[RISCV] Make use of SHXADD instructions in RVV spill/reload code.
ClosedPublic

Details

Summary

We can use SH1ADD, SH2ADD, SH3ADD to multipy by 3, 5, and 9 respectively.

We could extend this to 3, 5, or 9 multiplied by a power 2 by also
emitting a SLLI.

While there remove the code that looks up TII. We're already a
member of RISCV's TII.

LGTM w/minor comments.

Can you commit this separately as a cleanup please?

Aside: Shouldn't this simply be one of options inside movImm?

That's a good point. movImm probably handles this correctly.

I'm considering merging this with it's one caller. There might be some more optimization opportunities if we include the ADD/SUB to SP.

For example, vlenb * 7 + sp could become

csrrd a0, vlenb
sub sp, sp, a0
slli a0, a0, 3
add sp, sp, a0

instead of

csrrd a0, vlenb
slli a1, a0, 3
sub a0, a1, a0
add sp, sp, a0

That would save a temporary register.

Separate commit please. :)

Any chance this could be done in a post-process combine like thing? Duplicating what appears to be generic multiple improvements seems like poor code structure.

Yes separate commit.

I'm not sure if we could do it in a generic combine. This code runs after register allocation and needs to scavenge a free register. An emergency spill will happen if it can't find one. Avoiding emergency spills would be one of the benefits of saving the use of a temporary register. If did a generic combine later we'd also have to remove the emergency spill.

1764–1765

Will do
