Pull Request Overview
This PR enhances the JIT’s CCMP optimization by ensuring full switch chains are detected across basic blocks and by broadening the lowering phase to consider more compare operations for CCMP.
- Introduces a
testingForConversionmode inoptSwitchDetectAndConvertwith a minimum-test threshold to avoid partial CCMP. - Declares and defines
CanConvertOpToCCMPandIsOpPreferredForCCMPto guide lowering choices. - Adds
BBF_SWITCH_CONVERSION_LIKELYto mark candidate blocks and clears it on block splits.

src/coreclr/jit/switchrecognition.cpp:15
- There are no tests covering the new minimum-test threshold for CCMP conversion (fewer than 5 comparisons). Please add unit tests that verify behavior both below and above this threshold to prevent regressions.
#define CONVERT_SWITCH_TO_CCMP_MIN_TEST 5
src/coreclr/jit/lower.cpp:11664
- The newly added 'else { return false; }' appears to pair with the preceding debug-only block (e.g., after JITDUMP), causing TryLowerAndOrToCCMP to return false in normal builds. This likely disables CCMP lowering when not in verbose mode. Adjust the else so it’s scoped to the intended condition or remove it.

@dotnet/intel for further review. |

Fixes #114564. |
Yeah I re ran the CI to see if it fails again. The build analysis was clear in the previous run. |

@jakobbotsch the errors have been resolved. Other CI errors look unrelated at this time. |
|
Is it expected that the diffs are empty? |
The changes only kick in when ccmp on x64 is supported, which we don't have in SPMI. |

This PR enable more paths for CCMP(#111072) by doing the following
Control when and how many switches are converted to CCMP - A switch conversion can span across blocks but CCMP did not check across blocks and hence converted potential switch candidates to ccmp partially hence reducing the effectiveness of switch. This has been handled in this PR to make sure existing switches do not regress.
Let all candidates for CCMP go through lowering - There were priori conditions for a CCMP to happen. Although it can handle all types of nodes, it was limited to certain types of node right now. I have gone ahead and enabled CCMP on all nodes while carefully checking for which node to convert to CCMP.
