Using the following example where live ranges of accumulators $vreg_acc0 and $vreg_acc1 conflict, MULT $vreg_acc0, $vreg_gpr0, $vreg_gpr1 MULT $vreg_acc1, $vreg_gpr2, $vreg_gpr3 (consumer of $vreg_acc1) (consumer of $vreg_acc0) if the register can create new virtual registers $vreg_gpr4 and $vreg_gpr5, I think spilling can be avoided: MULT $vreg_acc0, $vreg_gpr0, $vreg_gpr1 copy...

Once you create a virtual register with some register class, you must support spilling, reloading, and copying of that register class. The cross class spilling feature can make these things less...

Hi Jakob, I believe Hal is trying to enable register scavenger to find two (or more) registers that can be used as temporaries. One problem I see with this approach is that, if you use register scavenger during PEI, you will have to pessimistically set aside two emergency spill slots before you call scavengeRegister, even if it turns out you only need one. Having an extra stack slot might not be
