[PATCH] RISC-V: Handle no_insn in TARGET_SCHED_VARIABLE_ISSUE.

[PATCH] RISC-V: Handle no_insn in TARGET_SCHED_VARIABLE_ISSUE.

[Jin Ma]

Reference: https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/commit/d0bc0cb66bcb0e6a5a5a31a9e900e8ccc98e34e5

RISC-V should also be implemented to handle no_insn patterns for pipelining.

gcc/ChangeLog:

	* config/riscv/riscv.cc (riscv_sched_variable_issue): New function.
	(TARGET_SCHED_VARIABLE_ISSUE): New macro.

The problem is that INSN is *much* more likely to be a real instruction 
that takes real resources, even if it is TYPE_UNKNOWN.
TYPE_UNKNOWN here is actually an indicator of what I would consider a 
bug in the backend, specifically that we have INSNs that do not provide 
a mapping for the schedulers to suitable types.

With that in mind I'd much rather get to the point where we can do 
something like this for TYPE_UNKNOWN:

type = get_attr_type (insn);
gcc_assert (type != TYPE_UNKNOWN);

That way if we ever encounter a TYPE_UNKNOWN during development, we can 
fix it in the md files in a sensible manner.  I don't know if we are 
close to being able to do that.  We fixed a ton of stuff in bitmanip.md, 
but I don't think there's been a thorough review of the port to find 
other instances of TYPE_UNKNOWN INSNs.


The other thing if this code probably wants to handle GHOST type 
instructions.  While GHOST is used for instructions which generate no 
code, it might seem they should return "more" as those INSNs take no 
resources.  But GHOST is actually used for things like the blockage insn 
which should end a cycle from an issue standpoint.  So the right 
handling of a GHOST is something like this:

if (type == TYPE_GHOST)
   return 0;

So there wasn't ever any follow-up.  Given this was something Ventana 
was also carrying locally (with very minor differences) I went ahead and 
merged up the implementations and pushed the final result to the trunk.


Attached is the patch that was actually committed.

Sorry for being lost here, but I'm not sure where TYPE_UNKNOWN comes 
from.  There's not a whole lot of instances in the code, and they all 
seem to be doing something very special.  Is it just something we didn't 
do a '(set_attr "type" ...)' on?

In that case it seems reasonable to have a dev-mode early failure: we've 
got some odd types now (like just the broad "bitmanip" one), but those 
can be split later.  At least having some classification seems like the 
way to go, it's just an internal interface so we can make it better 
later.

That said, it also smells like this is something that should be more 
generic than backend code?

Lost again, here, there's almost no references to TYPE_GHOST (aside from 
a MIPS-ism that looks to have ended up in Loongarch).

Yup.  TYPE_UNKNOWN means we don't have a type associated with the insn. 
As I've mentioned before this isn't a major problem if there's one or 
two here and there.  But if most are TYPE_UNKNOWN, the the scheduler is 
going to do highly unnatural things.

No, it's really a target issue.  And what I was suggesting is that we 
get to the point where we can enable the currently #if 0'd assert so 
that if we introduce insns without an associated type, we get a nice 
early warning.  I wasn't up for tackling that this week ;-)

OK, that seems like the way to go.  I still think it's likely we'll need 
to split up these types more, but that's something we can only deal with 
when there's HW that behaves oddly.

I was thinking of some sort of "TARGET_ALLOWS_UNKNOWN_INSNS" hook, but 
poking around the uses that might not be meaningfully simpler than just 
rejecting these in the backend -- certainly simpler if we're just 
worried about RISC-V ;)

This seems pretty mechinacial: just scrub through our MDs to check for 
any un-typed insns, then add the assert and fix the failures.  You're 
more than welcome to have at it, but LMK if you want me to try and find 
some time for someone to do it -- certainly seems like a good way for 
someone new to dig in a bit.

Yea, but I think we can fault this in as problematic hardware arrives.

Not all ports have types at all.  Some use types for things other than 
scheduling.  It'd be a huge can of worms.

Yes, definitely mechanical.  And yes, it's a good way for someone to 
start to get familiar with these bits -- I used the lack of types on 
some of the bitmanip insns to help ramp up Raphael and one of the RAU 
guys in this space.

Hi, Palmer sent me this thread to take a look at. I can start working on 
this.

Sounds good.  The goal is to make sure that every insn has a type and 
once we hit that milestone we can enable the currently #if 0'd assert in 
riscv_sched_variable_issue to help ensure we don't introduce any new 
insns without types in the future.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out.

No worries.  We're tracking it in patchwork and it also overlaps with 
some work we had internally at Ventana.  So it was trivial to pick it up 
once it was clear it'd fallen through the cracks.
