[CodeGen][X86] Expand vector USUBSAT to UMAX+SUB
ClosedPublic

Authored by nikic on Jan 12 2019, 4:12 AM.

Details

Summary

Related to https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40123.

Rather than scalarizing, expand a vector USUBSAT into UMAX+SUB, which produces much better code for X86. I've updated the cost tables on the assumption that pmaxud has a cost of 1, not sure if that's correct. Agner lists it as latency 1, and recip throughput 0.5 or 1 depending on uarch.

Add ISD::USUBSAT et al here as well?

5306–5307

Really pedantic, but this function name is massive - why not just TargetLowering::expandAddSubSat ?

LowerADDSAT_SUBSAT supports AVX1 splitting, so why not:

setOperationAction(ISD::USUBSAT, MVT::v8i32, HasInt256 ? Legal : Custom);

Also, v4i64 should be ok as well.

It's already present a bit lower (L413).

This is presumably better than scalarizing, but I was wondering if a more explicit expansion would work better?

As another variant, this is what happens if I just fall through to the USUBO+SELECT expansion: https://gist.github.com/nikic/d989121f7f9898437a1255548c148904

I've added this to get the splitting, but I don't think v8i32 would be legal, as we need it to expand. Maybe hasInt256 ? Expand : Custom would make it more obvious what the intention here is?

Better for the existing x86 lowering code to handle it IMO - that's what we do for nearly all 256-bit integer code on AVX1 targets.

That's what this is intended to do. v8i32 is custom so lowering splits it into two v4i32s, which then get expanded.

If I change this to HasInt256 ? Legal : Custom, then I get:

LLVM ERROR: Cannot select: t5: v8i32 = usubsat t2, t4

Or am I misunderstanding what you have in mind here?

If you look at LowerABS just below LowerADDSAT_SUBSAT you'll see the approach that I took.

Rename excessively long method name. Change handling of AVX splitting. Move AVX512 costs to right category (pmaxuq is in AVX512F, so these shouldn't be in the BW cateogory).

Agreed, I've renamed the method.

I've changed this to always Custom and changed the LowerADDSAT_SUBSAT implementation to look more like LowerABS. Is this right?

Thanks - if you can, please pull this out and commit this as a NFC straightaway.

Allowing legalorcustom looks OK to me - we can tweak per-target codegen in future commits if its useful.

Also, should we try to do this on scalars as well before defaulting to add/sub overflow? For instance AMDGPU i32 for instance should benefit.

Sorry, ignore that!

Use LegalOrCustom. Use UMAX+SUB pattern for scalar as well. Remove no longer necessary X86 specific changes.

Okay, I did both changes. I agree that preferring this expansion makes sense even for scalar.

I've also dropped the changes in X86ISelLowering. Now that custom is allowed here, they are no longer necessary. We'll just expand to a wide UMAX here that will get split (rather than the USUBSAT getting split and then each half expanded to UMAX).

X86 vXi64 costs?

nikic marked an inline comment as done.Jan 14 2019, 5:59 AM

X86 vXi64 costs?

I've added vXi64 costs only for AVX512, as pmaxuq wasn't available previously. Should I also add costs based on the broadcast+2*xor+cmpgt+blend+sub sequence we get if there is no native umax?

Actually, thinking about this more - we'd be better off doing the non-legal umax cases in the fallback generic cost code that I mentioned in PR40123. I think that can wait for a followup patch.

LGTM.

Gah, apparently I didn't run SLPVectorizer tests, which of course also change. Getting a WARNING: Found conflicting asm under the same prefix: 'AVX2' warning when regenerating those, so I've reverted for now and will look again tomorrow.

I've updated those SLP tests to fix the conflict, please rebase and regenerate+check the SLP tests again

Rebase and update SLPVectorizer tests.
