@mehdi_amini I understand what you explain above but here I think RegisterUsageInfo is not tastable alone because it just holds RegMasks, RegisterInfoCollector is a trigger to IP regalloc and both of them can be tested together. Also to test X86RegUsageInfoPropagate it requires both of the above mentioned passes. But we can separate patches for RegisterUsageInfo + InfoCollector and X86RegUsageInfoPropagate ( condition that first patch is required to test second one) .
Is there any better plan in your mind?
