Generalize `tryFoldLCSSAPhi` into `tryFoldPhiAGPR` which works on any kind of PHI node (not just LCSSA ones) and attempts to create AGPR Phis more aggressively. Also adds a GFX908-only "cleanup" function `tryOptimizeAGPRPhis` which tries to minimize AGPR to AGPR copies on GFX908, which doesn't have a ACCVGPR MOV instruction (so AGPR-AGPR copies become 2 or 3 instructions as they need a VGPR temp). The reason why this is needed is because D143731 + the new `tryFoldPhiAGPR` may create a lot more PHIs (one 32xfloat PHI becomes 32 float phis), and if each PHI hits the same AGPR (like in `test_mfma_loop_agpr_init`) they will be lowered to 32 copies from the same AGPR, which will each become 2-3 instructions. Creating a VGPR cache in this case prevents all those copies from being generated (we have AGPR-VGPR copies instead which are trivial). This is a prepation patch intended to prevent regressions in D143731 when AGPRs are involved. Reviewed By: arsenm Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D144099
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
