  Optimize vec_splats of constant V2DI/V2DF vec_extract, PR target/99293.

This patch has been previously posted, but it seemed to get lost.:

| Date: Tue, 29 Mar 2022 23:25:31 -0400
| Subject: [PATCH, V2] Optimize vec_splats of constant vec_extract for V2DI/V2DF, PR target 99293.
| Message-ID: <YkPNq3oeJYGjr+Th@toto.the-meissners.org>
| https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2022-March/592509.html

I had originally posted a previous version of this patch here.  There were
changes asked for, which I did in this patch.

| Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2022 12:26:02 -0400
| Subject: [PATCH 1/4] Optimize vec_splats of constant vec_extract for V2DI/V2DF, PR target 99293.
| Message-ID: <YkHhmvwSJF7DUDhJ@toto.the-meissners.org>
| https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2022-March/592420.html

In PR target/99293, it was pointed out that doing:

	vector long long dest0, dest1, src;
	/* ... */
	dest0 = vec_splats (vec_extract (src, 0));
	dest1 = vec_splats (vec_extract (src, 1));

would generate slower code.

It generates the following code on power8:

	;; vec_splats (vec_extract (src, 0))
	xxpermdi 0,34,34,3
	xxpermdi 34,0,0,0

	;; vec_splats (vec_extract (src, 1))
	xxlor 0,34,34
	xxpermdi 34,0,0,0

However on power9 and power10 it generates:

	;; vec_splats (vec_extract (src, 0))
	mfvsld 3,34
	mtvsrdd 34,9,9

	;; vec_splats (vec_extract (src, 1))
	mfvsrd 9,34
	mtvsrdd 34,9,9

This is due to the power9 having the mfvsrld instruction which can extract
either 64-bit element into a GPR.  While there are alternatives for both
vector registers and GPR registers, the register allocator prefers to put
DImode into GPR registers.

However in this case, it is better to have a single combiner pattern that
can generate a single xxpermdi, instead of doing 2 insnsns (the extract
and then the concat).  This is particularly true if the two operations are
move from vector register and move to vector register.  As Segher pointed
out in a previous version of the patch, the combiner already tries doing
creating a (vec_duplicate (vec_select ...)) pattern, but we didn't provide
one.

This patch reworks vsx_xxspltd_<mode> for V2DImode and V2DFmode so that it
no longer uses an UNSPEC.  Instead it uses VEC_DUPLICATE, which the
combiner checks for.

I have built Spec 2017 with this patch installed, and the cam4_r benchmark
is the only benchmark that generated different code (3 mfvsrld/mtvsrdd
pairs of instructions were replaced with xxpermdi).

I have built bootstrap versions on the following systems and I have run
the regression tests.  There were no regressions in the runs:

	Power9 little endian, --with-cpu=power9
	Power10 little endian, --with-cpu=power10
	Power8 big endian, --with-cpu=power8 (both 32-bit & 64-bit tests)

Can I install this into the trunk?  After a burn-in period, can I backport
and install this into GCC 12, GCC 11 and GCC 10 branches?

Hi, 
generally lgtm.  A few typos and comment suggests called out below. 
Thanks.

I like the idea of insnsns being the plural of insn.

A good comment, but would be better if it described the current
behavior, versus what the behavior used to be. 
Could probably be
reworked to stl
s/Previously.../  This test insures that the result of the <foo>splats
now results in an xxpermdi for these scenarios.   Prior to the fix for
PR99263 the generated code was mfvs#d and mtvsrdd, which is nonoptimal.

Please first fix the issues that have been pointer out.  To avoid
unnecessary work on all sides.
