* Remove OldCmm, convert backends to consume new CmmSimon Marlow2012-11-121-279/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This removes the OldCmm data type and the CmmCvt pass that converts new Cmm to OldCmm. The backends (NCGs, LLVM and C) have all been converted to consume new Cmm. The main difference between the two data types is that conditional branches in new Cmm have both true/false successors, whereas in OldCmm the false case was a fallthrough. To generate slightly better code we occasionally need to invert a conditional to ensure that the branch-not-taken becomes a fallthrough; this was previously done in CmmCvt, and it is now done in CmmContFlowOpt. We could go further and use the Hoopl Block representation for native code, which would mean that we could use Hoopl's postorderDfs and analyses for native code, but for now I've left it as is, using the old ListGraph representation for native code.
* Attach global register liveness info to Cmm procedures.Geoffrey Mainland2012-10-301-3/+3
| | | | | | | All Cmm procedures now include the set of global registers that are live on procedure entry, i.e., the global registers used to pass arguments to the procedure. Only global registers that are use to pass arguments are included in this list.
* Generalize register sets and liveness calculations.Geoffrey Mainland2012-10-301-13/+15
| | | | | | We would like to calculate register liveness for global registers as well as local registers, so this patch generalizes the existing infrastructure to set the stage.
* Cmm jumps always have live register information.Geoffrey Mainland2012-10-301-1/+1
| | | | Jumps now always have live register information attached, so drop Maybes.
* Remove the old codegenSimon Marlow2012-10-191-3/+2
| | | | | Except for CgUtils.fixStgRegisters that is used in the NCG and LLVM backends, and should probably be moved somewhere else.
* Produce new-style Cmm from the Cmm parserSimon Marlow2012-10-081-7/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The main change here is that the Cmm parser now allows high-level cmm code with argument-passing and function calls. For example: foo ( gcptr a, bits32 b ) { if (b > 0) { // we can make tail calls passing arguments: jump stg_ap_0_fast(a); } return (x,y); } More details on the new cmm syntax are in Note [Syntax of .cmm files] in CmmParse.y. The old syntax is still more-or-less supported for those occasional code fragments that really need to explicitly manipulate the stack. However there are a couple of differences: it is now obligatory to give a list of live GlobalRegs on every jump, e.g. jump %ENTRY_CODE(Sp(0)) [R1]; Again, more details in Note [Syntax of .cmm files]. I have rewritten most of the .cmm files in the RTS into the new syntax, except for AutoApply.cmm which is generated by the genapply program: this file could be generated in the new syntax instead and would probably be better off for it, but I ran out of enthusiasm. Some other changes in this batch: - The PrimOp calling convention is gone, primops now use the ordinary NativeNodeCall convention. This means that primops and "foreign import prim" code must be written in high-level cmm, but they can now take more than 10 arguments. - CmmSink now does constant-folding (should fix #7219) - .cmm files now go through the cmmPipeline, and as a result we generate better code in many cases. All the object files generated for the RTS .cmm files are now smaller. Performance should be better too, but I haven't measured it yet. - RET_DYN frames are removed from the RTS, lots of code goes away - we now have some more canned GC points to cover unboxed-tuples with 2-4 pointers, which will reduce code size a little.
* New codegen: do not split proc-points when using the NCGSimon Marlow2012-07-301-5/+15
| | | | | | | | | Proc-point splitting is only required by backends that do not support having proc-points within a code block (that is, everything except the native backend, i.e. LLVM and C). Not doing proc-point splitting saves some compilation time, and might produce slightly better code in some cases.

| * Track STG live register information for use in LLVMDavid Terei2012-01-091-20/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We now carry around with CmmJump statements a list of the STG registers that are live at that jump site. This is used by the LLVM backend so it can avoid unnesecarily passing around dead registers, improving perfromance. This gives us the framework to finally fix trac #4308.

* Get rid of the "safety" field of CmmCall (OldCmm)Simon Marlow2011-11-291-2/+1

| | | | | We only use it for "compiler" sources, i.e. not for libraries. Many modules have a -fno-warn-tabs kludge for now.

* Refactoring: explicitly mark whether we have an info table in RawCmmMax Bolingbroke2011-07-061-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | I introduced this to support explicitly recording the info table label in RawCmm for another patch I am working on, but it turned out to lead to significant simplification in those parts of the compiler that consume RawCmm. Now, instead of lots of tests for null [CmmStatic] we have a simple test of a Maybe, and have reduced the number of guys that need to know how to convert entry->info labels by a TON. There are only 3 callers of that function now!
* Refactoring: use a structured CmmStatics type rather than [CmmStatic]Max Bolingbroke2011-07-051-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I observed that the [CmmStatics] within CmmData uses the list in a very stylised way. The first item in the list is almost invariably a CmmDataLabel. Many parts of the compiler pattern match on this list and fail if this is not true. This patch makes the invariant explicit by introducing a structured type CmmStatics that holds the label and the list of remaining [CmmStatic]. There is one wrinkle: the x86 backend sometimes wants to output an alignment directive just before the label. However, this can be easily fixed up by parameterising the native codegen over the type of CmmStatics (though the GenCmmTop parameterisation) and using a pair (Alignment, CmmStatics) there instead. As a result, I think we will be able to remove CmmAlign and CmmDataLabel from the CmmStatic data type, thus nuking a lot of code and failing pattern matches. This change will come as part of my next patch.

* Merge in new code generator branch.Simon Marlow2011-01-241-0/+271
This changes the new code generator to make use of the Hoopl package for dataflow analysis. Hoopl is a new boot package, and is maintained in a separate upstream git repository (as usual, GHC has its own lagging darcs mirror in http://darcs.haskell.org/packages/hoopl). During this merge I squashed recent history into one patch. I tried to rebase, but the history had some internal conflicts of its own which made rebase extremely confusing, so I gave up. The history I squashed was: - Update new codegen to work with latest Hoopl - Add some notes on new code gen to cmm-notes - Enable Hoopl lag package. - Add SPJ note to cmm-notes - Improve GC calls on new code generator. Work in this branch was done by: - Milan Straka <fox@ucw.cz> - John Dias <dias@cs.tufts.edu> - David Terei <davidterei@gmail.com> Edward Z. Yang <ezyang@mit.edu> merged in further changes from GHC HEAD and fixed a few bugs.
