This should test for N64, preferably using MipsABIInfo::ArePtrs64bit()

1959–1963 ↗(On Diff #25038)

Similarly, these two isGP64bit() checks should be checks for 64-bit pointers via the MipsABIInfo class

1994–1999 ↗(On Diff #25038)

This comment is only correct for the 'if (UseSrcReg && (SrcReg == DstReg))' path. Could you move/update it to cover the other path?

2026 ↗(On Diff #25038)

Strangely, GAS only seems to expand this way for:

dla $2, foo($3)

and not:

dla $2, 0x0001000200030004($3)

which generates the longer code above. I think we should mention this to them.

Also, I don't get this expansion when running this instruction through the GCC driver:

dla $2, sym($8)

Instead I get:

  8c:	df820000 	ld	v0,0(gp)
			8c: R_MIPS_GOT_DISP	.text
			8c: R_MIPS_NONE	*ABS*
			8c: R_MIPS_NONE	*ABS*
  90:	0048102d 	daddu	v0,v0,a4

I think it needs to depend on -mno-abicalls.

Rebased (for Sean Bruno's convenience).

Addressed review comments.
Changed behaviour to more closely match GAS.
Refactored if-else control flow to early returns.
Added test cases for DLA with $at as an operand.
Added more test cases for unusual behaviours of (D)LA.
Added test cases for mips-expansions-bad.s.
Removed some unnecessary generation checks to fix mips-expansions-bad.s.
Removed unnecessary patch dependecies.
Rebased on top of D10568.

Right now, there still are some missing pieces:

The mips-expansions-bad.s test cases which involve (D)LA of an immediate do not currently work.
They will require further changes, mostly in expandLoadAddressImm() and expandLoadAddressReg().

There are no DLA test cases in set-nomacro.s (only for LA).

lib/Target/Mips/AsmParser/MipsAsmParser.cpp
821 ↗(On Diff #25038)

Fixed.

1959–1963 ↗(On Diff #25038)

The first one was fixed in a separate patch.
The second one is more consistent with GAS' behaviour.

1994–1999 ↗(On Diff #25038)

I had to rewrite the comments anyway, so it's been fixed.

2026 ↗(On Diff #25038)

Regarding the first sub-comment, it's true that GAS expands those differently,
but so do we, as the case without the symbol goes through a different code path than
the one highlighted here (it's expanded by loadImmediate() not loadAndAddSymbolAddress()).

Regarding the second sub-comment, the LD + GOT_DISP relocation expansion is
supposed to happen when PIC mode is enabled. I was not intending to add support
for PIC mode DLA with this patch.

As for -mno-abicalls, that seems more of a driver issue to me.
I don't think the assembler is supposed to know what abicalls means.

AFAICT gcc with -m-abicalls passes -KPIC to gas while gcc + -mno-abicalls does not.
At the moment, clang always passes -KPIC, regardless of the abicalls option, so
that might be the problem.

2027 ↗(On Diff #25038)

Fixed.

Commandeered this patch since Toma finished his placement with us last Friday.

dsanders updated this revision to Diff 29905.Jul 16 2015, 7:46 AM

Fixed several bugs as well as differences in output compared to GAS.

At this point, li/la/dli/dla produce the same output as GAS except for:

  • N32 emits ELF64. This is a known bug.
  • Relocs are based on local symbols rather than .text. Another known bug.
  • la does not promote to dla on N64 with a warning. It errors instead. This is due to GPR32 vs GPR64 mismatches.

LGTM with a small test case as described in the comments below.

lib/Target/Mips/AsmParser/MipsAsmParser.cpp
1845 ↗(On Diff #29905)

Nit: Parenthesize the expression.

1937 ↗(On Diff #29905)

Nit: emitRI expects an int16_t which leads to an "overflow in implicit constant conversion" warning due to the hexadecimal literal.

2051–2055 ↗(On Diff #29905)

Could you add a test for this case? Maybe in macro-la-bad.s?

Also, the following test case currently fails for N32:

dla $5, 0x000000000($6)
test/MC/Mips/macro-la.s
10 ↗(On Diff #29905)

Nit: Delete "is".

This needs to be updated due to code rot. It applies cleanly to head, however it does not compile tue to changes causing the following compile failures:

It didn't apply cleanly for me and when I resolve the patch application issues it works for me. Assuming Vasileios agrees with the question below, I'll commit.

lib/Target/Mips/AsmParser/MipsAsmParser.cpp
2051–2055 ↗(On Diff #29905)

dla fails for N32 because dla is intended for 64-bit pointers. I believe N32 should use la. Do you agree?

Yes, that makes sense. You can go ahead and commit this.

This revision was automatically updated to reflect the committed changes.

The nits are fixed in the commit. I was going to refresh the patch beforehand but it seems arcanist no longer allows that for svn.
