Q: How should I expand instructions that take multiple backend instructions? Sometimes you'll have to do the expansion in your code generation -- -see, for example, ir_to_mesa.cpp's handling of ir_binop_mul for -matrices. However, in many cases you'll want to do a pass over the IR -to convert non-native instructions to a series of native instructions. -For example, for the Mesa backend we have ir_div_to_mul_rcp.cpp because +see, for example, ir_to_mesa.cpp's handling of ir_unop_sqrt.

For +example, for the Mesa backend we have ir_div_to_mul_rcp.cpp because Mesa IR (and many hardware backends) only have a reciprocal instruction, not a divide. Implementing non-native instructions this way gives the chance for constant folding to occur, so (a / 2.0) |
