hi, Recently working on LLVM Target Scheduler Target Description file, I have a question on InstrStage Class.
As shown on Scheduler Tutorial, it says
"/// { 2, x|y, 1 }
/// indicates that the stage occupies either FU x or FU y for 2
/// consecutive cycles and that the next stage starts one cycle
/// after this stage starts. That is, the stage requirements
/// overlap in time."
If I understood right, this mean that this instruction takes 2 cycles to complete.
After first cycle passes, the another instruction (which has same InstrItinClass name) can be in this stage.
My questions are:
1. Am I understanding in right way?
2. What does the FuncUnit means in this case? Does this mean a module such as ALU, FPU?
3. when I set third operand as 0, this mean the instruction can start simultaneously?
P.S. Always thanks LLVM Community for giving warm kind knowledge.
