Nicholas good *, bloatable6 08:21
jnthnwrthngtn: yes, ASAN is back to the usual disdain for MoarVM
(and shows no interest in timo's change either)
08:49 frost left 08:52 frost joined 08:59 bisectable6 joined 09:00 squashable6 left 09:01 squashable6 joined 10:24 squashable6 left 11:26 squashable6 joined 12:02 squashable6 left, reportable6 left 12:04 reportable6 joined 12:05 squashable6 joined 13:56 frost left 16:39 notable6 left, reportable6 left, squashable6 left, shareable6 left, committable6 left, linkable6 left, coverable6 left, tellable6 left, releasable6 left, greppable6 left, bloatable6 left, statisfiable6 left, bisectable6 left, quotable6 left, nativecallable6 left, sourceable6 left, evalable6 left, benchable6 left, unicodable6 left 16:40 tellable6 joined, bisectable6 joined, releasable6 joined, committable6 joined, linkable6 joined, nativecallable6 joined, greppable6 joined 16:41 shareable6 joined, quotable6 joined, notable6 joined 16:42 reportable6 joined, coverable6 joined
timo made the absolutely smallest change in compile_mastop 17:18
17:22 lizmat_ joined 17:26 lizmat left
timo callgrinding core setting compilation to get like a comparison number but ... dang 17:32
17:36 squashable6 joined 17:41 benchable6 joined 17:42 sourceable6 joined 17:55 lizmat_ left 17:56 lizmat joined 18:02 reportable6 left 18:04 reportable6 joined 18:08 brrt joined
Nicholas good *, brrt 18:10
brrt good * Nicholas
any more quests for me
Nicholas "JIT all the things"
(A joke) 18:11
seriously - keep having fun
brrt :-) 18:12
18:25 squashable6 left
timo i mean, i'm still not sure how we'll be doing devirtualization of reprops and such in the exprjit 18:25
but that's probably not just a little weekend project 18:26
brrt it's not... I forgot what was the holdup for that 18:28
well, I recall what was my theory at least
timo probably "how to get the information were it needs to go"
my h key is acting up today
brrt the theory was to add a method to the repr to allow it to add a template
well, something like that
and then... to have some way to create an includable header file, from a template file, that you could address-and-load by name 18:29
and then the repr method would need to get the spesh graph so it could get facts
timo tis all goes in the main moarvm repo so we can probably make it hook in all the places we need it 18:30
brrt yeah
it's doable, it's just a bunch of plumbing
Makefile plumbing, too 18:31
timo the spes method on the repr already gets the spesh graph so it can check facts and such
how do we mark wat operations should go throug te repr's bonus function?
brrt ehm,... oh, I had a theory of that too; 18:32
the first input operand should be an object; and we should know the type of that object 18:33
timo don't forget our attribute related ops also take "the type that actually has the attributes" argument 18:34
but that very often just comes from a wval
18:41 statisfiable6 joined, unicodable6 joined
timo what has to actually happen so that the expr template written for a given reprop in a given repr ends up in the right spot? 18:41
18:42 evalable6 joined
timo can we just return something specific from the function and the exprjit engine can easily do the rest? 18:42
18:42 bloatable6 joined
timo i wonder if we can benefit from knowing values for some registers when they are used in templates for cases where refering to a moarvm register is more expensive than having an immediate value 18:47
m: say (2500 + 280 + 530 + 80) / 60 19:06
camelia 56.5
timo oof. almost an hour to callgrind my core setting compilation
19:26 squashable6 joined
timo m: say 2500 / 60 19:31
camelia 41.666667
brrt timo: that's mostly the idea yes; the method gets the tree, and it should be able to append its subtree for it, using templates that were generated for it 19:48
20:03 brrt left 22:12 sourceable6 left, benchable6 left, reportable6 left, statisfiable6 left, committable6 left, coverable6 left, nativecallable6 left, notable6 left, quotable6 left, evalable6 left, linkable6 left, shareable6 left, squashable6 left, releasable6 left, bisectable6 left, unicodable6 left, tellable6 left, bloatable6 left, greppable6 left, squashable6 joined 22:14 bisectable6 joined, benchable6 joined, reportable6 joined 22:15 coverable6 joined, unicodable6 joined, sourceable6 joined, releasable6 joined 22:26 TempIRCLogger left, TempIRCLogger joined
timo i think the callgrind measurement was far too noisy 22:31
23:12 quotable6 joined 23:13 evalable6 joined, committable6 joined 23:15 greppable6 joined, tellable6 joined
timo so the exprjit repr function could return a template for the rest of the loop in MVM_jit_expr_tree_build to consume, or it could be asked to do all the remaining work by itself. I'm thinking we want to allow one of the two for common cases and the other for wen you need more control in your template? 23:36
so, a status return value and a MVMJitExprTemplate ** parameter for when the/a template should be taken from te repr's exprjit function and treated as normal 23:37
aaaanyway i have a first draft of a little bit of the C that we'd need 23:45
Geth MoarVM/exprjit_repr_api: 0d5ab06374 | (Timo Paulssen)++ | 47 files
add new function pointer to REPROps: exprjit

here a repr could output a specialized tree for a given op, based on whatever is in the reprdata and known facts from the spesh graph.
23:50
MoarVM/exprjit_repr_api: d3949ccb1a | (Timo Paulssen)++ | src/jit/expr.c
call a repr's exprjit function if it exists

  (none exist at the moment)
timo calling all brrt's for review of this ;)
