Hi,
because HSA run-time currently offers very few options to debug the
HSAIL, especially when it comes to tricky things like executing a
kernel from kernel, we have resorted to introducing memory stores
solely for the purpose of debugging. While we will gladly throw them
away when HSA supports at least a debugging trap, until then we
actually quite like them.
However, they can interfere with benchmarks so we need a way of
controlling them. This patch introduces a parameter for them. I have
chosen a parameter rather than a swithch to emphasize the fact that
this part of the interface is likely to change and go away completely
in the future.
If it is too controversial, we can remove the whole concept before
merging to trunk, meanwhile, I have committed the following patch.
Thanks,
Martin

* params.def (PARAM_HSA_GEN_DEBUG_STORES): New parameter.
* hsa-gen.c: Include params.h.
(init_omp_in_prologue): Emit debug store only if
hsa-gen-debug-stores allow it.
