Extended Description

A number of comparisons involving bit tests are converted into shifts by InstCombine and DAGCombine. However, shifts are expensive for most 8 and 16 bit targets with comparatively cheaper selects.

It is desirable that selects are emitted instead of shifts for these targets. The following cases were identified in TargetLowering and DAGCombine and were fixed by:

https://reviews.llvm.org/D69116
https://reviews.llvm.org/D69120
https://reviews.llvm.org/D69326
https://reviews.llvm.org/D70042

Cases in InstCombine remain to be fixed. In llvm-dev it has been suggested that these cases should be fixed by reversing the current canonicalisation. I am showing them in this and following reports:

REPORTED CASE:

Source code:

int foldSelectICmpAndOr( int x, int y ) // (InstCombineSelect foldSelectICmpAndOr)
{
  return (x & 128) ? (y | 2) : y;
}

IR code:

define i16 @foldSelectICmpAndOr(i16 %x, i16 %y) {
entry:
  %0 = lshr i16 %x, 6
  %1 = and i16 %0, 2
  %2 = or i16 %1, %y
  ret i16 %2
}

MSP430 Target code:

foldSelectICmpAndOr:
	clrc
	rrc	r12
	rra	r12
	rra	r12
	rra	r12
	rra	r12
	rra	r12
	and	llvm/llvm-project#374, r12
	bis	r13, r12
	ret

AVR Target code:

foldSelectICmpAndOr:
	lsr	r25
	ror	r24
	lsr	r25
	ror	r24
	lsr	r25
	ror	r24
	lsr	r25
	ror	r24
	lsr	r25
	ror	r24
	lsr	r25
	ror	r24
	andi	r24, 2
	andi	r25, 0
	or	r24, r22
	or	r25, r23
	ret

EXPECTED RESULT:

Source code:

int foldSelectICmpAndOr( int x, int y ) // (InstCombineSelect foldSelectICmpAndOr)
{
  return (x & 128) ? (y | 2) : y;
}

Expected IR code:

define i16 @foldSelectICmpAndOr(i16 %x, i16 %y) {
entry:
  %0 = trunc i16 %x to i8
  %tobool = icmp slt i8 %0, 0
  %or = or i16 %y, 2
  %cond = select i1 %tobool, i16 %or, i16 %y
  ret i16 %cond
}

Expected MSP430 Target code:

foldSelectICmpAndOr:
	tst.b	r12
	jge	.LBB7_2
	bis	llvm/llvm-project#374, r13
.LBB7_2:
	mov	r13, r12
	ret

Expected AVR Target code:

foldSelectICmpAndOr:
	tst	r24
	brpl	LBB7_2
	ori	r22, 2
LBB7_2:
	mov	r24, r22
	mov	r25, r23
	ret
