Hi all,
I'm trying to create a new backend for a processor, and I start with
modifying the existing backends like MIPS and Microblaze.
I have a problem when I try to add a register class in the Target's register
description, it looks like this:
def IGPRegs : RegisterClass<"MBlaze", [v8i16], 128, [PR0, PR1,
PR2, PR3]>;
// PR0 - PR3 are registers defined before
I want to have a new integer register file for a different type, e.g. v8i16.
But then I got errors when running tblgen.
Here is the error I got when modifying the MBlaze backend:
BSLLI: (set CPURegs:i32:$dst, (shl:i32 CPURegs:i32:$b,
(imm:{i32:v8i16})<<P:Predicate_immZExt5>>:$c))
../../../bin/tblgen: error:
Included from .../llvm/lib/Target/MBlaze/MBlaze.td:25:
.../llvm/lib/Target/MBlaze/MBlazeInstrInfo.td:347:5: error: In BSLLI: Could
not infer all types in pattern!
def BSLLI : ArithI<0x11, "bslli ", shl, uimm5, immZExt5>;
^
It seems that defining a new register class changes how the tblgen infers
the types in the DAG patterns.
So what is the right way to add a register class for a different type?
