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.

Various value handles needed to be copy constructible and copy
assignable (mostly for their use in DenseMap). But to avoid an API that
might allow accidental slicing, make these members protected in the base
class and make derived classes final (the special members become
implicitly public there - but disallowing further derived classes that
might be sliced to the intermediate type).
Might be worth having a warning a bit like -Wnon-virtual-dtor that
catches public move/copy assign/ctors in classes with virtual functions.
(suppressable in the same way - by making them protected in the base,
and making the derived classes final) Could be fancier and only diagnose
them when they're actually called, potentially.
Also allow a few default implementations where custom implementations
(especially with non-standard return types) were implemented.

accurately describe what is being tracked.
While these two enums do track mod/ref information and aliasing
information, they don't represent the exact same things as either the
mod/ref enums or the alias result enum in AA. They're definitions are
dominated by the structure of their lattice and the bit's various
semantics. This patch just calls them what they are and tries to spell
out usefully distinct names for these things.
This will clear the path for using a raw unscoped enum to represent some
of these concepts across LLVM's analysis library.
No functionality changed here.

AliasSetTracker::addUnknown may create an AliasSet devoid of pointers
just to contain an instruction if no suitable AliasSet already exists.
It will then AliasSet::addUnknownInst and we will be done.
However, it's possible for addUnknown to choose an existing AliasSet to
addUnknownInst.
If this were to occur, we are in a bit of a pickle: removing pointers
from the AliasSet can cause the entire AliasSet to become destroyed,
taking our unknown instructions out with them.
Instead, keep track whether or not our AliasSet has any unknown
instructions.
This fixes PR21582.

LoadCombine can be smarter about aborting when a writing instruction is
encountered, instead of aborting upon encountering any writing instruction, use
an AliasSetTracker, and only abort when encountering some write that might
alias with the loads that could potentially be combined.
This was originally motivated by comments made (and a test case provided) by
David Majnemer in response to PR21448. It turned out that LoadCombine was not
responsible for that PR, but LoadCombine should also be improved so that
unrelated stores (and @llvm.assume) don't interrupt load combining.

In order to enable the preservation of noalias function parameter information
after inlining, and the representation of block-level __restrict__ pointer
information (etc.), additional kinds of aliasing metadata will be introduced.
This metadata needs to be carried around in AliasAnalysis::Location objects
(and MMOs at the SDAG level), and so we need to generalize the current scheme
(which is hard-coded to just one TBAA MDNode*).
This commit introduces only the necessary refactoring to allow for the
introduction of other aliasing metadata types, but does not actually introduce
any (that will come in a follow-up commit). What it does introduce is a new
AAMDNodes structure to hold all of the aliasing metadata nodes associated with
a particular memory-accessing instruction, and uses that structure instead of
the raw MDNode* in AliasAnalysis::Location, etc.
No functionality change intended.

Move the test for this class into the IR unittests as well.
This uncovers that ValueMap too is in the IR library. Ironically, the
unittest for ValueMap is useless in the Support library (honestly, so
was the ValueHandle test) and so it already lives in the IR unittests.
Mmmm, tasty layering.

AKA: Recompile *ALL* the source code!
This one went much better. No manual edits here. I spot-checked for
silliness and grep-checked for really broken edits and everything seemed
good. It all still compiles. Yell if you see something that looks goofy.

These query functions are safe for external use and, furthermore,
are the only way to make queries against the "unknown instructions" array.
BBVectorize will use these functions.

assertingvh so we get a violent explosion if the pointer dangles.
2) Fix AliasSetTracker::deleteValue to remove call sites with
by-pointer comparisons instead of by-alias queries. Using
findAliasSetForCallSite can cause alias sets to get merged
when they shouldn't, and can also miss alias sets when the
call is readonly.
#2 fixes PR6889, which only repros with a .c file :(

isPodLike type trait. This is a generally useful type trait for
more than just DenseMap, and we really care about whether something
acts like a pod, not whether it really is a pod.

a new ilist_node class, and remove them. Unlike alist_node,
ilist_node doesn't attempt to manage storage itself, so it avoids
the associated problems, including being opaque in gdb.
Adjust the Recycler class so that it doesn't depend on alist_node.
Also, change it to use explicit Size and Align parameters, allowing
it to work when the largest-sized node doesn't have the greatest
alignment requirement.
Change MachineInstr's MachineMemOperand list from a pool-backed
alist to a std::list for now.
