Make it cheaper to test whether an SSA name is a virtual operand
virtual_operand_p handled SSA names by looking at the flags of the underlying variable. This seems to be a relatively common source of cache misses, mainly because virtual_operand_p is the first thing tested by is_gimple_reg. This patch caches the information in the SSA name itself. Several flags seem to be free so the patch arbitrarily uses public_flag. Tested on aarch64-linux-gnu and x86_64-linux-gnu. It improves compile time by a small (<1%) but reproducable amount on the tests I've tried. gcc/ * tree-core.h (tree_base): Document the meaning of public_flag for SSA names. * tree.h (SSA_NAME_IS_VIRTUAL_OPERAND): New macro. (SET_SSA_NAME_VAR_OR_IDENTIFIER): Record whether the variable is a virtual operand. * gimple-expr.h (virtual_operand_p): Use SSA_NAME_IS_VIRTUAL_OPERAND. From-SVN: r243916
