Topic: wasmtime / PR #2051 Aarch64 codegen quality: handle add-n...

Wasmtime GitHub notifications bot (Jul 20 2020 at 20:40):

cfallin opened PR #2051 from aarch64-add-negative-imm to main:

We often see patterns like:

    mov w2, #0xffff_ffff   // uses ORR with logical immediate form
    add w0, w1, w2
```

which is just `w0 := w1 - 1`. It would be much better to recognize when
the inverse of an immediate will fit in a 12-bit immediate field if the
immediate itself does not, and flip add to subtract (and vice versa), so
we can instead generate:

```
    sub w0, w1, #-1
```

We see this pattern in e.g. `bz2`, where this commit makes the following
difference (counting instructions with `perf stat`, filling in the
wasmtime cache first then running again to get just runtime):

pre:

```

In other words, a 2.1% redunction in instruction count on `bz2`.

cfallin updated PR #2051 from aarch64-add-negative-imm to main:

We often see patterns like:

    mov w2, #0xffff_ffff   // uses ORR with logical immediate form
    add w0, w1, w2

which is just w0 := w1 - 1. It would be much better to recognize when
the inverse of an immediate will fit in a 12-bit immediate field if the
immediate itself does not, and flip add to subtract (and vice versa), so
we can instead generate:

    sub w0, w1, #1

We see this pattern in e.g. bz2, where this commit makes the following
difference (counting instructions with perf stat, filling in the
wasmtime cache first then running again to get just runtime):
