Summary: Backends can use setInsertFencesForAtomic to signal to the middle-end that montonic is the only memory ordering they can accept for stores/loads/rmws/cmpxchg. The code lowering those accesses with a stronger ordering to fences + monotonic accesses is currently living in SelectionDAGBuilder.cpp. In this patch I propose moving this logic out of it for several reasons: - There is lots of redundancy to avoid: extremely similar logic already exists in AtomicExpand. - The current code in SelectionDAGBuilder does not use any target-hooks, it does the same transformation for every backend that requires it - As a result it is plain *unsound*, as it was apparently designed for ARM. It happens to mostly work for the other targets because they are extremely conservative, but Power for example had to switch to AtomicExpand to be able to use lwsync safely (see r218331). - Because it produces IR-level fences, it cannot be made sound ! This is noted in the C++11 standard (section 29.3, page 1140): ``` Fences cannot, in general, be used to restore sequential consistency for atomic operations with weaker ordering semantics. ``` It can also be seen by the following example (called IRIW in the litterature): ``` atomic<int> x = y = 0; int r1, r2, r3, r4; Thread 0: x.store(1); Thread 1: y.store(1); Thread 2: r1 = x.load(); r2 = y.load(); Thread 3: r3 = y.load(); r4 = x.load(); ``` r1 = r3 = 1 and r2 = r4 = 0 is impossible as long as the accesses are all seq_cst. But if they are lowered to monotonic accesses, no amount of fences can prevent it.. This patch does three things (I could cut it into parts, but then some of them would not be tested/testable, please tell me if you would prefer that): - it provides a default implementation for emitLeadingFence/emitTrailingFence in terms of IR-level fences, that mimic the original logic of SelectionDAGBuilder. As we saw above, this is unsound, but the best that can be done without knowing the targets well (and there is a comment warning about this risk). - it then switches Mips/Sparc/XCore to use AtomicExpand, relying on this default implementation (that exactly replicates the logic of SelectionDAGBuilder, so no functional change) - it finally erase this logic from SelectionDAGBuilder as it is dead-code. Ideally, each target would define its own override for emitLeading/TrailingFence using target-specific fences, but I do not know the Sparc/Mips/XCore memory model well enough to do this, and they appear to be dealing fine with the ARM-inspired default expansion for now (probably because they are overly conservative, as Power was). If anyone wants to compile fences more agressively on these platforms, the long comment should make it clear why he should first override emitLeading/TrailingFence.

To-do
-----
* Keep the address of the constant pool in a register instead of forming its
address all of the time.
* We can fold small constant offsets into the %hi/%lo references to constant
pool addresses as well.
* When in V9 mode, register allocate %icc[0-3].
* Add support for isel'ing UMUL_LOHI instead of marking it as Expand.
* Emit the 'Branch on Integer Register with Prediction' instructions. It's
not clear how to write a pattern for this though:
float %t1(int %a, int* %p) {
%C = seteq int %a, 0
br bool %C, label %T, label %F
T:
store int 123, int* %p
br label %F
F:
ret float undef
}
codegens to this:
t1:
save -96, %o6, %o6
1) subcc %i0, 0, %l0
1) bne .LBBt1_2 ! F
nop
.LBBt1_1: ! T
or %g0, 123, %l0
st %l0, [%i1]
.LBBt1_2: ! F
restore %g0, %g0, %g0
retl
nop
1) should be replaced with a brz in V9 mode.
* Same as above, but emit conditional move on register zero (p192) in V9
mode. Testcase:
int %t1(int %a, int %b) {
%C = seteq int %a, 0
%D = select bool %C, int %a, int %b
ret int %D
}
* Emit MULX/[SU]DIVX instructions in V9 mode instead of fiddling
with the Y register, if they are faster.
* Codegen bswap(load)/store(bswap) -> load/store ASI
* Implement frame pointer elimination, e.g. eliminate save/restore for
leaf fns.
* Fill delay slots
* Use %g0 directly to materialize 0. No instruction is required.
