    [regalloc] Ensure ranges are split at gap positions · 7f542d25
    Thibaud Michaud authored
    Splitting a range at an instruction position can lead to incorrect code
    generation. See the attached bug for a concrete example of that, in
    particular comment 6.
    
    The issue is when we add a gap move to connect the split ranges during
    the ConnectLiveRanges phase. If the split position is a gap position,
    the move coincides with the start of the range. But if the split
    position is an instruction position, the move is inserted in the last
    gap position, which is outside of the range. This violates assumptions
    made during the main register allocation phase and can invalidate the
    use of that register in a different range.
    
    The fix proposed here works by moving the split position backwards to
    the previous gap position. This ensures that the connecting gap move is
    always at the start of the range that it defines.
