perform promoted
logical operations in GPRs, and then move the result back into condition
register bits to be used by conditional branches. This can be very
inefficient, because the throughput of these CR <-> GPR moves have high
latency and low throughput (especially when other associated instructions
are accounted for).
- On the POWER7 and similar cores, we can increase total throughput by using
the CR bits. CR bit operations have a dedicated functional unit.
Most of this is more-or-less mechanical: Adjustments were needed in the
calling-convention code, support was added for spilling/restoring individual
condition-register bits, and conditional branch instruction definitions taking
specific CR bits were added (plus patterns and code for generating bit-level
operations).
This is enabled by default when running at -O2 and higher. For -O0 and -O1,
where the ability to debug is more important, this feature is disabled by
default. Individual CR bits do not have assigned DWARF register numbers,
and storing values in CR bits makes them invisible to the debugger.
It is critical, however, that we don't move i1 values that have been promoted
to larger values (such as those passed as function arguments) into bit
registers only to quickly turn around and move the values back into GPRs (such
as happens when values are returned by functions). A pair of target-specific
DAG combines are added to remove the trunc/extends in:
trunc(binary-ops(binary-ops(zext(x), zext(y)), ...)
and:
zext(binary-ops(binary-ops(trunc(x), trunc(y)), ...)
In short, we only want to use CR bits where some of the i1 values come from
comparisons or are used by conditional branches or selects. To put it another
way, if we can do the entire i1 computation in GPRs, then we probably should
(on the POWER7, the GPR-operation throughput is higher, and for all cores, the
CR <-> GPR moves are expensive).

The tests for the disassembler were adapted from the encoder tests, and for the
most part, the output from the disassembler matches that encoder-test inputs.
There are some places where more-informative mnemonics could be produced
(notably for the branch instructions), and those cases are noted in the tests
with FIXMEs.
Future work includes:
- Generating more-informative mnemonics when possible (this may also be done
in the printer).
- Remove the dependence on positional "numbered" operand-to-variable mapping
(for both encoding and decoding).
- Internally using 64-bit instruction variants in 64-bit mode (if this turns
out to matter).

Aside from a few minor latency corrections, the major change here is a new
hazard recognizer which focuses on better dispatch-group formation on the
POWER7. As with the PPC970's hazard recognizer, the most important thing it
does is avoid load-after-store hazards within the same dispatch group. It uses
the POWER7's special dispatch-group-terminating nop instruction (instead of
inserting multiple regular nop instructions). This new hazard recognizer makes
use of the scheduling dependency graph itself, built using AA information, to
robustly detect the possibility of load-after-store hazards.

This adds the IIC_ prefix to the instruction itinerary class names, giving the
PPC backend a naming convention for itinerary classes that is more consistent
with that used by the X86 and ARM backends.
Instruction scheduling in the PPC backend needs a bunch of cleanup and
improvement (especially for the ooo cores). This is just a preliminary step.
No functionality change intended.

This patch adds a couple of Book II instructions (isync, icbi) to the

including associated extended mnemonics. Again, those that are not yet
supported as marked as FIXME.

This is prep. work for the implementation of optimizeCompare. Many PPC
instructions have 'record' forms (in almost all cases, this means that the RC
bit is set) that cause the result of the instruction to be compared with zero,
and the result of that comparison saved in a predefined condition register. In
order to add the record forms of the instructions without too much
copy-and-paste, the relevant functions have been refactored into multiclasses
which define both the record and normal forms.
Also, two TableGen-generated mapping functions have been added which allow
querying the instruction code for the record form given the normal form (and
vice versa).
No functionality change intended.

PowerPC has a conditional branch to the link register (return) instruction: BCLR.
This should be used any time when we'd otherwise have a conditional branch to a
return. This adds a small pass, PPCEarlyReturn, which runs just prior to the
branch selection pass (and, importantly, after block placement) to generate
these conditional returns when possible. It will also eliminate unconditional
branches to returns (these happen rarely; most of the time these have already
been tail duplicated by the time PPCEarlyReturn is invoked). This is a nice
optimization for small functions that do not maintain a stack frame.

There remain a number of patterns that cannot (and should not)
be handled by the asm parser, in particular all the Pseudo patterns.
This commit marks those patterns as isCodeGenOnly.

llvm-svn: 178008
As part of the the sequence generated to implement long double -> int
conversions, we need to perform an FADD in round-to-zero mode. This is
problematical since the FPSCR is not at all modeled at the SelectionDAG
level, and thus there is a risk of getting floating point instructions
generated out of sequence with the instructions to modify FPSCR.
The current code handles this by somewhat "special" patterns that in part
have dummy operands, and/or duplicate existing instructions, making them
awkward to handle in the asm parser.
This commit changes this by leaving the "FADD in round-to-zero mode"
as an atomic operation on the SelectionDAG level, and only split it up into
real instructions at the MI level (via custom inserter). Since at *this*
level the FPSCR *is* modeled (via the "RM" hard register), much of the
"special" stuff can just go away, and the resulting patterns can be used by
the asm parser.
No significant change in generated code expected.
