I'm recommiting the codegen part of the patch.
The vectorizer part will be send to review again.
Masked Vector Load and Store Intrinsics.
Introduced new target-independent intrinsics in order to support masked vector loads and stores. The loop vectorizer optimizes loops containing conditional memory accesses by generating these intrinsics for existing targets AVX2 and AVX-512. The vectorizer asks the target about availability of masked vector loads and stores.
Added SDNodes for masked operations and lowering patterns for X86 code generator.
Examples:
<16 x i32> @llvm.masked.load.v16i32(i8* %addr, <16 x i32> %passthru, i32 4 /* align */, <16 x i1> %mask)
declare void @llvm.masked.store.v8f64(i8* %addr, <8 x double> %value, i32 4, <8 x i1> %mask)
Scalarizer for other targets (not AVX2/AVX-512) will be done in a separate patch.

AVX2 is available.
According to IACA, the new lowering has a throughput of 8 cycles instead of 13
with the previous one.
Althought this lowering kicks in some SPECs benchmarks, the performance
improvement was within the noise.
Correctness testing has been done for the whole range of uint32_t with the
following program:
uint4 v = (uint4) {0,1,2,3};
uint32_t i;
//Check correctness over entire range for uint4 -> float4 conversion
for( i = 0; i < 1U << (32-2); i++ )
{
float4 t = test(v);
float4 c = correct(v);
if( 0xf != _mm_movemask_ps( t == c ))
{
printf( "Error @ %vx: %vf vs. %vf\n", v, c, t);
return -1;
}
v += 4;
}
Where "correct" is the old lowering and "test" the new one.
The patch adds a test case for the two custom lowering instruction.
It also modifies the vector cost model, which is why cast.ll and uitofp.ll are
modified.
2009-02-26-MachineLICMBug.ll is also modified because we now hoist 7
instructions instead of 4 (3 more constant loads).

This lets us experiment with 512-bit vectorization without passing
force-vector-width manually.
The code generated for a simple integer memset loop is properly vectorized.
Disassembly is still broken for it though :(.

This patch:
1) Improves the cost model for x86 alternate shuffles (originally
added at revision 211339);
2) Teaches the Cost Model Analysis pass how to analyze alternate shuffles.
Alternate shuffles are a special kind of blend; on x86, we can often
easily lowered alternate shuffled into single blend
instruction (depending on the subtarget features).
The existing cost model didn't take into account subtarget features.
Also, it had a couple of "dead" entries for vector types that are never
legal (example: on x86 types v2i32 and v2f32 are not legal; those are
always either promoted or widened to 128-bit vector types).
The new x86 cost model takes into account what target features we have
before returning the shuffle cost (i.e. the number of instructions
after the blend is lowered/expanded).
This patch also teaches the Cost Model Analysis how to identify and analyze
alternate shuffles (i.e. 'SK_Alternate' shufflevector instructions):
- added function 'isAlternateVectorMask';
- added some logic to check if an instruction is a alternate shuffle and, in
case, call the target specific TTI to get the corresponding shuffle cost;
- added a test to verify the cost model analysis on alternate shuffles.
llvm-svn: 212296
This patch adds support to recognize patterns such as fadd,fsub,fadd,fsub.../add,sub,add,sub... and
vectorizes them as vector shuffles if they are profitable.
These patterns of vector shuffle can later be converted to instructions such as addsubpd etc on X86.

This improves the X86 cost model for small constants with large types. Before
this commit we would even hoist trivial constants such as i96 2.
This is related to <rdar://problem/17070936>
llvm-svn: 210504
Currently the X86 backend doesn't support types larger than i128 very well. For
example an i192 multiply will assert in codegen when the 2nd argument is a constant and the constant got hoisted.
This fix changes the cost model to never hoist constants for types larger than
i128. Once the codegen issues have been resolved, the cost model can be updated
to allow also larger types.

The old method used by X86TTI to determine partial-unrolling thresholds was
messy (because it worked by testing target features), and also would not
correctly identify the target CPU if certain target features were disabled.
After some discussions on IRC with Chandler et al., it was decided that the
processor scheduling models were the right containers for this information
(because it is often tied to special uop dispatch-buffer sizes).
This does represent a small functionality change:
- For generic x86-64 (which uses the SB model and, thus, will get some
unrolling).
- For AMD cores (because they still currently use the SB scheduling model)
- For Haswell (based on benchmarking by Louis Gerbarg, it was decided to bump
the default threshold to 50; we're working on a test case for this).
Otherwise, nothing has changed for any other targets. The logic, however, has
been moved into BasicTTI, so other targets may now also opt-in to this
functionality simply by setting LoopMicroOpBufferSize in their processor
model definitions.
llvm-svn: 208289
The loop stream detector (LSD) on modern Intel cores, which optimizes the
execution of small loops, has limits on the number of taken branches in
addition to uop-count limits (modern AMD cores have similar limits).
Unfortunately, at the IR level, estimating the number of branches that will be
taken is difficult. For one thing, it strongly depends on later passes (block
placement, etc.). The original implementation took a conservative approach and
limited the maximal BB DFS depth of the loop. However, fairly-extensive
benchmarking by several of us has revealed that this is the wrong approach. In
fact, there are zero known cases where the branch limit prevents a detrimental
unrolling (but plenty of cases where it does prevent beneficial unrolling).
While we could improve the current branch counting logic by incorporating
branch probabilities, this further complication seems unjustified without a
motivating regression. Instead, unless and until a regression appears, the
branch counting will be removed.

There is no need to check if we want to hoist the immediate value of an
shift instruction. Simply return TCC_Free right away.
This change is like r206101, but for X86.

This provides an initial implementation of getUnrollingPreferences for x86.
getUnrollingPreferences is used by the generic (concatenation) unroller, which
is distinct from the unrolling done by the loop vectorizer. Many modern x86
cores have some kind of uop cache and loop-stream detector (LSD) used to
efficiently dispatch small loops, and taking full advantage of this requires
unrolling small loops (small here means 10s of uops).
These caches also have limits on the number of taken branches in the loop, and
so we also cap the loop unrolling factor based on the maximum "depth" of the
loop. This is currently calculated with a partial DFS traversal (partial
because it will stop early if the path length grows too much). This is still an
approximation, and one that is both conservative (because it does not account
for branches eliminated via block placement) and optimistic (because it is only
recording the maximum depth over minimum paths). Nevertheless, because the
loops that fit in these uop caches are so small, it is not clear how much the
details matter.
The original set of patches posted for review produced the following test-suite
performance results (from the TSVC benchmark) at that time:
ControlLoops-dbl - 13% speedup
ControlLoops-flt - 15% speedup
Reductions-dbl - 7.5% speedup
llvm-svn: 205348
There is no direct AVX instruction to convert to unsigned. I have some ideas
how we may be able to do this with three vector instructions but the current
backend just bails on this to get it scalarized.
See the comment why we need to adjust the cost returned by BasicTTI.
The test is a bit roundabout (and checks assembly rather than bit code) because
I'd like it to work even if at some point we could vectorize this conversion.

If getElementPtr uses a constant as base pointer, then make the constant opaque.
This prevents constant folding it with the offset. The offset can usually be
encoded in the load/store instruction itself and the base address doesn't have
to be rematerialized several times.

The cost for the first four stackmap operands was always TCC_Free.
This is only true for the first two operands. All other operands
are TCC_Free if they are within 64bit.

Extend the target hook to take also the operand index into account when
calculating the cost of the constant materialization.

the stack of the analysis group because they are all immutable passes.
This is made clear by Craig's recent work to use override
systematically -- we weren't overriding anything for 'finalizePass'
because there is no such thing.
This is kind of a lame restriction on the API -- we can no longer push
and pop things, we just set up the stack and run. However, I'm not
invested in building some better solution on top of the existing
(terrifying) immutable pass and legacy pass manager.

'OK_NonUniformConstValue' to identify operands which are constants but
not constant splats.
The cost model now allows returning 'OK_NonUniformConstValue'
for non splat operands that are instances of ConstantVector or
ConstantDataVector.
With this change, targets are now able to compute different costs
for instructions with non-uniform constant operands.
For example, On X86 the cost of a vector shift may vary depending on whether
the second operand is a uniform or non-uniform constant.
This patch applies the following changes:
- The cost model computation now takes into account non-uniform constants;
- The cost of vector shift instructions has been improved in
X86TargetTransformInfo analysis pass;
- BBVectorize, SLPVectorizer and LoopVectorize now know how to distinguish
between non-uniform and uniform constant operands.
Added a new test to verify that the output of opt
'-cost-model -analyze' is valid in the following configurations: SSE2,
SSE4.1, AVX, AVX2.

The most important part of this is probably adding any cost at all for
operations like zext <8 x i8> to <8 x i32>. Before they were being
recorded as extremely costly (24, I believe) which made LLVM fall back
on a 4-wide vectorisation of a loop.
It also rebalances the values for sext, zext and trunc. Lacking any
other sane metric that might work across CPU microarchitectures I went
for instructions. This seems to be in reasonable accord with the rest
of the table (sitofp, ...) though no doubt at least one value is
sub-optimal for some bizarre reason.
Finally, separate AVX and AVX2 values are provided where appropriate.
The CodeGen is quite different in many cases.

This commit caused -Woverloaded-virtual warnings. The two new
TargetTransformInfo::getIntImmCost functions were only added to the superclass,
and to the X86 subclass. The other targets were not updated, and the
warning highlighted this by pointing out that e.g. ARMTTI::getIntImmCost was
hiding the two new getIntImmCost variants.
We could pacify the warning by adding "using TargetTransformInfo::getIntImmCost"
to the various subclasses, or turning it off, but I suspect that it's wrong to
leave the functions unimplemnted in those targets. The default implementations
return TCC_Free, which I don't think is right e.g. for ARM.

Retry commit r200022 with a fix for the build bot errors. Constant expressions
have (unlike instructions) module scope use lists and therefore may have users
in different functions. The fix is to simply ignore these out-of-function uses.
llvm-svn: 200034
This pass identifies expensive constants to hoist and coalesces them to
better prepare it for SelectionDAG-based code generation. This works around the
limitations of the basic-block-at-a-time approach.
First it scans all instructions for integer constants and calculates its
cost. If the constant can be folded into the instruction (the cost is
TCC_Free) or the cost is just a simple operation (TCC_BASIC), then we don't
consider it expensive and leave it alone. This is the default behavior and
the default implementation of getIntImmCost will always return TCC_Free.
If the cost is more than TCC_BASIC, then the integer constant can't be folded
into the instruction and it might be beneficial to hoist the constant.
Similar constants are coalesced to reduce register pressure and
materialization code.
When a constant is hoisted, it is also hidden behind a bitcast to force it to
be live-out of the basic block. Otherwise the constant would be just
duplicated and each basic block would have its own copy in the SelectionDAG.
The SelectionDAG recognizes such constants as opaque and doesn't perform
certain transformations on them, which would create a new expensive constant.
This optimization is only applied to integer constants in instructions and
simple (this means not nested) constant cast experessions. For example:
%0 = load i64* inttoptr (i64 big_constant to i64*)
