[LLVMdev] How to partition registers into different RegisterClass?

Hope I understand you correctly:

def C0 : ConstFpReg<0, "c0">;
...
def C200 : ConstFpReg<199, "c200">;

def I0 : ConstIntReg<0, "i0">;
...
def I100 : ConstIntReg<100, "i100">;

def R0 : TempReg<0, "r0">;
def R32 : TempReg<31, "r32">;

def V0 : InputReg<0, "v0">;
..
def V10 : InputReg<9, "v10">;

def O0 : OutputReg<0, "o0">;
..
def O4 : OutputReg<4, "o4">;

def FloatingPointRC : RegisterClass<packed, 128, 
    [R0, R1, R2, ..., R32, 
     C0, C1, ..., C200,
     V0, ..., V10, 
     O1, O2, O3, O4]> {
  let Methods = [{
    iterator allocation_order_end(MachineFunction &MF) const {
      return end()-(4+10+200); // only TempReg can be allocated
  }];
}
     
def IntegerRC : RegisterClass<packed, 128, 
    [I0, I1, ..., I100]>;


And linearly assigning the read-only registers for each definition of them?
