[AMDGPU] Spill CSR VGPR which is reserved for SGPR spills
ClosedPublic

Summary

A CSR VGPR being reserved for SGPR spills could be clobbered if there were no
free lower VGPR's available. Create a stack object so that it will be spilled
in the prologue.

Update the test to include a stack object so that a VGPR will be pre-reserved.

I think checking for isEntryFunction is redundant with checking for CSRegs. Why does this need to worry about calls? This will miss the tail call case.

Can you also comment this?

Can you also add a test that only has a tail call?

The logic is the same for other CSRegs being reserved for SGPR spills.

I'm not sure in what situation this might miss the tail call case? If there is a tail call and we don't clobber any SGPRs there will be no reserved VGPR and no unnecessary spill.

Create the stack object in lowerShiftReservedVGPR. Also handle this reserved VGPR not being live-in to all BB. Add more tests. Cleanup some of the existing logic.

LGTM. Please wait for @arsenm 's review.

LGTM with nit. I really need to get back to the register allocation split patches
