AMDGPU: Allow additional implicit operands on MOVRELS instructions
ClosedPublic

Authored by nhaehnle on Oct 16 2016, 6:14 AM.

Details

Summary

The post-RA scheduler occasionally uses additional implicit operands when
the vector implicit operand as a whole is killed, but some subregisters
are still live because they are directly referenced later. Unfortunately,
this seems incredibly subtle to reproduce.

Fixes piglit spec/glsl-110/execution/variable-indexing/vs-temp-array-mat2-index-wr.shader_test
and others.

Can you add a test for this?

Adding a test case.

The test case is quite fragile because the problem comes from
ScheduleDAGInstrs::fixupKills, which seems to have a bunch of subtle
problems with sub-registers, and generally the code just doesn't really
do what the comments seem to think it does. But fixing that may not be
worth it since the whole thing has a FIXME on it suggesting to switch it
all to LivePhysRegs.

Would it be easier to write an MIR tests case?

Use a MIR test instead.
