[CodeGen] Add support for widening INSERT_SUBVECTOR operands
ClosedPublic

Authored by david-arm on May 14 2021, 8:16 AM.

Details

Summary

When attempting to return something like a <vscale x 1 x i32>
type from a function we end up trying to widen the vector by
inserting a <vscale x 1 x i32> subvector into an undefined
<vscale x 4 x i32> vector. However, during legalisation we
then attempt to widen the INSERT_SUBVECTOR operands and hit
an error in WidenVectorOperand.

This patch adds a new WidenVecOp_INSERT_SUBVECTOR function
that currently only supports inserting subvectors into undefined
vectors.

The index operand is required to be a constant. Perhaps we can be stricter here?

Ah ok, you mean we can simply use cast<ConstantSDNode> here?

Yeah, then even simplified to N->getConstantOperandVal(2) == 0. There's precedent for that elsewhere so it sounds reasonable to me.

Why is this test in sve-calling-convention-mixed.ll?

Ah, mainly because I wasn't sure where else to put it is the honest answer. :) Although I do see now that we only deal with scalar arguments and return types in this file so I can try to find somewhere else. I just wanted to avoid creating a new file for this one test that's all.
