[AMDGPU] GFX11: automatically release VGPRs at the end of the shader
ClosedPublic

Authored by foad on Jun 23 2022, 7:16 AM.

Details

Summary

GFX11 has a new message type MSG_DEALLOC_VGPRS which can be used to
release a shader's VGPRs. Sending this at the end of a shader (just
before the s_endpgm) can help overall system performance in cases where
the s_endpgm would have to wait for outstanding VMEM stores to complete
before releasing the VGPRs.

Doesn't this preserve everything?

Can just check rbegin

Can also early exit on non-entry calling conventions

Yes.

That seems like it would make the code a little less neat for no real benefit, since you would have to guard against emty MBBs.
