10 // This file defines the interface for the MachineTraceMetrics analysis pass
11 // that estimates CPU resource usage and critical data dependency paths through
12 // preferred traces. This is useful for super-scalar CPUs where execution speed
13 // can be limited both by data dependencies and by limited execution resources.
14 //
15 // Out-of-order CPUs will often be executing instructions from multiple basic
16 // blocks at the same time. This makes it difficult to estimate the resource
17 // usage accurately in a single basic block. Resources can be estimated better
18 // by looking at a trace through the current basic block.
19 //
20 // For every block, the MachineTraceMetrics pass will pick a preferred trace
21 // that passes through the block. The trace is chosen based on loop structure,
22 // branch probabilities, and resource usage. The intention is to pick likely
23 // traces that would be the most affected by code transformations.
24 //
25 // It is expensive to compute a full arbitrary trace for every block, so to
26 // save some computations, traces are chosen to be convergent. This means that
27 // if the traces through basic blocks A and B ever cross when moving away from
28 // A and B, they never diverge again. This applies in both directions - If the
29 // traces meet above A and B, they won't diverge when going further back.
30 //
31 // Traces tend to align with loops. The trace through a block in an inner loop
32 // will begin at the loop entry block and end at a back edge. If there are
33 // nested loops, the trace may begin and end at those instead.
34 //
35 // For each trace, we compute the critical path length, which is the number of
36 // cycles required to execute the trace when execution is limited by data
37 // dependencies only. We also compute the resource height, which is the number
38 // of cycles required to execute all instructions in the trace when ignoring
39 // data dependencies.
40 //
41 // Every instruction in the current block has a slack - the number of cycles
42 // execution of the instruction can be delayed without extending the critical
43 // path.
