Hello Vladimir:
We have made the changes in the ira-color.c in ira_loop_edge_freq and
move_spill_restore. The main motivation
behind the change is to reduce the memory instruction with respect to the
Loops. The changes are done to not to
consider the back edge frequency if there are no references of the allocno
inside the loop even though the allocno
are live out at the exit of the Loop and Live In at the entry of the Loop.
This will reduce the calculation of the cost of
putting allocno into memory. If we reduce the cost of putting allocno into
memory, then there are chances of getting
color in the simplification phase of the gcc IRA register allocator. Enabling
this, there are chances of putting the allocno
in the register and the splitting phase will split the live range across the
Loop boundary. This will beneficial with respect
to reducing memory instruction inside the Loop. Other changes is done to enable
some of the allocno to allocate in
memory if the cost is less than equal to zero.
This is the first phase of the change in the IRA core register module, I would
like to get your feedbacks on this change
based on this the actual patch is sent. The changes are accompanied with the
patch created for the change which will
be easier for you to review the change.
We have tested the changes for Microblaze target for MIBENCH and EEMBC
benchmarks and there are no degradation
in the Geomean and some of the Mibench and EEMBC benchmarks is benefitted with
this change.
Please review the changes and let me know your feedbacks and other steps needs
to be done to incorporate the
changes in the Upstream". We would like to get this change for Microblaze,
Please also let us know if the changes are
required to be enabled with any switch flag.
Changes are given below.

Subject: [PATCH] IRA : Changes in the cost of putting allocno into memory.
Changes are made to not consider the back edge frequency for cost calculation
if the allocno is live out at the exit of the Loop and Live in at the entry of
the
Loop and there are no references inside the Loop. Further changes are made to
enable
some of the allocnos into memory if the costs is less than equal to 0.
ChangeLog:
2015-01-06 Ajit Agarwal <ajit...@xilinx.com>
* ira-color.c (move_spill_restore): Add the check cost less than
equal to 0.
(ira_loop_edge_freq): Add to ignore the loop edge frequence if
there are no reference of allocno inside the loop.
