Summary:
In order to avoid calling pow function we generate repeated fmul when n is a
positive or negative whole number.
For each exponent we pre-compute Addition Chains in order to minimize the no.
of fmuls.
Refer: http://wwwhomes.uni-bielefeld.de/achim/addition_chain.html
We pre-compute addition chains for exponents upto 32 (which results in a max of
7 fmuls).
For eg:
4 = 2+2
5 = 2+3
6 = 3+3 and so on
Hence,
pow(x, 4.0) ==> y = fmul x, x
x = fmul y, y
ret x
For negative exponents, we simply compute the reciprocal of the final result.
Note: This transformation is only enabled under fast-math.

This one is enabled only under -ffast-math. There are cases where the
difference between the value computed and the correct value is huge
even for ffast-math, e.g. as Steven pointed out:
x = -1, y = -4
log(pow(-1), 4) = 0
4*log(-1) = NaN
I checked what GCC does and apparently they do the same optimization
(which result in the dramatic difference). Future work might try to
make this (slightly) less worse.

Summary:
Followed the guidelines in:
http://llvm.org/docs/CodingStandards.html#include-style
However, I noticed that uppercase named headers come before lowercase ones
throughout the codebase. So kept them as is.

These intrinsics currently have an explicit alignment argument which is
required to be a constant integer. It represents the alignment of the
source and dest, and so must be the minimum of those.
This change allows source and dest to each have their own alignments
by using the alignment attribute on their arguments. The alignment
argument itself is removed.
There are a few places in the code for which the code needs to be
checked by an expert as to whether using only src/dest alignment is
safe. For those places, they currently take the minimum of src/dest
alignments which matches the current behaviour.
For example, code which used to read:
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* %dest, i8* %src, i32 500, i32 8, i1 false)
will now read:
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* align 8 %dest, i8* align 8 %src, i32 500, i1 false)
For out of tree owners, I was able to strip alignment from calls using sed by replacing:
(call.*llvm\.memset.*)i32\ [0-9]*\,\ i1 false\)
with:
$1i1 false)
and similarly for memmove and memcpy.
I then added back in alignment to test cases which needed it.
A similar commit will be made to clang which actually has many differences in alignment as now
IRBuilder can generate different source/dest alignments on calls.
In IRBuilder itself, a new argument was added. Instead of calling:
CreateMemCpy(Dst, Src, getInt64(Size), DstAlign, /* isVolatile */ false)
you now call
CreateMemCpy(Dst, Src, getInt64(Size), DstAlign, SrcAlign, /* isVolatile */ false)
There is a temporary class (IntegerAlignment) which takes the source alignment and rejects
implicit conversion from bool. This is to prevent isVolatile here from passing its default
parameter to the source alignment.
Note, changes in future can now be made to codegen. I didn't change anything here, but this
change should enable better memcpy code sequences.

Continuing the work from last week to remove implicit ilist iterator
conversions. First related commit was probably r249767, with some more
motivation in r249925. This edition gets LLVMTransformUtils compiling
without the implicit conversions.
No functional change intended.

When trying to optimize fortified library functions use the right
location to insert new instructions in order to preserve correct
def-use order.
This fixes an issue where a misplaced instruction definition would
happen to be *after* one of its use after a RAUW, forming invalid IR.
This behavior was introduced by r227250.

If we can ignore NaNs, fmin/fmax libcalls can become compare and select
(this is what we turn std::min / std::max into).
This IR should then be optimized in the backend to whatever is best for
any given target. Eg, x86 can use minss/maxss instructions.
This should solve PR24314:

If <src> is non-zero we can safely set the flag to true, and this
results in less code generated for, e.g. ffs(x) + 1 on FreeBSD.

It seems we can still use cmove and save another 'test' instruction, but
that can be tackled separately.

Now that Intrinsic::ID is a typed enum, we can forward declare it and so return it from this method.
This updates all users which were either using an unsigned to store it, or had a now unnecessary cast.

We used to do this before refactorings around r225640.
Some clang users checked for _chk libcall availability using:
__has_builtin(__builtin___memcpy_chk)
When compiling with -fno-builtin, this is always true.
When passing -ffreestanding/-mkernel, which both imply -fno-builtin, we
end up with fortified libcalls, which isn't acceptable in a freestanding
environment which only provides their non-fortified counterparts.
Until we change clang and/or teach external users to check for availability
differently, disregard the "nobuiltin" attribute and TLI::has.
Workaround for PR23093.

strchr("123!", C) != nullptr is a common pattern to check if C is one
of 1, 2, 3 or !. If the largest element of the string is smaller than
the target's register size we can easily create a bitfield and just
do a simple test for set membership.
int foo(char C) { return strchr("123!", C) != nullptr; } now becomes
cmpl $64, %edi ## range check
sbbb %al, %al
movabsq $0xE000200000001, %rcx
btq %rdi, %rcx ## bit test
sbbb %cl, %cl
andb %al, %cl ## and the two conditions
andb $1, %cl
movzbl %cl, %eax ## returning an int
ret
(imho the backend should expand this into a series of branches, but
that's a different story)
The code is currently limited to bit fields that fit in a register, so
usually 64 or 32 bits. Sadly, this misses anything using alpha chars
or {}. This could be fixed by just emitting a i128 bit field, but that
can generate really ugly code so we have to find a better way. To some
degree this is also recreating switch lowering logic, but we can't
simply emit a switch instruction and thus change the CFG within
instcombine.

Summary:
Now that the DataLayout is a mandatory part of the module, let's start
cleaning the codebase. This patch is a first attempt at doing that.
This patch is not exactly NFC as for instance some places were passing
a nullptr instead of the DataLayout, possibly just because there was a
default value on the DataLayout argument to many functions in the API.
Even though it is not purely NFC, there is no change in the
validation.
I turned as many pointer to DataLayout to references, this helped
figuring out all the places where a nullptr could come up.
I had initially a local version of this patch broken into over 30
independant, commits but some later commit were cleaning the API and
touching part of the code modified in the previous commits, so it
seemed cleaner without the intermediate state.

This was introduced in a faulty refactoring (r225640, mea culpa):
the tests weren't testing the return values, so, for both
__strcpy_chk and __stpcpy_chk, we would return the end of the
buffer (matching stpcpy) instead of the beginning (for strcpy).
The root cause was the prefix "__" being ignored when comparing,
which made us always pick LibFunc::stpcpy_chk.
Pass the LibFunc::Func directly to avoid this kind of error.
Also, make the testcases as explicit as possible to prevent this.
The now-useful testcases expose another, entangled, stpcpy problem,
with the further simplification. This was introduced in a
refactoring (r225640) to match the original behavior.
However, this leads to problems when successive simplifications
generate several similar instructions, none of which are removed
by the custom replaceAllUsesWith.
For instance, InstCombine (the main user) doesn't erase the
instruction in its custom RAUW. When trying to simplify say
__stpcpy_chk:
- first, an stpcpy is created (fortified simplifier),
- second, a memcpy is created (normal simplifier), but the
stpcpy call isn't removed.
- third, InstCombine later revisits the instructions,
and simplifies the first stpcpy to a memcpy. We now have
two memcpys.

a more direct approach: a type-erased glorified function pointer. Now we
can pass a function pointer into this for the easy case and we can even
pass a lambda into it in the interesting case in the instruction
combiner.
I'll be using this shortly to simplify the interfaces to InstCombiner,
but this helps pave the way and seems like a better design for the
libcall simplifier utility.

While the term "Target" is in the name, it doesn't really have to do
with the LLVM Target library -- this isn't an abstraction which LLVM
targets generally need to implement or extend. It has much more to do
with modeling the various runtime libraries on different OSes and with
different runtime environments. The "target" in this sense is the more
general sense of a target of cross compilation.
This is in preparation for porting this analysis to the new pass
manager.
No functionality changed, and updates inbound for Clang and Polly.
