While working on a middle-end patch to more aggressively use highpart
multiplications on targets that support them, I noticed that the RTL
expanded by the x86 backend interacts poorly with register allocation
leading to suboptimal code.
For the testcase,
typedef int __attribute ((mode(TI))) ti_t;
long foo(long x)
{
return ((ti_t)x * 19065) >> 64;
}
we'd like to avoid:
foo: movq %rdi, %rax
movl $19065, %edx
imulq %rdx
movq %rdx, %rax
ret
and would prefer:
foo: movl $19065, %eax
imulq %rdi
movq %rdx, %rax
ret
This patch provides a pair of peephole2 transformations to tweak the
spills generated by reload, and at the same time replaces the current
define_expand with a define_insn pattern using the new [su]mul_highpart
RTX codes.
