Optimize scalar and scalar pair representations loaded from ByRef in llvm in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/105653 I noticed that we were generating suboptimal LLVM IR if we had a `ConstValue::ByRef` that could be represented by a `ScalarPair`. Before https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/105653 this is probably rare, but after it, every slice will go down this suboptimal code path that requires LLVM to untangle a bunch of indirections and translate static allocations that are only used once to read a scalar pair from.
The files here use the LLVM FileCheck framework, documented at https://llvm.org/docs/CommandGuide/FileCheck.html.
One extension worth noting is the use of revisions as custom prefixes for FileCheck. If your codegen test has different behavior based on the chosen target or different compiler flags that you want to exercise, you can use a revisions annotation, like so:
// revisions: aaa bbb
// [bbb] compile-flags: --flags-for-bbb
After specifying those variations, you can write different expected, or
explicitly unexpected output by using <prefix>-SAME:
and <prefix>-NOT:
,
like so:
// CHECK: expected code
// aaa-SAME: emitted-only-for-aaa
// aaa-NOT: emitted-only-for-bbb
// bbb-NOT: emitted-only-for-aaa
// bbb-SAME: emitted-only-for-bbb
