  Hi,

As PR106345 shows, some test cases should be updated with
-mdejagnu-tune, since their test points are sensitive to
rs6000_tune, such as: group_ending_nop, loop align (ic),
float conversion cost etc.

This patch is to replace -mdejagnu-cpu with -mdejagnu-tune
or append -mdejagnu-tune (keep the original -mdejagnu-cpu
when it's required) accordingly.

Tested on powerpc64-linux-gnu P7 and P8 and
powerpc64le-linux-gnu P9 and P10, also with explicit p10
tune setting for configuration.

I'll push this soon if no objections.

BR,
Kewen

It does not make sense to require -mdejagnu-tune= if -mdejagnu-cpu= is
already given?  What is the failure case?

It is *always* required.  Testcases with -mtune= but unspecified -mcpu=
make no sense.

This should only make a difference if you have -mtune= in your
RUNTEST_FLAGS, and you shouldn't do silly things like that.  I suspect
you see it in other cases, and those are actual bugs then, that need
actual fixing instead of sweeping under the carper.

The testcase suggests this is with a compiler configured with
--with-cpu= --with-tune=, which should just work, and -mcpu= should
override both of those!

I think cpu setting only sets tune setting when tune setting isn't
explicitly provided as:

  if (rs6000_tune_index >= 0)
    tune_index = rs6000_tune_index;
  else if (cpu_index >= 0)
    rs6000_tune_index = tune_index = cpu_index;

As PR106345 shows, GCC can use an explicit tune setting when it's
configured, even if there is one "-mdejagnu-cpu=", it doesn't
override the explicit given one, so we need one explicit
"-mdejagnu-tune=".

One failure example is gcc.target/powerpc/loop_align.c

See function rs6000_loop_align:

/* Implement LOOP_ALIGN. */
align_flags
rs6000_loop_align (rtx label)
{

...

  /* Align small loops to 32 bytes to fit in an icache sector, otherwise return default. */
  if (ninsns > 4 && ninsns <= 8
      && (rs6000_tune == PROCESSOR_POWER4
	  || rs6000_tune == PROCESSOR_POWER5
	  || rs6000_tune == PROCESSOR_POWER6
	  || rs6000_tune == PROCESSOR_POWER7
	  || rs6000_tune == PROCESSOR_POWER8))
    return align_flags (5);
  else
    return align_loops;

Although the test case has adopted option "-mdejagnu-cpu=power7", but
the configured "--with-tune-64=power9" takes effect and make it
return align_loops instead of align_flags (5).

The loop_align.c testings made me think if we know the insn count for
the loop on all cpus is in range (4,8] then the cpu setting doesn't matter.

I think I get your point, it's risky to assume that even if it works
for all existing cpus, will update with an explicit -mdejagnu-cpu here.

Unfortunately it's due to the explicit tune setting in configuration.

Unfortunately -mcpu= (-mdejagnu-cpu=) doesn't actually override here.

And that is the problem.  GCC's automatic setting is *not* an explicit
option, not given by the user.  --with-tune= should not result in adding
an -mtune= option in the resulting compiler, it should not set command-
line options.

And it should not do that.

Sure, it probably works without -mcpu=, but it does not make sense :-)

Only using -mtune= while not having -mcpu= serves no purpose in any
"normal" use, so we shouldn't do that in the testsuite either.

So that needs some actual fixes.  Something in how --with-tune= works
is suboptimal?

... or that.

Currently, our rs6000.h has this:

/* Only for use in the testsuite: -mdejagnu-cpu= simply overrides -mcpu=.
   With older versions of Dejagnu the command line arguments you set in
   RUNTESTFLAGS override those set in the testcases; with this option,
   the testcase will always win.  Ditto for -mdejagnu-tune=.  */
#define DRIVER_SELF_SPECS \
  "%{mdejagnu-cpu=*: %<mcpu=* -mcpu=%*}", \
  "%{mdejagnu-tune=*: %<mtune=* -mtune=%*}", \
  "%{mdejagnu-*: %<mdejagnu-*}", \
   SUBTARGET_DRIVER_SELF_SPECS


This means -mdejagnu-cpu= usage will only filter out -mcpu= usage.
I guess it should also filter out all -mtune= usage as well.
That way, we'll tune according to the -mdejagnu-cpu= option which is
what we want.  That was an oversight on my part when I added the code. :-(

So I think the way the code above *should* work is:
  1) Any -mdejagnu-cpu= usage should filter out all -mcpu= and -mtune= options.
  2) Any -mdejagnu-tune= usage should filter all -mtune= options.
     It should not filter out any -mcpu= options.

I believe that should fix the issue we're seeing.

Thanks for the insightful comments and patch!

I confirmed that this proposed patch can fix those found test issues.

I adjusted the relevant comments and confirmed that it can be bootstrapped and
regtested on powerpc64-linux-gnu P7 and P8 and powerpc64le-linux-gnu P9 and P10.

Segher pre-approved it, I just committed it as r13-1818 as attached.

Will backport it to release branches in a week or so.  Thanks again.

Subject: [PATCH] rs6000: Adjust -mdejagnu-cpu to filter out -mtune [PR106345]

As PR106345 shows, when configuring compiler with an explicit
option --with-tune=<value>, it would cause some test cases to
fail if their test points are sensitive to tune setting, such
as: group_ending_nop, loop align etc.  It doesn't help that
even to specify one explicit -mcpu=.

This patch is to adjust the behavior of -mdejagnu-cpu by
filtering out all -mcpu= and -mtune= options, then test cases
would use <cpu> as tune as the one specified by -mdejagnu-cpu.

2022-07-25  Peter Bergner  <bergner@linux.ibm.com>
	    Kewen Lin  <linkw@linux.ibm.com>

	PR testsuite/106345

	* config/rs6000/rs6000.h (DRIVER_SELF_SPECS): Adjust -mdejagnu-cpu
	to filter out all -mtune options.
