Target Independent Opportunities:
-===-------------------------------------------------------------------------===
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-FreeBench/mason contains code like this:
+With the recent changes to make the implicit def/use set explicit in
+machineinstrs, we should change the target descriptions for 'call' instructions
+so that the .td files don't list all the call-clobbered registers as implicit
+defs. Instead, these should be added by the code generator (e.g. on the dag).
-static p_type m0u(p_type p) {
- int m[]={0, 8, 1, 2, 16, 5, 13, 7, 14, 9, 3, 4, 11, 12, 15, 10, 17, 6};
- p_type pu;
- pu.a = m[p.a];
- pu.b = m[p.b];
- pu.c = m[p.c];
- return pu;
-}
+This has a number of uses:
-We currently compile this into a memcpy from a static array into 'm', then
-a bunch of loads from m. It would be better to avoid the memcpy and just do
-loads from the static array.
+1. PPC32/64 and X86 32/64 can avoid having multiple copies of call instructions
+ for their different impdef sets.
+2. Targets with multiple calling convs (e.g. x86) which have different clobber
+ sets don't need copies of call instructions.
+3. 'Interprocedural register allocation' can be done to reduce the clobber sets
+ of calls.

On targets with expensive 64-bit multiply, we could LSR this:
for (i = ...; ++i) {
return bar(z, n) + bar(2*z, 2*n);
}
+Reassociate should handle the example in GCC PR16157.

//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
These two functions should generate the same code on big-endian systems:
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-This code:
-int rot(unsigned char b) { int a = ((b>>1) ^ (b<<7)) & 0xff; return a; }
-
-Can be improved in two ways:
-
-1. The instcombiner should eliminate the type conversions.
-2. The X86 backend should turn this into a rotate by one bit.
-
-//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-
-Add LSR exit value substitution. It'll probably be a win for Ackermann, etc.

-The loop unroller should be enhanced to be able to unroll loops that aren't
-single basic blocks. It should be able to handle stuff like this:
-
- for (i = 0; i < c1; ++i)
- if (c2 & (1 << i))
- foo
-
-where c1/c2 are constants.

Add support for conditional increments, and other related patterns. Instead

Scalar Repl cannot currently promote this testcase to 'ret long cst':

it should be extended to do so.

+quantum_sigma_x in 462.libquantum contains the following loop:
+
+ for(i=0; i<reg->size; i++)
+ {
+ /* Flip the target bit of each basis state */
+ reg->node[i].state ^= ((MAX_UNSIGNED) 1 << target);
+ }
+
+Where MAX_UNSIGNED/state is a 64-bit int. On a 32-bit platform it would be just
+so cool to turn it into something like:
+
+ long long Res = ((MAX_UNSIGNED) 1 << target);
+ if (target < 32) {
+ for(i=0; i<reg->size; i++)
+ reg->node[i].state ^= Res & 0xFFFFFFFFULL;
+ } else {
+ for(i=0; i<reg->size; i++)
+ reg->node[i].state ^= Res & 0xFFFFFFFF00000000ULL
+ }
+
+... which would only do one 32-bit XOR per loop iteration instead of two.
+
+It would also be nice to recognize the reg->size doesn't alias reg->node[i], but
+alas...
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+This isn't recognized as bswap by instcombine:
+
+unsigned int swap_32(unsigned int v) {
+ v = ((v & 0x00ff00ffU) << 8) | ((v & 0xff00ff00U) >> 8);
+ v = ((v & 0x0000ffffU) << 16) | ((v & 0xffff0000U) >> 16);
+ return v;
+}
+
+Nor is this (yes, it really is bswap):
+
+unsigned long reverse(unsigned v) {
+ unsigned t;
+ t = v ^ ((v << 16) | (v >> 16));
+ t &= ~0xff0000;
+ v = (v << 24) | (v >> 8);
+ return v ^ (t >> 8);
+}
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+These should turn into single 16-bit (unaligned?) loads on little/big endian
+processors.
+
+unsigned short read_16_le(const unsigned char *adr) {
+ return adr[0] | (adr[1] << 8);

+-instcombine should handle this transform:
+ icmp pred (sdiv X / C1 ), C2
+when X, C1, and C2 are unsigned. Similarly for udiv and signed operands.
+
+Currently InstCombine avoids this transform but will do it when the signs of
+the operands and the sign of the divide match. See the FIXME in
+InstructionCombining.cpp in the visitSetCondInst method after the switch case
+for Instruction::UDiv (around line 4447) for more details.
+
+The SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout-C++/hash and hash2 tests have examples of
+this construct.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+Instcombine misses several of these cases (see the testcase in the patch):
+http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2006-10/msg01519.html
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+viterbi speeds up *significantly* if the various "history" related copy loops
+are turned into memcpy calls at the source level. We need a "loops to memcpy"
+pass.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+Consider:
+
+typedef unsigned U32;
+typedef unsigned long long U64;
+int test (U32 *inst, U64 *regs) {
+ U64 effective_addr2;
+ U32 temp = *inst;
+ int r1 = (temp >> 20) & 0xf;
+ int b2 = (temp >> 16) & 0xf;
+ effective_addr2 = temp & 0xfff;
+ if (b2) effective_addr2 += regs[b2];
+ b2 = (temp >> 12) & 0xf;
+ if (b2) effective_addr2 += regs[b2];
+ effective_addr2 &= regs[4];
+ if ((effective_addr2 & 3) == 0)
+ return 1;
+ return 0;
+}
+
+Note that only the low 2 bits of effective_addr2 are used. On 32-bit systems,
+we don't eliminate the computation of the top half of effective_addr2 because
+we don't have whole-function selection dags. On x86, this means we use one
+extra register for the function when effective_addr2 is declared as U64 than
+when it is declared U32.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+Promote for i32 bswap can use i64 bswap + shr. Useful on targets with 64-bit
+regs and bswap, like itanium.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+LSR should know what GPR types a target has. This code:
+
+volatile short X, Y; // globals
+
+void foo(int N) {
+ int i;
+ for (i = 0; i < N; i++) { X = i; Y = i*4; }
+}
+
