cmd/compile: improve rules for PPC64.rules This adds some improvements to the rules for PPC64 to eliminate unnecessary zero or sign extends, and fix some rule for truncates which were not always using the correct sign instruction. This reduces of size of many functions by 1 or 2 instructions and can improve performance in cases where the execution time depends on small loops where at least 1 instruction was removed and where that loop contributes a significant amount of the total execution time. Included is a testcase for codegen to verify the sign/zero extend instructions are omitted. An example of the improvement (strings): IndexAnyASCII/256:1-16 392ns ± 0% 369ns ± 0% -5.79% (p=0.000 n=1+10) IndexAnyASCII/256:2-16 397ns ± 0% 376ns ± 0% -5.23% (p=0.000 n=1+9) IndexAnyASCII/256:4-16 405ns ± 0% 384ns ± 0% -5.19% (p=1.714 n=1+6) IndexAnyASCII/256:8-16 427ns ± 0% 403ns ± 0% -5.57% (p=0.000 n=1+10) IndexAnyASCII/256:16-16 441ns ± 0% 418ns ± 1% -5.33% (p=0.000 n=1+10) IndexAnyASCII/4096:1-16 5.62µs ± 0% 5.27µs ± 1% -6.31% (p=0.000 n=1+10) IndexAnyASCII/4096:2-16 5.67µs ± 0% 5.29µs ± 0% -6.67% (p=0.222 n=1+8) IndexAnyASCII/4096:4-16 5.66µs ± 0% 5.28µs ± 1% -6.66% (p=0.000 n=1+10) IndexAnyASCII/4096:8-16 5.66µs ± 0% 5.31µs ± 1% -6.10% (p=0.000 n=1+10) IndexAnyASCII/4096:16-16 5.70µs ± 0% 5.33µs ± 1% -6.43% (p=0.182 n=1+10) Change-Id: I739a6132b505936d39001aada5a978ff2a5f0500 Reviewed-on: https://go-review.googlesource.com/129875 Reviewed-by: David Chase <drchase@google.com>
