Hello All:

This is patch-3 to improve ree pass for rs6000 target.
Main functionality routines to imprve ree pass.

Bootstrapped and regtested on powerpc64-gnu-linux.

Thanks & Regards

        ree: Improve ree pass for rs6000 target.

        For rs6000 target we see redundant zero and sign
        extension and done to improve ree pass to eliminate
        such redundant zero and sign extension. Support of
        zero_extend/sign_extend/AND.

gcc/ChangeLog:

        * ree.cc (eliminate_across_bbs_p): Add checks to enable extension
        elimination across and within basic blocks.
        (def_arith_p): New function to check definition has arithmetic
        operation.
        (combine_set_extension): Modification to incorporate AND
        and current zero_extend and sign_extend instruction.
        (merge_def_and_ext): Add calls to eliminate_across_bbs_p and
        zero_extend sign_extend and AND instruction.
        (rtx_is_zext_p): New function.
        (reg_used_set_between_p): New function.

This seems general enough that it should go into the same file as reg_used_between_p and reg_set_between_p. It needs a function comment as well.

So my comment from the prior version stands. Testing for const1_rtx is just wrong. The optimization you're trying to perform (If I understand it correctly) works for many other constants and the set of constants supported will vary based on the input and output modes.

Similarly in rtx_is_zext_p.

You still have numerous formatting issues which makes reading the patch more difficult than it should be. Please review the formatting guidelines and follow them. In particular please review how to indent multi-line conditionals.

This still needs work. Between the comments and code, I still don't know what you're really trying to do here. I can make some guesses, but it's really your job to write clear comments about what you're doing so that a review or someone looking at the code in the future don't have to guess.

It looks like you want to look at all the reaching definitions of INSN for ORIG_SRC and if they are ASHIFT/LSHIFTRT do... what?

Why are ASHIFT/LSHIFTRT interesting here?  Why are you looking for them?

Function comments should read like complete sentences. Arguments should be in all caps. There are numerous examples in ree.cc you can follow.

There's no comments in this code which describe the properties of the CFG/blocks you are looking for (domination, post-domination, whatever). It's jsut a series of tests with no clear explanation of what you're looking for or why any particular test exists.

As far as I can tell you're looking at the predecessors of cand->insn and make some decisions based on what you find. In some cases you return false in others you return true. But there's zero indication of why you do anything.

You're checking RTL in these cases, but I suspect you really want to be doing some kind of CFG property checks. But since you haven't described what you're looking for, I can't make suggestions for the right queries to make.

I stopped trying to review the function at this point. It needs major work. Let's start with the block/CFG properties you're looking for. We'll then have to go through each section of code and repeat the process.

In fact I might recommend pulling the code which is trying to determine CFG properties into its own function. Then try to come up with a good name for that function and a good function comment.

THe next chunk of code you start looking at the properties of the candidate insn. That seems like it ought to break out into its own function as well.

THe process of refactoring, choosing good names and function comments should make the overall intent of this code clearer.



After that's done we'll review that work and perhaps go further.
