I fixed some of the clear issues you mentioned, I think I was messing with the code and when I sent the email it was in a state that didn't quite make sense for the reasons you mentioned. I think you're approach of using physical register operands would work, if I can implement a multiple destination DMC1 instruction, or get the superRegister that I created which spans my calculated argument registers. <br>
<br>I don't see any examples of multiple destination instructions, and I don't know how to implement them in the DAG, so the second option seems pretty viable. If I have two registers (like a0 and a1), how do I get the register that spans them?<br>

I've been looking at how to do this, but I haven't been able to figure it out. Since the Mips target code is still really close to mine, I'll use it's code to explain relavent details. Any help would be highly appreciated.<br>
<br>The idea I tried to implement to accomplish this is to create a 64 bit register class that is set up to span two 32 bit registers in the same way as the 64 bit floats span two 32 bit floating point registers in mips. Creating the register class is easy enough to implement in the RegisterInfo.td file. <br>
<br>The next thing I wanted to do is create a Pseudo-Element similar to the ExtractElementF64 in mips. I added the following Code to InstrFPU.td (and added the CopyF64 ISD to another file):<br><br> def SDT_MipsCopyF64 : SDTypeProfile<1, 1, [SDTCisVT<0, i64>,<br>
SDTCisVT<1, f64>]>;<br><br> def MipsCopyF64 : SDNode<"MIPSISD::CopyF64",<br> SDT_MIPSCopyF64>;<br><br>I also changed CPU64Regs to CPU64PRegs ( My 64 bit paired register class) in the DMFC1 rule for testing.<br>
<br>Next, I added the code in ExpandPseudo to use the following pseudo instruction expansion:<br><br> void MipsExpandPseudo::ExpandCopyF64(MachineBasicBlock& MBB,<br> MachineBasicBlock::iterator I) {<br>
unsigned DstReg = I->getOperand(0).getReg();<br> unsigned SrcReg = I->getOperand(1).getReg();<br> const MCInstrDesc& Dmfc1Tdd = TII->get(MIPS::DMFC1);<br><br> DebugLoc dl = I->getDebugLoc();<br>
const uint16_t* SubReg = TM.getRegisterInfo()->getSubRegisters(SrcReg);<br><br> BuildMI(MBB, I, dl, Dmfc1Tdd, DstReg).addReg(*SubReg);<br> }<br><br></blockquote></div><div><br>If I understand correctly what you are trying to do, DMFC1 is supposed to read a f64 register and copy it to a pair of i32 registers. This code doesn't seem to be doing that. Why do you need a sub-register of SrcReg, if it is a f64 register? <br>

Under the CCValAssign::Full case in the LowerCall function, here is the old code:<br>

Is it possible to just emit a DMFC1 instruction with physical register operands?<br>
Something like this:<br>
<br>
(A0, A1) = DMFC1 vreg0<br>
JALR T9, A0, A1<br>
<br><br>
I think it's easier than trying to force or guide register allocator to assign successive even-odd i32 registers to DMFC1's destination registers.<br>
