* NCG: New code layout algorithm.Andreas Klebinger2018-11-173-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: This patch implements a new code layout algorithm. It has been tested for x86 and is disabled on other platforms. Performance varies slightly be CPU/Machine but in general seems to be better by around 2%. Nofib shows only small differences of about +/- ~0.5% overall depending on flags/machine performance in other benchmarks improved significantly. Other benchmarks includes at least the benchmarks of: aeson, vector, megaparsec, attoparsec, containers, text and xeno. While the magnitude of gains differed three different CPUs where tested with all getting faster although to differing degrees. I tested: Sandy Bridge(Xeon), Haswell, Skylake * Library benchmark results summarized: * containers: ~1.5% faster * aeson: ~2% faster * megaparsec: ~2-5% faster * xml library benchmarks: 0.2%-1.1% faster * vector-benchmarks: 1-4% faster * text: 5.5% faster On average GHC compile times go down, as GHC compiled with the new layout is faster than the overhead introduced by using the new layout algorithm, Things this patch does: * Move code responsilbe for block layout in it's own module. * Move the NcgImpl Class into the NCGMonad module. * Extract a control flow graph from the input cmm. * Update this cfg to keep it in sync with changes during asm codegen. This has been tested on x64 but should work on x86. Other platforms still use the old codelayout. * Assign weights to the edges in the CFG based on type and limited static analysis which are then used for block layout. * Once we have the final code layout eliminate some redundant jumps. In particular turn a sequences of: jne .foo jmp .bar foo: into je bar foo: ..

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This for some reason or the other and makes it into the final binary. I've added the check to ContFlowOpt as that seems like a logical place for this. In a regular nofib run there were 30 occurences of this pattern.

* Hoopl: improve postorder calculationMichal Terepeta2018-03-195-0/+83
- Fix the naming and comments to indicate that we are calculating *reverse* postorder (and not the standard postorder). - Rewrite the calculation to avoid CPS code. I found it fairly difficult to understand and the new one seems faster (according to nofib, decreases compiler allocations by 0.2%) - Remove `LabelsPtr`, which seems unnecessary and could be *really* confusing. For instance, previously: `postorder_dfs_from <block with label X>` and `postorder_dfs_from <label X>` would actually mean quite different things (and give different results). - Change the `Dataflow` module to always use entry of the graph for reverse postorder calculation. This should be the only change in behavior of this commit. Previously, if the caller provided initial facts for some of the labels, we would use those labels for our postorder calculation. However, I don't think that's correct in general - if the initial facts did not contain the entry of the graph, we would never analyze the blocks reachable from the entry but unreachable from the labels provided with the initial facts. It seems that the only analysis that used this was proc-point analysis, which I think would always include the entry block (so I don't think there's any bug due to this).
