amd64/isel: fix floating point == and != result with NaN
On x86_64, ucomis[sd] sets ZF=1, PF=0, CF=0 for equal arguments. However, if the arguments are unordered it sets ZF=1, PF=1, CF=1, and there is no jump/flag instruction for ZF=1 & PF=0 or ZF=1 & CF=0. So, in order to correctly implement ceq[sd] on x86_64, we need to be a bit more creative. There are several options available, depending on whether the result of ceq[sd] is used with jnz, or with other instructions, or both. If the result is used for a conditional jump, both gcc and clang use a combination of jp and jnz: ucomisd %xmm1, %xmm0 jp .Lfalse jnz .Lfalse ... .Lfalse: If the result is used in other instructions or return, gcc does the following for x == y: ucomisd %xmm1, %xmm0 setnp %al movzbl %al, %eax movl $0, %edx cmovne %edx, %eax This sets EAX to PF=0, then uses cmovne to clear it if ZF=0. It also takes care to avoid clobbering the flags register in case the result is also used for a conditional jump. Implementing this approach in QBE would require adding an architecture-specific instruction for cmovne. In contrast, clang does an additional compare, this time using cmpeqsd instead of ucomisd: cmpeqsd %xmm1, %xmm0 movq %xmm0, %rax andl $1, %rax The cmpeqsd instruction doas a floating point equality test, setting XMM0 to all 1s if they are equal and all 0s if they are not. However, we need the result in a non-XMM register, so it moves the result back then masks off all but the first bit. Both of these approaches are a bit awkward to implement in QBE, so instead, this commit does the following: ucomisd %xmm1, %xmm0 setz %al movzbl %al, %eax setnp %cl movzbl %cl, %ecx andl %ecx, %eax This sets the result by anding the two flags, but has a side effect of clobbering the flags register. This was a problem in one of my earlier patches to fix this issue[0], in addition to being more complex than I'd hoped. Instead, this commit always leaves the ceq[sd] instruction in the block, even if the result is only used to control a jump, so that the above instruction sequence is always used. Then, since we now have ZF=!(ZF=1 & PF=0) for x == y, or ZF=!(ZF=0 | PF=1) for x != y, we can use jnz for the jump instruction.
