i386: Implement doubleword right shifts by 1 bit using s[ha]r+rcr.
This patch tweaks the i386 back-end's ix86_split_ashr and ix86_split_lshr
functions to implement doubleword right shifts by 1 bit, using a shift
of the highpart that sets the carry flag followed by a rotate-carry-right
(RCR) instruction on the lowpart.
Conceptually this is similar to the recent left shift patch, but with two
complicating factors. The first is that although the RCR sequence is
shorter, and is a ~3x performance improvement on AMD, my microbenchmarking
shows it ~10% slower on Intel. Hence this patch also introduces a new
X86_TUNE_USE_RCR tuning parameter. The second is that I believe this is
the first time a "rotate-right-through-carry" and a right shift that sets
the carry flag from the least significant bit has been modelled in GCC RTL
(on a MODE_CC target). For this I've used the i386 back-end's UNSPEC_CC_NE
which seems appropriate. Finally rcrsi2 and rcrdi2 are separate
define_insns so that we can use their generator functions.
For the pair of functions:
unsigned __int128 foo(unsigned __int128 x) { return x >> 1; }
__int128 bar(__int128 x) { return x >> 1; }
with -O2 -march=znver4 we previously generated:
foo: movq %rdi, %rax
movq %rsi, %rdx
shrdq $1, %rsi, %rax
shrq %rdx
ret
bar: movq %rdi, %rax
movq %rsi, %rdx
shrdq $1, %rsi, %rax
sarq %rdx
ret
with this patch we now generate:
foo: movq %rsi, %rdx
movq %rdi, %rax
shrq %rdx
rcrq %rax
ret
bar: movq %rsi, %rdx
movq %rdi, %rax
sarq %rdx
rcrq %rax
ret

gcc/ChangeLog
* config/i386/i386-expand.cc (ix86_split_ashr): Split shifts by
one into ashr[sd]i3_carry followed by rcr[sd]i2, if TARGET_USE_RCR
or -Oz.
(ix86_split_lshr): Likewise, split shifts by one bit into
lshr[sd]i3_carry followed by rcr[sd]i2, if TARGET_USE_RCR or -Oz.
* config/i386/i386.h (TARGET_USE_RCR): New backend macro.
* config/i386/i386.md (rcrsi2): New define_insn for rcrl.
(rcrdi2): New define_insn for rcrq.
(<anyshiftrt><mode>3_carry): New define_insn for right shifts that
set the carry flag from the least significant bit, modelled using
UNSPEC_CC_NE.
* config/i386/x86-tune.def (X86_TUNE_USE_RCR): New tuning parameter
controlling use of rcr 1 vs. shrd, which is significantly faster on
AMD processors.
gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog
* gcc.target/i386/rcr-1.c: New 64-bit test case.
* gcc.target/i386/rcr-2.c: New 32-bit test case.
