If a function is known to return one of its arguments, we can use that in order
to compute known bits of the return value.

This actually uncovered a surprisingly large chain of ultimately unused
TLI args.
From what I can gather, this argument is a remnant of when
isKnownNonNull would look at the TLI directly.
The current approach seems to be that InferFunctionAttrs runs early in
the pipeline and uses TLI to annotate the TLI-dependent non-null
information as return attributes.
This also removes the dependence of functionattrs on TLI altogether.

This is breaking an optimizaton remark test in clang. I've identified a couple fixes for that, but want to understand it better before I commit to anything.

If a operation for a recurrence is an addition with no signed wrap and both input sign bits are 0, then the result sign bit must also be 0. Similar for the negative case.
I found this deficiency while playing around with a loop in the x86 backend that contained a signed division that could be optimized into an unsigned division if we could prove both inputs were positive. One of them being the loop induction variable. With this patch we can perform the conversion for this case. One of the test cases here is a contrived variation of the loop I was looking at.

This was noted in http://reviews.llvm.org/D21610 . The previous code
predated the use of APInt ( http://reviews.llvm.org/rL47654 ), so it
had to account for the fixed width of uint64_t.
Now that we're using the variable width APInt, we can remove some
complexity.

This is similar to the computeKnownBits improvement in rL268479.
There's probably more we can do for vector logic instructions, but
this should let us see non-splat constant masking ops that can
become vector selects instead of and/andn/or sequences.

This change teaches llvm::isGuaranteedToTransferExecutionToSuccessor
that calls to @llvm.assume always terminate. Most other relevant
intrinsics should be covered by the "CS.onlyReadsMemory() ||
CS.onlyAccessesArgMemory()" bit but we were missing @llvm.assumes
because we state that it clobbers memory.
Added an LICM test case, but this change is not specific to LICM.
llvm-svn: 272703
Summary:
Make isGuaranteedToExecute use the
isGuaranteedToTransferExecutionToSuccessor helper, and make that helper
a bit more accurate.
There's a potential performance impact here from assuming that arbitrary
calls might not return. This probably has little impact on loads and
stores to a pointer because most things alias analysis can reason about
are dereferenceable anyway. The other impacts, like less aggressive
hoisting of sdiv by a variable and less aggressive hoisting around
volatile memory operations, are unlikely to matter for real code.
This also impacts SCEV, which uses the same helper. It's a minor
improvement there because we can tell that, for example, memcpy always
returns normally. Strictly speaking, it's also introducing
a bug, but it's not any worse than everywhere else we assume readonly
functions terminate.

Similar in spirit to D20497 :
If all elements of a constant vector are known non-zero, then we can say that the
whole vector is known non-zero.
It seems like we could extend this to FP scalar/vector too, but isKnownNonZero()
says it only works for integers and pointers for now.

We assumed that ConstantVectors would be rather uninteresting from the
perspective of analysis. However, this is not the case due to a quirk
of how LLVM handles vectors of i1. Vectors of i1 are not
ConstantDataVectors like vectors of i8, i16, i32 or i64 because i1's
SizeInBits differs from it's StoreSizeInBytes. This leads to it being
categorized as a ConstantVector instead of a ConstantDataVector.
Instead, treat ConstantVector more uniformly.
This fixes PR27591.

matchSelectPattern attempts to see through casts which mask min/max
patterns from being more obvious. Under certain circumstances, it would
misidentify a sequence of instructions as a min/max because it assumed
that folding casts would preserve the result. This is not the case for
floating point <-> integer casts.
This fixes PR27575.

Summary:
(... while still not using a PostDomTree)
The way we use isKnownNotFullPoison from SCEV today, the new CFG walking
logic will not trigger for any realistic cases -- it will kick in only
for situations where we could have merged the contiguous basic blocks
anyway[0], since the poison generating instruction dominates all of its
non-PHI uses (which are the only uses we consider right now).
However, having this change in place will allow a later bugfix to break
fewer llvm-lit tests.

successor and A is B's only predecessor.

No matter what value you OR in to A, the result of (or A, B) is going to be UGE A. When A and B are positive, it's SGE too. If A is negative, OR'ing a value into it can't make it positive, but can increase its value closer to -1, therefore (or A, B) is SGE A. Working through all possible combinations produces this truth table:
```
A is
+, -, +/-
F F F + B is
T F ? -
? F ? +/-
```
The related optimizations are flipping the 'slt' for 'sge' which always NOTs the result (if the result is known), and swapping the LHS and RHS while swapping the comparison predicate.
There are more idioms left to implement (aren't there always!) but I've stopped here because any more would risk becoming unreasonable for reviewers.

Summary:
Fixes PR26774.
If you're aware of the issue, feel free to skip the "Motivation"
section and jump directly to "This patch".
Motivation:
I define "refinement" as discarding behaviors from a program that the
optimizer has license to discard. So transforming:
```
void f(unsigned x) {
unsigned t = 5 / x;
(void)t;
}
```
to
```
void f(unsigned x) { }
```
is refinement, since the behavior went from "if x == 0 then undefined
else nothing" to "nothing" (the optimizer has license to discard
undefined behavior).
Refinement is a fundamental aspect of many mid-level optimizations done
by LLVM. For instance, transforming `x == (x + 1)` to `false` also
involves refinement since the expression's value went from "if x is
`undef` then { `true` or `false` } else { `false` }" to "`false`" (by
definition, the optimizer has license to fold `undef` to any non-`undef`
value).
Unfortunately, refinement implies that the optimizer cannot assume
that the implementation of a function it can see has all of the
behavior an unoptimized or a differently optimized version of the same
function can have. This is a problem for functions with comdat
linkage, where a function can be replaced by an unoptimized or a
differently optimized version of the same source level function.
For instance, FunctionAttrs cannot assume a comdat function is
actually `readnone` even if it does not have any loads or stores in
it; since there may have been loads and stores in the "original
function" that were refined out in the currently visible variant, and
at the link step the linker may in fact choose an implementation with
a load or a store. As an example, consider a function that does two
atomic loads from the same memory location, and writes to memory only
if the two values are not equal. The optimizer is allowed to refine
this function by first CSE'ing the two loads, and the folding the
comparision to always report that the two values are equal. Such a
refined variant will look like it is `readonly`. However, the
unoptimized version of the function can still write to memory (since
the two loads //can// result in different values), and selecting the
unoptimized version at link time will retroactively invalidate
transforms we may have done under the assumption that the function
does not write to memory.
Note: this is not just a problem with atomics or with linking
differently optimized object files. See PR26774 for more realistic
examples that involved neither.
This patch:
This change introduces a new set of linkage types, predicated as
`GlobalValue::mayBeDerefined` that returns true if the linkage type
allows a function to be replaced by a differently optimized variant at
link time. It then changes a set of IPO passes to bail out if they see
such a function.

Floating point intrinsics in LLVM are generally not speculatively
executed, since most of them are defined to behave the same as libm
functions, which set errno.
However, the only error that can happen when executing ceil, floor,
nearbyint, rint and round libm functions per POSIX.1-2001 is -ERANGE,
and that requires the maximum value of the exponent to be smaller
than the number of mantissa bits, which is not the case with any of
the floating point types supported by LLVM.
The trunc and copysign functions never set errno per per POSIX.1-2001.

This experiment was originally about trying to use facts implied dominating conditions to infer more precise known bits. While the compile time was found to be acceptable on several large code bases, we never found sufficiently profitable examples to justify turning on the code by default. Given this, it's time to abandon the experiment.
Several folks have commented that they've found this useful for experimentation, but nothing has come of those experiments. Given how easy the patch is to apply, there's no reason to leave the code in tree.
For anyone interested in further investigation in this area, I recommend finding the summary email I sent on one of the original review threads. In particular, I now believe the use-list based approach is strictly worse than the dom-tree-walking approach.
