10 // This file defines the target-independent scheduling interfaces which should
11 // be implemented by each target which is using TableGen based scheduling.
13 // The SchedMachineModel is defined by subtargets for three categories of data:
14 // 1. Basic properties for coarse grained instruction cost model.
15 // 2. Scheduler Read/Write resources for simple per-opcode cost model.
16 // 3. Instruction itineraties for detailed reservation tables.
18 // (1) Basic properties are defined by the SchedMachineModel
19 // class. Target hooks allow subtargets to associate opcodes with
22 // (2) A per-operand machine model can be implemented in any
23 // combination of the following ways:
25 // A. Associate per-operand SchedReadWrite types with Instructions by
26 // modifying the Instruction definition to inherit from Sched. For
27 // each subtarget, define WriteRes and ReadAdvance to associate
28 // processor resources and latency with each SchedReadWrite type.
30 // B. In each instruction definition, name an ItineraryClass. For each
31 // subtarget, define ItinRW entries to map ItineraryClass to
32 // per-operand SchedReadWrite types. Unlike method A, these types may
33 // be subtarget specific and can be directly associated with resources
34 // by defining SchedWriteRes and SchedReadAdvance.
36 // C. In the subtarget, map SchedReadWrite types to specific
37 // opcodes. This overrides any SchedReadWrite types or
38 // ItineraryClasses defined by the Instruction. As in method B, the
39 // subtarget can directly associate resources with SchedReadWrite
40 // types by defining SchedWriteRes and SchedReadAdvance.
42 // D. In either the target or subtarget, define SchedWriteVariant or
43 // SchedReadVariant to map one SchedReadWrite type onto another
44 // sequence of SchedReadWrite types. This allows dynamic selection of
45 // an instruction's machine model via custom C++ code. It also allows
46 // a machine-independent SchedReadWrite type to map to a sequence of
47 // machine-dependent types.
49 // (3) A per-pipeline-stage machine model can be implemented by providing
50 // Itineraries in addition to mapping instructions to ItineraryClasses.

127 // requires the same resource until the number of ResourceCyles
128 // specified in WriteRes expire. Setting BufferSize=1 changes this to

130 // producer/consumer stalls between instructions that use the
133 // Examples (all assume an out-of-order engine):
135 // Use BufferSize = -1 for "issue ports" fed by a unified reservation
136 // station. Here the size of the reservation station is modeled by
137 // MicroOpBufferSize, which should be the minimum size of either the
138 // register rename pool, unified reservation station, or reorder
141 // Use BufferSize = 0 for resources that force "dispatch/issue
142 // groups". (Different processors define dispath/issue
143 // differently. Here we refer to stage between decoding into micro-ops
144 // and moving them into a reservation station.) Normally NumMicroOps
145 // is sufficient to limit dispatch/issue groups. However, some
146 // processors can form groups of with only certain combinitions of
147 // instruction types. e.g. POWER7.
149 // Use BufferSize = 1 for in-order execution units. This is used for
