RISC-V: improve codegen for repeating large constants [3]
Checks
Commit Message
Ran into a minor snafu in const splitting code when playing with test
case from an old PR/23813.
long long f(void) { return 0xF0F0F0F0F0F0F0F0ull; }
This currently generates
li a5,-252645376
addi a5,a5,241
li a0,-252645376
slli a5,a5,32
addi a0,a0,240
add a0,a5,a0
ret
The signed math in hival extraction introduces an additional bit,
causing loval == hival check to fail.

Fix that by eliding the subtraction in shift.

gcc/ChangeLog:
* config/riscv/riscv.cc (riscv_split_integer): hival computation
do elide subtraction of loval.
* (riscv_split_integer_cost): Ditto.
* (riscv_build_integer): Ditto

I wasn't planning to do any more work on large const stuff, but just ran into it this
on a random BZ entry when trying search for redundant constant stuff.
The test seemed too good to pass :-)

FWIW (and I missed adding this observation to the changelog) I pondered
about using unsigned loval/hival with zext_hwi() but that in certain
cases can cause additional insns
e.g. constant 0x8000_0000 is codegen to LI 1 +SLLI 31 vs, LI
0xFFFFFFFF_80000000

I don't believe this is correct; the subtraction is needed to account
for the fact that the low part might be negative, resulting in a
borrow from the high part. See the output for your test case below:
$ cat test.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
unsigned long result, tmp;
asm (
"li %1,-252645376\n"
"addi %1,%1,240\n"
"slli %0,%1,32\n"
"add %0,%0,%1"
: "=r" (result), "=r" (tmp));
printf("%lx\n", result);
return 0;
}
$ riscv64-unknown-elf-gcc -O2 test.c
$ spike pk a.out
bbl loader

Thx for the quick feedback Andew. I'm clearly lacking in signed math :-(
So is it possible to have a better code seq for the testcase at all ?

You're welcome!
When Zba is implemented, then inserting a zext.w would do the trick;
see below. (The generalization is that the zext.w is needed if the
32-bit constant is negative.) When Zba is not implemented, I think
the original sequence is optimal.
li a5, -252645376
addi a5, a5, 240
slli a0, a5, 32
zext.w a5, a5
add a0, a0, a5

For the non-Zba case, I think we can leverage the two high parts
starting out the same to save an instruction generating the constant.
So for the original code sequence of
li a5,-252645376
addi a5,a5,241
li a0,-252645376
slli a5,a5,32
addi a0,a0,240
add a0,a5,a0
ret
we could instead generate
li a5,-252645376
addi a0,a5,240
addi a5,a5,241
slli a5,a5,32
add a0,a5,a0
ret
which IIUC produces the same result. I think something along the lines
of this (with the corresponding cost function updates) would do it
diff --git a/gcc/config/riscv/riscv.cc b/gcc/config/riscv/riscv.cc

though I suppose that would produce a slightly different sequence that has the
same number of instructions but a slightly longer dependency chain, something
more like
li a5,-252645376
addi a5,a5,241
addi a0,a5,-1
slli a5,a5,32
add a0,a5,a0
ret
Take that all with a grain of salt, though, as I just ate some very spicy
chicken and can barely see straight :)

Yeah, that might end up being a false economy for superscalars.
In general, I wouldn't recommend spending too many cleverness beans on
non-Zba+Zbb implementations. Going forward, we should expect that
even very simple cores provide those extensions.

I suspect you under-estimate how difficult it is to get the distros to
move forward on baseline ISAs.

Ya, we haven't even gotten to the point where most implementations are
shipping with the B extensions, much less to the point where we can
start ignoring all the pre-B hardware.
