SplitKit always computes a complement live range to cover the places
where the original live range was live, but no explicit region has been
allocated.
Currently, the complement live range is created to be as small as
possible - it never overlaps any of the regions. This minimizes
register pressure, but if the complement is going to be spilled anyway,
that is not very important. The spiller will eliminate redundant
spills, and hoist others by making the spill slot live range overlap
some of the regions created by splitting. Stack slots are cheap.
This patch adds the interface to enable spill modes in SplitKit. In
spill mode, SplitKit will assume that the complement is going to spill,
so it will allow it to overlap regions in order to avoid back-copies.
By doing some of the spiller's work early, the complement live range
becomes simpler. In some cases, it can become much simpler because no
extra PHI-defs are required. This will speed up both splitting and
spilling.
This is only the interface to enable spill modes, no implementation yet.

These functions are no longer used, and they are easily replaced with a
loop calling shouldSplitSingleBlock and splitSingleBlock.

Normally, we don't create a live range for a single instruction in a
basic block, the spiller does that anyway. However, when splitting a
live range that belongs to a proper register sub-class, inserting these
extra COPY instructions completely remove the constraints from the
remainder interval, and it may be allocated from the larger super-class.
The spiller will mop up these small live ranges if we end up spilling
anyway. It calls them snippets.

With a 'FirstDef' field right there, it is very confusing that FirstUse
refers to an instruction that may be a def.

This is either an invalid SlotIndex, or valno->def for the first value
defined inside the block. PHI values are not counted as defined inside
the block.
The FirstDef field will be used when estimating the cost of spilling
around a block.

This fixes PR10463. A two-address instruction with an <undef> use
operand was incorrectly rewritten so the def and use no longer used the
same register, violating the tie constraint.
Fix this by always rewriting <undef> operands with the register a def
operand would use.

If there is no interference and no last split point, we cannot
enterIntvBefore(Stop) - that function needs a real instruction.
Use enterIntvAtEnd instead for that very easy case.
This code doesn't currently run, it is needed by multi-way splitting.

When splitting a live range immediately before an LDR_POST instruction
that redefines the address register, make sure to use the correct value
number in leaveIntvBefore.
We need the value number entering the instruction.

This should unbreak the build-self-4-mingw32 tester. I have a very

This gets rid of some of the gory splitting details in RAGreedy and
makes them available to future SplitKit clients.
Slightly generalize the functionality to support multi-way splitting.
Specifically, SplitEditor::splitLiveThroughBlock() supports switching
between different register intervals in a block.

This patch will sometimes choose live range split points next to
interference instead of always splitting next to a register point. That
means spill code can now appear almost anywhere, and it was necessary
to fix code that didn't expect that.
The difficult places were:
- Between a CALL returning a value on the x87 stack and the
corresponding FpPOP_RETVAL (was FpGET_ST0). Probably also near x87
inline assembly, but that didn't actually show up in testing.
- Between a CALL popping arguments off the stack and the corresponding
ADJCALLSTACKUP.
Both are fixed now. The only place spill code can't appear is after
terminators, see SplitAnalysis::getLastSplitPoint.
Original commit message:
Rewrite RAGreedy::splitAroundRegion, now with cool ASCII art.
This function has to deal with a lot of special cases, and the old
version got it wrong sometimes. In particular, it would sometimes leave
multiple uses in the stack interval in a single block. That causes bad
code with multiple reloads in the same basic block.
The new version handles block entry and exit in a single pass. It first
eliminates all the easy cases, and then goes on to create a local
interval for the blocks with difficult interference. Previously, we
would only create the local interval for completely isolated blocks.
It can happen that the stack interval becomes completely empty because
we could allocate a register in all edge bundles, and the new local
intervals deal with the interference. The empty stack interval is
harmless, but we need to remove a SplitKit assertion that checks for
empty intervals.

Delete the Kill and Def markers in BlockInfo. They are no longer
necessary when BlockInfo describes a continuous live range.
This only affects the relatively rare kind of basic block where a live
range looks like this:
|---x o---|
Now live range splitting can pretend that it is looking at two blocks:
|---x
o---|
This allows the code to be simplified a bit.

It is important that this function returns the same number of live blocks as
countLiveBlocks(CurLI) because live range splitting uses the number of live
blocks to ensure it is making progress.
This is in preparation of supporting duplicate UseBlock entries for basic blocks
that have a virtual register live-in and live-out, but not live-though.

The previous invalidation missed the alias interference caches.
Also add a stats counter for the number of repaired ranges.

Register coalescing can sometimes create live ranges that end in the middle of a
basic block without any killing instruction. When SplitKit detects this, it will
repair the live range by shrinking it to its uses.
Live range splitting also needs to know about this. When the range shrinks so
much that it becomes allocatable, live range splitting fails because it can't
find a good split point. It is paranoid about making progress, so an allocatable
range is considered an error.
The coalescer should really not be creating these bad live ranges. They appear
when coalescing dead copies.
