This // implementation leverages the basic block section framework. Blocks marked // cold by this pass are grouped together in a separate section prefixed with // ".text.unlikely.*". The linker can then group these together as a cold // section. The split part of the function is a contiguous region identified by // the symbol "foo.cold". Grouping all cold blocks across functions together // decreases fragmentation and improves icache and itlb utilization. Note that // the overall changes to the binary size are negligible; only a small number of // additional jump instructions may be introduced. // // For the original RFC of this pass please see // https://groups.google.com/d/msg/llvm-dev/RUegaMg-iqc/wFAVxa6fCgAJ //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// #include "llvm/ADT/SmallVector.h" #include "llvm/Analysis/ProfileSummaryInfo.h" #include "llvm/CodeGen/BasicBlockSectionUtils.h" #include "llvm/CodeGen/MachineBasicBlock.h" #include "llvm/CodeGen/MachineBlockFrequencyInfo.h" #include "llvm/CodeGen/MachineFunction.h" #include "llvm/CodeGen/MachineFunctionPass.h" #include "llvm/CodeGen/MachineModuleInfo.h" #include "llvm/CodeGen/Passes.h" #include "llvm/IR/Function.h" #include "llvm/InitializePasses.h" #include "llvm/Support/CommandLine.h" using namespace llvm; // FIXME: This cutoff value is CPU dependent and should be moved to // TargetTransformInfo once we consider enabling this on other platforms. // The value is expressed as a ProfileSummaryInfo integer percentile cutoff. // Defaults to 999950, i.e. all blocks colder than 99.995 percentile are split. // The default was empirically determined to be optimal when considering cutoff // values between 99%-ile to 100%-ile with respect to iTLB and icache metrics on // Intel CPUs. static cl::opt PercentileCutoff("mfs-psi-cutoff", cl::desc("Percentile profile summary cutoff used to " "determine cold blocks.
