No. forward() is working correctly. All virtual register references must be resolved before calling it. -Jim On Feb 5, 2013, at 4:05 PM, Reed Kotler <rkotler at mips.com> wrote: > So what I realized is that you can't use the simple scavenger trick where you create the virtual register and use the more advanced features. > > This is because you can't call forward() in any

In that case it tries to do something but fails. rkotler at ubuntu-rkotler:~/testmips16$ /home/rkotler/llvmw/install/bin/bugpoint casts.bc -llc-safe --safe-tool-args -target=mips-linux-gnu -mcpu=mips16 -mips16-constant-islands Read input file : 'casts.bc' *** All input ok Initializing execution environment: Found llc: /home/rkotler/llvmw/install/bin/llc Running the code

So what I realized is that you can't use the simple scavenger trick where you create the virtual register and use the more advanced features. This is because you can't call forward() in any form if there are virtual registers being used by any of the instructions in the basic block. This will cause forward to fail. Maybe this is a bug in forward() On 02/05/2013 02:51 PM, Reed Kotler

Turned out to be a rather simple fix. Just copied SP to a virtual register in the beginning of the function. Then added an extra operand to the DAGs with stack reference load/store, with the extra operand equal to this virtual register if the Parent of the address is a LOAD/STORE of an 8 or 16 bit quantity. It worked fine. When needed SP got copied to a mips 16 register and when the SP alias

Actually, SP is already not in the mips 16 register class but there is some C++ code that is common to mips32, mips64 and mips16 that is wanting to use SP. It's kind of awkward but does work except in this case of load/store haflword and byte to stack objects. Maybe I'm shooting myself in the foot there. I don't know that code too well so maybe I need to look into it. There are

Reed, It's not clear to me that you need to do anything special here. If you define your MIPS16 register class as not containing SP, then any MIPS16 instructions that get selected and want to read from SP should get a COPY inserted from SP to a MIPS16 vreg. The coalescer should, ideally, get rid of extraneous copies for you. --Owen On Sep 20, 2012, at 10:48 PM, Reed Kotler <rkotler at

This is my first time using bugpoint.

So I have dual mode 16/32 compilation on a per function basis working. I need to clean up some things and then will push the change. I managed to do everything without needing to change anything in target independent code thus far. It was a fun puzzle to solve as to how to do this using only the given APIs. As for the BasicTransformInfoPassass, for this dual mode I'm using

Ok. That's a somewhat different problem, then. Devil will be in the details of what you want to do. A few options. First is to always have a standard frame pointer register available and reference off of that. Caveat: dynamic stack realignment and vararrays muck with that more than a bit. Second is what gcc is doing and reserve a register just for this in addition to the frame register.

We are starting to look at the mips16 and micro mips ports. There are various design issues that people may have some good input on. Especially in how to structure the TD files and other optimizer issues. Mips16 is sort of like thumb and Micro Mips like thumb2 as far as I understand. Mips16 or Micro Mips can live inside of either MIPS32 or MIPS64. In gcc, it's possible using attributes to
