Hi, Quite lot of time is used when IVOPT computes cost for <use, cand> pairs. As a matter of fact, some pairs are very similar to each other, and we can abstract and compute cost only once for these pairs. This is a patch doing so, the idea is skipping cost computation for sub-uses in each group, of course it may result in different assembly code for some complicated cases because it estimates cost rather than doing real computation. I did double check one of such case that the change in generated assembly is not degeneration. For an IVOPT heavy program (spec2k/173), this patch reduces IVOPT's compilation time by 7~8%, as well as the memory consumption on my developing machine.
Bootstrap & test on x86_64. For spec2k6 data on x86_64. Maybe because I ran spec2k6 compiled with patched GCC in unclean environment, some cases are regressed by small amount (< %1). I manually compared assembly code for several cases, including ones with the largest regression (still within <1%). I could confirm that generated assembly code is exact the same as unpatched GCC, except for function emit_library_call_value_1 in 403.gcc/calls.c. In this case, difference of IVOPT dumps is as below: $ diff -y trunk/calls.c.154t.ivopts patch/calls.c.154t.ivopts <bb 44>: <bb 44>: # val_21 = PHI <val_175(168), val_650(43)> # val_21 = PHI <val_175(168), val_650(43)> _811 = (void *) ivtmp.322_829; _811 = (void *) ivtmp.322_829; MEM[base: _811, offset: -48B] = val_21; | MEM[base: _811, offset: -32B] = val_21; _810 = (void *) ivtmp.322_829; _810 = (void *) ivtmp.322_829; MEM[base: _810, offset: -40B] = mode_163; | MEM[base: _810, offset: -24B] = mode_163; _182 = function_arg (&args_so_far, mode_163, 0B, 1); _182 = function_arg (&args_so_far, mode_163, 0B, 1); _809 = (void *) ivtmp.322_829; _809 = (void *) ivtmp.322_829; MEM[base: _809, offset: -32B] = _182; | MEM[base: _809, offset: -16B] = _182; _807 = (void *) ivtmp.322_829; _807 = (void *) ivtmp.322_829; MEM[base: _807, offset: -24B] = 0; | MEM[base: _807, offset: -8B] = 0; _185 = (struct args_size *) ivtmp.322_829; | _801 = ivtmp.322_829 + 16; _801 = ivtmp.322_829 + 18446744073709551600; < _800 = (struct args_size *) _801; _800 = (struct args_size *) _801; _186 = _800; | _185 = _800; > _186 = (struct args_size *) ivtmp.322_829; _187 = _182 != 0B; _187 = _182 != 0B; _188 = (int) _187; _188 = (int) _187; locate_and_pad_parm (mode_163, 0B, _188, 0B, &args_size, _1 locate_and_pad_parm (mode_163, 0B, _188, 0B, &args_size, _1 _802 = (void *) ivtmp.322_829; _802 = (void *) ivtmp.322_829; _190 = MEM[base: _802, offset: 8B]; | _190 = MEM[base: _802, offset: 24B]; if (_190 != 0B) if (_190 != 0B) goto <bb 45>; goto <bb 45>; else else goto <bb 46>; goto <bb 46>; <bb 45>: <bb 45>: fancy_abort ("calls.c", 3724, &__FUNCTION__); fancy_abort ("calls.c", 3724, &__FUNCTION__); It's only an offset difference in IV. And below is difference of generated assembly: $ diff -y trunk/calls.S patch/calls.S .L489: .L489: leaq -80(%rbp), %rdi leaq -80(%rbp), %rdi xorl %edx, %edx xorl %edx, %edx movl $1, %ecx movl $1, %ecx movl %r13d, %esi movl %r13d, %esi movq %rax, -48(%r15) < movl %r13d, -40(%r15) < call function_arg < movl $0, -24(%r15) < movq %rax, -32(%r15) movq %rax, -32(%r15) > movl %r13d, -24(%r15) > call function_arg xorl %edx, %edx xorl %edx, %edx pushq %r12 | movq %rax, -16(%r15) testq %rax, %rax testq %rax, %rax pushq %r15 | leaq 16(%r15), %rax <--I1 leaq -16(%r15), %r9 | movl $0, -8(%r15) leaq -112(%rbp), %r8 leaq -112(%rbp), %r8 > pushq %r12 setne %dl setne %dl movl %r13d, %edi | movq %r15, %r9 <--I2 > pushq %rax <--I3 xorl %ecx, %ecx xorl %ecx, %ecx xorl %esi, %esi xorl %esi, %esi > movl %r13d, %edi call locate_and_pad_parm call locate_and_pad_parm cmpq $0, 8(%r15) | cmpq $0, 24(%r15) popq %rax popq %rax popq %rdx popq %rdx jne .L602 jne .L602 There is one additional move instruction (I2) after patching, but I believe it's a choice of RA. If we switch %rax/%r9 in instructions I1/I2 as below: ... leaq 16(%r15), %r9 ... movq %r15, %rax pushq %r15 Then I2 becomes redundant and can be removed. I will collect performance data on AArch64 to make sure there is no breakage either. So is it OK? Thanks, bin 2016-03-23 Bin Cheng <bin.ch...@arm.com> * tree-ssa-loop-ivopts.c (struct comp_cost): New scrach field. (no_cost, infinite_cost): Initialize the new field. (get_computation_cost_at): Record setup cost. (determine_use_iv_cost_address): Skip cost computation for sub uses if we can estimate it without losing accuracy.
