It seems like it might be a legitimate complaint from the register allocator.
It's trying to get an accumulator (not a general purpose register) and the accumulator is 64 bit.
It's using a part of the Mips backend that I have not worked in so I have to research this a bit.
The multiply instruction is a pseudo multiply in the mips backend and it needs the accumulator which a special register and there is only one and it has special properties. This may normally be getting sorted out by some code which is not present during fast-isel.

It apparently just generates bad code and continues? // Nothing we can do. Report an error and keep going with a bad allocation. if (MI->isInlineAsm()) MI->emitError("inline assembly requires more registers than available"); else MI->emitError("ran out of registers during register allocation");
How is it possible to run out of registers during register allocation? Lol. This seems to be one of the more common errors when you get a MI instruction definition wrong. In particular, I saw this a lot when experimenting with various lowering strategies for the statepoint work. I'd suggest trying to reduce the example using bugpoint and looking closely at the machine instructions. Reed
