- cover more cases that have no side effects
- ensure function has complex FNX
- pull operators out of OFUNC level
- rewrite OSTRUCT lhs to avoid all side-effects, use regalloc() instead of regret()
convert:
x = B || W
MOVxLZX a, r; MOVxQZX r, b -> MOVxQZX a, r; MOVQ r, b
MOVxLSX a, r; MOVxQSX r, r -> MOVxQSX a, r; MOVQ r, r
the MOVQ can then be eleminated by copy propagation.
improve subprop() by accepting other mov and lea
instructions as the source op.
Without an explicit signal for a truncation, copy propagation will
sometimes propagate a 32-bit truncation and end up overwriting uses of
the original 64-bit value.
This was independently discovered and fixed in Go. See:
http://golang.org/issue/1315https://codereview.appspot.com/6002043/
Thanks Charles Forsyth for tips and advice.
the shift instructions does not change the zero flag
when the shift count is 0, so we cannot remove the
compare instruction in this case.
this fixes oggdec under 386.
when the previous instruction sets the zero flag,
we can remove the CMPL/CMPQ instruction.
this removes compares for zero/non zero tests only.
it only looks at the previous non-nop instruction
to see if it sets our compare value register.
1. Go group spotted that a slightly-obscured pointer move was done by AMOVL not AMOVQ.
2. Inspecting the code further, I noticed that other pointer types were set to TLONG not TIND,
causing similar truncation of pointers to 32 bits.
to make it easy to use normal libraries (such as libdraw, libsec, and libmp)
with the kernel, which uses extern register, don't stray into the external
register set when allocating values to registers.
