//===- llvm/Analysis/AliasAnalysis.h - Alias Analysis Interface -*- C++ -*-===//
//
// The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
//
// This file is distributed under the University of Illinois Open Source
// License. See LICENSE.TXT for details.
//
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//
//
// This file defines the generic AliasAnalysis interface, which is used as the
// common interface used by all clients of alias analysis information, and
// implemented by all alias analysis implementations. Mod/Ref information is
// also captured by this interface.
//
// Implementations of this interface must implement the various virtual methods,
// which automatically provides functionality for the entire suite of client
// APIs.
//
// This API identifies memory regions with the MemoryLocation class. The pointer
2010-11-11 18:33:39 +01:00
// component specifies the base memory address of the region. The Size specifies
// the maximum size (in address units) of the memory region, or
// MemoryLocation::UnknownSize if the size is not known. The TBAA tag
// identifies the "type" of the memory reference; see the
// TypeBasedAliasAnalysis class for details.
2010-11-11 18:33:39 +01:00
//
// Some non-obvious details include:
// - Pointers that point to two completely different objects in memory never
// alias, regardless of the value of the Size component.
// - NoAlias doesn't imply inequal pointers. The most obvious example of this
// is two pointers to constant memory. Even if they are equal, constant
// memory is never stored to, so there will never be any dependencies.
// In this and other situations, the pointers may be both NoAlias and
// MustAlias at the same time. The current API can only return one result,
// though this is rarely a problem in practice.

[PM/AA] Rebuild LLVM's alias analysis infrastructure in a way compatible with the new pass manager, and no longer relying on analysis groups. This builds essentially a ground-up new AA infrastructure stack for LLVM. The core ideas are the same that are used throughout the new pass manager: type erased polymorphism and direct composition. The design is as follows: - FunctionAAResults is a type-erasing alias analysis results aggregation interface to walk a single query across a range of results from different alias analyses. Currently this is function-specific as we always assume that aliasing queries are *within* a function. - AAResultBase is a CRTP utility providing stub implementations of various parts of the alias analysis result concept, notably in several cases in terms of other more general parts of the interface. This can be used to implement only a narrow part of the interface rather than the entire interface. This isn't really ideal, this logic should be hoisted into FunctionAAResults as currently it will cause a significant amount of redundant work, but it faithfully models the behavior of the prior infrastructure. - All the alias analysis passes are ported to be wrapper passes for the legacy PM and new-style analysis passes for the new PM with a shared result object. In some cases (most notably CFL), this is an extremely naive approach that we should revisit when we can specialize for the new pass manager. - BasicAA has been restructured to reflect that it is much more fundamentally a function analysis because it uses dominator trees and loop info that need to be constructed for each function. All of the references to getting alias analysis results have been updated to use the new aggregation interface. All the preservation and other pass management code has been updated accordingly. The way the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass works is to detect the available alias analyses when run, and add them to the results object. This means that we should be able to continue to respect when various passes are added to the pipeline, for example adding CFL or adding TBAA passes should just cause their results to be available and to get folded into this. The exception to this rule is BasicAA which really needs to be a function pass due to using dominator trees and loop info. As a consequence, the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass directly depends on BasicAA and always includes it in the aggregation. This has significant implications for preserving analyses. Generally, most passes shouldn't bother preserving FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass because rebuilding the results just updates the set of known AA passes. The exception to this rule are LoopPass instances which need to preserve all the function analyses that the loop pass manager will end up needing. This means preserving both BasicAAWrapperPass and the aggregating FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass. Now, when preserving an alias analysis, you do so by directly preserving that analysis. This is only necessary for non-immutable-pass-provided alias analyses though, and there are only three of interest: BasicAA, GlobalsAA (formerly GlobalsModRef), and SCEVAA. Usually BasicAA is preserved when needed because it (like DominatorTree and LoopInfo) is marked as a CFG-only pass. I've expanded GlobalsAA into the preserved set everywhere we previously were preserving all of AliasAnalysis, and I've added SCEVAA in the intersection of that with where we preserve SCEV itself. One significant challenge to all of this is that the CGSCC passes were actually using the alias analysis implementations by taking advantage of a pretty amazing set of loop holes in the old pass manager's analysis management code which allowed analysis groups to slide through in many cases. Moving away from analysis groups makes this problem much more obvious. To fix it, I've leveraged the flexibility the design of the new PM components provides to just directly construct the relevant alias analyses for the relevant functions in the IPO passes that need them. This is a bit hacky, but should go away with the new pass manager, and is already in many ways cleaner than the prior state. Another significant challenge is that various facilities of the old alias analysis infrastructure just don't fit any more. The most significant of these is the alias analysis 'counter' pass. That pass relied on the ability to snoop on AA queries at different points in the analysis group chain. Instead, I'm planning to build printing functionality directly into the aggregation layer. I've not included that in this patch merely to keep it smaller. Note that all of this needs a nearly complete rewrite of the AA documentation. I'm planning to do that, but I'd like to make sure the new design settles, and to flesh out a bit more of what it looks like in the new pass manager first.

[AA] Hoist the logic to reformulate various AA queries in terms of other parts of the AA interface out of the base class of every single AA result object. Because this logic reformulates the query in terms of some other aspect of the API, it would easily cause O(n^2) query patterns in alias analysis. These could in turn be magnified further based on the number of call arguments, and then further based on the number of AA queries made for a particular call. This ended up causing problems for Rust that were actually noticable enough to get a bug (PR26564) and probably other places as well. When originally re-working the AA infrastructure, the desire was to regularize the pattern of refinement without losing any generality. While I think it was successful, that is clearly proving to be too costly. And the cost is needless: we gain no actual improvement for this generality of making a direct query to tbaa actually be able to re-use some other alias analysis's refinement logic for one of the other APIs, or some such. In short, this is entirely wasted work. To the extent possible, delegation to other API surfaces should be done at the aggregation layer so that we can avoid re-walking the aggregation. In fact, this significantly simplifies the logic as we no longer need to smuggle the aggregation layer into each alias analysis (or the TargetLibraryInfo into each alias analysis just so we can form argument memory locations!). However, we also have some delegation logic inside of BasicAA and some of it even makes sense. When the delegation logic is baking in specific knowledge of aliasing properties of the LLVM IR, as opposed to simply reformulating the query to utilize a different alias analysis interface entry point, it makes a lot of sense to restrict that logic to a different layer such as BasicAA. So one aspect of the delegation that was in every AA base class is that when we don't have operand bundles, we re-use function AA results as a fallback for callsite alias results. This relies on the IR properties of calls and functions w.r.t. aliasing, and so seems a better fit to BasicAA. I've lifted the logic up to that point where it seems to be a natural fit. This still does a bit of redundant work (we query function attributes twice, once via the callsite and once via the function AA query) but it is *exactly* twice here, no more. The end result is that all of the delegation logic is hoisted out of the base class and into either the aggregation layer when it is a pure retargeting to a different API surface, or into BasicAA when it relies on the IR's aliasing properties. This should fix the quadratic query pattern reported in PR26564, although I don't have a stand-alone test case to reproduce it. It also seems general goodness. Now the numerous AAs that don't need target library info don't carry it around and depend on it. I think I can even rip out the general access to the aggregation layer and only expose that in BasicAA as it is the only place where we re-query in that manner. However, this is a non-trivial change to the AA infrastructure so I want to get some additional eyes on this before it lands. Sadly, it can't wait long because we should really cherry pick this into 3.8 if we're going to go this route. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D17329 llvm-svn: 262490

Moving away from analysis groups makes this problem much more obvious. To fix it, I've leveraged the flexibility the design of the new PM components provides to just directly construct the relevant alias analyses for the relevant functions in the IPO passes that need them. This is a bit hacky, but should go away with the new pass manager, and is already in many ways cleaner than the prior state. Another significant challenge is that various facilities of the old alias analysis infrastructure just don't fit any more. The most significant of these is the alias analysis 'counter' pass.

[PM/AA] Rebuild LLVM's alias analysis infrastructure in a way compatible with the new pass manager, and no longer relying on analysis groups. This builds essentially a ground-up new AA infrastructure stack for LLVM. The core ideas are the same that are used throughout the new pass manager: type erased polymorphism and direct composition. The design is as follows: - FunctionAAResults is a type-erasing alias analysis results aggregation interface to walk a single query across a range of results from different alias analyses.

This can be used to implement only a narrow part of the interface rather than the entire interface. This isn't really ideal, this logic should be hoisted into FunctionAAResults as currently it will cause a significant amount of redundant work, but it faithfully models the behavior of the prior infrastructure. - All the alias analysis passes are ported to be wrapper passes for the legacy PM and new-style analysis passes for the new PM with a shared result object.

ModRefInfo getArgModRefInfo(ImmutableCallSite CS, unsigned ArgIdx);
Improve BasicAA CS-CS queries (redux) This reverts, "r213024 - Revert r212572 "improve BasicAA CS-CS queries", it causes PR20303." with a fix for the bug in pr20303. As it turned out, the relevant code was both wrong and over-conservative (because, as with the code it replaced, it would return the overall ModRef mask even if just Ref had been implied by the argument aliasing results). Hopefully, this correctly fixes both problems. Thanks to Nick Lewycky for reducing the test case for pr20303 (which I've cleaned up a little and added in DSE's test directory). The BasicAA test has also been updated to check for this error. Original commit message: BasicAA contains knowledge of certain intrinsics, such as memcpy and memset, and uses that information to form more-accurate answers to CallSite vs. Loc ModRef queries. Unfortunately, it did not use this information when answering CallSite vs. CallSite queries. Generically, when an intrinsic takes one or more pointers and the intrinsic is marked only to read/write from its arguments, the offset/size is unknown. As a result, the generic code that answers CallSite vs. CallSite (and CallSite vs. Loc) queries in AA uses UnknownSize when forming Locs from an intrinsic's arguments. While BasicAA's CallSite vs. Loc override could use more-accurate size information for some intrinsics, it did not do the same for CallSite vs. CallSite queries. This change refactors the intrinsic-specific logic in BasicAA into a generic AA query function: getArgLocation, which is overridden by BasicAA to supply the intrinsic-specific knowledge, and used by AA's generic implementation. This allows the intrinsic-specific knowledge to be used by both CallSite vs. Loc and CallSite vs. CallSite queries, and simplifies the BasicAA implementation. Currently, only one function, Mac's memset_pattern16, is handled by BasicAA (all the rest are intrinsics). As a side-effect of this refactoring, BasicAA's getModRefBehavior override now also returns OnlyAccessesArgumentPointees for this function (which is an improvement). llvm-svn: 213219

[PM/AA] Rebuild LLVM's alias analysis infrastructure in a way compatible with the new pass manager, and no longer relying on analysis groups. This builds essentially a ground-up new AA infrastructure stack for LLVM. The core ideas are the same that are used throughout the new pass manager: type erased polymorphism and direct composition. The design is as follows: - FunctionAAResults is a type-erasing alias analysis results aggregation interface to walk a single query across a range of results from different alias analyses. Currently this is function-specific as we always assume that aliasing queries are *within* a function. - AAResultBase is a CRTP utility providing stub implementations of various parts of the alias analysis result concept, notably in several cases in terms of other more general parts of the interface. This can be used to implement only a narrow part of the interface rather than the entire interface. This isn't really ideal, this logic should be hoisted into FunctionAAResults as currently it will cause a significant amount of redundant work, but it faithfully models the behavior of the prior infrastructure. - All the alias analysis passes are ported to be wrapper passes for the legacy PM and new-style analysis passes for the new PM with a shared result object. In some cases (most notably CFL), this is an extremely naive approach that we should revisit when we can specialize for the new pass manager. - BasicAA has been restructured to reflect that it is much more fundamentally a function analysis because it uses dominator trees and loop info that need to be constructed for each function. All of the references to getting alias analysis results have been updated to use the new aggregation interface. All the preservation and other pass management code has been updated accordingly. The way the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass works is to detect the available alias analyses when run, and add them to the results object. This means that we should be able to continue to respect when various passes are added to the pipeline, for example adding CFL or adding TBAA passes should just cause their results to be available and to get folded into this. The exception to this rule is BasicAA which really needs to be a function pass due to using dominator trees and loop info. As a consequence, the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass directly depends on BasicAA and always includes it in the aggregation. This has significant implications for preserving analyses. Generally, most passes shouldn't bother preserving FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass because rebuilding the results just updates the set of known AA passes. The exception to this rule are LoopPass instances which need to preserve all the function analyses that the loop pass manager will end up needing. This means preserving both BasicAAWrapperPass and the aggregating FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass. Now, when preserving an alias analysis, you do so by directly preserving that analysis. This is only necessary for non-immutable-pass-provided alias analyses though, and there are only three of interest: BasicAA, GlobalsAA (formerly GlobalsModRef), and SCEVAA. Usually BasicAA is preserved when needed because it (like DominatorTree and LoopInfo) is marked as a CFG-only pass. I've expanded GlobalsAA into the preserved set everywhere we previously were preserving all of AliasAnalysis, and I've added SCEVAA in the intersection of that with where we preserve SCEV itself. One significant challenge to all of this is that the CGSCC passes were actually using the alias analysis implementations by taking advantage of a pretty amazing set of loop holes in the old pass manager's analysis management code which allowed analysis groups to slide through in many cases. Moving away from analysis groups makes this problem much more obvious. To fix it, I've leveraged the flexibility the design of the new PM components provides to just directly construct the relevant alias analyses for the relevant functions in the IPO passes that need them. This is a bit hacky, but should go away with the new pass manager, and is already in many ways cleaner than the prior state. Another significant challenge is that various facilities of the old alias analysis infrastructure just don't fit any more. The most significant of these is the alias analysis 'counter' pass. That pass relied on the ability to snoop on AA queries at different points in the analysis group chain. Instead, I'm planning to build printing functionality directly into the aggregation layer. I've not included that in this patch merely to keep it smaller. Note that all of this needs a nearly complete rewrite of the AA documentation. I'm planning to do that, but I'd like to make sure the new design settles, and to flesh out a bit more of what it looks like in the new pass manager first.

[AA] Hoist the logic to reformulate various AA queries in terms of other parts of the AA interface out of the base class of every single AA result object. Because this logic reformulates the query in terms of some other aspect of the API, it would easily cause O(n^2) query patterns in alias analysis. These could in turn be magnified further based on the number of call arguments, and then further based on the number of AA queries made for a particular call. This ended up causing problems for Rust that were actually noticable enough to get a bug (PR26564) and probably other places as well. When originally re-working the AA infrastructure, the desire was to regularize the pattern of refinement without losing any generality. While I think it was successful, that is clearly proving to be too costly. And the cost is needless: we gain no actual improvement for this generality of making a direct query to tbaa actually be able to re-use some other alias analysis's refinement logic for one of the other APIs, or some such. In short, this is entirely wasted work. To the extent possible, delegation to other API surfaces should be done at the aggregation layer so that we can avoid re-walking the aggregation. In fact, this significantly simplifies the logic as we no longer need to smuggle the aggregation layer into each alias analysis (or the TargetLibraryInfo into each alias analysis just so we can form argument memory locations!). However, we also have some delegation logic inside of BasicAA and some of it even makes sense. When the delegation logic is baking in specific knowledge of aliasing properties of the LLVM IR, as opposed to simply reformulating the query to utilize a different alias analysis interface entry point, it makes a lot of sense to restrict that logic to a different layer such as BasicAA. So one aspect of the delegation that was in every AA base class is that when we don't have operand bundles, we re-use function AA results as a fallback for callsite alias results. This relies on the IR properties of calls and functions w.r.t. aliasing, and so seems a better fit to BasicAA. I've lifted the logic up to that point where it seems to be a natural fit. This still does a bit of redundant work (we query function attributes twice, once via the callsite and once via the function AA query) but it is *exactly* twice here, no more. The end result is that all of the delegation logic is hoisted out of the base class and into either the aggregation layer when it is a pure retargeting to a different API surface, or into BasicAA when it relies on the IR's aliasing properties. This should fix the quadratic query pattern reported in PR26564, although I don't have a stand-alone test case to reproduce it. It also seems general goodness. Now the numerous AAs that don't need target library info don't carry it around and depend on it. I think I can even rip out the general access to the aggregation layer and only expose that in BasicAA as it is the only place where we re-query in that manner. However, this is a non-trivial change to the AA infrastructure so I want to get some additional eyes on this before it lands. Sadly, it can't wait long because we should really cherry pick this into 3.8 if we're going to go this route. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D17329 llvm-svn: 262490

[PM/AA] Rebuild LLVM's alias analysis infrastructure in a way compatible with the new pass manager, and no longer relying on analysis groups. This builds essentially a ground-up new AA infrastructure stack for LLVM. The core ideas are the same that are used throughout the new pass manager: type erased polymorphism and direct composition. The design is as follows: - FunctionAAResults is a type-erasing alias analysis results aggregation interface to walk a single query across a range of results from different alias analyses. Currently this is function-specific as we always assume that aliasing queries are *within* a function. - AAResultBase is a CRTP utility providing stub implementations of various parts of the alias analysis result concept, notably in several cases in terms of other more general parts of the interface. This can be used to implement only a narrow part of the interface rather than the entire interface. This isn't really ideal, this logic should be hoisted into FunctionAAResults as currently it will cause a significant amount of redundant work, but it faithfully models the behavior of the prior infrastructure. - All the alias analysis passes are ported to be wrapper passes for the legacy PM and new-style analysis passes for the new PM with a shared result object. In some cases (most notably CFL), this is an extremely naive approach that we should revisit when we can specialize for the new pass manager. - BasicAA has been restructured to reflect that it is much more fundamentally a function analysis because it uses dominator trees and loop info that need to be constructed for each function. All of the references to getting alias analysis results have been updated to use the new aggregation interface. All the preservation and other pass management code has been updated accordingly. The way the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass works is to detect the available alias analyses when run, and add them to the results object. This means that we should be able to continue to respect when various passes are added to the pipeline, for example adding CFL or adding TBAA passes should just cause their results to be available and to get folded into this. The exception to this rule is BasicAA which really needs to be a function pass due to using dominator trees and loop info. As a consequence, the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass directly depends on BasicAA and always includes it in the aggregation. This has significant implications for preserving analyses. Generally, most passes shouldn't bother preserving FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass because rebuilding the results just updates the set of known AA passes. The exception to this rule are LoopPass instances which need to preserve all the function analyses that the loop pass manager will end up needing. This means preserving both BasicAAWrapperPass and the aggregating FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass. Now, when preserving an alias analysis, you do so by directly preserving that analysis. This is only necessary for non-immutable-pass-provided alias analyses though, and there are only three of interest: BasicAA, GlobalsAA (formerly GlobalsModRef), and SCEVAA. Usually BasicAA is preserved when needed because it (like DominatorTree and LoopInfo) is marked as a CFG-only pass. I've expanded GlobalsAA into the preserved set everywhere we previously were preserving all of AliasAnalysis, and I've added SCEVAA in the intersection of that with where we preserve SCEV itself. One significant challenge to all of this is that the CGSCC passes were actually using the alias analysis implementations by taking advantage of a pretty amazing set of loop holes in the old pass manager's analysis management code which allowed analysis groups to slide through in many cases. Moving away from analysis groups makes this problem much more obvious. To fix it, I've leveraged the flexibility the design of the new PM components provides to just directly construct the relevant alias analyses for the relevant functions in the IPO passes that need them. This is a bit hacky, but should go away with the new pass manager, and is already in many ways cleaner than the prior state. Another significant challenge is that various facilities of the old alias analysis infrastructure just don't fit any more. The most significant of these is the alias analysis 'counter' pass. That pass relied on the ability to snoop on AA queries at different points in the analysis group chain. Instead, I'm planning to build printing functionality directly into the aggregation layer. I've not included that in this patch merely to keep it smaller. Note that all of this needs a nearly complete rewrite of the AA documentation.

[AA] Hoist the logic to reformulate various AA queries in terms of other parts of the AA interface out of the base class of every single AA result object. Because this logic reformulates the query in terms of some other aspect of the API, it would easily cause O(n^2) query patterns in alias analysis. These could in turn be magnified further based on the number of call arguments, and then further based on the number of AA queries made for a particular call. This ended up causing problems for Rust that were actually noticable enough to get a bug (PR26564) and probably other places as well. When originally re-working the AA infrastructure, the desire was to regularize the pattern of refinement without losing any generality. While I think it was successful, that is clearly proving to be too costly. And the cost is needless: we gain no actual improvement for this generality of making a direct query to tbaa actually be able to re-use some other alias analysis's refinement logic for one of the other APIs, or some such. In short, this is entirely wasted work. To the extent possible, delegation to other API surfaces should be done at the aggregation layer so that we can avoid re-walking the aggregation. In fact, this significantly simplifies the logic as we no longer need to smuggle the aggregation layer into each alias analysis (or the TargetLibraryInfo into each alias analysis just so we can form argument memory locations!). However, we also have some delegation logic inside of BasicAA and some of it even makes sense. When the delegation logic is baking in specific knowledge of aliasing properties of the LLVM IR, as opposed to simply reformulating the query to utilize a different alias analysis interface entry point, it makes a lot of sense to restrict that logic to a different layer such as BasicAA. So one aspect of the delegation that was in every AA base class is that when we don't have operand bundles, we re-use function AA results as a fallback for callsite alias results. This relies on the IR properties of calls and functions w.r.t. aliasing, and so seems a better fit to BasicAA. I've lifted the logic up to that point where it seems to be a natural fit. This still does a bit of redundant work (we query function attributes twice, once via the callsite and once via the function AA query) but it is *exactly* twice here, no more. The end result is that all of the delegation logic is hoisted out of the base class and into either the aggregation layer when it is a pure retargeting to a different API surface, or into BasicAA when it relies on the IR's aliasing properties. This should fix the quadratic query pattern reported in PR26564, although I don't have a stand-alone test case to reproduce it. It also seems general goodness. Now the numerous AAs that don't need target library info don't carry it around and depend on it. I think I can even rip out the general access to the aggregation layer and only expose that in BasicAA as it is the only place where we re-query in that manner. However, this is a non-trivial change to the AA infrastructure so I want to get some additional eyes on this before it lands. Sadly, it can't wait long because we should really cherry pick this into 3.8 if we're going to go this route. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D17329 llvm-svn: 262490

Currently this is function-specific as we always assume that aliasing queries are *within* a function. - AAResultBase is a CRTP utility providing stub implementations of various parts of the alias analysis result concept, notably in several cases in terms of other more general parts of the interface. This can be used to implement only a narrow part of the interface rather than the entire interface. This isn't really ideal, this logic should be hoisted into FunctionAAResults as currently it will cause a significant amount of redundant work, but it faithfully models the behavior of the prior infrastructure. - All the alias analysis passes are ported to be wrapper passes for the legacy PM and new-style analysis passes for the new PM with a shared result object. In some cases (most notably CFL), this is an extremely naive approach that we should revisit when we can specialize for the new pass manager. - BasicAA has been restructured to reflect that it is much more fundamentally a function analysis because it uses dominator trees and loop info that need to be constructed for each function. All of the references to getting alias analysis results have been updated to use the new aggregation interface. All the preservation and other pass management code has been updated accordingly. The way the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass works is to detect the available alias analyses when run, and add them to the results object. This means that we should be able to continue to respect when various passes are added to the pipeline, for example adding CFL or adding TBAA passes should just cause their results to be available and to get folded into this. The exception to this rule is BasicAA which really needs to be a function pass due to using dominator trees and loop info. As a consequence, the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass directly depends on BasicAA and always includes it in the aggregation. This has significant implications for preserving analyses. Generally, most passes shouldn't bother preserving FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass because rebuilding the results just updates the set of known AA passes. The exception to this rule are LoopPass instances which need to preserve all the function analyses that the loop pass manager will end up needing. This means preserving both BasicAAWrapperPass and the aggregating FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass. Now, when preserving an alias analysis, you do so by directly preserving that analysis. This is only necessary for non-immutable-pass-provided alias analyses though, and there are only three of interest: BasicAA, GlobalsAA (formerly GlobalsModRef), and SCEVAA. Usually BasicAA is preserved when needed because it (like DominatorTree and LoopInfo) is marked as a CFG-only pass. I've expanded GlobalsAA into the preserved set everywhere we previously were preserving all of AliasAnalysis, and I've added SCEVAA in the intersection of that with where we preserve SCEV itself. One significant challenge to all of this is that the CGSCC passes were actually using the alias analysis implementations by taking advantage of a pretty amazing set of loop holes in the old pass manager's analysis management code which allowed analysis groups to slide through in many cases. Moving away from analysis groups makes this problem much more obvious. To fix it, I've leveraged the flexibility the design of the new PM components provides to just directly construct the relevant alias analyses for the relevant functions in the IPO passes that need them. This is a bit hacky, but should go away with the new pass manager, and is already in many ways cleaner than the prior state. Another significant challenge is that various facilities of the old alias analysis infrastructure just don't fit any more. The most significant of these is the alias analysis 'counter' pass. That pass relied on the ability to snoop on AA queries at different points in the analysis group chain. Instead, I'm planning to build printing functionality directly into the aggregation layer. I've not included that in this patch merely to keep it smaller. Note that all of this needs a nearly complete rewrite of the AA documentation. I'm planning to do that, but I'd like to make sure the new design settles, and to flesh out a bit more of what it looks like in the new pass manager first.

[AA] Hoist the logic to reformulate various AA queries in terms of other parts of the AA interface out of the base class of every single AA result object. Because this logic reformulates the query in terms of some other aspect of the API, it would easily cause O(n^2) query patterns in alias analysis. These could in turn be magnified further based on the number of call arguments, and then further based on the number of AA queries made for a particular call. This ended up causing problems for Rust that were actually noticable enough to get a bug (PR26564) and probably other places as well. When originally re-working the AA infrastructure, the desire was to regularize the pattern of refinement without losing any generality. While I think it was successful, that is clearly proving to be too costly. And the cost is needless: we gain no actual improvement for this generality of making a direct query to tbaa actually be able to re-use some other alias analysis's refinement logic for one of the other APIs, or some such. In short, this is entirely wasted work. To the extent possible, delegation to other API surfaces should be done at the aggregation layer so that we can avoid re-walking the aggregation. In fact, this significantly simplifies the logic as we no longer need to smuggle the aggregation layer into each alias analysis (or the TargetLibraryInfo into each alias analysis just so we can form argument memory locations!). However, we also have some delegation logic inside of BasicAA and some of it even makes sense. When the delegation logic is baking in specific knowledge of aliasing properties of the LLVM IR, as opposed to simply reformulating the query to utilize a different alias analysis interface entry point, it makes a lot of sense to restrict that logic to a different layer such as BasicAA. So one aspect of the delegation that was in every AA base class is that when we don't have operand bundles, we re-use function AA results as a fallback for callsite alias results. This relies on the IR properties of calls and functions w.r.t. aliasing, and so seems a better fit to BasicAA. I've lifted the logic up to that point where it seems to be a natural fit. This still does a bit of redundant work (we query function attributes twice, once via the callsite and once via the function AA query) but it is *exactly* twice here, no more. The end result is that all of the delegation logic is hoisted out of the base class and into either the aggregation layer when it is a pure retargeting to a different API surface, or into BasicAA when it relies on the IR's aliasing properties. This should fix the quadratic query pattern reported in PR26564, although I don't have a stand-alone test case to reproduce it. It also seems general goodness. Now the numerous AAs that don't need target library info don't carry it around and depend on it. I think I can even rip out the general access to the aggregation layer and only expose that in BasicAA as it is the only place where we re-query in that manner. However, this is a non-trivial change to the AA infrastructure so I want to get some additional eyes on this before it lands. Sadly, it can't wait long because we should really cherry pick this into 3.8 if we're going to go this route. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D17329 llvm-svn: 262490

[PM/AA] Rebuild LLVM's alias analysis infrastructure in a way compatible with the new pass manager, and no longer relying on analysis groups. This builds essentially a ground-up new AA infrastructure stack for LLVM. The core ideas are the same that are used throughout the new pass manager: type erased polymorphism and direct composition. The design is as follows: - FunctionAAResults is a type-erasing alias analysis results aggregation interface to walk a single query across a range of results from different alias analyses. Currently this is function-specific as we always assume that aliasing queries are *within* a function. - AAResultBase is a CRTP utility providing stub implementations of various parts of the alias analysis result concept, notably in several cases in terms of other more general parts of the interface. This can be used to implement only a narrow part of the interface rather than the entire interface. This isn't really ideal, this logic should be hoisted into FunctionAAResults as currently it will cause a significant amount of redundant work, but it faithfully models the behavior of the prior infrastructure. - All the alias analysis passes are ported to be wrapper passes for the legacy PM and new-style analysis passes for the new PM with a shared result object. In some cases (most notably CFL), this is an extremely naive approach that we should revisit when we can specialize for the new pass manager. - BasicAA has been restructured to reflect that it is much more fundamentally a function analysis because it uses dominator trees and loop info that need to be constructed for each function. All of the references to getting alias analysis results have been updated to use the new aggregation interface. All the preservation and other pass management code has been updated accordingly. The way the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass works is to detect the available alias analyses when run, and add them to the results object. This means that we should be able to continue to respect when various passes are added to the pipeline, for example adding CFL or adding TBAA passes should just cause their results to be available and to get folded into this. The exception to this rule is BasicAA which really needs to be a function pass due to using dominator trees and loop info. As a consequence, the FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass directly depends on BasicAA and always includes it in the aggregation. This has significant implications for preserving analyses. Generally, most passes shouldn't bother preserving FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass because rebuilding the results just updates the set of known AA passes. The exception to this rule are LoopPass instances which need to preserve all the function analyses that the loop pass manager will end up needing. This means preserving both BasicAAWrapperPass and the aggregating FunctionAAResultsWrapperPass. Now, when preserving an alias analysis, you do so by directly preserving that analysis. This is only necessary for non-immutable-pass-provided alias analyses though, and there are only three of interest: BasicAA, GlobalsAA (formerly GlobalsModRef), and SCEVAA. Usually BasicAA is preserved when needed because it (like DominatorTree and LoopInfo) is marked as a CFG-only pass. I've expanded GlobalsAA into the preserved set everywhere we previously were preserving all of AliasAnalysis, and I've added SCEVAA in the intersection of that with where we preserve SCEV itself. One significant challenge to all of this is that the CGSCC passes were actually using the alias analysis implementations by taking advantage of a pretty amazing set of loop holes in the old pass manager's analysis management code which allowed analysis groups to slide through in many cases. Moving away from analysis groups makes this problem much more obvious. To fix it, I've leveraged the flexibility the design of the new PM components provides to just directly construct the relevant alias analyses for the relevant functions in the IPO passes that need them. This is a bit hacky, but should go away with the new pass manager, and is already in many ways cleaner than the prior state. Another significant challenge is that various facilities of the old alias analysis infrastructure just don't fit any more. The most significant of these is the alias analysis 'counter' pass. That pass relied on the ability to snoop on AA queries at different points in the analysis group chain. Instead, I'm planning to build printing functionality directly into the aggregation layer. I've not included that in this patch merely to keep it smaller. Note that all of this needs a nearly complete rewrite of the AA documentation.

Result run(Function &F, AnalysisManager<Function> *AM) {
[AA] Hoist the logic to reformulate various AA queries in terms of other parts of the AA interface out of the base class of every single AA result object. Because this logic reformulates the query in terms of some other aspect of the API, it would easily cause O(n^2) query patterns in alias analysis. These could in turn be magnified further based on the number of call arguments, and then further based on the number of AA queries made for a particular call. This ended up causing problems for Rust that were actually noticable enough to get a bug (PR26564) and probably other places as well. When originally re-working the AA infrastructure, the desire was to regularize the pattern of refinement without losing any generality. While I think it was successful, that is clearly proving to be too costly. And the cost is needless: we gain no actual improvement for this generality of making a direct query to tbaa actually be able to re-use some other alias analysis's refinement logic for one of the other APIs, or some such. In short, this is entirely wasted work. To the extent possible, delegation to other API surfaces should be done at the aggregation layer so that we can avoid re-walking the aggregation. In fact, this significantly simplifies the logic as we no longer need to smuggle the aggregation layer into each alias analysis (or the TargetLibraryInfo into each alias analysis just so we can form argument memory locations!). However, we also have some delegation logic inside of BasicAA and some of it even makes sense. When the delegation logic is baking in specific knowledge of aliasing properties of the LLVM IR, as opposed to simply reformulating the query to utilize a different alias analysis interface entry point, it makes a lot of sense to restrict that logic to a different layer such as BasicAA. So one aspect of the delegation that was in every AA base class is that when we don't have operand bundles, we re-use function AA results as a fallback for callsite alias results. This relies on the IR properties of calls and functions w.r.t. aliasing, and so seems a better fit to BasicAA. I've lifted the logic up to that point where it seems to be a natural fit. This still does a bit of redundant work (we query function attributes twice, once via the callsite and once via the function AA query) but it is *exactly* twice here, no more. The end result is that all of the delegation logic is hoisted out of the base class and into either the aggregation layer when it is a pure retargeting to a different API surface, or into BasicAA when it relies on the IR's aliasing properties. This should fix the quadratic query pattern reported in PR26564, although I don't have a stand-alone test case to reproduce it. It also seems general goodness. Now the numerous AAs that don't need target library info don't carry it around and depend on it. I think I can even rip out the general access to the aggregation layer and only expose that in BasicAA as it is the only place where we re-query in that manner. However, this is a non-trivial change to the AA infrastructure so I want to get some additional eyes on this before it lands. Sadly, it can't wait long because we should really cherry pick this into 3.8 if we're going to go this route. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D17329 llvm-svn: 262490

[AA] Enhance the new AliasAnalysis infrastructure with an optional "external" AA wrapper pass. This is a generic hook that can be used to thread custom code into the primary AAResultsWrapperPass for the legacy pass manager in order to allow it to merge external AA results into the AA results it is building. It does this by threading in a raw callback and so it is *very* powerful and should serve almost any use case I have come up with for extending the set of alias analyses used. The only thing not well supported here is using a *different order* of alias analyses. That form of extension *is* supportable with the new pass manager, and I can make the callback structure here more elaborate to support it in the legacy pass manager if this is a critical use case that people are already depending on, but the only use cases I have heard of thus far should be reasonably satisfied by this simpler extension mechanism. It is hard to test this using normal facilities (the built-in AAs don't use this for obvious reasons) so I've written a fairly extensive set of custom passes in the alias analysis unit test that should be an excellent test case because it models the out-of-tree users: it adds a totally custom AA to the system. This should also serve as a reasonably good example and guide for out-of-tree users to follow in order to rig up their existing alias analyses. No support in opt for commandline control is provided here however. I'm really unhappy with the kind of contortions that would be required to support that. It would fully re-introduce the analysis group self-recursion kind of patterns. =/ I've heard from out-of-tree users that this will unblock their use cases with extending AAs on top of the new infrastructure and let us retain the new analysis-group-free-world.

[AA] Hoist the logic to reformulate various AA queries in terms of other parts of the AA interface out of the base class of every single AA result object. Because this logic reformulates the query in terms of some other aspect of the API, it would easily cause O(n^2) query patterns in alias analysis. These could in turn be magnified further based on the number of call arguments, and then further based on the number of AA queries made for a particular call. This ended up causing problems for Rust that were actually noticable enough to get a bug (PR26564) and probably other places as well. When originally re-working the AA infrastructure, the desire was to regularize the pattern of refinement without losing any generality. While I think it was successful, that is clearly proving to be too costly. And the cost is needless: we gain no actual improvement for this generality of making a direct query to tbaa actually be able to re-use some other alias analysis's refinement logic for one of the other APIs, or some such. In short, this is entirely wasted work. To the extent possible, delegation to other API surfaces should be done at the aggregation layer so that we can avoid re-walking the aggregation. In fact, this significantly simplifies the logic as we no longer need to smuggle the aggregation layer into each alias analysis (or the TargetLibraryInfo into each alias analysis just so we can form argument memory locations!). However, we also have some delegation logic inside of BasicAA and some of it even makes sense. When the delegation logic is baking in specific knowledge of aliasing properties of the LLVM IR, as opposed to simply reformulating the query to utilize a different alias analysis interface entry point, it makes a lot of sense to restrict that logic to a different layer such as BasicAA. So one aspect of the delegation that was in every AA base class is that when we don't have operand bundles, we re-use function AA results as a fallback for callsite alias results. This relies on the IR properties of calls and functions w.r.t. aliasing, and so seems a better fit to BasicAA. I've lifted the logic up to that point where it seems to be a natural fit. This still does a bit of redundant work (we query function attributes twice, once via the callsite and once via the function AA query) but it is *exactly* twice here, no more. The end result is that all of the delegation logic is hoisted out of the base class and into either the aggregation layer when it is a pure retargeting to a different API surface, or into BasicAA when it relies on the IR's aliasing properties. This should fix the quadratic query pattern reported in PR26564, although I don't have a stand-alone test case to reproduce it. It also seems general goodness. Now the numerous AAs that don't need target library info don't carry it around and depend on it. I think I can even rip out the general access to the aggregation layer and only expose that in BasicAA as it is the only place where we re-query in that manner. However, this is a non-trivial change to the AA infrastructure so I want to get some additional eyes on this before it lands. Sadly, it can't wait long because we should really cherry pick this into 3.8 if we're going to go this route. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D17329 llvm-svn: 262490
