Gather and Scatter are new introduced intrinsics, comming after recently implemented masked load and store.
This is the first patch for Gather and Scatter intrinsics. It includes only the syntax, parsing and verification.
Gather and Scatter intrinsics allow to perform multiple memory accesses (read/write) in one vector instruction.
The intrinsics are not target specific and will have the following syntax:
Gather:
declare <16 x i32> @llvm.masked.gather.v16i32(<16 x i32*> <vector of ptrs>, i32 <alignment>, <16 x i1> <mask>, <16 x i32> <passthru>)
declare <8 x float> @llvm.masked.gather.v8f32(<8 x float*><vector of ptrs>, i32 <alignment>, <8 x i1> <mask>, <8 x float><passthru>)
Scatter:
declare void @llvm.masked.scatter.v8i32(<8 x i32><vector value to be stored> , <8 x i32*><vector of ptrs> , i32 <alignment>, <8 x i1> <mask>)
declare void @llvm.masked.scatter.v16i32(<16 x i32> <vector value to be stored> , <16 x i32*> <vector of ptrs>, i32 <alignment>, <16 x i1><mask> )
Vector of ptrs - a set of source/destination addresses, to load/store the value.
Mask - switches on/off vector lanes to prevent memory access for switched-off lanes
vector of ptrs, value and mask should have the same vector width.
These are code examples where gather / scatter should be used and will allow function vectorization
;void foo1(int * restrict A, int * restrict B, int * restrict C) {
; for (int i=0; i<SIZE; i++) {
; A[i] = B[C[i]];
; }
;}
;void foo3(int * restrict A, int * restrict B) {
; for (int i=0; i<SIZE; i++) {
; A[B[i]] = i+5;
; }
;}
Tests will come in the following patches, with CodeGen and Vectorizer.

V1 cover letter:
---------------------
recently linux gained "universal in-kernel virtual machine" which is called
eBPF or extended BPF. The name comes from "Berkeley Packet Filter", since
new instruction set is based on it.
This patch adds a new backend that emits extended BPF instruction set.
The concept and development are covered by the following articles:
http://lwn.net/Articles/599755/http://lwn.net/Articles/575531/http://lwn.net/Articles/603983/http://lwn.net/Articles/606089/http://lwn.net/Articles/612878/
One of use cases: dtrace/systemtap alternative.
bpf syscall manpage:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=b4fc1a460f3017e958e6a8ea560ea0afd91bf6fe
instruction set description and differences vs classic BPF:
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/networking/filter.txt
Short summary of instruction set:
- 64-bit registers
R0 - return value from in-kernel function, and exit value for BPF program
R1 - R5 - arguments from BPF program to in-kernel function
R6 - R9 - callee saved registers that in-kernel function will preserve
R10 - read-only frame pointer to access stack
- two-operand instructions like +, -, *, mov, load/store
- implicit prologue/epilogue (invisible stack pointer)
- no floating point, no simd
Short history of extended BPF in kernel:
interpreter in 3.15, x64 JIT in 3.16, arm64 JIT, verifier, bpf syscall in 3.18, more to come in the future.
It's a very small and simple backend.
There is no support for global variables, arbitrary function calls, floating point, varargs,
exceptions, indirect jumps, arbitrary pointer arithmetic, alloca, etc.
From C front-end point of view it's very restricted. It's done on purpose, since kernel
rejects all programs that it cannot prove safe. It rejects programs with loops
and with memory accesses via arbitrary pointers. When kernel accepts the program it is
guaranteed that program will terminate and will not crash the kernel.
This patch implements all 'must have' bits. There are several things on TODO list,
so this is not the end of development.
Most of the code is a boiler plate code, copy-pasted from other backends.
Only odd things are lack or < and <= instructions, specialized load_byte intrinsics
and 'compare and goto' as single instruction.
Current instruction set is fixed, but more instructions can be added in the future.

This name is less descriptive, but it sort of puts things in the
'llvm.frame...' namespace, relating it to frameallocate and
frameaddress. It also avoids using "allocate" and "allocation" together.
llvm-svn: 225752
These intrinsics allow multiple functions to share a single stack
allocation from one function's call frame. The function with the
allocation may only perform one allocation, and it must be in the entry
block.
Functions accessing the allocation call llvm.recoverframeallocation with
the function whose frame they are accessing and a frame pointer from an
active call frame of that function.
These intrinsics are very difficult to inline correctly, so the
intention is that they be introduced rarely, or at least very late
during EH preparation.

Introduce the ``llvm.instrprof_increment`` intrinsic and the
``-instrprof`` pass. These provide the infrastructure for writing
counters for profiling, as in clang's ``-fprofile-instr-generate``.
The implementation of the instrprof pass is ported directly out of the
CodeGenPGO classes in clang, and with the followup in clang that rips
that code out to use these new intrinsics this ends up being NFC.
Doing the instrumentation this way opens some doors in terms of
improving the counter performance. For example, this will make it
simple to experiment with alternate lowering strategies, and allows us
to try handling profiling specially in some optimizations if we want
to.
Finally, this drastically simplifies the frontend and puts all of the
lowering logic in one place.

I'm recommiting the codegen part of the patch.
The vectorizer part will be send to review again.
Masked Vector Load and Store Intrinsics.
Introduced new target-independent intrinsics in order to support masked vector loads and stores. The loop vectorizer optimizes loops containing conditional memory accesses by generating these intrinsics for existing targets AVX2 and AVX-512. The vectorizer asks the target about availability of masked vector loads and stores.
Added SDNodes for masked operations and lowering patterns for X86 code generator.
Examples:
<16 x i32> @llvm.masked.load.v16i32(i8* %addr, <16 x i32> %passthru, i32 4 /* align */, <16 x i1> %mask)
declare void @llvm.masked.store.v8f64(i8* %addr, <8 x double> %value, i32 4, <8 x i1> %mask)
Scalarizer for other targets (not AVX2/AVX-512) will be done in a separate patch.

The statepoint intrinsics are intended to enable precise root tracking through the compiler as to support garbage collectors of all types. The addition of the statepoint intrinsics to LLVM should have no impact on the compilation of any program which does not contain them. There are no side tables created, no extra metadata, and no inhibited optimizations.
A statepoint works by transforming a call site (or safepoint poll site) into an explicit relocation operation. It is the frontend's responsibility (or eventually the safepoint insertion pass we've developed, but that's not part of this patch series) to ensure that any live pointer to a GC object is correctly added to the statepoint and explicitly relocated. The relocated value is just a normal SSA value (as seen by the optimizer), so merges of relocated and unrelocated values are just normal phis. The explicit relocation operation, the fact the statepoint is assumed to clobber all memory, and the optimizers standard semantics ensure that the relocations flow through IR optimizations correctly.
This is the first patch in a small series. This patch contains only the IR parts; the documentation and backend support will be following separately. The entire series can be seen as one combined whole in http://reviews.llvm.org/D5683.

These are named following the IEEE-754 names for these
functions, rather than the libm fmin / fmax to avoid
possible ambiguities. Some languages may implement something
resembling fmin / fmax which return NaN if either operand is
to propagate errors. These implement the IEEE-754 semantics
of returning the other operand if either is a NaN representing
missing data.

argument of the llvm.dbg.declare/llvm.dbg.value intrinsics.
Previously, DIVariable was a variable-length field that has an optional
reference to a Metadata array consisting of a variable number of
complex address expressions. In the case of OpPiece expressions this is
wasting a lot of storage in IR, because when an aggregate type is, e.g.,
SROA'd into all of its n individual members, the IR will contain n copies
of the DIVariable, all alike, only differing in the complex address
reference at the end.
By making the complex address into an extra argument of the
dbg.value/dbg.declare intrinsics, all of the pieces can reference the
same variable and the complex address expressions can be uniqued across
the CU, too.
Down the road, this will allow us to move other flags, such as
"indirection" out of the DIVariable, too.
The new intrinsics look like this:
declare void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata %storage, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
declare void @llvm.dbg.value(metadata %storage, i64 %offset, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
This patch adds a new LLVM-local tag to DIExpressions, so we can detect
and pretty-print DIExpression metadata nodes.
What this patch doesn't do:
This patch does not touch the "Indirect" field in DIVariable; but moving
that into the expression would be a natural next step.

This is the first commit in a series that add an @llvm.assume intrinsic which
can be used to provide the optimizer with a condition it may assume to be true
(when the control flow would hit the intrinsic call). Some basic properties are added here:
- llvm.invariant(true) is dead.
- llvm.invariant(false) is unreachable (this directly corresponds to the
documented behavior of MSVC's __assume(0)), so is llvm.invariant(undef).
The intrinsic is tagged as writing arbitrarily, in order to maintain control
dependencies. BasicAA has been updated, however, to return NoModRef for any
particular location-based query so that we don't unnecessarily block code
motion.
llvm-svn: 213973
This makes the two intrinsics @llvm.convert.from.f16 and
@llvm.convert.to.f16 accept types other than simple "float". This is
only strictly needed for the truncate operation, since otherwise
double rounding occurs and there's no way to represent the strict IEEE
conversion. However, for symmetry we allow larger types in the extend
too.
During legalization, we can expand an "fp16_to_double" operation into
two extends for convenience, but abort when the truncate isn't legal. A new
libcall is probably needed here.
Even after this commit, various target tweaks are needed to actually use the
extended intrinsics. I've put these into separate commits for clarity, so there
are no actual tests of f64 conversion here.

Add MSBuiltin which is similar in vein to GCCBuiltin. This allows for adding
intrinsics for Microsoft compatibility to individual instructions. This is
needed to permit the creation of ARM specific MSVC extensions.
This is not currently in use, and requires an associated change in clang to
enable use of the intrinsics defined by this new class. This merely sets the
LLVM portion of the infrastructure in place to permit the use of this
functionality. A separate set of changes will enable the new intrinsics.

This commit starts with a "git mv ARM64 AArch64" and continues out
from there, renaming the C++ classes, intrinsics, and other
target-local objects for consistency.
"ARM64" test directories are also moved, and tests that began their
life in ARM64 use an arm64 triple, those from AArch64 use an aarch64
triple. Both should be equivalent though.
This finishes the AArch64 merge, and everyone should feel free to
continue committing as normal now.
llvm-svn: 209577
I'm doing this in two phases for a better "git blame" record. This
commit removes the previous AArch64 backend and redirects all
functionality to ARM64. It also deduplicates test-lines and removes
orphaned AArch64 tests.
The next step will be "git mv ARM64 AArch64" and rewire most of the
tests.
Hopefully LLVM is still functional, though it would be even better if
no-one ever had to care because the rename happens straight
afterwards.

This patch implements the infrastructure to use named register constructs in
programs that need access to specific registers (bare metal, kernels, etc).
So far, only the stack pointer is supported as a technology preview, but as it
is, the intrinsic can already support all non-allocatable registers from any
architecture.
llvm-svn: 208104
This adds a second implementation of the AArch64 architecture to LLVM,
accessible in parallel via the "arm64" triple. The plan over the
coming weeks & months is to merge the two into a single backend,
during which time thorough code review should naturally occur.
Everything will be easier with the target in-tree though, hence this
commit.

This is like the LLVMMatchType, except the verifier checks that the
second argument is a vector with the same base type and half the
number of elements.
This will be used by the ARM64 backend.
llvm-svn: 205079
These are used in the ARM backends to aid type-checking on patterns involving
intrinsics. By making sure one argument is an extended/truncated version of
another.
However, there's no reason to limit them to just vectors types. For example
AArch64 has the instruction "uqshrn sD, dN, #imm" which would naturally use an
intrinsic taking an i64 and returning an i32.

Implementing the LLVM part of the call to __builtin___clear_cache
which translates into an intrinsic @llvm.clear_cache and is lowered
by each target, either to a call to __clear_cache or nothing at all
incase the caches are unified.
Updating LangRef and adding some tests for the implemented architectures.
Other archs will have to implement the method in case this builtin
has to be compiled for it, since the default behaviour is to bail
unimplemented.
A Clang patch is required for the builtin to be lowered into the
llvm intrinsic. This will be done next.

The "noduplicate" function attribute exists to prevent certain optimizations
from duplicating calls to the function. This is important on platforms where
certain function call duplications are unsafe (for example execution barriers
for CUDA and OpenCL).
This patch makes it possible to specify intrinsics as "noduplicate" and
translates that to the appropriate function attribute.

are operations that do not access memory but may be sensitive

and was getting on the way of some optimizations, in particular
SLP vectorization.

should not be marked nounwind.
Marking them nounwind caused crashes in the WebKit FTL JIT, because if we enable
sufficient optimizations, LLVM starts eliding compact_unwind sections (or any unwind
data for that matter), making deoptimization via stackmaps impossible.
This changes the stackmap intrinsic to be may-throw, adds a test for exactly the
sympton that WebKit saw, and fixes TableGen to handle un-attributed intrinsics.

This adds a llvm.copysign intrinsic; We already have Libfunc recognition for
copysign (which is turned into the FCOPYSIGN SDAG node). In order to
autovectorize calls to copysign in the loop vectorizer, we need a corresponding
intrinsic as well.
In addition to the expected changes to the language reference, the loop
vectorizer, BasicTTI, and the SDAG builder (the intrinsic is transformed into
an FCOPYSIGN node, just like the function call), this also adds FCOPYSIGN to a
few lists in LegalizeVector{Ops,Types} so that vector copysigns can be
expanded.
In TargetLoweringBase::initActions, I've made the default action for FCOPYSIGN
be Expand for vector types. This seems correct for all in-tree targets, and I
think is the right thing to do because, previously, there was no way to generate
vector-values FCOPYSIGN nodes (and most targets don't specify an action for
vector-typed FCOPYSIGN).
llvm-svn: 188728
All libm floating-point rounding functions, except for round(), had their own
ISD nodes. Recent PowerPC cores have an instruction for round(), and so here I'm
adding ISD::FROUND so that round() can be custom lowered as well.
For the most part, this is straightforward. I've added an intrinsic
and a matching ISD node just like those for nearbyint() and friends. The
SelectionDAG pattern I've named frnd (because ISD::FP_ROUND has already claimed
fround).
This will be used by the PowerPC backend in a follow-up commit.
