RFR : PPC64 : Need support for VSR spills in ppc.ad

Hi Michihiro,

thanks for the new webrev. Looks good. We will test it.
Please add the bug id to the subject of RFRs. This one is 8194861.

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8194861

The bug could be treated as P3 bug because SuperwordUseVSX is currently broken and leads to crashes.
But I'm ok with leaving it switched off for jdk10 and keeping the bug targeted to jdk11.

Best regards,
Martin

Hi Martin,

>Not to be used by MachConstantBaseNode.
Thank you for the confirmation.

>I still suggest to add "iRegLdst tmp" with "effect(TEMP tmp)" to repl4F_immF_Ex.
Sure, I updated code with a tmp register instead of R19:

Not to be used by MachConstantBaseNode. I don't see how this should help.

I still suggest to add "iRegLdst tmp" with "effect(TEMP tmp)" to repl4F_immF_Ex.

Best regards,

Hi Martin,

Thanks a lot for your review.

>I wonder how the content of R19 should get preserved.
R19 is commented out in bits64_constant_table_base so as not to be used:
reg_class bits64_constant_table_base(
:
R18_H, R18,
/*R19_H, R19*/
R20_H, R20,
:
);

Although bits64_constant_table_base is not directly referred from anywhere, it seems to be used at the following line in ppc.ad:
const RegMask& MachConstantBaseNode::_out_RegMask = BITS64_CONSTANT_TABLE_BASE_mask();
(When I remove the declaration of bits64_constant_table_base, a build error arises at this line telling the lack of the declaration.)

>Shouldn't repl4F_immF_Ex use a temp register instead of R19?
Thank you for the suggestion, which makes sense very much. I think I can declare temp registers in repl4F_immF_Ex.
I will try this approach if using R19 does not make sense.

I changed vm_version_ppc.cpp:

Hi Michihiro,

thanks for implementing it.

I wonder how the content of R19 should get preserved.

Shouldn't repl4F_immF_Ex use a temp register instead of R19?

SuperwordUseVSX is still not activated in vm_version_ppc.cpp. I think we should turn it on with this change (see the TODO).

We will run tests when the R19 question is clarified.

Best regards,

Martin

Hi Martin,

Would you review the following change that fixes the SLP for PPC?

In this change, I added support for VSR spills. Also, I fixed how to specify registers in postalloc_expand for the float constant replication. I confirmed this change works with JTREG.

Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8194861<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__bugs.openjdk.java.net_browse_JDK-2D8194861&d=DwMFAg&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=oecsIpYF-cifqq2i1JEH0Q&m=6pCaUQ4ll6S-hRCrDXsSKjl9NrczviVl3vOv0-KnizA&s=HtvmfHT8WviFbLWwFAnJ1KOrzvPiwqleI_inLbbJqTE&e=>
