Series [v4] xtensa: Eliminate unnecessary general-purpose reg-reg moves |

Commit Message

  Register-register move instructions that can be easily seen as
unnecessary by the human eye may remain in the compiled result.
For example:

/* example */
double test(double a, double b) {
  return __builtin_copysign(a, b);
}

test:
	add.n	a3, a3, a3
	extui	a5, a5, 31, 1
	ssai	1
				;; be in the same BB
	src	a7, a5, a3	;; No '0' in the source constraints
				;; The destination replaced is
				;;   irrelevant to the sources if the
				;;   destination constraint has '&'
				;; No CALL insns in this span
				;; Both A3 and A7 are irrelevant to
				;;   insns in this span
	mov.n	a3, a7		;; An unnecessary reg-reg move
				;; A7 is not used after this
	ret.n

The last two instructions above, excluding the return instruction,
could be done like this:

	src	a3, a5, a3

This symptom often occurs when handling DI/DFmode values with SImode
instructions.  This patch solves the above problem using peephole2
pattern.

gcc/ChangeLog:

	* config/xtensa/xtensa.md: New peephole2 pattern that eliminates
	the occurrence of general-purpose register used only once and for
	transferring intermediate value.

gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog:

	* gcc.target/xtensa/elim_GP_regmove.c: New.

This change breaks windowed builds by the following ICEs:

libgcc/libgcov-interface.c: In function ‘__gcov_execlp’:
libgcc/libgcov-interface.c:263:1: error: insn does not satisfy its constraints:
 263 | }
     | ^
(insn 96 95 98 11 (set (reg/f:SI 1 sp)
       (minus:SI (reg/f:SI 1 sp)
           (reg:SI 8 a8 [85]))) "libgcc/libgcov-interface.c":253:20 4 {subsi3}
    (expr_list:REG_DEAD (reg:SI 8 a8 [85])
       (nil)))
during RTL pass: cprop_hardreg
libgcc/libgcov-interface.c:263:1: internal compiler error: in
extract_constrain_insn, at recog.cc:2692

It also introduces at least one regression in executable tests
in call0 build, I haven't tracked it down yet.
