NFC: Refactor library-specific mappings of scalar maths functions to their vector counterparts
ClosedPublic

Details

Summary

This patch factors out mappings of scalar maths functions to their vector counterparts from TargetLibraryInfo.cpp to a separate VecFuncs.def file. Such mappings are currently available for Accelerate framework, and SVML library.

This patch is a precursor to Initial support for vectorization using MASS (IBM MASS vector library).

Why we want to check TLI_DEFINE_VECDESCS to define TLI_DEFINE_VECFUNC?
Can't we just check #ifndef TLI_DEFINE_VECFUNC here?

174

This is not always defined, should we call #undef when we are sure they are defined?

The plan is to define TLI_DEFINE_VECFUNC in a different way when a different identifier (eg: TLI_DEFINE_ARR) is defined.

https://reviews.llvm.org/D59881 shows the intention behind this structure.

If you prefer for me to restructure this ifdef only to suit this patch, I will go ahead and change it.

The #undef is ignored if the specified identifier is not currently defined as a macro name. So, it should be alright to leave the #undef as it is.

OK, I think you meant https://reviews.llvm.org/D59883, where you want to extract the function name only.

Why not check #ifdef TLI_DEFINE_VECFUNC here, then we can add something like

#ifdef TLI_DEFINE_MASSV_VECFUNCS_NAMES  
#define TLI_DEFINE_MASSV_VECFUNCS
#define TLI_DEFINE_VECFUNC(SCAL, VEC, VF) VEC,
#endif

before this to override the default,
then use #define TLI_DEFINE_MASSV_VECFUNCS_NAMES in PPCLowerMASSVEntries.cpp ?

Then we will only need to define one macro before the #include in all places.

174

OK. Some old compiler (or pre-processor) might error due to this, but consider this is now in C standard now. It is OK to leave it as it is.

This updated patch uses a single macro to define the mapping from scalar maths functions to their vector counterparts ( as suggested in the earlier review of the original patch).

LGTM. Thanks for pulling out this change into a separate patch. I'll commit it for you on Monday. This way others have an extra opportunity to add any comments or concerns.
