Summary:
This patch teaches PostDominatorTree about infinite loops. It is built on top of D29705 by @dberlin which includes a very detailed motivation for this change.
What's new is that the patch also teaches the incremental updater how to deal with reverse-unreachable regions and how to properly maintain and verify tree roots. Before that, the incremental algorithm sometimes ended up preserving reverse-unreachable regions after updates that wouldn't appear in the tree if it was constructed from scratch on the same CFG.
This patch makes the following assumptions:
- A sequence of updates should produce the same tree as a recalculating it.
- Any sequence of the same updates should lead to the same tree.
- Siblings and roots are unordered.
The last two properties are essential to efficiently perform batch updates in the future.
When it comes to the first one, we can decide later that the consistency between freshly built tree and an updated one doesn't matter match, as there are many correct ways to pick roots in infinite loops, and to relax this assumption. That should enable us to recalculate postdominators less frequently.
This patch is pretty conservative when it comes to incremental updates on reverse-unreachable regions and ends up recalculating the whole tree in many cases. It should be possible to improve the performance in many cases, if we decide that it's important enough.
That being said, my experiments showed that reverse-unreachable are very rare in the IR emitted by clang when bootstrapping clang. Here are the statistics I collected by analyzing IR between passes and after each removePredecessor call:
```
# functions: 52283
# samples: 337609
# reverse unreachable BBs: 216022
# BBs: 247840796
Percent reverse-unreachable: 0.08716159869015269 %
Max(PercRevUnreachable) in a function: 87.58620689655172 %
# > 25 % samples: 471 ( 0.1395104988314885 % samples )
... in 145 ( 0.27733680163724345 % functions )
```
Most of the reverse-unreachable regions come from invalid IR where it wouldn't be possible to construct a PostDomTree anyway.
I would like to commit this patch in the next week in order to be able to complete the work that depends on it before the end of my internship, so please don't wait long to voice your concerns :).

ValueTracking has to strike a balance when attempting to propagate information
backwards from assumes, because if the information is trivially propagated
backwards, it can appear to LLVM that the assumption is known to be true, and
therefore can be removed.
This is sound (because an assumption has no semantic effect except for causing
UB), but prevents the assume from allowing further optimizations.
The isEphemeralValueOf check exists to try and prevent this issue by not
removing the source of an assumption. This tries to make it a little bit more
general to handle the case of side-effectful instructions, such as in
%0 = call i1 @get_val()
%1 = xor i1 %0, true
call void @llvm.assume(i1 %1)

When SCEV calculates product of two SCEVAddRecs from the same loop, it
tries to combine them into one big AddRecExpr. If the sizes of the initial
SCEVs were `S1` and `S2`, the size of their product is `S1 + S2 - 1`, and every
operand of the resulting SCEV is combined from operands of initial SCEV and
has much higher complexity than they have.
As result, if we try to calculate something like:
%x1 = {a,+,b}
%x2 = mul i32 %x1, %x1
%x3 = mul i32 %x2, %x1
%x4 = mul i32 %x3, %x2
...
The size of such SCEVs grows as `2^N`, and the arguments
become more and more complex as we go forth. This leads
to long compilation and huge memory consumption.
This patch sets a limit after which we don't try to combine two
`SCEVAddRecExpr`s into one. By default, max allowed size of the
resulting AddRecExpr is set to 16.

The dependence analysis was returning incorrect information when using the GEPs
to compute dependences. The analysis uses the GEP indices under certain
conditions, but was doing it incorrectly when the base objects of the GEP are
aliases, but pointing to different locations in the same array.
This patch adds another check for the base objects. If the base pointer SCEVs
are not equal, then the dependence analysis should fall back on the path
that uses the whole SCEV for the dependence check. This fixes PR33567.

In rL300494 there was an attempt to deal with excessive compile time on
invocations of getSign/ZeroExtExpr using local caching. This approach only
helps if we request the same SCEV multiple times throughout recursion. But
in the bug PR33431 we see a case where we request different values all the time,
so caching does not help and the size of the cache grows enormously.
In this patch we remove the local cache for this methods and add the recursion
depth limit instead, as we do for arithmetics. This gives us a guarantee that the
invocation sequence is limited and reasonably short.

In LLVM IR the following code:
%r = urem <ty> %t, %b
is equivalent to:
%q = udiv <ty> %t, %b
%s = mul <ty> nuw %q, %b
%r = sub <ty> nuw %t, %q ; (t / b) * b + (t % b) = t
As UDiv, Mul and Sub are already supported by SCEV, URem can be
implemented with minimal effort this way.
Note: While SRem and SDiv are also related this way, SCEV does not
provides SDiv yet.

The cost of an interleaved access was only implemented for AVX512. For other
X86 targets an overly conservative Base cost was returned, resulting in
avoiding vectorization where it is actually profitable to vectorize.
This patch starts to add costs for AVX2 for most prominent cases of
interleaved accesses (stride 3,4 chars, for now).
Note1: Improvements of up to ~4x were observed in some of EEMBC's rgb
workloads; There is also a known issue of 15-30% degradations on some of these
workloads, associated with an interleaved access followed by type
promotion/widening; the resulting shuffle sequence is currently inefficient and
will be improved by a series of patches that extend the X86InterleavedAccess pass
(such as D34601 and more to follow).
Note 2: The costs in this patch do not reflect port pressure penalties which can
be very dominant in the case of interleaved accesses since most of the shuffle
operations are restricted to a single port. Further tuning, that may incorporate
these considerations, will be done on top of the upcoming improved shuffle
sequences (that is, along with the abovementioned work to extend
X86InterleavedAccess pass).

Using various methods, BasicAA tries to determine whether two
GetElementPtr memory locations alias when its base pointers are known
to be equal. When none of its heuristics are applicable, it falls back
to PartialAlias to, according to a comment, protect TBAA making a wrong
decision in case of unions and malloc. PartialAlias is not correct,
because a PartialAlias result implies that some, but not all, bytes
overlap which is not necessarily the case here.
AAResults returns the first analysis result that is not MayAlias.
BasicAA is always the first alias analysis. When it returns
PartialAlias, no other analysis is queried to give a more exact result
(which was the intention of returning PartialAlias instead of MayAlias).
For instance, ScopedAA could return a more accurate result.
The PartialAlias hack was introduced in r131781 (and re-applied in
r132632 after some reverts) to fix llvm.org/PR9971 where TBAA returns a
wrong NoAlias result due to a union. A test case for the malloc case
mentioned in the comment was not provided and I don't think it is
affected since it returns an omnipotent char anyway.
Since r303851 (https://reviews.llvm.org/D33328) clang does emit specific
TBAA for unions anymore (but "omnipotent char" instead). Hence, the
PartialAlias workaround is not required anymore.
This patch passes the test-suite and check-llvm/check-clang of a

This is a fix for PR33292 that shows a case of extremely long compilation
of a single .c file with clang, with most time spent within SCEV.
We have a mechanism of limiting recursion depth for getAddExpr to avoid
long analysis in SCEV. However, there are calls from getAddExpr to getMulExpr
and back that do not propagate the info about depth. As result of this, a chain
getAddExpr -> ... .> getAddExpr -> getMulExpr -> getAddExpr -> ... -> getAddExpr
can be extremely long, with every segment of getAddExpr's being up to max depth long.
This leads either to long compilation or crash by stack overflow. We face this situation while
analyzing big SCEVs in the test of PR33292.
This patch applies the same limit on max expression depth for getAddExpr and getMulExpr.

The zero heuristic assumes that integers are more likely positive than negative,
but this also has the effect of assuming that strcmp return values are more
likely positive than negative. Given that for nonzero strcmp return values it's
the ordering of arguments that determines the sign of the result there's no
reason to assume that's true.
Fix this by inspecting the LHS of the compare and using TargetLibraryInfo to
decide if it's strcmp-like, and if so only assume that nonzero is more likely
than zero i.e. strings are more often different than the same. This causes a
slight code generation change in the spec2006 benchmark 403.gcc, but with no
noticeable performance impact. The intent of this patch is to allow better
optimisation of dhrystone on Cortex-M cpus, but currently it won't as there are

Summary:
LVIPrinter pass was previously relying on the LVICache. We now directly call the
the LVI functions which solves the value if the LVI information is not already
available in the cache. This has 2 benefits over the printing of LVI cache:
1. higher coverage (i.e. catches errors) in LVI code when cache value is
invalidated.
2. relies on the core functions, and not dependent on the LVI cache (which may
be scrapped at some point).
It would still catch any cache invalidation errors, since we first go through
the cache.

The optimistic delinearization implemented in LLVM detects array sizes by
looking for non-linear products between parameters and induction variables.
In OpenCL code, such products often look like:
A[get_global_id(0) * N + get_global_id(1)]
Hence, the IV is hidden in the get_global_id() call and consequently
delinearization would fail as no induction variable is available that helps
us to identify N as array size parameter.
We now use a very simple heuristic to change this. We assume that each parameter
that comes directly from a function call is a hidden induction variable. As
a result, we can delinearize the access above to:
A[get_global_id(0)][get_global_id(1]

The patch rL303730 was reverted because test lsr-expand-quadratic.ll failed on
many non-X86 configs with this patch. The reason of this is that the patch
makes a correctless fix that changes optimizer's behavior for this test.
Without the change, LSR was making an overconfident simplification basing on a
wrong SCEV. Apparently it did not need the IV analysis to do this. With the
change, it chose a different way to simplify (that wasn't so confident), and
this way required the IV analysis. Now, following the right execution path,
LSR tries to make a transformation relying on IV Users analysis. This analysis
is target-dependent due to this code:
// LSR is not APInt clean, do not touch integers bigger than 64-bits.
// Also avoid creating IVs of non-native types. For example, we don't want a
// 64-bit IV in 32-bit code just because the loop has one 64-bit cast.
uint64_t Width = SE->getTypeSizeInBits(I->getType());
if (Width > 64 || !DL.isLegalInteger(Width))
return false;
To make a proper transformation in this test case, the type i32 needs to be
legal for the specified data layout. When the test runs on some non-X86
configuration (e.g. pure ARM 64), opt gets confused by the specified target
and does not use it, rejecting the specified data layout as well. Instead,
it uses some default layout that does not treat i32 as a legal type
(currently the layout that is used when it is not specified does not have
legal types at all). As result, the transformation we expect to happen does
not happen for this test.
This re-enabling patch does not have any source code changes compared to the
original patch rL303730. The only difference is that the failing test is
moved to X86 directory and now has requirement of running on x86 only to comply
with the specified target triple and data layout.

When folding arguments of AddExpr or MulExpr with recurrences, we rely on the fact that
the loop of our base recurrency is the bottom-lost in terms of domination. This assumption
may be broken by an expression which is treated as invariant, and which depends on a complex
Phi for which SCEVUnknown was created. If such Phi is a loop Phi, and this loop is lower than
the chosen AddRecExpr's loop, it is invalid to fold our expression with the recurrence.
Another reason why it might be invalid to fold SCEVUnknown into Phi start value is that unlike
other SCEVs, SCEVUnknown are sometimes position-bound. For example, here:
for (...) { // loop
phi = {A,+,B}
}
X = load ...
Folding phi + X into {A+X,+,B}<loop> actually makes no sense, because X does not exist and cannot
exist while we are iterating in loop (this memory can be even not allocated and not filled by this moment).
It is only valid to make such folding if X is defined before the loop. In this case the recurrence {A+X,+,B}<loop>
may be existant.
This patch prohibits folding of SCEVUnknown (and those who use them) into the start value of an AddRecExpr,
if this instruction is dominated by the loop. Merging the dominating unknown values is still valid. Some tests that
relied on the fact that some SCEVUnknown should be folded into AddRec's are changed so that they no longer
expect such behavior.

This is a re-application of a r303497 that was reverted in r303498.
I thought it had broken a bot when it had not (the breakage did not

This change makes the split between the "exact" backedge taken count
and the "maximum" backedge taken count a bit more obvious. Both of
these are upper bounds on the number of times the loop header
executes (since SCEV does not account for most kinds of abnormal
control flow), but the latter is guaranteed to be a constant.
There were a few places where the max backedge taken count *was* a
non-constant; I've changed those to compute constants instead.
At this point, I'm not sure if the constant max backedge count can be
computed by calling `getUnsignedRange(Exact).getUnsignedMax()` without
losing precision. If it can, we can simplify even further by making
`getMaxBackedgeTakenCount` a thin wrapper around
`getBackedgeTakenCount` and `getUnsignedRange`.
