I mean, OK... but keep in mind that Dehao's original email went out over a
week ago, so this patch has already been held up a while. As these
benchmarks aren't readily available, we also can't do anything to help
until a test case is posted.

Have you considered contributing these benchmarks to the LLVM test suite?

[llvm-dev] Enable vectorizer-maximize-bandwidth by default?

Attached the first reproducer of the Atom\SLM arch. degradation.  (~70%
degradation).
Chandler, those are part of EEMBC benchmarks.

[llvm-dev] Enable vectorizer-maximize-bandwidth by default?

Thanks for the testcase. Could you add some more details about the
regression?

* How to build/run the testcase to reproduce the degradation?
* Is the degradation only exist in ATOM/SLM arch? If yes, could you help
analyze why maximize the bandwidth would make performance worse (as we do
not have these arches to run the perf tests).

Thanks,
Dehao

[llvm-dev] Enable vectorizer-maximize-bandwidth by default?

Chandler> Have you considered contributing these benchmarks to the LLVM test
suite?

These benchmarks are not ours to contribute; they’re from the EEMBC standard,
whose availability is similar in nature to that of SPEC.

Guys, Just to clarify that with the current fix in SLM there is no need to wait
for other issues to be fixed (minor issue).
So you can move on with your patch.

Chandler> Have you considered contributing these benchmarks to the LLVM test
suite?

These benchmarks are not ours to contribute; they’re from the EEMBC standard,
whose availability is similar in nature to that of SPEC.

We’re seeing nice improvements but also significant degradations on IA, which we
would like to investigate before the patch is committed.

Major degradations we see:

networking
   ip_pktcheckb1m          -6.80 %
   ip_pktcheckb2m          -6.74 %
   ip_pktcheckb4m          -7.57 %
   ip_pktcheckb512k       -6.58 %
Telecom
   autcor00data_1          -78.02 %
   autcor00data_2          -76.80 %
   autcor00data_3          -77.00 %
(on Atom)

We still working on creating reproducers.
In general we support this patch, just want to have a chance to investigate the
issues. We need a few days for that.

I mean, OK... but keep in mind that Dehao's original email went out over a
week ago, so this patch has already been held up a while. As these benchmarks
aren't readily available, we also can't do anything to help until a test
case is posted.

Have you considered contributing these benchmarks to the LLVM test suite?

If you care about such hardware, please run benchmarks with the flag?

Dehao has made this flag available. It is important that those who care about
particular hardware provid ebenchmark results. Not everyone in the community
will have access to particular hardware variants.

Thank you for running these.

May I suggest testing on AVX2 capable hardware? That would be Intel Haswell, AMD
Carrizo and up.
I'm not sure what "vectorizer-maximize-bandwidth" implies, but
doubling the vector lanes may help light up parallel regions.

I will run it on Cyclone/AArch64 next week.

FYI, we're still waiting on these Adam...
