Add Connex vector processor back end

[alexsusu]

Summary

Connex is an established, almost 30-year old, very wide research vector processor (see, for example, http://users.dcae.pub.ro/~gstefan/2ndLevel/connex.html) with a number of lanes between 32 and 4096, easily changeable at synthesis time.
A very interesting feature is that the Connex processor has a local banked vector memory (each lane has its own local memory), which achieves 1 cycle latency with direct and indirect loads and stores - this implies that the memory bandwidth is very big.

The Connex vector processor has 16-bit signed integer Execution Units in each lane. It is emulating efficiently (via inlining the emulation subroutines in the instruction selection pass) 32-bit int and IEEE 754-2008 compliant 16-bit floating point (Clang type _Float16, C for ARM __fp16, LLVM IR half type). The emulation subroutines are in the lib/Target/Connex/Select_*_OpincaaCodeGen.h files, which are to be included in the ConnexISelDAGToDAG.cpp module, in the ConnexDAGToDAGISel::Select() method. These emulation subroutines can be easily adjusted using for example to increase performance by sacrificing accuracy of f16 - drop me an email to ask how can you do it. (They currently total almost 1 MB of C++ code.)
The Connex vector processor does not currently support the float, double, nor the 64-bit integer types.

The back end targets more exactly the Connex processor, used as an accelerator, a variant of the Connex processor, which is low-power. The working compiler is described at https://sites.google.com/site/alexsusu/myfilecabinet/OpincaaLLVM_TR_UPB.pdf .

Note that currently our back end targets only our Connex Opincaa assembler (very easy to learn and use) available at https://gitlab.dcae.pub.ro/research/ConnexRelated/opincaa/ .
The Connex Opincaa assembler allows to run arbitrary Connex vector-length, host (CPU) agnostic code.

The ISA of the Connex vector processor is available at https://gitlab.dcae.pub.ro/research/ConnexRelated/opincaa/blob/master/ConnexISA.pdf .
The Connex vector processor has also an open source C++ simulator available also at https://gitlab.dcae.pub.ro/research/ConnexRelated/opincaa/ .

The mailing list for the Connex processor and tools is: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/connex-tools .

An interesting feature is that, in order to support recovering from from the Instruction selection pass' SelectionDAG back to the original source (C) code we require adding a simple data structure in include/llvm/CodeGen/SelectionDAG.h (and helper methods in related files) that maps an SDValue to the LLVM IR Value object it was used to translate from:
   DenseMap<const Value*, SDValue> *crtNodeMapPtr

The Connex back end is 3 years old. We published 1 academic paper on it at a CGO workshop: https://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=3306166 . However, we are still adding features to the back end.

Small note: the Connex backend is rather small, it builds fast (in ~3-5 mins, single-threaded on a decent machine; in Apr 2019 the built objects have a total 71,168K, while the smallest LLVM backend, MSP430, has 63,387K and the biggest ones are X86 with 359,736K, and AMDGPU with 488,309K).

An important thing is that I think the test/MC/Connex folder should not be populated for this patch, because the Connex back end is able to generate only an assembly code that is required to be used by the special Opincaa assembler, which is not integrated in LLVM. I've seen other back ends doing a similar thing such as the NVPTX back end, which doesn't support object file generation. The Connex back end also doesn't support object file generation.
The eBPF+ConnexS processor has the same ABI as the eBPF processor it extends, except that Connex-S supports natively only 16-bit integers and it is able to access the banked vector memory only by line (so Connex-S can't perform unaligned accesses).

The Connex processor is currently implemented in FPGA, but was also implemented in silicon also:
    - an older version for HDTV: Gheorghe M. Stefan, "The CA1024: A Massively Parallel Processor for Cost-Effective HDTV", 2006 (http://users.dcae.pub.ro/~gstefan/2ndLevel/images/connex_v4.ppt)
    - M. Malita and Gheorghe M. Stefan, "Map-scan Node Accelerator for Big-data"
    - Gheorghe M. Stefan and Mihaela Malita, "Can One-Chip Parallel Computing Be Liberated From Ad Hoc Solutions? A Computation Model Based Approach and Its Implementation"

[alexsusu]

Added 2 more files. I still have to add another about 50 files.

[alexsusu]

A few corrections to ConnexInstrInfoVec.td .

[alexsusu]

More refactoring on the .td TableGen files. Added also more source files.

[alexsusu]

Added all source files for the Connex back end.
Followed coding standards from https://llvm.org/docs/CodingStandards.html .

[alexsusu]

Added myself as maintainer of the Connex backend in CODE_OWNERS.TXT.

Some initial feedback:

• This patch is pretty huge which makes it pretty hard to meaningfully review
• There seem to be effectively no tests. I'd expect test/CodeGen/Connex and test/MC/Connex to be reasonably well populated
• Plenty of code commented out or with date-based comments that don't match our style, e.g. // 2018_*
• Files have the old license header rather than the new one

[alexsusu]

Made a first round of corrections following Alex Bradbury's review.

Hi, Alex.

I addressed a few of your concerns and I'm working on the others.

An important thing is that I think test/MC/Connex should not be populated for this patch, because the Connex back end is able to generate only an assembly code that is required to be used by the special Opincaa assembler, which is not integrated in LLVM. I've seen other back ends doing a similar thing such as the NVPTX back end, which doesn't support object file generation. The Connex back end also doesn't support object file generation.

Thank you,
  Alex Susu

[alexsusu]

Added all required files for the back end (a few were missing).

[efriedma]

Just quickly reviewing the target-independent changes.

In general, commented-out code should be cleaned up.

Could you explain the need for crtNodeMapPtr a bit more? In general, IR instructions should be lowered to SelectionDAG nodes in a way that doesn't require referring back to the original Instruction afterwards.

lib/CodeGen/SelectionDAG/SelectionDAGBuilder.cpp

9092–9093

If you have operations with multiple results you need to custom-legalize, your backend should just override LowerOperationWrapper.

lib/CodeGen/SelectionDAG/SelectionDAGBuilder.h

41

Stray include?

[arsenm]

There's a lot of clutter that makes this hard to review. All of the extra debug, special ifdef blocks, and commented out code should be removed.

This should also be split into smaller patches. For example, the triple patches, then adding the basic target machine definition, and then MC parts before moving on to codegen and optimizations

include/llvm/ADT/Triple.h

56

The triple patches are usually committed as a first, separate patch

include/llvm/CodeGen/SelectionDAG.h

273–277

This probably should be dropped

1226–1231

This should be a separate patch (or you could just use the ArrayRef version)

lib/Target/Connex/ConnexAsmPrinter.cpp

53

This should be after all includes

54–59

Sort includes

61–64

You should not need this, also no global

165

isInlineAsm() (also for others)

226–227

A large number of the debug statements seem like they're just noise for committing

235

No c string functions

958

You shouldn't be looking at the .data() on a StringRef as if it were a c string like this should just use the StringRef directly.

lib/Target/Connex/ConnexAsmPrinterLoopNests.h

2–3

I don't really understand anything that's going on in this file. You shouldn't have file IO, or globals

lib/Target/Connex/ConnexConfig.h

4

These macros mostly seem like a waste of effort

lib/Target/Connex/ConnexHazardRecognizers.cpp

305

Fewer TODOs

309

No random special ifdef blocks

lib/Target/Connex/ConnexInstrInfo.h

53

No macro for this

lib/Target/Connex/ConnexSelectionDAGInfo.cpp

114

static const

176

static const

202

More junk macros

lib/Target/Connex/ConnexTargetMachine.cpp

899

This needs to be broken down into smaller functions

lib/Target/Connex/ConnexTargetTransformInfo.h

118

Noisy debug

lib/Target/Connex/RecoverFromLlvmIR.h

1–2 ↗

(On Diff #196163)

I don't know what this file is trying to accomplish, but it is a separate patch from the backend

lib/Target/Connex/Select_ADDi32_OpincaaCodeGen.h

10–19

There shouldn't be any generated code. Generated selection should come from table gen, with some manual code in *ISelDAGToDAG

lib/Target/Connex/TargetInfo/Makefile

2

I thought Makefiles were all gone?

New targets are generally considered experimental and not added to the default build list. You would generally build them by adding them to the cmake definition LLVM_EXPERIMENTAL_TARGETS_TO_BUILD.

[alexsusu]

Addressed most reviews of efriedma, arsenm, luismarques (and of asb).

[alexsusu]

Added relevant tests in test/CodeGen/Connex.

[arsenm]

This still needs a lot of work before it will be in a committable state. All of the parts touching generic code need to be reviewed and committed separately at an absolute minimum. The backend also could use some breaking up.

In particular the Value*/SDNode map doesn't in general make sense. What is it used for? It's certainly not the correct solution to whatever problem you're solving with it.

include/llvm/Analysis/ScalarEvolutionExpander.h

264–272 ↗

(On Diff #198358)

SCEV changes need to be split to separate patches

include/llvm/CodeGen/SelectionDAG.h

273–277

This still needs to be dropped

lib/CodeGen/LiveRangeCalc.cpp

25–38 ↗

(On Diff #198358)

This needs to be removed

lib/CodeGen/RegAllocGreedy.cpp

1223–1224 ↗

(On Diff #198358)

Needs to be removed

lib/CodeGen/SelectionDAG/DAGCombiner.cpp

1472–1473

Needs to be removed

lib/CodeGen/SelectionDAG/SelectionDAG.cpp

85

Ditto

lib/Target/Connex/ConnexAsmPrinter.cpp

80–87

These various places linking to other documentation should be removed. Doxygen generates the appropriate links

105–118

Remove commented out code

781–783

More macros to remove

lib/Target/Connex/Select_SUBi32_OpincaaCodeGen.h

2–7

This file needs to be dropped. There should be no committed, generated code. You should have table gen emit this, or manually write the code in ISelDAGToDAG

+
+   We require to run first this function with justOne == false and then
+            with justOne == true.
+
+   More exactly, in LoopVectorize.cpp we added, among others, the following

+       - 1 BEGIN_KERNEL INLINEASM instruction used as loop prologue
+       - 1 END_KERNEL INLINEASM instruction used as
+            loop prologue (END_KERNEL part)
+       - 1 BEGIN_KERNEL INLINEASM instruction for
+            the loop.
+   We move these 3 instructions to the front of
+       MBB when justOne == false. This ensures that eventual
+       less-likely case of having a VLOAD_H_SYM_IMM (and inline ASM associated,
+       containing the symbolic operand) manually generated by me
+       in ConnexISelDAGToDAG.cpp is not going to be first instruction, before
+       the Opincaa loop header ASM inline expression.
+     We also make sure that eventual loads from spills are put inside the loop
+       prologue.
+
+   We move 1 instruction to the front since in runOnMachineFunction() we put
+      all instructions of the predecessor (has to be only 1 predecessor) of
+      vector.body at the front of MBB, so we have to move the BEGIN_KERNEL of
+      the loop prologue.

+        Basically we expand the following pseudo-machine instruction:

+        to the following Connex machine instr:

+    - read, write
+    - iwrite
+  for each operation updating the register used by these instructions just before, which can be:
+    iread, vload, ldix, multlo/hi, ldsh, add/c, sub/c, eq/ult/lt, (i)shl, (i)shr, (i)shra, popcount, not/or/and/xor.
+
+Similarly with the wherexx Connex instruction.
+
+The point is that we should try NOT to focus on the delay slots of the producer instructions (in number of 24), but focus on these delays at the consumer side because there are only 6 consumer instructions (read/write, iwrite, wherecr/eq/lt).
+
+Not only that, but we should try to fill the delay slots with instructions in out-of-order fashion.

+
+I guess Hal recommends customizing the post-RA scheduler because after RA we have finished all(?) instruction selection steps and we handle MachineInstr, which makes life simpler for us to see if we have ST_H or ST_INDIRECT, etc.
+See the Figure with passes in \cite{Cardoso_Lopes2014}, page 134.

+\cite{Cardoso_Lopes2014}
+  "There are three distinct scheduler executions in the code generator:
+  two prior and one post register allocation. The frst works on
+  SelectionDAG nodes while the other two work on machine
+  instructions"
+
+  "The scheduler runs before and after register allocation. However, the SDNode
+  instruction representation is only available in the former while the latter uses the
+  MachineInstr class. To cope with both SDNodes and MachineInstrs, the SUnit class
+  (see the fle <llvm_source>/include/llvm/CodeGen/ScheduleDAG.h) abstracts the
+  underlying instruction representation as the unit used during instruction scheduling."
+
+See also http://llvm.org/docs/doxygen/html/classllvm_1_1ScheduleHazardRecognizer.html#details
+  <<HazardRecognizer - This determines whether or not an instruction can be issued this cycle, and whether or not a noop needs to be inserted to handle the hazard.>>

+         - in this case the register to be written to the LS memory.

+
+    In this case it spills %vreg538 to LS memory

+TODO TODO: better implement it in ConnexTargetMachine::addPreRegAlloc(), in

+
+Creating in ConnexInstrInfo::expandPostRAPseudo() bundle instructions
+  with VLOAD_H_SYM_IMM + INLINEASM.
+  This is a decent compromise although I do NOT use pseudo-instructions,
+  using this after Register Allocation (PostRA) works because:
+    - IMPORTANT: INLINEASM is considered a pseudo-instruction (NOTE that
+            VLOAD_H_SYM_IMM is NOT considered a pseudo-instruction);
+    - pre-RA scheduler does NOT break the VLOAD_H_SYM_IMM from its associated
+        INLINEASM;
+    - register allocator does NOT break either the VLOAD_H_SYM_IMM from its
+        associated INLINEASM, more exactly it doesn't insert spills or fills
+        between the two instructions as far as I can see. IMPORTANT: however I
+        am NOT sure if this is always going to hold.
+As of Feb 2017, class TargetInstrInfo
+    (see http://llvm.org/docs/doxygen/html/classllvm_1_1TargetInstrInfo.html)
+    has a few methods called on MachineInstr, but expandPostRAPseudo() seems
+    to be a very good candidate (also it has no method with MachineSDNode).
+  Anyhow, we could create and register our own pass working on MachineInstr in
+   order to bundle instructions together (or on MachineSDNode, before pre-RA
+   scheduler, although I guess it might be DIFFICULT to bundle from
+   MachineSDNode to MachineInstr, since we have to perform a simple scheduling).
