[SelectionDAG] Optimize expansion for rotates/funnel shifts
ClosedPublic

Authored by RKSimon on Oct 25 2021, 5:45 AM.

Details

Summary

(Branched from D108058 as getting this completed should help unlock some other WIP patches).

If the type of a funnel shift needs to be expanded, expand it to two funnel shifts instead of regular shifts. For constant shifts, this doesn't make much difference, but for variable shifts it allows a more optimal lowering.

Also use the optimized funnel shift lowering for rotates.

Original Patch: @efriedma (Eli Friedman)

Does passing "false" to this really solve the original problem I raised? That makes getShiftAmountTy use pointer type, but pointer type on some targets is i16 which wouldn't be enough to represent a shift amount for an i65356. Should this instead use the getShiftAmountTyForConstant helper? The name of that function is outdated.

Sorry I missed that comment on the other phab

I'm working on a patch to fold getShiftAmountTyForConstant into TLI.getShiftAmountTy and then we'll never have to thing about this again.

Use getShiftAmountTyForConstant

Code change LGTM. X86 and RISCV tests LGTM.

Add a full stop at the end of this comment to match the other comments in this function.

@nemanjai The PPC codegen is no longer branchless, how much of an issue is that?

Arm parts obviously look great

rebase (for real this time....)

FWIW, the PPC changes look fine.

These OR's with zero seem odd, but they are essentially just register copies so there isn't an issue with performance there.

Thanks everyone - anyone willing to officially accept this?

Drop the false. I don't think it is needed.

Use default getShiftAmountTy arguments

RKSimon updated this revision to Diff 382434.Oct 26 2021, 12:56 PM

using default legal type args caused some x86 instruction reordering

I finally remembered to add the missing '.' to the end of the comment

ping - any more comments?
