cmd/compile: don't use nilcheck information until the next block

2017-01-20T20:21:55+00:00

When nilcheck runs, the values in a block are not in any particular
order.  So any facts derived from examining the blocks shouldn't be
used until we reach the next block.

This is suboptimal as it won't eliminate nil checks within a block.
But it's probably a better fix for now as it is a much smaller change
than other strategies for fixing this bug.

nilptr3.go changes are mostly because for this pattern:
  _ = *p
  _ = *p
either nil check is fine to keep, and this CL changes which one
the compiler tends to keep.
There are a few regressions from code like this:
  _ = *p
  f()
  _ = *p
For this pattern, after this CL we issue 2 nil checks instead of one.
(For the curious, this happens because intra-block nil check
 elimination now falls to CSE, not nilcheck proper.  The former
 pattern has two nil checks with the same store argument.  The latter
 pattern has two nil checks with different store arguments.)

Fixes #18725

cmd/compile: remove duplicate nilchecks

2016-09-27T23:54:01+00:00

Mark nil check operations as faulting if their arg is zero.
This lets the late nilcheck pass remove duplicates.

[dev.ssa] cmd/compile, etc.: more ARM64 optimizations, and enable SSA by default

2016-08-15T03:37:34+00:00

Add more ARM64 optimizations:
- use hardware zero register when it is possible.
- use shifted ops.
  The assembler supports shifted ops but not documented, nor knows
  how to print it. This CL adds them.
- enable fast division.
  This was disabled because it makes the old backend generate slower
  code. But with SSA it generates faster code.

Turn on SSA by default, also adjust tests.

[dev.ssa] cmd/compile: implement GO386=387

2016-08-10T17:41:01+00:00

Last part of the 386 SSA port.

Modify the x86 backend to simulate SSE registers and
instructions with 387 registers and instructions.
The simulation isn't terribly performant, but it works,
and the old implementation wasn't very performant either.
Leaving to people who care about 387 to optimize if they want.

Turn on SSA backend for 386 by default.

[dev.ssa] cmd/compile: support NaCl in SSA for ARM

2016-07-16T03:13:45+00:00

NaCl code runs in sandbox and there are restrictions for its
instruction uses
(https://developer.chrome.com/native-client/reference/sandbox_internals/arm-32-bit-sandbox).

Like the legacy backend, on NaCl,
- don't use R9, which is used as NaCl's "thread pointer".
- don't use Duff's device.
- don't use indexed load/stores.
- the assembler rewrites DIV/MOD to runtime calls, which on NaCl
  clobbers R12, so R12 is marked as clobbered for DIV/MOD.
- other restrictions are satisfied by the assembler.

Enable SSA specific tests on nacl/arm, and disable non-SSA ones.

Updates #15365.
