9 // This pass tries to make consecutive compares of values use same operands to
10 // allow CSE pass to remove duplicated instructions.  For this it analyzes
11 // branches and adjusts comparisons with immediate values by converting:
12 //  * GE -> GT
13 //  * GT -> GE
14 //  * LT -> LE
15 //  * LE -> LT
16 // and adjusting immediate values appropriately.  It basically corrects two
17 // immediate values towards each other to make them equal.
18 //
19 // Consider the following example in C:
20 //
21 //   if ((a < 5 && ...) || (a > 5 && ...)) {
22 //        ~~~~~             ~~~~~
23 //          ^                 ^
24 //          x                 y
25 //
26 // Here both "x" and "y" expressions compare "a" with "5".  When "x" evaluates
27 // to "false", "y" can just check flags set by the first comparison.  As a
28 // result of the canonicalization employed by
29 // SelectionDAGBuilder::visitSwitchCase, DAGCombine, and other target-specific
30 // code, assembly ends up in the form that is not CSE friendly:
31 //
32 //     ...
33 //     cmp      w8, #4
34 //     b.gt     .LBB0_3
35 //     ...
36 //   .LBB0_3:
37 //     cmp      w8, #6
38 //     b.lt     .LBB0_6
39 //     ...
40 //
41 // Same assembly after the pass:
42 //
43 //     ...
44 //     cmp      w8, #5
45 //     b.ge     .LBB0_3
46 //     ...
47 //   .LBB0_3:
48 //     cmp      w8, #5     // <-- CSE pass removes this instruction
49 //     b.le     .LBB0_6
50 //     ...
51 //
52 // Currently only SUBS and ADDS followed by b.?? are supported.
53 //
54 // TODO: maybe handle TBNZ/TBZ the same way as CMP when used instead for "a < 0"
55 // TODO: handle other conditional instructions (e.g. CSET)
56 // TODO: allow second branching to be anything if it doesn't require adjusting
