This introduces the basic functionality to support "token types".
The motivation stems from the need to perform operations on a Value
whose provenance cannot be obscured.
There are several applications for such a type but my immediate
motivation stems from WinEH. Our personality routine enforces a
single-entry - single-exit regime for cleanups. After several rounds of
optimizations, we may be left with a terminator whose "cleanup-entry
block" is not entirely clear because control flow has merged two
cleanups together. We have experimented with using labels as operands
inside of instructions which are not terminators to indicate where we
came from but found that LLVM does not expect such exotic uses of
BasicBlocks.
Instead, we can use this new type to clearly associate the "entry point"
and "exit point" of our cleanup. This is done by having the cleanuppad
yield a Token and consuming it at the cleanupret.
The token type makes it impossible to obscure or otherwise hide the
Value, making it trivial to track the relationship between the two
points.
What is the burden to the optimizer? Well, it turns out we have already
paid down this cost by accepting that there are certain calls that we
are not permitted to duplicate, optimizations have to watch out for
such instructions anyway. There are additional places in the optimizer
that we will probably have to update but early examination has given me
the impression that this will not be heroic.

I've used forward declarations and reorderd the source code some to make
this reasonably clean and keep as much of the code as possible in the
source file, including all the stratified set details. Just the basic AA
interface and the create function are in the header file, and the header
file is now included into the relevant locations.

Summary:
This patch implements my promised optimization to reunites certain sexts from
operands after we extract the constant offset. See the header comment of
reuniteExts for its motivation.
One key building block that enables this optimization is Bjarke's poison value
analysis (D11212). That helps to prove "a +nsw b" can't overflow.

AliasAnalysis in LoopIdiomRecognize.
The previous commit to LIR, r244879, exposed some scary bug in the loop
pass pipeline with an assert failure that showed up on several bots.
This patch got reverted as part of getting that revision reverted, but
they're actually independent and unrelated. This patch has no functional
change and should be completely safe. It is also useful for my current
work on the AA infrastructure.

If <src> is non-zero we can safely set the flag to true, and this

We used to be over-conservative about preserving inbounds. Actually, the second
GEP (which applies the constant offset) can inherit the inbounds attribute of
the original GEP, because the resultant pointer is equivalent to that of the
original GEP. For example,
x = GEP inbounds a, i+5
=>
y = GEP a, i // inbounds removed
x = GEP inbounds y, 5 // inbounds preserved

DeadStoreElimination does eliminate a store if it stores a value which was loaded from the same memory location.
So far this worked only if the store is in the same block as the load.
Now we can also handle stores which are in a different block than the load.
Example:
define i32 @test(i1, i32*) {
entry:
%l2 = load i32, i32* %1, align 4
br i1 %0, label %bb1, label %bb2
bb1:
br label %bb3
bb2:
; This store is redundant
store i32 %l2, i32* %1, align 4
br label %bb3
bb3:
ret i32 0
}
Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D11854
llvm-svn: 244901
Consider this code:
BB:
%i = phi i32 [ 0, %if.then ], [ %c, %if.else ]
%add = add nsw i32 %i, %b
...
In this common case the add can be moved to the %if.else basic block, because
adding zero is an identity operation. If we go though %if.then branch it's
always a win, because add is not executed; if not, the number of instructions
stays the same.
This pattern applies also to other instructions like sub, shl, shr, ashr | 0,
mul, sdiv, div | 1.

Most SSE/AVX (non-constant) vector shift instructions only use the lower 64-bits of the 128-bit shift amount vector operand, this patch calls SimplifyDemandedVectorElts to optimize for this.
I had to refactor some of my recent InstCombiner work on the vector shifts to avoid quite a bit of duplicate code, it means that SimplifyX86immshift now (re)decodes the type of shift.

Summary: This patch moves the check of OptimizeForSize before traversing over all basic blocks in current loop. If OptimizeForSize is set to true, no non-trivial unswitch is ever allowed. Therefore, the early exit will help reduce compilation time. This patch should be NFC.

code into methods on LoopIdiomRecognize.
This simplifies the code somewhat and also makes it much easier to move
the analyses around. Ultimately, the separate class wasn't providing
significant value over methods -- it contained the precondition basic
block and the current loop. The current loop is already available and
the precondition block wasn't needed everywhere and is easy to pass
around.
In several cases I just moved things to be static functions because they
already accepted most of their inputs as arguments.
This doesn't fix the way we manage analyses yet, that will be the next
patch, but it already makes the code over 50 lines shorter.
No functionality changed.

complexity.
There is only one function that was called from multiple locations, and
that was 'getBranch' which has a reasonable one-line spelling already:
dyn_cast<BranchInst>(BB->getTerminator). We could make this shorter, but
it doesn't seem to add much value. Instead, we should avoid calling it
so many times on the same basic blocks, but that will be in a subsequent
patch.
The other functions are only called in one location, so inline them
there, and take advantage of this to use direct early exit and reduce
indentation. This makes it much more clear what is being tested for, and
in fact makes it clear now to me that there are simpler ways to do this
work. However, this patch just does the mechanical inlining. I'll clean
up the functionality of the code to leverage loop simplified form more
effectively in a follow-up.
Despite lots of early line breaks due to early-exit, this is still
shorter than it was before.

a significant code cleanup here.
The handling of analyses in this pass is overly complex and can be
simplified significantly, but the right way to do that is to simplify
all of the code not just the analyses, and that'll require pretty
extensive edits that would be noisy with formatting changes mixed into
them.

To be clear: this is an *optimization* not a correctness change.
CodeGenPrep likes to duplicate icmps feeding branch instructions to take advantage of x86's ability to fuze many comparison/branch patterns into a single micro-op and to reduce the need for materializing i1s into general registers. PlaceSafepoints likes to place safepoint polls right at the end of basic blocks (immediately before terminators) when inserting entry and backedge safepoints. These two heuristics interact in a somewhat unfortunate way where the branch terminating the original block will be controlled by a condition driven by unrelocated pointers. This forces the register allocator to keep both the relocated and unrelocated values of the pointers feeding the icmp alive over the safepoint poll.
One simple fix would have been to just adjust PlaceSafepoints to move one back in the basic block, but you can reach similar cases as a result of LICM or other hoisting passes. As a result, doing a post insertion fixup seems to be more robust.
I considered doing this in CodeGenPrep itself, but having to update the live sets of already rewritten safepoints gets complicated fast. In particular, you can't just use def/use information because by moving the icmp, we're extending the live range of it's inputs potentially.
Instead, this patch teaches RewriteStatepointsForGC to make the required adjustments before making the relocations explicit in the IR. This change really highlights the fact that RSForGC is a CodeGenPrep-like pass which is performing target specific lowering. In the long run, we may even want to combine the two though this would require a lot more smarts to be integrated into RSForGC first. We currently rely on being able to run a set of cleanup passes post rewriting because the IR RSForGC generates is pretty damn ugly.

When rewriting the IR such that base pointers are available for every live pointer, we potentially need to duplicate instructions to propagate the base. The original code had only handled PHI and Select under the belief those were the only instructions which would need duplicated. When I added support for vector instructions, I'd added a collection of hacks for ExtractElement which caught most of the common cases. Of course, I then found the one test case my hacks couldn't cover. :)
This change removes all of the early hacks for extract element. By defining extractelement as a BDV (rather than trying to look through it), we can extend the rewriting algorithm to duplicate the extract as needed. Note that a couple of peephole optimizations were left in for the moment, because while we now handle extractelement as a first class citizen, we're not yet handling insertelement. That change will follow in the near future.

This was particularly frustrating because there was a really wide
mixture of using a member variable and re-extracting it from the AA that
happened to be around. I think the result is much more clear.
I've also deleted all of the pointless null checks and used references
across the APIs where I could to make it explicit that this cannot be
null in a useful fashion.

r243382 changed the behavior to always require a set of memchecks to be

As discussed in D11886, this patch moves the SSE/AVX vector blend folding to instcombiner from PerformINTRINSIC_WO_CHAINCombine (which allows us to remove this completely).
InstCombiner already had partial support for this, I just had to add support for zero (ConstantAggregateZero) masks and also the case where both selection inputs were the same (allowing us to ignore the mask).
I also moved all the relevant combine tests into InstCombine/blend_x86.ll

Summary: LowerSwitch crashed with the attached test case after deleting the default block. This happened because the current implementation of deleting dead blocks is wrong. After the default block being deleted, it contains no instruction or terminator, and it should no be traversed anymore. However, since the iterator is advanced before processSwitchInst() function is executed, the block advanced to could be deleted inside processSwitchInst(). The deleted block would then be visited next and crash dyn_cast<SwitchInst>(Cur->getTerminator()) because Cur->getTerminator() returns a nullptr. This patch fixes this problem by recording dead default blocks into a list, and delete them after all processSwitchInst() has been done. It still possible to visit dead default blocks and waste time process them. But it is a compile time issue, and I plan to have another patch to add support to skip dead blocks.

The select pattern recognition in ValueTracking (as used by InstCombine
and SelectionDAGBuilder) only knew about integer patterns. This teaches
it about minimum and maximum operations.
matchSelectPattern() has been extended to return a struct containing the
existing Flavor and a new enum defining the pattern's behavior when
given one NaN operand.
C minnum() is defined to return the non-NaN operand in this case, but
the idiomatic C "a < b ? a : b" would return the NaN operand.
ARM and AArch64 at least have different instructions for these different cases.
