<h3 class="section">17.14 Canonicalization of Instructions</h3>
|
|
<a name="index-canonicalization-of-instructions"></a>
|
|
<a name="index-insn-canonicalization"></a>
|
|
|
|
<p>There are often cases where multiple RTL expressions could represent an
|
|
operation performed by a single machine instruction. This situation is
|
|
most commonly encountered with logical, branch, and multiply-accumulate
|
|
instructions. In such cases, the compiler attempts to convert these
|
|
multiple RTL expressions into a single canonical form to reduce the
|
|
number of insn patterns required.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>In addition to algebraic simplifications, following canonicalizations
|
|
are performed:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> For commutative and comparison operators, a constant is always made the
|
|
second operand. If a machine only supports a constant as the second
|
|
operand, only patterns that match a constant in the second operand need
|
|
be supplied.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> For associative operators, a sequence of operators will always chain
|
|
to the left; for instance, only the left operand of an integer <code>plus</code>
|
|
can itself be a <code>plus</code>. <code>and</code>, <code>ior</code>, <code>xor</code>,
|
|
<code>plus</code>, <code>mult</code>, <code>smin</code>, <code>smax</code>, <code>umin</code>, and
|
|
<code>umax</code> are associative when applied to integers, and sometimes to
|
|
floating-point.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> <a name="index-neg_002c-canonicalization-of"></a>
|
|
<a name="index-not_002c-canonicalization-of"></a>
|
|
<a name="index-mult_002c-canonicalization-of"></a>
|
|
<a name="index-plus_002c-canonicalization-of"></a>
|
|
<a name="index-minus_002c-canonicalization-of"></a>
|
|
For these operators, if only one operand is a <code>neg</code>, <code>not</code>,
|
|
<code>mult</code>, <code>plus</code>, or <code>minus</code> expression, it will be the
|
|
first operand.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> In combinations of <code>neg</code>, <code>mult</code>, <code>plus</code>, and
|
|
<code>minus</code>, the <code>neg</code> operations (if any) will be moved inside
|
|
the operations as far as possible. For instance,
|
|
<code>(neg (mult A B))</code> is canonicalized as <code>(mult (neg A) B)</code>, but
|
|
<code>(plus (mult (neg B) C) A)</code> is canonicalized as
|
|
<code>(minus A (mult B C))</code>.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> <a name="index-compare_002c-canonicalization-of"></a>
|
|
For the <code>compare</code> operator, a constant is always the second operand
|
|
if the first argument is a condition code register or <code>(cc0)</code>.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> For instructions that inherently set a condition code register, the
|
|
<code>compare</code> operator is always written as the first RTL expression of
|
|
the <code>parallel</code> instruction pattern. For example,
|
|
|
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
|
<pre class="smallexample">(define_insn ""
|
|
[(set (reg:CCZ FLAGS_REG)
|
|
(compare:CCZ
|
|
(plus:SI
|
|
(match_operand:SI 1 "register_operand" "%r")
|
|
(match_operand:SI 2 "register_operand" "r"))
|
|
(const_int 0)))
|
|
(set (match_operand:SI 0 "register_operand" "=r")
|
|
(plus:SI (match_dup 1) (match_dup 2)))]
|
|
""
|
|
"addl %0, %1, %2")
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
</li><li> An operand of <code>neg</code>, <code>not</code>, <code>mult</code>, <code>plus</code>, or
|
|
<code>minus</code> is made the first operand under the same conditions as
|
|
above.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> <code>(ltu (plus <var>a</var> <var>b</var>) <var>b</var>)</code> is converted to
|
|
<code>(ltu (plus <var>a</var> <var>b</var>) <var>a</var>)</code>. Likewise with <code>geu</code> instead
|
|
of <code>ltu</code>.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> <code>(minus <var>x</var> (const_int <var>n</var>))</code> is converted to
|
|
<code>(plus <var>x</var> (const_int <var>-n</var>))</code>.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> Within address computations (i.e., inside <code>mem</code>), a left shift is
|
|
converted into the appropriate multiplication by a power of two.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> <a name="index-ior_002c-canonicalization-of"></a>
|
|
<a name="index-and_002c-canonicalization-of"></a>
|
|
<a name="index-De-Morgan_0027s-law"></a>
|
|
De Morgan’s Law is used to move bitwise negation inside a bitwise
|
|
logical-and or logical-or operation. If this results in only one
|
|
operand being a <code>not</code> expression, it will be the first one.
|
|
|
|
<p>A machine that has an instruction that performs a bitwise logical-and of one
|
|
operand with the bitwise negation of the other should specify the pattern
|
|
for that instruction as
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
|
<pre class="smallexample">(define_insn ""
|
|
[(set (match_operand:<var>m</var> 0 …)
|
|
(and:<var>m</var> (not:<var>m</var> (match_operand:<var>m</var> 1 …))
|
|
(match_operand:<var>m</var> 2 …)))]
|
|
"…"
|
|
"…")
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>Similarly, a pattern for a “NAND” instruction should be written
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
|
<pre class="smallexample">(define_insn ""
|
|
[(set (match_operand:<var>m</var> 0 …)
|
|
(ior:<var>m</var> (not:<var>m</var> (match_operand:<var>m</var> 1 …))
|
|
(not:<var>m</var> (match_operand:<var>m</var> 2 …))))]
|
|
"…"
|
|
"…")
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>In both cases, it is not necessary to include patterns for the many
|
|
logically equivalent RTL expressions.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li><li> <a name="index-xor_002c-canonicalization-of"></a>
|
|
The only possible RTL expressions involving both bitwise exclusive-or
|
|
and bitwise negation are <code>(xor:<var>m</var> <var>x</var> <var>y</var>)</code>
|
|
and <code>(not:<var>m</var> (xor:<var>m</var> <var>x</var> <var>y</var>))</code>.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> The sum of three items, one of which is a constant, will only appear in
|
|
the form
|
|
|
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
|
<pre class="smallexample">(plus:<var>m</var> (plus:<var>m</var> <var>x</var> <var>y</var>) <var>constant</var>)
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
</li><li> <a name="index-zero_005fextract_002c-canonicalization-of"></a>
|
|
<a name="index-sign_005fextract_002c-canonicalization-of"></a>
|
|
Equality comparisons of a group of bits (usually a single bit) with zero
|
|
will be written using <code>zero_extract</code> rather than the equivalent
|
|
<code>and</code> or <code>sign_extract</code> operations.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> <a name="index-mult_002c-canonicalization-of-1"></a>
|
|
<code>(sign_extend:<var>m1</var> (mult:<var>m2</var> (sign_extend:<var>m2</var> <var>x</var>)
|
|
(sign_extend:<var>m2</var> <var>y</var>)))</code> is converted to <code>(mult:<var>m1</var>
|
|
(sign_extend:<var>m1</var> <var>x</var>) (sign_extend:<var>m1</var> <var>y</var>))</code>, and likewise
|
|
for <code>zero_extend</code>.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> <code>(sign_extend:<var>m1</var> (mult:<var>m2</var> (ashiftrt:<var>m2</var>
|
|
<var>x</var> <var>s</var>) (sign_extend:<var>m2</var> <var>y</var>)))</code> is converted
|
|
to <code>(mult:<var>m1</var> (sign_extend:<var>m1</var> (ashiftrt:<var>m2</var>
|
|
<var>x</var> <var>s</var>)) (sign_extend:<var>m1</var> <var>y</var>))</code>, and likewise for
|
|
patterns using <code>zero_extend</code> and <code>lshiftrt</code>. If the second
|
|
operand of <code>mult</code> is also a shift, then that is extended also.
|
|
This transformation is only applied when it can be proven that the
|
|
original operation had sufficient precision to prevent overflow.
|
|
|
