7e649e3211 [EarlyCSE] Change C API pass interface for EarlyCSE w/ MemorySSA
Previous change broke the C API for creating an EarlyCSE pass w/
MemorySSA by adding a bool parameter to control whether MemorySSA was
used or not.  This broke the OCaml bindings.  Instead, change the old C
API entry point back and add a new one to request an EarlyCSE pass with
MemorySSA.

4a45626e2f [EarlyCSE] Optionally use MemorySSA. NFC.
Summary:
Use MemorySSA, if requested, to do less conservative memory dependency
checking.

This change doesn't enable the MemorySSA enhanced EarlyCSE in the
default pipelines, so should be NFC.

40da722c35 [LoopDist] Port to new PM
Summary:
The direct motivation for the port is to ensure that the OptRemarkEmitter
tests work with the new PM.

This remains a function pass because we not only create multiple loops
but could also version the original loop.

In the test I need to invoke opt
with -passes='require<aa>,loop-distribute'.  LoopDistribute does not
directly depend on AA however LAA does.  LAA uses getCachedResult so
I *think* we need manually pull in 'aa'.

479a57ca4a New pass: guard widening
Summary:
Implement guard widening in LLVM. Description from GuardWidening.cpp:

The semantics of the `@llvm.experimental.guard` intrinsic lets LLVM
transform it so that it fails more often that it did before the
transform.  This optimization is called "widening" and can be used hoist
and common runtime checks in situations like these:

```
%cmp0 = 7 u< Length
call @llvm.experimental.guard(i1 %cmp0) [ "deopt"(...) ]
call @unknown_side_effects()
%cmp1 = 9 u< Length
call @llvm.experimental.guard(i1 %cmp1) [ "deopt"(...) ]
...
```

to

```
%cmp0 = 9 u< Length
call @llvm.experimental.guard(i1 %cmp0) [ "deopt"(...) ]
call @unknown_side_effects()
...
```

If `%cmp0` is false, `@llvm.experimental.guard` will "deoptimize" back
to a generic implementation of the same function, which will have the
correct semantics from that point onward.  It is always _legal_ to
deoptimize (so replacing `%cmp0` with false is "correct"), though it may
not always be profitable to do so.

NB! This pass is a work in progress.  It hasn't been tuned to be
"production ready" yet.  It is known to have quadriatic running time and
will not scale to large numbers of guards

d0ae36e8de [PM] Port GVN to the new pass manager, wire it up, and teach a couple of
tests to run GVN in both modes.

This is mostly the boring refactoring just like SROA and other complex
transformation passes. There is some trickiness in that GVN's
ValueNumber class requires hand holding to get to compile cleanly. I'm
open to suggestions about a better pattern there, but I tried several
before settling on this. I was trying to balance my desire to sink as
much implementation detail into the source file as possible without
introducing overly many layers of abstraction.

Much like with SROA, the design of this system is made somewhat more
cumbersome by the need to support both pass managers without duplicating
the significant state and logic of the pass. The same compromise is
struck here.

I've also left a FIXME in a doxygen comment as the GVN pass seems to
have pretty woeful documentation within it. I'd like to submit this with
the FIXME and let those more deeply familiar backfill the information
here now that we have a nice place in an interface to put that kind of
documentaiton.

d6dcbf971a New Loop Versioning LICM Pass
Summary:
When alias analysis is uncertain about the aliasing between any two accesses,
it will return MayAlias. This uncertainty from alias analysis restricts LICM
from proceeding further. In cases where alias analysis is uncertain we might
use loop versioning as an alternative.

Loop Versioning will create a version of the loop with aggressive aliasing
assumptions in addition to the original with conservative (default) aliasing
assumptions. The version of the loop making aggressive aliasing assumptions
will have all the memory accesses marked as no-alias. These two versions of
loop will be preceded by a memory runtime check. This runtime check consists
of bound checks for all unique memory accessed in loop, and it ensures the
lack of memory aliasing. The result of the runtime check determines which of
the loop versions is executed: If the runtime check detects any memory
aliasing, then the original loop is executed. Otherwise, the version with
aggressive aliasing assumptions is used.

The pass is off by default and can be enabled with command line option 
-enable-loop-versioning-licm.

21662c36f7 [LoopVersioning] Expose loop versioning as a pass too
Summary:
LoopVersioning is a transform utility that transform passes can use to
run-time disambiguate may-aliasing accesses. I'd like to also expose as
pass to allow it to be unit-tested.

I am planning to add support for non-aliasing annotation in
LoopVersioning and I'd like to be able to write tests directly using
this pass.

(After that feature is done, the pass could also be used to look for
optimization opportunities that are hidden behind incomplete alias
information at compile time.)

The pass drives LoopVersioning in its default way which is to fully
disambiguate may-aliasing accesses no matter how many checks are
required.

a2385db150 Add LoopSimplifyCFG pass
Loop transformations can sometimes fail because the loop, while in
valid rotated LCSSA form, is not in a canonical CFG form. This is
an extremely simple pass that just merges obviously redundant
blocks, which can be used to fix some known failure cases. In the
future, it may be enhanced with more cases (and have code shared with
SimplifyCFG).

This allows us to run LoopSimplifyCFG -> LoopRotate -> LoopUnroll,
so that SimplifyCFG cleans up the loop before Rotate tries to run.

Not currently used in the pass manager, since this pass doesn't do
anything unless you can hook it up in an LPM with other loop passes.
It'll be added once Chandler cleans up things to allow this.

Tested in a custom pipeline out of tree to confirm it works in
practice (in addition to the included trivial test).

933537bc6b LLE 6/6: Add LoopLoadElimination pass
Summary:
The goal of this pass is to perform store-to-load forwarding across the
backedge of a loop.  E.g.:

  for (i)
     A[i + 1] = A[i] + B[i]

  =>

  T = A[0]
  for (i)
     T = T + B[i]
     A[i + 1] = T

The pass relies on loop dependence analysis via LoopAccessAnalisys to
find opportunities of loop-carried dependences with a distance of one
between a store and a load.  Since it's using LoopAccessAnalysis, it was
easy to also add support for versioning away may-aliasing intervening
stores that would otherwise prevent this transformation.

This optimization is also performed by Load-PRE in GVN without the
option of multi-versioning.  As was discussed with Daniel Berlin in
http://reviews.llvm.org/D9548, this is inferior to a more loop-aware
solution applied here.  Hopefully, we will be able to remove some
complexity from GVN/MemorySSA as a consequence.

In the long run, we may want to extend this pass (or create a new one if
there is little overlap) to also eliminate loop-indepedent redundant
loads and store that *require* versioning due to may-aliasing
intervening stores/loads.  I have some motivating cases for store
elimination. My plan right now is to wait for MemorySSA to come online
first rather than using memdep for this.

The main motiviation for this pass is the 456.hmmer loop in SPECint2006
where after distributing the original loop and vectorizing the top part,
we are left with the critical path exposed in the bottom loop.  Being
able to promote the memory dependence into a register depedence (even
though the HW does perform store-to-load fowarding as well) results in a
major gain (~20%).  This gain also transfers over to x86: it's
around 8-10%.

Right now the pass is off by default and can be enabled
with -enable-loop-load-elim.  On the LNT testsuite, there are two
performance changes (negative number -> improvement):

  1. -28% in Polybench/linear-algebra/solvers/dynprog: the length of the
     critical paths is reduced
  2. +2% in Polybench/stencils/adi: Unfortunately, I couldn't reproduce this
     outside of LNT

The pass is scheduled after the loop vectorizer (which is after loop
distribution).  The rational is to try to reuse LAA state, rather than
recomputing it.  The order between LV and LLE is not critical because
normally LV does not touch scalar st->ld forwarding cases where
vectorizing would inhibit the CPU's st->ld forwarding to kick in.

LoopLoadElimination requires LAA to provide the full set of dependences
(including forward dependences).  LAA is known to omit loop-independent
dependences in certain situations.  The big comment before
removeDependencesFromMultipleStores explains why this should not occur
for the cases that we're interested in.

fac09e6d0b [PM] Port SROA to the new pass manager.
In some ways this is a very boring port to the new pass manager as there
are no interesting analyses or dependencies or other oddities.

However, this does introduce the first good example of a transformation
pass with non-trivial state porting to the new pass manager. I've tried
to carve out patterns here to replicate elsewhere, and would appreciate
comments on whether folks like these patterns:

- A common need in the new pass manager is to effectively lift the pass
  class and some of its state into a public header file. Prior to this,
  LLVM used anonymous namespaces to provide "module private" types and
  utilities, but that doesn't scale to cases where a public header file
  is needed and the new pass manager will exacerbate that. The pattern
  I've adopted here is to use the namespace-cased-name of the core pass
  (what would be a module if we had them) as a module-private namespace.
  Then utility and other code can be declared and defined in this
  namespace. At some point in the future, we could even have
  (conditionally compiled) code that used modules features when
  available to do the same basic thing.

- I've split the actual pass run method in two in order to expose
  a private method usable by the old pass manager to wrap the new class
  with a minimum of duplicated code. I actually looked at a bunch of
  ways to automate or generate these, but they are all quite terrible
  IMO. The fundamental need is to extract the set of analyses which need
  to cross this interface boundary, and that will end up being too
  unpredictable to effectively encapsulate IMO. This is also
  a relatively small amount of boiler plate that will live a relatively
  short time, so I'm not too worried about the fact that it is boiler
  plate.

The rest of the patch is totally boring but results in a massive diff
(sorry). It just moves code around and removes or adds qualifiers to
reflect the new name and nesting structure.

d7003090ac [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.

776683223a Convert SampleProfile pass into a Module pass.
Eventually, we will need sample profiles to be incorporated into the
inliner's cost models.  To do this, we need the sample profile pass to
be a module pass.

This patch makes no functional changes beyond the mechanical adjustments
needed to run SampleProfile as a module pass.
