[SelectionDAG] ComputeNumSignBits - support constant pool values from target
ClosedPublic

Details

Summary

As I mentioned on D61887 we don't get many hits on ComputeNumSignBits as we did on computeKnownBits.

The case we do get is interesting though - it allows us to use the 'ConditionalNegate' combine in combineLogicBlendIntoPBLENDV to remove a select.

It comes too late for SSE41 (BLENDV) cases, but SSE2 tests can hit it now. We should probably try to make use of this for SSE41+ targets as well - avoiding variable blends is usually a good idea. I'll investigate as a followup.

This looks good to me, but i won't claim to know all the details here, so would be good for someone else to confirm.

I realize this is not a new comment, but why '17'?
Does this only load 16-bit and extends to 32-bit?

Precommit formatting-only changes?

Do you want to defer to scalar case if it's splat?

return 1; // Unhandled aggregate elt type. Conservatively assuming no bits match the sign bit.

Not limited but I agree its annoying that it doesn't make the context of the example clear.

3882–3887 ↗(On Diff #202556)

Sure.

Tricky - I went for handling it here as it makes it clearer whats going on, and is probably more performant than adding calls to the splat detection code and computeKnownBits
