Now that we properly track accumulator dependencies, the scheduler is able to schedule instructions between the mach and mov in the common the integer multiplication pattern:
mul acc0, x, y mach null, x, y mov dest, acc0 Since a null destination implies no dependency on the destination, we can also safely schedule instructions (that don't write the accumulator) between the mul and mach. GAINED: 103 LOST: 43 Causes one program to spill (643 -> 1076 instructions). I committed this patch last year (commit 42a26cb5) but reverted it (commit 0d3f83f4) after inexplicable artifacts in Kerbal Space Program (bug 78648). Tapani reapplied this patch and could not reproduce the bug with current Mesa.
