// Random ideas for the X86 backend.
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-Missing features:
- - Support for SSE4: http://www.intel.com/software/penryn
-http://softwarecommunity.intel.com/isn/Downloads/Intel%20SSE4%20Programming%20Reference.pdf
- - support for 3DNow!
- - weird abis?
+We should add support for the "movbe" instruction, which does a byte-swapping
+copy (3-addr bswap + memory support?) This is available on Atom processors.
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
Evaluate what the best way to codegen sdiv X, (2^C) is. For X/8, we currently
get this:
-int %test1(int %X) {
- %Y = div int %X, 8
- ret int %Y
+define i32 @test1(i32 %X) {
+ %Y = sdiv i32 %X, 8
+ ret i32 %Y
}
_test1:
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-%X = weak global int 0
-
-void %foo(int %N) {
- %N = cast int %N to uint
- %tmp.24 = setgt int %N, 0
- br bool %tmp.24, label %no_exit, label %return
-
-no_exit:
- %indvar = phi uint [ 0, %entry ], [ %indvar.next, %no_exit ]
- %i.0.0 = cast uint %indvar to int
- volatile store int %i.0.0, int* %X
- %indvar.next = add uint %indvar, 1
- %exitcond = seteq uint %indvar.next, %N
- br bool %exitcond, label %return, label %no_exit
-
-return:
- ret void
-}
-
-compiles into:
-
- .text
- .align 4
- .globl _foo
-_foo:
- movl 4(%esp), %eax
- cmpl $1, %eax
- jl LBB_foo_4 # return
-LBB_foo_1: # no_exit.preheader
- xorl %ecx, %ecx
-LBB_foo_2: # no_exit
- movl L_X$non_lazy_ptr, %edx
- movl %ecx, (%edx)
- incl %ecx
- cmpl %eax, %ecx
- jne LBB_foo_2 # no_exit
-LBB_foo_3: # return.loopexit
-LBB_foo_4: # return
- ret
-
-We should hoist "movl L_X$non_lazy_ptr, %edx" out of the loop after
-remateralization is implemented. This can be accomplished with 1) a target
-dependent LICM pass or 2) makeing SelectDAG represent the whole function.

The following tests perform worse with LSR:
lambda, siod, optimizer-eval, ackermann, hash2, nestedloop, strcat, and Treesor.
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-We are generating far worse code than gcc:
-
-volatile short X, Y;
-
-void foo(int N) {
- int i;
- for (i = 0; i < N; i++) { X = i; Y = i*4; }
-}
-
-LBB1_1: # entry.bb_crit_edge
- xorl %ecx, %ecx
- xorw %dx, %dx
-LBB1_2: # bb
- movl L_X$non_lazy_ptr, %esi
- movw %cx, (%esi)
- movl L_Y$non_lazy_ptr, %esi
- movw %dx, (%esi)
- addw $4, %dx
- incl %ecx
- cmpl %eax, %ecx
- jne LBB1_2 # bb
-
-vs.
-
- xorl %edx, %edx
- movl L_X$non_lazy_ptr-"L00000000001$pb"(%ebx), %esi
- movl L_Y$non_lazy_ptr-"L00000000001$pb"(%ebx), %ecx
-L4:
- movw %dx, (%esi)
- leal 0(,%edx,4), %eax
- movw %ax, (%ecx)
- addl $1, %edx
- cmpl %edx, %edi
- jne L4
-
-This is due to the lack of post regalloc LICM.

Teach the coalescer to coalesce vregs of different register classes. e.g. FR32 /
FR64 to VR128.
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-mov $reg, 48(%esp)
-...
-leal 48(%esp), %eax
-mov %eax, (%esp)
-call _foo
-
-Obviously it would have been better for the first mov (or any op) to store
-directly %esp[0] if there are no other uses.
-
-//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-
Adding to the list of cmp / test poor codegen issues:
int test(__m128 *A, __m128 *B) {
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-If shorter, we should use things like:
-movzwl %ax, %eax
-instead of:
-andl $65535, %EAX
-
-The former can also be used when the two-addressy nature of the 'and' would
-require a copy to be inserted (in X86InstrInfo::convertToThreeAddress).
-
-//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-
-Another instruction selector deficiency:
-
-void %bar() {
- %tmp = load int (int)** %foo
- %tmp = tail call int %tmp( int 3 )
- ret void
-}
-
-_bar:
- subl $12, %esp
- movl L_foo$non_lazy_ptr, %eax
- movl (%eax), %eax
- call *%eax
- addl $12, %esp
- ret
-
-The current isel scheme will not allow the load to be folded in the call since
-the load's chain result is read by the callseq_start.
-
-//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-
For this:
int test(int a)
However, if we care more about code size, then imull is better. It's two bytes
shorter than movl + leal.
+On a Pentium M, both variants have the same characteristics with regard
+to throughput; however, the multiplication has a latency of four cycles, as
+opposed to two cycles for the movl+lea variant.

__builtin_ffs codegen is messy.
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-Currently we don't have elimination of redundant stack manipulations. Consider
-the code:
-
-int %main() {
-entry:
- call fastcc void %test1( )
- call fastcc void %test2( sbyte* cast (void ()* %test1 to sbyte*) )
- ret int 0
-}
-
-declare fastcc void %test1()
-
-declare fastcc void %test2(sbyte*)
-
-
-This currently compiles to:
-
- subl $16, %esp
- call _test5
- addl $12, %esp
- subl $16, %esp
- movl $_test5, (%esp)
- call _test6
- addl $12, %esp
-
-The add\sub pair is really unneeded here.

Consider the expansion of:

-This is a "commutable two-address" register coallescing deficiency:

- %tmp8 = shufflevector <4 x float> %V, <4 x float> undef,
- <4 x i32> < i32 3, i32 2, i32 1, i32 0 >
- %add = add <4 x float> %tmp8, %V
- ret <4 x float> %add

-
-this codegens to:
-
-_test1:
- pshufd $27, %xmm0, %xmm1

-We aren't matching RMW instructions aggressively
-enough. Here's a reduced testcase (more in PR1160):

- %A = load i32* %huge_ptr ; <i32> [#uses=1]
- %B = load i32* %target_ptr ; <i32> [#uses=1]

The following code:

-For this code:

- %bitptr.6 = phi i32 [ %tmp5571104.1, %cond_next599 ], [ %tmp4921049, %cond_true336 ], [ %bitptr.7, %bb493 ] ; <i32> [#uses=4]

- %tmp607 = load i8* %tmp606, align 1 ; <i8> [#uses=1]
-
-We produce this:
-
-LBB4_70: # cond_next603
- movl -20(%ebp), %esi
- movl L_tables$non_lazy_ptr-"L4$pb"(%esi), %esi
-
-However, ICC caches this information before the loop and produces this:
-
- movl 88(%esp), %eax #481.12
-
-//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-
This code:
%tmp659 = icmp slt i16 %tmp654, 0 ; <i1> [#uses=1]
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-Consider:
-
-#include <inttypes.h>
-uint64_t a;
-uint16_t b;
-uint64_t mul(void) {
- return a * b;
-}
-
-Currently, we generate the following:
-
-mul:
- movzwl b, %ecx
- movl %ecx, %eax
- mull a
- imull a+4, %ecx
- addl %edx, %ecx
- movl %ecx, %edx
- ret
-
-llvm should be able to commute the addl so that the movl isn't necessary.
-
-//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-
Consider:
int test(unsigned long a, unsigned long b) { return -(a < b); }
sbbl %ecx, %ecx
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+Take the following code (from
+http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16541):
+
+extern unsigned char first_one[65536];
+int FirstOnet(unsigned long long arg1)
+{
+ if (arg1 >> 48)
+ return (first_one[arg1 >> 48]);
+ return 0;
+}
+
+
+The following code is currently generated:
+FirstOnet:
+ movl 8(%esp), %eax
+ cmpl $65536, %eax
+ movl 4(%esp), %ecx
+ jb .LBB1_2 # UnifiedReturnBlock
+.LBB1_1: # ifthen
+ shrl $16, %eax
+ movzbl first_one(%eax), %eax
+ ret
+.LBB1_2: # UnifiedReturnBlock
+ xorl %eax, %eax
+ ret
+
+There are a few possible improvements here:
+1. We should be able to eliminate the dead load into %ecx
+2. We could change the "movl 8(%esp), %eax" into
+ "movzwl 10(%esp), %eax"; this lets us change the cmpl
+ into a testl, which is shorter, and eliminate the shift.
+
+We could also in theory eliminate the branch by using a conditional
+for the address of the load, but that seems unlikely to be worthwhile
+in general.
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+We compile this function:
+
+define i32 @foo(i32 %a, i32 %b, i32 %c, i8 zeroext %d) nounwind {

+
+bb: ; preds = %entry
+ %tmp6 = add i32 %b, %a ; <i32> [#uses=1]
+ ret i32 %tmp6
+
+bb7: ; preds = %entry

+LBB1_1: # bb
+ addl %edx, %eax
+ ret
+LBB1_2: # bb7
+ movl %edx, %eax
+ subl %ecx, %eax

+
+The coalescer could coalesce "edx" with "eax" to avoid the movl in LBB1_2
+if it commuted the addl in LBB1_1.

+
+Rather than spilling the result of the last addsd in the loop, we should have
+insert a copy to split the interval (one for the duration of the loop, one
+extending to the fall through). The register pressure in the loop isn't high
+enough to warrant the spill.
+
+Also check why xmm7 is not used at all in the function.

+ movl 12(%ebp), %eax

+void vec_mpys1(int y[], const int x[], int scaler) {
+int i;
+for (i = 0; i < 150; i++)
+ y[i] += (((long long)scaler * (long long)x[i]) >> 31);
+}
+
+Compiles to this loop with GCC 3.x:
+
+.L5:
+ movl %ebx, %eax
+ imull (%edi,%ecx,4)
+ shrdl $31, %edx, %eax
+ addl %eax, (%esi,%ecx,4)
+ incl %ecx
+ cmpl $149, %ecx
+ jle .L5
+
+llvm-gcc compiles it to the much uglier:
+
+LBB1_1: ## bb1
+ movl 24(%esp), %eax
+ movl (%eax,%edi,4), %ebx
+ movl %ebx, %ebp
+ imull %esi, %ebp

+
+Test instructions can be eliminated by using EFLAGS values from arithmetic
+instructions. This is currently not done for mul, and, or, xor, neg, shl,
+sra, srl, shld, shrd, atomic ops, and others. It is also currently not done
+for read-modify-write instructions. It is also current not done if the
+OF or CF flags are needed.
+
+The shift operators have the complication that when the shift count is
+zero, EFLAGS is not set, so they can only subsume a test instruction if
+the shift count is known to be non-zero. Also, using the EFLAGS value
+from a shift is apparently very slow on some x86 implementations.
+
+In read-modify-write instructions, the root node in the isel match is
+the store, and isel has no way for the use of the EFLAGS result of the
+arithmetic to be remapped to the new node.
+
+Add and subtract instructions set OF on signed overflow and CF on unsiged
+overflow, while test instructions always clear OF and CF. In order to
+replace a test with an add or subtract in a situation where OF or CF is
+needed, codegen must be able to prove that the operation cannot see
+signed or unsigned overflow, respectively.

+
+memcpy/memmove do not lower to SSE copies when possible. A silly example is:
+define <16 x float> @foo(<16 x float> %A) nounwind {
+ %tmp = alloca <16 x float>, align 16
+ %tmp2 = alloca <16 x float>, align 16
+ store <16 x float> %A, <16 x float>* %tmp
+ %s = bitcast <16 x float>* %tmp to i8*
+ %s2 = bitcast <16 x float>* %tmp2 to i8*
+ call void @llvm.memcpy.i64(i8* %s, i8* %s2, i64 64, i32 16)
+ %R = load <16 x float>* %tmp2
+ ret <16 x float> %R
+}
+
+declare void @llvm.memcpy.i64(i8* nocapture, i8* nocapture, i64, i32) nounwind
+
+which compiles to:
+
+_foo:
+ subl $140, %esp
+ movaps %xmm3, 112(%esp)
+ movaps %xmm2, 96(%esp)
+ movaps %xmm1, 80(%esp)
+ movaps %xmm0, 64(%esp)
+ movl 60(%esp), %eax
+ movl %eax, 124(%esp)
+ movl 56(%esp), %eax
+ movl %eax, 120(%esp)
+ movl 52(%esp), %eax
+ <many many more 32-bit copies>
+ movaps (%esp), %xmm0
+ movaps 16(%esp), %xmm1
+ movaps 32(%esp), %xmm2
+ movaps 48(%esp), %xmm3
+ addl $140, %esp
+ ret
+
+On Nehalem, it may even be cheaper to just use movups when unaligned than to
+fall back to lower-granularity chunks.

+
+Implement processor-specific optimizations for parity with GCC on these
+processors. GCC does two optimizations:
+
+1. ix86_pad_returns inserts a noop before ret instructions if immediately
+ preceeded by a conditional branch or is the target of a jump.
+2. ix86_avoid_jump_misspredicts inserts noops in cases where a 16-byte block of
+ code contains more than 3 branches.
+
+The first one is done for all AMDs, Core2, and "Generic"
+The second one is done for: Atom, Pentium Pro, all AMDs, Pentium 4, Nocona,
+ Core 2, and "Generic"

+Testcase:
+int a(int x) { return (x & 127) > 31; }
+
+Current output:
+ movl 4(%esp), %eax
+ andl $127, %eax
+ cmpl $31, %eax
+ seta %al
+ movzbl %al, %eax
+ ret
+
+Ideal output:
+ xorl %eax, %eax
+ testl $96, 4(%esp)
+ setne %al
+ ret
+
+This should definitely be done in instcombine, canonicalizing the range
+condition into a != condition. We get this IR:
+
+define i32 @a(i32 %x) nounwind readnone {
+entry:
+ %0 = and i32 %x, 127 ; <i32> [#uses=1]
+ %1 = icmp ugt i32 %0, 31 ; <i1> [#uses=1]
+ %2 = zext i1 %1 to i32 ; <i32> [#uses=1]
+ ret i32 %2
+}
+
+Instcombine prefers to strength reduce relational comparisons to equality
+comparisons when possible, this should be another case of that. This could
+be handled pretty easily in InstCombiner::visitICmpInstWithInstAndIntCst, but it
+looks like InstCombiner::visitICmpInstWithInstAndIntCst should really already
+be redesigned to use ComputeMaskedBits and friends.
+
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+Testcase:
+int x(int a) { return (a&0xf0)>>4; }
+
+Current output:
+ movl 4(%esp), %eax
+ shrl $4, %eax
+ andl $15, %eax
+ ret
+
+Ideal output:
+ movzbl 4(%esp), %eax
+ shrl $4, %eax
+ ret
+
+//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
+
+Testcase:
+int x(int a) { return (a & 0x80) ? 0x100 : 0; }
+int y(int a) { return (a & 0x80) *2; }
+
+Current:
+ testl $128, 4(%esp)
+ setne %al
+ movzbl %al, %eax
+ shll $8, %eax
+ ret
+
+Better:
+ movl 4(%esp), %eax
+ addl %eax, %eax
+ andl $256, %eax
+ ret
+
+This is another general instcombine transformation that is profitable on all
+targets. In LLVM IR, these functions look like this:
+
+define i32 @x(i32 %a) nounwind readnone {
+entry:
+ %0 = and i32 %a, 128
+ %1 = icmp eq i32 %0, 0
+ %iftmp.0.0 = select i1 %1, i32 0, i32 256
+ ret i32 %iftmp.0.0
+}
+
+define i32 @y(i32 %a) nounwind readnone {
+entry:
+ %0 = shl i32 %a, 1
+ %1 = and i32 %0, 256
+ ret i32 %1
+}
+
+Replacing an icmp+select with a shift should always be considered profitable in
+instcombine.
