-Introduction
-============
-
-The LLVM target-independent code generator is a framework that provides a suite
-of reusable components for translating the LLVM internal representation to the
-machine code for a specified target---either in assembly form (suitable for a
-static compiler) or in binary machine code format (usable for a JIT
-compiler). The LLVM target-independent code generator consists of six main
-components:
-
-1. `Abstract target description`_ interfaces which capture important properties
- about various aspects of the machine, independently of how they will be used.
- These interfaces are defined in ``include/llvm/Target/``.
-
-2. Classes used to represent the `code being generated`_ for a target. These
- classes are intended to be abstract enough to represent the machine code for
- *any* target machine. These classes are defined in
- ``include/llvm/CodeGen/``. At this level, concepts like "constant pool
- entries" and "jump tables" are explicitly exposed.
-
-3. Classes and algorithms used to represent code at the object file level, the
- `MC Layer`_. These classes represent assembly level constructs like labels,
- sections, and instructions. At this level, concepts like "constant pool
- entries" and "jump tables" don't exist.
-
-4. `Target-independent algorithms`_ used to implement various phases of native
- code generation (register allocation, scheduling, stack frame representation,
- etc). This code lives in ``lib/CodeGen/``.
-
-5. `Implementations of the abstract target description interfaces`_ for
- particular targets. These machine descriptions make use of the components
- provided by LLVM, and can optionally provide custom target-specific passes,
- to build complete code generators for a specific target. Target descriptions
- live in ``lib/Target/``.
-
-6. The target-independent JIT components. The LLVM JIT is completely target
- independent (it uses the ``TargetJITInfo`` structure to interface for
- target-specific issues. The code for the target-independent JIT lives in
- ``lib/ExecutionEngine/JIT``.
-
-Depending on which part of the code generator you are interested in working on,
-different pieces of this will be useful to you. In any case, you should be
-familiar with the `target description`_ and `machine code representation`_
-classes. If you want to add a backend for a new target, you will need to
-`implement the target description`_ classes for your new target and understand
-the :doc:`LLVM code representation <LangRef>`. If you are interested in
-implementing a new `code generation algorithm`_, it should only depend on the
-target-description and machine code representation classes, ensuring that it is
-portable.
-
-Required components in the code generator
------------------------------------------
-
-The two pieces of the LLVM code generator are the high-level interface to the
-code generator and the set of reusable components that can be used to build
-target-specific backends. The two most important interfaces (:raw-html:`<tt>`
-`TargetMachine`_ :raw-html:`</tt>` and :raw-html:`<tt>` `DataLayout`_
-:raw-html:`</tt>`) are the only ones that are required to be defined for a
-backend to fit into the LLVM system, but the others must be defined if the
-reusable code generator components are going to be used.
-
-This design has two important implications. The first is that LLVM can support
-completely non-traditional code generation targets. For example, the C backend
-does not require register allocation, instruction selection, or any of the other
-standard components provided by the system. As such, it only implements these
-two interfaces, and does its own thing. Note that C backend was removed from the
-trunk since LLVM 3.1 release. Another example of a code generator like this is a
-(purely hypothetical) backend that converts LLVM to the GCC RTL form and uses
-GCC to emit machine code for a target.
-
-This design also implies that it is possible to design and implement radically
-different code generators in the LLVM system that do not make use of any of the
-built-in components. Doing so is not recommended at all, but could be required
-for radically different targets that do not fit into the LLVM machine
-description model: FPGAs for example.
-
-.. _high-level design of the code generator:
-
-The high-level design of the code generator
--------------------------------------------
-
-The LLVM target-independent code generator is designed to support efficient and
-quality code generation for standard register-based microprocessors. Code
-generation in this model is divided into the following stages:
-
-1. `Instruction Selection`_ --- This phase determines an efficient way to
- express the input LLVM code in the target instruction set. This stage
- produces the initial code for the program in the target instruction set, then
- makes use of virtual registers in SSA form and physical registers that
- represent any required register assignments due to target constraints or
- calling conventions. This step turns the LLVM code into a DAG of target
- instructions.
-
-2. `Scheduling and Formation`_ --- This phase takes the DAG of target
- instructions produced by the instruction selection phase, determines an
- ordering of the instructions, then emits the instructions as :raw-html:`<tt>`
- `MachineInstr`_\s :raw-html:`</tt>` with that ordering. Note that we
- describe this in the `instruction selection section`_ because it operates on
- a `SelectionDAG`_.
-
-3. `SSA-based Machine Code Optimizations`_ --- This optional stage consists of a
- series of machine-code optimizations that operate on the SSA-form produced by
- the instruction selector. Optimizations like modulo-scheduling or peephole
- optimization work here.
-
-4. `Register Allocation`_ --- The target code is transformed from an infinite
- virtual register file in SSA form to the concrete register file used by the
- target. This phase introduces spill code and eliminates all virtual register
- references from the program.
-
-5. `Prolog/Epilog Code Insertion`_ --- Once the machine code has been generated
- for the function and the amount of stack space required is known (used for
- LLVM alloca's and spill slots), the prolog and epilog code for the function
- can be inserted and "abstract stack location references" can be eliminated.
- This stage is responsible for implementing optimizations like frame-pointer
- elimination and stack packing.
-
-6. `Late Machine Code Optimizations`_ --- Optimizations that operate on "final"
- machine code can go here, such as spill code scheduling and peephole
- optimizations.
-
-7. `Code Emission`_ --- The final stage actually puts out the code for the
- current function, either in the target assembler format or in machine
- code.
-
-The code generator is based on the assumption that the instruction selector will
-use an optimal pattern matching selector to create high-quality sequences of
-native instructions. Alternative code generator designs based on pattern
-expansion and aggressive iterative peephole optimization are much slower. This
-design permits efficient compilation (important for JIT environments) and
-aggressive optimization (used when generating code offline) by allowing
-components of varying levels of sophistication to be used for any step of
-compilation.
-
-In addition to these stages, target implementations can insert arbitrary
-target-specific passes into the flow. For example, the X86 target uses a
-special pass to handle the 80x87 floating point stack architecture. Other
-targets with unusual requirements can be supported with custom passes as needed.
-
-Using TableGen for target description
--------------------------------------
-
-The target description classes require a detailed description of the target
-architecture. These target descriptions often have a large amount of common
-information (e.g., an ``add`` instruction is almost identical to a ``sub``
-instruction). In order to allow the maximum amount of commonality to be
-factored out, the LLVM code generator uses the
-:doc:`TableGen/index` tool to describe big chunks of the
-target machine, which allows the use of domain-specific and target-specific
-abstractions to reduce the amount of repetition.
-
-As LLVM continues to be developed and refined, we plan to move more and more of
-the target description to the ``.td`` form. Doing so gives us a number of
-advantages. The most important is that it makes it easier to port LLVM because
-it reduces the amount of C++ code that has to be written, and the surface area
-of the code generator that needs to be understood before someone can get
-something working. Second, it makes it easier to change things. In particular,
-if tables and other things are all emitted by ``tblgen``, we only need a change
-in one place (``tblgen``) to update all of the targets to a new interface.
-
-.. _Abstract target description:
-.. _target description:
-
-Target description classes
-==========================
-
-The LLVM target description classes (located in the ``include/llvm/Target``
-directory) provide an abstract description of the target machine independent of
-any particular client. These classes are designed to capture the *abstract*
-properties of the target (such as the instructions and registers it has), and do
-not incorporate any particular pieces of code generation algorithms.
-
-All of the target description classes (except the :raw-html:`<tt>` `DataLayout`_
-:raw-html:`</tt>` class) are designed to be subclassed by the concrete target
-implementation, and have virtual methods implemented. To get to these
-implementations, the :raw-html:`<tt>` `TargetMachine`_ :raw-html:`</tt>` class
-provides accessors that should be implemented by the target.
-
-.. _TargetMachine:
-
-The ``TargetMachine`` class
----------------------------
-
-The ``TargetMachine`` class provides virtual methods that are used to access the
-target-specific implementations of the various target description classes via
-the ``get*Info`` methods (``getInstrInfo``, ``getRegisterInfo``,
-``getFrameInfo``, etc.). This class is designed to be specialized by a concrete
-target implementation (e.g., ``X86TargetMachine``) which implements the various
-virtual methods. The only required target description class is the
-:raw-html:`<tt>` `DataLayout`_ :raw-html:`</tt>` class, but if the code
-generator components are to be used, the other interfaces should be implemented
-as well.
-
-.. _DataLayout:
-
-The ``DataLayout`` class
-------------------------
-
-The ``DataLayout`` class is the only required target description class, and it
-is the only class that is not extensible (you cannot derive a new class from
-it). ``DataLayout`` specifies information about how the target lays out memory
-for structures, the alignment requirements for various data types, the size of
-pointers in the target, and whether the target is little-endian or
-big-endian.
-
-.. _TargetLowering:
-
-The ``TargetLowering`` class
-----------------------------
-
-The ``TargetLowering`` class is used by SelectionDAG based instruction selectors
-primarily to describe how LLVM code should be lowered to SelectionDAG
-operations. Among other things, this class indicates:
-
-* an initial register class to use for various ``ValueType``\s,
-
-* which operations are natively supported by the target machine,
-
-* the return type of ``setcc`` operations,
-
-* the type to use for shift amounts, and
-
-* various high-level characteristics, like whether it is profitable to turn
- division by a constant into a multiplication sequence.
-
-.. _TargetRegisterInfo:
-
-The ``TargetRegisterInfo`` class
---------------------------------
-
-The ``TargetRegisterInfo`` class is used to describe the register file of the
-target and any interactions between the registers.
-
-Registers are represented in the code generator by unsigned integers. Physical
-registers (those that actually exist in the target description) are unique
-small numbers, and virtual registers are generally large. Note that
-register ``#0`` is reserved as a flag value.
-
-Each register in the processor description has an associated
-``TargetRegisterDesc`` entry, which provides a textual name for the register
-(used for assembly output and debugging dumps) and a set of aliases (used to
-indicate whether one register overlaps with another).
-
-In addition to the per-register description, the ``TargetRegisterInfo`` class
-exposes a set of processor specific register classes (instances of the
-``TargetRegisterClass`` class). Each register class contains sets of registers
-that have the same properties (for example, they are all 32-bit integer
-registers). Each SSA virtual register created by the instruction selector has
-an associated register class. When the register allocator runs, it replaces
-virtual registers with a physical register in the set.
-
-The target-specific implementations of these classes is auto-generated from a
-:doc:`TableGen/index` description of the register file.
-
-.. _TargetInstrInfo:
-
-The ``TargetInstrInfo`` class
------------------------------
-
-The ``TargetInstrInfo`` class is used to describe the machine instructions
-supported by the target. Descriptions define things like the mnemonic for
-the opcode, the number of operands, the list of implicit register uses and defs,
-whether the instruction has certain target-independent properties (accesses
-memory, is commutable, etc), and holds any target-specific flags.
-
-The ``TargetFrameLowering`` class
----------------------------------
-
-The ``TargetFrameLowering`` class is used to provide information about the stack
-frame layout of the target. It holds the direction of stack growth, the known
-stack alignment on entry to each function, and the offset to the local area.
-The offset to the local area is the offset from the stack pointer on function
-entry to the first location where function data (local variables, spill
-locations) can be stored.
-
-The ``TargetSubtarget`` class
------------------------------
-
-The ``TargetSubtarget`` class is used to provide information about the specific
-chip set being targeted. A sub-target informs code generation of which
-instructions are supported, instruction latencies and instruction execution
-itinerary; i.e., which processing units are used, in what order, and for how
-long.
-
-The ``TargetJITInfo`` class
----------------------------
-
-The ``TargetJITInfo`` class exposes an abstract interface used by the
-Just-In-Time code generator to perform target-specific activities, such as
-emitting stubs. If a ``TargetMachine`` supports JIT code generation, it should
-provide one of these objects through the ``getJITInfo`` method.
-
-.. _code being generated:
-.. _machine code representation:
-
-Machine code description classes
-================================
-
-At the high-level, LLVM code is translated to a machine specific representation
-formed out of :raw-html:`<tt>` `MachineFunction`_ :raw-html:`</tt>`,
-:raw-html:`<tt>` `MachineBasicBlock`_ :raw-html:`</tt>`, and :raw-html:`<tt>`
-`MachineInstr`_ :raw-html:`</tt>` instances (defined in
-``include/llvm/CodeGen``). This representation is completely target agnostic,
-representing instructions in their most abstract form: an opcode and a series of
-operands. This representation is designed to support both an SSA representation
-for machine code, as well as a register allocated, non-SSA form.
-
-.. _MachineInstr:
-
-The ``MachineInstr`` class
---------------------------
-
-Target machine instructions are represented as instances of the ``MachineInstr``
-class. This class is an extremely abstract way of representing machine
-instructions. In particular, it only keeps track of an opcode number and a set
-of operands.
-
-The opcode number is a simple unsigned integer that only has meaning to a
-specific backend. All of the instructions for a target should be defined in the
-``*InstrInfo.td`` file for the target. The opcode enum values are auto-generated
-from this description. The ``MachineInstr`` class does not have any information
-about how to interpret the instruction (i.e., what the semantics of the
-instruction are); for that you must refer to the :raw-html:`<tt>`
-`TargetInstrInfo`_ :raw-html:`</tt>` class.
-
-The operands of a machine instruction can be of several different types: a
-register reference, a constant integer, a basic block reference, etc. In
-addition, a machine operand should be marked as a def or a use of the value
-(though only registers are allowed to be defs).
-
-By convention, the LLVM code generator orders instruction operands so that all
-register definitions come before the register uses, even on architectures that
-are normally printed in other orders. For example, the SPARC add instruction:
-"``add %i1, %i2, %i3``" adds the "%i1", and "%i2" registers and stores the
-result into the "%i3" register. In the LLVM code generator, the operands should
-be stored as "``%i3, %i1, %i2``": with the destination first.
-
-Keeping destination (definition) operands at the beginning of the operand list
-has several advantages. In particular, the debugging printer will print the
-instruction like this:
-
-.. code-block:: llvm
-
- %r3 = add %i1, %i2
-
-Also if the first operand is a def, it is easier to `create instructions`_ whose
-only def is the first operand.
-
-.. _create instructions:
-
-Using the ``MachineInstrBuilder.h`` functions
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Machine instructions are created by using the ``BuildMI`` functions, located in
-the ``include/llvm/CodeGen/MachineInstrBuilder.h`` file. The ``BuildMI``
-functions make it easy to build arbitrary machine instructions. Usage of the
-``BuildMI`` functions look like this:
-
-.. code-block:: c++
-
- // Create a 'DestReg = mov 42' (rendered in X86 assembly as 'mov DestReg, 42')
- // instruction and insert it at the end of the given MachineBasicBlock.
- const TargetInstrInfo &TII = ...
- MachineBasicBlock &MBB = ...
- DebugLoc DL;
- MachineInstr *MI = BuildMI(MBB, DL, TII.get(X86::MOV32ri), DestReg).addImm(42);
-
- // Create the same instr, but insert it before a specified iterator point.
- MachineBasicBlock::iterator MBBI = ...
- BuildMI(MBB, MBBI, DL, TII.get(X86::MOV32ri), DestReg).addImm(42);
-
- // Create a 'cmp Reg, 0' instruction, no destination reg.
- MI = BuildMI(MBB, DL, TII.get(X86::CMP32ri8)).addReg(Reg).addImm(42);
-
- // Create an 'sahf' instruction which takes no operands and stores nothing.
- MI = BuildMI(MBB, DL, TII.get(X86::SAHF));
-
- // Create a self looping branch instruction.
- BuildMI(MBB, DL, TII.get(X86::JNE)).addMBB(&MBB);
-
-If you need to add a definition operand (other than the optional destination
-register), you must explicitly mark it as such:
-
-.. code-block:: c++
-
- MI.addReg(Reg, RegState::Define);
-
-Fixed (preassigned) registers
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-One important issue that the code generator needs to be aware of is the presence
-of fixed registers. In particular, there are often places in the instruction
-stream where the register allocator *must* arrange for a particular value to be
-in a particular register. This can occur due to limitations of the instruction
-set (e.g., the X86 can only do a 32-bit divide with the ``EAX``/``EDX``
-registers), or external factors like calling conventions. In any case, the
-instruction selector should emit code that copies a virtual register into or out
-of a physical register when needed.
-
-For example, consider this simple LLVM example:
-
-.. code-block:: llvm
-
- define i32 @test(i32 %X, i32 %Y) {
- %Z = sdiv i32 %X, %Y
- ret i32 %Z
- }
-
-The X86 instruction selector might produce this machine code for the ``div`` and
-``ret``:
-
-.. code-block:: text
-
- ;; Start of div
- %EAX = mov %reg1024 ;; Copy X (in reg1024) into EAX
- %reg1027 = sar %reg1024, 31
- %EDX = mov %reg1027 ;; Sign extend X into EDX
- idiv %reg1025 ;; Divide by Y (in reg1025)
- %reg1026 = mov %EAX ;; Read the result (Z) out of EAX
-
- ;; Start of ret
- %EAX = mov %reg1026 ;; 32-bit return value goes in EAX
- ret
-
-By the end of code generation, the register allocator would coalesce the
-registers and delete the resultant identity moves producing the following
-code:
-
-.. code-block:: text
-
- ;; X is in EAX, Y is in ECX
- mov %EAX, %EDX
- sar %EDX, 31
- idiv %ECX
- ret
-
-This approach is extremely general (if it can handle the X86 architecture, it
-can handle anything!) and allows all of the target specific knowledge about the
-instruction stream to be isolated in the instruction selector. Note that
-physical registers should have a short lifetime for good code generation, and
-all physical registers are assumed dead on entry to and exit from basic blocks
-(before register allocation). Thus, if you need a value to be live across basic
-block boundaries, it *must* live in a virtual register.
-
-Call-clobbered registers
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Some machine instructions, like calls, clobber a large number of physical
-registers. Rather than adding ``<def,dead>`` operands for all of them, it is
-possible to use an ``MO_RegisterMask`` operand instead. The register mask
-operand holds a bit mask of preserved registers, and everything else is
-considered to be clobbered by the instruction.
-
-Machine code in SSA form
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-``MachineInstr``'s are initially selected in SSA-form, and are maintained in
-SSA-form until register allocation happens. For the most part, this is
-trivially simple since LLVM is already in SSA form; LLVM PHI nodes become
-machine code PHI nodes, and virtual registers are only allowed to have a single
-definition.
-
-After register allocation, machine code is no longer in SSA-form because there
-are no virtual registers left in the code.
-
-.. _MachineBasicBlock:
-
-The ``MachineBasicBlock`` class
--------------------------------
-
-The ``MachineBasicBlock`` class contains a list of machine instructions
-(:raw-html:`<tt>` `MachineInstr`_ :raw-html:`</tt>` instances). It roughly
-corresponds to the LLVM code input to the instruction selector, but there can be
-a one-to-many mapping (i.e. one LLVM basic block can map to multiple machine
-basic blocks). The ``MachineBasicBlock`` class has a "``getBasicBlock``" method,
-which returns the LLVM basic block that it comes from.
-
-.. _MachineFunction:
-
-The ``MachineFunction`` class
------------------------------
-
-The ``MachineFunction`` class contains a list of machine basic blocks
-(:raw-html:`<tt>` `MachineBasicBlock`_ :raw-html:`</tt>` instances). It
-corresponds one-to-one with the LLVM function input to the instruction selector.
-In addition to a list of basic blocks, the ``MachineFunction`` contains a a
-``MachineConstantPool``, a ``MachineFrameInfo``, a ``MachineFunctionInfo``, and
-a ``MachineRegisterInfo``. See ``include/llvm/CodeGen/MachineFunction.h`` for
-more information.
-
-``MachineInstr Bundles``
-------------------------
-
-LLVM code generator can model sequences of instructions as MachineInstr
-bundles. A MI bundle can model a VLIW group / pack which contains an arbitrary
-number of parallel instructions. It can also be used to model a sequential list
-of instructions (potentially with data dependencies) that cannot be legally
-separated (e.g. ARM Thumb2 IT blocks).
-
-Conceptually a MI bundle is a MI with a number of other MIs nested within:
-
-::
-
- --------------
- | Bundle | ---------
- -------------- \
- | ----------------
- | | MI |
- | ----------------
- | |
- | ----------------
- | | MI |
- | ----------------
- | |
- | ----------------
- | | MI |
- | ----------------
- |
- --------------
- | Bundle | --------
- -------------- \
- | ----------------
- | | MI |
- | ----------------
- | |
- | ----------------
- | | MI |
- | ----------------
- | |
- | ...
- |
- --------------
- | Bundle | --------
- -------------- \
- |
- ...
-
-MI bundle support does not change the physical representations of
-MachineBasicBlock and MachineInstr. All the MIs (including top level and nested
-ones) are stored as sequential list of MIs. The "bundled" MIs are marked with
-the 'InsideBundle' flag. A top level MI with the special BUNDLE opcode is used
-to represent the start of a bundle. It's legal to mix BUNDLE MIs with indiviual
-MIs that are not inside bundles nor represent bundles.
-
-MachineInstr passes should operate on a MI bundle as a single unit. Member
-methods have been taught to correctly handle bundles and MIs inside bundles.
-The MachineBasicBlock iterator has been modified to skip over bundled MIs to
-enforce the bundle-as-a-single-unit concept. An alternative iterator
-instr_iterator has been added to MachineBasicBlock to allow passes to iterate
-over all of the MIs in a MachineBasicBlock, including those which are nested
-inside bundles. The top level BUNDLE instruction must have the correct set of
-register MachineOperand's that represent the cumulative inputs and outputs of
-the bundled MIs.
-
-Packing / bundling of MachineInstr's should be done as part of the register
-allocation super-pass. More specifically, the pass which determines what MIs
-should be bundled together must be done after code generator exits SSA form
-(i.e. after two-address pass, PHI elimination, and copy coalescing). Bundles
-should only be finalized (i.e. adding BUNDLE MIs and input and output register
-MachineOperands) after virtual registers have been rewritten into physical
-registers. This requirement eliminates the need to add virtual register operands
-to BUNDLE instructions which would effectively double the virtual register def
-and use lists.
-
-.. _MC Layer:
-
-The "MC" Layer
-==============
-
-The MC Layer is used to represent and process code at the raw machine code
-level, devoid of "high level" information like "constant pools", "jump tables",
-"global variables" or anything like that. At this level, LLVM handles things
-like label names, machine instructions, and sections in the object file. The
-code in this layer is used for a number of important purposes: the tail end of
-the code generator uses it to write a .s or .o file, and it is also used by the
-llvm-mc tool to implement standalone machine code assemblers and disassemblers.
-
-This section describes some of the important classes. There are also a number
-of important subsystems that interact at this layer, they are described later in
-this manual.
-
-.. _MCStreamer:
-
-The ``MCStreamer`` API
-----------------------
-
-MCStreamer is best thought of as an assembler API. It is an abstract API which
-is *implemented* in different ways (e.g. to output a .s file, output an ELF .o
-file, etc) but whose API correspond directly to what you see in a .s file.
-MCStreamer has one method per directive, such as EmitLabel, EmitSymbolAttribute,
-SwitchSection, EmitValue (for .byte, .word), etc, which directly correspond to
-assembly level directives. It also has an EmitInstruction method, which is used
-to output an MCInst to the streamer.
-
-This API is most important for two clients: the llvm-mc stand-alone assembler is
-effectively a parser that parses a line, then invokes a method on MCStreamer. In
-the code generator, the `Code Emission`_ phase of the code generator lowers
-higher level LLVM IR and Machine* constructs down to the MC layer, emitting
-directives through MCStreamer.
-
-On the implementation side of MCStreamer, there are two major implementations:
-one for writing out a .s file (MCAsmStreamer), and one for writing out a .o
-file (MCObjectStreamer). MCAsmStreamer is a straightforward implementation
-that prints out a directive for each method (e.g. ``EmitValue -> .byte``), but
-MCObjectStreamer implements a full assembler.
-
-For target specific directives, the MCStreamer has a MCTargetStreamer instance.
-Each target that needs it defines a class that inherits from it and is a lot
-like MCStreamer itself: It has one method per directive and two classes that
-inherit from it, a target object streamer and a target asm streamer. The target
-asm streamer just prints it (``emitFnStart -> .fnstart``), and the object
-streamer implement the assembler logic for it.
-
-To make llvm use these classes, the target initialization must call
-TargetRegistry::RegisterAsmStreamer and TargetRegistry::RegisterMCObjectStreamer
-passing callbacks that allocate the corresponding target streamer and pass it
-to createAsmStreamer or to the appropriate object streamer constructor.
-
-The ``MCContext`` class
------------------------
-
-The MCContext class is the owner of a variety of uniqued data structures at the
-MC layer, including symbols, sections, etc. As such, this is the class that you
-interact with to create symbols and sections. This class can not be subclassed.
-
-The ``MCSymbol`` class
-----------------------
-
-The MCSymbol class represents a symbol (aka label) in the assembly file. There
-are two interesting kinds of symbols: assembler temporary symbols, and normal
-symbols. Assembler temporary symbols are used and processed by the assembler
-but are discarded when the object file is produced. The distinction is usually
-represented by adding a prefix to the label, for example "L" labels are
-assembler temporary labels in MachO.
-
-MCSymbols are created by MCContext and uniqued there. This means that MCSymbols
-can be compared for pointer equivalence to find out if they are the same symbol.
-Note that pointer inequality does not guarantee the labels will end up at
-different addresses though. It's perfectly legal to output something like this
-to the .s file:
-
-::
-
- foo:
- bar:
- .byte 4
-
-In this case, both the foo and bar symbols will have the same address.
-
-The ``MCSection`` class
------------------------
-
-The ``MCSection`` class represents an object-file specific section. It is
-subclassed by object file specific implementations (e.g. ``MCSectionMachO``,
-``MCSectionCOFF``, ``MCSectionELF``) and these are created and uniqued by
-MCContext. The MCStreamer has a notion of the current section, which can be
-changed with the SwitchToSection method (which corresponds to a ".section"
-directive in a .s file).
-
-.. _MCInst:
-
-The ``MCInst`` class
---------------------
-
-The ``MCInst`` class is a target-independent representation of an instruction.
-It is a simple class (much more so than `MachineInstr`_) that holds a
-target-specific opcode and a vector of MCOperands. MCOperand, in turn, is a
-simple discriminated union of three cases: 1) a simple immediate, 2) a target
-register ID, 3) a symbolic expression (e.g. "``Lfoo-Lbar+42``") as an MCExpr.
-
-MCInst is the common currency used to represent machine instructions at the MC
-layer. It is the type used by the instruction encoder, the instruction printer,
-and the type generated by the assembly parser and disassembler.

-=============================================
-
-This section documents the phases described in the `high-level design of the
-code generator`_. It explains how they work and some of the rationale behind
-their design.
-
-.. _Instruction Selection:
-.. _instruction selection section:
-
-Instruction Selection
----------------------
-
-Instruction Selection is the process of translating LLVM code presented to the
-code generator into target-specific machine instructions. There are several
-well-known ways to do this in the literature. LLVM uses a SelectionDAG based
-instruction selector.
-
-Portions of the DAG instruction selector are generated from the target
-description (``*.td``) files. Our goal is for the entire instruction selector
-to be generated from these ``.td`` files, though currently there are still
-things that require custom C++ code.
-
-.. _SelectionDAG:
-
-Introduction to SelectionDAGs
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The SelectionDAG provides an abstraction for code representation in a way that
-is amenable to instruction selection using automatic techniques
-(e.g. dynamic-programming based optimal pattern matching selectors). It is also
-well-suited to other phases of code generation; in particular, instruction
-scheduling (SelectionDAG's are very close to scheduling DAGs post-selection).
-Additionally, the SelectionDAG provides a host representation where a large
-variety of very-low-level (but target-independent) `optimizations`_ may be
-performed; ones which require extensive information about the instructions
-efficiently supported by the target.
-
-The SelectionDAG is a Directed-Acyclic-Graph whose nodes are instances of the
-``SDNode`` class. The primary payload of the ``SDNode`` is its operation code
-(Opcode) that indicates what operation the node performs and the operands to the
-operation. The various operation node types are described at the top of the
-``include/llvm/CodeGen/ISDOpcodes.h`` file.
-
-Although most operations define a single value, each node in the graph may
-define multiple values. For example, a combined div/rem operation will define
-both the dividend and the remainder. Many other situations require multiple
-values as well. Each node also has some number of operands, which are edges to
-the node defining the used value. Because nodes may define multiple values,
-edges are represented by instances of the ``SDValue`` class, which is a
-``<SDNode, unsigned>`` pair, indicating the node and result value being used,
-respectively. Each value produced by an ``SDNode`` has an associated ``MVT``
-(Machine Value Type) indicating what the type of the value is.
-
-SelectionDAGs contain two different kinds of values: those that represent data
-flow and those that represent control flow dependencies. Data values are simple
-edges with an integer or floating point value type. Control edges are
-represented as "chain" edges which are of type ``MVT::Other``. These edges
-provide an ordering between nodes that have side effects (such as loads, stores,
-calls, returns, etc). All nodes that have side effects should take a token
-chain as input and produce a new one as output. By convention, token chain
-inputs are always operand #0, and chain results are always the last value
-produced by an operation. However, after instruction selection, the
-machine nodes have their chain after the instruction's operands, and
-may be followed by glue nodes.
-
-A SelectionDAG has designated "Entry" and "Root" nodes. The Entry node is
-always a marker node with an Opcode of ``ISD::EntryToken``. The Root node is
-the final side-effecting node in the token chain. For example, in a single basic
-block function it would be the return node.
-
-One important concept for SelectionDAGs is the notion of a "legal" vs.
-"illegal" DAG. A legal DAG for a target is one that only uses supported
-operations and supported types. On a 32-bit PowerPC, for example, a DAG with a
-value of type i1, i8, i16, or i64 would be illegal, as would a DAG that uses a
-SREM or UREM operation. The `legalize types`_ and `legalize operations`_ phases
-are responsible for turning an illegal DAG into a legal DAG.
-
-.. _SelectionDAG-Process:
-
-SelectionDAG Instruction Selection Process
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-SelectionDAG-based instruction selection consists of the following steps:
-
-#. `Build initial DAG`_ --- This stage performs a simple translation from the
- input LLVM code to an illegal SelectionDAG.
-
-#. `Optimize SelectionDAG`_ --- This stage performs simple optimizations on the
- SelectionDAG to simplify it, and recognize meta instructions (like rotates
- and ``div``/``rem`` pairs) for targets that support these meta operations.
- This makes the resultant code more efficient and the `select instructions
- from DAG`_ phase (below) simpler.
-
-#. `Legalize SelectionDAG Types`_ --- This stage transforms SelectionDAG nodes
- to eliminate any types that are unsupported on the target.
-
-#. `Optimize SelectionDAG`_ --- The SelectionDAG optimizer is run to clean up
- redundancies exposed by type legalization.
-
-#. `Legalize SelectionDAG Ops`_ --- This stage transforms SelectionDAG nodes to
- eliminate any operations that are unsupported on the target.
-
-#. `Optimize SelectionDAG`_ --- The SelectionDAG optimizer is run to eliminate
- inefficiencies introduced by operation legalization.
-
-#. `Select instructions from DAG`_ --- Finally, the target instruction selector
- matches the DAG operations to target instructions. This process translates
- the target-independent input DAG into another DAG of target instructions.
-
-#. `SelectionDAG Scheduling and Formation`_ --- The last phase assigns a linear
- order to the instructions in the target-instruction DAG and emits them into
- the MachineFunction being compiled. This step uses traditional prepass
- scheduling techniques.
-
-After all of these steps are complete, the SelectionDAG is destroyed and the
-rest of the code generation passes are run.
-
-One great way to visualize what is going on here is to take advantage of a few
-LLC command line options. The following options pop up a window displaying the
-SelectionDAG at specific times (if you only get errors printed to the console
-while using this, you probably `need to configure your
-system <ProgrammersManual.html#viewing-graphs-while-debugging-code>`_ to add support for it).
-
-* ``-view-dag-combine1-dags`` displays the DAG after being built, before the
- first optimization pass.
-
-* ``-view-legalize-dags`` displays the DAG before Legalization.
-
-* ``-view-dag-combine2-dags`` displays the DAG before the second optimization
- pass.
-
-* ``-view-isel-dags`` displays the DAG before the Select phase.
-
-* ``-view-sched-dags`` displays the DAG before Scheduling.
-
-The ``-view-sunit-dags`` displays the Scheduler's dependency graph. This graph
-is based on the final SelectionDAG, with nodes that must be scheduled together
-bundled into a single scheduling-unit node, and with immediate operands and
-other nodes that aren't relevant for scheduling omitted.
-
-The option ``-filter-view-dags`` allows to select the name of the basic block
-that you are interested to visualize and filters all the previous
-``view-*-dags`` options.
-
-.. _Build initial DAG:
-
-Initial SelectionDAG Construction
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The initial SelectionDAG is na\ :raw-html:`ï`\ vely peephole expanded from
-the LLVM input by the ``SelectionDAGBuilder`` class. The intent of this pass
-is to expose as much low-level, target-specific details to the SelectionDAG as
-possible. This pass is mostly hard-coded (e.g. an LLVM ``add`` turns into an
-``SDNode add`` while a ``getelementptr`` is expanded into the obvious
-arithmetic). This pass requires target-specific hooks to lower calls, returns,
-varargs, etc. For these features, the :raw-html:`<tt>` `TargetLowering`_
-:raw-html:`</tt>` interface is used.
-
-.. _legalize types:
-.. _Legalize SelectionDAG Types:
-.. _Legalize SelectionDAG Ops:
-
-SelectionDAG LegalizeTypes Phase
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The Legalize phase is in charge of converting a DAG to only use the types that
-are natively supported by the target.
-
-There are two main ways of converting values of unsupported scalar types to
-values of supported types: converting small types to larger types ("promoting"),
-and breaking up large integer types into smaller ones ("expanding"). For
-example, a target might require that all f32 values are promoted to f64 and that
-all i1/i8/i16 values are promoted to i32. The same target might require that
-all i64 values be expanded into pairs of i32 values. These changes can insert
-sign and zero extensions as needed to make sure that the final code has the same
-behavior as the input.
-
-There are two main ways of converting values of unsupported vector types to
-value of supported types: splitting vector types, multiple times if necessary,
-until a legal type is found, and extending vector types by adding elements to
-the end to round them out to legal types ("widening"). If a vector gets split
-all the way down to single-element parts with no supported vector type being
-found, the elements are converted to scalars ("scalarizing").
-
-A target implementation tells the legalizer which types are supported (and which
-register class to use for them) by calling the ``addRegisterClass`` method in
-its ``TargetLowering`` constructor.
-
-.. _legalize operations:
-.. _Legalizer:
-
-SelectionDAG Legalize Phase
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The Legalize phase is in charge of converting a DAG to only use the operations
-that are natively supported by the target.
-
-Targets often have weird constraints, such as not supporting every operation on
-every supported datatype (e.g. X86 does not support byte conditional moves and
-PowerPC does not support sign-extending loads from a 16-bit memory location).
-Legalize takes care of this by open-coding another sequence of operations to
-emulate the operation ("expansion"), by promoting one type to a larger type that
-supports the operation ("promotion"), or by using a target-specific hook to
-implement the legalization ("custom").
-
-A target implementation tells the legalizer which operations are not supported
-(and which of the above three actions to take) by calling the
-``setOperationAction`` method in its ``TargetLowering`` constructor.
-
-Prior to the existence of the Legalize passes, we required that every target
-`selector`_ supported and handled every operator and type even if they are not
-natively supported. The introduction of the Legalize phases allows all of the
-canonicalization patterns to be shared across targets, and makes it very easy to
-optimize the canonicalized code because it is still in the form of a DAG.
-

-.. _Optimize SelectionDAG:
-.. _selector:
-
-SelectionDAG Optimization Phase: the DAG Combiner
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The SelectionDAG optimization phase is run multiple times for code generation,
-immediately after the DAG is built and once after each legalization. The first
-run of the pass allows the initial code to be cleaned up (e.g. performing
-optimizations that depend on knowing that the operators have restricted type
-inputs). Subsequent runs of the pass clean up the messy code generated by the
-Legalize passes, which allows Legalize to be very simple (it can focus on making
-code legal instead of focusing on generating *good* and legal code).
-
-One important class of optimizations performed is optimizing inserted sign and
-zero extension instructions. We currently use ad-hoc techniques, but could move
-to more rigorous techniques in the future. Here are some good papers on the
-subject:

-.. _Select instructions from DAG:
-
-SelectionDAG Select Phase
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The Select phase is the bulk of the target-specific code for instruction
-selection. This phase takes a legal SelectionDAG as input, pattern matches the
-instructions supported by the target to this DAG, and produces a new DAG of
-target code. For example, consider the following LLVM fragment:
-
-.. code-block:: llvm
-
- %t1 = fadd float %W, %X
- %t2 = fmul float %t1, %Y
- %t3 = fadd float %t2, %Z
-
-This LLVM code corresponds to a SelectionDAG that looks basically like this:
-
-.. code-block:: text
-
- (fadd:f32 (fmul:f32 (fadd:f32 W, X), Y), Z)
-
-If a target supports floating point multiply-and-add (FMA) operations, one of
-the adds can be merged with the multiply. On the PowerPC, for example, the
-output of the instruction selector might look like this DAG:
-
-::
-
- (FMADDS (FADDS W, X), Y, Z)
-
-The ``FMADDS`` instruction is a ternary instruction that multiplies its first
-two operands and adds the third (as single-precision floating-point numbers).
-The ``FADDS`` instruction is a simple binary single-precision add instruction.
-To perform this pattern match, the PowerPC backend includes the following
-instruction definitions:
-
-.. code-block:: text
- :emphasize-lines: 4-5,9
-
- def FMADDS : AForm_1<59, 29,
- (ops F4RC:$FRT, F4RC:$FRA, F4RC:$FRC, F4RC:$FRB),
- "fmadds $FRT, $FRA, $FRC, $FRB",
- [(set F4RC:$FRT, (fadd (fmul F4RC:$FRA, F4RC:$FRC),
- F4RC:$FRB))]>;
- def FADDS : AForm_2<59, 21,
- (ops F4RC:$FRT, F4RC:$FRA, F4RC:$FRB),
- "fadds $FRT, $FRA, $FRB",
- [(set F4RC:$FRT, (fadd F4RC:$FRA, F4RC:$FRB))]>;
-
-The highlighted portion of the instruction definitions indicates the pattern
-used to match the instructions. The DAG operators (like ``fmul``/``fadd``)
-are defined in the ``include/llvm/Target/TargetSelectionDAG.td`` file.
-"``F4RC``" is the register class of the input and result values.
-
-The TableGen DAG instruction selector generator reads the instruction patterns
-in the ``.td`` file and automatically builds parts of the pattern matching code
-for your target. It has the following strengths:
-
-* At compiler-compile time, it analyzes your instruction patterns and tells you
- if your patterns make sense or not.
-
-* It can handle arbitrary constraints on operands for the pattern match. In
- particular, it is straight-forward to say things like "match any immediate
- that is a 13-bit sign-extended value". For examples, see the ``immSExt16``
- and related ``tblgen`` classes in the PowerPC backend.
-
-* It knows several important identities for the patterns defined. For example,
- it knows that addition is commutative, so it allows the ``FMADDS`` pattern
- above to match "``(fadd X, (fmul Y, Z))``" as well as "``(fadd (fmul X, Y),
- Z)``", without the target author having to specially handle this case.
-
-* It has a full-featured type-inferencing system. In particular, you should
- rarely have to explicitly tell the system what type parts of your patterns
- are. In the ``FMADDS`` case above, we didn't have to tell ``tblgen`` that all
- of the nodes in the pattern are of type 'f32'. It was able to infer and
- propagate this knowledge from the fact that ``F4RC`` has type 'f32'.
-
-* Targets can define their own (and rely on built-in) "pattern fragments".
- Pattern fragments are chunks of reusable patterns that get inlined into your
- patterns during compiler-compile time. For example, the integer "``(not
- x)``" operation is actually defined as a pattern fragment that expands as
- "``(xor x, -1)``", since the SelectionDAG does not have a native '``not``'
- operation. Targets can define their own short-hand fragments as they see fit.
- See the definition of '``not``' and '``ineg``' for examples.
-
-* In addition to instructions, targets can specify arbitrary patterns that map
- to one or more instructions using the 'Pat' class. For example, the PowerPC
- has no way to load an arbitrary integer immediate into a register in one
- instruction. To tell tblgen how to do this, it defines:
-
- ::
-
- // Arbitrary immediate support. Implement in terms of LIS/ORI.
- def : Pat<(i32 imm:$imm),
- (ORI (LIS (HI16 imm:$imm)), (LO16 imm:$imm))>;
-
- If none of the single-instruction patterns for loading an immediate into a
- register match, this will be used. This rule says "match an arbitrary i32
- immediate, turning it into an ``ORI`` ('or a 16-bit immediate') and an ``LIS``
- ('load 16-bit immediate, where the immediate is shifted to the left 16 bits')
- instruction". To make this work, the ``LO16``/``HI16`` node transformations
- are used to manipulate the input immediate (in this case, take the high or low
- 16-bits of the immediate).
-
-* When using the 'Pat' class to map a pattern to an instruction that has one
- or more complex operands (like e.g. `X86 addressing mode`_), the pattern may
- either specify the operand as a whole using a ``ComplexPattern``, or else it
- may specify the components of the complex operand separately. The latter is
- done e.g. for pre-increment instructions by the PowerPC back end:
-
- ::
-
- def STWU : DForm_1<37, (outs ptr_rc:$ea_res), (ins GPRC:$rS, memri:$dst),
- "stwu $rS, $dst", LdStStoreUpd, []>,
- RegConstraint<"$dst.reg = $ea_res">, NoEncode<"$ea_res">;
-
- def : Pat<(pre_store GPRC:$rS, ptr_rc:$ptrreg, iaddroff:$ptroff),
- (STWU GPRC:$rS, iaddroff:$ptroff, ptr_rc:$ptrreg)>;
-
- Here, the pair of ``ptroff`` and ``ptrreg`` operands is matched onto the
- complex operand ``dst`` of class ``memri`` in the ``STWU`` instruction.
-
-* While the system does automate a lot, it still allows you to write custom C++
- code to match special cases if there is something that is hard to
- express.
-
-While it has many strengths, the system currently has some limitations,
-primarily because it is a work in progress and is not yet finished:
-
-* Overall, there is no way to define or match SelectionDAG nodes that define
- multiple values (e.g. ``SMUL_LOHI``, ``LOAD``, ``CALL``, etc). This is the
- biggest reason that you currently still *have to* write custom C++ code
- for your instruction selector.
-
-* There is no great way to support matching complex addressing modes yet. In
- the future, we will extend pattern fragments to allow them to define multiple
- values (e.g. the four operands of the `X86 addressing mode`_, which are
- currently matched with custom C++ code). In addition, we'll extend fragments
- so that a fragment can match multiple different patterns.
-
-* We don't automatically infer flags like ``isStore``/``isLoad`` yet.
-
-* We don't automatically generate the set of supported registers and operations
- for the `Legalizer`_ yet.
-
-* We don't have a way of tying in custom legalized nodes yet.
-
-Despite these limitations, the instruction selector generator is still quite
-useful for most of the binary and logical operations in typical instruction
-sets. If you run into any problems or can't figure out how to do something,
-please let Chris know!

-.. _Scheduling and Formation:
-.. _SelectionDAG Scheduling and Formation:
-
-SelectionDAG Scheduling and Formation Phase
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The scheduling phase takes the DAG of target instructions from the selection
-phase and assigns an order. The scheduler can pick an order depending on
-various constraints of the machines (i.e. order for minimal register pressure or
-try to cover instruction latencies). Once an order is established, the DAG is
-converted to a list of :raw-html:`<tt>` `MachineInstr`_\s :raw-html:`</tt>` and
-the SelectionDAG is destroyed.
-
-Note that this phase is logically separate from the instruction selection phase,
-but is tied to it closely in the code because it operates on SelectionDAGs.

-SSA-based Machine Code Optimizations
-------------------------------------
-
-To Be Written
-
-Live Intervals
---------------
-
-Live Intervals are the ranges (intervals) where a variable is *live*. They are
-used by some `register allocator`_ passes to determine if two or more virtual
-registers which require the same physical register are live at the same point in
-the program (i.e., they conflict). When this situation occurs, one virtual
-register must be *spilled*.
-
-Live Variable Analysis
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The first step in determining the live intervals of variables is to calculate
-the set of registers that are immediately dead after the instruction (i.e., the
-instruction calculates the value, but it is never used) and the set of registers
-that are used by the instruction, but are never used after the instruction
-(i.e., they are killed). Live variable information is computed for
-each *virtual* register and *register allocatable* physical register
-in the function. This is done in a very efficient manner because it uses SSA to
-sparsely compute lifetime information for virtual registers (which are in SSA
-form) and only has to track physical registers within a block. Before register
-allocation, LLVM can assume that physical registers are only live within a
-single basic block. This allows it to do a single, local analysis to resolve
-physical register lifetimes within each basic block. If a physical register is
-not register allocatable (e.g., a stack pointer or condition codes), it is not
-tracked.
-
-Physical registers may be live in to or out of a function. Live in values are
-typically arguments in registers. Live out values are typically return values in
-registers. Live in values are marked as such, and are given a dummy "defining"
-instruction during live intervals analysis. If the last basic block of a
-function is a ``return``, then it's marked as using all live out values in the
-function.
-
-``PHI`` nodes need to be handled specially, because the calculation of the live
-variable information from a depth first traversal of the CFG of the function
-won't guarantee that a virtual register used by the ``PHI`` node is defined
-before it's used. When a ``PHI`` node is encountered, only the definition is
-handled, because the uses will be handled in other basic blocks.
-
-For each ``PHI`` node of the current basic block, we simulate an assignment at
-the end of the current basic block and traverse the successor basic blocks. If a
-successor basic block has a ``PHI`` node and one of the ``PHI`` node's operands
-is coming from the current basic block, then the variable is marked as *alive*
-within the current basic block and all of its predecessor basic blocks, until
-the basic block with the defining instruction is encountered.
-
-Live Intervals Analysis
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-We now have the information available to perform the live intervals analysis and
-build the live intervals themselves. We start off by numbering the basic blocks
-and machine instructions. We then handle the "live-in" values. These are in
-physical registers, so the physical register is assumed to be killed by the end
-of the basic block. Live intervals for virtual registers are computed for some
-ordering of the machine instructions ``[1, N]``. A live interval is an interval
-``[i, j)``, where ``1 >= i >= j > N``, for which a variable is live.
-

-.. _Register Allocation:
-.. _register allocator:
-
-Register Allocation
--------------------
-
-The *Register Allocation problem* consists in mapping a program
-:raw-html:`<b><tt>` P\ :sub:`v`\ :raw-html:`</tt></b>`, that can use an unbounded
-number of virtual registers, to a program :raw-html:`<b><tt>` P\ :sub:`p`\
-:raw-html:`</tt></b>` that contains a finite (possibly small) number of physical
-registers. Each target architecture has a different number of physical
-registers. If the number of physical registers is not enough to accommodate all
-the virtual registers, some of them will have to be mapped into memory. These
-virtuals are called *spilled virtuals*.
-
-How registers are represented in LLVM
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-In LLVM, physical registers are denoted by integer numbers that normally range
-from 1 to 1023. To see how this numbering is defined for a particular
-architecture, you can read the ``GenRegisterNames.inc`` file for that
-architecture. For instance, by inspecting
-``lib/Target/X86/X86GenRegisterInfo.inc`` we see that the 32-bit register
-``EAX`` is denoted by 43, and the MMX register ``MM0`` is mapped to 65.
-
-Some architectures contain registers that share the same physical location. A
-notable example is the X86 platform. For instance, in the X86 architecture, the
-registers ``EAX``, ``AX`` and ``AL`` share the first eight bits. These physical
-registers are marked as *aliased* in LLVM. Given a particular architecture, you
-can check which registers are aliased by inspecting its ``RegisterInfo.td``
-file. Moreover, the class ``MCRegAliasIterator`` enumerates all the physical
-registers aliased to a register.
-
-Physical registers, in LLVM, are grouped in *Register Classes*. Elements in the
-same register class are functionally equivalent, and can be interchangeably
-used. Each virtual register can only be mapped to physical registers of a
-particular class. For instance, in the X86 architecture, some virtuals can only
-be allocated to 8 bit registers. A register class is described by
-``TargetRegisterClass`` objects. To discover if a virtual register is
-compatible with a given physical, this code can be used:
-
-.. code-block:: c++
-
- bool RegMapping_Fer::compatible_class(MachineFunction &mf,
- unsigned v_reg,
- unsigned p_reg) {
- assert(TargetRegisterInfo::isPhysicalRegister(p_reg) &&
- "Target register must be physical");
- const TargetRegisterClass *trc = mf.getRegInfo().getRegClass(v_reg);
- return trc->contains(p_reg);
- }
-
-Sometimes, mostly for debugging purposes, it is useful to change the number of
-physical registers available in the target architecture. This must be done
-statically, inside the ``TargetRegsterInfo.td`` file. Just ``grep`` for
-``RegisterClass``, the last parameter of which is a list of registers. Just
-commenting some out is one simple way to avoid them being used. A more polite
-way is to explicitly exclude some registers from the *allocation order*. See the
-definition of the ``GR8`` register class in
-``lib/Target/X86/X86RegisterInfo.td`` for an example of this.
-
-Virtual registers are also denoted by integer numbers. Contrary to physical
-registers, different virtual registers never share the same number. Whereas
-physical registers are statically defined in a ``TargetRegisterInfo.td`` file
-and cannot be created by the application developer, that is not the case with
-virtual registers. In order to create new virtual registers, use the method
-``MachineRegisterInfo::createVirtualRegister()``. This method will return a new
-virtual register. Use an ``IndexedMap<Foo, VirtReg2IndexFunctor>`` to hold
-information per virtual register. If you need to enumerate all virtual
-registers, use the function ``TargetRegisterInfo::index2VirtReg()`` to find the
-virtual register numbers:
-
-.. code-block:: c++
-
- for (unsigned i = 0, e = MRI->getNumVirtRegs(); i != e; ++i) {
- unsigned VirtReg = TargetRegisterInfo::index2VirtReg(i);
- stuff(VirtReg);
- }
-
-Before register allocation, the operands of an instruction are mostly virtual
-registers, although physical registers may also be used. In order to check if a
-given machine operand is a register, use the boolean function
-``MachineOperand::isRegister()``. To obtain the integer code of a register, use
-``MachineOperand::getReg()``. An instruction may define or use a register. For
-instance, ``ADD reg:1026 := reg:1025 reg:1024`` defines the registers 1024, and
-uses registers 1025 and 1026. Given a register operand, the method
-``MachineOperand::isUse()`` informs if that register is being used by the
-instruction. The method ``MachineOperand::isDef()`` informs if that registers is
-being defined.
-
-We will call physical registers present in the LLVM bitcode before register
-allocation *pre-colored registers*. Pre-colored registers are used in many
-different situations, for instance, to pass parameters of functions calls, and
-to store results of particular instructions. There are two types of pre-colored
-registers: the ones *implicitly* defined, and those *explicitly*
-defined. Explicitly defined registers are normal operands, and can be accessed
-with ``MachineInstr::getOperand(int)::getReg()``. In order to check which
-registers are implicitly defined by an instruction, use the
-``TargetInstrInfo::get(opcode)::ImplicitDefs``, where ``opcode`` is the opcode
-of the target instruction. One important difference between explicit and
-implicit physical registers is that the latter are defined statically for each
-instruction, whereas the former may vary depending on the program being
-compiled. For example, an instruction that represents a function call will
-always implicitly define or use the same set of physical registers. To read the
-registers implicitly used by an instruction, use
-``TargetInstrInfo::get(opcode)::ImplicitUses``. Pre-colored registers impose
-constraints on any register allocation algorithm. The register allocator must
-make sure that none of them are overwritten by the values of virtual registers
-while still alive.
-
-Mapping virtual registers to physical registers
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-There are two ways to map virtual registers to physical registers (or to memory
-slots). The first way, that we will call *direct mapping*, is based on the use
-of methods of the classes ``TargetRegisterInfo``, and ``MachineOperand``. The
-second way, that we will call *indirect mapping*, relies on the ``VirtRegMap``
-class in order to insert loads and stores sending and getting values to and from
-memory.
-
-The direct mapping provides more flexibility to the developer of the register
-allocator; however, it is more error prone, and demands more implementation
-work. Basically, the programmer will have to specify where load and store
-instructions should be inserted in the target function being compiled in order
-to get and store values in memory. To assign a physical register to a virtual
-register present in a given operand, use ``MachineOperand::setReg(p_reg)``. To
-insert a store instruction, use ``TargetInstrInfo::storeRegToStackSlot(...)``,
-and to insert a load instruction, use ``TargetInstrInfo::loadRegFromStackSlot``.
-
-The indirect mapping shields the application developer from the complexities of
-inserting load and store instructions. In order to map a virtual register to a
-physical one, use ``VirtRegMap::assignVirt2Phys(vreg, preg)``. In order to map
-a certain virtual register to memory, use
-``VirtRegMap::assignVirt2StackSlot(vreg)``. This method will return the stack
-slot where ``vreg``'s value will be located. If it is necessary to map another
-virtual register to the same stack slot, use
-``VirtRegMap::assignVirt2StackSlot(vreg, stack_location)``. One important point
-to consider when using the indirect mapping, is that even if a virtual register
-is mapped to memory, it still needs to be mapped to a physical register. This
-physical register is the location where the virtual register is supposed to be
-found before being stored or after being reloaded.
-
-If the indirect strategy is used, after all the virtual registers have been
-mapped to physical registers or stack slots, it is necessary to use a spiller
-object to place load and store instructions in the code. Every virtual that has
-been mapped to a stack slot will be stored to memory after being defined and will
-be loaded before being used. The implementation of the spiller tries to recycle
-load/store instructions, avoiding unnecessary instructions. For an example of
-how to invoke the spiller, see ``RegAllocLinearScan::runOnMachineFunction`` in
-``lib/CodeGen/RegAllocLinearScan.cpp``.
-
-Handling two address instructions
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-With very rare exceptions (e.g., function calls), the LLVM machine code
-instructions are three address instructions. That is, each instruction is
-expected to define at most one register, and to use at most two registers.
-However, some architectures use two address instructions. In this case, the
-defined register is also one of the used registers. For instance, an instruction
-such as ``ADD %EAX, %EBX``, in X86 is actually equivalent to ``%EAX = %EAX +
-%EBX``.
-
-In order to produce correct code, LLVM must convert three address instructions
-that represent two address instructions into true two address instructions. LLVM
-provides the pass ``TwoAddressInstructionPass`` for this specific purpose. It
-must be run before register allocation takes place. After its execution, the
-resulting code may no longer be in SSA form. This happens, for instance, in
-situations where an instruction such as ``%a = ADD %b %c`` is converted to two
-instructions such as:
-
-::
-
- %a = MOVE %b
- %a = ADD %a %c
-
-Notice that, internally, the second instruction is represented as ``ADD
-%a[def/use] %c``. I.e., the register operand ``%a`` is both used and defined by
-the instruction.
-
-The SSA deconstruction phase
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-An important transformation that happens during register allocation is called
-the *SSA Deconstruction Phase*. The SSA form simplifies many analyses that are
-performed on the control flow graph of programs. However, traditional
-instruction sets do not implement PHI instructions. Thus, in order to generate
-executable code, compilers must replace PHI instructions with other instructions
-that preserve their semantics.
-
-There are many ways in which PHI instructions can safely be removed from the
-target code. The most traditional PHI deconstruction algorithm replaces PHI
-instructions with copy instructions. That is the strategy adopted by LLVM. The
-SSA deconstruction algorithm is implemented in
-``lib/CodeGen/PHIElimination.cpp``. In order to invoke this pass, the identifier
-``PHIEliminationID`` must be marked as required in the code of the register
-allocator.
-
-Instruction folding
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-*Instruction folding* is an optimization performed during register allocation
-that removes unnecessary copy instructions. For instance, a sequence of
-instructions such as:
-
-::
-
- %EBX = LOAD %mem_address
- %EAX = COPY %EBX
-
-can be safely substituted by the single instruction:
-
-::
-
- %EAX = LOAD %mem_address
-
-Instructions can be folded with the
-``TargetRegisterInfo::foldMemoryOperand(...)`` method. Care must be taken when
-folding instructions; a folded instruction can be quite different from the
-original instruction. See ``LiveIntervals::addIntervalsForSpills`` in
-``lib/CodeGen/LiveIntervalAnalysis.cpp`` for an example of its use.
-
-Built in register allocators
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The LLVM infrastructure provides the application developer with three different
-register allocators:
-
-* *Fast* --- This register allocator is the default for debug builds. It
- allocates registers on a basic block level, attempting to keep values in
- registers and reusing registers as appropriate.
-
-* *Basic* --- This is an incremental approach to register allocation. Live
- ranges are assigned to registers one at a time in an order that is driven by
- heuristics. Since code can be rewritten on-the-fly during allocation, this
- framework allows interesting allocators to be developed as extensions. It is
- not itself a production register allocator but is a potentially useful
- stand-alone mode for triaging bugs and as a performance baseline.
-
-* *Greedy* --- *The default allocator*. This is a highly tuned implementation of
- the *Basic* allocator that incorporates global live range splitting. This
- allocator works hard to minimize the cost of spill code.
-
-* *PBQP* --- A Partitioned Boolean Quadratic Programming (PBQP) based register
- allocator. This allocator works by constructing a PBQP problem representing
- the register allocation problem under consideration, solving this using a PBQP
- solver, and mapping the solution back to a register assignment.
-
-The type of register allocator used in ``llc`` can be chosen with the command
-line option ``-regalloc=...``:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
- $ llc -regalloc=linearscan file.bc -o ln.s
- $ llc -regalloc=fast file.bc -o fa.s
- $ llc -regalloc=pbqp file.bc -o pbqp.s
-

-
-Prolog/Epilog Code Insertion
-----------------------------
-
-Compact Unwind
-
-Throwing an exception requires *unwinding* out of a function. The information on
-how to unwind a given function is traditionally expressed in DWARF unwind
-(a.k.a. frame) info. But that format was originally developed for debuggers to
-backtrace, and each Frame Description Entry (FDE) requires ~20-30 bytes per
-function. There is also the cost of mapping from an address in a function to the
-corresponding FDE at runtime. An alternative unwind encoding is called *compact
-unwind* and requires just 4-bytes per function.
-
-The compact unwind encoding is a 32-bit value, which is encoded in an
-architecture-specific way. It specifies which registers to restore and from
-where, and how to unwind out of the function. When the linker creates a final
-linked image, it will create a ``__TEXT,__unwind_info`` section. This section is
-a small and fast way for the runtime to access unwind info for any given
-function. If we emit compact unwind info for the function, that compact unwind
-info will be encoded in the ``__TEXT,__unwind_info`` section. If we emit DWARF
-unwind info, the ``__TEXT,__unwind_info`` section will contain the offset of the
-FDE in the ``__TEXT,__eh_frame`` section in the final linked image.
-
-For X86, there are three modes for the compact unwind encoding:
-
-*Function with a Frame Pointer (``EBP`` or ``RBP``)*
- ``EBP/RBP``-based frame, where ``EBP/RBP`` is pushed onto the stack
- immediately after the return address, then ``ESP/RSP`` is moved to
- ``EBP/RBP``. Thus to unwind, ``ESP/RSP`` is restored with the current
- ``EBP/RBP`` value, then ``EBP/RBP`` is restored by popping the stack, and the
- return is done by popping the stack once more into the PC. All non-volatile
- registers that need to be restored must have been saved in a small range on
- the stack that starts ``EBP-4`` to ``EBP-1020`` (``RBP-8`` to
- ``RBP-1020``). The offset (divided by 4 in 32-bit mode and 8 in 64-bit mode)
- is encoded in bits 16-23 (mask: ``0x00FF0000``). The registers saved are
- encoded in bits 0-14 (mask: ``0x00007FFF``) as five 3-bit entries from the
- following table:
-
- ============== ============= ===============
- Compact Number i386 Register x86-64 Register
- ============== ============= ===============
- 1 ``EBX`` ``RBX``
- 2 ``ECX`` ``R12``
- 3 ``EDX`` ``R13``
- 4 ``EDI`` ``R14``
- 5 ``ESI`` ``R15``
- 6 ``EBP`` ``RBP``
- ============== ============= ===============
-
-*Frameless with a Small Constant Stack Size (``EBP`` or ``RBP`` is not used as a frame pointer)*
- To return, a constant (encoded in the compact unwind encoding) is added to the
- ``ESP/RSP``. Then the return is done by popping the stack into the PC. All
- non-volatile registers that need to be restored must have been saved on the
- stack immediately after the return address. The stack size (divided by 4 in
- 32-bit mode and 8 in 64-bit mode) is encoded in bits 16-23 (mask:
- ``0x00FF0000``). There is a maximum stack size of 1024 bytes in 32-bit mode
- and 2048 in 64-bit mode. The number of registers saved is encoded in bits 9-12
- (mask: ``0x00001C00``). Bits 0-9 (mask: ``0x000003FF``) contain which
- registers were saved and their order. (See the
- ``encodeCompactUnwindRegistersWithoutFrame()`` function in
- ``lib/Target/X86FrameLowering.cpp`` for the encoding algorithm.)
-
-*Frameless with a Large Constant Stack Size (``EBP`` or ``RBP`` is not used as a frame pointer)*
- This case is like the "Frameless with a Small Constant Stack Size" case, but
- the stack size is too large to encode in the compact unwind encoding. Instead
- it requires that the function contains "``subl $nnnnnn, %esp``" in its
- prolog. The compact encoding contains the offset to the ``$nnnnnn`` value in
- the function in bits 9-12 (mask: ``0x00001C00``).

--------------------------------

-
-.. _Code Emission:
-
-Code Emission
--------------
-
-The code emission step of code generation is responsible for lowering from the
-code generator abstractions (like `MachineFunction`_, `MachineInstr`_, etc) down
-to the abstractions used by the MC layer (`MCInst`_, `MCStreamer`_, etc). This
-is done with a combination of several different classes: the (misnamed)
-target-independent AsmPrinter class, target-specific subclasses of AsmPrinter
-(such as SparcAsmPrinter), and the TargetLoweringObjectFile class.
-
-Since the MC layer works at the level of abstraction of object files, it doesn't
-have a notion of functions, global variables etc. Instead, it thinks about
-labels, directives, and instructions. A key class used at this time is the
-MCStreamer class. This is an abstract API that is implemented in different ways
-(e.g. to output a .s file, output an ELF .o file, etc) that is effectively an
-"assembler API". MCStreamer has one method per directive, such as EmitLabel,
-EmitSymbolAttribute, SwitchSection, etc, which directly correspond to assembly
-level directives.
-
-If you are interested in implementing a code generator for a target, there are
-three important things that you have to implement for your target:
-
-#. First, you need a subclass of AsmPrinter for your target. This class
- implements the general lowering process converting MachineFunction's into MC
- label constructs. The AsmPrinter base class provides a number of useful
- methods and routines, and also allows you to override the lowering process in
- some important ways. You should get much of the lowering for free if you are
- implementing an ELF, COFF, or MachO target, because the
- TargetLoweringObjectFile class implements much of the common logic.
-
-#. Second, you need to implement an instruction printer for your target. The
- instruction printer takes an `MCInst`_ and renders it to a raw_ostream as
- text. Most of this is automatically generated from the .td file (when you
- specify something like "``add $dst, $src1, $src2``" in the instructions), but
- you need to implement routines to print operands.
-
-#. Third, you need to implement code that lowers a `MachineInstr`_ to an MCInst,
- usually implemented in "<target>MCInstLower.cpp". This lowering process is
- often target specific, and is responsible for turning jump table entries,
- constant pool indices, global variable addresses, etc into MCLabels as
- appropriate. This translation layer is also responsible for expanding pseudo
- ops used by the code generator into the actual machine instructions they
- correspond to. The MCInsts that are generated by this are fed into the
- instruction printer or the encoder.
-
-Finally, at your choosing, you can also implement a subclass of MCCodeEmitter
-which lowers MCInst's into machine code bytes and relocations. This is
-important if you want to support direct .o file emission, or would like to
-implement an assembler for your target.
-
-Emitting function stack size information
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-A section containing metadata on function stack sizes will be emitted when
-``TargetLoweringObjectFile::StackSizesSection`` is not null, and
-``TargetOptions::EmitStackSizeSection`` is set (-stack-size-section). The
-section will contain an array of pairs of function symbol references (8 byte)
-and stack sizes (unsigned LEB128). The stack size values only include the space
-allocated in the function prologue. Functions with dynamic stack allocations are
-not included.
-
-VLIW Packetizer
----------------
-
-In a Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) architecture, the compiler is responsible
-for mapping instructions to functional-units available on the architecture. To
-that end, the compiler creates groups of instructions called *packets* or
-*bundles*. The VLIW packetizer in LLVM is a target-independent mechanism to
-enable the packetization of machine instructions.
-
-Mapping from instructions to functional units
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Instructions in a VLIW target can typically be mapped to multiple functional
-units. During the process of packetizing, the compiler must be able to reason
-about whether an instruction can be added to a packet. This decision can be
-complex since the compiler has to examine all possible mappings of instructions
-to functional units. Therefore to alleviate compilation-time complexity, the
-VLIW packetizer parses the instruction classes of a target and generates tables
-at compiler build time. These tables can then be queried by the provided
-machine-independent API to determine if an instruction can be accommodated in a
-packet.
-
-How the packetization tables are generated and used
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The packetizer reads instruction classes from a target's itineraries and creates
-a deterministic finite automaton (DFA) to represent the state of a packet. A DFA
-consists of three major elements: inputs, states, and transitions. The set of
-inputs for the generated DFA represents the instruction being added to a
-packet. The states represent the possible consumption of functional units by
-instructions in a packet. In the DFA, transitions from one state to another
-occur on the addition of an instruction to an existing packet. If there is a
-legal mapping of functional units to instructions, then the DFA contains a
-corresponding transition. The absence of a transition indicates that a legal
-mapping does not exist and that the instruction cannot be added to the packet.
-
-To generate tables for a VLIW target, add *Target*\ GenDFAPacketizer.inc as a
-target to the Makefile in the target directory. The exported API provides three
-functions: ``DFAPacketizer::clearResources()``,
-``DFAPacketizer::reserveResources(MachineInstr *MI)``, and
-``DFAPacketizer::canReserveResources(MachineInstr *MI)``. These functions allow
-a target packetizer to add an instruction to an existing packet and to check
-whether an instruction can be added to a packet. See
-``llvm/CodeGen/DFAPacketizer.h`` for more information.
-
-Implementing a Native Assembler
-===============================
-
-Though you're probably reading this because you want to write or maintain a
-compiler backend, LLVM also fully supports building a native assembler.
-We've tried hard to automate the generation of the assembler from the .td files
-(in particular the instruction syntax and encodings), which means that a large
-part of the manual and repetitive data entry can be factored and shared with the
-compiler.
-
-Instruction Parsing
--------------------
-
-.. note::
-
- To Be Written
-
-
-Instruction Alias Processing
-----------------------------
-
-Once the instruction is parsed, it enters the MatchInstructionImpl function.
-The MatchInstructionImpl function performs alias processing and then does actual
-matching.
-
-Alias processing is the phase that canonicalizes different lexical forms of the
-same instructions down to one representation. There are several different kinds
-of alias that are possible to implement and they are listed below in the order
-that they are processed (which is in order from simplest/weakest to most
-complex/powerful). Generally you want to use the first alias mechanism that
-meets the needs of your instruction, because it will allow a more concise
-description.
-
-Mnemonic Aliases
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The first phase of alias processing is simple instruction mnemonic remapping for
-classes of instructions which are allowed with two different mnemonics. This
-phase is a simple and unconditionally remapping from one input mnemonic to one
-output mnemonic. It isn't possible for this form of alias to look at the
-operands at all, so the remapping must apply for all forms of a given mnemonic.
-Mnemonic aliases are defined simply, for example X86 has:
-
-::
-
- def : MnemonicAlias<"cbw", "cbtw">;
- def : MnemonicAlias<"smovq", "movsq">;
- def : MnemonicAlias<"fldcww", "fldcw">;
- def : MnemonicAlias<"fucompi", "fucomip">;
- def : MnemonicAlias<"ud2a", "ud2">;
-
-... and many others. With a MnemonicAlias definition, the mnemonic is remapped
-simply and directly. Though MnemonicAlias's can't look at any aspect of the
-instruction (such as the operands) they can depend on global modes (the same
-ones supported by the matcher), through a Requires clause:
-
-::
-
- def : MnemonicAlias<"pushf", "pushfq">, Requires<[In64BitMode]>;
- def : MnemonicAlias<"pushf", "pushfl">, Requires<[In32BitMode]>;
-
-In this example, the mnemonic gets mapped into a different one depending on
-the current instruction set.
-
-Instruction Aliases
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The most general phase of alias processing occurs while matching is happening:
-it provides new forms for the matcher to match along with a specific instruction
-to generate. An instruction alias has two parts: the string to match and the
-instruction to generate. For example:
-
-::
-
- def : InstAlias<"movsx $src, $dst", (MOVSX16rr8W GR16:$dst, GR8 :$src)>;
- def : InstAlias<"movsx $src, $dst", (MOVSX16rm8W GR16:$dst, i8mem:$src)>;
- def : InstAlias<"movsx $src, $dst", (MOVSX32rr8 GR32:$dst, GR8 :$src)>;
- def : InstAlias<"movsx $src, $dst", (MOVSX32rr16 GR32:$dst, GR16 :$src)>;
- def : InstAlias<"movsx $src, $dst", (MOVSX64rr8 GR64:$dst, GR8 :$src)>;
- def : InstAlias<"movsx $src, $dst", (MOVSX64rr16 GR64:$dst, GR16 :$src)>;
- def : InstAlias<"movsx $src, $dst", (MOVSX64rr32 GR64:$dst, GR32 :$src)>;
-
-This shows a powerful example of the instruction aliases, matching the same
-mnemonic in multiple different ways depending on what operands are present in
-the assembly. The result of instruction aliases can include operands in a
-different order than the destination instruction, and can use an input multiple
-times, for example:
-
-::
-
- def : InstAlias<"clrb $reg", (XOR8rr GR8 :$reg, GR8 :$reg)>;
- def : InstAlias<"clrw $reg", (XOR16rr GR16:$reg, GR16:$reg)>;
- def : InstAlias<"clrl $reg", (XOR32rr GR32:$reg, GR32:$reg)>;
- def : InstAlias<"clrq $reg", (XOR64rr GR64:$reg, GR64:$reg)>;
-
-This example also shows that tied operands are only listed once. In the X86
-backend, XOR8rr has two input GR8's and one output GR8 (where an input is tied
-to the output). InstAliases take a flattened operand list without duplicates
-for tied operands. The result of an instruction alias can also use immediates
-and fixed physical registers which are added as simple immediate operands in the
-result, for example:
-
-::
-
- // Fixed Immediate operand.
- def : InstAlias<"aad", (AAD8i8 10)>;
-
- // Fixed register operand.
- def : InstAlias<"fcomi", (COM_FIr ST1)>;
-
- // Simple alias.
- def : InstAlias<"fcomi $reg", (COM_FIr RST:$reg)>;
-
-Instruction aliases can also have a Requires clause to make them subtarget
-specific.
-
-If the back-end supports it, the instruction printer can automatically emit the
-alias rather than what's being aliased. It typically leads to better, more
-readable code. If it's better to print out what's being aliased, then pass a '0'
-as the third parameter to the InstAlias definition.

-.. _feat_reliable:
-
-Is Generally Reliable
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-This box indicates whether the target is considered to be production quality.
-This indicates that the target has been used as a static compiler to compile
-large amounts of code by a variety of different people and is in continuous use.
-
-.. _feat_asmparser:
-
-Assembly Parser
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-This box indicates whether the target supports parsing target specific .s files
-by implementing the MCAsmParser interface. This is required for llvm-mc to be
-able to act as a native assembler and is required for inline assembly support in
-the native .o file writer.
-
-.. _feat_disassembler:
-
-Disassembler
-^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-This box indicates whether the target supports the MCDisassembler API for
-disassembling machine opcode bytes into MCInst's.
-
-.. _feat_inlineasm:
-
-Inline Asm
-^^^^^^^^^^
-
-This box indicates whether the target supports most popular inline assembly
-constraints and modifiers.
-
-.. _feat_jit:
-
-JIT Support
-^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-This box indicates whether the target supports the JIT compiler through the
-ExecutionEngine interface.
-
-.. _feat_jit_arm:
-
-The ARM backend has basic support for integer code in ARM codegen mode, but
-lacks NEON and full Thumb support.
-
-.. _feat_objectwrite:
-
-.o File Writing
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-This box indicates whether the target supports writing .o files (e.g. MachO,
-ELF, and/or COFF) files directly from the target. Note that the target also
-must include an assembly parser and general inline assembly support for full
-inline assembly support in the .o writer.
-
-Targets that don't support this feature can obviously still write out .o files,
-they just rely on having an external assembler to translate from a .s file to a
-.o file (as is the case for many C compilers).
-
-.. _feat_tailcall:
-
-Tail Calls
-^^^^^^^^^^
-
-This box indicates whether the target supports guaranteed tail calls. These are
-calls marked "`tail <LangRef.html#i_call>`_" and use the fastcc calling
-convention. Please see the `tail call section`_ for more details.
-
-.. _feat_segstacks:
-
-Segmented Stacks
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-This box indicates whether the target supports segmented stacks. This replaces
-the traditional large C stack with many linked segments. It is compatible with
-the `gcc implementation <http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/SplitStacks>`_ used by the Go
-front end.
-
-.. _feat_segstacks_x86:
-
-Basic support exists on the X86 backend. Currently vararg doesn't work and the
-object files are not marked the way the gold linker expects, but simple Go
-programs can be built by dragonegg.
-
-.. _tail call section:
-
-Tail call optimization
-----------------------
-
-Tail call optimization, callee reusing the stack of the caller, is currently
-supported on x86/x86-64 and PowerPC. It is performed if:
-
-* Caller and callee have the calling convention ``fastcc``, ``cc 10`` (GHC
- calling convention) or ``cc 11`` (HiPE calling convention).
-
-* The call is a tail call - in tail position (ret immediately follows call and
- ret uses value of call or is void).
-
-* Option ``-tailcallopt`` is enabled.
-
-* Platform-specific constraints are met.
-
-x86/x86-64 constraints:
-
-* No variable argument lists are used.
-
-* On x86-64 when generating GOT/PIC code only module-local calls (visibility =
- hidden or protected) are supported.
-
-PowerPC constraints:
-
-* No variable argument lists are used.
-
-* No byval parameters are used.
-
-* On ppc32/64 GOT/PIC only module-local calls (visibility = hidden or protected)
- are supported.
-
-Example:
-
-Call as ``llc -tailcallopt test.ll``.
-
-.. code-block:: llvm
-
- declare fastcc i32 @tailcallee(i32 inreg %a1, i32 inreg %a2, i32 %a3, i32 %a4)
-
- define fastcc i32 @tailcaller(i32 %in1, i32 %in2) {
- %l1 = add i32 %in1, %in2
- %tmp = tail call fastcc i32 @tailcallee(i32 %in1 inreg, i32 %in2 inreg, i32 %in1, i32 %l1)
- ret i32 %tmp
- }
-
-Implications of ``-tailcallopt``:
-
-To support tail call optimization in situations where the callee has more
-arguments than the caller a 'callee pops arguments' convention is used. This
-currently causes each ``fastcc`` call that is not tail call optimized (because
-one or more of above constraints are not met) to be followed by a readjustment
-of the stack. So performance might be worse in such cases.
-
-Sibling call optimization
--------------------------
-
-Sibling call optimization is a restricted form of tail call optimization.
-Unlike tail call optimization described in the previous section, it can be
-performed automatically on any tail calls when ``-tailcallopt`` option is not
-specified.
-
-Sibling call optimization is currently performed on x86/x86-64 when the
-following constraints are met:
-
-* Caller and callee have the same calling convention. It can be either ``c`` or
- ``fastcc``.
-
-* The call is a tail call - in tail position (ret immediately follows call and
- ret uses value of call or is void).
-
-* Caller and callee have matching return type or the callee result is not used.
-
-* If any of the callee arguments are being passed in stack, they must be
- available in caller's own incoming argument stack and the frame offsets must
- be the same.
-
-Example:
-
-.. code-block:: llvm
-
- declare i32 @bar(i32, i32)
-
- define i32 @foo(i32 %a, i32 %b, i32 %c) {
- entry:
- %0 = tail call i32 @bar(i32 %a, i32 %b)
- ret i32 %0
- }
-
-The X86 backend
----------------
-
-The X86 code generator lives in the ``lib/Target/X86`` directory. This code
-generator is capable of targeting a variety of x86-32 and x86-64 processors, and
-includes support for ISA extensions such as MMX and SSE.
-
-X86 Target Triples supported
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The following are the known target triples that are supported by the X86
-backend. This is not an exhaustive list, and it would be useful to add those
-that people test.
-
-* **i686-pc-linux-gnu** --- Linux
-
-* **i386-unknown-freebsd5.3** --- FreeBSD 5.3
-
-* **i686-pc-cygwin** --- Cygwin on Win32
-
-* **i686-pc-mingw32** --- MingW on Win32
-
-* **i386-pc-mingw32msvc** --- MingW crosscompiler on Linux
-
-* **i686-apple-darwin*** --- Apple Darwin on X86
-
-* **x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu** --- Linux
-
-X86 Calling Conventions supported
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The following target-specific calling conventions are known to backend:
-
-* **x86_StdCall** --- stdcall calling convention seen on Microsoft Windows
- platform (CC ID = 64).
-
-* **x86_FastCall** --- fastcall calling convention seen on Microsoft Windows
- platform (CC ID = 65).
-
-* **x86_ThisCall** --- Similar to X86_StdCall. Passes first argument in ECX,
- others via stack. Callee is responsible for stack cleaning. This convention is
- used by MSVC by default for methods in its ABI (CC ID = 70).
-
-.. _X86 addressing mode:
-
-Representing X86 addressing modes in MachineInstrs
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The x86 has a very flexible way of accessing memory. It is capable of forming
-memory addresses of the following expression directly in integer instructions
-(which use ModR/M addressing):
-
-::
-
- SegmentReg: Base + [1,2,4,8] * IndexReg + Disp32
-
-In order to represent this, LLVM tracks no less than 5 operands for each memory
-operand of this form. This means that the "load" form of '``mov``' has the
-following ``MachineOperand``\s in this order:
-
-::
-
- Index: 0 | 1 2 3 4 5
- Meaning: DestReg, | BaseReg, Scale, IndexReg, Displacement Segment
- OperandTy: VirtReg, | VirtReg, UnsImm, VirtReg, SignExtImm PhysReg
-
-Stores, and all other instructions, treat the four memory operands in the same
-way and in the same order. If the segment register is unspecified (regno = 0),
-then no segment override is generated. "Lea" operations do not have a segment
-register specified, so they only have 4 operands for their memory reference.
-
-X86 address spaces supported
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-x86 has a feature which provides the ability to perform loads and stores to
-different address spaces via the x86 segment registers. A segment override
-prefix byte on an instruction causes the instruction's memory access to go to
-the specified segment. LLVM address space 0 is the default address space, which
-includes the stack, and any unqualified memory accesses in a program. Address
-spaces 1-255 are currently reserved for user-defined code. The GS-segment is
-represented by address space 256, the FS-segment is represented by address space
-257, and the SS-segment is represented by address space 258. Other x86 segments
-have yet to be allocated address space numbers.
-
-While these address spaces may seem similar to TLS via the ``thread_local``
-keyword, and often use the same underlying hardware, there are some fundamental
-differences.
-
-The ``thread_local`` keyword applies to global variables and specifies that they
-are to be allocated in thread-local memory. There are no type qualifiers
-involved, and these variables can be pointed to with normal pointers and
-accessed with normal loads and stores. The ``thread_local`` keyword is
-target-independent at the LLVM IR level (though LLVM doesn't yet have
-implementations of it for some configurations)
-
-Special address spaces, in contrast, apply to static types. Every load and store
-has a particular address space in its address operand type, and this is what
-determines which address space is accessed. LLVM ignores these special address
-space qualifiers on global variables, and does not provide a way to directly
-allocate storage in them. At the LLVM IR level, the behavior of these special
-address spaces depends in part on the underlying OS or runtime environment, and
-they are specific to x86 (and LLVM doesn't yet handle them correctly in some
-cases).
-
-Some operating systems and runtime environments use (or may in the future use)
-the FS/GS-segment registers for various low-level purposes, so care should be
-taken when considering them.
-
-Instruction naming
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-An instruction name consists of the base name, a default operand size, and a a
-character per operand with an optional special size. For example:
-
-::
-
- ADD8rr -> add, 8-bit register, 8-bit register
- IMUL16rmi -> imul, 16-bit register, 16-bit memory, 16-bit immediate
- IMUL16rmi8 -> imul, 16-bit register, 16-bit memory, 8-bit immediate
- MOVSX32rm16 -> movsx, 32-bit register, 16-bit memory
-
-The PowerPC backend
--------------------
-
-The PowerPC code generator lives in the lib/Target/PowerPC directory. The code
-generation is retargetable to several variations or *subtargets* of the PowerPC
-ISA; including ppc32, ppc64 and altivec.
-
-LLVM PowerPC ABI
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-LLVM follows the AIX PowerPC ABI, with two deviations. LLVM uses a PC relative
-(PIC) or static addressing for accessing global values, so no TOC (r2) is
-used. Second, r31 is used as a frame pointer to allow dynamic growth of a stack
-frame. LLVM takes advantage of having no TOC to provide space to save the frame
-pointer in the PowerPC linkage area of the caller frame. Other details of
-PowerPC ABI can be found at `PowerPC ABI
-<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/LowLevelABI/Articles/32bitPowerPC.html>`_\
-. Note: This link describes the 32 bit ABI. The 64 bit ABI is similar except
-space for GPRs are 8 bytes wide (not 4) and r13 is reserved for system use.
-
-Frame Layout
-^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The size of a PowerPC frame is usually fixed for the duration of a function's
-invocation. Since the frame is fixed size, all references into the frame can be
-accessed via fixed offsets from the stack pointer. The exception to this is
-when dynamic alloca or variable sized arrays are present, then a base pointer
-(r31) is used as a proxy for the stack pointer and stack pointer is free to grow
-or shrink. A base pointer is also used if llvm-gcc is not passed the
--fomit-frame-pointer flag. The stack pointer is always aligned to 16 bytes, so
-that space allocated for altivec vectors will be properly aligned.
-
-An invocation frame is laid out as follows (low memory at top):
-

-:raw-html:`</tr>`
-:raw-html:`</table>`
-
-The *linkage* area is used by a callee to save special registers prior to
-allocating its own frame. Only three entries are relevant to LLVM. The first
-entry is the previous stack pointer (sp), aka link. This allows probing tools
-like gdb or exception handlers to quickly scan the frames in the stack. A
-function epilog can also use the link to pop the frame from the stack. The
-third entry in the linkage area is used to save the return address from the lr
-register. Finally, as mentioned above, the last entry is used to save the
-previous frame pointer (r31.) The entries in the linkage area are the size of a
-GPR, thus the linkage area is 24 bytes long in 32 bit mode and 48 bytes in 64
-bit mode.

-
-The *parameter area* is used to store arguments being passed to a callee
-function. Following the PowerPC ABI, the first few arguments are actually
-passed in registers, with the space in the parameter area unused. However, if
-there are not enough registers or the callee is a thunk or vararg function,
-these register arguments can be spilled into the parameter area. Thus, the
-parameter area must be large enough to store all the parameters for the largest
-call sequence made by the caller. The size must also be minimally large enough
-to spill registers r3-r10. This allows callees blind to the call signature,
-such as thunks and vararg functions, enough space to cache the argument
-registers. Therefore, the parameter area is minimally 32 bytes (64 bytes in 64
-bit mode.) Also note that since the parameter area is a fixed offset from the
-top of the frame, that a callee can access its spilt arguments using fixed
-offsets from the stack pointer (or base pointer.)
-
-Combining the information about the linkage, parameter areas and alignment. A
-stack frame is minimally 64 bytes in 32 bit mode and 128 bytes in 64 bit mode.
-
-The *dynamic area* starts out as size zero. If a function uses dynamic alloca
-then space is added to the stack, the linkage and parameter areas are shifted to
-top of stack, and the new space is available immediately below the linkage and
-parameter areas. The cost of shifting the linkage and parameter areas is minor
-since only the link value needs to be copied. The link value can be easily
-fetched by adding the original frame size to the base pointer. Note that
-allocations in the dynamic space need to observe 16 byte alignment.
-
-The *locals area* is where the llvm compiler reserves space for local variables.
-
-The *saved registers area* is where the llvm compiler spills callee saved
-registers on entry to the callee.
-
-Prolog/Epilog
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The llvm prolog and epilog are the same as described in the PowerPC ABI, with
-the following exceptions. Callee saved registers are spilled after the frame is
-created. This allows the llvm epilog/prolog support to be common with other
-targets. The base pointer callee saved register r31 is saved in the TOC slot of
-linkage area. This simplifies allocation of space for the base pointer and
-makes it convenient to locate programmatically and during debugging.
-
-Dynamic Allocation
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

-The NVPTX backend
------------------
-
-The NVPTX code generator under lib/Target/NVPTX is an open-source version of
-the NVIDIA NVPTX code generator for LLVM. It is contributed by NVIDIA and is
-a port of the code generator used in the CUDA compiler (nvcc). It targets the
-PTX 3.0/3.1 ISA and can target any compute capability greater than or equal to
-2.0 (Fermi).
-
-This target is of production quality and should be completely compatible with
-the official NVIDIA toolchain.

-Extended BPF (or eBPF) is similar to the original ("classic") BPF (cBPF) used
-to filter network packets. The
-`bpf() system call <http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/bpf.2.html>`_
-performs a range of operations related to eBPF. For both cBPF and eBPF
-programs, the Linux kernel statically analyzes the programs before loading
-them, in order to ensure that they cannot harm the running system. eBPF is
-a 64-bit RISC instruction set designed for one to one mapping to 64-bit CPUs.
-Opcodes are 8-bit encoded, and 87 instructions are defined. There are 10
-registers, grouped by function as outlined below.
-
-::
-
- R0 return value from in-kernel functions; exit value for eBPF program
- R1 - R5 function call arguments to in-kernel functions
- R6 - R9 callee-saved registers preserved by in-kernel functions
- R10 stack frame pointer (read only)
-
-Instruction encoding (arithmetic and jump)
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-eBPF is reusing most of the opcode encoding from classic to simplify conversion
-of classic BPF to eBPF. For arithmetic and jump instructions the 8-bit 'code'
-field is divided into three parts:
-
-::
-
- +----------------+--------+--------------------+
- | 4 bits | 1 bit | 3 bits |
- | operation code | source | instruction class |
- +----------------+--------+--------------------+
- (MSB) (LSB)
-
-Three LSB bits store instruction class which is one of:
-
-::
-
- BPF_LD 0x0
- BPF_LDX 0x1
- BPF_ST 0x2
- BPF_STX 0x3
- BPF_ALU 0x4
- BPF_JMP 0x5
- (unused) 0x6
- BPF_ALU64 0x7
-
-When BPF_CLASS(code) == BPF_ALU or BPF_ALU64 or BPF_JMP,
-4th bit encodes source operand
-
-::
-
- BPF_X 0x0 use src_reg register as source operand
- BPF_K 0x1 use 32 bit immediate as source operand
-
-and four MSB bits store operation code
-
-::
-
- BPF_ADD 0x0 add
- BPF_SUB 0x1 subtract
- BPF_MUL 0x2 multiply
- BPF_DIV 0x3 divide
- BPF_OR 0x4 bitwise logical OR
- BPF_AND 0x5 bitwise logical AND
- BPF_LSH 0x6 left shift
- BPF_RSH 0x7 right shift (zero extended)
- BPF_NEG 0x8 arithmetic negation
- BPF_MOD 0x9 modulo
- BPF_XOR 0xa bitwise logical XOR
- BPF_MOV 0xb move register to register
- BPF_ARSH 0xc right shift (sign extended)
- BPF_END 0xd endianness conversion
-
-If BPF_CLASS(code) == BPF_JMP, BPF_OP(code) is one of
-
-::
-
- BPF_JA 0x0 unconditional jump
- BPF_JEQ 0x1 jump ==
- BPF_JGT 0x2 jump >
- BPF_JGE 0x3 jump >=
- BPF_JSET 0x4 jump if (DST & SRC)
- BPF_JNE 0x5 jump !=
- BPF_JSGT 0x6 jump signed >
- BPF_JSGE 0x7 jump signed >=
- BPF_CALL 0x8 function call
- BPF_EXIT 0x9 function return
-
-Instruction encoding (load, store)
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-For load and store instructions the 8-bit 'code' field is divided as:
-
-::
-
- +--------+--------+-------------------+
- | 3 bits | 2 bits | 3 bits |
- | mode | size | instruction class |
- +--------+--------+-------------------+
- (MSB) (LSB)
-
-Size modifier is one of
-
-::
-
- BPF_W 0x0 word
- BPF_H 0x1 half word
- BPF_B 0x2 byte
- BPF_DW 0x3 double word
-
-Mode modifier is one of
-
-::
-
- BPF_IMM 0x0 immediate
- BPF_ABS 0x1 used to access packet data
- BPF_IND 0x2 used to access packet data
- BPF_MEM 0x3 memory
- (reserved) 0x4
- (reserved) 0x5
- BPF_XADD 0x6 exclusive add
-
-
-Packet data access (BPF_ABS, BPF_IND)
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Two non-generic instructions: (BPF_ABS | <size> | BPF_LD) and
-(BPF_IND | <size> | BPF_LD) which are used to access packet data.
-Register R6 is an implicit input that must contain pointer to sk_buff.
-Register R0 is an implicit output which contains the data fetched
-from the packet. Registers R1-R5 are scratch registers and must not
-be used to store the data across BPF_ABS | BPF_LD or BPF_IND | BPF_LD
-instructions. These instructions have implicit program exit condition
-as well. When eBPF program is trying to access the data beyond
-the packet boundary, the interpreter will abort the execution of the program.
-
-BPF_IND | BPF_W | BPF_LD is equivalent to:
- R0 = ntohl(\*(u32 \*) (((struct sk_buff \*) R6)->data + src_reg + imm32))
-
-eBPF maps
-^^^^^^^^^
-
-eBPF maps are provided for sharing data between kernel and user-space.
-Currently implemented types are hash and array, with potential extension to
-support bloom filters, radix trees, etc. A map is defined by its type,
-maximum number of elements, key size and value size in bytes. eBPF syscall
-supports create, update, find and delete functions on maps.
-
-Function calls
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Function call arguments are passed using up to five registers (R1 - R5).
-The return value is passed in a dedicated register (R0). Four additional
-registers (R6 - R9) are callee-saved, and the values in these registers
-are preserved within kernel functions. R0 - R5 are scratch registers within
-kernel functions, and eBPF programs must therefor store/restore values in
-these registers if needed across function calls. The stack can be accessed
-using the read-only frame pointer R10. eBPF registers map 1:1 to hardware
-registers on x86_64 and other 64-bit architectures. For example, x86_64
-in-kernel JIT maps them as
-
-::
-
- R0 - rax
- R1 - rdi
- R2 - rsi
- R3 - rdx
- R4 - rcx
- R5 - r8
- R6 - rbx
- R7 - r13
- R8 - r14
- R9 - r15
- R10 - rbp
-
-since x86_64 ABI mandates rdi, rsi, rdx, rcx, r8, r9 for argument passing
-and rbx, r12 - r15 are callee saved.
-
-Program start
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-An eBPF program receives a single argument and contains
-a single eBPF main routine; the program does not contain eBPF functions.
-Function calls are limited to a predefined set of kernel functions. The size
-of a program is limited to 4K instructions: this ensures fast termination and
-a limited number of kernel function calls. Prior to running an eBPF program,
-a verifier performs static analysis to prevent loops in the code and
-to ensure valid register usage and operand types.
-
-The AMDGPU backend
-------------------
-
-The AMDGPU code generator lives in the ``lib/Target/AMDGPU``
-directory. This code generator is capable of targeting a variety of
-AMD GPU processors. Refer to :doc:`AMDGPUUsage` for more information.

+Introduction
+============
+
+The LLVM target-independent code generator is a framework that provides a suite
+of reusable components for translating the LLVM internal representation to the
+machine code for a specified target---either in assembly form (suitable for a
+static compiler) or in binary machine code format (usable for a JIT
+compiler). The LLVM target-independent code generator consists of six main
+components:
+
+1. `Abstract target description`_ interfaces which capture important properties
+ about various aspects of the machine, independently of how they will be used.
+ These interfaces are defined in ``include/llvm/Target/``.
+
+2. Classes used to represent the `code being generated`_ for a target. These
+ classes are intended to be abstract enough to represent the machine code for
+ *any* target machine. These classes are defined in
+ ``include/llvm/CodeGen/``. At this level, concepts like "constant pool
+ entries" and "jump tables" are explicitly exposed.
+
+3. Classes and algorithms used to represent code at the object file level, the
+ `MC Layer`_. These classes represent assembly level constructs like labels,
+ sections, and instructions. At this level, concepts like "constant pool
+ entries" and "jump tables" don't exist.
+
+4. `Target-independent algorithms`_ used to implement various phases of native
+ code generation (register allocation, scheduling, stack frame representation,
+ etc). This code lives in ``lib/CodeGen/``.
+
+5. `Implementations of the abstract target description interfaces`_ for
+ particular targets. These machine descriptions make use of the components
+ provided by LLVM, and can optionally provide custom target-specific passes,
+ to build complete code generators for a specific target. Target descriptions
+ live in ``lib/Target/``.
+
+6. The target-independent JIT components. The LLVM JIT is completely target
+ independent (it uses the ``TargetJITInfo`` structure to interface for
+ target-specific issues. The code for the target-independent JIT lives in
+ ``lib/ExecutionEngine/JIT``.
+
+Depending on which part of the code generator you are interested in working on,
+different pieces of this will be useful to you. In any case, you should be
+familiar with the `target description`_ and `machine code representation`_
+classes. If you want to add a backend for a new target, you will need to
+`implement the target description`_ classes for your new target and understand
+the :doc:`LLVM code representation <LangRef>`. If you are interested in
+implementing a new `code generation algorithm`_, it should only depend on the
+target-description and machine code representation classes, ensuring that it is
+portable.
+
+Required components in the code generator
+-----------------------------------------
+
+The two pieces of the LLVM code generator are the high-level interface to the
+code generator and the set of reusable components that can be used to build
+target-specific backends. The two most important interfaces (:raw-html:`<tt>`
+`TargetMachine`_ :raw-html:`</tt>` and :raw-html:`<tt>` `DataLayout`_
+:raw-html:`</tt>`) are the only ones that are required to be defined for a
+backend to fit into the LLVM system, but the others must be defined if the
+reusable code generator components are going to be used.
+
+This design has two important implications. The first is that LLVM can support
+completely non-traditional code generation targets. For example, the C backend
+does not require register allocation, instruction selection, or any of the other
+standard components provided by the system. As such, it only implements these
+two interfaces, and does its own thing. Note that C backend was removed from the
+trunk since LLVM 3.1 release. Another example of a code generator like this is a
+(purely hypothetical) backend that converts LLVM to the GCC RTL form and uses
+GCC to emit machine code for a target.
+
+This design also implies that it is possible to design and implement radically
+different code generators in the LLVM system that do not make use of any of the
+built-in components. Doing so is not recommended at all, but could be required
+for radically different targets that do not fit into the LLVM machine
+description model: FPGAs for example.
+
+.. _high-level design of the code generator:
+
+The high-level design of the code generator
+-------------------------------------------
+
+The LLVM target-independent code generator is designed to support efficient and
+quality code generation for standard register-based microprocessors. Code
+generation in this model is divided into the following stages:
+
+1. `Instruction Selection`_ --- This phase determines an efficient way to
+ express the input LLVM code in the target instruction set. This stage
+ produces the initial code for the program in the target instruction set, then
+ makes use of virtual registers in SSA form and physical registers that
+ represent any required register assignments due to target constraints or
+ calling conventions. This step turns the LLVM code into a DAG of target
+ instructions.
+
+2. `Scheduling and Formation`_ --- This phase takes the DAG of target
+ instructions produced by the instruction selection phase, determines an
+ ordering of the instructions, then emits the instructions as :raw-html:`<tt>`
+ `MachineInstr`_\s :raw-html:`</tt>` with that ordering. Note that we
+ describe this in the `instruction selection section`_ because it operates on
+ a `SelectionDAG`_.
+
+3. `SSA-based Machine Code Optimizations`_ --- This optional stage consists of a
+ series of machine-code optimizations that operate on the SSA-form produced by
+ the instruction selector. Optimizations like modulo-scheduling or peephole
+ optimization work here.
+
+4. `Register Allocation`_ --- The target code is transformed from an infinite
+ virtual register file in SSA form to the concrete register file used by the
+ target. This phase introduces spill code and eliminates all virtual register
+ references from the program.
+
+5. `Prolog/Epilog Code Insertion`_ --- Once the machine code has been generated
+ for the function and the amount of stack space required is known (used for
+ LLVM alloca's and spill slots), the prolog and epilog code for the function
+ can be inserted and "abstract stack location references" can be eliminated.
+ This stage is responsible for implementing optimizations like frame-pointer
+ elimination and stack packing.
+
+6. `Late Machine Code Optimizations`_ --- Optimizations that operate on "final"
+ machine code can go here, such as spill code scheduling and peephole
+ optimizations.
+
+7. `Code Emission`_ --- The final stage actually puts out the code for the
+ current function, either in the target assembler format or in machine
+ code.
+
+The code generator is based on the assumption that the instruction selector will
+use an optimal pattern matching selector to create high-quality sequences of
+native instructions. Alternative code generator designs based on pattern
+expansion and aggressive iterative peephole optimization are much slower. This
+design permits efficient compilation (important for JIT environments) and
+aggressive optimization (used when generating code offline) by allowing
+components of varying levels of sophistication to be used for any step of
+compilation.
+
+In addition to these stages, target implementations can insert arbitrary
+target-specific passes into the flow. For example, the X86 target uses a
+special pass to handle the 80x87 floating point stack architecture. Other
+targets with unusual requirements can be supported with custom passes as needed.
+
+Using TableGen for target description
+-------------------------------------
+
+The target description classes require a detailed description of the target
+architecture. These target descriptions often have a large amount of common
+information (e.g., an ``add`` instruction is almost identical to a ``sub``
+instruction). In order to allow the maximum amount of commonality to be
+factored out, the LLVM code generator uses the
+:doc:`TableGen/index` tool to describe big chunks of the
+target machine, which allows the use of domain-specific and target-specific
+abstractions to reduce the amount of repetition.
+
+As LLVM continues to be developed and refined, we plan to move more and more of
+the target description to the ``.td`` form. Doing so gives us a number of
+advantages. The most important is that it makes it easier to port LLVM because
+it reduces the amount of C++ code that has to be written, and the surface area
+of the code generator that needs to be understood before someone can get
+something working. Second, it makes it easier to change things. In particular,
+if tables and other things are all emitted by ``tblgen``, we only need a change
+in one place (``tblgen``) to update all of the targets to a new interface.
+
+.. _Abstract target description:
+.. _target description:
+
+Target description classes
+==========================
+
+The LLVM target description classes (located in the ``include/llvm/Target``
+directory) provide an abstract description of the target machine independent of
+any particular client. These classes are designed to capture the *abstract*
+properties of the target (such as the instructions and registers it has), and do
+not incorporate any particular pieces of code generation algorithms.
+
+All of the target description classes (except the :raw-html:`<tt>` `DataLayout`_
+:raw-html:`</tt>` class) are designed to be subclassed by the concrete target
+implementation, and have virtual methods implemented. To get to these
+implementations, the :raw-html:`<tt>` `TargetMachine`_ :raw-html:`</tt>` class
+provides accessors that should be implemented by the target.
+
+.. _TargetMachine:
+
+The ``TargetMachine`` class
+---------------------------
+
+The ``TargetMachine`` class provides virtual methods that are used to access the
+target-specific implementations of the various target description classes via
+the ``get*Info`` methods (``getInstrInfo``, ``getRegisterInfo``,
+``getFrameInfo``, etc.). This class is designed to be specialized by a concrete
+target implementation (e.g., ``X86TargetMachine``) which implements the various
+virtual methods. The only required target description class is the
+:raw-html:`<tt>` `DataLayout`_ :raw-html:`</tt>` class, but if the code
+generator components are to be used, the other interfaces should be implemented
+as well.
+
+.. _DataLayout:
+
+The ``DataLayout`` class
+------------------------
+
+The ``DataLayout`` class is the only required target description class, and it
+is the only class that is not extensible (you cannot derive a new class from
+it). ``DataLayout`` specifies information about how the target lays out memory
+for structures, the alignment requirements for various data types, the size of
+pointers in the target, and whether the target is little-endian or
+big-endian.
+
+.. _TargetLowering:
+
+The ``TargetLowering`` class
+----------------------------
+
+The ``TargetLowering`` class is used by SelectionDAG based instruction selectors
+primarily to describe how LLVM code should be lowered to SelectionDAG
+operations. Among other things, this class indicates:
+
+* an initial register class to use for various ``ValueType``\s,
+
+* which operations are natively supported by the target machine,
+
+* the return type of ``setcc`` operations,
+
+* the type to use for shift amounts, and
+
+* various high-level characteristics, like whether it is profitable to turn
+ division by a constant into a multiplication sequence.
+
+.. _TargetRegisterInfo:
+
+The ``TargetRegisterInfo`` class
+--------------------------------
+
+The ``TargetRegisterInfo`` class is used to describe the register file of the
+target and any interactions between the registers.
+
+Registers are represented in the code generator by unsigned integers. Physical
+registers (those that actually exist in the target description) are unique
+small numbers, and virtual registers are generally large. Note that
+register ``#0`` is reserved as a flag value.
+
+Each register in the processor description has an associated
+``TargetRegisterDesc`` entry, which provides a textual name for the register
+(used for assembly output and debugging dumps) and a set of aliases (used to
+indicate whether one register overlaps with another).
+
+In addition to the per-register description, the ``TargetRegisterInfo`` class
+exposes a set of processor specific register classes (instances of the
+``TargetRegisterClass`` class). Each register class contains sets of registers
+that have the same properties (for example, they are all 32-bit integer
+registers). Each SSA virtual register created by the instruction selector has
+an associated register class. When the register allocator runs, it replaces
+virtual registers with a physical register in the set.
+
+The target-specific implementations of these classes is auto-generated from a
+:doc:`TableGen/index` description of the register file.
+
+.. _TargetInstrInfo:
+
+The ``TargetInstrInfo`` class
+-----------------------------
+
+The ``TargetInstrInfo`` class is used to describe the machine instructions
+supported by the target. Descriptions define things like the mnemonic for
+the opcode, the number of operands, the list of implicit register uses and defs,
+whether the instruction has certain target-independent properties (accesses
+memory, is commutable, etc), and holds any target-specific flags.
+
+The ``TargetFrameLowering`` class
+---------------------------------
+
+The ``TargetFrameLowering`` class is used to provide information about the stack
+frame layout of the target. It holds the direction of stack growth, the known
+stack alignment on entry to each function, and the offset to the local area.
+The offset to the local area is the offset from the stack pointer on function
+entry to the first location where function data (local variables, spill
+locations) can be stored.
+
+The ``TargetSubtarget`` class
+-----------------------------
+
+The ``TargetSubtarget`` class is used to provide information about the specific
+chip set being targeted. A sub-target informs code generation of which
+instructions are supported, instruction latencies and instruction execution
+itinerary; i.e., which processing units are used, in what order, and for how
+long.
+
+The ``TargetJITInfo`` class
+---------------------------
+
+The ``TargetJITInfo`` class exposes an abstract interface used by the
+Just-In-Time code generator to perform target-specific activities, such as
+emitting stubs. If a ``TargetMachine`` supports JIT code generation, it should
+provide one of these objects through the ``getJITInfo`` method.
+
+.. _code being generated:
+.. _machine code representation:
+
+Machine code description classes
+================================
+
+At the high-level, LLVM code is translated to a machine specific representation
+formed out of :raw-html:`<tt>` `MachineFunction`_ :raw-html:`</tt>`,
+:raw-html:`<tt>` `MachineBasicBlock`_ :raw-html:`</tt>`, and :raw-html:`<tt>`
+`MachineInstr`_ :raw-html:`</tt>` instances (defined in
+``include/llvm/CodeGen``). This representation is completely target agnostic,
+representing instructions in their most abstract form: an opcode and a series of
+operands. This representation is designed to support both an SSA representation
+for machine code, as well as a register allocated, non-SSA form.
+
+.. _MachineInstr:
+
+The ``MachineInstr`` class
+--------------------------
+
+Target machine instructions are represented as instances of the ``MachineInstr``
+class. This class is an extremely abstract way of representing machine
+instructions. In particular, it only keeps track of an opcode number and a set
+of operands.
+
+The opcode number is a simple unsigned integer that only has meaning to a
+specific backend. All of the instructions for a target should be defined in the
+``*InstrInfo.td`` file for the target. The opcode enum values are auto-generated
+from this description. The ``MachineInstr`` class does not have any information
+about how to interpret the instruction (i.e., what the semantics of the
+instruction are); for that you must refer to the :raw-html:`<tt>`
+`TargetInstrInfo`_ :raw-html:`</tt>` class.
+
+The operands of a machine instruction can be of several different types: a
+register reference, a constant integer, a basic block reference, etc. In
+addition, a machine operand should be marked as a def or a use of the value
+(though only registers are allowed to be defs).
+
+By convention, the LLVM code generator orders instruction operands so that all
+register definitions come before the register uses, even on architectures that
+are normally printed in other orders. For example, the SPARC add instruction:
+"``add %i1, %i2, %i3``" adds the "%i1", and "%i2" registers and stores the
+result into the "%i3" register. In the LLVM code generator, the operands should
+be stored as "``%i3, %i1, %i2``": with the destination first.
+
+Keeping destination (definition) operands at the beginning of the operand list
+has several advantages. In particular, the debugging printer will print the
+instruction like this:
+
+.. code-block:: llvm
+
+ %r3 = add %i1, %i2
+
+Also if the first operand is a def, it is easier to `create instructions`_ whose
+only def is the first operand.
+
+.. _create instructions:
+
+Using the ``MachineInstrBuilder.h`` functions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Machine instructions are created by using the ``BuildMI`` functions, located in
+the ``include/llvm/CodeGen/MachineInstrBuilder.h`` file. The ``BuildMI``
+functions make it easy to build arbitrary machine instructions. Usage of the
+``BuildMI`` functions look like this:
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+ // Create a 'DestReg = mov 42' (rendered in X86 assembly as 'mov DestReg, 42')
+ // instruction and insert it at the end of the given MachineBasicBlock.
+ const TargetInstrInfo &TII = ...
+ MachineBasicBlock &MBB = ...
+ DebugLoc DL;
+ MachineInstr *MI = BuildMI(MBB, DL, TII.get(X86::MOV32ri), DestReg).addImm(42);
+
+ // Create the same instr, but insert it before a specified iterator point.
+ MachineBasicBlock::iterator MBBI = ...
+ BuildMI(MBB, MBBI, DL, TII.get(X86::MOV32ri), DestReg).addImm(42);
+
+ // Create a 'cmp Reg, 0' instruction, no destination reg.
+ MI = BuildMI(MBB, DL, TII.get(X86::CMP32ri8)).addReg(Reg).addImm(42);
+
+ // Create an 'sahf' instruction which takes no operands and stores nothing.
+ MI = BuildMI(MBB, DL, TII.get(X86::SAHF));
+
+ // Create a self looping branch instruction.
+ BuildMI(MBB, DL, TII.get(X86::JNE)).addMBB(&MBB);
+
+If you need to add a definition operand (other than the optional destination
+register), you must explicitly mark it as such:
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+ MI.addReg(Reg, RegState::Define);
+
+Fixed (preassigned) registers
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+One important issue that the code generator needs to be aware of is the presence
+of fixed registers. In particular, there are often places in the instruction
+stream where the register allocator *must* arrange for a particular value to be
+in a particular register. This can occur due to limitations of the instruction
+set (e.g., the X86 can only do a 32-bit divide with the ``EAX``/``EDX``
+registers), or external factors like calling conventions. In any case, the
+instruction selector should emit code that copies a virtual register into or out
+of a physical register when needed.
+
+For example, consider this simple LLVM example:
+
+.. code-block:: llvm
+
+ define i32 @test(i32 %X, i32 %Y) {
+ %Z = sdiv i32 %X, %Y
+ ret i32 %Z
+ }
+
+The X86 instruction selector might produce this machine code for the ``div`` and
+``ret``:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+ ;; Start of div
+ %EAX = mov %reg1024 ;; Copy X (in reg1024) into EAX
+ %reg1027 = sar %reg1024, 31
+ %EDX = mov %reg1027 ;; Sign extend X into EDX
+ idiv %reg1025 ;; Divide by Y (in reg1025)
+ %reg1026 = mov %EAX ;; Read the result (Z) out of EAX
+
+ ;; Start of ret
+ %EAX = mov %reg1026 ;; 32-bit return value goes in EAX
+ ret
+
+By the end of code generation, the register allocator would coalesce the
+registers and delete the resultant identity moves producing the following
+code:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+ ;; X is in EAX, Y is in ECX
+ mov %EAX, %EDX
+ sar %EDX, 31
+ idiv %ECX
+ ret
+
+This approach is extremely general (if it can handle the X86 architecture, it
+can handle anything!) and allows all of the target specific knowledge about the
+instruction stream to be isolated in the instruction selector. Note that
+physical registers should have a short lifetime for good code generation, and
+all physical registers are assumed dead on entry to and exit from basic blocks
+(before register allocation). Thus, if you need a value to be live across basic
+block boundaries, it *must* live in a virtual register.
+
+Call-clobbered registers
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Some machine instructions, like calls, clobber a large number of physical
+registers. Rather than adding ``<def,dead>`` operands for all of them, it is
+possible to use an ``MO_RegisterMask`` operand instead. The register mask
+operand holds a bit mask of preserved registers, and everything else is
+considered to be clobbered by the instruction.
+
+Machine code in SSA form
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+``MachineInstr``'s are initially selected in SSA-form, and are maintained in
+SSA-form until register allocation happens. For the most part, this is
+trivially simple since LLVM is already in SSA form; LLVM PHI nodes become
+machine code PHI nodes, and virtual registers are only allowed to have a single
+definition.
+
+After register allocation, machine code is no longer in SSA-form because there
+are no virtual registers left in the code.
+
+.. _MachineBasicBlock:
+
+The ``MachineBasicBlock`` class
+-------------------------------
+
+The ``MachineBasicBlock`` class contains a list of machine instructions
+(:raw-html:`<tt>` `MachineInstr`_ :raw-html:`</tt>` instances). It roughly
+corresponds to the LLVM code input to the instruction selector, but there can be
+a one-to-many mapping (i.e. one LLVM basic block can map to multiple machine
+basic blocks). The ``MachineBasicBlock`` class has a "``getBasicBlock``" method,
+which returns the LLVM basic block that it comes from.
+
+.. _MachineFunction:
+
+The ``MachineFunction`` class
+-----------------------------
+
+The ``MachineFunction`` class contains a list of machine basic blocks
+(:raw-html:`<tt>` `MachineBasicBlock`_ :raw-html:`</tt>` instances). It
+corresponds one-to-one with the LLVM function input to the instruction selector.
+In addition to a list of basic blocks, the ``MachineFunction`` contains a a
+``MachineConstantPool``, a ``MachineFrameInfo``, a ``MachineFunctionInfo``, and
+a ``MachineRegisterInfo``. See ``include/llvm/CodeGen/MachineFunction.h`` for
+more information.
+
+``MachineInstr Bundles``
+------------------------
+
+LLVM code generator can model sequences of instructions as MachineInstr
+bundles. A MI bundle can model a VLIW group / pack which contains an arbitrary
+number of parallel instructions. It can also be used to model a sequential list
+of instructions (potentially with data dependencies) that cannot be legally
+separated (e.g. ARM Thumb2 IT blocks).
+
+Conceptually a MI bundle is a MI with a number of other MIs nested within:
+
+::
+
+ --------------
+ | Bundle | ---------
+ -------------- \
+ | ----------------
+ | | MI |
+ | ----------------
+ | |
+ | ----------------
+ | | MI |
+ | ----------------
+ | |
+ | ----------------
+ | | MI |
+ | ----------------
+ |
+ --------------
+ | Bundle | --------
+ -------------- \
+ | ----------------
+ | | MI |
+ | ----------------
+ | |
+ | ----------------
+ | | MI |
+ | ----------------
+ | |
+ | ...
+ |
+ --------------
+ | Bundle | --------
+ -------------- \
+ |
+ ...
+
+MI bundle support does not change the physical representations of
+MachineBasicBlock and MachineInstr. All the MIs (including top level and nested
+ones) are stored as sequential list of MIs. The "bundled" MIs are marked with
+the 'InsideBundle' flag. A top level MI with the special BUNDLE opcode is used
+to represent the start of a bundle. It's legal to mix BUNDLE MIs with indiviual
+MIs that are not inside bundles nor represent bundles.
+
+MachineInstr passes should operate on a MI bundle as a single unit. Member
+methods have been taught to correctly handle bundles and MIs inside bundles.
+The MachineBasicBlock iterator has been modified to skip over bundled MIs to
+enforce the bundle-as-a-single-unit concept. An alternative iterator
+instr_iterator has been added to MachineBasicBlock to allow passes to iterate
+over all of the MIs in a MachineBasicBlock, including those which are nested
+inside bundles. The top level BUNDLE instruction must have the correct set of
+register MachineOperand's that represent the cumulative inputs and outputs of
+the bundled MIs.
+
+Packing / bundling of MachineInstr's should be done as part of the register
+allocation super-pass. More specifically, the pass which determines what MIs
+should be bundled together must be done after code generator exits SSA form
+(i.e. after two-address pass, PHI elimination, and copy coalescing). Bundles
+should only be finalized (i.e. adding BUNDLE MIs and input and output register
+MachineOperands) after virtual registers have been rewritten into physical
+registers. This requirement eliminates the need to add virtual register operands
+to BUNDLE instructions which would effectively double the virtual register def
+and use lists.
+
+.. _MC Layer:
+
+The "MC" Layer
+==============
+
+The MC Layer is used to represent and process code at the raw machine code
+level, devoid of "high level" information like "constant pools", "jump tables",
+"global variables" or anything like that. At this level, LLVM handles things
+like label names, machine instructions, and sections in the object file. The
+code in this layer is used for a number of important purposes: the tail end of
+the code generator uses it to write a .s or .o file, and it is also used by the
+llvm-mc tool to implement standalone machine code assemblers and disassemblers.
+
+This section describes some of the important classes. There are also a number
+of important subsystems that interact at this layer, they are described later in
+this manual.
+
+.. _MCStreamer:
+
+The ``MCStreamer`` API
+----------------------
+
+MCStreamer is best thought of as an assembler API. It is an abstract API which
+is *implemented* in different ways (e.g. to output a .s file, output an ELF .o
+file, etc) but whose API correspond directly to what you see in a .s file.
+MCStreamer has one method per directive, such as EmitLabel, EmitSymbolAttribute,
+SwitchSection, EmitValue (for .byte, .word), etc, which directly correspond to
+assembly level directives. It also has an EmitInstruction method, which is used
+to output an MCInst to the streamer.
+
+This API is most important for two clients: the llvm-mc stand-alone assembler is
+effectively a parser that parses a line, then invokes a method on MCStreamer. In
+the code generator, the `Code Emission`_ phase of the code generator lowers
+higher level LLVM IR and Machine* constructs down to the MC layer, emitting
+directives through MCStreamer.
+
+On the implementation side of MCStreamer, there are two major implementations:
+one for writing out a .s file (MCAsmStreamer), and one for writing out a .o
+file (MCObjectStreamer). MCAsmStreamer is a straightforward implementation
+that prints out a directive for each method (e.g. ``EmitValue -> .byte``), but
+MCObjectStreamer implements a full assembler.
+
+For target specific directives, the MCStreamer has a MCTargetStreamer instance.
+Each target that needs it defines a class that inherits from it and is a lot
+like MCStreamer itself: It has one method per directive and two classes that
+inherit from it, a target object streamer and a target asm streamer. The target
+asm streamer just prints it (``emitFnStart -> .fnstart``), and the object
+streamer implement the assembler logic for it.
+
+To make llvm use these classes, the target initialization must call
+TargetRegistry::RegisterAsmStreamer and TargetRegistry::RegisterMCObjectStreamer
+passing callbacks that allocate the corresponding target streamer and pass it
+to createAsmStreamer or to the appropriate object streamer constructor.
+
+The ``MCContext`` class
+-----------------------
+
+The MCContext class is the owner of a variety of uniqued data structures at the
+MC layer, including symbols, sections, etc. As such, this is the class that you
+interact with to create symbols and sections. This class can not be subclassed.
+
+The ``MCSymbol`` class
+----------------------
+
+The MCSymbol class represents a symbol (aka label) in the assembly file. There
+are two interesting kinds of symbols: assembler temporary symbols, and normal
+symbols. Assembler temporary symbols are used and processed by the assembler
+but are discarded when the object file is produced. The distinction is usually
+represented by adding a prefix to the label, for example "L" labels are
+assembler temporary labels in MachO.
+
+MCSymbols are created by MCContext and uniqued there. This means that MCSymbols
+can be compared for pointer equivalence to find out if they are the same symbol.
+Note that pointer inequality does not guarantee the labels will end up at
+different addresses though. It's perfectly legal to output something like this
+to the .s file:
+
+::
+
+ foo:
+ bar:
+ .byte 4
+
+In this case, both the foo and bar symbols will have the same address.
+
+The ``MCSection`` class
+-----------------------
+
+The ``MCSection`` class represents an object-file specific section. It is
+subclassed by object file specific implementations (e.g. ``MCSectionMachO``,
+``MCSectionCOFF``, ``MCSectionELF``) and these are created and uniqued by
+MCContext. The MCStreamer has a notion of the current section, which can be
+changed with the SwitchToSection method (which corresponds to a ".section"
+directive in a .s file).
+
+.. _MCInst:
+
+The ``MCInst`` class
+--------------------
+
+The ``MCInst`` class is a target-independent representation of an instruction.
+It is a simple class (much more so than `MachineInstr`_) that holds a
+target-specific opcode and a vector of MCOperands. MCOperand, in turn, is a
+simple discriminated union of three cases: 1) a simple immediate, 2) a target
+register ID, 3) a symbolic expression (e.g. "``Lfoo-Lbar+42``") as an MCExpr.
+
+MCInst is the common currency used to represent machine instructions at the MC
+layer. It is the type used by the instruction encoder, the instruction printer,
+and the type generated by the assembly parser and disassembler.
+
+.. _Target-independent algorithms:
+.. _code generation algorithm:
+
+Target-independent code generation algorithms
+=============================================
+
+This section documents the phases described in the `high-level design of the
+code generator`_. It explains how they work and some of the rationale behind
+their design.
+
+.. _Instruction Selection:
+.. _instruction selection section:
+
+Instruction Selection
+---------------------
+
+Instruction Selection is the process of translating LLVM code presented to the
+code generator into target-specific machine instructions. There are several
+well-known ways to do this in the literature. LLVM uses a SelectionDAG based
+instruction selector.
+
+Portions of the DAG instruction selector are generated from the target
+description (``*.td``) files. Our goal is for the entire instruction selector
+to be generated from these ``.td`` files, though currently there are still
+things that require custom C++ code.
+
+.. _SelectionDAG:
+
+Introduction to SelectionDAGs
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The SelectionDAG provides an abstraction for code representation in a way that
+is amenable to instruction selection using automatic techniques
+(e.g. dynamic-programming based optimal pattern matching selectors). It is also
+well-suited to other phases of code generation; in particular, instruction
+scheduling (SelectionDAG's are very close to scheduling DAGs post-selection).
+Additionally, the SelectionDAG provides a host representation where a large
+variety of very-low-level (but target-independent) `optimizations`_ may be
+performed; ones which require extensive information about the instructions
+efficiently supported by the target.
+
+The SelectionDAG is a Directed-Acyclic-Graph whose nodes are instances of the
+``SDNode`` class. The primary payload of the ``SDNode`` is its operation code
+(Opcode) that indicates what operation the node performs and the operands to the
+operation. The various operation node types are described at the top of the
+``include/llvm/CodeGen/ISDOpcodes.h`` file.
+
+Although most operations define a single value, each node in the graph may
+define multiple values. For example, a combined div/rem operation will define
+both the dividend and the remainder. Many other situations require multiple
+values as well. Each node also has some number of operands, which are edges to
+the node defining the used value. Because nodes may define multiple values,
+edges are represented by instances of the ``SDValue`` class, which is a
+``<SDNode, unsigned>`` pair, indicating the node and result value being used,
+respectively. Each value produced by an ``SDNode`` has an associated ``MVT``
+(Machine Value Type) indicating what the type of the value is.
+
+SelectionDAGs contain two different kinds of values: those that represent data
+flow and those that represent control flow dependencies. Data values are simple
+edges with an integer or floating point value type. Control edges are
+represented as "chain" edges which are of type ``MVT::Other``. These edges
+provide an ordering between nodes that have side effects (such as loads, stores,
+calls, returns, etc). All nodes that have side effects should take a token
+chain as input and produce a new one as output. By convention, token chain
+inputs are always operand #0, and chain results are always the last value
+produced by an operation. However, after instruction selection, the
+machine nodes have their chain after the instruction's operands, and
+may be followed by glue nodes.
+
+A SelectionDAG has designated "Entry" and "Root" nodes. The Entry node is
+always a marker node with an Opcode of ``ISD::EntryToken``. The Root node is
+the final side-effecting node in the token chain. For example, in a single basic
+block function it would be the return node.
+
+One important concept for SelectionDAGs is the notion of a "legal" vs.
+"illegal" DAG. A legal DAG for a target is one that only uses supported
+operations and supported types. On a 32-bit PowerPC, for example, a DAG with a
+value of type i1, i8, i16, or i64 would be illegal, as would a DAG that uses a
+SREM or UREM operation. The `legalize types`_ and `legalize operations`_ phases
+are responsible for turning an illegal DAG into a legal DAG.
+
+.. _SelectionDAG-Process:
+
+SelectionDAG Instruction Selection Process
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+SelectionDAG-based instruction selection consists of the following steps:
+
+#. `Build initial DAG`_ --- This stage performs a simple translation from the
+ input LLVM code to an illegal SelectionDAG.
+
+#. `Optimize SelectionDAG`_ --- This stage performs simple optimizations on the
+ SelectionDAG to simplify it, and recognize meta instructions (like rotates
+ and ``div``/``rem`` pairs) for targets that support these meta operations.
+ This makes the resultant code more efficient and the `select instructions
+ from DAG`_ phase (below) simpler.
+
+#. `Legalize SelectionDAG Types`_ --- This stage transforms SelectionDAG nodes
+ to eliminate any types that are unsupported on the target.
+
+#. `Optimize SelectionDAG`_ --- The SelectionDAG optimizer is run to clean up
+ redundancies exposed by type legalization.
+
+#. `Legalize SelectionDAG Ops`_ --- This stage transforms SelectionDAG nodes to
+ eliminate any operations that are unsupported on the target.
+
+#. `Optimize SelectionDAG`_ --- The SelectionDAG optimizer is run to eliminate
+ inefficiencies introduced by operation legalization.
+
+#. `Select instructions from DAG`_ --- Finally, the target instruction selector
+ matches the DAG operations to target instructions. This process translates
+ the target-independent input DAG into another DAG of target instructions.
+
+#. `SelectionDAG Scheduling and Formation`_ --- The last phase assigns a linear
+ order to the instructions in the target-instruction DAG and emits them into
+ the MachineFunction being compiled. This step uses traditional prepass
+ scheduling techniques.
+
+After all of these steps are complete, the SelectionDAG is destroyed and the
+rest of the code generation passes are run.
+
+One great way to visualize what is going on here is to take advantage of a few
+LLC command line options. The following options pop up a window displaying the
+SelectionDAG at specific times (if you only get errors printed to the console
+while using this, you probably `need to configure your
+system <ProgrammersManual.html#viewing-graphs-while-debugging-code>`_ to add support for it).
+
+* ``-view-dag-combine1-dags`` displays the DAG after being built, before the
+ first optimization pass.
+
+* ``-view-legalize-dags`` displays the DAG before Legalization.
+
+* ``-view-dag-combine2-dags`` displays the DAG before the second optimization
+ pass.
+
+* ``-view-isel-dags`` displays the DAG before the Select phase.
+
+* ``-view-sched-dags`` displays the DAG before Scheduling.
+
+The ``-view-sunit-dags`` displays the Scheduler's dependency graph. This graph
+is based on the final SelectionDAG, with nodes that must be scheduled together
+bundled into a single scheduling-unit node, and with immediate operands and
+other nodes that aren't relevant for scheduling omitted.
+
+The option ``-filter-view-dags`` allows to select the name of the basic block
+that you are interested to visualize and filters all the previous
+``view-*-dags`` options.
+
+.. _Build initial DAG:
+
+Initial SelectionDAG Construction
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The initial SelectionDAG is na\ :raw-html:`ï`\ vely peephole expanded from
+the LLVM input by the ``SelectionDAGBuilder`` class. The intent of this pass
+is to expose as much low-level, target-specific details to the SelectionDAG as
+possible. This pass is mostly hard-coded (e.g. an LLVM ``add`` turns into an
+``SDNode add`` while a ``getelementptr`` is expanded into the obvious
+arithmetic). This pass requires target-specific hooks to lower calls, returns,
+varargs, etc. For these features, the :raw-html:`<tt>` `TargetLowering`_
+:raw-html:`</tt>` interface is used.
+
+.. _legalize types:
+.. _Legalize SelectionDAG Types:
+.. _Legalize SelectionDAG Ops:
+
+SelectionDAG LegalizeTypes Phase
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The Legalize phase is in charge of converting a DAG to only use the types that
+are natively supported by the target.
+
+There are two main ways of converting values of unsupported scalar types to
+values of supported types: converting small types to larger types ("promoting"),
+and breaking up large integer types into smaller ones ("expanding"). For
+example, a target might require that all f32 values are promoted to f64 and that
+all i1/i8/i16 values are promoted to i32. The same target might require that
+all i64 values be expanded into pairs of i32 values. These changes can insert
+sign and zero extensions as needed to make sure that the final code has the same
+behavior as the input.
+
+There are two main ways of converting values of unsupported vector types to
+value of supported types: splitting vector types, multiple times if necessary,
+until a legal type is found, and extending vector types by adding elements to
+the end to round them out to legal types ("widening"). If a vector gets split
+all the way down to single-element parts with no supported vector type being
+found, the elements are converted to scalars ("scalarizing").
+
+A target implementation tells the legalizer which types are supported (and which
+register class to use for them) by calling the ``addRegisterClass`` method in
+its ``TargetLowering`` constructor.
+
+.. _legalize operations:
+.. _Legalizer:
+
+SelectionDAG Legalize Phase
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The Legalize phase is in charge of converting a DAG to only use the operations
+that are natively supported by the target.
+
+Targets often have weird constraints, such as not supporting every operation on
+every supported datatype (e.g. X86 does not support byte conditional moves and
+PowerPC does not support sign-extending loads from a 16-bit memory location).
+Legalize takes care of this by open-coding another sequence of operations to
+emulate the operation ("expansion"), by promoting one type to a larger type that
+supports the operation ("promotion"), or by using a target-specific hook to
+implement the legalization ("custom").
+
+A target implementation tells the legalizer which operations are not supported
+(and which of the above three actions to take) by calling the
+``setOperationAction`` method in its ``TargetLowering`` constructor.
+
+Prior to the existence of the Legalize passes, we required that every target
+`selector`_ supported and handled every operator and type even if they are not
+natively supported. The introduction of the Legalize phases allows all of the
+canonicalization patterns to be shared across targets, and makes it very easy to
+optimize the canonicalized code because it is still in the form of a DAG.
+
+.. _optimizations:
+.. _Optimize SelectionDAG:
+.. _selector:
+
+SelectionDAG Optimization Phase: the DAG Combiner
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The SelectionDAG optimization phase is run multiple times for code generation,
+immediately after the DAG is built and once after each legalization. The first
+run of the pass allows the initial code to be cleaned up (e.g. performing
+optimizations that depend on knowing that the operators have restricted type
+inputs). Subsequent runs of the pass clean up the messy code generated by the
+Legalize passes, which allows Legalize to be very simple (it can focus on making
+code legal instead of focusing on generating *good* and legal code).
+
+One important class of optimizations performed is optimizing inserted sign and
+zero extension instructions. We currently use ad-hoc techniques, but could move
+to more rigorous techniques in the future. Here are some good papers on the
+subject:

+
+.. _Select instructions from DAG:
+
+SelectionDAG Select Phase
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The Select phase is the bulk of the target-specific code for instruction
+selection. This phase takes a legal SelectionDAG as input, pattern matches the
+instructions supported by the target to this DAG, and produces a new DAG of
+target code. For example, consider the following LLVM fragment:
+
+.. code-block:: llvm
+
+ %t1 = fadd float %W, %X
+ %t2 = fmul float %t1, %Y
+ %t3 = fadd float %t2, %Z
+
+This LLVM code corresponds to a SelectionDAG that looks basically like this:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+ (fadd:f32 (fmul:f32 (fadd:f32 W, X), Y), Z)
+
+If a target supports floating point multiply-and-add (FMA) operations, one of
+the adds can be merged with the multiply. On the PowerPC, for example, the
+output of the instruction selector might look like this DAG:
+
+::
+
+ (FMADDS (FADDS W, X), Y, Z)
+
+The ``FMADDS`` instruction is a ternary instruction that multiplies its first
+two operands and adds the third (as single-precision floating-point numbers).
+The ``FADDS`` instruction is a simple binary single-precision add instruction.
+To perform this pattern match, the PowerPC backend includes the following
+instruction definitions:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+ :emphasize-lines: 4-5,9
+
+ def FMADDS : AForm_1<59, 29,
+ (ops F4RC:$FRT, F4RC:$FRA, F4RC:$FRC, F4RC:$FRB),
+ "fmadds $FRT, $FRA, $FRC, $FRB",
+ [(set F4RC:$FRT, (fadd (fmul F4RC:$FRA, F4RC:$FRC),
+ F4RC:$FRB))]>;
+ def FADDS : AForm_2<59, 21,
+ (ops F4RC:$FRT, F4RC:$FRA, F4RC:$FRB),
+ "fadds $FRT, $FRA, $FRB",
+ [(set F4RC:$FRT, (fadd F4RC:$FRA, F4RC:$FRB))]>;
+
+The highlighted portion of the instruction definitions indicates the pattern
+used to match the instructions. The DAG operators (like ``fmul``/``fadd``)
+are defined in the ``include/llvm/Target/TargetSelectionDAG.td`` file.
+"``F4RC``" is the register class of the input and result values.
+
+The TableGen DAG instruction selector generator reads the instruction patterns
+in the ``.td`` file and automatically builds parts of the pattern matching code
+for your target. It has the following strengths:
+
+* At compiler-compile time, it analyzes your instruction patterns and tells you
+ if your patterns make sense or not.
+
+* It can handle arbitrary constraints on operands for the pattern match. In
+ particular, it is straight-forward to say things like "match any immediate
+ that is a 13-bit sign-extended value". For examples, see the ``immSExt16``
+ and related ``tblgen`` classes in the PowerPC backend.
+
+* It knows several important identities for the patterns defined. For example,
+ it knows that addition is commutative, so it allows the ``FMADDS`` pattern
+ above to match "``(fadd X, (fmul Y, Z))``" as well as "``(fadd (fmul X, Y),
+ Z)``", without the target author having to specially handle this case.
+
+* It has a full-featured type-inferencing system. In particular, you should
+ rarely have to explicitly tell the system what type parts of your patterns
+ are. In the ``FMADDS`` case above, we didn't have to tell ``tblgen`` that all
+ of the nodes in the pattern are of type 'f32'. It was able to infer and
+ propagate this knowledge from the fact that ``F4RC`` has type 'f32'.
+
+* Targets can define their own (and rely on built-in) "pattern fragments".
+ Pattern fragments are chunks of reusable patterns that get inlined into your
+ patterns during compiler-compile time. For example, the integer "``(not
+ x)``" operation is actually defined as a pattern fragment that expands as
+ "``(xor x, -1)``", since the SelectionDAG does not have a native '``not``'
+ operation. Targets can define their own short-hand fragments as they see fit.
+ See the definition of '``not``' and '``ineg``' for examples.
+
+* In addition to instructions, targets can specify arbitrary patterns that map
+ to one or more instructions using the 'Pat' class. For example, the PowerPC
+ has no way to load an arbitrary integer immediate into a register in one
+ instruction. To tell tblgen how to do this, it defines:
+
+ ::
+
+ // Arbitrary immediate support. Implement in terms of LIS/ORI.
+ def : Pat<(i32 imm:$imm),
+ (ORI (LIS (HI16 imm:$imm)), (LO16 imm:$imm))>;
+
+ If none of the single-instruction patterns for loading an immediate into a
+ register match, this will be used. This rule says "match an arbitrary i32
+ immediate, turning it into an ``ORI`` ('or a 16-bit immediate') and an ``LIS``
+ ('load 16-bit immediate, where the immediate is shifted to the left 16 bits')
+ instruction". To make this work, the ``LO16``/``HI16`` node transformations
+ are used to manipulate the input immediate (in this case, take the high or low
+ 16-bits of the immediate).
+
+* When using the 'Pat' class to map a pattern to an instruction that has one
+ or more complex operands (like e.g. `X86 addressing mode`_), the pattern may
+ either specify the operand as a whole using a ``ComplexPattern``, or else it
+ may specify the components of the complex operand separately. The latter is
+ done e.g. for pre-increment instructions by the PowerPC back end:
+
+ ::
+
+ def STWU : DForm_1<37, (outs ptr_rc:$ea_res), (ins GPRC:$rS, memri:$dst),
+ "stwu $rS, $dst", LdStStoreUpd, []>,
+ RegConstraint<"$dst.reg = $ea_res">, NoEncode<"$ea_res">;
+
+ def : Pat<(pre_store GPRC:$rS, ptr_rc:$ptrreg, iaddroff:$ptroff),
+ (STWU GPRC:$rS, iaddroff:$ptroff, ptr_rc:$ptrreg)>;
+
+ Here, the pair of ``ptroff`` and ``ptrreg`` operands is matched onto the
+ complex operand ``dst`` of class ``memri`` in the ``STWU`` instruction.
+
+* While the system does automate a lot, it still allows you to write custom C++
+ code to match special cases if there is something that is hard to
+ express.
+
+While it has many strengths, the system currently has some limitations,
+primarily because it is a work in progress and is not yet finished:
+
+* Overall, there is no way to define or match SelectionDAG nodes that define
+ multiple values (e.g. ``SMUL_LOHI``, ``LOAD``, ``CALL``, etc). This is the
+ biggest reason that you currently still *have to* write custom C++ code
+ for your instruction selector.
+
+* There is no great way to support matching complex addressing modes yet. In
+ the future, we will extend pattern fragments to allow them to define multiple
+ values (e.g. the four operands of the `X86 addressing mode`_, which are
+ currently matched with custom C++ code). In addition, we'll extend fragments
+ so that a fragment can match multiple different patterns.
+
+* We don't automatically infer flags like ``isStore``/``isLoad`` yet.
+
+* We don't automatically generate the set of supported registers and operations
+ for the `Legalizer`_ yet.
+
+* We don't have a way of tying in custom legalized nodes yet.
+
+Despite these limitations, the instruction selector generator is still quite

+
+SelectionDAG Scheduling and Formation Phase
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The scheduling phase takes the DAG of target instructions from the selection
+phase and assigns an order. The scheduler can pick an order depending on
+various constraints of the machines (i.e. order for minimal register pressure or
+try to cover instruction latencies). Once an order is established, the DAG is
+converted to a list of :raw-html:`<tt>` `MachineInstr`_\s :raw-html:`</tt>` and
+the SelectionDAG is destroyed.
+
+Note that this phase is logically separate from the instruction selection phase,
+but is tied to it closely in the code because it operates on SelectionDAGs.

+To Be Written
+
+Live Intervals
+--------------
+
+Live Intervals are the ranges (intervals) where a variable is *live*. They are
+used by some `register allocator`_ passes to determine if two or more virtual
+registers which require the same physical register are live at the same point in
+the program (i.e., they conflict). When this situation occurs, one virtual
+register must be *spilled*.
+
+Live Variable Analysis
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The first step in determining the live intervals of variables is to calculate
+the set of registers that are immediately dead after the instruction (i.e., the
+instruction calculates the value, but it is never used) and the set of registers
+that are used by the instruction, but are never used after the instruction
+(i.e., they are killed). Live variable information is computed for
+each *virtual* register and *register allocatable* physical register
+in the function. This is done in a very efficient manner because it uses SSA to
+sparsely compute lifetime information for virtual registers (which are in SSA
+form) and only has to track physical registers within a block. Before register
+allocation, LLVM can assume that physical registers are only live within a
+single basic block. This allows it to do a single, local analysis to resolve
+physical register lifetimes within each basic block. If a physical register is
+not register allocatable (e.g., a stack pointer or condition codes), it is not
+tracked.
+
+Physical registers may be live in to or out of a function. Live in values are
+typically arguments in registers. Live out values are typically return values in
+registers. Live in values are marked as such, and are given a dummy "defining"
+instruction during live intervals analysis. If the last basic block of a
+function is a ``return``, then it's marked as using all live out values in the
+function.
+
+``PHI`` nodes need to be handled specially, because the calculation of the live
+variable information from a depth first traversal of the CFG of the function
+won't guarantee that a virtual register used by the ``PHI`` node is defined
+before it's used. When a ``PHI`` node is encountered, only the definition is
+handled, because the uses will be handled in other basic blocks.
+
+For each ``PHI`` node of the current basic block, we simulate an assignment at
+the end of the current basic block and traverse the successor basic blocks. If a
+successor basic block has a ``PHI`` node and one of the ``PHI`` node's operands
+is coming from the current basic block, then the variable is marked as *alive*
+within the current basic block and all of its predecessor basic blocks, until
+the basic block with the defining instruction is encountered.
+
+Live Intervals Analysis
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+We now have the information available to perform the live intervals analysis and
+build the live intervals themselves. We start off by numbering the basic blocks
+and machine instructions. We then handle the "live-in" values. These are in
+physical registers, so the physical register is assumed to be killed by the end
+of the basic block. Live intervals for virtual registers are computed for some
+ordering of the machine instructions ``[1, N]``. A live interval is an interval
+``[i, j)``, where ``1 >= i >= j > N``, for which a variable is live.
+
+.. note::
+ More to come...
+
+.. _Register Allocation:
+.. _register allocator:
+
+Register Allocation
+-------------------
+
+The *Register Allocation problem* consists in mapping a program
+:raw-html:`<b><tt>` P\ :sub:`v`\ :raw-html:`</tt></b>`, that can use an unbounded
+number of virtual registers, to a program :raw-html:`<b><tt>` P\ :sub:`p`\
+:raw-html:`</tt></b>` that contains a finite (possibly small) number of physical
+registers. Each target architecture has a different number of physical
+registers. If the number of physical registers is not enough to accommodate all
+the virtual registers, some of them will have to be mapped into memory. These
+virtuals are called *spilled virtuals*.
+
+How registers are represented in LLVM
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+In LLVM, physical registers are denoted by integer numbers that normally range
+from 1 to 1023. To see how this numbering is defined for a particular
+architecture, you can read the ``GenRegisterNames.inc`` file for that
+architecture. For instance, by inspecting
+``lib/Target/X86/X86GenRegisterInfo.inc`` we see that the 32-bit register
+``EAX`` is denoted by 43, and the MMX register ``MM0`` is mapped to 65.
+
+Some architectures contain registers that share the same physical location. A
+notable example is the X86 platform. For instance, in the X86 architecture, the
+registers ``EAX``, ``AX`` and ``AL`` share the first eight bits. These physical
+registers are marked as *aliased* in LLVM. Given a particular architecture, you
+can check which registers are aliased by inspecting its ``RegisterInfo.td``
+file. Moreover, the class ``MCRegAliasIterator`` enumerates all the physical
+registers aliased to a register.
+
+Physical registers, in LLVM, are grouped in *Register Classes*. Elements in the
+same register class are functionally equivalent, and can be interchangeably
+used. Each virtual register can only be mapped to physical registers of a
+particular class. For instance, in the X86 architecture, some virtuals can only
+be allocated to 8 bit registers. A register class is described by
+``TargetRegisterClass`` objects. To discover if a virtual register is
+compatible with a given physical, this code can be used:
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+ bool RegMapping_Fer::compatible_class(MachineFunction &mf,
+ unsigned v_reg,
+ unsigned p_reg) {
+ assert(TargetRegisterInfo::isPhysicalRegister(p_reg) &&
+ "Target register must be physical");
+ const TargetRegisterClass *trc = mf.getRegInfo().getRegClass(v_reg);
+ return trc->contains(p_reg);
+ }
+
+Sometimes, mostly for debugging purposes, it is useful to change the number of
+physical registers available in the target architecture. This must be done
+statically, inside the ``TargetRegsterInfo.td`` file. Just ``grep`` for
+``RegisterClass``, the last parameter of which is a list of registers. Just
+commenting some out is one simple way to avoid them being used. A more polite
+way is to explicitly exclude some registers from the *allocation order*. See the
+definition of the ``GR8`` register class in
+``lib/Target/X86/X86RegisterInfo.td`` for an example of this.
+
+Virtual registers are also denoted by integer numbers. Contrary to physical
+registers, different virtual registers never share the same number. Whereas
+physical registers are statically defined in a ``TargetRegisterInfo.td`` file
+and cannot be created by the application developer, that is not the case with
+virtual registers. In order to create new virtual registers, use the method
+``MachineRegisterInfo::createVirtualRegister()``. This method will return a new
+virtual register. Use an ``IndexedMap<Foo, VirtReg2IndexFunctor>`` to hold
+information per virtual register. If you need to enumerate all virtual
+registers, use the function ``TargetRegisterInfo::index2VirtReg()`` to find the
+virtual register numbers:
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+ for (unsigned i = 0, e = MRI->getNumVirtRegs(); i != e; ++i) {
+ unsigned VirtReg = TargetRegisterInfo::index2VirtReg(i);
+ stuff(VirtReg);
+ }
+
+Before register allocation, the operands of an instruction are mostly virtual
+registers, although physical registers may also be used. In order to check if a
+given machine operand is a register, use the boolean function
+``MachineOperand::isRegister()``. To obtain the integer code of a register, use
+``MachineOperand::getReg()``. An instruction may define or use a register. For
+instance, ``ADD reg:1026 := reg:1025 reg:1024`` defines the registers 1024, and
+uses registers 1025 and 1026. Given a register operand, the method
+``MachineOperand::isUse()`` informs if that register is being used by the
+instruction. The method ``MachineOperand::isDef()`` informs if that registers is
+being defined.
+
+We will call physical registers present in the LLVM bitcode before register
+allocation *pre-colored registers*. Pre-colored registers are used in many
+different situations, for instance, to pass parameters of functions calls, and
+to store results of particular instructions. There are two types of pre-colored
+registers: the ones *implicitly* defined, and those *explicitly*
+defined. Explicitly defined registers are normal operands, and can be accessed
+with ``MachineInstr::getOperand(int)::getReg()``. In order to check which
+registers are implicitly defined by an instruction, use the
+``TargetInstrInfo::get(opcode)::ImplicitDefs``, where ``opcode`` is the opcode
+of the target instruction. One important difference between explicit and
+implicit physical registers is that the latter are defined statically for each
+instruction, whereas the former may vary depending on the program being
+compiled. For example, an instruction that represents a function call will
+always implicitly define or use the same set of physical registers. To read the
+registers implicitly used by an instruction, use
+``TargetInstrInfo::get(opcode)::ImplicitUses``. Pre-colored registers impose
+constraints on any register allocation algorithm. The register allocator must
+make sure that none of them are overwritten by the values of virtual registers
+while still alive.
+
+Mapping virtual registers to physical registers
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+There are two ways to map virtual registers to physical registers (or to memory
+slots). The first way, that we will call *direct mapping*, is based on the use
+of methods of the classes ``TargetRegisterInfo``, and ``MachineOperand``. The
+second way, that we will call *indirect mapping*, relies on the ``VirtRegMap``
+class in order to insert loads and stores sending and getting values to and from
+memory.
+
+The direct mapping provides more flexibility to the developer of the register
+allocator; however, it is more error prone, and demands more implementation
+work. Basically, the programmer will have to specify where load and store
+instructions should be inserted in the target function being compiled in order
+to get and store values in memory. To assign a physical register to a virtual
+register present in a given operand, use ``MachineOperand::setReg(p_reg)``. To
+insert a store instruction, use ``TargetInstrInfo::storeRegToStackSlot(...)``,
+and to insert a load instruction, use ``TargetInstrInfo::loadRegFromStackSlot``.
+
+The indirect mapping shields the application developer from the complexities of
+inserting load and store instructions. In order to map a virtual register to a
+physical one, use ``VirtRegMap::assignVirt2Phys(vreg, preg)``. In order to map
+a certain virtual register to memory, use
+``VirtRegMap::assignVirt2StackSlot(vreg)``. This method will return the stack
+slot where ``vreg``'s value will be located. If it is necessary to map another
+virtual register to the same stack slot, use
+``VirtRegMap::assignVirt2StackSlot(vreg, stack_location)``. One important point
+to consider when using the indirect mapping, is that even if a virtual register
+is mapped to memory, it still needs to be mapped to a physical register. This
+physical register is the location where the virtual register is supposed to be
+found before being stored or after being reloaded.
+
+If the indirect strategy is used, after all the virtual registers have been
+mapped to physical registers or stack slots, it is necessary to use a spiller
+object to place load and store instructions in the code. Every virtual that has
+been mapped to a stack slot will be stored to memory after being defined and will
+be loaded before being used. The implementation of the spiller tries to recycle
+load/store instructions, avoiding unnecessary instructions. For an example of
+how to invoke the spiller, see ``RegAllocLinearScan::runOnMachineFunction`` in
+``lib/CodeGen/RegAllocLinearScan.cpp``.
+
+Handling two address instructions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+With very rare exceptions (e.g., function calls), the LLVM machine code
+instructions are three address instructions. That is, each instruction is
+expected to define at most one register, and to use at most two registers.
+However, some architectures use two address instructions. In this case, the
+defined register is also one of the used registers. For instance, an instruction
+such as ``ADD %EAX, %EBX``, in X86 is actually equivalent to ``%EAX = %EAX +
+%EBX``.
+
+In order to produce correct code, LLVM must convert three address instructions
+that represent two address instructions into true two address instructions. LLVM
+provides the pass ``TwoAddressInstructionPass`` for this specific purpose. It
+must be run before register allocation takes place. After its execution, the
+resulting code may no longer be in SSA form. This happens, for instance, in
+situations where an instruction such as ``%a = ADD %b %c`` is converted to two
+instructions such as:
+
+::
+
+ %a = MOVE %b
+ %a = ADD %a %c
+
+Notice that, internally, the second instruction is represented as ``ADD
+%a[def/use] %c``. I.e., the register operand ``%a`` is both used and defined by
+the instruction.
+
+The SSA deconstruction phase
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+An important transformation that happens during register allocation is called
+the *SSA Deconstruction Phase*. The SSA form simplifies many analyses that are
+performed on the control flow graph of programs. However, traditional
+instruction sets do not implement PHI instructions. Thus, in order to generate
+executable code, compilers must replace PHI instructions with other instructions
+that preserve their semantics.
+
+There are many ways in which PHI instructions can safely be removed from the
+target code. The most traditional PHI deconstruction algorithm replaces PHI
+instructions with copy instructions. That is the strategy adopted by LLVM. The
+SSA deconstruction algorithm is implemented in
+``lib/CodeGen/PHIElimination.cpp``. In order to invoke this pass, the identifier
+``PHIEliminationID`` must be marked as required in the code of the register
+allocator.
+
+Instruction folding
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+*Instruction folding* is an optimization performed during register allocation
+that removes unnecessary copy instructions. For instance, a sequence of
+instructions such as:
+
+::
+
+ %EBX = LOAD %mem_address
+ %EAX = COPY %EBX
+
+can be safely substituted by the single instruction:
+
+::
+
+ %EAX = LOAD %mem_address
+
+Instructions can be folded with the
+``TargetRegisterInfo::foldMemoryOperand(...)`` method. Care must be taken when
+folding instructions; a folded instruction can be quite different from the
+original instruction. See ``LiveIntervals::addIntervalsForSpills`` in
+``lib/CodeGen/LiveIntervalAnalysis.cpp`` for an example of its use.
+
+Built in register allocators
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The LLVM infrastructure provides the application developer with three different
+register allocators:
+
+* *Fast* --- This register allocator is the default for debug builds. It
+ allocates registers on a basic block level, attempting to keep values in
+ registers and reusing registers as appropriate.
+
+* *Basic* --- This is an incremental approach to register allocation. Live
+ ranges are assigned to registers one at a time in an order that is driven by
+ heuristics. Since code can be rewritten on-the-fly during allocation, this
+ framework allows interesting allocators to be developed as extensions. It is
+ not itself a production register allocator but is a potentially useful
+ stand-alone mode for triaging bugs and as a performance baseline.
+
+* *Greedy* --- *The default allocator*. This is a highly tuned implementation of
+ the *Basic* allocator that incorporates global live range splitting. This
+ allocator works hard to minimize the cost of spill code.
+
+* *PBQP* --- A Partitioned Boolean Quadratic Programming (PBQP) based register
+ allocator. This allocator works by constructing a PBQP problem representing
+ the register allocation problem under consideration, solving this using a PBQP
+ solver, and mapping the solution back to a register assignment.
+
+The type of register allocator used in ``llc`` can be chosen with the command
+line option ``-regalloc=...``:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ llc -regalloc=linearscan file.bc -o ln.s
+ $ llc -regalloc=fast file.bc -o fa.s
+ $ llc -regalloc=pbqp file.bc -o pbqp.s
+
+.. _Prolog/Epilog Code Insertion:
+
+Prolog/Epilog Code Insertion
+----------------------------
+
+Compact Unwind
+
+Throwing an exception requires *unwinding* out of a function. The information on
+how to unwind a given function is traditionally expressed in DWARF unwind
+(a.k.a. frame) info. But that format was originally developed for debuggers to
+backtrace, and each Frame Description Entry (FDE) requires ~20-30 bytes per
+function. There is also the cost of mapping from an address in a function to the
+corresponding FDE at runtime. An alternative unwind encoding is called *compact
+unwind* and requires just 4-bytes per function.
+
+The compact unwind encoding is a 32-bit value, which is encoded in an
+architecture-specific way. It specifies which registers to restore and from
+where, and how to unwind out of the function. When the linker creates a final
+linked image, it will create a ``__TEXT,__unwind_info`` section. This section is
+a small and fast way for the runtime to access unwind info for any given
+function. If we emit compact unwind info for the function, that compact unwind
+info will be encoded in the ``__TEXT,__unwind_info`` section. If we emit DWARF
+unwind info, the ``__TEXT,__unwind_info`` section will contain the offset of the
+FDE in the ``__TEXT,__eh_frame`` section in the final linked image.
+
+For X86, there are three modes for the compact unwind encoding:
+
+*Function with a Frame Pointer (``EBP`` or ``RBP``)*
+ ``EBP/RBP``-based frame, where ``EBP/RBP`` is pushed onto the stack
+ immediately after the return address, then ``ESP/RSP`` is moved to
+ ``EBP/RBP``. Thus to unwind, ``ESP/RSP`` is restored with the current
+ ``EBP/RBP`` value, then ``EBP/RBP`` is restored by popping the stack, and the
+ return is done by popping the stack once more into the PC. All non-volatile
+ registers that need to be restored must have been saved in a small range on
+ the stack that starts ``EBP-4`` to ``EBP-1020`` (``RBP-8`` to
+ ``RBP-1020``). The offset (divided by 4 in 32-bit mode and 8 in 64-bit mode)
+ is encoded in bits 16-23 (mask: ``0x00FF0000``). The registers saved are
+ encoded in bits 0-14 (mask: ``0x00007FFF``) as five 3-bit entries from the
+ following table:
+
+ ============== ============= ===============
+ Compact Number i386 Register x86-64 Register
+ ============== ============= ===============
+ 1 ``EBX`` ``RBX``
+ 2 ``ECX`` ``R12``
+ 3 ``EDX`` ``R13``
+ 4 ``EDI`` ``R14``
+ 5 ``ESI`` ``R15``
+ 6 ``EBP`` ``RBP``
+ ============== ============= ===============
+
+*Frameless with a Small Constant Stack Size (``EBP`` or ``RBP`` is not used as a frame pointer)*
+ To return, a constant (encoded in the compact unwind encoding) is added to the
+ ``ESP/RSP``. Then the return is done by popping the stack into the PC. All
+ non-volatile registers that need to be restored must have been saved on the
+ stack immediately after the return address. The stack size (divided by 4 in
+ 32-bit mode and 8 in 64-bit mode) is encoded in bits 16-23 (mask:
+ ``0x00FF0000``). There is a maximum stack size of 1024 bytes in 32-bit mode
+ and 2048 in 64-bit mode. The number of registers saved is encoded in bits 9-12
+ (mask: ``0x00001C00``). Bits 0-9 (mask: ``0x000003FF``) contain which
+ registers were saved and their order. (See the
+ ``encodeCompactUnwindRegistersWithoutFrame()`` function in
+ ``lib/Target/X86FrameLowering.cpp`` for the encoding algorithm.)
+
+*Frameless with a Large Constant Stack Size (``EBP`` or ``RBP`` is not used as a frame pointer)*
+ This case is like the "Frameless with a Small Constant Stack Size" case, but
+ the stack size is too large to encode in the compact unwind encoding. Instead
+ it requires that the function contains "``subl $nnnnnn, %esp``" in its
+ prolog. The compact encoding contains the offset to the ``$nnnnnn`` value in
+ the function in bits 9-12 (mask: ``0x00001C00``).

+
+Late Machine Code Optimizations
+-------------------------------
+
+.. note::
+
+ To Be Written
+
+.. _Code Emission:
+
+Code Emission
+-------------
+
+The code emission step of code generation is responsible for lowering from the
+code generator abstractions (like `MachineFunction`_, `MachineInstr`_, etc) down
+to the abstractions used by the MC layer (`MCInst`_, `MCStreamer`_, etc). This
+is done with a combination of several different classes: the (misnamed)
+target-independent AsmPrinter class, target-specific subclasses of AsmPrinter
+(such as SparcAsmPrinter), and the TargetLoweringObjectFile class.
+
+Since the MC layer works at the level of abstraction of object files, it doesn't
+have a notion of functions, global variables etc. Instead, it thinks about
+labels, directives, and instructions. A key class used at this time is the
+MCStreamer class. This is an abstract API that is implemented in different ways
+(e.g. to output a .s file, output an ELF .o file, etc) that is effectively an
+"assembler API". MCStreamer has one method per directive, such as EmitLabel,
+EmitSymbolAttribute, SwitchSection, etc, which directly correspond to assembly
+level directives.
+
+If you are interested in implementing a code generator for a target, there are
+three important things that you have to implement for your target:
+
+#. First, you need a subclass of AsmPrinter for your target. This class
+ implements the general lowering process converting MachineFunction's into MC
+ label constructs. The AsmPrinter base class provides a number of useful
+ methods and routines, and also allows you to override the lowering process in
+ some important ways. You should get much of the lowering for free if you are
+ implementing an ELF, COFF, or MachO target, because the
+ TargetLoweringObjectFile class implements much of the common logic.
+
+#. Second, you need to implement an instruction printer for your target. The
+ instruction printer takes an `MCInst`_ and renders it to a raw_ostream as
+ text. Most of this is automatically generated from the .td file (when you
+ specify something like "``add $dst, $src1, $src2``" in the instructions), but
+ you need to implement routines to print operands.
+
+#. Third, you need to implement code that lowers a `MachineInstr`_ to an MCInst,
+ usually implemented in "<target>MCInstLower.cpp". This lowering process is
+ often target specific, and is responsible for turning jump table entries,
+ constant pool indices, global variable addresses, etc into MCLabels as
+ appropriate. This translation layer is also responsible for expanding pseudo
+ ops used by the code generator into the actual machine instructions they
+ correspond to. The MCInsts that are generated by this are fed into the
+ instruction printer or the encoder.
+
+Finally, at your choosing, you can also implement a subclass of MCCodeEmitter
+which lowers MCInst's into machine code bytes and relocations. This is
+important if you want to support direct .o file emission, or would like to
+implement an assembler for your target.
+
+VLIW Packetizer
+---------------
+
+In a Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) architecture, the compiler is responsible
+for mapping instructions to functional-units available on the architecture. To
+that end, the compiler creates groups of instructions called *packets* or
+*bundles*. The VLIW packetizer in LLVM is a target-independent mechanism to
+enable the packetization of machine instructions.
+
+Mapping from instructions to functional units
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Instructions in a VLIW target can typically be mapped to multiple functional
+units. During the process of packetizing, the compiler must be able to reason
+about whether an instruction can be added to a packet. This decision can be
+complex since the compiler has to examine all possible mappings of instructions
+to functional units. Therefore to alleviate compilation-time complexity, the
+VLIW packetizer parses the instruction classes of a target and generates tables
+at compiler build time. These tables can then be queried by the provided
+machine-independent API to determine if an instruction can be accommodated in a
+packet.
+
+How the packetization tables are generated and used
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The packetizer reads instruction classes from a target's itineraries and creates
+a deterministic finite automaton (DFA) to represent the state of a packet. A DFA
+consists of three major elements: inputs, states, and transitions. The set of
+inputs for the generated DFA represents the instruction being added to a
+packet. The states represent the possible consumption of functional units by
+instructions in a packet. In the DFA, transitions from one state to another
+occur on the addition of an instruction to an existing packet. If there is a
+legal mapping of functional units to instructions, then the DFA contains a
+corresponding transition. The absence of a transition indicates that a legal
+mapping does not exist and that the instruction cannot be added to the packet.
+
+To generate tables for a VLIW target, add *Target*\ GenDFAPacketizer.inc as a
+target to the Makefile in the target directory. The exported API provides three
+functions: ``DFAPacketizer::clearResources()``,
+``DFAPacketizer::reserveResources(MachineInstr *MI)``, and
+``DFAPacketizer::canReserveResources(MachineInstr *MI)``. These functions allow
+a target packetizer to add an instruction to an existing packet and to check
+whether an instruction can be added to a packet. See
+``llvm/CodeGen/DFAPacketizer.h`` for more information.
+
+Implementing a Native Assembler
+===============================
+
+Though you're probably reading this because you want to write or maintain a
+compiler backend, LLVM also fully supports building a native assembler.
+We've tried hard to automate the generation of the assembler from the .td files
+(in particular the instruction syntax and encodings), which means that a large
+part of the manual and repetitive data entry can be factored and shared with the
+compiler.
+
+Instruction Parsing
+-------------------
+
+.. note::
+
+ To Be Written
+
+
+Instruction Alias Processing
+----------------------------
+
+Once the instruction is parsed, it enters the MatchInstructionImpl function.
+The MatchInstructionImpl function performs alias processing and then does actual
+matching.
+
+Alias processing is the phase that canonicalizes different lexical forms of the
+same instructions down to one representation. There are several different kinds
+of alias that are possible to implement and they are listed below in the order
+that they are processed (which is in order from simplest/weakest to most
+complex/powerful). Generally you want to use the first alias mechanism that
+meets the needs of your instruction, because it will allow a more concise
+description.
+
+Mnemonic Aliases
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The first phase of alias processing is simple instruction mnemonic remapping for
+classes of instructions which are allowed with two different mnemonics. This
+phase is a simple and unconditionally remapping from one input mnemonic to one
+output mnemonic. It isn't possible for this form of alias to look at the
+operands at all, so the remapping must apply for all forms of a given mnemonic.
+Mnemonic aliases are defined simply, for example X86 has:
+
+::
+
+ def : MnemonicAlias<"cbw", "cbtw">;
+ def : MnemonicAlias<"smovq", "movsq">;
+ def : MnemonicAlias<"fldcww", "fldcw">;
+ def : MnemonicAlias<"fucompi", "fucomip">;
+ def : MnemonicAlias<"ud2a", "ud2">;
+
+... and many others. With a MnemonicAlias definition, the mnemonic is remapped
+simply and directly. Though MnemonicAlias's can't look at any aspect of the
+instruction (such as the operands) they can depend on global modes (the same
+ones supported by the matcher), through a Requires clause:
+
+::
+
+ def : MnemonicAlias<"pushf", "pushfq">, Requires<[In64BitMode]>;
+ def : MnemonicAlias<"pushf", "pushfl">, Requires<[In32BitMode]>;
+
+In this example, the mnemonic gets mapped into a different one depending on
+the current instruction set.
+
+Instruction Aliases
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The most general phase of alias processing occurs while matching is happening:
+it provides new forms for the matcher to match along with a specific instruction
+to generate. An instruction alias has two parts: the string to match and the
+instruction to generate. For example:
+
+::
+
+ def : InstAlias<"movsx $src, $dst", (MOVSX16rr8W GR16:$dst, GR8 :$src)>;
+ def : InstAlias<"movsx $src, $dst", (MOVSX16rm8W GR16:$dst, i8mem:$src)>;
+ def : InstAlias<"movsx $src, $dst", (MOVSX32rr8 GR32:$dst, GR8 :$src)>;
+ def : InstAlias<"movsx $src, $dst", (MOVSX32rr16 GR32:$dst, GR16 :$src)>;
+ def : InstAlias<"movsx $src, $dst", (MOVSX64rr8 GR64:$dst, GR8 :$src)>;
+ def : InstAlias<"movsx $src, $dst", (MOVSX64rr16 GR64:$dst, GR16 :$src)>;
+ def : InstAlias<"movsx $src, $dst", (MOVSX64rr32 GR64:$dst, GR32 :$src)>;
+
+This shows a powerful example of the instruction aliases, matching the same
+mnemonic in multiple different ways depending on what operands are present in
+the assembly. The result of instruction aliases can include operands in a
+different order than the destination instruction, and can use an input multiple
+times, for example:
+
+::
+
+ def : InstAlias<"clrb $reg", (XOR8rr GR8 :$reg, GR8 :$reg)>;
+ def : InstAlias<"clrw $reg", (XOR16rr GR16:$reg, GR16:$reg)>;
+ def : InstAlias<"clrl $reg", (XOR32rr GR32:$reg, GR32:$reg)>;
+ def : InstAlias<"clrq $reg", (XOR64rr GR64:$reg, GR64:$reg)>;
+
+This example also shows that tied operands are only listed once. In the X86
+backend, XOR8rr has two input GR8's and one output GR8 (where an input is tied
+to the output). InstAliases take a flattened operand list without duplicates
+for tied operands. The result of an instruction alias can also use immediates
+and fixed physical registers which are added as simple immediate operands in the
+result, for example:
+
+::
+
+ // Fixed Immediate operand.
+ def : InstAlias<"aad", (AAD8i8 10)>;
+
+ // Fixed register operand.
+ def : InstAlias<"fcomi", (COM_FIr ST1)>;
+
+ // Simple alias.
+ def : InstAlias<"fcomi $reg", (COM_FIr RST:$reg)>;
+
+Instruction aliases can also have a Requires clause to make them subtarget
+specific.
+
+If the back-end supports it, the instruction printer can automatically emit the
+alias rather than what's being aliased. It typically leads to better, more
+readable code. If it's better to print out what's being aliased, then pass a '0'
+as the third parameter to the InstAlias definition.

+Target-specific Implementation Notes
+====================================

+
+Note that this table does not list features that are not supported fully by any
+target yet. It considers a feature to be supported if at least one subtarget
+supports it. A feature being supported means that it is useful and works for
+most cases, it does not indicate that there are zero known bugs in the
+implementation. Here is the key:

+
+.. _feat_reliable:
+
+Is Generally Reliable
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This box indicates whether the target is considered to be production quality.
+This indicates that the target has been used as a static compiler to compile
+large amounts of code by a variety of different people and is in continuous use.
+
+.. _feat_asmparser:
+
+Assembly Parser
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This box indicates whether the target supports parsing target specific .s files
+by implementing the MCAsmParser interface. This is required for llvm-mc to be
+able to act as a native assembler and is required for inline assembly support in
+the native .o file writer.
+
+.. _feat_disassembler:
+
+Disassembler
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This box indicates whether the target supports the MCDisassembler API for
+disassembling machine opcode bytes into MCInst's.
+
+.. _feat_inlineasm:
+
+Inline Asm
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This box indicates whether the target supports most popular inline assembly
+constraints and modifiers.
+
+.. _feat_jit:
+
+JIT Support
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This box indicates whether the target supports the JIT compiler through the
+ExecutionEngine interface.
+
+.. _feat_jit_arm:
+
+The ARM backend has basic support for integer code in ARM codegen mode, but
+lacks NEON and full Thumb support.
+
+.. _feat_objectwrite:
+
+.o File Writing
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This box indicates whether the target supports writing .o files (e.g. MachO,
+ELF, and/or COFF) files directly from the target. Note that the target also
+must include an assembly parser and general inline assembly support for full
+inline assembly support in the .o writer.
+
+Targets that don't support this feature can obviously still write out .o files,
+they just rely on having an external assembler to translate from a .s file to a
+.o file (as is the case for many C compilers).
+
+.. _feat_tailcall:
+
+Tail Calls
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This box indicates whether the target supports guaranteed tail calls. These are
+calls marked "`tail <LangRef.html#i_call>`_" and use the fastcc calling
+convention. Please see the `tail call section`_ for more details.
+
+.. _feat_segstacks:
+
+Segmented Stacks
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This box indicates whether the target supports segmented stacks. This replaces
+the traditional large C stack with many linked segments. It is compatible with
+the `gcc implementation <http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/SplitStacks>`_ used by the Go
+front end.
+
+.. _feat_segstacks_x86:
+
+Basic support exists on the X86 backend. Currently vararg doesn't work and the
+object files are not marked the way the gold linker expects, but simple Go
+programs can be built by dragonegg.
+
+.. _tail call section:
+
+Tail call optimization
+----------------------
+
+Tail call optimization, callee reusing the stack of the caller, is currently
+supported on x86/x86-64 and PowerPC. It is performed if:
+
+* Caller and callee have the calling convention ``fastcc``, ``cc 10`` (GHC
+ calling convention) or ``cc 11`` (HiPE calling convention).
+
+* The call is a tail call - in tail position (ret immediately follows call and
+ ret uses value of call or is void).
+
+* Option ``-tailcallopt`` is enabled.
+
+* Platform-specific constraints are met.
+
+x86/x86-64 constraints:
+
+* No variable argument lists are used.
+
+* On x86-64 when generating GOT/PIC code only module-local calls (visibility =
+ hidden or protected) are supported.
+
+PowerPC constraints:
+
+* No variable argument lists are used.
+
+* No byval parameters are used.
+
+* On ppc32/64 GOT/PIC only module-local calls (visibility = hidden or protected)
+ are supported.
+
+Example:
+
+Call as ``llc -tailcallopt test.ll``.
+
+.. code-block:: llvm
+
+ declare fastcc i32 @tailcallee(i32 inreg %a1, i32 inreg %a2, i32 %a3, i32 %a4)
+
+ define fastcc i32 @tailcaller(i32 %in1, i32 %in2) {
+ %l1 = add i32 %in1, %in2
+ %tmp = tail call fastcc i32 @tailcallee(i32 %in1 inreg, i32 %in2 inreg, i32 %in1, i32 %l1)
+ ret i32 %tmp
+ }
+
+Implications of ``-tailcallopt``:
+
+To support tail call optimization in situations where the callee has more
+arguments than the caller a 'callee pops arguments' convention is used. This
+currently causes each ``fastcc`` call that is not tail call optimized (because
+one or more of above constraints are not met) to be followed by a readjustment
+of the stack. So performance might be worse in such cases.
+
+Sibling call optimization
+-------------------------
+
+Sibling call optimization is a restricted form of tail call optimization.
+Unlike tail call optimization described in the previous section, it can be
+performed automatically on any tail calls when ``-tailcallopt`` option is not
+specified.
+
+Sibling call optimization is currently performed on x86/x86-64 when the
+following constraints are met:
+
+* Caller and callee have the same calling convention. It can be either ``c`` or
+ ``fastcc``.
+
+* The call is a tail call - in tail position (ret immediately follows call and
+ ret uses value of call or is void).
+
+* Caller and callee have matching return type or the callee result is not used.
+
+* If any of the callee arguments are being passed in stack, they must be
+ available in caller's own incoming argument stack and the frame offsets must
+ be the same.
+
+Example:
+
+.. code-block:: llvm
+
+ declare i32 @bar(i32, i32)
+
+ define i32 @foo(i32 %a, i32 %b, i32 %c) {
+ entry:
+ %0 = tail call i32 @bar(i32 %a, i32 %b)
+ ret i32 %0
+ }
+
+The X86 backend
+---------------
+
+The X86 code generator lives in the ``lib/Target/X86`` directory. This code
+generator is capable of targeting a variety of x86-32 and x86-64 processors, and
+includes support for ISA extensions such as MMX and SSE.
+
+X86 Target Triples supported
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The following are the known target triples that are supported by the X86
+backend. This is not an exhaustive list, and it would be useful to add those
+that people test.
+
+* **i686-pc-linux-gnu** --- Linux
+
+* **i386-unknown-freebsd5.3** --- FreeBSD 5.3
+
+* **i686-pc-cygwin** --- Cygwin on Win32
+
+* **i686-pc-mingw32** --- MingW on Win32
+
+* **i386-pc-mingw32msvc** --- MingW crosscompiler on Linux
+
+* **i686-apple-darwin*** --- Apple Darwin on X86
+
+* **x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu** --- Linux
+
+X86 Calling Conventions supported
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The following target-specific calling conventions are known to backend:
+
+* **x86_StdCall** --- stdcall calling convention seen on Microsoft Windows
+ platform (CC ID = 64).
+
+* **x86_FastCall** --- fastcall calling convention seen on Microsoft Windows
+ platform (CC ID = 65).
+
+* **x86_ThisCall** --- Similar to X86_StdCall. Passes first argument in ECX,
+ others via stack. Callee is responsible for stack cleaning. This convention is
+ used by MSVC by default for methods in its ABI (CC ID = 70).
+
+.. _X86 addressing mode:
+
+Representing X86 addressing modes in MachineInstrs
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The x86 has a very flexible way of accessing memory. It is capable of forming
+memory addresses of the following expression directly in integer instructions
+(which use ModR/M addressing):
+
+::
+
+ SegmentReg: Base + [1,2,4,8] * IndexReg + Disp32
+
+In order to represent this, LLVM tracks no less than 5 operands for each memory
+operand of this form. This means that the "load" form of '``mov``' has the
+following ``MachineOperand``\s in this order:
+
+::
+
+ Index: 0 | 1 2 3 4 5
+ Meaning: DestReg, | BaseReg, Scale, IndexReg, Displacement Segment
+ OperandTy: VirtReg, | VirtReg, UnsImm, VirtReg, SignExtImm PhysReg
+
+Stores, and all other instructions, treat the four memory operands in the same
+way and in the same order. If the segment register is unspecified (regno = 0),
+then no segment override is generated. "Lea" operations do not have a segment
+register specified, so they only have 4 operands for their memory reference.
+
+X86 address spaces supported
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+x86 has a feature which provides the ability to perform loads and stores to
+different address spaces via the x86 segment registers. A segment override
+prefix byte on an instruction causes the instruction's memory access to go to
+the specified segment. LLVM address space 0 is the default address space, which
+includes the stack, and any unqualified memory accesses in a program. Address
+spaces 1-255 are currently reserved for user-defined code. The GS-segment is
+represented by address space 256, the FS-segment is represented by address space
+257, and the SS-segment is represented by address space 258. Other x86 segments
+have yet to be allocated address space numbers.
+
+While these address spaces may seem similar to TLS via the ``thread_local``
+keyword, and often use the same underlying hardware, there are some fundamental
+differences.
+
+The ``thread_local`` keyword applies to global variables and specifies that they
+are to be allocated in thread-local memory. There are no type qualifiers
+involved, and these variables can be pointed to with normal pointers and
+accessed with normal loads and stores. The ``thread_local`` keyword is
+target-independent at the LLVM IR level (though LLVM doesn't yet have
+implementations of it for some configurations)
+
+Special address spaces, in contrast, apply to static types. Every load and store
+has a particular address space in its address operand type, and this is what
+determines which address space is accessed. LLVM ignores these special address
+space qualifiers on global variables, and does not provide a way to directly
+allocate storage in them. At the LLVM IR level, the behavior of these special
+address spaces depends in part on the underlying OS or runtime environment, and
+they are specific to x86 (and LLVM doesn't yet handle them correctly in some
+cases).
+
+Some operating systems and runtime environments use (or may in the future use)
+the FS/GS-segment registers for various low-level purposes, so care should be
+taken when considering them.
+
+Instruction naming
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+An instruction name consists of the base name, a default operand size, and a a
+character per operand with an optional special size. For example:
+
+::
+
+ ADD8rr -> add, 8-bit register, 8-bit register
+ IMUL16rmi -> imul, 16-bit register, 16-bit memory, 16-bit immediate
+ IMUL16rmi8 -> imul, 16-bit register, 16-bit memory, 8-bit immediate
+ MOVSX32rm16 -> movsx, 32-bit register, 16-bit memory
+
+The PowerPC backend
+-------------------
+
+The PowerPC code generator lives in the lib/Target/PowerPC directory. The code
+generation is retargetable to several variations or *subtargets* of the PowerPC
+ISA; including ppc32, ppc64 and altivec.
+
+LLVM PowerPC ABI
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+LLVM follows the AIX PowerPC ABI, with two deviations. LLVM uses a PC relative
+(PIC) or static addressing for accessing global values, so no TOC (r2) is
+used. Second, r31 is used as a frame pointer to allow dynamic growth of a stack
+frame. LLVM takes advantage of having no TOC to provide space to save the frame
+pointer in the PowerPC linkage area of the caller frame. Other details of
+PowerPC ABI can be found at `PowerPC ABI
+<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/LowLevelABI/Articles/32bitPowerPC.html>`_\
+. Note: This link describes the 32 bit ABI. The 64 bit ABI is similar except
+space for GPRs are 8 bytes wide (not 4) and r13 is reserved for system use.
+
+Frame Layout
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The size of a PowerPC frame is usually fixed for the duration of a function's
+invocation. Since the frame is fixed size, all references into the frame can be
+accessed via fixed offsets from the stack pointer. The exception to this is
+when dynamic alloca or variable sized arrays are present, then a base pointer
+(r31) is used as a proxy for the stack pointer and stack pointer is free to grow
+or shrink. A base pointer is also used if llvm-gcc is not passed the
+-fomit-frame-pointer flag. The stack pointer is always aligned to 16 bytes, so
+that space allocated for altivec vectors will be properly aligned.
+
+An invocation frame is laid out as follows (low memory at top):
+
+:raw-html:`<table border="1" cellspacing="0">`
+:raw-html:`<tr>`
+:raw-html:`<td>Linkage<br><br></td>`
+:raw-html:`</tr>`
+:raw-html:`<tr>`
+:raw-html:`<td>Parameter area<br><br></td>`
+:raw-html:`</tr>`

+:raw-html:`</tr>`
+:raw-html:`<tr>`
+:raw-html:`<td>Previous Frame<br><br></td>`
+:raw-html:`</tr>`
+:raw-html:`</table>`
+
+The *linkage* area is used by a callee to save special registers prior to
+allocating its own frame. Only three entries are relevant to LLVM. The first
+entry is the previous stack pointer (sp), aka link. This allows probing tools
+like gdb or exception handlers to quickly scan the frames in the stack. A
+function epilog can also use the link to pop the frame from the stack. The
+third entry in the linkage area is used to save the return address from the lr
+register. Finally, as mentioned above, the last entry is used to save the
+previous frame pointer (r31.) The entries in the linkage area are the size of a
+GPR, thus the linkage area is 24 bytes long in 32 bit mode and 48 bytes in 64
+bit mode.

+
+The *parameter area* is used to store arguments being passed to a callee
+function. Following the PowerPC ABI, the first few arguments are actually
+passed in registers, with the space in the parameter area unused. However, if
+there are not enough registers or the callee is a thunk or vararg function,
+these register arguments can be spilled into the parameter area. Thus, the
+parameter area must be large enough to store all the parameters for the largest
+call sequence made by the caller. The size must also be minimally large enough
+to spill registers r3-r10. This allows callees blind to the call signature,
+such as thunks and vararg functions, enough space to cache the argument
+registers. Therefore, the parameter area is minimally 32 bytes (64 bytes in 64
+bit mode.) Also note that since the parameter area is a fixed offset from the
+top of the frame, that a callee can access its spilt arguments using fixed
+offsets from the stack pointer (or base pointer.)
+
+Combining the information about the linkage, parameter areas and alignment. A
+stack frame is minimally 64 bytes in 32 bit mode and 128 bytes in 64 bit mode.
+
+The *dynamic area* starts out as size zero. If a function uses dynamic alloca
+then space is added to the stack, the linkage and parameter areas are shifted to
+top of stack, and the new space is available immediately below the linkage and
+parameter areas. The cost of shifting the linkage and parameter areas is minor
+since only the link value needs to be copied. The link value can be easily
+fetched by adding the original frame size to the base pointer. Note that
+allocations in the dynamic space need to observe 16 byte alignment.
+
+The *locals area* is where the llvm compiler reserves space for local variables.
+
+The *saved registers area* is where the llvm compiler spills callee saved
+registers on entry to the callee.
+
+Prolog/Epilog
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The llvm prolog and epilog are the same as described in the PowerPC ABI, with
+the following exceptions. Callee saved registers are spilled after the frame is
+created. This allows the llvm epilog/prolog support to be common with other
+targets. The base pointer callee saved register r31 is saved in the TOC slot of
+linkage area. This simplifies allocation of space for the base pointer and
+makes it convenient to locate programmatically and during debugging.
+
+Dynamic Allocation
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. note::

+ TODO - More to come.
+
+The NVPTX backend
+-----------------
+
+The NVPTX code generator under lib/Target/NVPTX is an open-source version of
+the NVIDIA NVPTX code generator for LLVM. It is contributed by NVIDIA and is
+a port of the code generator used in the CUDA compiler (nvcc). It targets the
+PTX 3.0/3.1 ISA and can target any compute capability greater than or equal to
+2.0 (Fermi).
+
+This target is of production quality and should be completely compatible with
+the official NVIDIA toolchain.

+
+The extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) backend
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+Extended BPF (or eBPF) is similar to the original ("classic") BPF (cBPF) used
+to filter network packets. The
+`bpf() system call <http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/bpf.2.html>`_
+performs a range of operations related to eBPF. For both cBPF and eBPF
+programs, the Linux kernel statically analyzes the programs before loading
+them, in order to ensure that they cannot harm the running system. eBPF is
+a 64-bit RISC instruction set designed for one to one mapping to 64-bit CPUs.
+Opcodes are 8-bit encoded, and 87 instructions are defined. There are 10
+registers, grouped by function as outlined below.
+
+::
+
+ R0 return value from in-kernel functions; exit value for eBPF program
+ R1 - R5 function call arguments to in-kernel functions
+ R6 - R9 callee-saved registers preserved by in-kernel functions
+ R10 stack frame pointer (read only)
+
+Instruction encoding (arithmetic and jump)
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+eBPF is reusing most of the opcode encoding from classic to simplify conversion
+of classic BPF to eBPF. For arithmetic and jump instructions the 8-bit 'code'
+field is divided into three parts:
+
+::
+
+ +----------------+--------+--------------------+
+ | 4 bits | 1 bit | 3 bits |
+ | operation code | source | instruction class |
+ +----------------+--------+--------------------+
+ (MSB) (LSB)
+
+Three LSB bits store instruction class which is one of:
+
+::
+
+ BPF_LD 0x0
+ BPF_LDX 0x1
+ BPF_ST 0x2
+ BPF_STX 0x3
+ BPF_ALU 0x4
+ BPF_JMP 0x5
+ (unused) 0x6
+ BPF_ALU64 0x7
+
+When BPF_CLASS(code) == BPF_ALU or BPF_ALU64 or BPF_JMP,
+4th bit encodes source operand
+
+::
+
+ BPF_X 0x0 use src_reg register as source operand
+ BPF_K 0x1 use 32 bit immediate as source operand
+
+and four MSB bits store operation code
+
+::
+
+ BPF_ADD 0x0 add
+ BPF_SUB 0x1 subtract
+ BPF_MUL 0x2 multiply
+ BPF_DIV 0x3 divide
+ BPF_OR 0x4 bitwise logical OR
+ BPF_AND 0x5 bitwise logical AND
+ BPF_LSH 0x6 left shift
+ BPF_RSH 0x7 right shift (zero extended)
+ BPF_NEG 0x8 arithmetic negation
+ BPF_MOD 0x9 modulo
+ BPF_XOR 0xa bitwise logical XOR
+ BPF_MOV 0xb move register to register
+ BPF_ARSH 0xc right shift (sign extended)
+ BPF_END 0xd endianness conversion
+
+If BPF_CLASS(code) == BPF_JMP, BPF_OP(code) is one of
+
+::
+
+ BPF_JA 0x0 unconditional jump
+ BPF_JEQ 0x1 jump ==
+ BPF_JGT 0x2 jump >
+ BPF_JGE 0x3 jump >=
+ BPF_JSET 0x4 jump if (DST & SRC)
+ BPF_JNE 0x5 jump !=
+ BPF_JSGT 0x6 jump signed >
+ BPF_JSGE 0x7 jump signed >=
+ BPF_CALL 0x8 function call
+ BPF_EXIT 0x9 function return
+
+Instruction encoding (load, store)
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+For load and store instructions the 8-bit 'code' field is divided as:
+
+::
+
+ +--------+--------+-------------------+
+ | 3 bits | 2 bits | 3 bits |
+ | mode | size | instruction class |
+ +--------+--------+-------------------+
+ (MSB) (LSB)
+
+Size modifier is one of
+
+::
+
+ BPF_W 0x0 word
+ BPF_H 0x1 half word
+ BPF_B 0x2 byte
+ BPF_DW 0x3 double word
+
+Mode modifier is one of
+
+::
+
+ BPF_IMM 0x0 immediate
+ BPF_ABS 0x1 used to access packet data
+ BPF_IND 0x2 used to access packet data
+ BPF_MEM 0x3 memory
+ (reserved) 0x4
+ (reserved) 0x5
+ BPF_XADD 0x6 exclusive add
+
+
+Packet data access (BPF_ABS, BPF_IND)
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Two non-generic instructions: (BPF_ABS | <size> | BPF_LD) and
+(BPF_IND | <size> | BPF_LD) which are used to access packet data.
+Register R6 is an implicit input that must contain pointer to sk_buff.
+Register R0 is an implicit output which contains the data fetched
+from the packet. Registers R1-R5 are scratch registers and must not
+be used to store the data across BPF_ABS | BPF_LD or BPF_IND | BPF_LD
+instructions. These instructions have implicit program exit condition
+as well. When eBPF program is trying to access the data beyond
+the packet boundary, the interpreter will abort the execution of the program.
+
+BPF_IND | BPF_W | BPF_LD is equivalent to:
+ R0 = ntohl(\*(u32 \*) (((struct sk_buff \*) R6)->data + src_reg + imm32))
+
+eBPF maps
+^^^^^^^^^
+
+eBPF maps are provided for sharing data between kernel and user-space.
+Currently implemented types are hash and array, with potential extension to
+support bloom filters, radix trees, etc. A map is defined by its type,
+maximum number of elements, key size and value size in bytes. eBPF syscall
+supports create, update, find and delete functions on maps.
+
+Function calls
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Function call arguments are passed using up to five registers (R1 - R5).
+The return value is passed in a dedicated register (R0). Four additional
+registers (R6 - R9) are callee-saved, and the values in these registers
+are preserved within kernel functions. R0 - R5 are scratch registers within
+kernel functions, and eBPF programs must therefor store/restore values in
+these registers if needed across function calls. The stack can be accessed
+using the read-only frame pointer R10. eBPF registers map 1:1 to hardware
+registers on x86_64 and other 64-bit architectures. For example, x86_64
+in-kernel JIT maps them as
+
+::
+
+ R0 - rax
+ R1 - rdi
+ R2 - rsi
+ R3 - rdx
+ R4 - rcx
+ R5 - r8
+ R6 - rbx
+ R7 - r13
+ R8 - r14
+ R9 - r15
+ R10 - rbp
+
+since x86_64 ABI mandates rdi, rsi, rdx, rcx, r8, r9 for argument passing
+and rbx, r12 - r15 are callee saved.
+
+Program start
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+An eBPF program receives a single argument and contains
+a single eBPF main routine; the program does not contain eBPF functions.
+Function calls are limited to a predefined set of kernel functions. The size
+of a program is limited to 4K instructions: this ensures fast termination and
+a limited number of kernel function calls. Prior to running an eBPF program,
+a verifier performs static analysis to prevent loops in the code and
+to ensure valid register usage and operand types.
+
+The AMDGPU backend
+------------------
+
+The AMDGPU code generator lives in the ``lib/Target/AMDGPU``
+directory. This code generator is capable of targeting a variety of
+AMD GPU processors. Refer to :doc:`AMDGPUUsage` for more information.

-llc - LLVM static compiler
-==========================
-
-SYNOPSIS
---------
-
-:program:`llc` [*options*] [*filename*]
-
-DESCRIPTION
------------
-
-The :program:`llc` command compiles LLVM source inputs into assembly language
-for a specified architecture. The assembly language output can then be passed
-through a native assembler and linker to generate a native executable.
-
-The choice of architecture for the output assembly code is automatically
-determined from the input file, unless the :option:`-march` option is used to
-override the default.
-
-OPTIONS
--------
-
-If ``filename`` is "``-``" or omitted, :program:`llc` reads from standard input.
-Otherwise, it will from ``filename``. Inputs can be in either the LLVM assembly
-language format (``.ll``) or the LLVM bitcode format (``.bc``).
-
-If the :option:`-o` option is omitted, then :program:`llc` will send its output
-to standard output if the input is from standard input. If the :option:`-o`
-option specifies "``-``", then the output will also be sent to standard output.
-
-If no :option:`-o` option is specified and an input file other than "``-``" is
-specified, then :program:`llc` creates the output filename by taking the input
-filename, removing any existing ``.bc`` extension, and adding a ``.s`` suffix.
-
-Other :program:`llc` options are described below.
-
-End-user Options
