[AMDGPU][GFX1250] Optimize s_wait_xcnt for back-to-back atomic RMWs (#177620) This patch optimizes the insertion of s_wait_xcnt instruction for sequences of atomic read-modify-write (RMW) operations in the SIInsertWaitcnts pass. The Memory Legalizer conservatively inserts a soft xcnt instruction before each atomic RMW operation as part of PR 168852, which is correct given the nature of atomic operations. However, for back-to-back atomic RMWs, only the first s_wait_xcnt is necessary for better runtime performance. This patch tracks atomic RMW blocks within each basic block and removes redundant soft xcnt instructions, keeping only the first wait in each sequence. An atomic RMW block continues through subsequent atomic RMWs and non-memory instructions (e.g., ALU operations) but is broken by CU-scoped memory operations, atomic stores, or basic block boundaries.
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
