For example, IDIV8r reads from GPR and // writes to AX. We just need to ensure that the Var is assigned a // register which is different from AX: // idiv bx // idiv bx // idiv bx // idiv bx // The above snippet will be able to fully saturate the ports, while the same // with ax would issue one uop every `latency(IDIV8r)` cycles. // // Some instructions make this harder because they both read and write from // the same register: // inc rax // inc rax // inc rax // inc rax // This has a data dependency from each instruction to the next, limit the // number of instructions that can be issued in parallel. // It turns out that this is not a big issue on recent Intel CPUs because they // have heuristics to balance port pressure. In the snippet above, subsequent // instructions will end up evenly distributed on {P0,P1,P5,P6}, but some CPUs // might end up executing them all on P0 (just because they can), or try // avoiding P5 because it's usually under high pressure from vector // instructions. // This issue is even more important for high-latency instructions because // they increase the idle time of the CPU, e.g. : // imul rax, rbx // imul rax, rbx // imul rax, rbx // imul rax, rbx // // To avoid that, we do the renaming statically by generating as many // independent exclusive assignments as possible (until all possible registers // are exhausted) e.g.: // imul rax, rbx // imul rcx, rbx // imul rdx, rbx // imul r8, rbx // // Some instruction even make the above static renaming impossible because // they implicitly read and write from the same operand, e.g. ADC16rr reads // and writes from EFLAGS. // In that case we just use a greedy register assignment and hope for the // best. namespace llvm { namespace exegesis { static SmallVector getVariablesWithTiedOperands(const Instruction &Instr) { SmallVector Result; for (const auto &Var : Instr.Variables) if (Var.hasTiedOperands()) Result.push_back(&Var); return Result; } ParallelSnippetGenerator::~ParallelSnippetGenerator() = default; void ParallelSnippetGenerator::instantiateMemoryOperands( const unsigned ScratchSpacePointerInReg, std::vector &Instructions) const { if (ScratchSpacePointerInReg == 0) return; // no memory operands. const auto &ET = State.getExegesisTarget(); const unsigned MemStep = ET.getMaxMemoryAccessSize(); const size_t OriginalInstructionsSize = Instructions.size(); size_t I = 0; for (InstructionTemplate &IT : Instructions) { ET.fillMemoryOperands(IT, ScratchSpacePointerInReg, I * MemStep); ++I; } while (Instructions.size() < kMinNumDifferentAddresses) { InstructionTemplate IT = Instructions[I % OriginalInstructionsSize]; ET.fillMemoryOperands(IT, ScratchSpacePointerInReg, I * MemStep); ++I; Instructions.push_back(std::move(IT)); } assert(I * MemStep < BenchmarkRunner::ScratchSpace::kSize && "not enough scratch space"); } static std::vector generateSnippetUsingStaticRenaming( const LLVMState &State, const InstructionTemplate &IT, const ArrayRef TiedVariables, const BitVector &ForbiddenRegisters) { std::vector Instructions; // Assign registers to variables in a round-robin manner.
