The following tries to address the PHI insertion compile-time hog in RTL fwprop observed with the PR54052 testcase where the loop computing the "unfiltered" set of variables possibly needing PHI nodes for each block exhibits quadratic compile-time and memory-use.
Instead of only pruning the set of candidate regs by LR_IN in the second worklist loop do this when computing "unfiltered" already. Bootstrapped on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, testing in progress. I'll note that in PR98863 you say in comment#39 "Just to give an update on this: I have a patch that reduces the amount of memory consumed by fwprop so that it no longer seems to be outlier. However, it involves doing more bitmap operations. In this testcase we have a larger number of registers that seem to be live but unused across a large region of code, so bitmap ANDs with the live in sets are expensive and hit the worst-case O(nblocksnregisters). I'm still trying to find a way of reducing the effect of that." suggesting that the very AND operation I'm introducing below was an actual problem. It's just not very clear what testcase this was on (the PR hasn't one, it just talks about WRF with LTO and then some individual TUs of it). Indeed the patch doesn't do anything about quadraticness but it seems to effectively reduce the size of 'unfiltered' (but bringing in LR_IN into the workset). For the PR54052 testcase this improves compile-time from 1420s to 64s and slightly reduces peak memory use (I would have expected more but didn't do any statistics on the 'unfiltered' bitmaps themselves). OK for trunk and branches if tests go well? Thanks, Richard.
