1 To-do

4 * Keep the address of the constant pool in a register instead of forming its
5 address all of the time.
6 * We can fold small constant offsets into the %hi/%lo references to constant
7 pool addresses as well.
8 * When in V9 mode, register allocate %icc[0-3].
9 * Add support for isel'ing UMUL_LOHI instead of marking it as Expand.
10 * Emit the 'Branch on Integer Register with Prediction' instructions. It's
11 not clear how to write a pattern for this though:
12
13 float %t1(int %a, int* %p) {
14 %C = seteq int %a, 0
15 br bool %C, label %T, label %F
16 T:
17 store int 123, int* %p
18 br label %F
19 F:
20 ret float undef
21 }
22
23 codegens to this:
24
25 t1:
26 save -96, %o6, %o6
27 1) subcc %i0, 0, %l0
28 1) bne .LBBt1_2 ! F
29 nop
30 .LBBt1_1: ! T
31 or %g0, 123, %l0
32 st %l0, [%i1]
33 .LBBt1_2: ! F
34 restore %g0, %g0, %g0
35 retl
36 nop
37
38 1) should be replaced with a brz in V9 mode.
39
40 * Same as above, but emit conditional move on register zero (p192) in V9
41 mode. Testcase:
42
43 int %t1(int %a, int %b) {
44 %C = seteq int %a, 0
45 %D = select bool %C, int %a, int %b
46 ret int %D
47 }
48
49 * Emit MULX/[SU]DIVX instructions in V9 mode instead of fiddling
50 with the Y register, if they are faster.
51
52 * Codegen bswap(load)/store(bswap) -> load/store ASI
53
54 * Implement frame pointer elimination, e.g. eliminate save/restore for
55 leaf fns.
56 * Fill delay slots
57
58 * Use %g0 directly to materialize 0. No instruction is required.
