Missed in the original commit, use the correct callee-saved register
list for spilling, instead of the standard SVR432 list. This avoids
needlessly spilling the SPE non-volatile registers when they're not used.

I think this is very close, but I really think the reloading code needs to be fixed.

163 | These ternary operator expressions were arguably too complex already. I don't think there's any doubt that after this they're becoming nearly unparsable by a human. Can you please refactor these to use nested if's? |
Is there a good example for a test case testing register spills with no determined register class? That's the only location where I added new spill handling. The real meat of this should already be handled by the existing regression tests.
I removed the extra spill changes. Those can be done later if there actually is a problem. This didn't change the tests at all. I'm not quite sure how to write a test to demonstrate that "some but not all" registers are spilled in a given case, given that the register allocator can change at any time, so can't hard-code the registers that would get spilled, and I don't think I can even hard-code the number of registers that could get spilled.
LGTM other than the code here looks really messy - but it looks messy regardless of this patch.
I think after this lands, we should refactor this stuff to something like this:
const MCPhysReg *CSRLists[] = { CSR_64_AllRegs_VSX_SaveList, CSR_64_AllRegs_Altivec_SaveList, CSR_64_AllRegs_SaveList, CSR_Darwin64_Altivec_SaveList, CSR_Darwin64_SaveList, CSR_Darwin32_Altivec_SaveList, CSR_Darwin32_SaveList, ... }; // Compute the index into the array based on Subtarget features, calling convention, ABI, the need to save R2, and object mode (32/64 bit). return CSRLists[ComputedIdx];
and similarly for the regmasks.

174 | No need for else when the previous if just does a return. The same comment applies to all the else statements here. // Cold calling convention CSR's. if (MF->getFunction().getCallingConv() == CallingConv::Cold) { // 64-bit targets. if (TM.isPPC64()) { if (Subtarget.hasAltivec()) return SaveR2 ? ... return SaveR2 ? ... } // 32-bit targets. if (Subtarget.hasAltivec()) return CSR_SVR32_ColdCC_Altivec_SaveList; if (Subtarget.hasSPE()) return CSR_SVR32_ColdCC_SPE_SaveList; return CSR_SVR32_ColdCC_SaveList } // Standard calling convention CSR's. ... |
