Micro-architecture unconditionally treats a "jr $ra" as "return from subroutine",
hence doing "jr $ra" would interfere with both subroutine return prediction and
the more general indirect branch prediction.
Therefore, a problem like PR110136 can cause a significant increase in branch error
prediction rate and affect performance. The same problem exists with "indirect_jump".
gcc/ChangeLog:
* config/loongarch/loongarch.md: Modify the register constraints for template
"jumptable" and "indirect_jump" from "r" to "e".
Co-authored-by: Andrew Pinski <apinski@marvell.com>
---
v1 -> v2:
1. Modify the description.
2. Modify the register constraints of the template "indirect_jump".
v2 -> v3:
1. Modify the description.

Xuerui: I guess this makes it sensible to show "ret" instead of "jirl
$zero, $ra, 0" in objdump -d output, but I don't know how to implement
it. Do you have some idea?

Thanks for the suggestion! Actually I have previously made this patch
series [1] which included just that. But the Loongson maintainers said
they're working on linker relaxation at that time so they would have to
postpone processing it, and I've never had a review since then; it's
expected to conflict with the relaxation patches so some rebasing would
be needed, but IIRC all review comments should be addressed. You can
take the series if you'd like to ;-)
