[CodeGen] Error on unsupported checked multiplies early
AbandonedPublic

Details

Summary

LLVM's smul.with.overflow intrinsic isn't supported on X86 for bit
widths larger than 64, or on X86-64 for bit widths larger than 128.

The failure mode is either a linker error ("the __muloti4 builtin isn't
available for this target") or an assertion failure ("SelectionDAG
doesn't know what builtin to call").

Until we actually add builtin support for 128-bit multiply-with-overflow
on X86, we should error-out on unsupported calls as early as possible.

Is there a reason this only fails on x86? If LLVM doesn't have generic wide-operation lowering, this probably needs to be a target whitelist rather than a blacklist.

  • Update to check against a whitelist of supported targets.

That makes sense. For the 128-bit operation, the whitelist is {x86-64, wasm64, mips64}. We don't support this operation for bit widths larger than 128 bits on any target. I'll update the patch accordingly.

Okay. Sounds good to me.

We intend to actually implement the generic lowering, I hope?

Yes, I'll make a note of that in PR34920, and am tracking the bug internally in rdar://problem/34963321.

That sounds wrong. __int128_t should be supported by all 64bit architectures, not just those three.

I didn't mean to imply generic int128_t operations aren't supported. This patch just focuses on muloti4 (signed multiplication with overflow checking).
