Subject: How to write shift and add pattern?
Date: Fri, 28 Aug 2009 19:56:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ba0bd44d0908280651r676484a5r6b776a2f6d1f12b7@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello all,

I am trying to port a 32bit arch in GCC 4.4.0. My target has support
for 1bit, 2bit shift and add operations. I tried to write patterns for
this , but gcc is not generating those. The following are the patterns
that i have written in md file:

(define_insn "shift_add_<mode>"
 [(set (match_operand:SI 0 "register_operand" "")
       (plus:SI (match_operand:SI 3 "register_operand" "")
                 (ashift:SI (match_operand:SI 1 "register_operand" "")
                             (match_operand:SI 2 "immediate_operand" ""))))]
 ""
 "shadd1\\t%1, %0"
)

(define_insn "shift_add1_<mode>"
 [(set (match_operand:SI 0 "register_operand" "")
       (plus:SI (ashift:SI (match_operand:SI 1 "register_operand" "")
                             (match_operand:SI 2 "immediate_operand" ""))
                 (match_operand:SI 3 "register_operand" "")))]
 ""
 "shadd1\\t%1, %0"
)

(define_insn "shift_n_add_<mode>"
 [(set (match_operand:SI 1 "register_operand" "")
       (ashift:SI (match_dup 1)
                   (match_operand:SI 2 "immediate_operand" "")))
  (set (match_operand:SI 0 "register_operand" "")
       (plus:SI (match_dup 0)
                 (match_dup 1)))]
 ""
 "shadd2\\t%1, %0"
)


As you can see i have tried combinations. Since i was looking for
pattern matching i didnt bother to write according to the target.
Thought i will do that after i get a matching pattern. When i debugged
GCC was generating patterns with multiply. But that gets discarded
since md file doesnt have those patterns. How can i make GCC generate
shift and add pattern? Is GCC generating patterns with multiply due to
cost issues? I havent mentioned any cost details.

Regards,
Shafi
