For BBs that are targets of CBZ/CBNZ instructions, we know the value of // the CBZ/CBNZ source register is zero on the taken/not-taken path. For // instance, the copy instruction in the code below can be removed because // the CBZW jumps to %bb.2 when w0 is zero. // // %bb.1: // cbz w0, .LBB0_2 // .LBB0_2: // mov w0, wzr ; <-- redundant // // 2. If the flag setting instruction defines a register other than WZR/XZR, we // can remove a zero copy in some cases. // // %bb.0: // subs w0, w1, w2 // str w0, [x1] // b.ne .LBB0_2 // %bb.1: // mov w0, wzr ; <-- redundant // str w0, [x2] // .LBB0_2 // // 3. Finally, if the flag setting instruction is a comparison against a // constant (i.e., ADDS[W|X]ri, SUBS[W|X]ri), we can remove a mov immediate // in some cases. // // %bb.0: // subs xzr, x0, #1 // b.eq .LBB0_1 // .LBB0_1: // orr x0, xzr, #0x1 ; <-- redundant // // This pass should be run after register allocation. // // FIXME: This could also be extended to check the whole dominance subtree below // the comparison if the compile time regression is acceptable. // // FIXME: Add support for handling CCMP instructions. // FIXME: If the known register value is zero, we should be able to rewrite uses // to use WZR/XZR directly in some cases. //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// #include "AArch64.h" #include "llvm/ADT/SetVector.h" #include "llvm/ADT/Statistic.h" #include "llvm/ADT/iterator_range.h" #include "llvm/CodeGen/LiveRegUnits.h" #include "llvm/CodeGen/MachineFunctionPass.h" #include "llvm/CodeGen/MachineRegisterInfo.h" #include "llvm/Support/Debug.h" using namespace llvm; #define DEBUG_TYPE "aarch64-copyelim" STATISTIC(NumCopiesRemoved, "Number of copies removed."); namespace { class AArch64RedundantCopyElimination : public MachineFunctionPass { const MachineRegisterInfo *MRI; const TargetRegisterInfo *TRI; // DomBBClobberedRegs is used when computing known values in the dominating // BB.
