11 | A machine description has two parts: a file of instruction patterns | |
12 | (@file{.md} file) and a C header file of macro definitions. | |
13 | ||
14 | The @file{.md} file for a target machine contains a pattern for each | |
15 | instruction that the target machine supports (or at least each instruction | |
16 | that is worth telling the compiler about). It may also contain comments. | |
17 | A semicolon causes the rest of the line to be a comment, unless the semicolon | |
18 | is inside a quoted string. | |
19 | ||

52 | @node Overview |
53 | @section Overview of How the Machine Description is Used | |
54 | ||
55 | There are three main conversions that happen in the compiler: | |
56 | ||
57 | @enumerate | |
58 | ||
59 | @item | |
60 | The front end reads the source code and builds a parse tree. | |
61 | ||
62 | @item | |
63 | The parse tree is used to generate an RTL insn list based on named | |
64 | instruction patterns. | |
65 | ||
66 | @item | |
67 | The insn list is matched against the RTL templates to produce assembler | |
68 | code. | |
69 | ||
70 | @end enumerate | |
71 | ||
72 | For the generate pass, only the names of the insns matter, from either a | |
73 | named @code{define_insn} or a @code{define_expand}. The compiler will | |
74 | choose the pattern with the right name and apply the operands according | |
75 | to the documentation later in this chapter, without regard for the RTL | |
76 | template or operand constraints. Note that the names the compiler looks | |
d7d9c429 | 77 | for are hard-coded in the compiler---it will ignore unnamed patterns and |
55e4756f DD |
78 | patterns with names it doesn't know about, but if you don't provide a |
79 | named pattern it needs, it will abort. | |
80 | ||
81 | If a @code{define_insn} is used, the template given is inserted into the | |
82 | insn list. If a @code{define_expand} is used, one of three things | |
83 | happens, based on the condition logic. The condition logic may manually | |
84 | create new insns for the insn list, say via @code{emit_insn()}, and | |
aee96fe9 | 85 | invoke @code{DONE}. For certain named patterns, it may invoke @code{FAIL} to tell the |
55e4756f DD |
86 | compiler to use an alternate way of performing that task. If it invokes |
87 | neither @code{DONE} nor @code{FAIL}, the template given in the pattern | |
88 | is inserted, as if the @code{define_expand} were a @code{define_insn}. | |
89 | ||
90 | Once the insn list is generated, various optimization passes convert, | |
91 | replace, and rearrange the insns in the insn list. This is where the | |
92 | @code{define_split} and @code{define_peephole} patterns get used, for | |
93 | example. | |
94 | ||
95 | Finally, the insn list's RTL is matched up with the RTL templates in the | |
96 | @code{define_insn} patterns, and those patterns are used to emit the | |
97 | final assembly code. For this purpose, each named @code{define_insn} | |
98 | acts like it's unnamed, since the names are ignored. | |
99 | ||
03dda8e3 RK |
100 | @node Patterns |
101 | @section Everything about Instruction Patterns | |
102 | @cindex patterns | |
103 | @cindex instruction patterns | |
104 | ||
105 | @findex define_insn | |
106 | Each instruction pattern contains an incomplete RTL expression, with pieces | |
107 | to be filled in later, operand constraints that restrict how the pieces can | |
108 | be filled in, and an output pattern or C code to generate the assembler | |
109 | output, all wrapped up in a @code{define_insn} expression. | |
110 | ||
111 | A @code{define_insn} is an RTL expression containing four or five operands: | |
112 | ||
113 | @enumerate | |
114 | @item | |
115 | An optional name. The presence of a name indicate that this instruction | |
116 | pattern can perform a certain standard job for the RTL-generation | |
117 | pass of the compiler. This pass knows certain names and will use | |
118 | the instruction patterns with those names, if the names are defined | |
119 | in the machine description. | |
120 | ||
121 | The absence of a name is indicated by writing an empty string | |
122 | where the name should go. Nameless instruction patterns are never | |
123 | used for generating RTL code, but they may permit several simpler insns | |
124 | to be combined later on. | |
125 | ||
126 | Names that are not thus known and used in RTL-generation have no | |
127 | effect; they are equivalent to no name at all. | |
128 | ||
661cb0b7 RK |
129 | For the purpose of debugging the compiler, you may also specify a |
130 | name beginning with the @samp{*} character. Such a name is used only | |
131 | for identifying the instruction in RTL dumps; it is entirely equivalent | |
132 | to having a nameless pattern for all other purposes. | |
133 | ||
03dda8e3 RK |
134 | @item |
135 | The @dfn{RTL template} (@pxref{RTL Template}) is a vector of incomplete | |
136 | RTL expressions which show what the instruction should look like. It is | |
137 | incomplete because it may contain @code{match_operand}, | |
138 | @code{match_operator}, and @code{match_dup} expressions that stand for | |
139 | operands of the instruction. | |
140 | ||
141 | If the vector has only one element, that element is the template for the | |
142 | instruction pattern. If the vector has multiple elements, then the | |
143 | instruction pattern is a @code{parallel} expression containing the | |
144 | elements described. | |
145 | ||
146 | @item | |
147 | @cindex pattern conditions | |
148 | @cindex conditions, in patterns | |
149 | A condition. This is a string which contains a C expression that is | |
150 | the final test to decide whether an insn body matches this pattern. | |
151 | ||
152 | @cindex named patterns and conditions | |
153 | For a named pattern, the condition (if present) may not depend on | |
154 | the data in the insn being matched, but only the target-machine-type | |
155 | flags. The compiler needs to test these conditions during | |
156 | initialization in order to learn exactly which named instructions are | |
157 | available in a particular run. | |
158 | ||
159 | @findex operands | |
160 | For nameless patterns, the condition is applied only when matching an | |
161 | individual insn, and only after the insn has matched the pattern's | |
162 | recognition template. The insn's operands may be found in the vector | |
fde6d81f HPN |
163 | @code{operands}. For an insn where the condition has once matched, it |
164 | can't be used to control register allocation, for example by excluding | |
165 | certain hard registers or hard register combinations. | |
03dda8e3 RK |
166 | |
167 | @item | |
168 | The @dfn{output template}: a string that says how to output matching | |
169 | insns as assembler code. @samp{%} in this string specifies where | |
170 | to substitute the value of an operand. @xref{Output Template}. | |
171 | ||
172 | When simple substitution isn't general enough, you can specify a piece | |
173 | of C code to compute the output. @xref{Output Statement}. | |
174 | ||
175 | @item | |
176 | Optionally, a vector containing the values of attributes for insns matching | |
177 | this pattern. @xref{Insn Attributes}. | |

213 | |
214 | This is an instruction that sets the condition codes based on the value of | |
215 | a general operand. It has no condition, so any insn whose RTL description | |
216 | has the form shown may be handled according to this pattern. The name | |
217 | @samp{tstsi} means ``test a @code{SImode} value'' and tells the RTL generation | |
218 | pass that, when it is necessary to test such a value, an insn to do so | |
219 | can be constructed using this pattern. | |
220 | ||
221 | The output control string is a piece of C code which chooses which | |
222 | output template to return based on the kind of operand and the specific | |
223 | type of CPU for which code is being generated. | |
224 | ||
225 | @samp{"rm"} is an operand constraint. Its meaning is explained below. | |
226 | ||
227 | @node RTL Template | |
228 | @section RTL Template | |
229 | @cindex RTL insn template | |
230 | @cindex generating insns | |
231 | @cindex insns, generating | |
232 | @cindex recognizing insns | |
233 | @cindex insns, recognizing | |
234 | ||
235 | The RTL template is used to define which insns match the particular pattern | |
236 | and how to find their operands. For named patterns, the RTL template also | |
237 | says how to construct an insn from specified operands. | |
238 | ||
239 | Construction involves substituting specified operands into a copy of the | |
240 | template. Matching involves determining the values that serve as the | |
241 | operands in the insn being matched. Both of these activities are | |
242 | controlled by special expression types that direct matching and | |
243 | substitution of the operands. | |
244 | ||
245 | @table @code | |
246 | @findex match_operand | |
247 | @item (match_operand:@var{m} @var{n} @var{predicate} @var{constraint}) | |
248 | This expression is a placeholder for operand number @var{n} of | |
249 | the insn. When constructing an insn, operand number @var{n} | |
250 | will be substituted at this point. When matching an insn, whatever | |
251 | appears at this position in the insn will be taken as operand | |
252 | number @var{n}; but it must satisfy @var{predicate} or this instruction | |
253 | pattern will not match at all. | |
254 | ||
255 | Operand numbers must be chosen consecutively counting from zero in | |
256 | each instruction pattern. There may be only one @code{match_operand} | |
257 | expression in the pattern for each operand number. Usually operands | |
258 | are numbered in the order of appearance in @code{match_operand} | |
72938a4c MM |
259 | expressions. In the case of a @code{define_expand}, any operand numbers |
260 | used only in @code{match_dup} expressions have higher values than all | |
261 | other operand numbers. | |
03dda8e3 | 262 | |
e543e219 ZW |
263 | @var{predicate} is a string that is the name of a function that |
264 | accepts two arguments, an expression and a machine mode. | |
265 | @xref{Predicates}. During matching, the function will be called with | |
266 | the putative operand as the expression and @var{m} as the mode | |
267 | argument (if @var{m} is not specified, @code{VOIDmode} will be used, | |
268 | which normally causes @var{predicate} to accept any mode). If it | |
269 | returns zero, this instruction pattern fails to match. | |
270 | @var{predicate} may be an empty string; then it means no test is to be | |
271 | done on the operand, so anything which occurs in this position is | |
272 | valid. | |
03dda8e3 RK |
273 | |
274 | Most of the time, @var{predicate} will reject modes other than @var{m}---but | |
275 | not always. For example, the predicate @code{address_operand} uses | |
276 | @var{m} as the mode of memory ref that the address should be valid for. | |
277 | Many predicates accept @code{const_int} nodes even though their mode is | |
278 | @code{VOIDmode}. | |
279 | ||
280 | @var{constraint} controls reloading and the choice of the best register | |
281 | class to use for a value, as explained later (@pxref{Constraints}). | |
e543e219 | 282 | If the constraint would be an empty string, it can be omitted. |
03dda8e3 RK |
283 | |
284 | People are often unclear on the difference between the constraint and the | |
285 | predicate. The predicate helps decide whether a given insn matches the | |
286 | pattern. The constraint plays no role in this decision; instead, it | |
287 | controls various decisions in the case of an insn which does match. | |
288 | ||
03dda8e3 RK |
289 | @findex match_scratch |
290 | @item (match_scratch:@var{m} @var{n} @var{constraint}) | |
291 | This expression is also a placeholder for operand number @var{n} | |
292 | and indicates that operand must be a @code{scratch} or @code{reg} | |
293 | expression. | |
294 | ||
295 | When matching patterns, this is equivalent to | |
296 | ||
297 | @smallexample | |
298 | (match_operand:@var{m} @var{n} "scratch_operand" @var{pred}) | |
299 | @end smallexample | |
300 | ||
301 | but, when generating RTL, it produces a (@code{scratch}:@var{m}) | |
302 | expression. | |
303 | ||
304 | If the last few expressions in a @code{parallel} are @code{clobber} | |
305 | expressions whose operands are either a hard register or | |
306 | @code{match_scratch}, the combiner can add or delete them when | |
307 | necessary. @xref{Side Effects}. | |
308 | ||
309 | @findex match_dup | |
310 | @item (match_dup @var{n}) | |
311 | This expression is also a placeholder for operand number @var{n}. | |
312 | It is used when the operand needs to appear more than once in the | |
313 | insn. | |
314 | ||
315 | In construction, @code{match_dup} acts just like @code{match_operand}: | |
316 | the operand is substituted into the insn being constructed. But in | |
317 | matching, @code{match_dup} behaves differently. It assumes that operand | |
318 | number @var{n} has already been determined by a @code{match_operand} | |
319 | appearing earlier in the recognition template, and it matches only an | |
320 | identical-looking expression. | |
321 | ||
55e4756f DD |
322 | Note that @code{match_dup} should not be used to tell the compiler that |
323 | a particular register is being used for two operands (example: | |
324 | @code{add} that adds one register to another; the second register is | |
325 | both an input operand and the output operand). Use a matching | |
326 | constraint (@pxref{Simple Constraints}) for those. @code{match_dup} is for the cases where one | |
327 | operand is used in two places in the template, such as an instruction | |
328 | that computes both a quotient and a remainder, where the opcode takes | |
329 | two input operands but the RTL template has to refer to each of those | |
330 | twice; once for the quotient pattern and once for the remainder pattern. | |
331 | ||
03dda8e3 RK |
332 | @findex match_operator |
333 | @item (match_operator:@var{m} @var{n} @var{predicate} [@var{operands}@dots{}]) | |
334 | This pattern is a kind of placeholder for a variable RTL expression | |
335 | code. | |
336 | ||
337 | When constructing an insn, it stands for an RTL expression whose | |
338 | expression code is taken from that of operand @var{n}, and whose | |
339 | operands are constructed from the patterns @var{operands}. | |
340 | ||
341 | When matching an expression, it matches an expression if the function | |
342 | @var{predicate} returns nonzero on that expression @emph{and} the | |
343 | patterns @var{operands} match the operands of the expression. | |
344 | ||
345 | Suppose that the function @code{commutative_operator} is defined as | |
346 | follows, to match any expression whose operator is one of the | |
347 | commutative arithmetic operators of RTL and whose mode is @var{mode}: | |
348 | ||
349 | @smallexample | |
350 | int | |
ec8e098d | 351 | commutative_integer_operator (x, mode) |
03dda8e3 RK |
352 | rtx x; |
353 | enum machine_mode mode; | |
354 | @{ | |
355 | enum rtx_code code = GET_CODE (x); | |
356 | if (GET_MODE (x) != mode) | |
357 | return 0; | |
ec8e098d | 358 | return (GET_RTX_CLASS (code) == RTX_COMM_ARITH |
03dda8e3 RK |
359 | || code == EQ || code == NE); |
360 | @} | |
361 | @end smallexample | |
362 | ||
363 | Then the following pattern will match any RTL expression consisting | |
364 | of a commutative operator applied to two general operands: | |
365 | ||
366 | @smallexample | |
367 | (match_operator:SI 3 "commutative_operator" | |
368 | [(match_operand:SI 1 "general_operand" "g") | |
369 | (match_operand:SI 2 "general_operand" "g")]) | |
370 | @end smallexample | |
371 | ||
372 | Here the vector @code{[@var{operands}@dots{}]} contains two patterns | |
373 | because the expressions to be matched all contain two operands. | |
374 | ||
375 | When this pattern does match, the two operands of the commutative | |
376 | operator are recorded as operands 1 and 2 of the insn. (This is done | |
377 | by the two instances of @code{match_operand}.) Operand 3 of the insn | |
378 | will be the entire commutative expression: use @code{GET_CODE | |
379 | (operands[3])} to see which commutative operator was used. | |
380 | ||
381 | The machine mode @var{m} of @code{match_operator} works like that of | |
382 | @code{match_operand}: it is passed as the second argument to the | |
383 | predicate function, and that function is solely responsible for | |
384 | deciding whether the expression to be matched ``has'' that mode. | |
385 | ||
386 | When constructing an insn, argument 3 of the gen-function will specify | |
e979f9e8 | 387 | the operation (i.e.@: the expression code) for the expression to be |
03dda8e3 RK |
388 | made. It should be an RTL expression, whose expression code is copied |
389 | into a new expression whose operands are arguments 1 and 2 of the | |
390 | gen-function. The subexpressions of argument 3 are not used; | |
391 | only its expression code matters. | |
392 | ||
393 | When @code{match_operator} is used in a pattern for matching an insn, | |
394 | it usually best if the operand number of the @code{match_operator} | |
395 | is higher than that of the actual operands of the insn. This improves | |
396 | register allocation because the register allocator often looks at | |
397 | operands 1 and 2 of insns to see if it can do register tying. | |
398 | ||
399 | There is no way to specify constraints in @code{match_operator}. The | |
400 | operand of the insn which corresponds to the @code{match_operator} | |
401 | never has any constraints because it is never reloaded as a whole. | |
402 | However, if parts of its @var{operands} are matched by | |
403 | @code{match_operand} patterns, those parts may have constraints of | |
404 | their own. | |
405 | ||
406 | @findex match_op_dup | |
407 | @item (match_op_dup:@var{m} @var{n}[@var{operands}@dots{}]) | |
408 | Like @code{match_dup}, except that it applies to operators instead of | |
409 | operands. When constructing an insn, operand number @var{n} will be | |
410 | substituted at this point. But in matching, @code{match_op_dup} behaves | |
411 | differently. It assumes that operand number @var{n} has already been | |
412 | determined by a @code{match_operator} appearing earlier in the | |
413 | recognition template, and it matches only an identical-looking | |
414 | expression. | |

418 | This pattern is a placeholder for an insn that consists of a | |
419 | @code{parallel} expression with a variable number of elements. This | |
420 | expression should only appear at the top level of an insn pattern. | |
421 | ||
422 | When constructing an insn, operand number @var{n} will be substituted at | |
423 | this point. When matching an insn, it matches if the body of the insn | |
424 | is a @code{parallel} expression with at least as many elements as the | |
425 | vector of @var{subpat} expressions in the @code{match_parallel}, if each | |
426 | @var{subpat} matches the corresponding element of the @code{parallel}, | |
427 | @emph{and} the function @var{predicate} returns nonzero on the | |
428 | @code{parallel} that is the body of the insn. It is the responsibility | |
429 | of the predicate to validate elements of the @code{parallel} beyond | |
bd819a4a | 430 | those listed in the @code{match_parallel}. |
03dda8e3 RK |
431 | |
432 | A typical use of @code{match_parallel} is to match load and store | |
433 | multiple expressions, which can contain a variable number of elements | |
434 | in a @code{parallel}. For example, | |
03dda8e3 RK |
435 | |
436 | @smallexample | |
437 | (define_insn "" | |
438 | [(match_parallel 0 "load_multiple_operation" | |
439 | [(set (match_operand:SI 1 "gpc_reg_operand" "=r") | |
440 | (match_operand:SI 2 "memory_operand" "m")) | |
441 | (use (reg:SI 179)) | |
442 | (clobber (reg:SI 179))])] | |
443 | "" | |
444 | "loadm 0,0,%1,%2") | |
445 | @end smallexample | |
446 | ||
447 | This example comes from @file{a29k.md}. The function | |
9c34dbbf | 448 | @code{load_multiple_operation} is defined in @file{a29k.c} and checks |
03dda8e3 RK |
449 | that subsequent elements in the @code{parallel} are the same as the |
450 | @code{set} in the pattern, except that they are referencing subsequent | |
451 | registers and memory locations. | |
452 | ||
453 | An insn that matches this pattern might look like: | |
454 | ||
455 | @smallexample | |
456 | (parallel | |
457 | [(set (reg:SI 20) (mem:SI (reg:SI 100))) | |

477 | @cindex output templates | |
478 | @cindex operand substitution | |
479 | ||
480 | @cindex @samp{%} in template | |
481 | @cindex percent sign | |
482 | The @dfn{output template} is a string which specifies how to output the | |
483 | assembler code for an instruction pattern. Most of the template is a | |
484 | fixed string which is output literally. The character @samp{%} is used | |
485 | to specify where to substitute an operand; it can also be used to | |
486 | identify places where different variants of the assembler require | |
487 | different syntax. | |
488 | ||
489 | In the simplest case, a @samp{%} followed by a digit @var{n} says to output | |
490 | operand @var{n} at that point in the string. | |
491 | ||
492 | @samp{%} followed by a letter and a digit says to output an operand in an | |
493 | alternate fashion. Four letters have standard, built-in meanings described | |
494 | below. The machine description macro @code{PRINT_OPERAND} can define | |
495 | additional letters with nonstandard meanings. | |
496 | ||
497 | @samp{%c@var{digit}} can be used to substitute an operand that is a | |
498 | constant value without the syntax that normally indicates an immediate | |
499 | operand. | |
500 | ||
501 | @samp{%n@var{digit}} is like @samp{%c@var{digit}} except that the value of | |
502 | the constant is negated before printing. | |
503 | ||
504 | @samp{%a@var{digit}} can be used to substitute an operand as if it were a | |
505 | memory reference, with the actual operand treated as the address. This may | |
506 | be useful when outputting a ``load address'' instruction, because often the | |
507 | assembler syntax for such an instruction requires you to write the operand | |
508 | as if it were a memory reference. | |
509 | ||
510 | @samp{%l@var{digit}} is used to substitute a @code{label_ref} into a jump | |
511 | instruction. | |
512 | ||
513 | @samp{%=} outputs a number which is unique to each instruction in the | |
514 | entire compilation. This is useful for making local labels to be | |
515 | referred to more than once in a single template that generates multiple | |
516 | assembler instructions. | |
517 | ||
518 | @samp{%} followed by a punctuation character specifies a substitution that | |
519 | does not use an operand. Only one case is standard: @samp{%%} outputs a | |
520 | @samp{%} into the assembler code. Other nonstandard cases can be | |
521 | defined in the @code{PRINT_OPERAND} macro. You must also define | |
522 | which punctuation characters are valid with the | |
523 | @code{PRINT_OPERAND_PUNCT_VALID_P} macro. | |
524 | ||
525 | @cindex \ | |
526 | @cindex backslash | |
527 | The template may generate multiple assembler instructions. Write the text | |
528 | for the instructions, with @samp{\;} between them. | |
529 | ||
530 | @cindex matching operands | |
531 | When the RTL contains two operands which are required by constraint to match | |
532 | each other, the output template must refer only to the lower-numbered operand. | |
533 | Matching operands are not always identical, and the rest of the compiler | |
534 | arranges to put the proper RTL expression for printing into the lower-numbered | |
535 | operand. | |
536 | ||
537 | One use of nonstandard letters or punctuation following @samp{%} is to | |
538 | distinguish between different assembler languages for the same machine; for | |
539 | example, Motorola syntax versus MIT syntax for the 68000. Motorola syntax | |
540 | requires periods in most opcode names, while MIT syntax does not. For | |
541 | example, the opcode @samp{movel} in MIT syntax is @samp{move.l} in Motorola | |
542 | syntax. The same file of patterns is used for both kinds of output syntax, | |
543 | but the character sequence @samp{%.} is used in each place where Motorola | |
544 | syntax wants a period. The @code{PRINT_OPERAND} macro for Motorola syntax | |
545 | defines the sequence to output a period; the macro for MIT syntax defines | |
546 | it to do nothing. | |
547 | ||
548 | @cindex @code{#} in template | |
549 | As a special case, a template consisting of the single character @code{#} | |
550 | instructs the compiler to first split the insn, and then output the | |
551 | resulting instructions separately. This helps eliminate redundancy in the | |
552 | output templates. If you have a @code{define_insn} that needs to emit | |
553 | multiple assembler instructions, and there is an matching @code{define_split} | |
554 | already defined, then you can simply use @code{#} as the output template | |
555 | instead of writing an output template that emits the multiple assembler | |
556 | instructions. | |
557 | ||
558 | If the macro @code{ASSEMBLER_DIALECT} is defined, you can use construct | |
559 | of the form @samp{@{option0|option1|option2@}} in the templates. These | |
560 | describe multiple variants of assembler language syntax. | |
561 | @xref{Instruction Output}. | |

568 | ||
569 | Often a single fixed template string cannot produce correct and efficient | |
570 | assembler code for all the cases that are recognized by a single | |
571 | instruction pattern. For example, the opcodes may depend on the kinds of | |
572 | operands; or some unfortunate combinations of operands may require extra | |
573 | machine instructions. | |
574 | ||
575 | If the output control string starts with a @samp{@@}, then it is actually | |
576 | a series of templates, each on a separate line. (Blank lines and | |
577 | leading spaces and tabs are ignored.) The templates correspond to the | |
578 | pattern's constraint alternatives (@pxref{Multi-Alternative}). For example, | |
579 | if a target machine has a two-address add instruction @samp{addr} to add | |
580 | into a register and another @samp{addm} to add a register to memory, you | |
581 | might write this pattern: | |
582 | ||
583 | @smallexample | |
584 | (define_insn "addsi3" | |
585 | [(set (match_operand:SI 0 "general_operand" "=r,m") | |
586 | (plus:SI (match_operand:SI 1 "general_operand" "0,0") | |
587 | (match_operand:SI 2 "general_operand" "g,r")))] | |
588 | "" | |
589 | "@@ | |
590 | addr %2,%0 | |
591 | addm %2,%0") | |
592 | @end smallexample | |
593 | ||
594 | @cindex @code{*} in template | |
595 | @cindex asterisk in template | |
596 | If the output control string starts with a @samp{*}, then it is not an | |
597 | output template but rather a piece of C program that should compute a | |
598 | template. It should execute a @code{return} statement to return the | |
599 | template-string you want. Most such templates use C string literals, which | |
600 | require doublequote characters to delimit them. To include these | |
601 | doublequote characters in the string, prefix each one with @samp{\}. | |
602 | ||
0f40f9f7 ZW |
603 | If the output control string is written as a brace block instead of a |
604 | double-quoted string, it is automatically assumed to be C code. In that | |
605 | case, it is not necessary to put in a leading asterisk, or to escape the | |
606 | doublequotes surrounding C string literals. | |
607 | ||
03dda8e3 RK |
608 | The operands may be found in the array @code{operands}, whose C data type |
609 | is @code{rtx []}. | |
610 | ||
611 | It is very common to select different ways of generating assembler code | |
612 | based on whether an immediate operand is within a certain range. Be | |
613 | careful when doing this, because the result of @code{INTVAL} is an | |
614 | integer on the host machine. If the host machine has more bits in an | |
615 | @code{int} than the target machine has in the mode in which the constant | |
616 | will be used, then some of the bits you get from @code{INTVAL} will be | |
617 | superfluous. For proper results, you must carefully disregard the | |
618 | values of those bits. | |
619 | ||
620 | @findex output_asm_insn | |
621 | It is possible to output an assembler instruction and then go on to output | |
622 | or compute more of them, using the subroutine @code{output_asm_insn}. This | |
623 | receives two arguments: a template-string and a vector of operands. The | |
624 | vector may be @code{operands}, or it may be another array of @code{rtx} | |
625 | that you declare locally and initialize yourself. | |
626 | ||
627 | @findex which_alternative | |
628 | When an insn pattern has multiple alternatives in its constraints, often | |
629 | the appearance of the assembler code is determined mostly by which alternative | |
630 | was matched. When this is so, the C code can test the variable | |
631 | @code{which_alternative}, which is the ordinal number of the alternative | |
632 | that was actually satisfied (0 for the first, 1 for the second alternative, | |
633 | etc.). | |
634 | ||
635 | For example, suppose there are two opcodes for storing zero, @samp{clrreg} | |
636 | for registers and @samp{clrmem} for memory locations. Here is how | |
637 | a pattern could use @code{which_alternative} to choose between them: | |
638 | ||
639 | @smallexample | |
640 | (define_insn "" | |
641 | [(set (match_operand:SI 0 "general_operand" "=r,m") | |
642 | (const_int 0))] | |
643 | "" | |
0f40f9f7 | 644 | @{ |
03dda8e3 | 645 | return (which_alternative == 0 |
0f40f9f7 ZW |
646 | ? "clrreg %0" : "clrmem %0"); |
647 | @}) | |
03dda8e3 RK |
648 | @end smallexample |
649 | ||
650 | The example above, where the assembler code to generate was | |
651 | @emph{solely} determined by the alternative, could also have been specified | |
652 | as follows, having the output control string start with a @samp{@@}: | |
653 | ||
654 | @smallexample | |
655 | @group | |
656 | (define_insn "" | |

666 | @node Predicates | |
667 | @section Predicates | |
668 | @cindex predicates | |
669 | @cindex operand predicates | |
670 | @cindex operator predicates | |
671 | ||
672 | A predicate determines whether a @code{match_operand} or | |
673 | @code{match_operator} expression matches, and therefore whether the | |
674 | surrounding instruction pattern will be used for that combination of | |
675 | operands. GCC has a number of machine-independent predicates, and you | |
676 | can define machine-specific predicates as needed. By convention, | |
677 | predicates used with @code{match_operand} have names that end in | |
678 | @samp{_operand}, and those used with @code{match_operator} have names | |
679 | that end in @samp{_operator}. | |
680 | ||
681 | All predicates are Boolean functions (in the mathematical sense) of | |
682 | two arguments: the RTL expression that is being considered at that | |
683 | position in the instruction pattern, and the machine mode that the | |
684 | @code{match_operand} or @code{match_operator} specifies. In this | |
685 | section, the first argument is called @var{op} and the second argument | |
686 | @var{mode}. Predicates can be called from C as ordinary two-argument | |
687 | functions; this can be useful in output templates or other | |
688 | machine-specific code. | |
689 | ||
690 | Operand predicates can allow operands that are not actually acceptable | |
691 | to the hardware, as long as the constraints give reload the ability to | |
692 | fix them up (@pxref{Constraints}). However, GCC will usually generate | |
693 | better code if the predicates specify the requirements of the machine | |
694 | instructions as closely as possible. Reload cannot fix up operands | |
695 | that must be constants (``immediate operands''); you must use a | |
696 | predicate that allows only constants, or else enforce the requirement | |
697 | in the extra condition. | |
698 | ||
699 | @cindex predicates and machine modes | |
700 | @cindex normal predicates | |
701 | @cindex special predicates | |
702 | Most predicates handle their @var{mode} argument in a uniform manner. | |
703 | If @var{mode} is @code{VOIDmode} (unspecified), then @var{op} can have | |
704 | any mode. If @var{mode} is anything else, then @var{op} must have the | |
705 | same mode, unless @var{op} is a @code{CONST_INT} or integer | |
706 | @code{CONST_DOUBLE}. These RTL expressions always have | |
707 | @code{VOIDmode}, so it would be counterproductive to check that their | |
708 | mode matches. Instead, predicates that accept @code{CONST_INT} and/or | |
709 | integer @code{CONST_DOUBLE} check that the value stored in the | |
710 | constant will fit in the requested mode. | |
711 | ||
712 | Predicates with this behavior are called @dfn{normal}. | |
713 | @command{genrecog} can optimize the instruction recognizer based on | |
714 | knowledge of how normal predicates treat modes. It can also diagnose | |
715 | certain kinds of common errors in the use of normal predicates; for | |
716 | instance, it is almost always an error to use a normal predicate | |
717 | without specifying a mode. | |
718 | ||
719 | Predicates that do something different with their @var{mode} argument | |
720 | are called @dfn{special}. The generic predicates | |
721 | @code{address_operand} and @code{pmode_register_operand} are special | |
722 | predicates. @command{genrecog} does not do any optimizations or | |
723 | diagnosis when special predicates are used. | |

736 | These are the generic predicates available to all back ends. They are | |
737 | defined in @file{recog.c}. The first category of predicates allow | |
738 | only constant, or @dfn{immediate}, operands. | |
739 | ||
740 | @defun immediate_operand | |
741 | This predicate allows any sort of constant that fits in @var{mode}. | |
742 | It is an appropriate choice for instructions that take operands that | |
743 | must be constant. | |
744 | @end defun | |
745 | ||
746 | @defun const_int_operand | |
747 | This predicate allows any @code{CONST_INT} expression that fits in | |
748 | @var{mode}. It is an appropriate choice for an immediate operand that | |
749 | does not allow a symbol or label. | |
750 | @end defun | |
751 | ||
752 | @defun const_double_operand | |
753 | This predicate accepts any @code{CONST_DOUBLE} expression that has | |
754 | exactly @var{mode}. If @var{mode} is @code{VOIDmode}, it will also | |
755 | accept @code{CONST_INT}. It is intended for immediate floating point | |
756 | constants. | |
757 | @end defun | |
758 | ||
759 | @noindent | |
760 | The second category of predicates allow only some kind of machine | |
761 | register. | |
762 | ||
763 | @defun register_operand | |
764 | This predicate allows any @code{REG} or @code{SUBREG} expression that | |
765 | is valid for @var{mode}. It is often suitable for arithmetic | |
766 | instruction operands on a RISC machine. | |
767 | @end defun | |
768 | ||
769 | @defun pmode_register_operand | |
770 | This is a slight variant on @code{register_operand} which works around | |
771 | a limitation in the machine-description reader. | |
772 | ||
773 | @example | |
774 | (match_operand @var{n} "pmode_register_operand" @var{constraint}) | |
775 | @end example | |
776 | ||
777 | @noindent | |
778 | means exactly what | |
779 | ||
780 | @example | |
781 | (match_operand:P @var{n} "register_operand" @var{constraint}) | |
782 | @end example | |
783 | ||
784 | @noindent | |
785 | would mean, if the machine-description reader accepted @samp{:P} | |
786 | mode suffixes. Unfortunately, it cannot, because @code{Pmode} is an | |
787 | alias for some other mode, and might vary with machine-specific | |
788 | options. @xref{Misc}. | |
789 | @end defun | |
790 | ||
791 | @defun scratch_operand | |
792 | This predicate allows hard registers and @code{SCRATCH} expressions, | |
793 | but not pseudo-registers. It is used internally by @code{match_scratch}; | |
794 | it should not be used directly. | |
795 | @end defun | |
796 | ||
797 | @noindent | |
798 | The third category of predicates allow only some kind of memory reference. | |
799 | ||
800 | @defun memory_operand | |
801 | This predicate allows any valid reference to a quantity of mode | |
802 | @var{mode} in memory, as determined by the weak form of | |
803 | @code{GO_IF_LEGITIMATE_ADDRESS} (@pxref{Addressing Modes}). | |
804 | @end defun | |
805 | ||
806 | @defun address_operand | |
807 | This predicate is a little unusual; it allows any operand that is a | |
808 | valid expression for the @emph{address} of a quantity of mode | |
809 | @var{mode}, again determined by the weak form of | |
810 | @code{GO_IF_LEGITIMATE_ADDRESS}. To first order, if | |
811 | @samp{@w{(mem:@var{mode} (@var{exp}))}} is acceptable to | |
812 | @code{memory_operand}, then @var{exp} is acceptable to | |
813 | @code{address_operand}. Note that @var{exp} does not necessarily have | |
814 | the mode @var{mode}. | |
815 | @end defun | |
816 | ||
817 | @defun indirect_operand | |
818 | This is a stricter form of @code{memory_operand} which allows only | |
819 | memory references with a @code{general_operand} as the address | |
820 | expression. New uses of this predicate are discouraged, because | |
821 | @code{general_operand} is very permissive, so it's hard to tell what | |
822 | an @code{indirect_operand} does or does not allow. If a target has | |
823 | different requirements for memory operands for different instructions, | |
824 | it is better to define target-specific predicates which enforce the | |
825 | hardware's requirements explicitly. | |
826 | @end defun | |
827 | ||
828 | @defun push_operand | |
829 | This predicate allows a memory reference suitable for pushing a value | |
830 | onto the stack. This will be a @code{MEM} which refers to | |
831 | @code{stack_pointer_rtx}, with a side-effect in its address expression | |
832 | (@pxref{Incdec}); which one is determined by the | |
833 | @code{STACK_PUSH_CODE} macro (@pxref{Frame Layout}). | |
834 | @end defun | |
835 | ||
836 | @defun pop_operand | |
837 | This predicate allows a memory reference suitable for popping a value | |
838 | off the stack. Again, this will be a @code{MEM} referring to | |
839 | @code{stack_pointer_rtx}, with a side-effect in its address | |
840 | expression. However, this time @code{STACK_POP_CODE} is expected. | |
841 | @end defun | |
842 | ||
843 | @noindent | |
844 | The fourth category of predicates allow some combination of the above | |
845 | operands. | |
846 | ||
847 | @defun nonmemory_operand | |
848 | This predicate allows any immediate or register operand valid for @var{mode}. | |
849 | @end defun | |
850 | ||
851 | @defun nonimmediate_operand | |
852 | This predicate allows any register or memory operand valid for @var{mode}. | |

873 | @findex define_special_predicate | |
874 | ||
875 | Many machines have requirements for their operands that cannot be | |
876 | expressed precisely using the generic predicates. You can define | |
877 | additional predicates using @code{define_predicate} and | |
878 | @code{define_special_predicate} expressions. These expressions have | |
879 | three operands: | |
880 | ||
881 | @itemize @bullet | |
882 | @item | |
883 | The name of the predicate, as it will be referred to in | |
884 | @code{match_operand} or @code{match_operator} expressions. | |
885 | ||
886 | @item | |
887 | An RTL expression which evaluates to true if the predicate allows the | |
888 | operand @var{op}, false if it does not. This expression can only use | |
889 | the following RTL codes: | |
890 | ||
891 | @table @code | |
892 | @item MATCH_OPERAND | |
893 | When written inside a predicate expression, a @code{MATCH_OPERAND} | |
894 | expression evaluates to true if the predicate it names would allow | |
895 | @var{op}. The operand number and constraint are ignored. Due to | |
896 | limitations in @command{genrecog}, you can only refer to generic | |
897 | predicates and predicates that have already been defined. | |
898 | ||
899 | @item MATCH_CODE | |
900 | This expression has one operand, a string constant containing a | |
901 | comma-separated list of RTX code names (in lower case). It evaluates | |
902 | to true if @var{op} has any of the listed codes. | |
903 | ||
904 | @item MATCH_TEST | |
905 | This expression has one operand, a string constant containing a C | |
906 | expression. The predicate's arguments, @var{op} and @var{mode}, are | |
907 | available with those names in the C expression. The @code{MATCH_TEST} | |
908 | evaluates to true if the C expression evaluates to a nonzero value. | |
909 | @code{MATCH_TEST} expressions must not have side effects. | |
910 | ||
911 | @item AND | |
912 | @itemx IOR | |
913 | @itemx NOT | |
914 | @itemx IF_THEN_ELSE | |
915 | The basic @samp{MATCH_} expressions can be combined using these | |
916 | logical operators, which have the semantics of the C operators | |
917 | @samp{&&}, @samp{||}, @samp{!}, and @samp{@w{? :}} respectively. | |
918 | @end table | |
919 | ||
920 | @item | |
921 | An optional block of C code, which should execute | |
922 | @samp{@w{return true}} if the predicate is found to match and | |
923 | @samp{@w{return false}} if it does not. It must not have any side | |
924 | effects. The predicate arguments, @var{op} and @var{mode}, are | |
925 | available with those names. | |
926 | ||
927 | If a code block is present in a predicate definition, then the RTL | |
928 | expression must evaluate to true @emph{and} the code block must | |
929 | execute @samp{@w{return true}} for the predicate to allow the operand. | |
930 | The RTL expression is evaluated first; do not re-check anything in the | |
931 | code block that was checked in the RTL expression. | |
932 | @end itemize | |
933 | ||
934 | The program @command{genrecog} scans @code{define_predicate} and | |
935 | @code{define_special_predicate} expressions to determine which RTX | |
936 | codes are possibly allowed. You should always make this explicit in | |
937 | the RTL predicate expression, using @code{MATCH_OPERAND} and | |
938 | @code{MATCH_CODE}. | |
939 | ||
940 | Here is an example of a simple predicate definition, from the IA64 | |
941 | machine description: | |
942 | ||
943 | @smallexample | |
944 | @group | |
945 | ;; @r{True if @var{op} is a @code{SYMBOL_REF} which refers to the sdata section.} | |
946 | (define_predicate "small_addr_symbolic_operand" | |
947 | (and (match_code "symbol_ref") | |
948 | (match_test "SYMBOL_REF_SMALL_ADDR_P (op)"))) | |
949 | @end group | |
950 | @end smallexample | |
951 | ||
952 | @noindent | |
953 | And here is another, showing the use of the C block. | |
954 | ||
955 | @smallexample | |
956 | @group | |
957 | ;; @r{True if @var{op} is a register operand that is (or could be) a GR reg.} | |
958 | (define_predicate "gr_register_operand" | |
959 | (match_operand 0 "register_operand") | |
960 | @{ | |
961 | unsigned int regno; | |
962 | if (GET_CODE (op) == SUBREG) | |
963 | op = SUBREG_REG (op); | |
964 | ||
965 | regno = REGNO (op); | |
966 | return (regno >= FIRST_PSEUDO_REGISTER || GENERAL_REGNO_P (regno)); | |
967 | @}) | |
968 | @end group | |
969 | @end smallexample | |
970 | ||
971 | Predicates written with @code{define_predicate} automatically include | |
972 | a test that @var{mode} is @code{VOIDmode}, or @var{op} has the same | |
973 | mode as @var{mode}, or @var{op} is a @code{CONST_INT} or | |
974 | @code{CONST_DOUBLE}. They do @emph{not} check specifically for | |
975 | integer @code{CONST_DOUBLE}, nor do they test that the value of either | |
976 | kind of constant fits in the requested mode. This is because | |
977 | target-specific predicates that take constants usually have to do more | |
978 | stringent value checks anyway. If you need the exact same treatment | |
979 | of @code{CONST_INT} or @code{CONST_DOUBLE} that the generic predicates | |
980 | provide, use a @code{MATCH_OPERAND} subexpression to call | |
981 | @code{const_int_operand}, @code{const_double_operand}, or | |
982 | @code{immediate_operand}. | |
983 | ||
984 | Predicates written with @code{define_special_predicate} do not get any | |
985 | automatic mode checks, and are treated as having special mode handling | |
986 | by @command{genrecog}. | |
987 | ||
988 | The program @command{genpreds} is responsible for generating code to | |
989 | test predicates. It also writes a header file containing function | |
990 | declarations for all machine-specific predicates. It is not necessary | |
991 | to declare these predicates in @file{@var{cpu}-protos.h}. | |

1046 | @cindex simple constraints | |
1047 | ||
1048 | The simplest kind of constraint is a string full of letters, each of | |
1049 | which describes one kind of operand that is permitted. Here are | |
1050 | the letters that are allowed: | |
1051 | ||
1052 | @table @asis | |
88a56c2e HPN |
1053 | @item whitespace |
1054 | Whitespace characters are ignored and can be inserted at any position | |
1055 | except the first. This enables each alternative for different operands to | |
1056 | be visually aligned in the machine description even if they have different | |
1057 | number of constraints and modifiers. | |
1058 | ||
03dda8e3 RK |
1059 | @cindex @samp{m} in constraint |
1060 | @cindex memory references in constraints | |
1061 | @item @samp{m} | |
1062 | A memory operand is allowed, with any kind of address that the machine | |
1063 | supports in general. | |
1064 | ||
1065 | @cindex offsettable address | |
1066 | @cindex @samp{o} in constraint | |
1067 | @item @samp{o} | |
1068 | A memory operand is allowed, but only if the address is | |
1069 | @dfn{offsettable}. This means that adding a small integer (actually, | |
1070 | the width in bytes of the operand, as determined by its machine mode) | |
1071 | may be added to the address and the result is also a valid memory | |
1072 | address. | |
1073 | ||
1074 | @cindex autoincrement/decrement addressing | |
1075 | For example, an address which is constant is offsettable; so is an | |
1076 | address that is the sum of a register and a constant (as long as a | |
1077 | slightly larger constant is also within the range of address-offsets | |
1078 | supported by the machine); but an autoincrement or autodecrement | |
1079 | address is not offsettable. More complicated indirect/indexed | |
1080 | addresses may or may not be offsettable depending on the other | |
1081 | addressing modes that the machine supports. | |
1082 | ||
1083 | Note that in an output operand which can be matched by another | |
1084 | operand, the constraint letter @samp{o} is valid only when accompanied | |
1085 | by both @samp{<} (if the target machine has predecrement addressing) | |
1086 | and @samp{>} (if the target machine has preincrement addressing). | |
1087 | ||
1088 | @cindex @samp{V} in constraint | |
1089 | @item @samp{V} | |
1090 | A memory operand that is not offsettable. In other words, anything that | |
1091 | would fit the @samp{m} constraint but not the @samp{o} constraint. | |
1092 | ||
1093 | @cindex @samp{<} in constraint | |
1094 | @item @samp{<} | |
1095 | A memory operand with autodecrement addressing (either predecrement or | |
1096 | postdecrement) is allowed. | |
1097 | ||
1098 | @cindex @samp{>} in constraint | |
1099 | @item @samp{>} | |
1100 | A memory operand with autoincrement addressing (either preincrement or | |
1101 | postincrement) is allowed. | |
1102 | ||
1103 | @cindex @samp{r} in constraint | |
1104 | @cindex registers in constraints | |
1105 | @item @samp{r} | |
1106 | A register operand is allowed provided that it is in a general | |
1107 | register. | |
1108 | ||
03dda8e3 RK |
1109 | @cindex constants in constraints |
1110 | @cindex @samp{i} in constraint | |
1111 | @item @samp{i} | |
1112 | An immediate integer operand (one with constant value) is allowed. | |
1113 | This includes symbolic constants whose values will be known only at | |
8ac658b6 | 1114 | assembly time or later. |
03dda8e3 RK |
1115 | |
1116 | @cindex @samp{n} in constraint | |
1117 | @item @samp{n} | |
1118 | An immediate integer operand with a known numeric value is allowed. | |
1119 | Many systems cannot support assembly-time constants for operands less | |
1120 | than a word wide. Constraints for these operands should use @samp{n} | |
1121 | rather than @samp{i}. | |
1122 | ||
1123 | @cindex @samp{I} in constraint | |
1124 | @item @samp{I}, @samp{J}, @samp{K}, @dots{} @samp{P} | |
1125 | Other letters in the range @samp{I} through @samp{P} may be defined in | |
1126 | a machine-dependent fashion to permit immediate integer operands with | |
1127 | explicit integer values in specified ranges. For example, on the | |
1128 | 68000, @samp{I} is defined to stand for the range of values 1 to 8. | |
1129 | This is the range permitted as a shift count in the shift | |
1130 | instructions. | |
1131 | ||
1132 | @cindex @samp{E} in constraint | |
1133 | @item @samp{E} | |
1134 | An immediate floating operand (expression code @code{const_double}) is | |
1135 | allowed, but only if the target floating point format is the same as | |
1136 | that of the host machine (on which the compiler is running). | |
1137 | ||
1138 | @cindex @samp{F} in constraint | |
1139 | @item @samp{F} | |
bf7cd754 R |
1140 | An immediate floating operand (expression code @code{const_double} or |
1141 | @code{const_vector}) is allowed. | |
03dda8e3 RK |
1142 | |
1143 | @cindex @samp{G} in constraint | |
1144 | @cindex @samp{H} in constraint | |
1145 | @item @samp{G}, @samp{H} | |
1146 | @samp{G} and @samp{H} may be defined in a machine-dependent fashion to | |
1147 | permit immediate floating operands in particular ranges of values. | |
1148 | ||
1149 | @cindex @samp{s} in constraint | |
1150 | @item @samp{s} | |
1151 | An immediate integer operand whose value is not an explicit integer is | |
1152 | allowed. | |
1153 | ||
1154 | This might appear strange; if an insn allows a constant operand with a | |
1155 | value not known at compile time, it certainly must allow any known | |
1156 | value. So why use @samp{s} instead of @samp{i}? Sometimes it allows | |
1157 | better code to be generated. | |
1158 | ||
1159 | For example, on the 68000 in a fullword instruction it is possible to | |
630d3d5a | 1160 | use an immediate operand; but if the immediate value is between @minus{}128 |
03dda8e3 RK |
1161 | and 127, better code results from loading the value into a register and |
1162 | using the register. This is because the load into the register can be | |
1163 | done with a @samp{moveq} instruction. We arrange for this to happen | |
1164 | by defining the letter @samp{K} to mean ``any integer outside the | |
630d3d5a | 1165 | range @minus{}128 to 127'', and then specifying @samp{Ks} in the operand |
03dda8e3 RK |
1166 | constraints. |
1167 | ||
1168 | @cindex @samp{g} in constraint | |
1169 | @item @samp{g} | |
1170 | Any register, memory or immediate integer operand is allowed, except for | |
1171 | registers that are not general registers. | |
1172 | ||
1173 | @cindex @samp{X} in constraint | |
1174 | @item @samp{X} | |
1175 | @ifset INTERNALS | |
1176 | Any operand whatsoever is allowed, even if it does not satisfy | |
1177 | @code{general_operand}. This is normally used in the constraint of | |
1178 | a @code{match_scratch} when certain alternatives will not actually | |
1179 | require a scratch register. | |
1180 | @end ifset | |
1181 | @ifclear INTERNALS | |
1182 | Any operand whatsoever is allowed. | |
1183 | @end ifclear | |
1184 | ||
1185 | @cindex @samp{0} in constraint | |
1186 | @cindex digits in constraint | |
1187 | @item @samp{0}, @samp{1}, @samp{2}, @dots{} @samp{9} | |
1188 | An operand that matches the specified operand number is allowed. If a | |
1189 | digit is used together with letters within the same alternative, the | |
1190 | digit should come last. | |
1191 | ||
84b72302 | 1192 | This number is allowed to be more than a single digit. If multiple |
c0478a66 | 1193 | digits are encountered consecutively, they are interpreted as a single |
84b72302 RH |
1194 | decimal integer. There is scant chance for ambiguity, since to-date |
1195 | it has never been desirable that @samp{10} be interpreted as matching | |
1196 | either operand 1 @emph{or} operand 0. Should this be desired, one | |
1197 | can use multiple alternatives instead. | |
1198 | ||
03dda8e3 RK |
1199 | @cindex matching constraint |
1200 | @cindex constraint, matching | |
1201 | This is called a @dfn{matching constraint} and what it really means is | |
1202 | that the assembler has only a single operand that fills two roles | |
1203 | @ifset INTERNALS | |
1204 | considered separate in the RTL insn. For example, an add insn has two | |
1205 | input operands and one output operand in the RTL, but on most CISC | |
1206 | @end ifset | |
1207 | @ifclear INTERNALS | |
1208 | which @code{asm} distinguishes. For example, an add instruction uses | |
1209 | two input operands and an output operand, but on most CISC | |
1210 | @end ifclear | |
1211 | machines an add instruction really has only two operands, one of them an | |
1212 | input-output operand: | |
1213 | ||
1214 | @smallexample | |
1215 | addl #35,r12 | |
1216 | @end smallexample | |
1217 | ||
1218 | Matching constraints are used in these circumstances. | |
1219 | More precisely, the two operands that match must include one input-only | |
1220 | operand and one output-only operand. Moreover, the digit must be a | |
1221 | smaller number than the number of the operand that uses it in the | |
1222 | constraint. | |
1223 | ||
1224 | @ifset INTERNALS | |
1225 | For operands to match in a particular case usually means that they | |
1226 | are identical-looking RTL expressions. But in a few special cases | |
1227 | specific kinds of dissimilarity are allowed. For example, @code{*x} | |
1228 | as an input operand will match @code{*x++} as an output operand. | |
1229 | For proper results in such cases, the output template should always | |
1230 | use the output-operand's number when printing the operand. | |
1231 | @end ifset | |
1232 | ||
1233 | @cindex load address instruction | |
1234 | @cindex push address instruction | |
1235 | @cindex address constraints | |
1236 | @cindex @samp{p} in constraint | |
1237 | @item @samp{p} | |
1238 | An operand that is a valid memory address is allowed. This is | |
1239 | for ``load address'' and ``push address'' instructions. | |
1240 | ||
1241 | @findex address_operand | |
1242 | @samp{p} in the constraint must be accompanied by @code{address_operand} | |
1243 | as the predicate in the @code{match_operand}. This predicate interprets | |
1244 | the mode specified in the @code{match_operand} as the mode of the memory | |
1245 | reference for which the address would be valid. | |

03dda8e3 | 1259 | |

1266 | In order to have valid assembler code, each operand must satisfy | |
1267 | its constraint. But a failure to do so does not prevent the pattern | |

1307 | the first pattern would not apply at all, because this insn does not | |

1310 | The second pattern would say, ``Yes, that's an add instruction, but there | |
1311 | is something wrong with it.'' It would direct the reload pass of the | |
1312 | compiler to generate additional insns to make the constraint true. The | |

1325 | ||
1326 | It is up to you to make sure that each operand, in each pattern, has | |
1327 | constraints that can handle any RTL expression that could be present for | |
1328 | that operand. (When multiple alternatives are in use, each pattern must, | |
1329 | for each possible combination of operand expressions, have at least one | |
1330 | alternative which can handle that combination of operands.) The | |
1331 | constraints don't need to @emph{allow} any possible operand---when this is | |
1332 | the case, they do not constrain---but they must at least point the way to | |
1333 | reloading any possible operand so that it will fit. | |
1334 | ||
1335 | @itemize @bullet | |
1336 | @item | |
1337 | If the constraint accepts whatever operands the predicate permits, | |
1338 | there is no problem: reloading is never necessary for this operand. | |
1339 | ||
1340 | For example, an operand whose constraints permit everything except | |
1341 | registers is safe provided its predicate rejects registers. | |
1342 | ||
1343 | An operand whose predicate accepts only constant values is safe | |
1344 | provided its constraints include the letter @samp{i}. If any possible | |
1345 | constant value is accepted, then nothing less than @samp{i} will do; | |
1346 | if the predicate is more selective, then the constraints may also be | |
1347 | more selective. | |
1348 | ||
1349 | @item | |
1350 | Any operand expression can be reloaded by copying it into a register. | |
1351 | So if an operand's constraints allow some kind of register, it is | |
1352 | certain to be safe. It need not permit all classes of registers; the | |
1353 | compiler knows how to copy a register into another register of the | |
1354 | proper class in order to make an instruction valid. | |
1355 | ||
1356 | @cindex nonoffsettable memory reference | |
1357 | @cindex memory reference, nonoffsettable | |
1358 | @item | |
1359 | A nonoffsettable memory reference can be reloaded by copying the | |
1360 | address into a register. So if the constraint uses the letter | |
1361 | @samp{o}, all memory references are taken care of. | |
1362 | ||
1363 | @item | |
1364 | A constant operand can be reloaded by allocating space in memory to | |
1365 | hold it as preinitialized data. Then the memory reference can be used | |
1366 | in place of the constant. So if the constraint uses the letters | |
1367 | @samp{o} or @samp{m}, constant operands are not a problem. | |
1368 | ||
1369 | @item | |
1370 | If the constraint permits a constant and a pseudo register used in an insn | |
1371 | was not allocated to a hard register and is equivalent to a constant, | |
1372 | the register will be replaced with the constant. If the predicate does | |
1373 | not permit a constant and the insn is re-recognized for some reason, the | |
1374 | compiler will crash. Thus the predicate must always recognize any | |
1375 | objects allowed by the constraint. | |
1376 | @end itemize | |
1377 | ||
1378 | If the operand's predicate can recognize registers, but the constraint does | |
1379 | not permit them, it can make the compiler crash. When this operand happens | |
1380 | to be a register, the reload pass will be stymied, because it does not know | |
1381 | how to copy a register temporarily into memory. | |
1382 | ||
1383 | If the predicate accepts a unary operator, the constraint applies to the | |
1384 | operand. For example, the MIPS processor at ISA level 3 supports an | |
1385 | instruction which adds two registers in @code{SImode} to produce a | |
1386 | @code{DImode} result, but only if the registers are correctly sign | |
1387 | extended. This predicate for the input operands accepts a | |
1388 | @code{sign_extend} of an @code{SImode} register. Write the constraint | |
1389 | to indicate the type of register that is required for the operand of the | |
1390 | @code{sign_extend}. | |

1393 | @node Multi-Alternative | |
1394 | @subsection Multiple Alternative Constraints | |
1395 | @cindex multiple alternative constraints | |
1396 | ||
1397 | Sometimes a single instruction has multiple alternative sets of possible | |
1398 | operands. For example, on the 68000, a logical-or instruction can combine | |
1399 | register or an immediate value into memory, or it can combine any kind of | |
1400 | operand into a register; but it cannot combine one memory location into | |
1401 | another. | |
1402 | ||
1403 | These constraints are represented as multiple alternatives. An alternative | |
1404 | can be described by a series of letters for each operand. The overall | |
1405 | constraint for an operand is made from the letters for this operand | |
1406 | from the first alternative, a comma, the letters for this operand from | |
1407 | the second alternative, a comma, and so on until the last alternative. | |
1408 | @ifset INTERNALS | |
1409 | Here is how it is done for fullword logical-or on the 68000: | |
1410 | ||
1411 | @smallexample | |

1416 | @dots{}) | |
1417 | @end smallexample | |
1418 | ||
1419 | The first alternative has @samp{m} (memory) for operand 0, @samp{0} for | |
1420 | operand 1 (meaning it must match operand 0), and @samp{dKs} for operand | |
1421 | 2. The second alternative has @samp{d} (data register) for operand 0, | |
1422 | @samp{0} for operand 1, and @samp{dmKs} for operand 2. The @samp{=} and | |
1423 | @samp{%} in the constraints apply to all the alternatives; their | |
1424 | meaning is explained in the next section (@pxref{Class Preferences}). | |
1425 | @end ifset | |
1426 | ||
1427 | @c FIXME Is this ? and ! stuff of use in asm()? If not, hide unless INTERNAL | |
1428 | If all the operands fit any one alternative, the instruction is valid. | |
1429 | Otherwise, for each alternative, the compiler counts how many instructions | |
1430 | must be added to copy the operands so that that alternative applies. | |
1431 | The alternative requiring the least copying is chosen. If two alternatives | |
1432 | need the same amount of copying, the one that comes first is chosen. | |
1433 | These choices can be altered with the @samp{?} and @samp{!} characters: | |
1434 | ||
1435 | @table @code | |
1436 | @cindex @samp{?} in constraint | |
1437 | @cindex question mark | |
1438 | @item ? | |
1439 | Disparage slightly the alternative that the @samp{?} appears in, | |
1440 | as a choice when no alternative applies exactly. The compiler regards | |
1441 | this alternative as one unit more costly for each @samp{?} that appears | |
1442 | in it. | |
1443 | ||
1444 | @cindex @samp{!} in constraint | |
1445 | @cindex exclamation point | |
1446 | @item ! | |
1447 | Disparage severely the alternative that the @samp{!} appears in. | |
1448 | This alternative can still be used if it fits without reloading, | |
1449 | but if reloading is needed, some other alternative will be used. | |
1450 | @end table | |
1451 | ||
1452 | @ifset INTERNALS | |
1453 | When an insn pattern has multiple alternatives in its constraints, often | |
1454 | the appearance of the assembler code is determined mostly by which | |
1455 | alternative was matched. When this is so, the C code for writing the | |
1456 | assembler code can use the variable @code{which_alternative}, which is | |
1457 | the ordinal number of the alternative that was actually satisfied (0 for | |
1458 | the first, 1 for the second alternative, etc.). @xref{Output Statement}. | |

1468 | The operand constraints have another function: they enable the compiler | |
1469 | to decide which kind of hardware register a pseudo register is best | |
1470 | allocated to. The compiler examines the constraints that apply to the | |
1471 | insns that use the pseudo register, looking for the machine-dependent | |
1472 | letters such as @samp{d} and @samp{a} that specify classes of registers. | |
1473 | The pseudo register is put in whichever class gets the most ``votes''. | |
1474 | The constraint letters @samp{g} and @samp{r} also vote: they vote in | |
1475 | favor of a general register. The machine description says which registers | |
1476 | are considered general. | |
1477 | ||

1509 | @cindex @samp{&} in constraint |

1512 | Means (in a particular alternative) that this operand is an | |
1513 | @dfn{earlyclobber} operand, which is modified before the instruction is | |
1514 | finished using the input operands. Therefore, this operand may not lie | |
1515 | in a register that is used as an input operand or as part of any memory | |
1516 | address. | |
1517 | ||
1518 | @samp{&} applies only to the alternative in which it is written. In | |
1519 | constraints with multiple alternatives, sometimes one alternative | |
1520 | requires @samp{&} while others do not. See, for example, the | |
1521 | @samp{movdf} insn of the 68000. | |

2629 | Here is a table of the instruction names that are meaningful in the RTL | |
2630 | generation pass of the compiler. Giving one of these names to an | |

4bd0bee9 | 2637 | Here @var{m} stands for a two-letter machine mode name, in lowercase. |
03dda8e3 RK |
2638 | This instruction pattern moves data with that machine mode from operand |
2639 | 1 to operand 0. For example, @samp{movsi} moves full-word data. | |
2640 | ||
2641 | If operand 0 is a @code{subreg} with mode @var{m} of a register whose | |
2642 | own mode is wider than @var{m}, the effect of this instruction is | |
2643 | to store the specified value in the part of the register that corresponds | |
8feb4e28 JL |
2644 | to mode @var{m}. Bits outside of @var{m}, but which are within the |
2645 | same target word as the @code{subreg} are undefined. Bits which are | |
2646 | outside the target word are left unchanged. | |

2649 | of these names up to and including full word size @emph{must} be defined, |
2650 | because there is no other way to copy a datum from one place to another. | |
2651 | If there are patterns accepting operands in larger modes, | |
2652 | @samp{mov@var{m}} must be defined for integer modes of those sizes. | |
03dda8e3 RK |
2653 | |
2654 | Second, these patterns are not used solely in the RTL generation pass. | |
2655 | Even the reload pass can generate move insns to copy values from stack | |
2656 | slots into temporary registers. When it does so, one of the operands is | |
2657 | a hard register and the other is an operand that can need to be reloaded | |
2658 | into a register. | |
2659 | ||
2660 | @findex force_reg | |
2661 | Therefore, when given such a pair of operands, the pattern must generate | |
2662 | RTL which needs no reloading and needs no temporary registers---no | |
2663 | registers other than the operands. For example, if you support the | |
2664 | pattern with a @code{define_expand}, then in such a case the | |
2665 | @code{define_expand} mustn't call @code{force_reg} or any other such | |
2666 | function which might generate new pseudo registers. | |
2667 | ||
2668 | This requirement exists even for subword modes on a RISC machine where | |
2669 | fetching those modes from memory normally requires several insns and | |
39ed8974 | 2670 | some temporary registers. |
03dda8e3 RK |
2671 | |
2672 | @findex change_address | |
2673 | During reload a memory reference with an invalid address may be passed | |
2674 | as an operand. Such an address will be replaced with a valid address | |
2675 | later in the reload pass. In this case, nothing may be done with the | |
2676 | address except to use it as it stands. If it is copied, it will not be | |
2677 | replaced with a valid address. No attempt should be made to make such | |
2678 | an address into a valid address and no routine (such as | |
2679 | @code{change_address}) that will do so may be called. Note that | |
2680 | @code{general_operand} will fail when applied to such an address. | |
2681 | ||
2682 | @findex reload_in_progress | |
2683 | The global variable @code{reload_in_progress} (which must be explicitly | |
2684 | declared if required) can be used to determine whether such special | |
2685 | handling is required. | |
2686 | ||
2687 | The variety of operands that have reloads depends on the rest of the | |
2688 | machine description, but typically on a RISC machine these can only be | |
2689 | pseudo registers that did not get hard registers, while on other | |
2690 | machines explicit memory references will get optional reloads. | |
2691 | ||
2692 | If a scratch register is required to move an object to or from memory, | |
f1db3576 JL |
2693 | it can be allocated using @code{gen_reg_rtx} prior to life analysis. |
2694 | ||
9c34dbbf ZW |
2695 | If there are cases which need scratch registers during or after reload, |
2696 | you must define @code{SECONDARY_INPUT_RELOAD_CLASS} and/or | |
03dda8e3 RK |
2697 | @code{SECONDARY_OUTPUT_RELOAD_CLASS} to detect them, and provide |
2698 | patterns @samp{reload_in@var{m}} or @samp{reload_out@var{m}} to handle | |
2699 | them. @xref{Register Classes}. | |
2700 | ||
f1db3576 JL |
2701 | @findex no_new_pseudos |
2702 | The global variable @code{no_new_pseudos} can be used to determine if it | |
2703 | is unsafe to create new pseudo registers. If this variable is nonzero, then | |
2704 | it is unsafe to call @code{gen_reg_rtx} to allocate a new pseudo. | |
2705 | ||
956d6950 | 2706 | The constraints on a @samp{mov@var{m}} must permit moving any hard |
03dda8e3 RK |
2707 | register to any other hard register provided that |
2708 | @code{HARD_REGNO_MODE_OK} permits mode @var{m} in both registers and | |
2709 | @code{REGISTER_MOVE_COST} applied to their classes returns a value of 2. | |
2710 | ||
956d6950 | 2711 | It is obligatory to support floating point @samp{mov@var{m}} |
03dda8e3 RK |
2712 | instructions into and out of any registers that can hold fixed point |
2713 | values, because unions and structures (which have modes @code{SImode} or | |
2714 | @code{DImode}) can be in those registers and they may have floating | |
2715 | point members. | |
2716 | ||
956d6950 | 2717 | There may also be a need to support fixed point @samp{mov@var{m}} |
03dda8e3 RK |
2718 | instructions in and out of floating point registers. Unfortunately, I |
2719 | have forgotten why this was so, and I don't know whether it is still | |
2720 | true. If @code{HARD_REGNO_MODE_OK} rejects fixed point values in | |
2721 | floating point registers, then the constraints of the fixed point | |
956d6950 | 2722 | @samp{mov@var{m}} instructions must be designed to avoid ever trying to |
03dda8e3 RK |
2723 | reload into a floating point register. |

2725 | @cindex @code{reload_in} instruction pattern | |

2727 | @item @samp{reload_in@var{m}} | |
2728 | @itemx @samp{reload_out@var{m}} | |
2729 | Like @samp{mov@var{m}}, but used when a scratch register is required to | |
2730 | move between operand 0 and operand 1. Operand 2 describes the scratch | |
2731 | register. See the discussion of the @code{SECONDARY_RELOAD_CLASS} | |
2732 | macro in @pxref{Register Classes}. | |
2733 | ||
d989f648 | 2734 | There are special restrictions on the form of the @code{match_operand}s |
f282ffb3 | 2735 | used in these patterns. First, only the predicate for the reload |
560dbedd RH |
2736 | operand is examined, i.e., @code{reload_in} examines operand 1, but not |
2737 | the predicates for operand 0 or 2. Second, there may be only one | |
d989f648 RH |
2738 | alternative in the constraints. Third, only a single register class |
2739 | letter may be used for the constraint; subsequent constraint letters | |
2740 | are ignored. As a special exception, an empty constraint string | |
2741 | matches the @code{ALL_REGS} register class. This may relieve ports | |
2742 | of the burden of defining an @code{ALL_REGS} constraint letter just | |
2743 | for these patterns. | |

03dda8e3 RK |
2745 | @cindex @code{movstrict@var{m}} instruction pattern |
2746 | @item @samp{movstrict@var{m}} | |
2747 | Like @samp{mov@var{m}} except that if operand 0 is a @code{subreg} | |
2748 | with mode @var{m} of a register whose natural mode is wider, | |
2749 | the @samp{movstrict@var{m}} instruction is guaranteed not to alter | |
2750 | any of the register except the part which belongs to mode @var{m}. | |
2751 | ||
2752 | @cindex @code{load_multiple} instruction pattern | |
2753 | @item @samp{load_multiple} | |
2754 | Load several consecutive memory locations into consecutive registers. | |
2755 | Operand 0 is the first of the consecutive registers, operand 1 | |
2756 | is the first memory location, and operand 2 is a constant: the | |
2757 | number of consecutive registers. | |
2758 | ||
2759 | Define this only if the target machine really has such an instruction; | |
2760 | do not define this if the most efficient way of loading consecutive | |
2761 | registers from memory is to do them one at a time. | |
2762 | ||
2763 | On some machines, there are restrictions as to which consecutive | |
2764 | registers can be stored into memory, such as particular starting or | |
2765 | ending register numbers or only a range of valid counts. For those | |
2766 | machines, use a @code{define_expand} (@pxref{Expander Definitions}) | |
2767 | and make the pattern fail if the restrictions are not met. | |
2768 | ||
2769 | Write the generated insn as a @code{parallel} with elements being a | |
2770 | @code{set} of one register from the appropriate memory location (you may | |
2771 | also need @code{use} or @code{clobber} elements). Use a | |
2772 | @code{match_parallel} (@pxref{RTL Template}) to recognize the insn. See | |
c9693e96 | 2773 | @file{rs6000.md} for examples of the use of this insn pattern. |

3354 | Subroutine call instruction returning no value. Operand 0 is the | |
3355 | function to call; operand 1 is the number of bytes of arguments pushed | |
f5963e61 JL |
3356 | as a @code{const_int}; operand 2 is the number of registers used as |
3357 | operands. | |
03dda8e3 RK |
3358 | |
3359 | On most machines, operand 2 is not actually stored into the RTL | |
3360 | pattern. It is supplied for the sake of some RISC machines which need | |
3361 | to put this information into the assembler code; they can put it in | |
3362 | the RTL instead of operand 1. | |
3363 | ||
3364 | Operand 0 should be a @code{mem} RTX whose address is the address of the | |
3365 | function. Note, however, that this address can be a @code{symbol_ref} | |
3366 | expression even if it would not be a legitimate memory address on the | |
3367 | target machine. If it is also not a valid argument for a call | |
3368 | instruction, the pattern for this operation should be a | |
3369 | @code{define_expand} (@pxref{Expander Definitions}) that places the | |
3370 | address into a register and uses that register in the call instruction. | |
3371 | ||
3372 | @cindex @code{call_value} instruction pattern | |
3373 | @item @samp{call_value} | |
3374 | Subroutine call instruction returning a value. Operand 0 is the hard | |
3375 | register in which the value is returned. There are three more | |
3376 | operands, the same as the three operands of the @samp{call} | |
3377 | instruction (but with numbers increased by one). | |
3378 | ||
3379 | Subroutines that return @code{BLKmode} objects use the @samp{call} | |
3380 | insn. | |
3381 | ||
3382 | @cindex @code{call_pop} instruction pattern | |
3383 | @cindex @code{call_value_pop} instruction pattern | |
3384 | @item @samp{call_pop}, @samp{call_value_pop} | |
3385 | Similar to @samp{call} and @samp{call_value}, except used if defined and | |
df2a54e9 | 3386 | if @code{RETURN_POPS_ARGS} is nonzero. They should emit a @code{parallel} |
03dda8e3 RK |
3387 | that contains both the function call and a @code{set} to indicate the |
3388 | adjustment made to the frame pointer. | |
3389 | ||
df2a54e9 | 3390 | For machines where @code{RETURN_POPS_ARGS} can be nonzero, the use of these |
03dda8e3 RK |
3391 | patterns increases the number of functions for which the frame pointer |
3392 | can be eliminated, if desired. | |
3393 | ||
3394 | @cindex @code{untyped_call} instruction pattern | |
3395 | @item @samp{untyped_call} | |
3396 | Subroutine call instruction returning a value of any type. Operand 0 is | |
3397 | the function to call; operand 1 is a memory location where the result of | |
3398 | calling the function is to be stored; operand 2 is a @code{parallel} | |
3399 | expression where each element is a @code{set} expression that indicates | |
3400 | the saving of a function return value into the result block. | |
3401 | ||
3402 | This instruction pattern should be defined to support | |
3403 | @code{__builtin_apply} on machines where special instructions are needed | |
3404 | to call a subroutine with arbitrary arguments or to save the value | |
3405 | returned. This instruction pattern is required on machines that have | |
e979f9e8 JM |
3406 | multiple registers that can hold a return value |
3407 | (i.e.@: @code{FUNCTION_VALUE_REGNO_P} is true for more than one register). | |
03dda8e3 RK |
3408 | |
3409 | @cindex @code{return} instruction pattern | |
3410 | @item @samp{return} | |
3411 | Subroutine return instruction. This instruction pattern name should be | |
3412 | defined only if a single instruction can do all the work of returning | |
3413 | from a function. | |
3414 | ||
3415 | Like the @samp{mov@var{m}} patterns, this pattern is also used after the | |
3416 | RTL generation phase. In this case it is to support machines where | |
3417 | multiple instructions are usually needed to return from a function, but | |
3418 | some class of functions only requires one instruction to implement a | |
3419 | return. Normally, the applicable functions are those which do not need | |
3420 | to save any registers or allocate stack space. | |
3421 | ||
3422 | @findex reload_completed | |
3423 | @findex leaf_function_p | |
3424 | For such machines, the condition specified in this pattern should only | |
df2a54e9 | 3425 | be true when @code{reload_completed} is nonzero and the function's |
03dda8e3 RK |
3426 | epilogue would only be a single instruction. For machines with register |
3427 | windows, the routine @code{leaf_function_p} may be used to determine if | |
3428 | a register window push is required. | |
3429 | ||
3430 | Machines that have conditional return instructions should define patterns | |
3431 | such as | |
3432 | ||
3433 | @smallexample | |
3434 | (define_insn "" | |
3435 | [(set (pc) | |
3436 | (if_then_else (match_operator | |
3437 | 0 "comparison_operator" | |
3438 | [(cc0) (const_int 0)]) | |
3439 | (return) | |
3440 | (pc)))] | |
3441 | "@var{condition}" | |
3442 | "@dots{}") | |
3443 | @end smallexample | |
3444 | ||
3445 | where @var{condition} would normally be the same condition specified on the | |
3446 | named @samp{return} pattern. | |
3447 | ||
3448 | @cindex @code{untyped_return} instruction pattern | |
3449 | @item @samp{untyped_return} | |
3450 | Untyped subroutine return instruction. This instruction pattern should | |
3451 | be defined to support @code{__builtin_return} on machines where special | |
3452 | instructions are needed to return a value of any type. | |
3453 | ||
3454 | Operand 0 is a memory location where the result of calling a function | |
3455 | with @code{__builtin_apply} is stored; operand 1 is a @code{parallel} | |
3456 | expression where each element is a @code{set} expression that indicates | |
3457 | the restoring of a function return value from the result block. | |
3458 | ||
3459 | @cindex @code{nop} instruction pattern | |
3460 | @item @samp{nop} | |
3461 | No-op instruction. This instruction pattern name should always be defined | |
3462 | to output a no-op in assembler code. @code{(const_int 0)} will do as an | |
3463 | RTL pattern. | |
3464 | ||
3465 | @cindex @code{indirect_jump} instruction pattern | |
3466 | @item @samp{indirect_jump} | |
3467 | An instruction to jump to an address which is operand zero. | |
3468 | This pattern name is mandatory on all machines. | |
3469 | ||
3470 | @cindex @code{casesi} instruction pattern | |
3471 | @item @samp{casesi} | |
3472 | Instruction to jump through a dispatch table, including bounds checking. | |
3473 | This instruction takes five operands: | |
3474 | ||
3475 | @enumerate | |
3476 | @item | |
3477 | The index to dispatch on, which has mode @code{SImode}. | |
3478 | ||
3479 | @item | |
3480 | The lower bound for indices in the table, an integer constant. | |
3481 | ||
3482 | @item | |
3483 | The total range of indices in the table---the largest index | |
3484 | minus the smallest one (both inclusive). | |
3485 | ||
3486 | @item | |
3487 | A label that precedes the table itself. | |
3488 | ||
3489 | @item | |
3490 | A label to jump to if the index has a value outside the bounds. | |
3491 | (If the machine-description macro @code{CASE_DROPS_THROUGH} is defined, | |
3492 | then an out-of-bounds index drops through to the code following | |
3493 | the jump table instead of jumping to this label. In that case, | |
3494 | this label is not actually used by the @samp{casesi} instruction, | |
3495 | but it is always provided as an operand.) | |
3496 | @end enumerate | |
3497 | ||
3498 | The table is a @code{addr_vec} or @code{addr_diff_vec} inside of a | |
3499 | @code{jump_insn}. The number of elements in the table is one plus the | |
3500 | difference between the upper bound and the lower bound. | |
3501 | ||
3502 | @cindex @code{tablejump} instruction pattern | |
3503 | @item @samp{tablejump} | |
3504 | Instruction to jump to a variable address. This is a low-level | |
3505 | capability which can be used to implement a dispatch table when there | |
3506 | is no @samp{casesi} pattern. | |
3507 | ||
3508 | This pattern requires two operands: the address or offset, and a label | |
3509 | which should immediately precede the jump table. If the macro | |
f1f5f142 JL |
3510 | @code{CASE_VECTOR_PC_RELATIVE} evaluates to a nonzero value then the first |
3511 | operand is an offset which counts from the address of the table; otherwise, | |
3512 | it is an absolute address to jump to. In either case, the first operand has | |
03dda8e3 RK |
3513 | mode @code{Pmode}. |
3514 | ||
3515 | The @samp{tablejump} insn is always the last insn before the jump | |
3516 | table it uses. Its assembler code normally has no need to use the | |
3517 | second operand, but you should incorporate it in the RTL pattern so | |
3518 | that the jump optimizer will not delete the table as unreachable code. | |
3519 | ||

3520 | |
3521 | @cindex @code{decrement_and_branch_until_zero} instruction pattern | |
3522 | @item @samp{decrement_and_branch_until_zero} | |
3523 | Conditional branch instruction that decrements a register and | |
df2a54e9 | 3524 | jumps if the register is nonzero. Operand 0 is the register to |
6e4fcc95 | 3525 | decrement and test; operand 1 is the label to jump to if the |
df2a54e9 | 3526 | register is nonzero. @xref{Looping Patterns}. |
6e4fcc95 MH |
3527 | |
3528 | This optional instruction pattern is only used by the combiner, | |
3529 | typically for loops reversed by the loop optimizer when strength | |
3530 | reduction is enabled. | |
3531 | ||
3532 | @cindex @code{doloop_end} instruction pattern | |
3533 | @item @samp{doloop_end} | |
3534 | Conditional branch instruction that decrements a register and jumps if | |
df2a54e9 | 3535 | the register is nonzero. This instruction takes five operands: Operand |
6e4fcc95 MH |
3536 | 0 is the register to decrement and test; operand 1 is the number of loop |
3537 | iterations as a @code{const_int} or @code{const0_rtx} if this cannot be | |
3538 | determined until run-time; operand 2 is the actual or estimated maximum | |
3539 | number of iterations as a @code{const_int}; operand 3 is the number of | |
3540 | enclosed loops as a @code{const_int} (an innermost loop has a value of | |
df2a54e9 | 3541 | 1); operand 4 is the label to jump to if the register is nonzero. |
5c25e11d | 3542 | @xref{Looping Patterns}. |
6e4fcc95 MH |
3543 | |
3544 | This optional instruction pattern should be defined for machines with | |
3545 | low-overhead looping instructions as the loop optimizer will try to | |
3546 | modify suitable loops to utilize it. If nested low-overhead looping is | |
3547 | not supported, use a @code{define_expand} (@pxref{Expander Definitions}) | |
3548 | and make the pattern fail if operand 3 is not @code{const1_rtx}. | |
3549 | Similarly, if the actual or estimated maximum number of iterations is | |
3550 | too large for this instruction, make it fail. | |
3551 | ||
3552 | @cindex @code{doloop_begin} instruction pattern | |
3553 | @item @samp{doloop_begin} | |
3554 | Companion instruction to @code{doloop_end} required for machines that | |
c21cd8b1 JM |
3555 | need to perform some initialization, such as loading special registers |
3556 | used by a low-overhead looping instruction. If initialization insns do | |
6e4fcc95 MH |
3557 | not always need to be emitted, use a @code{define_expand} |
3558 | (@pxref{Expander Definitions}) and make it fail. | |

03dda8e3 RK |
3561 | @cindex @code{canonicalize_funcptr_for_compare} instruction pattern |
3562 | @item @samp{canonicalize_funcptr_for_compare} | |
3563 | Canonicalize the function pointer in operand 1 and store the result | |
3564 | into operand 0. | |
3565 | ||
3566 | Operand 0 is always a @code{reg} and has mode @code{Pmode}; operand 1 | |
3567 | may be a @code{reg}, @code{mem}, @code{symbol_ref}, @code{const_int}, etc | |
3568 | and also has mode @code{Pmode}. | |
3569 | ||
3570 | Canonicalization of a function pointer usually involves computing | |
3571 | the address of the function which would be called if the function | |
3572 | pointer were used in an indirect call. | |
3573 | ||
3574 | Only define this pattern if function pointers on the target machine | |
3575 | can have different values but still call the same function when | |
3576 | used in an indirect call. | |

3589 | @itemx @samp{restore_stack_nonlocal} | |
3590 | Most machines save and restore the stack pointer by copying it to or | |
3591 | from an object of mode @code{Pmode}. Do not define these patterns on | |
3592 | such machines. | |
3593 | ||
3594 | Some machines require special handling for stack pointer saves and | |
3595 | restores. On those machines, define the patterns corresponding to the | |
3596 | non-standard cases by using a @code{define_expand} (@pxref{Expander | |
3597 | Definitions}) that produces the required insns. The three types of | |
3598 | saves and restores are: | |
3599 | ||
3600 | @enumerate | |
3601 | @item | |
3602 | @samp{save_stack_block} saves the stack pointer at the start of a block | |
3603 | that allocates a variable-sized object, and @samp{restore_stack_block} | |
3604 | restores the stack pointer when the block is exited. | |
3605 | ||
3606 | @item | |
3607 | @samp{save_stack_function} and @samp{restore_stack_function} do a | |
3608 | similar job for the outermost block of a function and are used when the | |
3609 | function allocates variable-sized objects or calls @code{alloca}. Only | |
3610 | the epilogue uses the restored stack pointer, allowing a simpler save or | |
3611 | restore sequence on some machines. | |
3612 | ||
3613 | @item | |
3614 | @samp{save_stack_nonlocal} is used in functions that contain labels | |
3615 | branched to by nested functions. It saves the stack pointer in such a | |
3616 | way that the inner function can use @samp{restore_stack_nonlocal} to | |
3617 | restore the stack pointer. The compiler generates code to restore the | |
3618 | frame and argument pointer registers, but some machines require saving | |
3619 | and restoring additional data such as register window information or | |
3620 | stack backchains. Place insns in these patterns to save and restore any | |
3621 | such required data. | |
3622 | @end enumerate | |
3623 | ||
3624 | When saving the stack pointer, operand 0 is the save area and operand 1 | |
73c8090f DE |
3625 | is the stack pointer. The mode used to allocate the save area defaults |
3626 | to @code{Pmode} but you can override that choice by defining the | |
7e390c9d | 3627 | @code{STACK_SAVEAREA_MODE} macro (@pxref{Storage Layout}). You must |
73c8090f DE |
3628 | specify an integral mode, or @code{VOIDmode} if no save area is needed |
3629 | for a particular type of save (either because no save is needed or | |
3630 | because a machine-specific save area can be used). Operand 0 is the | |
3631 | stack pointer and operand 1 is the save area for restore operations. If | |
3632 | @samp{save_stack_block} is defined, operand 0 must not be | |
3633 | @code{VOIDmode} since these saves can be arbitrarily nested. | |
03dda8e3 RK |
3634 | |
3635 | A save area is a @code{mem} that is at a constant offset from | |
3636 | @code{virtual_stack_vars_rtx} when the stack pointer is saved for use by | |
3637 | nonlocal gotos and a @code{reg} in the other two cases. | |
3638 | ||
3639 | @cindex @code{allocate_stack} instruction pattern | |
3640 | @item @samp{allocate_stack} | |
72938a4c | 3641 | Subtract (or add if @code{STACK_GROWS_DOWNWARD} is undefined) operand 1 from |
03dda8e3 RK |
3642 | the stack pointer to create space for dynamically allocated data. |
3643 | ||
72938a4c MM |
3644 | Store the resultant pointer to this space into operand 0. If you |
3645 | are allocating space from the main stack, do this by emitting a | |
3646 | move insn to copy @code{virtual_stack_dynamic_rtx} to operand 0. | |
3647 | If you are allocating the space elsewhere, generate code to copy the | |
3648 | location of the space to operand 0. In the latter case, you must | |
956d6950 | 3649 | ensure this space gets freed when the corresponding space on the main |
72938a4c MM |
3650 | stack is free. |
3651 | ||
03dda8e3 RK |
3652 | Do not define this pattern if all that must be done is the subtraction. |
3653 | Some machines require other operations such as stack probes or | |
3654 | maintaining the back chain. Define this pattern to emit those | |
3655 | operations in addition to updating the stack pointer. | |
3656 | ||
861bb6c1 JL |
3657 | @cindex @code{check_stack} instruction pattern |
3658 | @item @samp{check_stack} | |
3659 | If stack checking cannot be done on your system by probing the stack with | |
3660 | a load or store instruction (@pxref{Stack Checking}), define this pattern | |
3661 | to perform the needed check and signaling an error if the stack | |
3662 | has overflowed. The single operand is the location in the stack furthest | |
3663 | from the current stack pointer that you need to validate. Normally, | |
3664 | on machines where this pattern is needed, you would obtain the stack | |
3665 | limit from a global or thread-specific variable or register. | |
3666 | ||
03dda8e3 RK |
3667 | @cindex @code{nonlocal_goto} instruction pattern |
3668 | @item @samp{nonlocal_goto} | |
3669 | Emit code to generate a non-local goto, e.g., a jump from one function | |
3670 | to a label in an outer function. This pattern has four arguments, | |
3671 | each representing a value to be used in the jump. The first | |
45bb86fd | 3672 | argument is to be loaded into the frame pointer, the second is |
03dda8e3 RK |
3673 | the address to branch to (code to dispatch to the actual label), |
3674 | the third is the address of a location where the stack is saved, | |
3675 | and the last is the address of the label, to be placed in the | |
3676 | location for the incoming static chain. | |
3677 | ||
f0523f02 | 3678 | On most machines you need not define this pattern, since GCC will |
03dda8e3 RK |
3679 | already generate the correct code, which is to load the frame pointer |
3680 | and static chain, restore the stack (using the | |
3681 | @samp{restore_stack_nonlocal} pattern, if defined), and jump indirectly | |
3682 | to the dispatcher. You need only define this pattern if this code will | |
3683 | not work on your machine. | |

03dda8e3 RK |
3689 | normally need to define this pattern. A typical reason why you might |
3690 | need this pattern is if some value, such as a pointer to a global table, | |
c30ddbc9 | 3691 | must be restored when the frame pointer is restored. Note that a nonlocal |
89bcce1b | 3692 | goto only occurs within a unit-of-translation, so a global table pointer |
c30ddbc9 RH |
3693 | that is shared by all functions of a given module need not be restored. |

3712 | address of a label for instance). The single argument is a pointer to | |

3837 | @cindex Ordering of Patterns | |
3838 | ||
3839 | Sometimes an insn can match more than one instruction pattern. Then the | |
3840 | pattern that appears first in the machine description is the one used. | |
3841 | Therefore, more specific patterns (patterns that will match fewer things) | |
3842 | and faster instructions (those that will produce better code when they | |
3843 | do match) should usually go first in the description. | |
3844 | ||
3845 | In some cases the effect of ordering the patterns can be used to hide | |
3846 | a pattern when it is not valid. For example, the 68000 has an | |
3847 | instruction for converting a fullword to floating point and another | |
3848 | for converting a byte to floating point. An instruction converting | |
3849 | an integer to floating point could match either one. We put the | |
3850 | pattern to convert the fullword first to make sure that one will | |
3851 | be used rather than the other. (Otherwise a large integer might | |
3852 | be generated as a single-byte immediate quantity, which would not work.) | |
3853 | Instead of using this pattern ordering it would be possible to make the | |
3854 | pattern for convert-a-byte smart enough to deal properly with any | |
3855 | constant value. | |

3888 | They are necessary because jump optimization can turn direct-conditional | |

3906 | In some cases machines support instructions identical except for the | |
3907 | machine mode of one or more operands. For example, there may be | |
3908 | ``sign-extend halfword'' and ``sign-extend byte'' instructions whose | |
3909 | patterns are | |
3910 | ||
3ab51846 | 3911 | @smallexample |

03dda8e3 RK |
3918 | |
3919 | @noindent | |
3920 | Constant integers do not specify a machine mode, so an instruction to | |
3921 | extend a constant value could match either pattern. The pattern it | |
3922 | actually will match is the one that appears first in the file. For correct | |
3923 | results, this must be the one for the widest possible mode (@code{HImode}, | |
3924 | here). If the pattern matches the @code{QImode} instruction, the results | |
3925 | will be incorrect if the constant value does not actually fit that mode. | |
3926 | ||
3927 | Such instructions to extend constants are rarely generated because they are | |
3928 | optimized away, but they do occasionally happen in nonoptimized | |
3929 | compilations. | |
3930 | ||
3931 | If a constraint in a pattern allows a constant, the reload pass may | |
3932 | replace a register with a constant permitted by the constraint in some | |
3933 | cases. Similarly for memory references. Because of this substitution, | |
3934 | you should not provide separate patterns for increment and decrement | |
3935 | instructions. Instead, they should be generated from the same pattern | |
3936 | that supports register-register add insns by examining the operands and | |
3937 | generating the appropriate machine instruction. | |

f0523f02 | 3946 | For most machines, GCC assumes that the machine has a condition code. |
03dda8e3 RK |
3947 | A comparison insn sets the condition code, recording the results of both |
3948 | signed and unsigned comparison of the given operands. A separate branch | |
3949 | insn tests the condition code and branches or not according its value. | |
3950 | The branch insns come in distinct signed and unsigned flavors. Many | |
8aeea6e6 | 3951 | common machines, such as the VAX, the 68000 and the 32000, work this |
03dda8e3 RK |
3952 | way. |
3953 | ||
3954 | Some machines have distinct signed and unsigned compare instructions, and | |
3955 | only one set of conditional branch instructions. The easiest way to handle | |
3956 | these machines is to treat them just like the others until the final stage | |
3957 | where assembly code is written. At this time, when outputting code for the | |
3958 | compare instruction, peek ahead at the following branch using | |
3959 | @code{next_cc0_user (insn)}. (The variable @code{insn} refers to the insn | |
3960 | being output, in the output-writing code in an instruction pattern.) If | |
3961 | the RTL says that is an unsigned branch, output an unsigned compare; | |
3962 | otherwise output a signed compare. When the branch itself is output, you | |
3963 | can treat signed and unsigned branches identically. | |
3964 | ||
f0523f02 | 3965 | The reason you can do this is that GCC always generates a pair of |
03dda8e3 RK |
3966 | consecutive RTL insns, possibly separated by @code{note} insns, one to |
3967 | set the condition code and one to test it, and keeps the pair inviolate | |
3968 | until the end. | |
3969 | ||
3970 | To go with this technique, you must define the machine-description macro | |
3971 | @code{NOTICE_UPDATE_CC} to do @code{CC_STATUS_INIT}; in other words, no | |
3972 | compare instruction is superfluous. | |
3973 | ||
3974 | Some machines have compare-and-branch instructions and no condition code. | |
3975 | A similar technique works for them. When it is time to ``output'' a | |
3976 | compare instruction, record its operands in two static variables. When | |
3977 | outputting the branch-on-condition-code instruction that follows, actually | |
3978 | output a compare-and-branch instruction that uses the remembered operands. | |
3979 | ||
3980 | It also works to define patterns for compare-and-branch instructions. | |
3981 | In optimizing compilation, the pair of compare and branch instructions | |
3982 | will be combined according to these patterns. But this does not happen | |
3983 | if optimization is not requested. So you must use one of the solutions | |
3984 | above in addition to any special patterns you define. | |
3985 | ||
3986 | In many RISC machines, most instructions do not affect the condition | |
3987 | code and there may not even be a separate condition code register. On | |
3988 | these machines, the restriction that the definition and use of the | |
3989 | condition code be adjacent insns is not necessary and can prevent | |
3990 | important optimizations. For example, on the IBM RS/6000, there is a | |
3991 | delay for taken branches unless the condition code register is set three | |
3992 | instructions earlier than the conditional branch. The instruction | |
3993 | scheduler cannot perform this optimization if it is not permitted to | |
3994 | separate the definition and use of the condition code register. | |
3995 | ||
3996 | On these machines, do not use @code{(cc0)}, but instead use a register | |
3997 | to represent the condition code. If there is a specific condition code | |
3998 | register in the machine, use a hard register. If the condition code or | |
3999 | comparison result can be placed in any general register, or if there are | |
4000 | multiple condition registers, use a pseudo register. | |
4001 | ||
4002 | @findex prev_cc0_setter | |
4003 | @findex next_cc0_user | |
4004 | On some machines, the type of branch instruction generated may depend on | |
4005 | the way the condition code was produced; for example, on the 68k and | |
981f6289 | 4006 | SPARC, setting the condition code directly from an add or subtract |
03dda8e3 RK |
4007 | instruction does not clear the overflow bit the way that a test |
4008 | instruction does, so a different branch instruction must be used for | |
4009 | some conditional branches. For machines that use @code{(cc0)}, the set | |
4010 | and use of the condition code must be adjacent (separated only by | |
4011 | @code{note} insns) allowing flags in @code{cc_status} to be used. | |
4012 | (@xref{Condition Code}.) Also, the comparison and branch insns can be | |
4013 | located from each other by using the functions @code{prev_cc0_setter} | |
4014 | and @code{next_cc0_user}. | |
4015 | ||
4016 | However, this is not true on machines that do not use @code{(cc0)}. On | |
4017 | those machines, no assumptions can be made about the adjacency of the | |
4018 | compare and branch insns and the above methods cannot be used. Instead, | |
4019 | we use the machine mode of the condition code register to record | |
4020 | different formats of the condition code register. | |
4021 | ||
4022 | Registers used to store the condition code value should have a mode that | |
4023 | is in class @code{MODE_CC}. Normally, it will be @code{CCmode}. If | |
4024 | additional modes are required (as for the add example mentioned above in | |
981f6289 | 4025 | the SPARC), define the macro @code{EXTRA_CC_MODES} to list the |
03dda8e3 | 4026 | additional modes required (@pxref{Condition Code}). Also define |
03dda8e3 RK |
4027 | @code{SELECT_CC_MODE} to choose a mode given an operand of a compare. |
4028 | ||
4029 | If it is known during RTL generation that a different mode will be | |
4030 | required (for example, if the machine has separate compare instructions | |
4031 | for signed and unsigned quantities, like most IBM processors), they can | |
4032 | be specified at that time. | |
4033 | ||
4034 | If the cases that require different modes would be made by instruction | |
4035 | combination, the macro @code{SELECT_CC_MODE} determines which machine | |
4036 | mode should be used for the comparison result. The patterns should be | |
981f6289 | 4037 | written using that mode. To support the case of the add on the SPARC |
03dda8e3 RK |
4038 | discussed above, we have the pattern |

05713b80 | 4061 | Some machines have special jump instructions that can be utilized to |
6e4fcc95 MH |
4062 | make loops more efficient. A common example is the 68000 @samp{dbra} |
4063 | instruction which performs a decrement of a register and a branch if the | |
4064 | result was greater than zero. Other machines, in particular digital | |
4065 | signal processors (DSPs), have special block repeat instructions to | |
4066 | provide low-overhead loop support. For example, the TI TMS320C3x/C4x | |
4067 | DSPs have a block repeat instruction that loads special registers to | |
4068 | mark the top and end of a loop and to count the number of loop | |
4069 | iterations. This avoids the need for fetching and executing a | |
c771326b | 4070 | @samp{dbra}-like instruction and avoids pipeline stalls associated with |
6e4fcc95 MH |
4071 | the jump. |
4072 | ||

4073 | GCC has three special named patterns to support low overhead looping. |
4074 | They are @samp{decrement_and_branch_until_zero}, @samp{doloop_begin}, | |
4075 | and @samp{doloop_end}. The first pattern, | |
6e4fcc95 MH |
4076 | @samp{decrement_and_branch_until_zero}, is not emitted during RTL |
4077 | generation but may be emitted during the instruction combination phase. | |
4078 | This requires the assistance of the loop optimizer, using information | |
4079 | collected during strength reduction, to reverse a loop to count down to | |
4080 | zero. Some targets also require the loop optimizer to add a | |
4081 | @code{REG_NONNEG} note to indicate that the iteration count is always | |
4082 | positive. This is needed if the target performs a signed loop | |
4083 | termination test. For example, the 68000 uses a pattern similar to the | |

4129 | The other two special looping patterns, @samp{doloop_begin} and | |
c21cd8b1 | 4130 | @samp{doloop_end}, are emitted by the loop optimizer for certain |
6e4fcc95 | 4131 | well-behaved loops with a finite number of loop iterations using |
ebb48a4d | 4132 | information collected during strength reduction. |
6e4fcc95 MH |
4133 | |
4134 | The @samp{doloop_end} pattern describes the actual looping instruction | |
4135 | (or the implicit looping operation) and the @samp{doloop_begin} pattern | |
c21cd8b1 | 4136 | is an optional companion pattern that can be used for initialization |
6e4fcc95 MH |
4137 | needed for some low-overhead looping instructions. |
4138 | ||
4139 | Note that some machines require the actual looping instruction to be | |
4140 | emitted at the top of the loop (e.g., the TMS320C3x/C4x DSPs). Emitting | |
4141 | the true RTL for a looping instruction at the top of the loop can cause | |
4142 | problems with flow analysis. So instead, a dummy @code{doloop} insn is | |
4143 | emitted at the end of the loop. The machine dependent reorg pass checks | |
4144 | for the presence of this @code{doloop} insn and then searches back to | |
4145 | the top of the loop, where it inserts the true looping insn (provided | |
4146 | there are no instructions in the loop which would cause problems). Any | |
4147 | additional labels can be emitted at this point. In addition, if the | |
4148 | desired special iteration counter register was not allocated, this | |
4149 | machine dependent reorg pass could emit a traditional compare and jump | |
4150 | instruction pair. | |
4151 | ||
4152 | The essential difference between the | |
4153 | @samp{decrement_and_branch_until_zero} and the @samp{doloop_end} | |
4154 | patterns is that the loop optimizer allocates an additional pseudo | |
4155 | register for the latter as an iteration counter. This pseudo register | |
4156 | cannot be used within the loop (i.e., general induction variables cannot | |
4157 | be derived from it), however, in many cases the loop induction variable | |
4158 | may become redundant and removed by the flow pass. | |

4305 | On some target machines, some standard pattern names for RTL generation | |
4306 | cannot be handled with single insn, but a sequence of RTL insns can | |
4307 | represent them. For these target machines, you can write a | |
161d7b59 | 4308 | @code{define_expand} to specify how to generate the sequence of RTL@. |
03dda8e3 RK |
4309 | |
4310 | @findex define_expand | |
4311 | A @code{define_expand} is an RTL expression that looks almost like a | |
4312 | @code{define_insn}; but, unlike the latter, a @code{define_expand} is used | |
4313 | only for RTL generation and it can produce more than one RTL insn. | |
4314 | ||
4315 | A @code{define_expand} RTX has four operands: | |
4316 | ||
4317 | @itemize @bullet | |
4318 | @item | |
4319 | The name. Each @code{define_expand} must have a name, since the only | |

4323 | The RTL template. This is a vector of RTL expressions representing |
4324 | a sequence of separate instructions. Unlike @code{define_insn}, there | |
4325 | is no implicit surrounding @code{PARALLEL}. | |
03dda8e3 RK |
4326 | |
4327 | @item | |
4328 | The condition, a string containing a C expression. This expression is | |
4329 | used to express how the availability of this pattern depends on | |
f0523f02 JM |
4330 | subclasses of target machine, selected by command-line options when GCC |
4331 | is run. This is just like the condition of a @code{define_insn} that | |
03dda8e3 RK |
4332 | has a standard name. Therefore, the condition (if present) may not |
4333 | depend on the data in the insn being matched, but only the | |
4334 | target-machine-type flags. The compiler needs to test these conditions | |
4335 | during initialization in order to learn exactly which named instructions | |
4336 | are available in a particular run. | |
4337 | ||
4338 | @item | |
4339 | The preparation statements, a string containing zero or more C | |
4340 | statements which are to be executed before RTL code is generated from | |
4341 | the RTL template. | |
4342 | ||
4343 | Usually these statements prepare temporary registers for use as | |
4344 | internal operands in the RTL template, but they can also generate RTL | |
4345 | insns directly by calling routines such as @code{emit_insn}, etc. | |
4346 | Any such insns precede the ones that come from the RTL template. | |
4347 | @end itemize | |
4348 | ||
4349 | Every RTL insn emitted by a @code{define_expand} must match some | |
4350 | @code{define_insn} in the machine description. Otherwise, the compiler | |
4351 | will crash when trying to generate code for the insn or trying to optimize | |
4352 | it. | |
4353 | ||
4354 | The RTL template, in addition to controlling generation of RTL insns, | |
4355 | also describes the operands that need to be specified when this pattern | |
4356 | is used. In particular, it gives a predicate for each operand. | |
4357 | ||
4358 | A true operand, which needs to be specified in order to generate RTL from | |
4359 | the pattern, should be described with a @code{match_operand} in its first | |
4360 | occurrence in the RTL template. This enters information on the operand's | |
f0523f02 | 4361 | predicate into the tables that record such things. GCC uses the |
03dda8e3 RK |
4362 | information to preload the operand into a register if that is required for |
4363 | valid RTL code. If the operand is referred to more than once, subsequent | |
4364 | references should use @code{match_dup}. | |
4365 | ||
4366 | The RTL template may also refer to internal ``operands'' which are | |
4367 | temporary registers or labels used only within the sequence made by the | |
4368 | @code{define_expand}. Internal operands are substituted into the RTL | |
4369 | template with @code{match_dup}, never with @code{match_operand}. The | |
4370 | values of the internal operands are not passed in as arguments by the | |
4371 | compiler when it requests use of this pattern. Instead, they are computed | |
4372 | within the pattern, in the preparation statements. These statements | |
4373 | compute the values and store them into the appropriate elements of | |
4374 | @code{operands} so that @code{match_dup} can find them. | |
4375 | ||
4376 | There are two special macros defined for use in the preparation statements: | |
4377 | @code{DONE} and @code{FAIL}. Use them with a following semicolon, | |
4378 | as a statement. | |
4379 | ||
4380 | @table @code | |
4381 | ||
4382 | @findex DONE | |
4383 | @item DONE | |
4384 | Use the @code{DONE} macro to end RTL generation for the pattern. The | |
4385 | only RTL insns resulting from the pattern on this occasion will be | |
4386 | those already emitted by explicit calls to @code{emit_insn} within the | |
4387 | preparation statements; the RTL template will not be generated. | |
4388 | ||
4389 | @findex FAIL | |
4390 | @item FAIL | |
4391 | Make the pattern fail on this occasion. When a pattern fails, it means | |
4392 | that the pattern was not truly available. The calling routines in the | |
4393 | compiler will try other strategies for code generation using other patterns. | |
4394 | ||
4395 | Failure is currently supported only for binary (addition, multiplication, | |
c771326b | 4396 | shifting, etc.) and bit-field (@code{extv}, @code{extzv}, and @code{insv}) |
03dda8e3 RK |
4397 | operations. |
4398 | @end table | |
4399 | ||
55e4756f DD |
4400 | If the preparation falls through (invokes neither @code{DONE} nor |
4401 | @code{FAIL}), then the @code{define_expand} acts like a | |
4402 | @code{define_insn} in that the RTL template is used to generate the | |
4403 | insn. | |
4404 | ||
4405 | The RTL template is not used for matching, only for generating the | |
4406 | initial insn list. If the preparation statement always invokes | |
4407 | @code{DONE} or @code{FAIL}, the RTL template may be reduced to a simple | |
4408 | list of operands, such as this example: | |

4454 | This example uses @code{define_expand} so that it can generate an RTL insn | |
4455 | for shifting when the shift-count is in the supported range of 0 to 3 but | |
4456 | fail in other cases where machine insns aren't available. When it fails, | |
4457 | the compiler tries another strategy using different patterns (such as, a | |
4458 | library call). | |
4459 | ||
4460 | If the compiler were able to handle nontrivial condition-strings in | |
4461 | patterns with names, then it would be possible to use a | |
4462 | @code{define_insn} in that case. Here is another case (zero-extension | |
4463 | on the 68000) which makes more use of the power of @code{define_expand}: | |
4464 | ||
4465 | @smallexample | |

4467 | [(set (match_operand:SI 0 "general_operand" "") | |

4476 | @end smallexample | |
4477 | ||
4478 | @noindent | |
4479 | @findex make_safe_from | |
4480 | Here two RTL insns are generated, one to clear the entire output operand | |
4481 | and the other to copy the input operand into its low half. This sequence | |
4482 | is incorrect if the input operand refers to [the old value of] the output | |
4483 | operand, so the preparation statement makes sure this isn't so. The | |
4484 | function @code{make_safe_from} copies the @code{operands[1]} into a | |
4485 | temporary register if it refers to @code{operands[0]}. It does this | |
4486 | by emitting another RTL insn. | |
4487 | ||
4488 | Finally, a third example shows the use of an internal operand. | |
4489 | Zero-extension on the SPUR chip is done by @code{and}-ing the result | |
4490 | against a halfword mask. But this mask cannot be represented by a | |
4491 | @code{const_int} because the constant value is too large to be legitimate | |
4492 | on this machine. So it must be copied into a register with | |

fae15c93 VM |
4524 | There are two cases where you should specify how to split a pattern |
4525 | into multiple insns. On machines that have instructions requiring | |
4526 | delay slots (@pxref{Delay Slots}) or that have instructions whose | |
4527 | output is not available for multiple cycles (@pxref{Processor pipeline | |
4528 | description}), the compiler phases that optimize these cases need to | |
4529 | be able to move insns into one-instruction delay slots. However, some | |
4530 | insns may generate more than one machine instruction. These insns | |
4531 | cannot be placed into a delay slot. | |
03dda8e3 RK |
4532 | |
4533 | Often you can rewrite the single insn as a list of individual insns, | |
4534 | each corresponding to one machine instruction. The disadvantage of | |
4535 | doing so is that it will cause the compilation to be slower and require | |
4536 | more space. If the resulting insns are too complex, it may also | |
4537 | suppress some optimizations. The compiler splits the insn if there is a | |
4538 | reason to believe that it might improve instruction or delay slot | |
4539 | scheduling. | |
4540 | ||
4541 | The insn combiner phase also splits putative insns. If three insns are | |
4542 | merged into one insn with a complex expression that cannot be matched by | |
4543 | some @code{define_insn} pattern, the combiner phase attempts to split | |
4544 | the complex pattern into two insns that are recognized. Usually it can | |
4545 | break the complex pattern into two patterns by splitting out some | |
4546 | subexpression. However, in some other cases, such as performing an | |
4547 | addition of a large constant in two insns on a RISC machine, the way to | |
4548 | split the addition into two insns is machine-dependent. | |
4549 | ||
f3a3d0d3 | 4550 | @findex define_split |
03dda8e3 RK |
4551 | The @code{define_split} definition tells the compiler how to split a |
4552 | complex insn into several simpler insns. It looks like this: | |
4553 | ||
4554 | @smallexample | |
4555 | (define_split | |
4556 | [@var{insn-pattern}] | |
4557 | "@var{condition}" | |
4558 | [@var{new-insn-pattern-1} | |
4559 | @var{new-insn-pattern-2} | |
4560 | @dots{}] | |
630d3d5a | 4561 | "@var{preparation-statements}") |
03dda8e3 RK |
4562 | @end smallexample |
4563 | ||
4564 | @var{insn-pattern} is a pattern that needs to be split and | |
4565 | @var{condition} is the final condition to be tested, as in a | |
4566 | @code{define_insn}. When an insn matching @var{insn-pattern} and | |
4567 | satisfying @var{condition} is found, it is replaced in the insn list | |
4568 | with the insns given by @var{new-insn-pattern-1}, | |
4569 | @var{new-insn-pattern-2}, etc. | |
4570 | ||
630d3d5a | 4571 | The @var{preparation-statements} are similar to those statements that |
03dda8e3 RK |
4572 | are specified for @code{define_expand} (@pxref{Expander Definitions}) |
4573 | and are executed before the new RTL is generated to prepare for the | |
4574 | generated code or emit some insns whose pattern is not fixed. Unlike | |
4575 | those in @code{define_expand}, however, these statements must not | |
4576 | generate any new pseudo-registers. Once reload has completed, they also | |
4577 | must not allocate any space in the stack frame. | |
4578 | ||
4579 | Patterns are matched against @var{insn-pattern} in two different | |
4580 | circumstances. If an insn needs to be split for delay slot scheduling | |
4581 | or insn scheduling, the insn is already known to be valid, which means | |
4582 | that it must have been matched by some @code{define_insn} and, if | |
df2a54e9 | 4583 | @code{reload_completed} is nonzero, is known to satisfy the constraints |
03dda8e3 RK |
4584 | of that @code{define_insn}. In that case, the new insn patterns must |
4585 | also be insns that are matched by some @code{define_insn} and, if | |
df2a54e9 | 4586 | @code{reload_completed} is nonzero, must also satisfy the constraints |
03dda8e3 RK |
4587 | of those definitions. |
4588 | ||
4589 | As an example of this usage of @code{define_split}, consider the following | |
4590 | example from @file{a29k.md}, which splits a @code{sign_extend} from | |
4591 | @code{HImode} to @code{SImode} into a pair of shift insns: | |
4592 | ||
4593 | @smallexample | |
4594 | (define_split | |
4595 | [(set (match_operand:SI 0 "gen_reg_operand" "") | |
4596 | (sign_extend:SI (match_operand:HI 1 "gen_reg_operand" "")))] | |
4597 | "" | |
4598 | [(set (match_dup 0) | |
4599 | (ashift:SI (match_dup 1) | |
4600 | (const_int 16))) | |
4601 | (set (match_dup 0) | |
4602 | (ashiftrt:SI (match_dup 0) | |
4603 | (const_int 16)))] | |
4604 | " | |
4605 | @{ operands[1] = gen_lowpart (SImode, operands[1]); @}") | |
4606 | @end smallexample | |
4607 | ||
4608 | When the combiner phase tries to split an insn pattern, it is always the | |
4609 | case that the pattern is @emph{not} matched by any @code{define_insn}. | |
4610 | The combiner pass first tries to split a single @code{set} expression | |
4611 | and then the same @code{set} expression inside a @code{parallel}, but | |
4612 | followed by a @code{clobber} of a pseudo-reg to use as a scratch | |
4613 | register. In these cases, the combiner expects exactly two new insn | |
4614 | patterns to be generated. It will verify that these patterns match some | |
4615 | @code{define_insn} definitions, so you need not do this test in the | |
4616 | @code{define_split} (of course, there is no point in writing a | |
4617 | @code{define_split} that will never produce insns that match). | |
4618 | ||
4619 | Here is an example of this use of @code{define_split}, taken from | |
4620 | @file{rs6000.md}: | |
4621 | ||
4622 | @smallexample | |

4628 | [(set (match_dup 0) (plus:SI (match_dup 1) (match_dup 3))) | |

4683 | The splitter is allowed to split jump instructions into sequence of |
4684 | jumps or create new jumps in while splitting non-jump instructions. As | |

4687 | |
4688 | Splitting of jump instruction into sequence that over by another jump | |
c21cd8b1 | 4689 | instruction is always valid, as compiler expect identical behavior of new |
6b24c259 JH |
4690 | jump. When new sequence contains multiple jump instructions or new labels, |
4691 | more assistance is needed. Splitter is required to create only unconditional | |
4692 | jumps, or simple conditional jump instructions. Additionally it must attach a | |

4695 | it was an simple conditional jump, @minus{}1 otherwise. To simplify | |

4891 | would match a peephole but no @code{define_insn} will cause a crash in code | |
4892 | generation in an unoptimized compilation, or at various optimization | |
4893 | stages. | |
4894 | ||
4895 | The operands of the insns are matched with @code{match_operands}, | |
4896 | @code{match_operator}, and @code{match_dup}, as usual. What is not | |
4897 | usual is that the operand numbers apply to all the insn patterns in the | |
4898 | definition. So, you can check for identical operands in two insns by | |
4899 | using @code{match_operand} in one insn and @code{match_dup} in the | |
4900 | other. | |
4901 | ||
4902 | The operand constraints used in @code{match_operand} patterns do not have | |
4903 | any direct effect on the applicability of the peephole, but they will | |
4904 | be validated afterward, so make sure your constraints are general enough | |
4905 | to apply whenever the peephole matches. If the peephole matches | |
4906 | but the constraints are not satisfied, the compiler will crash. | |
4907 | ||
4908 | It is safe to omit constraints in all the operands of the peephole; or | |
4909 | you can write constraints which serve as a double-check on the criteria | |
4910 | previously tested. | |
4911 | ||
4912 | Once a sequence of insns matches the patterns, the @var{condition} is | |
4913 | checked. This is a C expression which makes the final decision whether to | |
4914 | perform the optimization (we do so if the expression is nonzero). If | |
4915 | @var{condition} is omitted (in other words, the string is empty) then the | |
4916 | optimization is applied to every sequence of insns that matches the | |
4917 | patterns. | |
4918 | ||
4919 | The defined peephole optimizations are applied after register allocation | |
4920 | is complete. Therefore, the peephole definition can check which | |
4921 | operands have ended up in which kinds of registers, just by looking at | |
4922 | the operands. | |
4923 | ||
4924 | @findex prev_active_insn | |
4925 | The way to refer to the operands in @var{condition} is to write | |
4926 | @code{operands[@var{i}]} for operand number @var{i} (as matched by | |
4927 | @code{(match_operand @var{i} @dots{})}). Use the variable @code{insn} | |
4928 | to refer to the last of the insns being matched; use | |
4929 | @code{prev_active_insn} to find the preceding insns. | |
4930 | ||
4931 | @findex dead_or_set_p | |
4932 | When optimizing computations with intermediate results, you can use | |
4933 | @var{condition} to match only when the intermediate results are not used | |
4934 | elsewhere. Use the C expression @code{dead_or_set_p (@var{insn}, | |
4935 | @var{op})}, where @var{insn} is the insn in which you expect the value | |
4936 | to be used for the last time (from the value of @code{insn}, together | |
4937 | with use of @code{prev_nonnote_insn}), and @var{op} is the intermediate | |
bd819a4a | 4938 | value (from @code{operands[@var{i}]}). |
f3a3d0d3 RH |
4939 | |
4940 | Applying the optimization means replacing the sequence of insns with one | |
4941 | new insn. The @var{template} controls ultimate output of assembler code | |
4942 | for this combined insn. It works exactly like the template of a | |
4943 | @code{define_insn}. Operand numbers in this template are the same ones | |
4944 | used in matching the original sequence of insns. | |
4945 | ||
4946 | The result of a defined peephole optimizer does not need to match any of | |
4947 | the insn patterns in the machine description; it does not even have an | |
4948 | opportunity to match them. The peephole optimizer definition itself serves | |
4949 | as the insn pattern to control how the insn is output. | |
4950 | ||
4951 | Defined peephole optimizers are run as assembler code is being output, | |
4952 | so the insns they produce are never combined or rearranged in any way. | |

5004 | If a peephole matches a sequence including one or more jump insns, you must | |
5005 | take account of the flags such as @code{CC_REVERSED} which specify that the | |
5006 | condition codes are represented in an unusual manner. The compiler | |
5007 | automatically alters any ordinary conditional jumps which occur in such | |
5008 | situations, but the compiler cannot alter jumps which have been replaced by | |
5009 | peephole optimizations. So it is up to you to alter the assembler code | |
5010 | that the peephole produces. Supply C code to write the assembler output, | |
5011 | and in this C code check the condition code status flags and change the | |
5012 | assembler code as appropriate. | |
5013 | @end ignore | |
5014 | ||
5015 | @var{insn-pattern-1} and so on look @emph{almost} like the second | |
5016 | operand of @code{define_insn}. There is one important difference: the | |
5017 | second operand of @code{define_insn} consists of one or more RTX's | |
5018 | enclosed in square brackets. Usually, there is only one: then the same | |
5019 | action can be written as an element of a @code{define_peephole}. But | |
5020 | when there are multiple actions in a @code{define_insn}, they are | |
5021 | implicitly enclosed in a @code{parallel}. Then you must explicitly | |
5022 | write the @code{parallel}, and the square brackets within it, in the | |
5023 | @code{define_peephole}. Thus, if an insn pattern looks like this, | |
5024 | ||
5025 | @smallexample | |
5026 | (define_insn "divmodsi4" | |
5027 | [(set (match_operand:SI 0 "general_operand" "=d") | |

5075 | The definition is almost identical to @code{define_split} | |
5076 | (@pxref{Insn Splitting}) except that the pattern to match is not a | |
5077 | single instruction, but a sequence of instructions. | |
5078 | ||
5079 | It is possible to request additional scratch registers for use in the | |
5080 | output template. If appropriate registers are not free, the pattern | |
5081 | will simply not match. | |
5082 | ||
5083 | @findex match_scratch | |
5084 | @findex match_dup | |
5085 | Scratch registers are requested with a @code{match_scratch} pattern at | |
5086 | the top level of the input pattern. The allocated register (initially) will | |
5087 | be dead at the point requested within the original sequence. If the scratch | |
5088 | is used at more than a single point, a @code{match_dup} pattern at the | |
5089 | top level of the input pattern marks the last position in the input sequence | |
5090 | at which the register must be available. | |

5109 | ||
5110 | @noindent | |
5111 | This pattern tries to split a load from its use in the hopes that we'll be | |
5112 | able to schedule around the memory load latency. It allocates a single | |
5113 | @code{SImode} register of class @code{GENERAL_REGS} (@code{"r"}) that needs | |

5233 | @subsection Attribute Expressions | |
5234 | @cindex attribute expressions | |
5235 | ||
5236 | RTL expressions used to define attributes use the codes described above | |
5237 | plus a few specific to attribute definitions, to be discussed below. | |
5238 | Attribute value expressions must have one of the following forms: | |
5239 | ||
5240 | @table @code | |
5241 | @cindex @code{const_int} and attributes | |
5242 | @item (const_int @var{i}) | |
5243 | The integer @var{i} specifies the value of a numeric attribute. @var{i} | |
5244 | must be non-negative. | |
5245 | ||
5246 | The value of a numeric attribute can be specified either with a | |
00bc45c1 RH |
5247 | @code{const_int}, or as an integer represented as a string in |
5248 | @code{const_string}, @code{eq_attr} (see below), @code{attr}, | |
5249 | @code{symbol_ref}, simple arithmetic expressions, and @code{set_attr} | |
5250 | overrides on specific instructions (@pxref{Tagging Insns}). | |
03dda8e3 RK |
5251 | |
5252 | @cindex @code{const_string} and attributes | |
5253 | @item (const_string @var{value}) | |
5254 | The string @var{value} specifies a constant attribute value. | |
5255 | If @var{value} is specified as @samp{"*"}, it means that the default value of | |
5256 | the attribute is to be used for the insn containing this expression. | |
5257 | @samp{"*"} obviously cannot be used in the @var{default} expression | |
bd819a4a | 5258 | of a @code{define_attr}. |
03dda8e3 RK |
5259 | |
5260 | If the attribute whose value is being specified is numeric, @var{value} | |
5261 | must be a string containing a non-negative integer (normally | |
5262 | @code{const_int} would be used in this case). Otherwise, it must | |
5263 | contain one of the valid values for the attribute. | |
5264 | ||
5265 | @cindex @code{if_then_else} and attributes | |
5266 | @item (if_then_else @var{test} @var{true-value} @var{false-value}) | |
5267 | @var{test} specifies an attribute test, whose format is defined below. | |
5268 | The value of this expression is @var{true-value} if @var{test} is true, | |
5269 | otherwise it is @var{false-value}. | |
5270 | ||
5271 | @cindex @code{cond} and attributes | |
5272 | @item (cond [@var{test1} @var{value1} @dots{}] @var{default}) | |
5273 | The first operand of this expression is a vector containing an even | |
5274 | number of expressions and consisting of pairs of @var{test} and @var{value} | |
5275 | expressions. The value of the @code{cond} expression is that of the | |
5276 | @var{value} corresponding to the first true @var{test} expression. If | |
5277 | none of the @var{test} expressions are true, the value of the @code{cond} | |
5278 | expression is that of the @var{default} expression. | |
5279 | @end table | |
5280 | ||
5281 | @var{test} expressions can have one of the following forms: | |
5282 | ||

5353 | @var{value} is a string that is either a valid value for attribute | |
5354 | @var{name}, a comma-separated list of values, or @samp{!} followed by a | |
5355 | value or list. If @var{value} does not begin with a @samp{!}, this | |
5356 | test is true if the value of the @var{name} attribute of the current | |
5357 | insn is in the list specified by @var{value}. If @var{value} begins | |
5358 | with a @samp{!}, this test is true if the attribute's value is | |
5359 | @emph{not} in the specified list. | |
5360 | ||
5361 | For example, | |
5362 | ||
5363 | @smallexample | |
5364 | (eq_attr "type" "load,store") | |
5365 | @end smallexample | |

5375 | value of the compiler variable @code{which_alternative} | |
5376 | (@pxref{Output Statement}) and the values must be small integers. For | |
bd819a4a | 5377 | example, |
03dda8e3 RK |
5378 | |
5379 | @smallexample | |

5388 | (eq (symbol_ref "which_alternative") (const_int 3))) | |
5389 | @end smallexample | |
5390 | ||
5391 | Note that, for most attributes, an @code{eq_attr} test is simplified in cases | |
5392 | where the value of the attribute being tested is known for all insns matching | |

5398 | specified by @var{name} is true for the @code{insn} currently being | |
5399 | scheduled. | |

5401 | @var{name} is a string specifying one of a fixed set of flags to test. | |

5403 | direction of a conditional branch. Test the flags @code{very_likely}, | |
5404 | @code{likely}, @code{very_unlikely}, and @code{unlikely} to determine | |
5405 | if a conditional branch is expected to be taken. | |
5406 | ||
5407 | If the @code{very_likely} flag is true, then the @code{likely} flag is also | |
5408 | true. Likewise for the @code{very_unlikely} and @code{unlikely} flags. | |
5409 | ||
5410 | This example describes a conditional branch delay slot which | |
5411 | can be nullified for forward branches that are taken (annul-true) or | |
5412 | for backward branches which are not taken (annul-false). | |

5420 | (attr_flag "backward"))]) | |
5421 | @end smallexample | |
5422 | ||
5423 | The @code{forward} and @code{backward} flags are false if the current | |

5444 | @subsection Assigning Attribute Values to Insns | |
5445 | @cindex tagging insns | |
5446 | @cindex assigning attribute values to insns | |
5447 | ||
5448 | The value assigned to an attribute of an insn is primarily determined by | |
5449 | which pattern is matched by that insn (or which @code{define_peephole} | |
5450 | generated it). Every @code{define_insn} and @code{define_peephole} can | |
5451 | have an optional last argument to specify the values of attributes for | |
5452 | matching insns. The value of any attribute not specified in a particular | |
5453 | insn is set to the default value for that attribute, as specified in its | |
5454 | @code{define_attr}. Extensive use of default values for attributes | |
5455 | permits the specification of the values for only one or two attributes | |
5456 | in the definition of most insn patterns, as seen in the example in the | |
bd819a4a | 5457 | next section. |
03dda8e3 RK |
5458 | |
5459 | The optional last argument of @code{define_insn} and | |
5460 | @code{define_peephole} is a vector of expressions, each of which defines | |
5461 | the value for a single attribute. The most general way of assigning an | |
5462 | attribute's value is to use a @code{set} expression whose first operand is an | |
5463 | @code{attr} expression giving the name of the attribute being set. The | |
5464 | second operand of the @code{set} is an attribute expression | |
bd819a4a | 5465 | (@pxref{Expressions}) giving the value of the attribute. |
03dda8e3 RK |
5466 | |
5467 | When the attribute value depends on the @samp{alternative} attribute | |
5468 | (i.e., which is the applicable alternative in the constraint of the | |
5469 | insn), the @code{set_attr_alternative} expression can be used. It | |
5470 | allows the specification of a vector of attribute expressions, one for | |
5471 | each alternative. | |
5472 | ||
5473 | @findex set_attr | |
5474 | When the generality of arbitrary attribute expressions is not required, | |
5475 | the simpler @code{set_attr} expression can be used, which allows | |
5476 | specifying a string giving either a single attribute value or a list | |
5477 | of attribute values, one for each alternative. | |
5478 | ||
5479 | The form of each of the above specifications is shown below. In each case, | |
5480 | @var{name} is a string specifying the attribute to be set. | |
5481 | ||
5482 | @table @code | |
5483 | @item (set_attr @var{name} @var{value-string}) | |
5484 | @var{value-string} is either a string giving the desired attribute value, | |
5485 | or a string containing a comma-separated list giving the values for | |
5486 | succeeding alternatives. The number of elements must match the number | |
5487 | of alternatives in the constraint of the insn pattern. | |
5488 | ||
5489 | Note that it may be useful to specify @samp{*} for some alternative, in | |
5490 | which case the attribute will assume its default value for insns matching | |
5491 | that alternative. | |
5492 | ||
5493 | @findex set_attr_alternative | |
5494 | @item (set_attr_alternative @var{name} [@var{value1} @var{value2} @dots{}]) | |
5495 | Depending on the alternative of the insn, the value will be one of the | |
5496 | specified values. This is a shorthand for using a @code{cond} with | |
5497 | tests on the @samp{alternative} attribute. | |
5498 | ||
5499 | @findex attr | |
5500 | @item (set (attr @var{name}) @var{value}) | |
5501 | The first operand of this @code{set} must be the special RTL expression | |
5502 | @code{attr}, whose sole operand is a string giving the name of the | |
5503 | attribute being set. @var{value} is the value of the attribute. | |
5504 | @end table | |
5505 | ||
5506 | The following shows three different ways of representing the same | |
5507 | attribute value specification: | |
5508 | ||
5509 | @smallexample | |
5510 | (set_attr "type" "load,store,arith") | |
5511 | ||
5512 | (set_attr_alternative "type" | |
5513 | [(const_string "load") (const_string "store") | |
5514 | (const_string "arith")]) | |
5515 | ||
5516 | (set (attr "type") | |
5517 | (cond [(eq_attr "alternative" "1") (const_string "load") | |
5518 | (eq_attr "alternative" "2") (const_string "store")] | |
5519 | (const_string "arith"))) | |
5520 | @end smallexample | |
5521 | ||
5522 | @need 1000 | |
5523 | @findex define_asm_attributes | |
5524 | The @code{define_asm_attributes} expression provides a mechanism to | |
5525 | specify the attributes assigned to insns produced from an @code{asm} | |
5526 | statement. It has the form: | |
5527 | ||
5528 | @smallexample | |
5529 | (define_asm_attributes [@var{attr-sets}]) | |
5530 | @end smallexample | |
5531 | ||
5532 | @noindent | |
5533 | where @var{attr-sets} is specified the same as for both the | |
5534 | @code{define_insn} and the @code{define_peephole} expressions. | |
5535 | ||
5536 | These values will typically be the ``worst case'' attribute values. For | |
5537 | example, they might indicate that the condition code will be clobbered. | |
5538 | ||
5539 | A specification for a @code{length} attribute is handled specially. The | |
5540 | way to compute the length of an @code{asm} insn is to multiply the | |
5541 | length specified in the expression @code{define_asm_attributes} by the | |
5542 | number of machine instructions specified in the @code{asm} statement, | |
5543 | determined by counting the number of semicolons and newlines in the | |
5544 | string. Therefore, the value of the @code{length} attribute specified | |
5545 | in a @code{define_asm_attributes} should be the maximum possible length | |
5546 | of a single machine instruction. | |

5551 | @subsection Example of Attribute Specifications | |
5552 | @cindex attribute specifications example | |
5553 | @cindex attribute specifications | |
5554 | ||
5555 | The judicious use of defaulting is important in the efficient use of | |
5556 | insn attributes. Typically, insns are divided into @dfn{types} and an | |
5557 | attribute, customarily called @code{type}, is used to represent this | |
5558 | value. This attribute is normally used only to define the default value | |
5559 | for other attributes. An example will clarify this usage. | |
5560 | ||
5561 | Assume we have a RISC machine with a condition code and in which only | |
5562 | full-word operations are performed in registers. Let us assume that we | |
5563 | can divide all insns into loads, stores, (integer) arithmetic | |
5564 | operations, floating point operations, and branches. | |
5565 | ||
5566 | Here we will concern ourselves with determining the effect of an insn on | |
5567 | the condition code and will limit ourselves to the following possible | |
5568 | effects: The condition code can be set unpredictably (clobbered), not | |
5569 | be changed, be set to agree with the results of the operation, or only | |
5570 | changed if the item previously set into the condition code has been | |
5571 | modified. | |
5572 | ||
5573 | Here is part of a sample @file{md} file for such a machine: | |
5574 | ||
5575 | @smallexample | |
5576 | (define_attr "type" "load,store,arith,fp,branch" (const_string "arith")) | |
5577 | ||
5578 | (define_attr "cc" "clobber,unchanged,set,change0" | |
5579 | (cond [(eq_attr "type" "load") | |
5580 | (const_string "change0") | |
5581 | (eq_attr "type" "store,branch") | |
5582 | (const_string "unchanged") | |
5583 | (eq_attr "type" "arith") | |
5584 | (if_then_else (match_operand:SI 0 "" "") | |
5585 | (const_string "set") | |
5586 | (const_string "clobber"))] | |
5587 | (const_string "clobber"))) | |
5588 | ||
5589 | (define_insn "" | |
5590 | [(set (match_operand:SI 0 "general_operand" "=r,r,m") | |

5596 | store %0,%1" | |
5597 | [(set_attr "type" "arith,load,store")]) | |
5598 | @end smallexample | |
5599 | ||
5600 | Note that we assume in the above example that arithmetic operations | |
5601 | performed on quantities smaller than a machine word clobber the condition | |
5602 | code since they will set the condition code to a value corresponding to the | |
5603 | full-word result. | |

5610 | @cindex computing the length of an insn | |
5611 | ||
5612 | For many machines, multiple types of branch instructions are provided, each | |
5613 | for different length branch displacements. In most cases, the assembler | |
5614 | will choose the correct instruction to use. However, when the assembler | |
5615 | cannot do so, GCC can when a special attribute, the @samp{length} | |
5616 | attribute, is defined. This attribute must be defined to have numeric | |
5617 | values by specifying a null string in its @code{define_attr}. | |
5618 | ||
5619 | In the case of the @samp{length} attribute, two additional forms of | |
5620 | arithmetic terms are allowed in test expressions: | |
5621 | ||
5622 | @table @code | |
5623 | @cindex @code{match_dup} and attributes | |
5624 | @item (match_dup @var{n}) | |
5625 | This refers to the address of operand @var{n} of the current insn, which | |
5626 | must be a @code{label_ref}. | |
5627 | ||
5628 | @cindex @code{pc} and attributes | |
5629 | @item (pc) | |
5630 | This refers to the address of the @emph{current} insn. It might have | |
5631 | been more consistent with other usage to make this the address of the | |
5632 | @emph{next} insn but this would be confusing because the length of the | |
5633 | current insn is to be computed. | |
5634 | @end table | |
5635 | ||
5636 | @cindex @code{addr_vec}, length of | |
5637 | @cindex @code{addr_diff_vec}, length of | |
5638 | For normal insns, the length will be determined by value of the | |
5639 | @samp{length} attribute. In the case of @code{addr_vec} and | |
5640 | @code{addr_diff_vec} insn patterns, the length is computed as | |
5641 | the number of vectors multiplied by the size of each vector. | |
5642 | ||
5643 | Lengths are measured in addressable storage units (bytes). | |
5644 | ||
5645 | The following macros can be used to refine the length computation: | |
5646 | ||
5647 | @table @code | |
03dda8e3 RK |
5648 | @findex ADJUST_INSN_LENGTH |
5649 | @item ADJUST_INSN_LENGTH (@var{insn}, @var{length}) | |
5650 | If defined, modifies the length assigned to instruction @var{insn} as a | |
5651 | function of the context in which it is used. @var{length} is an lvalue | |
5652 | that contains the initially computed length of the insn and should be | |
a8aa4e0b | 5653 | updated with the correct length of the insn. |
03dda8e3 RK |
5654 | |
5655 | This macro will normally not be required. A case in which it is | |
161d7b59 | 5656 | required is the ROMP@. On this machine, the size of an @code{addr_vec} |
03dda8e3 RK |
5657 | insn must be increased by two to compensate for the fact that alignment |
5658 | may be required. | |
5659 | @end table | |
5660 | ||
5661 | @findex get_attr_length | |
5662 | The routine that returns @code{get_attr_length} (the value of the | |
5663 | @code{length} attribute) can be used by the output routine to | |
5664 | determine the form of the branch instruction to be written, as the | |
5665 | example below illustrates. | |
5666 | ||
5667 | As an example of the specification of variable-length branches, consider | |
5668 | the IBM 360. If we adopt the convention that a register will be set to | |
5669 | the starting address of a function, we can jump to labels within 4k of | |
5670 | the start using a four-byte instruction. Otherwise, we need a six-byte | |
5671 | sequence to load the address from memory and then branch to it. | |
5672 | ||
5673 | On such a machine, a pattern for a branch instruction might be specified | |
5674 | as follows: | |
5675 | ||
5676 | @smallexample | |
5677 | (define_insn "jump" | |
5678 | [(set (pc) | |

5694 | @subsection Constant Attributes | |
5695 | @cindex constant attributes | |
5696 | ||
5697 | A special form of @code{define_attr}, where the expression for the | |
5698 | default value is a @code{const} expression, indicates an attribute that | |
5699 | is constant for a given run of the compiler. Constant attributes may be | |
5700 | used to specify which variety of processor is used. For example, | |
5701 | ||
5702 | @smallexample | |
5703 | (define_attr "cpu" "m88100,m88110,m88000" | |
5704 | (const | |
5705 | (cond [(symbol_ref "TARGET_88100") (const_string "m88100") | |
5706 | (symbol_ref "TARGET_88110") (const_string "m88110")] | |

5708 | ||

5714 | @end smallexample | |
5715 | ||
5716 | The routine generated for constant attributes has no parameters as it | |
5717 | does not depend on any particular insn. RTL expressions used to define | |
5718 | the value of a constant attribute may use the @code{symbol_ref} form, | |
5719 | but may not use either the @code{match_operand} form or @code{eq_attr} | |
5720 | forms involving insn attributes. | |

5724 | @node Delay Slots |
5725 | @subsection Delay Slot Scheduling | |
5726 | @cindex delay slots, defining | |
5727 | ||
5728 | The insn attribute mechanism can be used to specify the requirements for | |
5729 | delay slots, if any, on a target machine. An instruction is said to | |
5730 | require a @dfn{delay slot} if some instructions that are physically | |
5731 | after the instruction are executed as if they were located before it. | |
5732 | Classic examples are branch and call instructions, which often execute | |
5733 | the following instruction before the branch or call is performed. | |
5734 | ||
5735 | On some machines, conditional branch instructions can optionally | |
5736 | @dfn{annul} instructions in the delay slot. This means that the | |
5737 | instruction will not be executed for certain branch outcomes. Both | |
5738 | instructions that annul if the branch is true and instructions that | |
5739 | annul if the branch is false are supported. | |
5740 | ||
5741 | Delay slot scheduling differs from instruction scheduling in that | |
5742 | determining whether an instruction needs a delay slot is dependent only | |
5743 | on the type of instruction being generated, not on data flow between the | |
5744 | instructions. See the next section for a discussion of data-dependent | |
5745 | instruction scheduling. | |
5746 | ||
5747 | @findex define_delay | |
5748 | The requirement of an insn needing one or more delay slots is indicated | |
5749 | via the @code{define_delay} expression. It has the following form: | |
5750 | ||
5751 | @smallexample | |
5752 | (define_delay @var{test} | |
5753 | [@var{delay-1} @var{annul-true-1} @var{annul-false-1} | |
5754 | @var{delay-2} @var{annul-true-2} @var{annul-false-2} | |
5755 | @dots{}]) | |
5756 | @end smallexample | |
5757 | ||
5758 | @var{test} is an attribute test that indicates whether this | |
5759 | @code{define_delay} applies to a particular insn. If so, the number of | |
5760 | required delay slots is determined by the length of the vector specified | |
5761 | as the second argument. An insn placed in delay slot @var{n} must | |
5762 | satisfy attribute test @var{delay-n}. @var{annul-true-n} is an | |
5763 | attribute test that specifies which insns may be annulled if the branch | |
5764 | is true. Similarly, @var{annul-false-n} specifies which insns in the | |
5765 | delay slot may be annulled if the branch is false. If annulling is not | |
bd819a4a | 5766 | supported for that delay slot, @code{(nil)} should be coded. |
03dda8e3 RK |
5767 | |
5768 | For example, in the common case where branch and call insns require | |
5769 | a single delay slot, which may contain any insn other than a branch or | |
5770 | call, the following would be placed in the @file{md} file: | |
5771 | ||
5772 | @smallexample | |
5773 | (define_delay (eq_attr "type" "branch,call") | |
5774 | [(eq_attr "type" "!branch,call") (nil) (nil)]) | |
5775 | @end smallexample | |
5776 | ||
5777 | Multiple @code{define_delay} expressions may be specified. In this | |
5778 | case, each such expression specifies different delay slot requirements | |
5779 | and there must be no insn for which tests in two @code{define_delay} | |
5780 | expressions are both true. | |
5781 | ||
5782 | For example, if we have a machine that requires one delay slot for branches | |
5783 | but two for calls, no delay slot can contain a branch or call insn, | |
5784 | and any valid insn in the delay slot for the branch can be annulled if the | |
5785 | branch is true, we might represent this as follows: | |
5786 | ||
5787 | @smallexample | |
5788 | (define_delay (eq_attr "type" "branch") | |
5789 | [(eq_attr "type" "!branch,call") | |
5790 | (eq_attr "type" "!branch,call") | |
5791 | (nil)]) | |
5792 | ||
5793 | (define_delay (eq_attr "type" "call") | |
5794 | [(eq_attr "type" "!branch,call") (nil) (nil) | |
5795 | (eq_attr "type" "!branch,call") (nil) (nil)]) | |

ef261fee | 5817 | To achieve better performance, most modern processors |
fae15c93 VM |
5818 | (super-pipelined, superscalar @acronym{RISC}, and @acronym{VLIW} |
5819 | processors) have many @dfn{functional units} on which several | |
5820 | instructions can be executed simultaneously. An instruction starts | |
5821 | execution if its issue conditions are satisfied. If not, the | |
ef261fee | 5822 | instruction is stalled until its conditions are satisfied. Such |
fae15c93 VM |
5823 | @dfn{interlock (pipeline) delay} causes interruption of the fetching |
5824 | of successor instructions (or demands nop instructions, e.g. for some | |
5825 | MIPS processors). | |
5826 | ||
5827 | There are two major kinds of interlock delays in modern processors. | |
5828 | The first one is a data dependence delay determining @dfn{instruction | |
5829 | latency time}. The instruction execution is not started until all | |
5830 | source data have been evaluated by prior instructions (there are more | |
5831 | complex cases when the instruction execution starts even when the data | |
c0478a66 | 5832 | are not available but will be ready in given time after the |
fae15c93 VM |
5833 | instruction execution start). Taking the data dependence delays into |
5834 | account is simple. The data dependence (true, output, and | |
5835 | anti-dependence) delay between two instructions is given by a | |
5836 | constant. In most cases this approach is adequate. The second kind | |
5837 | of interlock delays is a reservation delay. The reservation delay | |
5838 | means that two instructions under execution will be in need of shared | |
5839 | processors resources, i.e. buses, internal registers, and/or | |
5840 | functional units, which are reserved for some time. Taking this kind | |
5841 | of delay into account is complex especially for modern @acronym{RISC} | |
5842 | processors. | |
5843 | ||
5844 | The task of exploiting more processor parallelism is solved by an | |
ef261fee | 5845 | instruction scheduler. For a better solution to this problem, the |
fae15c93 | 5846 | instruction scheduler has to have an adequate description of the |
fa0aee89 PB |
5847 | processor parallelism (or @dfn{pipeline description}). GCC |
5848 | machine descriptions describe processor parallelism and functional | |
5849 | unit reservations for groups of instructions with the aid of | |
5850 | @dfn{regular expressions}. | |
ef261fee R |
5851 | |
5852 | The GCC instruction scheduler uses a @dfn{pipeline hazard recognizer} to | |
fae15c93 | 5853 | figure out the possibility of the instruction issue by the processor |
ef261fee R |
5854 | on a given simulated processor cycle. The pipeline hazard recognizer is |
5855 | automatically generated from the processor pipeline description. The | |
fa0aee89 PB |
5856 | pipeline hazard recognizer generated from the machine description |
5857 | is based on a deterministic finite state automaton (@acronym{DFA}): | |
5858 | the instruction issue is possible if there is a transition from one | |
5859 | automaton state to another one. This algorithm is very fast, and | |
5860 | furthermore, its speed is not dependent on processor | |
5861 | complexity@footnote{However, the size of the automaton depends on | |
5862 | processor complexity. To limit this effect, machine descriptions | |
5863 | can split orthogonal parts of the machine description among several | |
5864 | automata: but then, since each of these must be stepped independently, | |
5865 | this does cause a small decrease in the algorithm's performance.}. | |

5875 | The following optional construction describes names of automata | |
5876 | generated and used for the pipeline hazards recognition. Sometimes | |
5877 | the generated finite state automaton used by the pipeline hazard | |
ef261fee | 5878 | recognizer is large. If we use more than one automaton and bind functional |
daf2f129 | 5879 | units to the automata, the total size of the automata is usually |
fae15c93 VM |
5880 | less than the size of the single automaton. If there is no one such |
5881 | construction, only one finite state automaton is generated. | |

c62347f0 | 5889 | The automaton name is used in the constructions @code{define_cpu_unit} and |

5903 | for other goals. | |
5904 | ||
ef261fee | 5905 | @var{automaton-name} is a string giving the name of the automaton with |
fae15c93 VM |
5906 | which the unit is bound. The automaton should be described in |
5907 | construction @code{define_automaton}. You should give | |
5908 | @dfn{automaton-name}, if there is a defined automaton. | |
5909 | ||
30028c85 VM |
5910 | The assignment of units to automata are constrained by the uses of the |
5911 | units in insn reservations. The most important constraint is: if a | |
5912 | unit reservation is present on a particular cycle of an alternative | |
5913 | for an insn reservation, then some unit from the same automaton must | |
5914 | be present on the same cycle for the other alternatives of the insn | |
5915 | reservation. The rest of the constraints are mentioned in the | |
5916 | description of the subsequent constructions. | |

fae15c93 VM |
5918 | @findex define_query_cpu_unit |

5920 | The following construction describes CPU functional units analogously | |
30028c85 VM |
5921 | to @code{define_cpu_unit}. The reservation of such units can be |
5922 | queried for an automaton state. The instruction scheduler never | |
5923 | queries reservation of functional units for given automaton state. So | |
5924 | as a rule, you don't need this construction. This construction could | |
5925 | be used for future code generation goals (e.g. to generate | |
5926 | @acronym{VLIW} insn templates). | |

ef261fee | 5942 | The following construction is the major one to describe pipeline |

5943 | characteristics of an instruction. |
5944 | ||
5945 | @smallexample | |
5946 | (define_insn_reservation @var{insn-name} @var{default_latency} | |
5947 | @var{condition} @var{regexp}) | |
5948 | @end smallexample | |
5949 | ||
5950 | @var{default_latency} is a number giving latency time of the | |
5951 | instruction. There is an important difference between the old | |
5952 | description and the automaton based pipeline description. The latency | |
5953 | time is used for all dependencies when we use the old description. In | |
ef261fee R |
5954 | the automaton based pipeline description, the given latency time is only |
5955 | used for true dependencies. The cost of anti-dependencies is always | |
fae15c93 VM |
5956 | zero and the cost of output dependencies is the difference between |
5957 | latency times of the producing and consuming insns (if the difference | |
ef261fee R |
5958 | is negative, the cost is considered to be zero). You can always |
5959 | change the default costs for any description by using the target hook | |
fae15c93 VM |
5960 | @code{TARGET_SCHED_ADJUST_COST} (@pxref{Scheduling}). |
5961 | ||
cc6a602b | 5962 | @var{insn-name} is a string giving the internal name of the insn. The |
fae15c93 VM |
5963 | internal names are used in constructions @code{define_bypass} and in |
5964 | the automaton description file generated for debugging. The internal | |
ef261fee | 5965 | name has nothing in common with the names in @code{define_insn}. It is a |
fae15c93 VM |
5966 | good practice to use insn classes described in the processor manual. |
5967 | ||
5968 | @var{condition} defines what RTL insns are described by this | |
5969 | construction. You should remember that you will be in trouble if | |
5970 | @var{condition} for two or more different | |
5971 | @code{define_insn_reservation} constructions is TRUE for an insn. In | |
5972 | this case what reservation will be used for the insn is not defined. | |
5973 | Such cases are not checked during generation of the pipeline hazards | |
5974 | recognizer because in general recognizing that two conditions may have | |
5975 | the same value is quite difficult (especially if the conditions | |
5976 | contain @code{symbol_ref}). It is also not checked during the | |
5977 | pipeline hazard recognizer work because it would slow down the | |
5978 | recognizer considerably. | |
5979 | ||
ef261fee | 5980 | @var{regexp} is a string describing the reservation of the cpu's functional |
fae15c93 VM |
5981 | units by the instruction. The reservations are described by a regular |
5982 | expression according to the following syntax: | |

6081 | @acronym{VLIW} processors, or more precisely, to describe a placement | |
6082 | of small instructions into @acronym{VLIW} instruction slots. They | |
6083 | can be used for @acronym{RISC} processors, too. | |

6093 | @var{unit-names} is a string giving names of functional units | |
6094 | separated by commas. | |
6095 | ||
30028c85 VM |
6096 | @var{patterns} is a string giving patterns of functional units |
6097 | separated by comma. Currently pattern is is one unit or units | |
6098 | separated by white-spaces. | |
6099 | ||
fae15c93 VM |
6100 | The first construction (@samp{exclusion_set}) means that each |
6101 | functional unit in the first string can not be reserved simultaneously | |
6102 | with a unit whose name is in the second string and vice versa. For | |
6103 | example, the construction is useful for describing processors | |
6104 | (e.g. some SPARC processors) with a fully pipelined floating point | |
6105 | functional unit which can execute simultaneously only single floating | |
6106 | point insns or only double floating point insns. | |
6107 | ||
6108 | The second construction (@samp{presence_set}) means that each | |
6109 | functional unit in the first string can not be reserved unless at | |
30028c85 VM |
6110 | least one of pattern of units whose names are in the second string is |
6111 | reserved. This is an asymmetric relation. For example, it is useful | |
6112 | for description that @acronym{VLIW} @samp{slot1} is reserved after | |
6113 | @samp{slot0} reservation. We could describe it by the following | |
6114 | construction | |
6115 | ||
6116 | @smallexample | |
6117 | (presence_set "slot1" "slot0") | |
6118 | @end smallexample | |
6119 | ||
6120 | Or @samp{slot1} is reserved only after @samp{slot0} and unit @samp{b0} | |
6121 | reservation. In this case we could write | |
6122 | ||
6123 | @smallexample | |
6124 | (presence_set "slot1" "slot0 b0") | |
6125 | @end smallexample | |
6126 | ||
6127 | The third construction (@samp{final_presence_set}) is analogous to | |
6128 | @samp{presence_set}. The difference between them is when checking is | |
6129 | done. When an instruction is issued in given automaton state | |
6130 | reflecting all current and planned unit reservations, the automaton | |
6131 | state is changed. The first state is a source state, the second one | |
6132 | is a result state. Checking for @samp{presence_set} is done on the | |
6133 | source state reservation, checking for @samp{final_presence_set} is | |
6134 | done on the result reservation. This construction is useful to | |
6135 | describe a reservation which is actually two subsequent reservations. | |
6136 | For example, if we use | |
6137 | ||
6138 | @smallexample | |
6139 | (presence_set "slot1" "slot0") | |
6140 | @end smallexample | |
6141 | ||
6142 | the following insn will be never issued (because @samp{slot1} requires | |
6143 | @samp{slot0} which is absent in the source state). | |
6144 | ||
6145 | @smallexample | |
6146 | (define_reservation "insn_and_nop" "slot0 + slot1") | |
6147 | @end smallexample | |
6148 | ||
6149 | but it can be issued if we use analogous @samp{final_presence_set}. | |
6150 | ||
6151 | The forth construction (@samp{absence_set}) means that each functional | |
6152 | unit in the first string can be reserved only if each pattern of units | |
6153 | whose names are in the second string is not reserved. This is an | |
6154 | asymmetric relation (actually @samp{exclusion_set} is analogous to | |
6155 | this one but it is symmetric). For example, it is useful for | |
6156 | description that @acronym{VLIW} @samp{slot0} can not be reserved after | |
6157 | @samp{slot1} or @samp{slot2} reservation. We could describe it by the | |
6158 | following construction | |
6159 | ||
6160 | @smallexample | |
6161 | (absence_set "slot2" "slot0, slot1") | |
6162 | @end smallexample | |
6163 | ||
6164 | Or @samp{slot2} can not be reserved if @samp{slot0} and unit @samp{b0} | |
6165 | are reserved or @samp{slot1} and unit @samp{b1} are reserved. In | |
6166 | this case we could write | |
6167 | ||
6168 | @smallexample | |
6169 | (absence_set "slot2" "slot0 b0, slot1 b1") | |
6170 | @end smallexample | |

6174 | ||
30028c85 VM |
6175 | The last construction (@samp{final_absence_set}) is analogous to |
6176 | @samp{absence_set} but checking is done on the result (state) | |
6177 | reservation. See comments for @samp{final_presence_set}. | |

6212 | @item | |
6213 | @dfn{ndfa} makes nondeterministic finite state automata. This affects | |
6214 | the treatment of operator @samp{|} in the regular expressions. The | |
6215 | usual treatment of the operator is to try the first alternative and, | |
6216 | if the reservation is not possible, the second alternative. The | |
6217 | nondeterministic treatment means trying all alternatives, some of them | |
6218 | may be rejected by reservations in the subsequent insns. You can not | |
6219 | query functional unit reservations in nondeterministic automaton | |

6225 | during debugging a @acronym{DFA} description. If you see too many | |
6226 | generated states, you could interrupt the generator of the pipeline | |
6227 | hazard recognizer and try to figure out a reason for generation of the | |
6228 | huge automaton. | |

6231 | As an example, consider a superscalar @acronym{RISC} machine which can | |
6232 | issue three insns (two integer insns and one floating point insn) on | |
6233 | the cycle but can finish only two insns. To describe this, we define | |
6234 | the following functional units. | |
6235 | ||
6236 | @smallexample | |
6237 | (define_cpu_unit "i0_pipeline, i1_pipeline, f_pipeline") | |

6241 | All simple integer insns can be executed in any integer pipeline and | |
6242 | their result is ready in two cycles. The simple integer insns are | |
6243 | issued into the first pipeline unless it is reserved, otherwise they | |
6244 | are issued into the second pipeline. Integer division and | |
6245 | multiplication insns can be executed only in the second integer | |
6246 | pipeline and their results are ready correspondingly in 8 and 4 | |
6247 | cycles. The integer division is not pipelined, i.e. the subsequent | |
6248 | integer division insn can not be issued until the current division | |
6249 | insn finished. Floating point insns are fully pipelined and their | |
ef261fee R |
6250 | results are ready in 3 cycles. Where the result of a floating point |
6251 | insn is used by an integer insn, an additional delay of one cycle is | |
6252 | incurred. To describe all of this we could specify | |
fae15c93 VM |

6255 | (define_cpu_unit "div") | |

6293 | ||
6294 | A number of architectures provide for some form of conditional | |
6295 | execution, or predication. The hallmark of this feature is the | |
6296 | ability to nullify most of the instructions in the instruction set. | |
6297 | When the instruction set is large and not entirely symmetric, it | |
6298 | can be quite tedious to describe these forms directly in the | |
6299 | @file{.md} file. An alternative is the @code{define_cond_exec} template. | |

6308 | ||
6309 | @var{predicate-pattern} is the condition that must be true for the | |
6310 | insn to be executed at runtime and should match a relational operator. | |
6311 | One can use @code{match_operator} to match several relational operators | |
6312 | at once. Any @code{match_operand} operands must have no more than one | |
6313 | alternative. | |
6314 | ||
6315 | @var{condition} is a C expression that must be true for the generated | |
6316 | pattern to match. | |

6318 | @findex current_insn_predicate | |

3262c1f5 RH |
6320 | output template (@pxref{Output Template}), except that the @samp{*} |
6321 | and @samp{@@} special cases do not apply. This is only useful if the | |
6322 | assembly text for the predicate is a simple prefix to the main insn. | |
6323 | In order to handle the general case, there is a global variable | |
6324 | @code{current_insn_predicate} that will contain the entire predicate | |
6325 | if the current insn is predicated, and will otherwise be @code{NULL}. | |
6326 | ||

6327 | When @code{define_cond_exec} is used, an implicit reference to |
6328 | the @code{predicable} instruction attribute is made. | |
e979f9e8 | 6329 | @xref{Insn Attributes}. This attribute must be boolean (i.e.@: have |
3262c1f5 RH |
6330 | exactly two elements in its @var{list-of-values}). Further, it must |
6331 | not be used with complex expressions. That is, the default and all | |
ebb48a4d | 6332 | uses in the insns must be a simple constant, not dependent on the |
3262c1f5 RH |
6333 | alternative or anything else. |

ebb48a4d | 6335 | For each @code{define_insn} for which the @code{predicable} |
