Currently, @llvm.smul.with.overflow.i8 expands to 9 instructions, where
3 are really needed.
This adds X86ISD::UMUL8/SMUL8 SD nodes, and custom lowers them to
MUL8/IMUL8 + SETO.
i8 is a special case because there is no two/three operand variants of
(I)MUL8, so the first operand and return value need to go in AL/AX.
Also, we can't write patterns for these instructions: TableGen refuses
patterns where output operands don't match SDNode results. In this case,
instructions where the output operand is an implicitly defined register.
A related special case (and FIXME) exists for MUL8 (X86InstrArith.td):
// FIXME: Used for 8-bit mul, ignore result upper 8 bits. // This probably ought to be moved to a def : Pat<> if the // syntax can be accepted. [(set AL, (mul AL, GR8:$src)), (implicit EFLAGS)]
Ideally, these go away with UMUL8, but we still need to improve TableGen
support of implicit operands in patterns.
Before this change:
movsbl %sil, %eax movsbl %dil, %ecx imull %eax, %ecx movb %cl, %al sarb $7, %al movzbl %al, %eax movzbl %ch, %esi cmpl %eax, %esi setne %al
After:
movb %dil, %al imulb %sil seto %al
There are already tests for this in xaluo.ll, but they are disabled for SelectionDAG.
