Alyssa Rosenzweig 569e5dc745 pan/bi: Schedule for pressure pre-RA
Add a bottom-up pre-RA list scheduler that aims to reduce register pressure,
roughly the same as we use on Midgard to great effect. It uses a simple
heuristic: greedily select instructions that have reduce liveness.  To avoid
regressions, the algorithm throws away schedules that increase maximum number of
lives (used as an estimate of register pressure -- if we had SSA form, this
would be exact).

We might be better off using Sarkar. But for something I could type out in an
afternoon, I'll happily accept a >50% reduction in spills. Instruction count is
regressed due to extra moves around the blend shader ABI in some cases, at least
on Bifrost this is mostly hidden by the clause scheduler. Thread count and
spills/fills are both much improved here.

There are numerous opportunities for future improvements to pre-RA scheduling:

* Better heuristics? (Something more global than liveness alone)
* Reducing false dependencies with memory access
* Improve ILP for message-passing instructions? This is a tradeoff.
* Simplify the code if we have SSA in the future.

But for now, I think this is well worth it already.

v2: Various clean-ups and memory leak fix (Icecream95). Reduce false
dependencies to eliminate spilling in more shaders.

======================================================


Source
------

This repository lives at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa.
Other repositories are likely forks, and code found there is not supported.


Build & install
---------------

You can find more information in our documentation (`docs/install.rst
<https://mesa3d.org/install.html>`_), but the recommended way is to use
Meson (`docs/meson.rst <https://mesa3d.org/meson.html>`_):

.. code-block:: sh

  $ mkdir build
  $ cd build
  $ meson ..
  $ sudo ninja install


Support
-------

Many Mesa devs hang on IRC; if you're not sure which channel is
appropriate, you should ask your question on `OFTC's #dri-devel
<irc://irc.oftc.net/dri-devel>`_, someone will redirect you if
necessary.
Remember that not everyone is in the same timezone as you, so it might
take a while before someone qualified sees your question.
To figure out who you're talking to, or which nick to ping for your
question, check out `Who's Who on IRC
<https://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/WhosWho/>`_.

The next best option is to ask your question in an email to the
mailing lists: `mesa-dev\@lists.freedesktop.org
<https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev>`_


Bug reports
-----------

If you think something isn't working properly, please file a bug report
(`docs/bugs.rst <https://mesa3d.org/bugs.html>`_).
