[layout] Pack slot indexes before register allocation#62
Merged
Conversation
Applies: llvm#66334 llvm#67038 Packing the slot indexes before register allocation is useful for us because it evens the gaps between slots after all the optimization passes that happen before `greedy` and may have removed a different number of instructions between AArch64 and X86. This leads to different slot gaps and, hence, slightly different regalloc in some cases. We backport the above patches for our LLVM, with the main difference being the absence of some convenient data structure iterators, which we had to convert to be compatible with our ADT infrastructure. We add the `-pack-indexes` flag to activate this. Addressses: systems-nuts/unifico#291

Would you care to comment on the upstream PR? Not too many people have taken an interest in it. Thanks. |
