In theory this could be extended to other instructions, eg. division by zero, but it's likely that it will "miscompile" some code because people depend on div by zero not trapping. NULL pointer dereference usually leads to a crash so we should be on the safe side.
This shrinks the size of a Release clang by 16k on x86_64.

This commit includes a mention of the landingpad instruction, but it's not
changing the behavior around it. I think the current behavior is correct,
though. Bill, can you double-check that?

of the instruction.
Note that this change affects the existing non-atomic load and store
instructions; the parser now accepts both forms, and the change is noted
in the release notes.

In cases such as the attached test, where the case value for a switch
destination is used in a phi node that follows the destination, it
might be better to replace that value with the condition value of the
switch, so that more blocks can be folded away with
TryToSimplifyUncondBranchFromEmptyBlock because there are less
conflicts in the phi node.
llvm-svn: 133344
then we don't want to set the destination in the indirect branch to the
destination. This is because the indirect branch needs its destinations to have
had their block addresses taken. This isn't so of the new critical edge that's
split during this process. If it turns out that the destination block has only
one predecessor, and that being a BB with an indirect branch, then it won't be
marked as 'used' and may be removed.

I also changed -simplifycfg, -jump-threading and -codegenprepare to use this to produce slightly better code without any extra cleanup passes (AFAICT this was the only place in -simplifycfg where now-dead conditions of replaced terminators weren't being cleaned up). The only other user of this function is -sccp, but I didn't read that thoroughly enough to figure out whether it might be holding pointers to instructions that could be deleted by this.

reachable uses, but there still might be uses in dead blocks. Use the
standard solution of replacing all the uses with undef. This is
a rare case because it's very sensitive to phase ordering in SimplifyCFG.

Yes, there are other types than i8* and GEPs on them can produce an add+multiply.
We don't consider that cheap enough to be speculatively executed.

This makes the job of the later optzn passes easier, allowing the vast amount of
icmp transforms to chew on it.
We transform 840 switches in gcc.c, leading to a 16k byte shrink of the resulting
binary on i386-linux.
The testcase from README.txt now compiles into
decl %edi
cmpl $3, %edi
sbbl %eax, %eax
andl $1, %eax
ret

which is simpler than finding a place to insert in BB.
- Don't perform the 'if condition hoisting' xform on certain
i1 PHIs, as it interferes with switch formation.
This re-fixes "example 7", without breaking the world hopefully.

first, it can kick in on blocks whose conditions have been
folded to a constant, even though one of the edges will be
trivially folded.
second, it doesn't clean up the "if diamond" that it just
eliminated away. This is a problem because other simplifycfg
xforms kick in depending on the order of block visitation,
causing pointless work.

when simplifying, allowing them to be eagerly turned into switches. This
is the last step required to get "Example 7" from this blog post:

On X86, we now generate this machine code, which (to my eye) seems better
than the ICC generated code:
_crud: ## @crud
## BB#0: ## %entry
cmpb $33, %dil
jb LBB0_4
## BB#1: ## %switch.early.test
addb $-34, %dil
cmpb $58, %dil
ja LBB0_3
## BB#2: ## %switch.early.test
movzbl %dil, %eax
movabsq $288230376537592865, %rcx ## imm = 0x400000017001421
btq %rax, %rcx
jb LBB0_4
LBB0_3: ## %lor.rhs
xorl %eax, %eax
ret
LBB0_4: ## %lor.end
movl $1, %eax
ret
