      cmd/gc: contiguous loop layout · 001b75c9
      Russ Cox authored
      Drop expecttaken function in favor of extra argument
      to gbranch and bgen. Mark loop condition as likely to
      be true, so that loops are generated inline.
      
      The main benefit here is contiguous code when trying
      to read the generated assembly. It has only minor effects
      on the timing, and they mostly cancel the minor effects
      that aligning function entry points had.  One exception:
      both changes made Fannkuch faster.

      cmd/6l, cmd/8l, cmd/5l: add AUNDEF instruction · f2bd3a97
      Russ Cox authored
      On 6l and 8l, this is a real instruction, guaranteed to
      cause an 'undefined instruction' exception.
      
      On 5l, we simulate it as BL to address 0.
      
      The plan is to use it as a signal to the linker that this
      point in the instruction stream cannot be reached
      (hence the changes to nofollow).  This will help the
      compiler explain that panicindex and friends do not
      return without having to put a list of these functions
      in the linker.

      cmd/ld: align function entry on arch-specific boundary · 8820ab5d
      Russ Cox authored
      16 seems pretty standard on x86 for function entry.
      I don't know if ARM would benefit, so I used just 4
      (single instruction alignment).
      
      This has a minor absolute effect on the current timings.
      The main hope is that it will make them more consistent from
      run to run.

      The code was inconsistent about when it used
      brchain(x) and when it used x directly, with the result
      that you could end up emitting code for brchain(x) but
      leave the jump pointing at an unemitted x.

      cmd/6g: avoid MOVSD between registers · a768de83
      Russ Cox authored
      MOVSD only copies the low half of the packed register pair,
      while MOVAPD copies both halves.  I assume the internal
      register renaming works better with the latter, since it makes
      our code run 25% faster.

      mandelbrot 16000

              gc mandelbrot	44.12u 0.00s 44.13r

      Surprise! The C code is using floating point values for its counters.
      Its off the critical path, but the Go code and C code are supposed to
      be as similar as possible to make comparisons meaningful.
      
      It doesn't have a significant effect.

      misc/emacs: Use patch output of gofmt instead of replacing the buffer. · 7b6111a9
      Jean-Marc Eurin authored
      This uses the patch output of gofmt (-d option) and applies each
      chunk to the buffer, instead of replacing the whole buffer.  The
      main advantage is that the undo history is kept across gofmt'ings,
      so it can really be used as a before-save-hook.

      cmd/6g: change sbop swap logic · de96df1b
      Russ Cox authored
      I added the nl->op == OLITERAL case during the recent
      performance round, and while it helps for small integer constants,
      it hurts for floating point constants.  In the Mandelbrot benchmark
      it causes 2*Zr*Zi to compile like Zr*2*Zi:
      
              0x000000000042663d <+249>:	movsd  %xmm6,%xmm0
              0x0000000000426641 <+253>:	movsd  $2,%xmm1
              0x000000000042664a <+262>:	mulsd  %xmm1,%xmm0
              0x000000000042664e <+266>:	mulsd  %xmm5,%xmm0
      
      instead of:
      
              0x0000000000426835 <+276>:	movsd  $2,%xmm0
              0x000000000042683e <+285>:	mulsd  %xmm6,%xmm0
              0x0000000000426842 <+289>:	mulsd  %xmm5,%xmm0
      
      It is unclear why that has such a dramatic performance effect
      in a tight loop, but it's obviously slightly better code, so go with it.
