cmd/compile: add generic rules to eliminate some unnecessary stores
Eliminates stores of values that have just been loaded from the same location. Handles the common case where there are up to 3 intermediate stores to non-overlapping struct fields. For example the loads and stores of x.a, x.b and x.d in the following function are now removed: type T struct { a, b, c, d int } func f(x *T) { y := *x y.c += 8 *x = y } Before this CL (s390x): TEXT "".f(SB) MOVD "".x(R15), R5 MOVD (R5), R1 MOVD 8(R5), R2 MOVD 16(R5), R0 MOVD 24(R5), R4 ADD $8, R0, R3 STMG R1, R4, (R5) RET After this CL (s390x): TEXT "".f(SB) MOVD "".x(R15), R1 MOVD 16(R1), R0 ADD $8, R0, R0 MOVD R0, 16(R1) RET In total these rules are triggered ~5091 times during all.bash, which is broken down as: Intermediate stores | Triggered --------------------+---------- 0 | 1434 1 | 2508 2 | 888 3 | 261 --------------------+---------- Change-Id: Ia4721ae40146aceec1fdd3e65b0e9283770bfba5 Reviewed-on: https://go-review.googlesource.com/38793 Run-TryBot: Michael Munday <munday@ca.ibm.com> TryBot-Result: Gobot Gobot <gobot@golang.org> Reviewed-by: Keith Randall <khr@golang.org>
