Hi,

Here is a patch introducing new type and mode for bounds. It is a part of MPX ISA support patch (http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-07/msg01094.html).

Bootstrapped and tested on linux-x86_64. Is it OK for trunk?

Thanks,
Ilya

Hey guys,

could please someone look at this small patch? It blocks approved MPX
ISA support on i386 target.

Thanks,
Ilya

So why are bounds distinct modes?    Is there some inherent reason why 
bounds are something other than an integer mode (MODE_INT)?

Similarly what's the rationale behind having new types for bounds?  Is 
there some reason why they couldn't be implemented with one of the 
existing types?

ISTM the entire patch is gated on being able to answer those two questions.

Hello Jeff,

Before introducing new type and mode we tried to implement everything
using existing ones. We tried integers, pointers, complex with pointer
type as base and also structure of two pointers. The problem is that
semantics of bounds is different from everything we have for base
types. All operators (exprs) we have for existing types are not
applicable to bounds. We probably may use some existing type/mode but
it would still require some additional flag to mark bounds. And almost
each first time we handle chosen basic type, it would be required to
check if we are working with bounds. I do not think many GCC
developers (at least in the nearest future) will care about
instrumented code while writing their patches. It means that many
developers may break instrumented code by adding any sort of
manipulation with values of type/mode we choose as basic for bounds.
I'm sure having a proper type is much more convenient and natural.

In addition to all said for bound type, bound mode may also have
different binary format. On i386 target bounds have special binary
format, it is not equal to pair of pointers. In many places (ABI, insn
templates etc.) we need to know if we work with bounds. E. g. passing
'long long' and bounds on a register(s) is different even if size is
the same.

Shortly: why to use same base type/mode for totally different matters?
I do not know if it is possible to implement everything using existing
types and modes. Probably it is possible, but for me it does not seem
a right way to go.

Thanks,
Ilya

I suggested the distinct modes during the NDA phase.

The primary reason for this is that MPX is designed to be kind of
backward compatible with previous ISAs, operating as nops.  Thus
we cannot allow the compiler to use the MPX registers for anything
besides implementing the bounds checking.

The only way I could think to positively ensure that normal operations
didn't get implemented via mpx insns is to describe the new patterns
with distinct modes.

Right.

Presumably once we have a distinct mode, we do the right magic in 
HARD_REGNO_MODE_OK and that's how you get your guarantee.  I'm assuming 
we're exposing these to the register allocator (I haven't looked at the 
full series yet).

Presumably you need a distinct mode coming out of the front-end/gimple 
to ensure we get the new mode in RTL.

It all seems reasonable -- I wasn't asking Ilya to change anything, I'm 
just trying to understand the rationale before going any further with 
the patch and this helps considerably.

Yeah, the register allocator was supposed to be involved.
(And I need to review the series myself.)

Yes, which is where I believe the new types come from as well.

OK.  Thanks for clarifying.  I'm about to go offline for a few hours, 
but will start working my way through the MPX stuff.

Mostly OK.  Just a few minor things that should be fixed or at least 
clarified.

I can't help but feel more is needed here -- without going into the 
details of the MPX implementation we ought to say something about how 
these differ from the more normal integer modes.  Drawing from the brief 
discussion between Richard & myself earlier today should give some ideas 
on how to improve this.



I'd probably use MODE_POINTER_BOUNDS which is a bit more descriptive. 
We wouldn't want someone to (for example) think this stuff relates to 
array bounds.  Obviously a change to MODE_POINTER_BOUNDS would propagate 
into other places where you use "BOUND" without a "POINTER" 
qualification, such as "BOUND_MODE_P" which we'd change to 
POINTER_BOUNDS_MODE_P.

Does genmodes do the right thing WRT MAX_INT_MODE and MIN_INT_MODE?

I'd be more comfortable if MODE_POINTER_BOUNDS wasn't sitting between 
MODE_INT and MODE_PARTIAL_INT.  I'm not aware of code that iterates over 
these things that would get confused, but ISTM putting 
MODE_POINTER_BOUNDS after MODE_PARTIAL_INT is marginally safer.

So here you're effectively treading POINTER_BOUNDS_TYPE like an integer. 
  I'm guessing there's a number of flags that may not be relevant for 
your type and which you might want to repurpose (again, I haven't looked 
at the entire patchset).  If so, you want to be real careful here since 
you'll be looking at (for example) TYPE_UNSIGNED which may not have any 
real meaning for POINTER_BOUNDS_TYPE.

Overall, it seems fairly reasonable -- the biggest concern of mine is in 
the last comment.  Are you going to be repurposing various flag bits in 
the type?  If so, then we have to be more careful in code like above.
