ARM Neon has native support for half-sized vector registers (64 bits). This
is beneficial for example for 2D and 3D graphics. This patch adds the option
to lower MinVecRegSize from 128 via a TTI in the SLP Vectorizer.
*** Performance Analysis
This change was motivated by some internal benchmarks but it is also
beneficial on SPEC and the LLVM testsuite.
The results are with -O3 and PGO. A negative percentage is an improvement.
The testsuite was run with a sample size of 4.
** SPEC
* CFP2006/482.sphinx3 -3.34%
A pretty hot loop is SLP vectorized resulting in nice instruction reduction.
This used to be a +22% regression before rL299482.
* CFP2000/177.mesa -3.34%
* CINT2000/256.bzip2 +6.97%
My current plan is to extend the fix in rL299482 to i16 which brings the
regression down to +2.5%. There are also other problems with the codegen in
this loop so there is further room for improvement.
** LLVM testsuite
* SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc/ReedSolomon -10.75%
There are multiple small SLP vectorizations outside the hot code. It's a bit
surprising that it adds up to 10%. Some of this may be code-layout noise.
* MultiSource/Benchmarks/VersaBench/beamformer/beamformer -8.40%
The opt-viewer screenshot can be seen at F3218284. We start at a colder store
but the tree leads us into the hottest loop.
* MultiSource/Applications/lambda-0.1.3/lambda -2.68%
* MultiSource/Benchmarks/Bullet/bullet -2.18%
This is using 3D vectors.
* SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout-C++/Shootout-C++-lists +6.67%
Noise, binary is unchanged.
* MultiSource/Benchmarks/Ptrdist/anagram/anagram +4.90%
There is an additional SLP in the cold code. The test runs for ~1sec and
prints out over 2000 lines. This is most likely noise.
* MultiSource/Applications/aha/aha +1.63%
* MultiSource/Applications/JM/lencod/lencod +1.41%
* SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc/richards_benchmark +1.15%

However, the inline cost model estimates the cost to be linear with the number
of distinct targets and the cost of the above switch is just 2 InstrCosts.
The function containing this switch is then inlined about 900 times.
This change use the general way of switch lowering for the inline heuristic. It
etimate the number of case clusters with the suitability check for a jump table
or bit test. Considering the binary search tree built for the clusters, this
change modifies the model to be linear with the size of the balanced binary

Since SystemZ supports vector element load/store instructions, there is no
need for extracts/inserts if a vector load/store gets scalarized.
This patch lets Target specify that it supports such instructions by means of
a new TTI hook that defaults to false.
The use for this is in the LoopVectorizer getScalarizationOverhead() method,
which will with this patch produce a smaller sum for a vector load/store on
SystemZ.

analyses to have a common type which is enforced rather than using
a char object and a `void *` type when used as an identifier.
This has a number of advantages. First, it at least helps some of the
confusion raised in Justin Lebar's code review of why `void *` was being
used everywhere by having a stronger type that connects to documentation
about this.
However, perhaps more importantly, it addresses a serious issue where
the alignment of these pointer-like identifiers was unknown. This made
it hard to use them in pointer-like data structures. We were already
dodging this in dangerous ways to create the "all analyses" entry. In
a subsequent patch I attempted to use these with TinyPtrVector and
things fell apart in a very bad way.
And it isn't just a compile time or type system issue. Worse than that,
the actual alignment of these pointer-like opaque identifiers wasn't
guaranteed to be a useful alignment as they were just characters.
This change introduces a type to use as the "key" object whose address
forms the opaque identifier. This both forces the objects to have proper
alignment, and provides type checking that we get it right everywhere.
It also makes the types somewhat less mysterious than `void *`.
We could go one step further and introduce a truly opaque pointer-like
type to return from the `ID()` static function rather than returning
`AnalysisKey *`, but that didn't seem to be a clear win so this is just
the initial change to get to a reliably typed and aligned object serving
is a key for all the analyses.
Thanks to Richard Smith and Justin Lebar for helping pick plausible
names and avoid making this refactoring many times. =] And thanks to
Sean for the super fast review!
While here, I've tried to move away from the "PassID" nomenclature
entirely as it wasn't really helping and is overloaded with old pass
manager constructs. Now we have IDs for analyses, and key objects whose
address can be used as IDs. Where possible and clear I've shortened this
to just "ID". In a few places I kept "AnalysisID" to make it clear what
was being identified.

Refactored so that a LSRUse owns its fixups, as oppsed to letting the

LSRUses, since the fixups are available directly. The Offsets vector
has been removed since it was no longer necessary.
New target hook isFoldableMemAccessOffset(), which is used during formula
rating.
For SystemZ, this is useful to express that loads and stores with
float or vector types with a big/negative offset should be avoided in
loops. Without this, LSR will generate a lot of negative offsets that
would require extra instructions for loading the address.

This reverts commit r278048. Something changed between the last time I
built this--it takes awhile on my ridiculously slow and ancient
computer--and now that broke this.
llvm-svn: 278053
Summary:
Based on two patches by Michael Mueller.
This is a target attribute that causes a function marked with it to be
emitted as "hotpatchable". This particular mechanism was originally
devised by Microsoft for patching their binaries (which they are
constantly updating to stay ahead of crackers, script kiddies, and other
ne'er-do-wells on the Internet), but is now commonly abused by Windows
programs to hook API functions.
This mechanism is target-specific. For x86, a two-byte no-op instruction
is emitted at the function's entry point; the entry point must be
immediately preceded by 64 (32-bit) or 128 (64-bit) bytes of padding.
This padding is where the patch code is written. The two byte no-op is
then overwritten with a short jump into this code. The no-op is usually
a `movl %edi, %edi` instruction; this is used as a magic value
indicating that this is a hotpatchable function.

Summary:
TargetBaseAlign is no longer required since LSV checks if target allows misaligned accesses.
A constant defining a base alignment is still needed for stack accesses where alignment can be adjusted.
Previous patch (D22936) was reverted because tests were failing. This patch also fixes the cause of those failures:
- x86 failing tests either did not have the right target, or the right alignment.
- NVPTX failing tests did not have the right alignment.
- AMDGPU failing test (merge-stores) should allow vectorization with the given alignment but the target info
considers <3xi32> a non-standard type and gives up early. This patch removes the condition and only checks
for a maximum size allowed and relies on the next condition checking for %4 for correctness.
This should be revisited to include 3xi32 as a MVT type (on arsenm's non-immediate todo list).
Note that checking the sizeInBits for a MVT is undefined (leads to an assertion failure),
so we need to create an EVT, hence the interface change in allowsMisaligned to include the Context.

constant hoisting. It not only takes into account the number of uses and the
cost of expressions in which constants appear, but now also the resulting
integer range of the offsets. Thus, the algorithm maximizes the number of uses
within an integer range that will enable more efficient code generation. On
ARM, for example, this will enable code size optimisations because less
negative offsets will be created. Negative offsets/immediates are not supported
by Thumb1 thus preventing more compact instruction encoding.

This change adds a new hook for estimating the cost of vector extracts followed
by zero- and sign-extensions. The motivating example for this change is the
SMOV and UMOV instructions on AArch64. These instructions move data from vector
to general purpose registers while performing the corresponding extension
(sign-extend for SMOV and zero-extend for UMOV) at the same time. For these
operations, TargetTransformInfo can assume the extensions are free and only
report the cost of the vector extract. The SLP vectorizer has been updated to
make use of the new hook.

Some SIMD implementations are not IEEE-754 compliant, for example ARM's NEON.
This patch teaches the loop vectorizer to only allow transformations of loops
that either contain no floating-point operations or have enough allowance
flags supporting lack of precision (ex. -ffast-math, Darwin).
For that, the target description now has a method which tells us if the
vectorizer is allowed to handle FP math without falling into unsafe
representations, plus a check on every FP instruction in the candidate loop
to check for the safety flags.
This commit makes LLVM behave like GCC with respect to ARM NEON support, but
it stops short of fixing the underlying problem: sub-normals. Neither GCC
nor LLVM have a flag for allowing sub-normal operations. Before this patch,
GCC only allows it using unsafe-math flags and LLVM allows it by default with
no way to turn it off (short of not using NEON at all).
As a first step, we push this change to make it safe and in sync with GCC.
The second step is to discuss a new sub-normal's flag on both communitues
and come up with a common solution. The third step is to improve the FastMath
flags in LLVM to encode sub-normals and use those flags to restrict NEON FP.
Fixes PR16275.

have a native instruction for -NUM. Notably, ARMv7 NEON's vmin has the

rather than 'unsigned' for their costs.
For something like costs in particular there is a natural "negative"
value, that of savings or saved cost. As a consequence, there is a lot
of code that subtracts or creates negative values based on cost, all of
which is prone to awkwardness or bugs when dealing with an unsigned
type. Similarly, we *never* want these values to wrap, as that would
cause Very Bad code generation (likely percieved as an infinite loop as
we try to emit over 2^32 instructions or some such insanity).
All around 'int' seems a much better fit for these basic metrics. I've
added asserts to ensure that at least the TTI interface never returns
negative numbers here. If we ever have a use case for negative numbers,
we can remove this, but this way a bug where someone used '-1' to
produce a 'very large' cost will be caught by the assert.
This passes all tests, and is also UBSan clean.
